ITEM NUMBER: 28 AGENDA ITEM SUMMARY DATE: January20,2004 FORT COLLINS CITY COUNCIL STAFF: Troy Jones SUBJECT Resolution 2004-011 Finding Substantial Compliance and Initiating Annexation Proceedings for Such Property to be Known as the Harmony Farm Second Annexation. RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends adoption of the Resolution EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The Harmony Farm Second Annexation consists of approximately 5.0 acres of privately owned property. The Annexation is an enclave located south of Harmony Road and east of Cambridge Avenue. The recommended zoning is the LMN zone district. BACKGROUND The annexation application complies with the applicable Colorado Revised Statutes, the Intergovernmental Agreement between Fort Collins and Larimer County, and the applicable criterion in the Fort Collins Land Use Code. The property is in the FA-1 Farming District in Larimer County. The recommended zoning is LMN. This is an involuntary annexation. In accordance with Colorado Revised Statues, when any unincorporated area is entirely contained within the boundaries of a municipality, the governing body may by ordinance annex such territory to the municipality if said area has been so surrounded for a period of not less than three years. This property has been surrounded by city since June 20, 2000. Contiguity with City limits occurs through a common boundary on the north with Ricketts Second Annexation (September 1993), on the east with the Johnson -Harmony Annexation (January 2000), on the south with the Kendal - Harmony Annexation (June 2000), and on the west with the Harmony Farm Annexation (July 1994). The property is located within the Fort Collins Growth Management Area (GMA). Staff is recommending that this property be included in the Residential Neighborhood Sign District, which was established for the purpose of regulating signs for non-residential uses in certain geographical areas of the City which may be particularly affected by such signs because of their predominantly residential use and character. A map amendment would be necessary to place this property on the Residential Neighborhood Sign District Map. THE PLANNING AND ZONING BOARD HEARING The Planning and Zoning Board will be make a recommendation on this application on February 19, 2004 at its regularly scheduled meeting.
