to CRS, requiring 1/6 contiguity to the existing city limits. The Fossil Creek Wetlands Annexation
complies with this standard since the property has 4,990.54 feet of its total boundary of
approximately 9,858.02 feet contiguous to the existing City limits. This meets the minimum 1,643
feet required to achieve 1/6 contiguity. This contiguity occurs through a common boundary with
the Union Pacific South Fourth Annexation (May 1988), and the Greenstone Annexation (January
1993).
The surrounding zoning and land uses as follows:
N: FA-1 Farming District in Larimer County — existing agricultural, single family housing
(Paragon Estates),
S: POL — existing Fossil Creek Wetland Natural Area,
E: FA-1 Farming District in Larimer County — existing agricultural,
W: POL — existing Union Pacific Railroad tracks, existing Fossil Creek Wetland Natural Area.
ZONING AND ANALYSIS:
The property is currently zoned FA-1 Farming District in Larimer County. The requested zoning
for this annexation is the Public Open Lands District (POL). The City's adopted Structure Plan, a
part of City Plan, designates the site as Rural/Open Lands and Stream Corridors. A zoning
designation of POL is consistent with the Structure Plan designation of Rural/Open Lands and
Stream Corridors.
PLANNING AND ZONING BOARD RECOMMENDATION:
The Planning and Zoning Board conducted a public hearing on the annexation and zoning request
at its meeting on October 21, 1999. At that meeting, the Board recommended, by a vote of 7-0,
approval of the annexation and of the POL — Public Open Lands Zoning Designation.
