The purpose of this item is to amend the zoning map and zone the property included in the Hughes Stadium Annexation into the Transition (T) zone district. STAFF RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends adoption of the Ordinance on First Reading. BACKGROUND / DISCUSSION The requested zoning for this annexation is Transition (T) which applies to properties in which there are no specific and immediate plans for development. The only permitted uses are those existing at the effective date of the annexation (10 days after Second Reading) and off-site staging pursuant to Land Use Code Section 4.12(B). Context The surrounding zoning and land uses are as follows: ZONING LAND USES N  Medium Density Mixed-Use Neighborhood and County FA1  Agricultural Land; Residential; Westgate Townhomes S  Public Open Lands County FA1  Natural Areas (Pineridge Natural Area). Single-family Residence E  Medium Density Mixed-Use Neighborhood and County FA1  Residential and Commercial (Trail West PUD, Willow Lane Townhomes, Stadium Heights, Holiday Twin Drive-In Theater) W  Public Open Lands  City of Fort Collins Maxwell Natural Area; Horsetooth Reservoir Area ATTACHMENT 1 COPY Agenda Item 8 Item # 8 Page 2 Zoning The requested zoning for this annexation is the Transition (T) zone district. The Transition zone district is intended for properties for which there are no specific and immediate plans for development. Colorado State University’s stated objectives for future development of the property are as follows: • Select a master developer to present a plan that best serves the collective interests of CSU, Larimer County, and the City of Fort Collins • Include consideration of opportunities for environmentally conscious development principles • Include consideration of opportunities for provision of affordable and workforce housing • Effectively collaborate with the surrounding community It should be noted that any future request to change zoning for the subject property would require a future recommendation by the Planning and Zoning Board and approval by City Council. CITY FINANCIAL IMPACTS There are no direct financial impacts as a result of the proposed zoning. BOARD / COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION At its September 20, 2018, regular meeting, the Planning and Zoning Board voted 6-0 to recommend approval of the annexation. Further, the Board recommended that the property be placed into the Transition (T) zone district. This unanimous action was taken as part of the Board’s Discussion Agenda. An excerpt of minutes from the discussion agenda is provided as an attachment (Attachment 4). PUBLIC OUTREACH The City of Fort Collins Land Use Code and the Colorado Revised Statutes do not require a neighborhood meeting in conjunction with a voluntary annexation. However, prior to the formal submittal of the Hughes Stadium Annexation, Colorado State University and consultants, CAA ICON, hosted two listening sessions at the Drake Centre on September 20, 2017, and October 18, 2017. The meeting offered five “listening” stations where either staff or consultants were available to interact and receive feedback on the following five topic areas; redevelopment process, existing site, land use context, community needs and values and transportation. In addition to the in-person events, Colorado State University hosted an online forum that started on August 28, 2017, and is still available today. During the period between August 28, 2017- December 21, 2017, more than 100 community members communicated their ideas, questions and concerns. Combined, approximately 700 comments, questions and/or concerns were logged by CSU and CAA ICON. The resulting feedback is described by three primary themes: 1. Open Space: Preservation of open space and access to natural/recreational opportunities. 2. Housing: Mix of choices, low density, workforce housing, innovative and affordable 3. Neighborhood Center: neighborhood-oriented services Additional public outreach will be required prior to the submittal of a development application/request for zoning to the City of Fort Collins.
