HomeMy WebLinkAboutINTERSTATE LAND - ODP - 49-02A - REPORTS - MEMO / P & Z BOARDSection 3.7.3(E)(1)(a) states:
"For transportation facilities, at a minimum, the city shall require
that, at the time of issuance of any Building Permit issued pursuant
to a site specific development plan, all necessary facilities and
services, as described in Section (D)(1) above, are either:
1, in place and available to serve the new development in
accordance with the development agreement, or
2. funding for such improvements has been appropriated by the
city or provided by the developer in the form of either cash,
nonexpiring letter of credit, or escrow in a form acceptable to
the city."
The City's LUC states that a site specific development plan shall mean and
be limited to a final plan as .approved pursuant to this Land Use Code.
Therefore, the Interstate Land, ODP may be reviewed and approved by
the Planning and Zoning Board at this time, with the knowledge that
subsequent Final Compliance plans for the Interstate Land property cannot
be approved by the City until the aforementioned Adequate Public Facilities
requirements are satisfied. The ODP notes that certain transportation -
related infrastructure features in the area are found to be deficient or
substandard to the current City urban development standards (General
Notes 14 - 17). It further notes that the property owner/applicant will
work with the Colorado Department of Transportation and the City of Fort
Collins with respect to improvements to the transportation systems in the
area (General Note 18).

MEMORANDUM
Date: January 15, 2004
To: Planning and Zoning Board
From: Steve Olt
Re: Interstate Land, Overall Development Plan (ODP) - #49-02A
The purpose of this memorandum is to provide additional information (in Comic Sans
MS bold text) to the Transportation section of the Planning and Zoning Board STAFF
REPORT for consideration at the Board's January 15, 2004, public hearing. The
following information becomes part of the Staff Report and the Board's deliberation.
3. Transportation:
Primary access points to the property will be via future streets to and through the site from
East Prospect Road and the Frontage Road. Boxelder Creek is along the east side of the
Interstate Land, ODP, between proposed development and the Frontage Road, and it
effectively decreases the ability to provide multiple access points to the east. The ODP
shows the proposed major access points (graphically shown with arrows) to the property.
The actual local street locations and alignments will be further determined with site specific
project development plans.
• Actual physical development on the Interstate Land, ODP property at this
time would result in a reduction in the levels of transportation services in
the area because of deficiencies associated with the Interstate 25 &
Prospect Road interchange, the Frontage Road, East Prospect Road east of
Timberline Road, and the East Prospect Road & Summit View Drive
intersection. In Section 3.7.3 - Adequate Public Facilities in the LUC,
under Section 3.7.3(C)(2)(b) it states:
"No site specific development plan or Building Permit shall be
approved or issued in a manner that will result in a reduction in the
levels of service below the adopted level of service standards for the
affected facility."
