These sites are located along Timberline Road north of the intersection with Trilby Road. The Timbers site is located directly south of the Poudre R-1 Elementary school. The Timbers project consists of 176 multi-family dwelling units and one clubhouse. These developments exemplify many of the Principles and Policies of the City of Fort Collins City Plan including: PRINCIPLE LU-2: The city will maintain and enhance its character and sense of places as defined by its neighborhoods, districts, corridors, and edges. Policy LU-2.1 City-Wide Structure Policy LU-2.2 Urban Design Poudre R-1 Elementary and the Timbers will create a neighborhood with distinct edges that fit within the city structure plan. The designs of these sites meet the guidelines for new construction to form a citywide structure with diverse identities.

Policy LU4.1 Planning within the Context of City Plan. Policy LU4.2 Generic Scope. Policy LU4.3 Collaboration. Policy LU4.5 Priority Subareas. • These developments are located within the Intergovernmental Agreement Area for the Fossil Creek Reservoir Area Plan. They have met specific standards that apply to this location. The Timbers has had a joint review process through Larimer County and the City of Fort Collins and does comply with both landuse-planning codes. PRINCIPLE T-1: The physical organization of the city will be supported by a framework of transportation alternatives that maximizes access and mobility throughout the city, while reducing dependence upon the private automobile Policy T-1.1 Land Use Patterns Policy T-1.2 Multi-Modal Streets Policy T-1.3 Street Design Criteria These sites are located along the Timberline Road major arterial.

PRINCIPLE T-5: The City will acknowledge pedestrian travel as a viable transportation mode and elevate it in importance to be in balance with all other modes. Direct pedestrian connections will be provided and encouraged from place of residence to transit, schools, activity centers, work and public facilities. Policy T-5.1 Land Use Policy T-5.2 Connections The multi-family and public school project will provide a mix of land uses that create pedestrian mobility throughout the community. The pedestrian connections will be clearly marked, signed and striped. PRINCIPLE CAD-1: Each addition to the street system will be designed with consideration to the visual character and the experience of the citizens who will use that street system and the adjacent property. Together, the layout of the street network and the streets themselves will contribute to the character,form and scale of the city. Policy CAD-1.1 Street Design Standards Policy CAD-1.3 Streetscape Design Policy CAD-1.4 Street Tree Design All of the public streets around the proposed developments shall meet the street design criteria from the Larimer County Urban Area Street Standards. All of these streets will be lined with canopy shade trees to provide for a functional, safe and visually appealing layout. The majority of the tree plantings will be canopy trees with a diversity of species represented. PRINCIPLE CAD-4: Security and crime prevention will continue to be important factors in urban design. Policy CAD-4.2 Lighting and Landscaping SLighting and landscaping will be designed to promote security and comfortable area-wide visibility.

Policy ECON-1.4 Jobs/Housing Balance The type of housing that will be located on the Timbers site will have options for different levels of income. PRINCIPLE HSG —1: A variety of housing types and densities will be available throughout the urban area for all income levels. Policy HSG-1.1 Land Use Pattems Policy HSG-1.2 Housing Supply Policy HSG-1.4 Land for Residential Development The Timbers development and the Poudre R-1 Elementary school are adding additional housing and schooling opportunities for residents in southern Fort Collins. PRINCIPLE AN-4: Design policies for residential buildings are intended to emphasize creativity, diversity, and individually. The following design policies are based on the premise that truly creative design is responsive to its context and the expressed references of citizens, and contributes to a comfortable, interesting community. Policy AN-4.1 Multiple-Family Housing Characteristics Policy AN-4.2 Multiple-Family Building Variation Four different types of multi-family buildings are to be proposed on the Timbers site. The architecture will provide variety while maintaining an overall architectural theme. Thanks for your time and consideration. I look forward to working with you during the annexation process.
