BACKGROUND / DISCUSSION This is an enclave annexation of three parcels located in northwest Fort Collins that abut Laporte Avenue to the south and are situated between Grandview Avenue and North Bryan Avenue. According to policies and agreements contained in the Larimer County and City of Fort Collins Intergovernmental Agreement (IGA) regarding Growth Management dated June 24, 2008, as amended (IGA), the City of Fort Collins agrees to consider annexation of property in the Growth Management Area (GMA) when the property becomes eligible for annexation under the Colorado Revised Statutes. In addition to the policies contained within the IGA, the City of Fort Collins has a long-standing history of annexing property that becomes eligible within the GMA in order to maintain the community's vision as outlined on p. 50 of the City’s Comprehensive Plan. The Friendly Fire Enclave was surrounded by the City of Fort Collins upon the annexation of the Forney Annexation September 18, 2012, and became eligible for annexation September 18, 2015. The surrounding incorporated land consists of the three previous annexations listed below: 1. Babbitt Addition, 1926 2. Radio City Annex, 1957 3. Frey Annexation, 1967 ATTACHMENT 1 COPY Agenda Item 6 Item # 6 Page 2 Below is a list of the three-parcels contained within the enclave area: # Property Address Parcel Number Acres Current Land Use 1 1760 Laporte Avenue 9710200065 1.09 Warehouse, place of worship, upholstery shop 2 1802 Laporte Avenue 9710200061 .96 Misc. commercial and residential 3 1804 Laporte Avenue 9710200010 .2 Single-family residence CITY FINANCIAL IMPACTS There are no financial impacts as a result of the proposed annexation. BOARD / COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION At its December 20, 2018, the Planning and Zoning Board voted 7-0 to recommend approval of the annexation. This unanimous action was taken as part of the Board’s Consent Calendar. PUBLIC OUTREACH An outreach process is not required by Colorado Revised Statues or the City of Fort Collins Land Use Code. However, October 11, 2018, City staff held a stakeholder meeting to answer questions and inform residents and owners of property within the Friendly Fire Enclave Annexation of any changes that may result from annexing into the City. No one was in attendance for the meeting and staff provided subsequent follow-up with one property owner over the phone and sent a FAQ sheet that was prepared in advance of the meeting. In addition to the neighborhood meeting, Planning and Neighborhood Services use two strategies to reach the greater community and encourage participation: 1. Posting “Development Proposal Under Review” sign(s) that provides a contact phone number and project number to connect any interested party directly to staff. Staff is then available to answer any questions they may have. 2. An email newsletter called “This Week in Development Review” is sent to nearly 1,000 people weekly summarizing project submittals (such as the enclave annexation), hearings and other development review related events that happen throughout the City of Fort Collins.
