HomeMy WebLinkAboutKENDALL-HARMONY ANNEXATION & ZONING - 8-00 - REPORTS - RECOMMENDATION/REPORT W/ATTACHMENTSStatement of Principles & Policies and consistency with the City Structure Plan This Statement is part of a Petition for Annexation for a piece of land known as the "Kendall -Harmony Annexation" into the City of Fort Collins. The plan that accompanies this petition shows the piece of land in its entirety, as well as adjacent landowners and the land's contiguity to the existing boundary of the City of Fort Collins. The land, which is the subject of this petition, contains 2.00 acres more or less. It is located on the south side of Harmony Road, west of the I-25 Interchange in an area designated for commercial development within the I-25 corridor as depicted on the City Structure Plan of June, 1996. The property adjacent to the subject land which is within the limits of the City of Ft. Collins is zoned Harmony Corridor (HC). In the spirit of the Fort Collins City Plan & Principles and Policies the petitioners request that upon annexation the subject land be given the HC zoning designation. It is desirable for the City of Ft. Collins to annex this property because its inclusion within City Limits will contribute to the natural and well -ordered development of the City. The subject land is located within the existing Harmony Corridor and the petitioner's plans are to include this parcel in an Overall Development Plan for the area which calls for the design and construction of a multi -use commercial, residential, and open space district. This meshes well with the City's vision for this particular "edge" of the City since its location and proposed use will provide for the economic delivery of urban.level public services and facilities. The petitioner's planned future for this land is consistent with the purpose of the City Structure Plan in the following ways: • It is within the Urban Growth Boundary • Planned development is close to urban transportation systems • The City of Fort Collins is currently supplying water to the land • Sanitary Sewer service will be provided by the City of Fort Collins This concludes the Petitioner's Statement.

The property is located within the Fort Collins Urban Growth Area (UGA).
