SUBJECT
Items Relating to the Interstate Land Holdings Annexation to the City of Fort Collins.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
A. Resolution 2017-076 Setting Forth Findings of Fact and Determinations Regarding the Interstate Land
Holdings Annexation.
B. First Reading of Ordinance No. 111, 2017, Annexing the Property Known as the Interstate Land Holdings
Annexation to the City of Fort Collins, Colorado.
The purpose of this item is to annex an area of approximately 12.139 acres in southeast Fort Collins. The
property is situated on the northwest corner of the I-25 and Carpenter Road intersection. The Initiating
Resolution was adopted on consent, July 5, 2017.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends adoption of the Resolution and Ordinance on First Reading.
BACKGROUND / DISCUSSION
The Interstate Land Holdings Annexation includes two parcels, a parcel owned by Interstate Land Holdings,
LLC, a parcel owned by the City of Fort Collins, and right-of-way owned by the Colorado Department of
Transportation (CDOT). A portion of the CDOT frontage road in between the properties, as well as the
portion of State Highway 392 to the south, is included in the annexation to provide a continuity of service for
the City of Fort Collins.
The requested zoning for this annexation includes the General Commercial (CG) District for the Interstate
Land Holdings property and CDOT right-of-way, and the Public Open Lands (POL) District for the
City-owned parcel. The requested zoning is consistent with the City of Fort Collins Structure Plan and the Fossil
Creek Reservoir Area Plan Maps.
The properties are bordered on the west by Fossil Creek Regional Open Space and Swede Lake,
Interstate 25 to the east, Carpenter Road to the south, and commercial properties to the north. The I-25
Frontage Road divides the properties. The property is currently zoned T-Tourist in Larimer County.
The Interstate Land Holdings Annexation does not create an enclave. This is a 100% voluntary annexation for a
property located within the Growth Management Area (GMA). According to policies and agreements contained
in the Larimer County and City of Fort Collins Intergovernmental Agreements, the City will agree to consider
annexation of property in the Growth Management Area when the property is eligible for annexation according
to State law.
Agenda Item 14
Item # 14 Page 2
The Interstate Land Holdings Annexation gains the required 1/6 contiguity to existing city limits from a common
boundary with the Fossil Creek Reservoir and the Fossil Creek Reservoir Open Space Annexation (Ordinance
No. 054, 2008) and the Fossil Creek 392 Annexation (Ordinance No.139, 2009). The minimum contiguous
boundary is 807.09 feet, based the total perimeter boundary of 4847.41 feet. The proposed annexation includes
a contiguous boundary of 1042.18 feet, thus satisfying the requirement that no less than one-sixth of the
perimeter boundary be contiguous to the existing city boundary.
CITY FINANCIAL IMPACTS
There are no direct financial impacts as a result of the proposed annexation.
BOARD / COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION
This item was on the consent agenda and unanimously passed by the Planning and Zoning Board on
July 20, 2017.
PUBLIC OUTREACH
An outreach process is not required by Colorado Revised Statues or the City of Fort Collins Land Use Code.
The proposed annexation does not include a development application, and a neighborhood meeting was not
held.
