SUBJECT
Items Relating to the Kechter Farm Annexation and Zoning.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
A. Resolution 2014-001 Setting Forth Findings of Fact and Determinations Regarding the Kechter Farm
Crossing Annexation.
B. Hearing and First Reading of Ordinance No. 005, 2014, Annexing Property Known as the Kechter
Farm Annexation to the City of Fort Collins.
C. Hearing and First Reading of Ordinance No. 006, 2014, Amending the Zoning Map of the City of Fort
Collins and Classifying for Zoning Purposes the Property Included in the Kechter Farm Annexation to
the City of Fort Collins.
This is a request to annex and zone 88.21 acres located north of Fossil Creek Reservoir, approximately
1,320 feet south of Kechter Road, 2,640 feet east of South Timberline Road, just west of Ziegler Road,
and southwest of Kinard Middle School. The property is located within the Fossil Creek Reservoir Area
Plan. In accordance with the Intergovernmental Agreement with Larimer County, adopted in 1999,
properties within the Fossil Creek Reservoir Area receive their land use approvals in the County and are
annexed into the City prior to construction.
Kechter Farm has a General Development Plan (comparable to the City’s Overall Development Plan) that
encompasses 286 acres. The first phase of the project is 88.21 acres and is currently in the County’s
development review process. Within the first phase, there is a 2.85 acre commercial area, 1.45 acre
recreation center with a neighborhood park, and the remaining land is dedicated to residential
development. The requested zoning for this annexation is LMN - Low Density Mixed Use Neighborhood
and UE - Urban Estate.
This annexation request is in conformance with the State of Colorado Revised Statutes as they relate to
annexations, the City of Fort Collins Comprehensive Plan, and the Larimer County and City of Fort Collins
Intergovernmental Agreements. The annexation of this property will create an enclave, which will affect
approximately 180 acres of land to the north and west of the subject annexation.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends adoption of the Resolution and the Ordinances on First Reading.
BACKGROUND / DISCUSSION
The Intergovernmental Agreement (IGA) between the City of Fort Collins and Larimer County regarding
the Cooperative Planning Area adjacent to Fossil Creek Reservoir (adopted on August 31, 1999) and the
IGA between the City and County regarding Cooperation on Managing Urban Development (adopted on
June 24, 2008) stipulate the following:
ATTACHMENT 1
Agenda Item 13
Item # 13 Page 2
“The County may accept development applications for lands located within any area that is part of
a “receiving area” established through an adopted subarea plan for any Larimer County
Transferable Density Units Program. At such time as the County requires a landowner in a
receiving area to request annexation to the City, the City will process the annexation petition such
that the annexation, if approved by the City, will be completed within thirty-five (35) days following
the County’s approval of the final plat” (Section 5B).
Thus, this IGA stipulates that the properties in this area are annexed after the development review
process. The City does have an opportunity to comment on projects, and City staff has reviewed and
commented on the Kechter Farm project through the County’s development review process. This process
of County plan review followed by annexation was also undertaken with the Westchase, Kechter
Crossing, Fossil Lake neighborhoods. The IGAs referenced are available online at
<http://www.fcgov.com/advanceplanning/pdf/iga-doc.pdf>.
Kechter Farm is located within the Fossil Creek Reservoir Area Plan and contains 286 acres (see
Attachment 5). The parcel contains land that is both within the sending area (area to be conserved) and
receiving area (area to be developed). In 2012, the Board of County Commissioners approved the
project’s General Development Plan which permanently protected over 116 of the 286 acres on the
parcel, making the conservation of this land the last major piece of the Fossil Creek Reservoir
conservation effort outlined in the Fossil Creek Reservoir Area Plan. This annexation is for 88.21 of the
170 acres that is designated for land development in the Kechter Farm General Development Plan.
Kechter Farm has 1/6 contiguity to existing City limits through Kinard Middle School to the northeast
(annexed in May of 2007), Fossil Lake Third Annexation to the east (March 2002), Westchase Second
Annexation (December 2001), and the Poudre School District and Timbers PUD Annexation (July 2002),
thus satisfying the requirement that no less than one-sixth of the perimeter boundary be contiguous to the
existing City boundary.
The annexation of this first phase of the Kechter Farm GDP will create an enclave to the north and west
of the subject property (Attachment 4). According to State Statutes, the creation of an enclave allows the
municipality to annex the enclave areas after it has been an enclave for three years without a petition.
The surrounding zoning and land uses are as follows:
N: LMN in the City of Fort Collins; Homestead Subdivision
E: LMN in the City of Fort Collins; Kinard Middle School
Fossil Lake PUD
S: FA1 - Farming in Larimer County; Fossil Creek Reservoir
W: UE in the City of Fort Collins; Westchase PUD
LMN in the City of Fort Collins; Westchase PUD
Mail Creek Crossing
Timbers Development
Staff is recommending that this property be included in the Residential Neighborhood Sign District. A
map amendment will be necessary as this property is not already in the District. The “Residential
Neighborhood Sign District” was established for the purpose of regulating signs for nonresidential uses in
certain geographical areas of the City which may be particularly affected by such signs because of their
predominantly residential use and character.
