REZONE REQUEST
August 13, 1999
Section 2.9.4(H) of the Fort Collins Land Use Code specifies a list of criterion that must be satisfied, and
another list of criterion that may be considered by the Planning and Zoning Board and the City Council
before a recommendation of approval is warranted. The following information addresses these criterion.
1) Must be satisfied — the proposed amendment must be consistent with the City's Comprehensive Plan
and/or warranted by changed conditions within the neighborhood surrounding and including the
subject property.
The proposed amendment fixes a staff error, and brings the site into compliance with the City's
Comprehensive Plan. The structure plan identifies the site as "Poudre River Corridor," which is
consistent with a "Community Commercial, River" (CCR) zoning designation.
2) May be considered — the extent to which the proposed amendment is compatible with existing and
proposed uses surrounding the subject land, and is the appropriate zone district for the land.
The proposed amendment is the logical extension of a finger of the CCR zoning district to the north.
3) May be considered — the extend to which the proposed amendment would result in significantly
adverse impacts on the natural environment, including, but not limited to, water, air, noise, stormwater
management, wildlife, vegetation, wetlands and the natural functioning of the environment.
The proposed amendment has no significant adverse impacts on the natural environment.
4) May be considered — the extent to which the proposed amendment would result in a logical and
orderly development pattern.
As stated in the response #2 above, the proposed amendment is the logical extension of a finger of the
CCR zoning district to the north.
