EXECUTIVE SUMMARY This item is a quasi-judicial matter and if it is considered on the discussion agenda it will be considered in accordance with the procedures described in Section 1(d) of the Council’s Rules of Meeting Procedures adopted in Resolution 2018-034. The purpose of this item is to zone the property included in the One Twenty Eight Racquette Drive Annexation into the Industrial (I) zone district. STAFF RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends adoption of the Ordinance on First Reading. BACKGROUND / DISCUSSION The requested zoning for this annexation is I, Industrial, which conforms to the larger surrounding area known as the Fort Collins Industrial Park. Context The surrounding zoning and land uses are as follows: The proposed Industrial (I) zoning and use of the existing building as a cheer academy is consistent with the surround land uses and is permitted in the Industrial zone district. Further, the use of the site would not result in significantly adverse impacts on the natural environment, including, but not limited to, water, air, noise, stormwater management, wildlife, vegetation, wetlands and natural functioning of the environment. North South East West Zoning Employment (E) Industrial (I) (Larimer County) Industrial (I) (Larimer County) Industrial (I) (Larimer County) Land Use Airport (former Fort Collins Airfield) Workshop and custom small industry use (High Plains Door & Millwork) Workshop and custom small industry use (Franklin Aircraft Engines) Brewery (Horse & Dragon Brewing Company) Agenda Item 12 Item # 12 Page 2 Zoning As previously mentioned, the proposed zoning for the subject annexation is Industrial (I). The City of Fort Collins Land Use Code describes this zone district as follows: “Purpose. The Industrial District is intended to provide a location for a variety of work processes and workplaces such as manufacturing, warehousing and distributing, indoor and outdoor storage, and a wide range of commercial and industrial operations. The Industrial District also accommodates complementary and supporting uses such as convenience shopping, childcare centers and housing. While these Districts will be linked to the City's transportation system for multiple modes of travel, some may emphasize efficient commercial trucking and rail traffic as needed. Industrial and manufacturing processes used in this District may, by necessity, be characteristically incompatible with residential uses.” Existing use of the site aligns with this purpose statement. City Plan (2019) The Structure Plan establishes a broad vision for future land uses in Fort Collins. The proposed zoning of Industrial (I) is consistent with the Structure Plan Map designation and the following stated principle: Principal Land Use “Industrial land uses such as manufacturing, assembly plants, primary metal and related industries; vehicle related commercial uses warehouse, outdoor storage yards and distributions facilities; and flex space for small, local start-ups as well as large national or regional enterprises.” The existing cheer academy would fall under the commercial land use designation and is a permitted use within the Industrial zone district. East Mulberry Corridor Plan (2003) The property is located within the East Mulberry Corridor Plan boundary, jointly adopted by the City of Fort Collins and Larimer County in 2003. According to the Land Use Framework Plan, the plan recommends that the subject property be placed into the Industrial (I) zone district and further describes the district as: A place “intended to provide a location for a variety of workplaces, such as manufacturing, warehousing and distributing; indoor and outdoor storage; and a wide range of commercial and industrial operations.” The proposed zoning of Industrial (I) complies with the sub-area plan. The proposed cheer academy is a permitted use within the Industrial zone district and would fall under the commercial land use designation. CITY FINANCIAL IMPACTS No financial impacts are expected as a result of this annexation. BOARD / COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION The Planning and Zoning Board voted 7-0 to recommend the placement of the property into the Industrial (I) zone district at its November 20, 2019, meeting. This unanimous action was taken as part of the Board’s Consent Calendar, therefore, no meeting minutes will be provided as part of this agenda item. Agenda Item 12 Item # 12 Page 3 PUBLIC OUTREACH The City of Fort Collins Land Use Code and the Colorado Revised Statutes do not stipulate that a neighborhood meeting be held in conjunction with a voluntary annexation, therefore, a neighborhood meeting was not held.

Five priority place types have been identified to help illustrate the challenges and opportunities associated with infill and redevelopment, and the critical role it will play in helping the community achieve its vision over the next 10-20 years. Priority place types are identified with a and described in more detail beginning on page 103. Together, they provide direction on what types of uses are encouraged where and at what intensities. The Structure Plan map illustrates how the community will grow and change over time, serving as a blueprint for the community’s desired future. It focuses on the physical form and development pattern of the community, illustrating areas where new greenfield development, infill and redevelopment are likely to occur, as well as the types of land uses and intensities to encourage. The Structure Plan: » Guides future growth and reinvestment and serves as official land use plan for the City; » Informs planning for infrastructure and services; » Fosters coordinated land use and transportation decisions within the city and region; and » Helps implement principles and policies. The Structure Plan, in conjunction with the Transportation Plan and other supporting elements, will be used to guide future development decisions, infrastructure improvements, and public and private investment and reinvestment in Fort Collins. The Structure Plan Map serves as a blueprint for the desired future development pattern of the community, setting forth a basic framework for future land use and transportation decisions. Upon annexation or a request for rezoning, the Structure Plan map and City Plan principles and policies provide guidance for decision-makers to identify specific zoning boundaries and zone districts during the development review process. Neighborhood, corridor and subarea plans supplement City Plan with additional policy and land use or transportation designations for specific geographic areas. In the event of a conflict between a policy or designation in City Plan and a subarea plan, the subarea plan shall prevail. The City maintains a number of adopted subarea and neighborhood plans that include a land use component. These plans are adopted by reference and should be referred to for more detailed guidance.

In most cases, land use categories generally follow existing parcel lines, roadways and other geographic boundaries. If the place-type boundary shown on the Structure Plan map does not follow an existing parcel line, the actual delineation of place types will be established at the time of a proposed re- zoning and development submittal. Underlying zoning was reviewed and considered as updates to the Structure Plan were made to ensure that consistency between planned land uses and zoning could be maintained to the maximum extent feasible. However, in some instances, place-type categories do differ from underlying zoning, as was necessary to meet the broader objectives of the Plan. To fully achieve the Plan’s objectives, re-zoning may be required when some properties develop or redevelop in the future. Future zone changes should generally adhere to the place-type boundaries depicted on the Structure Plan, but flexibility in interpretation of the boundary may be granted provided the proposed change is consistent with the principles, goals and policies contained in this Plan. Density ranges outlined for each place-type category are based on gross acreage and are intended to address overall densities for a particular area rather than for individual parcels. The Structure Plan is not intended to be used as a stand-alone tool; rather, it should be considered in conjunction with the Transportation Master Plan and the accompanying principles, goals and policies contained in City Plan.
