BACKGROUND / DISCUSSION
History
The Applicant has submitted a written petition requesting three sequential annexations. Timberline-International
Annexation No. 1. is the first of this series of three sequential annexations, and totals 0.09 acres of North
Timberline Road right-of-way, which establishes 1/6 perimeter boundary contiguity with the existing municipal
boundaries to the north, located northeast of the North Timberline Road and International Boulevard intersection,
into Fort Collins’ municipal boundaries, as well as into the Residential Neighborhood Sign District.
The property is located within the Fort Collins Growth Management Area (GMA). Pursuant to the
Intergovernmental Agreement (Regarding Cooperation on Managing Urban Development) between Larimer
County and the City, the City agrees to consider annexation of property in the GMA when the property is eligible
for annexation according to State law.

Contiguity
The land within Annexation No. 1 consists of 0.09-acres of North Timberline Road right-of-way, with a total
contiguous perimeter (80 feet) of 26%, which satisfies the one-sixth (1/6) area required. Contiguity is gained
from the 2002 East Ridge Annexation.
Enclave Implications
Annexing this 0.09-acre street right-of-way does not create (nor does it contribute to creating) an enclave.
Previous Council Actions
On December 17, 2019, City Council unanimously adopted Resolutions 2019-112, 2019-113, and 2019-114,
initiating a series of annexations of right-of-way and the property owned by FR Holdings, Ltd., which accepted
the annexation petitions and determined that the petitions followed all applicable state laws and notification
requirements.
CITY FINANCIAL IMPACTS
No direct financial impacts result from the proposed Timberline-International Annexation No. 1.
BOARD / COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION
At its December 19, 2019, meeting, the Planning and Zoning Board voted 5-0 to recommend approval of the
annexation and recommend that the property be placed in the Industrial (I) Zone District, as well as into the
Residential Neighborhood Sign District. Since the item remained on the Planning and Zoning Board’s
Consent Calendar, minutes from the hearing will not be provided.
PUBLIC OUTREACH
Notice of this annexation was published as required by Colorado Revised Statues (“C.R.S”) Section 31-12-108.
Notice was mailed to the owners of parcels abutting the right-of-way pursuant to C.R.S. Section 31-12-105.
A neighborhood meeting was held on August 29, 2019, for the annexation and zoning and conceptual plans for
the Timberline-International property.
