EXECUTIVE SUMMARY This item is a quasi-judicial matter and if it is considered on the discussion agenda it will be considered in accordance with the procedures described in Section 1(d) of the Council’s Rules of Meeting Procedures adopted in Resolution 2015-091. The purpose of this item is to zone the property included in the Majestic Place Annexation, located at 2150 Rock Castle Lane (southeast of Timberline Road and Trilby Road), into the Urban Estate zone district. STAFF RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends adoption of the Ordinance on First Reading. BACKGROUND / DISCUSSION The requested zoning for this annexation is U-E Urban Estate, which conforms with the City Structure Plan and the land use framework in the Fossil Creek Reservoir Area Plan. Context The surrounding zoning and land uses are as follows: N: LMN & U-E in the City of Fort Collins; Single-family Residential & Goddard School E: FA1 - Farming in Larimer County; Single-family Residential S: FA1 - Farming in Larimer County; Single-family Residential W: U-E in the City of Fort Collins; Fort Collins Colorado Temple (The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints) Zoning The proposed zoning for the subject annexation is U-E Urban Estate. The Urban Estate District is intended to be a setting for a predominance of low-density and large-lot housing. The main purposes of this District are to acknowledge the presence of the many existing subdivisions which have developed in these uses that function as parts of the community and to provide additional locations for similar development, typically in transitional locations between more intense urban development and rural or open lands. CITY FINANCIAL IMPACTS There are no direct financial impacts as a result of the proposed zoning. Agenda Item 8 Item # 8 Page 2 BOARD / COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION At its June 9, 2016, regular meeting, the Planning and Zoning Board voted 7-0 to recommend approval of the annexation. Further, the Board recommended that parcel be placed into the U-E, Urban Estate zone district. PUBLIC OUTREACH All required mailings and postings per Section 2.9 (Amending the Zoning Map) and 2.12 (Annexation of Land) of the Land Use Code have been completed. ATTACHMENTS 1.
