EXECUTIVE SUMMARY A. Resolution 2016-041 Setting Forth Findings of Fact and Determinations Regarding the Mountain’s Edge Annexation. B. Public Hearing and First Reading of Ordinance No. 069, 2016, Annexing the Property Known as the Mountain’s Edge Annexation to the City of Fort Collins, Colorado. The purpose of this item is to annex 18.52 acres located at 2430 South Overland Trail at the northeast corner South Overland Trail and West Drake Road. The Initiating Resolution was adopted on April 5, 2016. A related item to zone the annexed property is presented as the next item on the agenda. 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. STAFF RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends adoption of the Resolution and Ordinance on First Reading. BACKGROUND / DISCUSSION The subject property gains the required one-sixth (16.66%) contiguity to existing City limits from three sides. As a result, there is 84.30% of the total perimeter contiguous to the existing municipal boundary which exceeds the required minimum. Annexing this 18.52 acres parcel does not create (nor does it contribute to) an enclave. BOARD / COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION At its April 7, 2016 regular meeting, the Planning and Zoning Board voted 7-0 to recommend approval of the annexation. Further, the Board recommended that the parcel be placed into the L-M-N, Low Density Mixed- Use Neighborhood zone district and into the Residential Neighborhood Sign District. Minutes of this hearing are attached. Most of the comments raised at the hearing were related to the potential development aspects of a Project Development Plan. PUBLIC OUTREACH Given the location of the parcel within the City’s Growth Management Area, with 84.3% of the total perimeter boundary being contiguous to be existing municipal boundary and with the Intergovernmental Agreements in ATTACHMENT 1 Agenda Item 12 Item # 12 Page 2 place with Larimer County, no neighborhood meeting was held for this annexation and zoning. 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. A neighborhood meeting will be required prior to submittal of a Project Development Plan. ATTACHMENTS 1. Vicinity Map (PDF) 2. Structure Plan Map (PDF) 3. Zoning Map (PDF) 4.
