BACKGROUND
This is a voluntary annexation. The area to be annexed is unincorporated municipally-owned
land.
In accordance with CRS 31-12-106 Annexation of Enclaves, Partially Surrounded Land, and
Municipally Owned Land, when the municipality is the sole owner of the area that it desires
to annex, which area is eligible for annexation as set out in CRS 31-12-104(1)(a) and CRS
31-12-105, the governing body may by ordinance annex said area to the municipality without
complying with:
• CRS 31-12-108 Setting Hearing Date -Notice Given; or
• CRS 31-12-109 Hearing.
The annexing ordinance shall state that the area proposed to be annexed is owned by the
annexing municipality and is not solely a public street or right-of-way.
The property is located within the Fort Collins Growth Management Area (GMA). According to
policies and agreements between the City of Fort Collins and Latimer County contained in the
Intergovernmental Agreements, the City will agree to consider annexation of property in the
GMA when the property is eligible for annexation according to State Law. Pursuant to the
Intergovernmental Agreements the following sections are relevant to the Mulberry East 151
Annexation and Zoning:
Section 1 - GROWTH MANAGEMENT AREA
8. - Annexations
8(A) It is the City's intent to annex properties within the GMA as
expeditiously as possible.
8(C) The City agrees to annex all County Road rights-of-way,
easements, etc., adjacent to a voluntary annexation.

agreements between the City of Fort Collins and Latimer County contained in the

according to State law. This property gains the required 1/6 contiguity to existing City limits
from common boundaries with the Riverbend Annexation (July, 1980) to the south and west and
the Riverbend Third Annexation (August, 2000) to the south.

numerous uses permitted in this District, subject to either administrative review or review by the

Latimer County and the City of Fort Collins contained in the Intergovernmental
