Community Appearance and Design
To the greatest extent possible buildings within the Inverness
Innovation Park will be designed to support the City plan Policies and
Principals. These policies and principles will be addressed at PDP
submittal. (refer to PDP submittal-RM12, which is proposed for parcel A).
Economic Sustainability and Development
The Inverness Innovation Park will take advantage of its close
proximity to the vibrant Old Town center. The development will take
advantage of Old Town's existing services and amenities. The proximity
to the city center will be an important factor and sales tool in attracting
future tenants to this development. The project will be designed with a
strong identity; will contribute to the urban fabric and enhance the
tenant's sense of community. The proposed development will look to
recent successful projects within the immediate vicinity (new Belgium
brewery, Old town North) in order to contribute to an emerging identity
within this fringe/corridor community. The project will support those
higher standards of design and contribute to a sense of permanence and
sustainability within the greater city.

positions.

Project Description:
The Inverness Innovation Park project is a proposed development for a site on the north
and south sides of East Vine Drive located between North College Avenue (to the west) and
Linden Street (to the east). Neighboring properties include the Old Town North mixed use
development to the north, and the Inverness Farm property to the west. The sites within the
development are zoned CCN, Community Commercial North College District north of East Vine
Drive and CCR, Community Commercial-Poudre River District to the south of East Vine Drive.
The permitted land uses of this zoning support the proposed land uses of this project.
The proposed site allows for commercial/retail and industrial development within close
proximity of the Old Town center. The amenities and commercial core of Fort Collin's Old Town
will help support the growth of this corridor/fringe community.
Urban Development Partners, Preview Architecture+Planning, Vignette Studios and
Apex Engineering look forward to working closely with City Staff in an effort to receive project
approval as swiftly as possible.
