Conditions have not changed since the adoption of this plan in 1986 to warrant the rezoning. The proposed zoning will help facilitate the conversion of adjacent lots west of this site into uses other than single family, which the plan intends to prevent. Please be aware that ownership/rental status is not sufficient enough to base a rezoning decision upon. We see no grounds to support the requested rezoning, and therefore recommend denial of the rezoning application. Current Planning: In the event the rezoning request proceeds to the Planning and Zoning Board and City Council for consideration, a neighborhood meeting will need to be held. The City would arrange the meeting, the applicant will need to attend to present the requested change. This meeting must be held prior to scheduling the item on a Planning and Zoning Board Agenda. Please inform the Current Planning Department if you wish to proceed with the rezoning request. If you wish to proceed, the rezoning request would be presented to the Planning and Zoning Board with a recommendation of disapproval from staff. Sincerely, Bo Barkeen City Planner 281 North College Avenue • PO. Box 580 • Fort Collins, CO 80522-0580 • (970) 221-6750 • FAX (970) 416-2020
