The applicant, Jim Sell Design, Inc., on behalf of the property owners, Front Range Limited

The proposed Resolution makes a finding that the petition substantially complies with the Municipal
Annexation Act, determines that a hearing should be established regarding the annexation, and
directs that notice be given of the hearing. The hearing will be held at the time of first reading of the
annexation and zoning ordinances. Not less than thirty days of prior notice is required by State law.
The property is located within the Fort Collins Urban Growth Area. According to policies and
agreements between the City of Fort Collins and Larimer County contained in the Intergovernmental

property gains the required 1/6 contiguity to existing City limits from common boundaries with the
