EXECUTIVE SUMMARY A. Resolution 2017-081 Setting Forth Findings of Fact and Determinations Regarding the Newton First Annexation. B. Public Hearing and First Reading of Ordinance No. 121, 2017, Annexing the Property Known as the Newton First Annexation to the City of Fort Collins, Colorado. The purpose of this item is to annex 0.07 acres located at 1516 West Vine Drive, between North Shields Street and North Taft Hill Road. The Initiating Resolution was adopted on consent, July 18, 2017. The Newton First Annexation is the first of two sequential annexations, which are as follows: Newton First - 0.0703 acres; Newton Second - 1.3760 acres; Newton Annexation total area: 1.4463 acres. 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 on one side with the Lincoln Junior High School Second Annexation that was annexed in 1998. As a result, there is 16.67% of the total perimeter contiguous to the existing municipal boundary which exceeds the required minimum (16.66%). Enclave Implications Annexing the 0.0703-acre area 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. ATTACHMENT 1 Agenda Item 14 Item # 14 Page 2 BOARD / COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION At its July 20, 2017, regular meeting, the Planning and Zoning Board voted 6-0 to recommend approval of the annexation. Further, the Board recommended that parcel be placed into the Urban Estate (UE), zone district. This unanimous action was taken as part of the Board’s consent agenda; therefore, there are no minutes. PUBLIC OUTREACH Given that this is a 100% voluntary annexation, there was no neighborhood meeting for this annexation and zoning. This is a 100% voluntary annexation. Please note, however, that all required mailings and postings per Section 2.9 (Amending the Zoning Map) and 2.12 (Annexation of Land) of the Land Use Code have been followed. ATTACHMENTS 1.