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 Agreement for the Fort
Collins Growth Management Area.
2. The requested placement into the Low Density Mixed-Use Neighborhood and Urban Estate
Agenda Item 13
Item # 13 Page 3
District is consistent with the City of Fort Collins Structure Plan Map and the Fossil Creek
Reservoir Area Plan Map.
3. The property meets the eligibility requirements included in State law to qualify for a voluntary
annexation to the City of Fort Collins.
4. On December 3, 2013, the City Council adopted Resolution 2013-097 that 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.
5. The requested LMN, Low Density Mixed Use Neighborhood and UE, Urban Estate Zoning
Districts are in conformance with the policies of the City's Comprehensive Plan.
6. The annexation and zoning request is in conformance with the City of Fort Collins Land Use
Code.
It should be noted that due to an Intergovernmental Agreement between Larimer County and the City of
Fort Collins for the Fossil Creek Reservoir Area Land Use Framework Plan, this annexation is contingent
upon completing development as described in the General Development Plan. If changes to the General
Development Plan are such that they warrant a major amendment to the Plan, the zoning with conditions
would no longer be applicable and the property would be considered zoned Urban Estate and Low
Density Mixed-Use Neighborhood pursuant to the Fort Collins Land Use Code.
FINANCIAL / ECONOMIC IMPACT
No direct financial impacts result from the proposed annexation and zoning.
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS
The health, safety and well-being of the community and its citizens will not be adversely impacted by the
proposed annexation and zoning of the property. The annexation request is in conformance with the
State of Colorado Revised Statutes as they relate to annexations and the City of Fort Collins
Comprehensive Plan & Land Use Code.
BOARD / COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION
At its December 12, 2013 meeting, the Planning and Zoning Board conducted a public hearing regarding
the annexation and zoning request and voted 7-0 to recommend approval of the annexation. The Board
voted 5-0 to recommend that the property be placed in the Low Density Mixed Use Neighborhood and
Urban Estate Zone Districts and in the Residential Neighborhood Sign District. The minutes from the
December 12, 2013 Planning and Zoning Board Hearing are attached.
PUBLIC OUTREACH
The public notification of the annexation and zoning request occurred two weeks prior to the item going
before the Planning and Zoning Board at their scheduled public hearing on December 12, 2013. A letter
of notification of the public hearing was mailed to all Affected Property Owners within 1000 feet of the
property 14 days prior to the hearing. The Land Use Code does not require a neighborhood meeting for
annexation and initial zonings. A meeting was not held for this annexation and zoning request, due to the
fact that the development project was reviewed and approved in the County and a neighborhood meeting
was conducted as part of the County review.
There was significant public outreach during the land use approval process for the General Development
Agenda Item 13
Item # 13 Page 4
Plan (GDP) through Larimer County, including a neighborhood meeting, and public hearings before the
Planning Commission (June 20, 2012) and Board of County Commissioners (December 10, 2012). The
GDP was approved by the Board of County Commissioners by a vote of 3-0. The preliminary plat was
unanimously approved by the Larimer County Planning Commission on December 18, 2013 and is
scheduled to be heard by the Board of County Commissioners on January 13, 2014.

Section 3. That, in accordance with Section 2.9.4(I) of the Land Use Code, the
aforesaid zoning is conditioned upon compliance with that certain Intergovernmental Agreement
Regarding Cooperation on Managing Urban Development, originally adopted May 1, 1980, and
amended November, 2000 (“IGA”), and the Larimer County Land Use Code Supplementary
Regulations, Section 15.2.2 et seq, and the General Development Plan (“GDP”) and Planned
Development zoning approved by Larimer County on December 10, 2012. Accordingly, this
zoning will only be applicable if and to the extent that the development contemplated by the
GDP is actually constructed in accordance with the GDP. If it is not so constructed, and if such
deviation from the GDP is substantial enough to require a Major Amendment under the
provisions of the Land Use Code, then this conditional zoning will no longer be applicable, and
the property will be required to be processed through such applications under the Land Use Code
as would be required if the property were zoned U-E and L-M-N without conditions.
Furthermore, the portion of the property within the L-M-N zone district designated as
“Commercial” (in the northeastern corner of the property) shall, in any event, be required to
obtain approval by the City of a Project Development Plan pursuant to the Land Use Code.
Section 4. That the Sign District Map adopted pursuant to Section 3.8.7(E) of the
Land Use Code of the City of Fort Collins is hereby changed and amended by showing that the
above-described property is included in the Residential Neighborhood Sign District.
Section 5. That the City Manager is hereby authorized and directed to amend said
Zoning Map in accordance with this Ordinance.
Introduced, considered favorably on first reading, and ordered published this 7th day of
January, A.D. 2014, and to be presented for final passage on the 18th day of March, A.D. 2014.
