AGENDA ITEM SUMMARY DATE: October27, 2009
FORT COLLINS CITY COUNCIL STAFF: Ted Shepard
SUBJECT
Items Relating to the Riverwalk Annexation and Zoning.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends adoption of this Ordinance on Second Reading.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
A. Second Reading of Ordinance No. 099, 2009, Annexing Property Known as the Riverwalk
Annexation to the City.
B. Second Reading of Ordinance No. 100,2009,Amending the Zoning Map of the City of Fort
Collins and Classifying for Zoning Purposes the Property Included in the Riverwalk
Annexation to the City.
These Ordinances, unanimously adopted on First Reading on October 6, 2009 annex and zone
265.65 acres generally located at the southwest quadrant of Interstate 25 and East Harmony Road.
The site is bounded by I-25 on the east,Harmony Road on the north,the Fossil Creek Reservoir Inlet
Ditch on the west and Kechter Road on the south. The requested zoning is T, Transition.
The applicant has asked that the zoning for the south half of the property be amended on Second
Reading from Public Open Lands District(POL)to Transition District(T). This is consistent with
the petition for annexation,which requests that the entire property be placed in the T zone. Staff and
the P&Z Board initially recommended that the south half of the property be placed in the Public
Open Lands(POL)zone since the anticipated use of that portion of the property is for a water storage
facility. However, staff does not object to the request to place the entire parcel in the T-Transition
Zone District as the land use regulations that would control the property are not impacted. The
property, if zoned T-Transition, would require a subsequent zone change before any development
could occur except that the proposed zoning condition recommended by the P&Z would allow dirt
removal in accordance with a Type II permit. Staff believes that rezoning the entire parcel T does
not impact the City's ability to ensure the property conforms with the City's adopted Plans, Policies
and Regulations.

BACKGROUND � I kr� 7 7
The applicants and property owners,0 i subm"itt[ written[petition requesting annexation of
265.65 acres located generally at the southwest quadrant of Interstate 25 and East Harmony Road.
The property is a former gravel extraction operation and undeveloped.
The property is located within the Growth Management Area. According to the policies and
agreements between the City of Fort Collins and Larimer County contained in the amended
Intergovernmental Agreement for the City of Fort Collins Growth Management Area,the City will
agree to consider annexation of property in the GMA when the property is eligible for annexation
according to State law. According-to the IGA, as amended:
,�
"It is the City's intent o annex�i, operfies;.within the GMA as expeditiously as
\:-� t` I �
possible consistent with e to s'of�this�Agr�eement. EE ept as provided in Section
8(B), the City agrees to consider the annexation of any parcel or parcels of land
located within the GMA which are eligible for voluntary annexation pursuant to the
provisions of Title 31, Article 12 Colorado Revised Statutes."
Contiguity with the existing municipal boundary is gained along a portion of the northern boundary
which is shared with the Arapaho Bend Second Annexation and a portion of the west boundary
which is shared with the Stute Annexation Number Three, the Brookfield Annexation and the
Sunrise Ridge First and Second Annexations.
The parcel,therefore,complies1with the requirementsoftheIntergovernmental Agreement—Growth
Management Area and is eligibleeff��ex�jf
One of the stated intents of the IGA is to have urban development occur within the City in order that
the provision of urban level services by the County would be minimized. This is a 100%voluntary
annexation. The parcel is not an enclave. On August 18, 2009, City Council adopted Resolution
2009-080,which accepted the annexation petition and established that the petition is in compliance
with state statutes.
The surrounding zoning and land uses are as follows:

Residential Neighborhood Sign District
Staff is recommending placement into the Residential Neighborhood Sign District. This is
particularly appropriate for the southerly 126 acres. For the northerly 139.65 acres, however, this
designation is appropriate for the'T=Transit'ion zon�(Future re zoning into an ultimate zone district

