HomeMy WebLinkAboutHARMONY TECH. PARK THIRD FILING, SECOND REPLAT (CUSTOM BLENDING) - PDP/FDP - FDP130021 - CORRESPONDENCE - (4)Planning/Development Review Schedule:
The Planning and Development Review schedule is dependent on several factors, including the pace of
your development team's submittal and response to comments. The City of Fort Collins' Planning
Department has evaluated the potential project as described and developed the following draft
schedule. The schedule includes three different development review scenarios, which may or may not
be applicable. This schedule commits to two week turn review on all submittals, which is a decrease
from the standard review and a conceptual review hearing on April 22, 2013 (materials due: April 12,
2013). In addition, it assumes two rounds of review for each submittal (PDP/FDP), which may be
reduced based on the overall quality of the submittal and compliance with code.
■ Scenario 1— Assumes development on an adjacent site to the existing facility, as either an
addition or stand-alone building. This scenarios requires a Type I public hearing before an
administrative hearing officer.
■ Scenario 2 — Assumes development on a parcel removed from the current site. This scenario
requires a neighborhood meeting and a public hearing before the Planning & Zoning Board.
■ Scenario 3—Assumes expansion on the current site and within the boundary of the current site.
This scenario only requires administrative review and does not require a public hearing.
Please note that a building permit may be processed concurrent to the Final Development Plan (FDP)
submittal. Finally, the Planning Department is willing to hold a special conceptual review hearing for
your project as soon as April 1, 2013. However, your development team would need to submit materials
no later than March 25, 2013. This would effectively advance the schedules below by up to three weeks.
