January 21, 2011
On Thursday, February 3, 2011, from 7:00 to 9:00 p.m., at the Plymouth
Congregational Church, 916 West Prospect Road, the City of Fort Collins Current
Planning Department will conduct a neighborhood information meeting to discuss
a development proposal in your neighborhood. The project is known as The
Islamic Center at 925 West Lake Street.
As proposed, the new facility will include a Mosque (praying area), children
activity area, gymnasium and elementary school. The project will be constructed
in phases with Mosque being Phase One, the school being Phase Two and the
gymnasium being Phase Three. Phase One will consist of 11,600 square feet.
The site is 3.26 acres.
The main prayer hall will have a capacity of 340 persons and the mezzanine will
have a capacity of 130 persons. Parking will be provided onsite and also in the
existing parking lot of the Plymouth Congregational Church per a shared parking
agreement as the two congregations worship on different days — Fridays and
Sundays.
The building will not only represent Islamic architecture by including a dome and
a minaret but will also include an exterior in the Northern Colorado vernacular. In
this respect, this building will be unique in its architecture and will add to the
diverse cultural identity of Fort Collins.
The list of affected property owners for this public meeting is derived from official
records of the Larimer County Assessor. Because of the lag time between
occupancy and record keeping, or because of rental situations, a few affected
property owners may have been missed. Please feel free to notify your
neighbors concerning this pending meeting so all neighbors may have the
opportunity to attend.
Sincerely:
Ted She
Chief Planner
