East Mulberry Corridor Plan
The tract of land is located within the East Mulberry Corridor Plan, adopted in 2002, which covers an area of
approximately 3.5 square miles of along both sides of East Mulberry Street between Riverside Drive and I-25 in
Fort Collins and Larimer County within the Growth Management Area. The Plan states:
“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.”
According to the East Corridor Plan Land Use Map, the subject tract of land should be placed into the Industrial
zone district. The proposed zoning, Industrial (I), complies with the subarea plan.
Zoning
The proposed zoning for this annexation is the Industrial (I) Zone District. 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.”
Additionally, staff recommends that the subject property be included in the Residential Neighborhood Sign
District, which was established for regulating signs for non-residential uses in predominantly residential settings.
CITY FINANCIAL IMPACTS
No direct financial impacts result of the proposed zoning.
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. Since the item
remained on the Planning and Zoning Board’s Consent Calendar, minutes from the hearing will not be
provided.
PUBLIC OUTREACH
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.
A neighborhood meeting was held on August 29, 2019, for the annexation and zoning and conceptual plans for
the Timberline-International property.
