FORT COLLINS CITY COUNCIL DATE: March 6, 2001
FROM: Ted Shepard
SUBJECT :
Resolution 2001-39 Finding Substantial Compliance and Initiating Annexation Proceedings for the
Arbor South Annexation.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends adoption of the Resolution.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
The Arbor South Annexation is 11.26 acres in size. The site is generally located on the west side
of South College Avenue,east of the Burlington Northern Same Fe Railroad tracks, approximately
one-quarter mile south of Harmony Road. Contiguity with the existing municipal boundary is gained
along the north property line with a parcel known as the Spradley Barr Annexation.
The proposed Resolution states that it is the City's intent to annex this property and directs that the
published notice required by State law be given of the Council's hearing to consider the needed
annexation ordinance. The hearing will be held at the time of First Reading of the annexation and
zoning ordinances on April 17, 2001. Not less than 30 days prior published notice is required by
State law.
BACKGROUND:
This is a 100% voluntary annexation for a property located within the Urban Growth Area. The
property satisfies the requirement that no less than one-sixth of the perimeter boundary be contiguous
to the existing City boundary. The parcel abuts the Mason Street Corridor. The applicant is aware
of the findings of the Mason Street Transportation Corridor Master Plan.
The Planning and Zoning Board conducted a public hearing on the annexation and zoning request
at its meeting on February 1, 2001. At that meeting, the Board recommended, by a vote of 6-0,
approval of the Arbor South Annexation.
