square feet reduces are existing open space in the Foothills Residential
zone by 13,122 square feet. The current PDP submittal designates 8.22 acres
or54 % of the RF zone as open space. The 13,122 square foot transfer would
reduce the RF open space by .30 acres or 2%, leaving a 5P% open space
designation in the RF zone. Under the Foothills Residential zone definition,
only 50% is required. This transfer does not effect the 4.57 acres of open
space in the LMN zone or the Citys 3.7 acre detention pond.
Submittal documents that would have to be modified for this change at final
are of course the Plat, and the Site Plan open space calculations. Also a
drainage swale behind these lots will need to be shifted an additional 5 to
10 feet to the west on the Grading Plan. I met with Wes Lamarque and Jay
Barber on the site and they stated they are willing to provide written
authorization in favor of this modification to the PDP stating it will have
no negative effect on stormwater drainage.
Please consider this request and let me know if transferring the property as
specified in this request is or is not acceptable to you.

Stormwater has no problem with the land transfer. The issues with the drainage swale can be addressed
with the Bella Vira PDP.

Regarding: Transfer of open space from un-platted Bella Vira development
plan to neighboring property owners in The Ponds
On August 9, 2006 OFP Development Company quit claimed 3301 square feet of
un-platted property within the approved Bella Vira Preliminary Development
Plan to a neighboring property owner. The land transferred was designated as
open space in the PDP. Prior to the transfer the neighboring property owner
who purchased the property and I had extensive discussions with the City of
Fort Collins Stormwater, Current Planning, Building & Zoning and Natural
Resources departments. This land transfer was found to be acceptable and
verbally authorized by all the departments contacted.
After transferring the property we were contacted by additional neighboring
homeowners in The Ponds who were interested in being able to expand their
backyards and wanting a similar deal. Currently nine neighbors are
requesting to purchase an area extending the width of their lots a distance
of 15' to the north. Each of these 6 lots are approximately 70' wide which
increases each lot by approximately 1050 square feet and is a total of 9821
square feet. Adding the 9821 square feet to the already transferred 3301
