(b) Accessory Buildings With Habitable Space. An accessory building
with water and/or sewer service shall be considered as containing
habitable space. "Habitable space" does not necessarily mean a dwelling
unit, but is space that is intended to eventually serve as indoor, habitable
space for human occupancy. Accessory building applications must
include the applicant's declaration as to whether or not the space is
habitable. If water and/or sewer services are provided to the building, it
shall be considered as containing habitable space. If an applicant declares
that a space is not intended to be habitable, no water and/or sewer
connections will be allowed to the building, and less restrictive bulk and
massing requirements are allowed as provided below.
(c) Additional Review Criteria for Carriage Houses and Accessory
Buildings With Habitable Space. The following additional standards
are intended to ensure that the design and operating characteristics of the
carriage house or other accessory building with habitable space are
compatible with the character of the surrounding neighborhood and shall
apply to the review of all applications for approval of a carriage house or
accessory building containing habitable space:
1. The site plan shall provide a separate yard area containing at least
one hundred twenty (120) square feet to serve both the carriage house
and the existing principal dwelling. Such yard area shall be at least
ten (10) feet in its smallest dimension, and must provide privacy and
screening for abutting properties.
2. To the extent reasonably feasible, decks, entry doors, major entry
access stairs or major windows shall face the existing principal
building or the alley (if the lots front the alley). To the extent
reasonably feasible, windows that overlook an abutting side or rear
yard shall be minimized.
3. Buildings, structures, open spaces and other features of the site plan
shall be oriented and located such that they maintain natural
resources, including existing significant trees and shrubs, to the
extent reasonably feasible.
(4) Landscape/Hardscape Material. A maximum of forty (40) percent of the front
yard of a lot may be covered with inorganic material such as asphalt or cement
concrete, paving stone, flagstone, rock or gravel.
(5) Site Design. In the N-C-B Neighborhood Conservation Buffer District,
permanent open off-street parking areas shall not be located any closer to a
public street right-of-way than the distance by which the principal building is
set back from the street right-of-way. This provision shall not be construed to
preclude temporary parking in driveways.

(6) Access. Whenever a lot has frontage along an alley, any new off-street parking
area located on such lot must obtain access from such adjoining alley;
provided, however, that such alley access shall not be required when a new
detached garage is proposed to be accessed from an existing driveway that has
a curbcut along a public street, or when alley access is determined by the City
Engineer to be a hazard to persons or vehicles.
(7) Subdividing of Existing Lots. No existing lot may be further subdivided in such
manner as to create a new lot in the rear portion of the existing lot. This
regulation shall not apply to corner lots.

DOWNTOWN DISTRICT (D)
(A) Purpose. The Downtown District is intended to provide a concentration of retail,
civic, employment and cultural uses in addition to complementary uses such as
hotels, entertainment and housing, located along the backdrop of the Poudre River
Corridor. It is divided into nine (9) subdistricts as depicted on Figure _. The
development standards for the Downtown District are intended to encourage a mix
of activity in the area while providing for high quality development that maintains
a sense of history, human scale and pedestrian-oriented character.

(B) Street Frontage Types Three types of street frontages have evolved in the
Downtown District shaping public space and building placement. Applicable street
frontage types are depicted on Figure ____.
1. Storefront – Found primarily within the Historic Core, and along Laurel Street,
buildings abut a wide sidewalk. Retail and commercial uses predominate the
ground floor with a high degree of visual interest and transparency into shops
and restaurants.
2. Mixed Use – Found adjacent the Historic Core Subdistrict on streets such as
Mason, this street character is a hybrid and transition between the Storefront
and Green Edge frontage types. Buildings are set a little farther back from the
street than along Storefront streets, often with small landscape beds separating
the building from the sidewalk. There is significantly less ground floor retail
space, but buildings still address the sidewalk in a similar way.
3. Green Edge – Found primarily in the subdistricts away from the Historic Core,
this frontage type is best recognized for generous parkway widths and
landscaped setbacks between the sidewalk and the building. Ground floor uses
comprise mostly residential and office, with a scattering of other commercial
uses, often in much larger buildings than are found in the Historic Core
Subdistrict.

