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 2017-017. The purpose of this item is to place the property included in the Lehman-Timberline annexation into the Low Density Mixed-Use Neighborhood (LMN), zone district. STAFF RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends adoption of the Ordinance on First Reading. BACKGROUND / DISCUSSION Proposed Zoning The requested zoning for the subject annexation is 5.684 acres of Low Density Mixed-Use Neighborhood (LMN), which conforms to the City’s Structure Plan and Fossil Creek Reservoir Area Plan. Context The surrounding zoning and land uses are as follows: Zoning Use North Urban Estate (UE) Single-Family Residential East Low Density Mixed-Use Neighborhood (LMN) Elementary School, Residential Condominium South Low Density Mixed-Use Neighborhood (LMN) Single Family Residential West Medium Density Mixed-Use Neighborhood (MMN) Agriculture, Single Family Residential Fossil Creek Reservoir Area Plan The parcel is located within the Fossil Creek Reservoir Area Plan, a joint plan between the City of Fort Collins and Larimer County and adopted in 1998. The planning area covers 5,062 acres of the southeast region of Agenda Item 14 Item # 14 Page 2 Fort Collins within the GMA. The objectives of the Plan are to: 1. Build a self-supporting group of neighborhoods with a full complement of parks, schools and community facilities linked by open space systems and consistent with the County’s Master Plan and Fort Collins’ City Plan, Principles and Policies. 2. Provide for protection of sensitive wildlife habitat around the Reservoir as well as provide standards for such habitat conservation. 3. Provide neighborhood centers as a focal point for neighborhood activity. Provide a Neighborhood Commercial Center to serve surrounding neighborhoods including a grocery store or supermarket and other neighborhood oriented retail services. 4. Link the area to other districts and neighborhoods, encourage walking and bicycling, and accommodate transit service to the Neighborhood Commercial Center and other neighborhood centers. 5. Complement, but not compete with, development in the Harmony Corridor. 6. Provide a "Transfer of Density units" (TDU) program in which development units may be transferred from the region between Fort Collins and Loveland to the Receiving Area portion of the Fossil Creek Reservoir Area Plan. 7. Achieve higher densities where they are appropriate and feather to lower densities as development nears Fossil Creek Reservoir. Zoning The proposed zoning for the subject annexation is Low Density Mixed-Use Neighborhood (LMN). This district is intended to be a setting for development with a wide range of community uses subject to Basic Development Review (BDR), Administrative review, or Planning and Zoning Board review. The zone district accommodates a wide range of housing types. The existing use of the site is single-family detached residential which is managed by the City of Fort Collins. CITY FINANCIAL IMPACTS There are no direct financial impacts as a result of the proposed zoning. BOARD / COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION The Planning and Zoning Board will conduct a public hearing on the annexation and zoning request on February 16, 2017. The Board’s recommendation will be provided to Council in the Read Before packet on February 21, 2017. PUBLIC OUTREACH An outreach process is not required by the Colorado Revised Statues or the City of Fort Collins Land Use Code. However, on November 15, 2016, City staff held a stakeholder meeting to answer questions and inform residents of any changes that may result from being annexed into the City. Representatives from Planning and Light and Power were present to explain any potential difference in electrical rates, services, zoning and various issues related to future public improvements associated with land development.
