EXECUTIVE SUMMARY A. Resolution 2018-055 Setting Forth Findings of Fact and Determinations Regarding the Aweida Annexation. B. Public Hearing and First Reading of Ordinance No. 073, 2018, Annexing the Property Known as the Aweida Annexation to the City of Fort Collins, Colorado. The purpose of this item is to annex an area of approximately 0.862 acres in southwest Fort Collins. The property is situated on the southwest corner of the South Taft Hill Road and West County Road 38E intersection. The Initiating Resolution was adopted on the consent agenda on April 17, 2018. A related item to zone the annexed property is presented as the next item on this 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 Contiguity The subject property gains the required one-sixth contiguity to existing City limits from a common boundary with the Horsetooth-Harmony West Annexation (Ordinance No. 068, 1980). The minimum contiguous boundary is 135.39 feet, based on the total perimeter boundary of 810.74 feet. The proposed annexation includes a contiguous boundary of 162.20 feet, thus satisfying the requirement that no less than one-sixth of the perimeter boundary be contiguous to the existing city boundary. Enclave Implications Annexing this 0.862-acre parcel does not create (nor does it contribute to creating) an enclave. CITY FINANCIAL IMPACTS There are no direct financial impacts as a result of the proposed annexation. Agenda Item 9 Item # 9 Page 2 BOARD / COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION At its May 17, 2018, regular meeting, the Planning and Zoning Board voted 4-0 (the Board Chair recused himself) to recommend approval of the annexation. Further, the Board recommended that the property be placed into the Low Density Mixed Use Neighborhood (L-M-N) zone district. This action was taken as part of the Board’s consent agenda; therefore, there are no minutes. PUBLIC OUTREACH A neighborhood meeting was held on March 22, 2018, that was attended by six residents from the notification area. Staff received mixed feedback from participants either in support for the annexation and future development project, concerns of potential impacts of the future development project, and the potential for a future annexation that includes a larger area.