(1) Building Height Limits. The maximum height of buildings within the
Downtown District shall be as shown on the Building Heights Map (Figure _).
Figure _
Building Heights Map
(2) Measurement of Height Limits. The maximum height limits are intended to
convey a scale of building rather than an exact point or line. In the case of
sloped roofs, building height shall be measured to the mean height between the
ITEM 5, ATTACHMENT 2

eave and ridge. The maximum height limits are not intended to hinder
architectural roof features such as sloped roofs with dormers, penthouses,
chimneys, towers, shaped cornices or parapets, or other design features that
exceed the numerical limits but do not substantially increase bulk and mass.
Lofts or penthouses projecting above the limits shall not exceed one-third (1/3)
of the floor area of the floor below and shall be set back from any roof edge
along a street, by a distance equal to or greater than the height of the loft or
penthouse structure. See Figure _.
Figure _
Measurement of Height Limits
(3) Upper Story Stepbacks.
(a) Historic Core, Innovation and North Mason Stepbacks: The fourth
story of a building shall be set back an average of at least ten feet along
all street frontages. Stepbacks may be continuous or may vary with up to
20 feet counting towards the calculation of the required ten foot average.
(b) Canyon Avenue, Civic and Campus North Stepbacks: The fifth story
of a building shall be set back an average of at least ten feet along all
street frontages. Stepbacks may be continuous or may vary with up to 20
feet calculating towards the calculation of the required ten foot average.
Stepbacks may occur at the 2
nd
to 5
th
stories.
(4) Contextual Height Stepback. To provide an appropriate scale transition
between opposing block faces with dissimilar height allowances, buildings
shall provide a contextual height stepback. Upper floors shall be set back a
minimum of three feet at the equivalent height limit on the opposing block face.

(5) Planning and Zoning Board Review of Large Buildings. Development plans
with new buildings (or building additions) greater than twenty-five thousand
(25,000) square feet in floor area per story, or that exceed either six (6) stories
or eight-five (85) feet in height, shall be subject to Planning and Zoning Board
review.
(D) Site Design. The following standards shall apply to the Downtown District:
(1) Parking lots, garage entries and service locations. Parking lots, garage
entries and service locations shall be located on alleys. If no alley is present,
they may be located on a Green Edge street. If a Green Edge street is not
present, they may be located on a Mixed-Use street. To the maximum extent
feasible, parking lots and garage entries shall not be located on Storefront
streets. Auto entrances shall be located to minimize pedestrian/auto conflicts.
(2) Parking structures. To the extent reasonably feasible, all parking structures
shall meet the following design criteria:
(a) Where parking structures abut streets, retail and other uses shall be
required along the ground level frontage to minimize interruptions in

pedestrian interest and activity. The decision maker may grant an
exception to this standard for all or part of the ground level frontage on
streets with low pedestrian interest or activity.
(b) Parking and awnings, signage and other architectural elements shall be
incorporated to encourage pedestrian activity at the street-facing level.
(c) Architectural elements, such as openings, sill details, emphasis on
vertical proportions such as posts, recessed horizontal panels and other
architectural features shall be used to establish human scale at the street-
facing level
(3) Outdoor activity. To the extent reasonably feasible, outdoor spaces shall be
placed next to activity that generates the users (such as street corners, offices,
day care, shops and dwellings). Outdoor spaces shall be linked to and made
visible from streets and sidewalks to the extent reasonably feasible. Buildings
shall promote and accommodate outdoor activity with balconies, arcades,
terraces, decks and courtyards for residents' and workers' use and interaction,
to the extent reasonably feasible
(E) Special Subdistrict Provisions. See Figure ___.
(1) Canyon Avenue and Civic Center Subdistricts: Plazas. For buildings located
within the Canyon Avenue and Civic Center Subdistricts that are four (4)
stories or taller, ground floor open space shall be provided that is organized and
arranged to promote both active and passive activities for the public. Such space
must be highly visible and easily accessible to the public and must include
features that express and promote a comfortable human sense of proportionality
between the individual and the environment, whether natural or man-made.

