Dear Anne,
The City of Fort Collins Recreation Division has been in discussions with Home
State Bank who has purchased the property on the corner of Shields Street and
Raintree Avenue. Home State Bank intends to build a 6600 square foot facility
on this property with the intent of running a banking operation. They will also
lease approximately 2450 square feet to other businesses (book store, coffee
shop, etc.)
As part of their planning process, they have expressed interest in entering into a
governmental agreement with the City of Fort Collins for the sole purpose of
increasing their client parking at this facility. Additionally, the cooperative parking
will provide additional space for the Senior Center users after business hours.
The City is interested in exploring the opportunities presented by this offer and is
in support of Home State Bank's initial site plan. All final drawings will need the
approval of the City prior to construction. Construction will need to be
coordinated between the City and Raintree Animal Hospital to facilitate sewer
connections and removal of the existing Animal Hospital/Senior Center parking
lot access area.
Thank you for this opportunity to express the City's interest in developing
additional parking that will meet the needs of the community's older population.
Sincerely,
Steve Budner
Recreation Administrator
