OWNER: Front Range/Limited Partnership
c/o Jeffrey B. Timan
4270 North Campbell Avenue, Unit M
Tucson, Arizona 85718
BACKGROUND:
The applicant, BHA design, on behalf of the property owners, Front Range Limited Partnership,
has submitted a written petition requesting annexation of 4.84 acres located at the northwest
corner of State Highway 287 (South College Avenue) and Trilby Road. The property is currently
functioning as the High Country Pools commercial operation. It is in the C — Commercial
Zoning District in Latimer County. The requested zoning for this annexation is NC —
Neighborhood Commercial. The surrounding properties are currently zoned C - Commercial in
Larimer County to the south and east and NC — Neighborhood Commercial in the City to the
west and the north. This is a 100% voluntary annexation.
The property is located within the Fort Collins Urban Growth Area. According to policies and
agreements between the City of Fort Collins and Latimer County contained in the
Intergovernmental Agreement for the Fort Collins Urban Growth Area, the City will agree to
consider annexation of property in the UGA when the property is eligible for annexation
according to State law. This property complies with State regulations by meeting the
requirement for 1/6 contiguity to existing City limits. This occurs through common boundaries
with the Timan First Annexation (May 23, 1988) to the west and the north.
The surrounding zoning and land uses are as follows:
N: NC; currently undeveloped
E: C in Latimer County; existing commercial
S: C in Latimer County; various existing businesses
W: NC; existing farmstead
The requested zoning for this annexation is the NC — Neighborhood Commercial Zoning
District. There are numerous uses permitted in this District, subject to either administrative
review or review by the Planning and Zoning Board. The City's adopted Structure Plan, a part of
the Comprehensive Plan, suggests that Neighborhood Commercial zoning is appropriate in this
location.
Staff is recommending that this property be excluded from the Residential Neighborhood Sign
District, which was established for the purpose of regulating signs for non-residential uses in
certain geographical areas of the City which may be particularly affected by such signs because
of their predominantly residential use and character. A map amendment will be necessary to
place this property on the Residential Neighborhood Sign District Map as an area not in the Sign
District.
Findings:
1. The annexation of this area is consistent with the policies and agreements between
Larimer County and the City of Fort Collins contained in the Intergovernmental
Aareement for the Fort Collins Urban Growth Area.
DATE: February 5, 2002 1 3 ITEM NUMBER: 26 A-C
2. The area meets the eligibility requirements included in State law to qualify for a
voluntary annexation to the City of Fort Collins.
3. On December 18, 2001, the City Council approved a Resolution which accepted the
annexation petition and determined that the petition was in compliance with State law.
The Resolution also initiated the annexation process for the property by establishing the
date, time and place when a public hearing would be held regarding the readings of the
Ordinances annexing and zoning the area.
4. The requested NC — Neighborhood Commercial Zoning District is in conformance with
the policies of the City's Comprehensive Plan.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends adoption of the annexation and requested zoning.
Staff is recommending that this property be excluded from the Residential Neighborhood Sign
District. A map amendment will be necessary to place this property on the Residential
Neighborhood Sign District Map as an area not in the Sign District.
PLANNING AND ZONING BOARD RECOMMENDATION:
The Planning and Zoning Board will conduct a public hearing on the annexation and zoning
request at its regular monthly meeting on February 7, 2002, and will make its recommendation at
lipthat time. The Board's recommendation will be forwarded to the City Council in time for
Second Reading of the annexation and zoning ordinances.