(2) Building materials. The use of local sandstone is required in all
civic buildings to establish a visual continuity and a local sense of
place.
(3) Civic buildings. New major civic buildings, such as a library,
government offices, courthouses, performing arts facilities and
transit centers, shall be located within the Civic Subdistrict and
placed in central locations as highly visible focal points. To the
extent reasonably feasible, they shall be close to a transit stop.
(4) Incorporation of new buildings. New buildings shall be designed in
a manner that establishes continuity and a visual connection
between new and existing buildings within and adjacent to the Civic
Subdistrict. The height, mass and materials of major public
buildings shall convey a sense of permanence and importance.
(3) Old Town Fort Collins Historic District. Buildings located within the locally
designated Old Town Fort Collins Historic District shall also comply with the Old
Town Historic District Design Standards adopted by Ordinance 094, 2014, Chapter

redevelopment in this former industrial area. promoting employment and
innovation. Redevelopment projects will continue to build up a fitting
identity and character related to the Downtown District edge setting with
contemporary semi-industrial building styles and materials. Streetscapes
and sites will reinforce the area’s identity and character with design
features that reflect an industrial character and the river landscape
corridor.
(b) Development Standards. The following standards shall apply to all
development in the Innovation Subdistrict:
(1) Site Design
(a) Landscaping/Vegetation Protection. Naturalistic characteristics of
the river landscape shall be maintained and enhanced using plants
and landscape materials native to the river corridor in the design of
site and landscape improvements.
(b) Outdoor Spaces. Development shall incorporate outdoor spaces
such as patios, courtyards, terraces and plazas to add interest and
facilitate interaction.
(c) Color/Materials. Heavy, durable, locally fabricated components, with
materials such as metal and stone, will be used creatively to complement
building design.
(2) Buildings.
(a) Height/Mass. Multi-story buildings shall be designed to step
down to one (1) story directly abutting any natural habitat or
feature protection buffer.
(b) Parking lots. Buildings shall be sited so that any new parking
lots and vehicle use areas are located in either: 1) interior block
locations between buildings that face the street and buildings
that face the river, or 2) side yards.
(5) River Subdistrict
(a) Purpose. The River Subdistrict is intended to reestablish the linkage
between the Historic Core and the Cache la Poudre River (the "River")
through redevelopment in the corridor. This Subdistrict offers
opportunities for more intensive redevelopment of housing, businesses
and workplaces to complement the Historic Core Subdistrict.

Improvements should highlight the historic origin of Fort Collins and the
unique relationship of the waterway and railways to the urban
environment as well as expand cultural opportunities in the Downtown
area. Redevelopment will extend the positive characteristics of
Downtown such as the pattern of blocks, pedestrian-oriented street fronts
and lively outdoor spaces.
(b) Development Standards.
(1) Transition between the River and Development.
(a) River Landscape Buffer. In substitution for the provisions
contained in subsection 3.4.1(E) (Establishment of Buffer
Zones) requiring the establishment of "natural area buffer
zones," the applicant shall establish, preserve or improve a
continuous landscape buffer along the river as an integral part
of a transition between development and the river. To the
maximum extent feasible, the landscape buffer shall consist
predominantly of native tree and shrub cover. (See Figure _.)
The landscape buffer shall be designed to prevent bank erosion
and to stabilize the river bank in a manner adequate to
withstand the hydraulic force of a 100-year flood event. The
bank stabilization shall comply with the following criteria:
Figure _
Landscape Buffer
1. Any bank stabilization improvements shall consist of native
plants and stone, to the extent reasonably feasible. If any
structural materials such as concrete are required, such
ITEM 5, ATTACHMENT 2
Supplemental Pg. 28
DRAFT SUBJECT TO CHANGE PENDING FURTHER REVIEW
Division 4.16, Downtown District (D) Division 4.16
14
materials shall be designed to emphasize characteristics of
the native landscape such as color, texture, patterns and
proportions, to minimize contrast with the river landscape.
2. The predominant visual elements in any bank stabilization
improvements shall be native vegetation and stone,
notwithstanding the use of any integrated structural
elements. Blank walls shall not be used to retain the slope of
the river bank.
(b) Outdoor spaces. On sites that have river frontage between
Linden Street and Lincoln Avenue, buildings or clusters of
buildings shall be located and designed to form outdoor spaces
(such as balconies, arcades, terraces, decks or courtyards) on
the river side of the buildings and/or between buildings, as
integral parts of a transition between development and the
River. A continuous connecting walkway (or walkway system)
linking such spaces shall be developed, including coordinated
linkages between separate development projects.
(2) Streets and Walkways.
(a) Streets. Redevelopment shall maintain the existing block grid
system of streets and alleys. To the extent reasonably feasible,
the system shall be augmented with additional connections,
such as new streets, alleys, walkway spines, mid-block
passages, courtyards and plazas, to promote a fine-grained
pedestrian circulation network that supplements public
sidewalks.
(b) Driveways. To the extent reasonably feasible, driveways and
curb cuts must be minimized to avoid disruption to the
sidewalk network, by using shared driveways between
properties. The width of driveways and turning radii must be
minimized except where truck access is required.
(c) Jefferson Streetscape. Redevelopment activity along the
Jefferson Street frontage shall provide formal streetscape
improvements including street trees in sidewalk cutouts with
tree grates and planters to screen parking. Planters to screen
parking shall be designed and constructed to appear as integral
extensions of the building design. Materials used shall not be
inferior to those used in the construction of the principal
building.
(3) Buildings.
ITEM 5, ATTACHMENT 2
Supplemental Pg. 29
DRAFT SUBJECT TO CHANGE PENDING FURTHER REVIEW
Division 4.16, Downtown District (D) Division 4.16
15
(a) Industrial Buildings. Except as otherwise provided in this
subsection (3), all new nonresidential buildings, including
industrial buildings, shall comply with the standards for
Mixed-use and Commercial Buildings contained in Section
3.5.3.
(b) Programming, Massing and Placement.
1. Height/Mass. Multiple story buildings are permitted,
provided that massing of multiple story buildings shall be
terraced back from the river and from streets so that
multiple story buildings are stepped down to one (1) story
abutting the River landscape frontage and are stepped down
to three (3) stories or less abutting any street frontage. Such
terraced massing shall be a significant and integral aspect of
the building design.
2. Parking lots. Buildings shall be sited so that any new
parking lots and vehicle use areas are in either: (1) interior
block locations between buildings that face the street and
buildings that face the river, or (2) side yards.
3. Frequent view/access. No building wall abutting the
landscape corridor along the River shall exceed one hundred
twenty-five (125) feet on the axis along the River.
4. Outdoor spaces and amenities. To the extent reasonably
feasible, all development shall provide on-site outdoor
space such as courtyard, plaza, patio or other pedestrian-
oriented outdoor space. To the extent reasonably feasible,
outdoor spaces shall be visible from the street and shall be
visually or physically connected with any outdoor spaces on
adjacent properties.
(c) Character and Image. New buildings shall be designed to
demonstrate compatibility with the historical
agricultural/industrial characteristics of the Subdistrict to
promote visual cohesiveness and emphasize positive historical
attributes. Such characteristics include simple rectilinear
building shapes, simple rooflines, juxtaposed building masses
that directly express interior volumes/functions, visible
structural components and joinery, details formed by
brickwork, sandstone, sills, lintels, headers and foundations
and details formed by joinery of structural materials.
1. Outdoor spaces. Buildings and extensions of buildings shall
be designed to form architectural outdoor spaces such as
balconies, arcades, terraces, decks or courtyards.

