#18-05 Kingdom Hall Annexation and Zoning N
5/31/2005 1 inch: 600 feet
June 7. 2005 -4 Item No. 20 A-C
Planning and Zoning Board Recommendation:
On May 19, 2005, the Planning and Zoning Board took the following action:
1. Voted 6 - 0 to recommend annexation into the municipal boundary and inclusion into the
Residential Sign District.
2. Voted 6 - 0 to recommend placement into the U-E, Urban Estate zone district.
ATTACHMENTS
1. Vicinity Map
2. Annexation Petition
June 7, 2005 -3- Item No. 20 A-C
Zoning:
The proposed zoning for the Kingdom Hall Annexation is U-E, Urban Estate. This district is
intended to be a setting for a predominance of low -density and large -lot housing. In addition, the
zone provides for the Residential Cluster Plan Development option. The main purposes of this
District are to acknowledge the presence of the many existing subdivisions which have
developed in these uses that function as parts of the community and to provide additional
locations for similar development, typically in transitional locations between more intense urban
development and rural or open lands.
The requested zoning of U-E complies with the City's Structure Plan Map.
In addition, Staff recommends the parcel be placed within the Residential Neighborhood Sign
District which was created for the purpose of regulating signs for non-residential uses in certain
geographic locations of the City.
Compliance with State Law:
As mentioned, the annexation has 3 1 % of its perimeter boundary contiguous with existing City
limits which exceeds the required one -sixth as mandated by State law. Further, the parcel is
found to have a community of interest with the City and the parcel is expected to urbanize
shortly.
Findings of Fact/Conclusion:
In evaluating the request for the Kingdom Hall Annexation and Zoning, Staff makes the
following findings of fact:
1 The annexation of this parcel is consistent with the policies and agreements between
Larimer County and the City of Fort Collins, as contained in the amended
Intergovernmental Agreement — Growth Management Area.
2. The parcel meets all criteria included in State law to qualify for annexation by the City of
Fort Collins.
3. The requested zone district, U-E, Urban Estate, is in conformance with the City's
Comprehensive Plan (City Plan) and the City Structure Plan Map.
4. Staff recommends the parcel be placed within the Residential Neighborhood Sign
District.
5. On May 3, 2005, City Council approved the Resolution which accepted the annexation
petition and determines that the petition is in compliance with State law.
June 7, 2005 -2- Item No. 20 A-C
parcel, therefore, complies with the requirements of the Intergovernmental Agreement - Growth
Management Area and is eligible for annexation.
This is a 100% voluntary annexation for a property located within the Growth Management
Area. The property satisfies the requirement that no less than one -sixth of the perimeter
boundary be contiguous to the existing City boundary. The recommended zoning of U-E, Urban
Estate, is in compliance with the City's Comprehensive Plan and Structure Plan Map. Staff
recommends the parcel be placed within the Residential Neighborhood Sign District. The
Initiating Resolution was considered , by City Council on May 3, 2005 and approved On May
19, 2005, the Planning and Zoning Board voted 6-0 to recommend approval of both the
annexation and U-E zoning to the City Council.
Background:
According to the policies and agreements between the City of Fort Collins and Larimer County,
contained in the amended (November 21, 2000) Intergovernmental Agreement - Growth
Management Area (IGA), the City will agree to consider for annexation property in the
U.G.M.A. when such property is eligible for annexation according to State law. According to
Section 8A of the IGA, as amended:
"It is the City's intent to annex properties within the GMA as expeditiously as possible
consistent with the terms of this Agreement. Except as provided in Section 8(B), the City agrees
to consider the annexation of any parcel or parcels of land located within the GMA which are
eligible for voluntary annexation pursuant to the provisions of Title 31, Article 12 Colorado
Revised Statutes."
The surrounding zoning and land uses are as follows:
N: FA-1 (County); Existing rural residential
S: FA -I (County); Existing rural residential
E: FA-1 (County); Existing rural residential
W: R-L; Existing subdivision (Willow Springs)
W: L-M-N; Existing restored historic farmhouse
The parcel gains the necessary one -sixth contiguity along the entire west property line. Of the
total perimeter boundary, the parcel has 31 % contiguity with the City limits. This substantially
exceeds the required minimum of 16.66% (one -sixth). The parcel, therefore, complies with the
requirements of the Intergovernmental Agreement — Growth Management Area and is eligible
for annexation.
One of the stated intents of the Agreement is to have urban development occur within the City in
order that the provision of urban level services by the County would be minimized This is a
100% voluntary annexation. The parcel is not an enclave. On February 15, 2005, City Council
approved a Resolution which accepted the annexation petition and established that the petition is
in compliance with State statutes.
