AGENDA ITEM SUMMARY DATE: February 17, 2004
FORT COLLINS CITY COUNCIL STAFF: Katie Moore
SUBJECT
Second Reading of Ordinance No. 023, 2004, Vacating Portions of the Rights-of-Way as
Dedicated on the Plat of Fossil Creek Meadows, First Filing.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends adoption of the Ordinance on Second Reading.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
This site is located east of College Avenue,just north and south of Fossil Creek Parkway. It was
a County development proposal that dedicated the streets as shown and laid out on the Fossil
Creek Meadows, First Filing plat. Fossil Creek Parkway was built, but the Frontage Road was
not. The dedicated right-of-way was annexed into the City when the parcel was annexed in
1985. Since that time a development proposal, Discount Tire at Fossil Creek, for which an
Administrative Hearing was held on October 7, 2003, was submitted and shows that Fossil Creek
Parkway was constructed slightly different than was originally platted. The plat approved at the
Administrative Hearing proposes vacating portions of right-of-way along Fossil Creek Parkway
that are no longer needed and dedicating portions which are needed due to the location in which
it was constructed. The plat for Discount Tire at Fossil Creek also proposes the vacation of a
portion of the right-of-way dedicated for a frontage road for College Avenue. The frontage road
is no longer needed, but a portion of right-of-way needed for the expansion of College Avenue
will be retained by the City, with the remainder proposed for vacation. Ordinance No. 023,
2004, was unanimously adopted on First Reading on February 3, 2004.
