Compatability with future Mason Street Corridor plans
I have no comments from a code standpoint. My concern is compatability of
the placement of a very large WTE facility in a corridor designated for future
development as a north -south multi -modal corridor running the lenght of Fort
Collins. The Mason Street Corridor will emphasize Transit Oriented
Development principles and will make the corridor proximate to the BNSF
railroad tracks a strong focus of redevelopment activity. We have talked with
the owner of the storage facility in which the WTE is proposed about the
redevelopment potential of his land, which will be quite close to a transit stop as
well as the redeveloped University Hills activity area. My fear is that an
unsightly, large WTE facility may ultimately hamper redevelopment efforts
along this portion of the corridor. I would respectfully request the landowner
take the future value and use of the Mason Street Multimodal Corridor into
account in his plans for his property.
Be sure and return all of your redlined plans when you re -submit.
If you have questions regarding these issues or any other issues related to this project,
please feel free to call me at (970) 221-6750.
