City Plan Policy T-4 1 Bicycle Facilities & City Plan Principle T-9 Private Automobiles will continue to be an
ftortant means of transportation. Existing and planned residents will have more direct access to the Community
Commercial Center because of the location of two major arterial roads with planned bicycle facilities.

Trilby Road and College Avenue allows strong east -west connections to significant existing residential areas. This
connection does not exist at current locations.

This request to rezone from Commercial to Neighborhood Commercial Center (N-C) and Medium Density Mixed -
Use District (M-M-N) will result in development occurring in a logical and orderly development pattern for this area
of Fort Collins.
The proposed rezoning will provide services that will benefit the greater community surrounding the site as a result
of the access provided by College Avenue and Trilby Road.
The development will occur in multiple phasing over approximately a 10-year period accomplishing the intent of the
City of Fort Collins Comprehensive Plan.

per acre achieved with a mix of housing types which could include: small lot single family, duplexes, town homes,
accessory units, multi family housing, group homes, or dwelling units stacked above or mixed with office or work
space.
The amendment to change to Neighborhood Commercial Center (N-C) and Medium Density Mixed -Use District (M-M-N)
will help to implement Policy M-M-N-2 by a site layout and design which forms a transition and link between
surrounding neighborhoods and Neighborhood Commercial Center Districts (N-C)
The amendment to change to Neighborhood Commercial Center (N-C) and Medium Density Mixed -Use District (M-M-N)
will help to implement Policy M-M-N-3 by providing uses to meet consumer demand from surrounding Residential
Districts for everyday goods and services, and will be a pedestrian oriented place that serves as a focal point for the
surrounding neighborhood. The amendment to change to Neighborhood Commercial Center (N-C) and Medium
Density Mixed -Use District (M-M-N) will help provide the needed services to this area of town. These services will
be easily accessible to nearby neighborhoods located along Trilby Road including Ridgeview, Brittany Knolls,
Provincetown, and other neighborhoods as well as those along Skyway Drive including Huntington Hills and
Skyview Estates.
The amendment to change to Neighborhood Commercial Center (N-C) and Medium Density Mixed -Use District (M-M-N)
will help to implement Policy M-M-N-3.1 Land Uses/ Grocery Store Characters. A central reason for the rezoning is
the potential for development of a supermarket on this site as the primary functional offering of these centers. A mix
of retail, professional office, and other services oriented to serve the surrounding neighborhoods are the secondary
offerings. The Neighborhood Commercial Center will provide locations for some limited auto -related uses
The amendment to change to Neighborhood Commercial Center (N-C) and Medium Density Mixed -Use District (M-M-N)
will help to implement Policy M-M-N-3.2 Surrounding Neighborhoods. The Neighborhood Commercial Center will
be integrated into the surrounding Medium Density Mixed -Use Neighborhood contributing to the neighborhood's
positive identity and image. Residents will be easily able to get to the center with reduced need to use arterial streets
by way of Skyway Drive and Trilby Road
The project will have strict design standards and guidelines to assure a unified development that will contribute positively
to the surrounding neighborhoods, City Plan Policy LU-2.2 Urban Design. In addition, a portion of M-M-N along
the western boundary of the site will buffer the Neighborhood Commercial Center from the residential area to the
west.
b) warranted by changed conditions within the neighborhood surrounding and including the subject property -
City Plan Policy LU 3.2 Amendments. Acknowledges that change will be necessary and will be reviewed and
evaluated on a regular basis.
There is an existing Community Commercial zoning district within a'h mile north of this property that has poor
access into the site and no traffic signal. This existing Community Commercial site is not located at a major hub of
transportation systems to accommodate this type of use. The proposed Amendment to the Structure Plan and
Rezoning will accommodate a Neighborhood Commercial Center (N-C) and Medium Density Mixed -Use District
(M-M-N) for this area of town.
Residential Development has proceeded at a rapid pace east and west of this site.
In response to City Plan Policy LU-3.2 Amendments, the Development team has agreed to hold neighborhood
meetings to resolve the neighborhood issues pertaining to amending the structure plan from Commercial to
Neighborhood Commercial Center (N-C) and Medium Density Mixed -Use District (M-M-N).
3. Additional Considerations for Quasi -Judicial Rezonings
a) whether and the extent to which the proposed amendment is compatible with existing and proposed uses surrounding
the subject land, and is the appropriate zone district for the land -
The proposed Neighborhood Commercial Center (N-C) and Medium Density Mixed -Use District (M-M-N) will be
compatible to the existing and proposed uses surrounding the property. The surrounding properties are: Commercial
Development on the east side of College, and Single Family Residential Neighborhoods to the west.

2. Mandatory Requirements for Quasi -Judicial Rezonings.
a) consistent with the City's Comprehensive Plan —
The proposed Zoning Districts of N-C and M-M-N will require an Amendment to the City of Fort Collins Structure Plan.
The proposed Amendment to the Structure Plan is to change the Commercial Corridor District at this site to
Neighborhood Commercial Center (N-C) and Medium Density Mixed -Use District (M-M-N). This Amendment will
include the area requesting rezoning and the property located on the west side of College Avenue between Trilby
Road and Skyway Drive.
The amendment to change to Neighborhood Commercial Center (N-C) and Medium Density Mixed -Use District (M-M-N)
will help to implement Policy T-1.1 Land Use Patterns by providing for the implementation of land use patterns, that
support effective transit, an efficient roadway system, and alternative transportation modes. Appropriate residential
densities and non- residential land uses should be within walking distances of transit stops, permitting public transit to
become a viable alternative to the automobile.
The amendment to change to Neighborhood Commercial Center (N-C) and Medium Density Mixed -Use District (M-M-N)
will help to implement Policy T-1.2 Multi Modal Streets by providing for safe and convenient use of all modes of
travel including motor vehicles, transit, bicycles, and pedestrians. We anticipate creating a north south street through
the site approximately 700 feet west of College Avenue, which will serve the project site as well as provide for
alternative transportation modes.
