PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE
CALL MEETING TO ORDER
ROLL CALL
1. Public Hearing and First Reading of Ordinance No. 145, 2020 Amending the Zoning Map of the City
of Fort Collins by Changing the Zoning Classification for that Certain Property Known as the Timberline
Church Rezoning. (staff: Jason Holland, Judy Schmidt; 12 minute presentation; 45 minute
discussion)
This item is a quasi-judicial matter and if it is considered on the discussion agenda, it will be considered
in accordance with Section 1(f) of the Council’s Rules of Meeting Procedures adopted in Resolution
2019-064.
At the November 17 Regular Meeting, Council voted to continue this item to the Adjourned Meeting
on November 24, 2020.
The purpose of this item is to amend the City’s Zoning Map to change the zoning designation for the
Timberline Church Campus from Low Density Mixed-Use Neighborhood (LMN) to Medium Density
Mixed-Use Neighborhood (MMN). The area proposed to be rezoned is approximately 32.79 acres.
The applicant proposes the rezoning to support future infill housing on the site and enable higher
density housing than would be allowed with the current LMN zoning. Additional commercial and
institutional uses may also be proposed. The church has been in discussions with CSU regarding a
potential land swap to construct an attainable housing project. CSU would donate their 4.76 acres on
Timberline Road, and the church will swap 8-10 acres for the CSU property.
The rezoning request is subject to the criteria in Section 2.9.4 of the Land Use Code. The rezoning
may be approved, approved with conditions, or denied by Council after receiving a recommendation
from the Planning and Zoning Board, which voted 6-0 to recommend approval of the request with
condition that the residential density be limited to 20 units per gross acre and that an Overall
Development Plan (ODP) precede or accompany the Project Development Plan (PDP). The purpose
of the condition of approval is to provide a density limit to help achieve a compatible transition with the
surrounding neighborhood because the MMN zone district does not have a maximum density
requirement. Additionally, the ODP would help identify the general design parameters for the property
– including the general location and nature of proposed uses, transportation circulation, open space,
buffers, and drainage features. A traffic study is also required. The ODP is required to be reviewed by
the Planning and Zoning Board and would require at least one neighborhood meeting.
OTHER BUSINESS
A. Possible consideration of the initiation of new ordinances and/or resolutions by Councilmembers.
(Three or more individual Councilmembers may direct the City Manager and City Attorney to initiate
and move forward with development and preparation of resolutions and ordinances not originating
from the Council's Policy Agenda or initiated by staff.)
