The parcel contains a single- family residence with several agricultural related outbuildings. STAFF RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends adoption of the Ordinance on First Reading. BACKGROUND / DISCUSSION This is an enclave annexation of a single-parcel located within the Growth Management Area (GMA). 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, the City of Fort Collins agrees to consider annexation of property in the 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 page 50 of the City’s Comprehensive Plan. The Kechter Enclave Annexation is a single parcel enclave that was surrounded by the City of Fort Collins upon the annexation of the Kechter Farm Annexation on May 6, 2014. The Kechter Enclave Annexation is located in southeast Fort Collins, abuts Ziegler Road to the east and is situated between Trilby Road and the Fossil Creek Reservoir. The single parcel contains a single family residence with several agricultural related outbuildings. Below is a list of the single-parcel contained within the enclave area: # Property Address Parcel Number Acres 1 6131 Ziegler Road 8608405703 8.4 CITY FINANCIAL IMPACTS There are no financial impacts as a result of the proposed annexation. ATTACHMENT 1 COPY Agenda Item 8 Item # 8 Page 2 BOARD / COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION The Planning and Zoning Board voted 7-0 to recommend approval of the annexation and associated zoning, December 20, 2018. 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, on September 26, 2018, City staff held a stakeholder meeting to answer questions and inform Poudre Valley Rural Electric Association (PVREA) and residents of the Kechter and Strauss Cabin enclave annexations of any changes that may result from annexing into the City. Representatives from Planning Services, Light and Power, Neighborhood Services and Utilities were present to explain any potential difference in electrical rates, services, zoning and infrastructure. Attachment 4 is a FAQ sheet provided to residents who attended the meeting. Additionally, Planning and Neighborhood Services use two strategies to reach the greater community and encourage participation, they are: 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.
