This new development proposal will go through a 3-week review by City staff. On Wednesday morning, April 20th, this item will be discussed by staff and the applicant (Campus Crest at Fort Collins, LLC) at a staff review meeting at 281 North College Avenue. At this meeting staff will determine if the ODP can be scheduled for a Planning & Zoning Board public hearing, where a decision (approval or denial) would be made by the Board. The earliest possible Board public hearing date would be May 19, 2011. This new ODP, now submitted, will be reviewed by City staff concurrent with The Grove at Fort Collins, Project Development Plan (PDP) that was submitted on December 8, 2010 and has been through one round of development review. Staff issued a comment letter to the applicant on January 4, 2011 stating that a second round of review is required. To date, staff is awaiting a submittal of revised plans for the POP. Once submitted these plans will go through the required 2-week review by staff. At the and of the 2 weeks the item will be discussed by staff and the applicant at a Wednesday morning staff review meeting. To ensure conformance of The Grove at Fort Collins, POP with an ODP of record, the new Amended CSURF Centre for Advanced Technology, ODP would have to be approved before the Board would be able to approve the POP. Both items could possibly be heard and discussed at the same public hearing. Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have questions or need additional information regarding the City's development review process.

Development Plan (ODP) to me? When will the two neighborhood meetings begin for this new Overall for the referenced CSURF ground? And will you email a copy of the ODP Additionally, a PDP references and fits within an ODP. How is it that this PDP exists outside that customary framework? I would expect a new PDP aligned with and referencing the new ODP. Not a PDP that was aligned with the ODP that was so thoroughly voted down by City Council. Thank you, Kevin K.

Therefore, another neighborhood meeting will not be held because the neighborhood meeting requirement set forth in Section 2.2.2(B) of the Land Use Code has been met. You can access the CSURF ODP documents in the City's Public FTP Site as follows: From you computer, FTP files can be accessed by both the public and city employees. Please follow these instructions: • Go to the "run" option • Use the following text: eaplorer.eae Ltp:Hgw-downiond:ven53dorgln52.fgzov.com/ If you have difficulty accessing the information please contact Courtney Rippy in Current Planning at crippy@fcgovtom . As stated in Section 2.4.2(H) of the Land Use Code: "when a project development plan is within the boundaries of an approved overall development plan, the project development plan shall be consistent with the overall development plan". The Grove at Fort Collins, PDP submitted on December 8, 2010 for development review remains in our process; however, because it is not consistent with certain elements (such as the Rolland Moore Drive street alignment and the proposed local street connection into the adjacent neighborhood) of the CSURF Centre for Advanced Technology ODP of record; and, because the previous Amended CSURF Centre for Advanced Technology CDP was denied by City Council on December 21, 2010, it was necessary for the applicant to submit another Amended OOP that must be reviewed and approved by the Planning & Zoning Board. The current PDP must then be reviewed against and demonstrate consistency with the new CDP, if approved. Whether or not both the CDP and the PDP will be heard and discussed at the same Board public hearing is still to be determined. This is the procedure most commonly used by City staff in evaluating a PDP that is part of an CDP. Also, please note that the Institute for the Built Environment (IBE at CSU), Campus Crest of Fort Collins LLC and the projects' design team will be hosting an open house on Wednesday, April 27th, for the purpose of presenting revised plans for The Grove at Fort Collins PDP and the new Amended CSURF Centre for Advanced Technology ODP to neighbors and interested parties. Apparently there will be multiple stations set up where anyone can talk to representatives from IBE, Campus Crest or their design team about various aspects of the 4/1/2011 Page 1 of 5 Steve Olt From: Kevin Barrier [kevin@kevinbarrier.com] Sent: Thursday, March 31, 2011 5:43 PM To: Steve Olt Cc: David Roy Subject: Re: submittal of new Amended CSURF Centre for Advanced Technology Overall Development Plan Mr. Olt, Thank you for the link. I'll down load those after work today. Two comments: This is a question for Mr. Roy. How is a neighborhood meeting on an ODP valid without any detail whatsoever about the ODP itself? The neighborhood meeting on the l8th, was 73 days ago, and had no detail regarding this ODP. There were only references to the ODP that was voted down. Even after Council Directed Staff and Karen Cumbo to ensure the process is fair to all parties now were skipping neighborhood meetings. And thats exactly what your proposing here. You can't have a valid meeting if the subject details are 73 days later. • You stated above that, As stated in Section 2.4.2(H) of the Land Use Code: "when a project development plan is within the boundaries of an approved overall development plan, the project development plan shall be consistent with the overall development plan". This PDP is not, "current" and should not be considered as such. It was submitted last Dec. 8th under an ODP that was determined to be not acceptable by our City Council. It can not be current because as the ODP was denied. Thus that PDP is not consistent with the EXISTING ODP. There must be a new PDP, brought forward to todays dates, designed to be consistent with the new ODP. As for IBE meetings they are no substitute for the City's process and should not be considered a substitute for that process. Mr. Roy please respond with your thoughts on these two issues.
