SUBJECT
ITEM NUMBER: 17
DATE: October 19, 2004
STAFF: Bob Barkeen
Resolution 2004-123 Finding Substantial Compliance and Initiating Annexation Proceedings for the
Liebl Annexation.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends adoption of the Resolution.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The Liebl Annexation is a request to annex and zone 2.8 acres of land located along the east side of
Timberline Road, south of Kechter Road. The site contains an existing single family residence and
detached garage. The parcel is designated UE — Urban Estate on the Fort Collins Structure Plan and
the Fossil Creek Reservoir Area Plan. The anticipated land use is a bed and breakfast consistent
with the design standards in the UE zone district. The parcel is currently zoned FA1 - Farming in
Larimer County.
The proposed Resolution states it is the City's intent to annex this property and directs that the
notice required by State Statutes be given of the Council's hearing to consider the annexation
ordinance. The public hearing for the annexation ordinance must occur no less than 30 days and no
greater than 60 days from adoption of the Resolution finding compliance with State Statutes.
BACKGROUND
This property is eligible for annexation according to the Colorado Annexation Act, which requires
1/6 contiguity to the existing city limits. The Liebl Annexation complies with this standard since
the property has 347 feet of the total 1,947 contiguous to the existing city limits. This meets the
minimum 325 feet required to achieve 1/6 contiguity. This contiguity occurs through a common
boundary with the property to the east (across Timberline Road) of the parcel
The property is located within the Fort Collins Urban Growth Area (UGA). According to policies
and agreements between the City of Fort Collins and Larimer County, contained in the
Intergovernmental Agreement for the Fort Collins Urban Growth Area (last amended November
2000), the City will pursue the annexation of land into the City of Fort Collins when such lands are
eligible for annexation according to Colorado Revised Statutes (CRS).