2. Windows. Windows shall be individually defined with
detail elements such as frames, sills and lintels, and placed
to visually establish and define the building stories and
establish human scale and proportion. Windows shall be
placed in a symmetrical pattern relative to the wall and
massing. Glass curtain walls and spandrel-glass strip
windows shall not be used as the predominant style of
fenestration for buildings in this Subdistrict. This
requirement shall not serve to restrict the use of atrium,
lobby or greenhouse-type accent features used as
embellishments to the principal building.
3. Roof forms. Flat, shed and gable roof forms corresponding
to massing and interior volumes/functions shall be the
dominant roof forms. Flat-roofed masonry buildings shall
feature three-dimensional cornice treatment integral with
masonry on all walls facing streets, the River or connecting
walkways. Additional decorative shaped cornices in wood
(or other material indistinguishable from wood) shall be
permitted in addition to the top masonry cornice treatment.
Sloped metal roofs are allowed. Barrel roofs may be used as
an accent feature but must be subordinate to the dominant
roof. Specialized or unusual roof forms, including mansards
and A-frames, are prohibited. A single continuous
horizontal roofline shall not be used on one-story buildings
except as part of a design style that emulates nearby
landmarks (or structures eligible for landmark designation).
4. Materials. Building materials shall contribute to visual
continuity within the Subdistrict. Textured materials with
native and historic characteristics, such as brick, stone,
wood, architectural cast stone and synthetic stone in
historically compatible sandstone patterns only,
architectural metals and materials with similar
characteristics and proportions shall be used in a repeating
pattern as integral parts of the exterior building fabric.
Masonry units must wrap around the corners of walls to not
appear as an applied surface treatment. Other exterior
materials, if any, shall be used as integral parts of the
overall building fabric, in repeating modules, proportioned
both horizontally and vertically to relate to human scale,
and with enough depth at joints between architectural
elements to cast shadows, to better ensure that the
character and image of new buildings are visually related
to the Downtown and River context. Lapped aluminum
siding, vinyl siding, smooth-face concrete masonry units,
ITEM 5, ATTACHMENT 2
Supplemental Pg. 31
DRAFT SUBJECT TO CHANGE PENDING FURTHER REVIEW
Division 4.16, Downtown District (D) Division 4.16
17
synthetic stucco coatings and imitation brick are
prohibited.
5. Primary entrance. The primary entrance must be clearly
identified and must be oriented to a major street, pedestrian
way, place, courtyard and/or other key public space. The
primary entrance must feature a sheltering element such as a
canopy or be defined by a recess or a simple surround.
6. Accent features. Accent features, where used, must
complement and not dominate the overall composition and
design of the building and may include secondary entrances,
loading docks, garage bays, balconies, canopies, cupolas,
vertical elevator/stair shafts and other similar features.
7. Awnings and canopies. Awnings and canopies must
complement the character of the building and must be
subordinate to the facade. Colors must be solid or two (2)
color stripes for simplicity.
(4) Site Design.
(a) River Landscape. The natural qualities of the River landscape
shall be maintained and enhanced, using plants and landscape
materials native to the River corridor in the design of site and
landscape improvements.
(b) Walls, Fences and Planters. Walls, fences and planters shall
be designed to match or be consistent with the quality of
materials, the style and colors of nearby buildings. Brick, stone
or other masonry may be required for walls or fence columns.
(c) Street Edge. A well-defined street edge must be established
and shall be compatible with the streetscape in the public
realm. Components may include any of the following: planted
areas, decorative paving, public art, street furnishing with
ornamental lighting and iron and metal work that reflect on the
agricultural/industrial heritage of the Subdistrict.
(d) Corner Lots. For sites located at public street corners, parking
lots and vehicular use areas shall not abut more than one (1)
street frontage.
(e) Parking. Where parking lots are highly visible from streets or
pedestrian-oriented outdoor spaces, a visual buffer must be
provided. Such buffering may consist of any of the following
singularly or in combination: a low solid screen wall, a semi-
opaque screen or a living green wall consisting of plant
ITEM 5, ATTACHMENT 2
Supplemental Pg. 32

