Home My WebLink AboutRICE HOMESTEAD ANNEXATION - 47-00 - CORRESPONDENCE - (5)Gfty of F6rt Collins City's adopted Structure Plan. A small portion of the property, at its southeast end, appears to be located in the Open Lands, Parks, Stream Corridors area on the Structure Plan. If annexed the property should come into the City in the Urban Estate District. 3. Currently the only vehicular access is from Richards Lake Road into the west end of the property. 4. The applicant must enter into the Annexation process before any site specific development plan (Subdivision Plat, Project Development Plan, etc.) can be accepted by the City for review. There will be 4 public hearings associated with the Annexation process: 1) Initiating Resolution at City Council; 2) at Planning & Zoning Board for recommendation to Council; 3) First reading at City Council; and, 4) Second Reading at City Council. The earliest the City could accept any application for a site specific development plan for review is after the annexation request goes to Council for Initiating Resolution, which generally occurs about 1 month after the annexation request is submitted to begin the process. The annexation process is approximately 3 months in length. 5. If and when annexed, and when a Project Development Plan (Subdivision Plat) request is submitted, the proposal will be subject to the Permitted Uses, Land Use Standards, and Development Standards set forth in Division 4.2 Urban Estate District of the Land Use Code. 6. A Project Development Plan request will be subject to all applicable standards set forth in Article 3 General Development Standards of the Land Use Code. Page 6 of 6 1 City of ort Co ins 1.

No comments as far as the annexation is concerned, however, there will comments at such time this property actually develops or subdivides. Standard development requirements apply with two that I would like to mention at this time. Each lot needs to meet the definition of a lot and have a 20' paved access. Also, per section 3.3.2(E) of LCUASS, this development must have an improved connection to an approved arterial street. 2. Please speak with Sheri Langenberger regarding street paving requirements and selling sub -divided lots before required improvements are made.
