ITEMS NEEDING INDIVIDUAL CONSIDERATION
29. Consideration of the Appeal of the February 13, 2003 Decision of the Zoning Board of
Anneals (Appeal #2408) to Unanimously phold the Administrative Interpretation of the
Current Planning Director Regarding the Definition of "Neighborhood".
On February 13, 2003, the Zoning Board of Appeals, by a vote of 7-0, upheld written
administrative interpretation #5-02, issued by Current Planning Director Cameron Gloss. The
Director's interpretation was for the purpose of determining the "neighborhood" in which the
property at 1109 West Harmony Road is located. This interpretation was rendered in
response to Mark Brophy's request for an interpretation of elements of the City's Land Use
Code.
30. Resolution 2003-051 Approving and Adopting an Updated Natural Area Policy as a Policy
Element of the City's Comprehensive Plan.
The proposed amendments to the Natural Areas Policy reflect the growth of the Natural
Areas Program since its inception in 1992. The Natural Areas Policy has not been amended
since that time. The primary amendment expands the City's ability to pursue land
conservation in Fort Collins and regionally. To provide manageability to the geographic
reach of the City's land conservation, an inventory showing focus areas will be presented by
staff to Council.
31. Items Relating to the Strauss Lakes Development Annexation and Zoning;
A. Resolution 2003-052 Setting Forth Findings of Fact and Determinations Regarding
the Strauss Lakes Development Annexation.
B. First Reading of Ordinance No. 059, 2003, Annexing Property Known as the Strauss
Lakes Development Annexation to the City of Fort Collins.
C. First Reading of Ordinance No. 060, 2003, Amending the Zoning Map of the City of
Fort Collins and Classifying for Zoning Purposes the Property Included in the Strauss
Lakes Development Annexation.
This is a request for a 100% voluntary annexation of approximately 17.79 acres of privately
owned property located on the northeast comer of Horsetooth Road and Ziegler Road. The
recommended zoning is LMN — Low Density Mixed -Use Neighborhood.
This property is eligible for annexation according to CRS, requiring 1/6 contiguity to the
existing city limits. Strauss Lakes Development Annexation and Zoning complies with this
standard since the property has 1219 feet of its total boundary of approximately 3934 feet
contiguous to the existing City limits. This meets the minimum 656 feet required to achieve
1/6 contiguity. This contiguity occurs through a common boundary with the Webster 2nd
Annexation (July 1992).