Division 4.16, Downtown District (D) Division 4.16
18
material sufficient to provide a minimum of seventy-five-
percent opacity year-round or other screening device that is
sensitive to pedestrian activity.
(f) Interim Parking. Interim parking lots as a principal use may
be approved with a gravel surface and without lighting and
landscape improvements and shall be restricted to a period of
use not to exceed three (3) years. Extensions for two (2)
successive periods of one (1) year each may be granted by the
Planning and Zoning Board upon a finding that the use is
compatible with the context of the area and is a beneficial use
which supports the purpose of the River Subdistrict.
(g) Service Areas and Outside Storage Areas. Service areas and
outside storage areas that are not used for trash and recycling
containers, dumpsters and mechanical equipment must, to the
maximum extent feasible, be located to the side or rear of the
building and be screened from public view. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, where industrial processes and outdoor
mechanical activities are functionally integral to the principal
use, such areas must, to the extent reasonably feasible, be
located to the side or rear of the building and not impact
pedestrian areas. Partial screening must be provided with
design and materials consistent with the building and/or the
agricultural/industrial character of the area.
(5) Design Guidelines. See also the Fort Collins River District Design
Guidelines, which are intended to assist applicants in the
preparation of development plans within the Subdistrict.
(F) Permitted Uses.
(1) The following uses are permitted in the D District subject to basic
development review:
(a) Any use authorized pursuant to a site specific development plan that was
processed and approved either in compliance with the Zoning Code in
effect on March 27, 1997, or in compliance with this Code (other than a
final subdivision plat, or minor subdivision plat, approved pursuant to
Section 29-643 or 29-644 of prior law, for any nonresidential development
or any multi-family dwelling containing more than four [4] dwelling
units), provided that such use shall be subject to all of the use and density
requirements and conditions of said site specific development plan.
(b) Any use that is not hereafter listed as a permitted use in this zone district
but that was permitted for a specific parcel of property pursuant to the
zone district regulations in effect for such parcel on March 27, 1997; and

which physically existed upon such parcel on March 27, 1997; provided,
however, that such existing use shall constitute a permitted use only on
such parcel of property.