Zoning- Requested Zoning—Transition
The northerly 139.65 are proposed to be zoned T, Transition. The Land Use Code describes this
zone district as follows:
Purpose. The Transition District is intended for properties for which there are no
specific and immediate plans-for developm�ent-.Th-The uses are those
existing at the date the,pI\roperty was plat-ed into this D1N ict.
The owners have indicated that there•are no.-specific-and immediate plans for development. While
in the Transition zone, the owners and the City of Fort Collins can evaluate various future
development scenarios. The owners may at any time petition to remove the property from the
Transition zone and place it in another zone district.
The Transition zone district accomplishes the purpose of annexing the property while placing the
ultimate zoning decision in abeyance.
Condition of Zoning to Allow Earth Work in the_T Zone
Section 2.9.4(I) of the Land Use Code allows the City-0add`conditions to a zoning request. The
site is currently in the County and he own�arS operating under a State permit to reclaim the
former gravel pit on the northerly portion. This basically involves recontouring the site and
restoring the ground cover in accordance with the standards of the State Mined Land Reclamation
Board. If a permanent water body is created, then it must be certified by the State Engineer and
properly augmented with sufficient water rights to compensate for evaporation loss.
In addition to reclamation work, the Riverwalk developer would like to conduct overlot grading in
order to create developable ground that is out of the 100-year floodway and floodplain. There would
be significant cost efficiency if the overlot grading could be done in conjunction with the gravel pit
reclamation work.,
i f the re lamation work. Fu�staff would support a Project
Staff supports the contmuat ono e c pp �
Development Plan application that'describes he extent of the earth work necessary to create the
developable parcels. Since the Transition zone does not allow new earth work, such work under the
October 6, 2009 -4- Item No. 21
Transitional zone would need to be added as an allowable use as a condition of zoning.
Staff, therefore, recommends the following condition of zoning:
Notwithstanding the restrictions contained in Section 4.12 of the Land Use Code,
earth-moving activities that are necessary to complete the terms and conditions of
the State of Colorado Mined Land Reclamation Board for reclamation of the former
gravel pit on the property,as well as the addition, stockpiling and grading of fill dirt
in order to establish the necessary grades for future development of the property,
shall also be permitted./An6y earth�work�ac i1 itytha reds the requirements for
gravel pit reclamation is subject to submi lal,)review,�and approval of a Project
Development Plan subject to review:by the Planning and Zoning Board in
accordance with the Landse U Code.
Zoning—Requested Zoning—Public Open Land
The southerly 126 acres are proposed to be zoned P-O-L, Public Open Land. The Land Use Code
describes this zone district as follows:
Purpose. The Public Open Lands District is for large publicly owned parks and open
lands which have a community-wide:emphasis-or other-characteristics which warrant
it � �i .� i � rr
inclusion under this separate designation rather tha�n Inclusion in an adjoining
neighborhood or other District
The City of Fort Collins has entered into purchase contract to acquire the southerly 126 acres for a
variety of purposes.
a. Flood Control
Significant portions of the southerly 126 acres are located within both the 100-year floodway and
floodplain,as designated by the Flood Insurance Rate Maps of the Federal Emergency Management
Agency. Approximately 80 acres arse a former gravel it and are undergoing reclamation under a
�/ 1`
permit from the State of Colorado Mined Land Reclamation Board. With sufficient freeboard,
reclaimed gravel pits can serve a, , s effective e flood conveyance channels without having to build
costly flood control structures.
b. Water Storage
Development of reclaimed gravel pits as water storage reservoirs can provide the following benefits:
• They can serve as sources of raw water for water treatment.
• They can be used as compensating reservoirs to accommodate water trades among various
entities.
• They can supplement efflu'nt`discharge`fro`m west wateAr�%treatment facilities.
• They can add to minim�urn stream flows m the Poudre�River.
October 6, 2009 -5- Item No. 21
The location downstream of the Drake Water Reclamation Facility is strategic and will allow the
City to meet certain water management objectives and obligations related to the storage and release
of the City's reusable effluent as prescribed by City water rights decrees. The City of Fort Collins
Water Utility Capital Fund has already appropriated funding for acquisition and development of
gravel pit water storage on a regional basis. The Water Utility expects to gain approximately
between 1,500 and 2,000 acre feet of water storage upon execution of the terms of the purchase
contract.
C. Natural Area
Reclaimed gravel.mines, and heir surround Bland, are`pr me candidates for future natural
areas. Examples of restored Ggravel pits converted to natural areas include Riverbend Ponds,
Arapaho Bend and McMurry Ponds. Approximately�48 acres-of the proposed acquisition will be
added to the City's natural areas inventory to be restored to enhance habitat and recreational
opportunities. Eagle View Natural Area is to the south and Arapaho Bend Natural Area is to the
north. In the future,all three areas are planned to be linked by a trail. Finally,an additional 48 acres
of open space along I-25 will mitigate the urbanization expected at the major interchanges.-
Structure Plan and Harmony Corridor Plan
The Structure Plan Map indicates designZalions:
• "Employment" in'the•nortliwesf-qu -ter
• "Poudre River" in the northeast quarter
• "Rural Lands" in the southern one-half.
The parcel is also contained within the boundary of the Harmony Corridor Plan and designated as
"Basic Industrial and Non-Retail Employment Activity Center."
The proposed zoning on the northerly 139.65 acres, T, Transition, acknowledges that further
planning efforts are warranted in order to place this area into an ultimate zone district. Until such
time, a Structure Plan amendment t needed
The proposed zoning the Itherly/126�acre )P-O-L, Public Open Lands, is consistent with the
g onP P
"Rural Lands"Structure Plan designation. For example,the purpose of the Rural Lands zone district
is as follows:
"The Rural Lands District is intended for privately owned lands that are planned as
rural edge to the community. Rural lands include but are not limited to community
separators, clustered residential development, large lot residential, agriculture,
natural area buffers and corridors and other open land o similar character and
purpose." ��

October 6, 2009 -6- Item No. 21
Compliance with State Law
The annexation has 31.33% of its perimeter boundary contiguous with existing City limits which
exceeds the required one-sixth as mandated by State law. Further, the parcel is found to have a
community of interest with the City and the parcel is expected to urbanize shortly.
