HomeMy WebLinkAboutFRONT RANGE REZONING & STRUCTURE PLAN AMEND. - 3-00 - SUBMITTAL DOCUMENTS - ROUND 1 - PETITION (3)Relocating the Community Commercial to Trilby Road and College Avenue allows
strong east -west connections to significant existing residential areas. This connection
does not exist at current locations.
c) whether and the extent to which the proposed amendment would result in a logical and
orderly development pattern —
This request to rezone from Commercial to Community Commercial will result in
development occurring in a logical and orderly development pattern for this area of
Fort Collins.

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

It is anticipated that pending a contract signing with Hunt Properties, Inc., which is
anticipated in the near term, that the approximate 4 acre Tract located on the north-
west corner of the intersection of College Avenue and Trilby Road will be petitioned
for Annexation into the City of Fort Collins. It will be requested that the 4 acre Tract
be included in the Community Commercial District. It will also be requested that the 4
acre Annexation and Zoning be processed and reviewed concurrently w/this
Rezoning/Amendment Application.

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 -
This property is the "Gateway to the West." Trilby Road is the only major road that goes
west of College Avenue in this area of town. The only other major roads to the west in
this area of town are: Harmony road which is 2 miles to the north and County Road 28
which is 3 miles to the south.
The proposed Community Commercial 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.
The site is at the intersection of two Major Arterials Roads: Trilby Road and College
Avenue.
The property immediately to the north is under contract for 288 Multi -Family Dwelling
Units on approximately 33 acres. It is currently zoned commercial and will allow for
the multi -family residential development. The mix of multi -family residential units
surrounding the core community center will achieve a compact urban form, City Plan
Policy LU-1 1 Compact Urban Form.
b) whether and the extent to which the proposed amendment would result in significantly
adverse impacts on the natural environment, including, but not limited to: water, air,
noise, storm water management, wildlife, vegetation, wetlands, and the natural
functioning of the environment -
There are no known significantly adverse impacts on the natural environment.
Any potential impacts on the natural environment will be protected or mitigated, Q�L
Plan Policy ENV-5 1 Protection and Enhancement.
City Plan Policy ENV-1 J Air Quality Obiectives. Air quality will be enhanced by
better access to Community Commercial as a result of Trilby Road east -west
connections.
Cily Plan Poli T-4.1 Bicycle Facilities & Qy Plan Principle T-9 Private Automobiles
will continue to be an important 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.

District: This Amendment will include the area requesting rezoning and the property
located on the northwest corner of Trilby Road and College Avenue.
The amendment to change to Community Commercial District will help provide the needed
services to this area of town.
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.
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 1h mile north of
this property that has poor access into the site an 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 Community Commercial Center for this area of town.
Residential Development has proceeded at a faster pace east and west of this site.
Trilby Road is now being realigned to the east which will serve a larger population.
City Plan Principle CCD-1: Community Commercial Districts will be a community -
wide destinations and act as hubs for a high -frequency transit system offering retail,
offices, services, small civic uses, and higher density housing. The physical
environment will promote walking, bicycling, transit and ridesharing, as well as
provide a high quality urban life for residents. Vertical mixed -use will be encouraged.
The site is also located next to two (2) Arterial Roads, Trilby Road and College
Avenue. This location will allow the potential for a high- frequency hub of
transportation systems to include: pedestrian, bicycling, transit, and better access for
vehicles, because of the access to this two Arterial Roads connecting east -west and
north -south.
The existing Community Commercial does not accommodate the potential for a
complete `hub' of transportation systems. This is because it is limited to only north -
south access and connections.
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 Community Commercial.
