The following petition and application for rezoning was pres0 ted and read at length: PETITION AND APPLICATION FOR REZONING STATE OF COLORADO) ss. COUNTY OF LARIMER) TO THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITy Gentlemen: OF FORT COLLINS, COLORADO We, the undersigned, being the owners of 50% of the following described property, situate in the City of Fort Coins, Counity of Larimer, State of Colorado, to -wit: The SW4 of the NWQ of Section 21, Township 7 N., Range 69W of the 6th Pm., containing 40 acres, more or less, according to surveys and plats thereof. Containing forty (40) acres, more or less, do respectfully petition and request that the City Council amend the zoning ordinance of the City of Fort Collins by changing said above described land from R-L zone to R-M zone. RE: RECKSTED OVERLAND TRAIL. PROPERTY CESTLL`gEY: Respectfully -submitted, PAUL E. WENKE, Trustee, Becksted Trust 'These lands are now and have been for some years a part of the City of Fort Collins, Colorado. The Petition for rezoning is based upon the desire of Petitioner to make the best possible use of these lands for the future proper and necessary growth of the City of Fort Collins, Colorado. Under previous written and oral agreements with the City of Fort Collins, proper provisions have been made for the providing of domestic water and rights -of -way and for sanitary sewer purposes.' Petitioner has declined to sell tracts in the past of this property feeling it best for proper. growth that this part of Fort Collins should be maintained in such a tray that enhances.proper zoning and planning. Mr. Alvin Miller, who is desirous of re_oning a part of a 40 acre tract to the north joins t•:ith me and I have no objection to his desired rezoning of a portion of his said 40 acre tract of land. It is understood that under good planning the total acreage of approximately 80 acres be so laid out and rezoned so that street rights -of -Tray and other necessary improvements will constitute an over-all plan so that the streets shall be entered and that the use of accesses to Overland Trail be limited to a minimum. Fort Collins, obviously is in need of a plan for large tracts of land within the City to provide the City,in the interests of its citizens,the best Possible use of land - Obviously the City of Fort Collins is being confronted with the demands for additional housing and service spaces and or course the added tax benefit to the Cite. ]t.- is 00 desirO of this Petitioner that this Petition be considered along with that of Mr. Ailler's subdivision so that correct and proper planning may be established, which is as this Petitioner understands, the City desires and the Planning and Zoning Board restriction to -single family units' cannot possibly solve this situation. Such areas :are in no war objectionable to Petitioner and in that part of Fort Collins be extended to the present and future use of the citizens of Fort Collins. It is imperative that these properties be properly planned and rezoned within the range of economic possibilities. To correlate Mr. Miller's plans and the plans of Petitioner the same should be heard at the same time and through the re¢uest that they be forthwith considered by the Planning and Zoning Board and to be considered and then recommendations be presented to the hearing which I understand will be January 6, 1970. I am sure that the Planning and Zoning Board as well as the City Council will, under all the circumstances desire to consider the over-all plan for the benefit of all concerned. As will be noted by the Planning and Zoning Board this 41,21 acres is bordered on the West by Overland Trail and Colorado state University Stadium and lands in the county only on the Bast by owners who at this time have not desired to become a part of Fort Collins and the only adjacent.on 6 one side with the City of Fort collin's is the aforesaid 40 acres wwned by Mr. Alvin }filler. I do not represent fir. Puller but he and I have had many talks and we are in more or lass general agreement as to the location of avenues, streets r and roads within the area under consideration. - Because of the fact that there are land owners within the City of Fort Collins adiacent to or abutting upon this property I feel there is no necessity to obtain any petitions for or against or those residing_ outside of the City and only within the county of Larimer, Colorado since obviously they have t desired not to be within the city (which desires I think are very foolish,; but be that as it may). Because of the constant changes in the ordinances with regard the i .to E zoning I trust that this information will be of value to both the Planning and e - Zoning Boar) and the Citv Council and I s,lall be more than happy to be consulted r with by both Board and Council. Again, I reiterate, it is the desire of the Petitioner to work out a solution which would make the best use of these present City lands for the benefit of the citizens of Fort Collins as well as for the City. I suggest to the Planning and Zoning Board that this matter be placed on the agenda for January 6, 1970 so that the discussion and an early conclusion may be arrived at. 0 /sl Paul E. Wenke Paul E. Wenke, Trustee, Becksted Trust and by virtue thereof owner of all of said property described herein. Motion was made by Councilma; Kruchten, seconded by Councilman Kissock, that this petition be referred to the Planning and Zoning Board for their recommendation. Roll was called resulting as follows: Ayes: Coun- cilmen Carson; Troxell, Lopez, Kissock and Kruchten. Nayes: None. The Mayor declared the motion adopted.
