APPLICANT:
City of Fort Collins
DISCUSSION AGENDA
3. Landmark Apartments Expansion
PROJECT
DESCRIPTION:
This development plan proposes 68 apartment units (139 bedrooms)
in 5 buildings on a 3.7-acre site in the SE quadrant of the Prospect
Road/Shields Street intersection. The site is a panhandle-shaped
infill property located between Landmark Apartments and the historic
Sheely Neighborhood. The northern portion of the property is the
“handle” of the pan and abuts Prospect Road with 110 feet of
frontage. The property slopes down significantly from Prospect
Road to the 95-foot-wide Canal Importation Basin stormwater
channel which bisects the southern portion of the property, dividing
the property into two main parts. Hobbit Street terminates at the
west property line near the southwest corner of the property.
The owner of the subject property is the owner of the existing
Landmark Apartments to the west, and the proposed plan is
presented as an integrated addition to the existing complex, with
shared access to all facilities and grounds. 122 vehicle spaces are
proposed, slightly exceeding the requirement for 120 spaces. A
Modification of a standard is requested to the standard requirement
that residences be placed directly in relation to street sidewalks.
The project provides a main walkway spine along parking lot drives
in lieu of extending a street into the site.

4. Gateway at Prospect, Addition of Permitted Use and Overall Development Plan 160001
PROJECT
DESCRIPTION
FOR APU:
This is a request for an Addition of Permitted Use to add Multi-
Family Dwellings in Phase One of the Gateway at Prospect
Amended Overall Development Plan (Parcel J). Specifically, the
request includes addressing the scale of Multi-Family buildings
through the criteria of three standards:
• Allowing greater than 12 units per building;
• Allowing buildings exceeding 14,000 square feet in size;
• Allowing a single phase that exceeds 12 dwelling units
per gross acre in the L-M-N, Low Density Mixed-Use
zone district.
Planning and Zoning Board Page 3 November 10, 2016
PROJECT
DESCRIPTION
FOR ODP:
Multi-Family Dwellings are permitted in the L-M-N zone but capped
at the aforementioned parameters. Phase One of the O.D.P.
consists of 20.8 acres that are divided between 12.4 acres zoned L-
M-N and 8.4 acres zoned E, Employment. Multi-family is permitted
in both zones but only the L-M-N portion has the aforementioned
maximum parameters.
As required, the request is made in conjunction with the 177-acre
Amended O.D.P. which includes the vacant land located generally at
the northwest quadrant of I-25 and East Prospect Road. The current
O.D.P. is known as Interstate Lands Overall Development Plan
which was originally approved in 2004. The Amended O.D.P. is
called Gateway at Prospect. The site is zoned, from east to west, C-
G, General Commercial, E, Employment, L-M-N, Low Density Mixed-
Use Neighborhood, and U-E, Urban Estate. The consideration of
the Addition of Permitted Use on Parcel J must precede the
consideration of the Amended Overall Development Plan.
This is a request for an amended Overall Development Plan for the
vacant land located generally at the northwest quadrant of I-25 and
East Prospect Road. This area includes 177 acres and was formerly
known as Interstate Lands O.D.P. The site is zoned, from east to
west, C-G, General Commercial, E, Employment, L-M-N, Low
Density Mixed-Use Neighborhood, and U-E, Urban Estate.
Proposed land uses include a mix of permitted uses allowed on a
per zone district basis. The O.D.P. also includes 12.4 acres zoned
L-M-N (Parcel J) that are the subject of a request for an Addition of
Permitted Use to allow Multi-Family Dwellings that exceed three
design metrics. This request must be considered in conjunction
with, but prior to, this Amended O.D.P.
The purpose of an Overall Development Plan is to establish general
planning and development control parameters for projects that will
be developed in phases, with multiple submittals, while allowing
sufficient flexibility to permit detailed planning in subsequent
submittals. There is no established vested right with an O.D.P.

6. Shields & Elizabeth Underpass Voluntary Site Plan Advisory Review
PROJECT
DESCRIPTION:
This is a voluntary Site Plan Advisory Review (SPAR) for the
proposed underpass at the intersection of South Shields & West
Elizabeth Street. The project is located along the south side of the
intersection at Shields and Elizabeth Street and will provide an
underground connection below Shields Street for bicycles and
pedestrians. Changes to surrounding street sidewalks and
pedestrian crossings are also proposed, as well as modifications to
improve vehicular flow and accommodate the underpass in the
vicinity of the intersection. Approximately 1/3 of the project is located
on University property east of the intersection, with the remainder
within public right-of-way to be dedicated to the City. The area to be
dedicated is within the Community Commercial zone district. The
proposal represents a joint planning effort by CSU and City staff.
Construction is anticipated to be completed in 2017.
