RE: Larimer County Community Corrections Facility
Dear Ms. Cornell,
On Thursday, July 17, 2003, at the regular meeting of the City of Fort Collins Planning and
Zoning Board, the Board voted 4-1 to disapprove the Larimer County Community Corrections
Facility, File #19-03.
Three of the Board members expressed that the location of the proposed facility is inappropriate
because of the close proximity of the facility to existing schools in the neighborhood.
One Board members expressed that the character of the proposed facility is inappropriate
because of the introduction of metal siding as a construction material into the neighborhood, and
that such a material was viewed as incompatible with the existing character of the neighborhood.
Two Board members expressed that the extent of the proposed facility is inappropriate because
they viewed the traffic impacts of the project to the intersection of Prospect Road and Timberline
Road would be levels that are viewed to be higher than acceptable.
Written minutes of the meeting will be provided to you prior to the hearing date for this
item with the Board of County Commissioners.
If you have any questions regarding this action by the Planning and Zoning Board, please feel
free to call me our office at (970) 221-6750.
