EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The purpose of this item is to zone the property included in the Maverik First Annexation into the General Commercial zone district. 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. STAFF RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends adoption of the Ordinance on First Reading. BACKGROUND / DISCUSSION The requested zoning for this annexation is C-G, General Commercial, which conforms to the larger surrounding area known as the Interchange Business Park. Context The surrounding zoning and land uses are as follows: N: C Equipment Rental (Commercial, County) S: C-G Otter Box Warehouse E: C-G McDonald’s Restaurant W:C-G Air Care Colorado - Vehicle Emissions Testing I-25 Corridor Plan The parcel is located within the I-25 Corridor Plan, adopted in 2003 and covers the area along I-25 between County Roads 52 and 32. The Interchange Business Park, at the southeast quadrant of I-25 and State Highway 14, is designated as a Commercial Corridor. The Plan states: “The Commercial Corridors classification is intended to provide for a wide range of community and regional retail uses, as well as offices, business and personal services. The majority of Commercial Corridor areas, near the I-25/Mulberry Street interchange, are fully developed, whereas areas near the I-25/Prospect Road interchange are, for the most part, undeveloped. While this classification is typically the location for highway business and auto-related uses, it also presents opportunities over time to transform existing developed areas into mixed-use (including residential), multi-modal centers, concurring with the overall community vision for Fort Collins.” Agenda Item 5 Item # 5 Page 2 According to the I-25 Corridor Plan Land Use Map, the subject parcel should be placed into the C-G, General Commercial zone district. The proposed zoning, C-G, General Commercial, complies with the subarea plan. Zoning The proposed zoning for the subject annexation is C-G, General Commercial. This district is intended to be a setting for development, redevelopment and infill of a wide range of community and regional retail uses, offices and personal and business services. Secondarily, it can accommodate a wide range of other uses including creative forms of housing. While some Commercial District areas may continue to meet the need for auto- related and other auto-oriented uses, it is the City’s intent that the Commercial District emphasizes safe and convenient personal mobility in many forms, with planning and design that accommodates pedestrians. CITY FINANCIAL IMPACTS There are no direct financial impacts as a result of the proposed zoning. BOARD / COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION At its January 14, 2016, regular meeting, the Planning and Zoning Board voted 6-0 to recommend approval of the annexation. Further, the Board recommended that parcel be placed into the C-G, General Commercial zone district. This unanimous action was taken as part of the Board’s consent agenda; therefore, there are no minutes. PUBLIC OUTREACH Given the surrounding context of the Interchange Business Park, and the relatively small size of the parcel, there was no neighborhood meeting for this annexation and zoning. Please note, however, that 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 followed. ATTACHMENTS 1.
