The site is currently zoned Larimer County FAl- Farming, and the proposed zone district is POL-Public Open Lands. This is a voluntary annexation, located within the Urban Growth Area of the City of Fort Collins. The City may annex property located within the Urban Growth Area Boundary, provided that the property has 1/6th contiguity with the existing City boundary. The Arapaho Bend 1st Annexation complies with this requirement. The property has 2,704.36 feet of its total boundary length of 8,567.45 feet (31%) contiguous to existing City limits. This exceeds the minimum 1,427.9 feet required to achieve 1/6th contiguity. The contiguity to existing City limits is gained from the following common boundaries: S: Stute Annexation No.1; Stine Annexation No. 2 W: Harmony Annexation No. 4 The surrounding zoning and land uses are as follows: N: FA- 1(county zoning); vacant E: I -Industrial; C-Commercial (county zoning) Arapaho Bend Natural Area S: FA-1; vacant W: HC-Harmony Corridor; Hewlett Packard This property is currently zoned FA-1, Farming in Larimer County. The proposed zoning for this annexation is the POL, Public Open Lands Zoning District. The POL, Public Open Lands District is for large, publicly owned -parks and open lands which have a community -wide emphasis or other characteristics which warrant inclusion under this separate designation rather than inclusion in an adjoining neighborhood or other District designation. The purpose of the POL zone district is: ...to accommodate land use functions such as stormwater management, native wildlife habitat and sand and gravel operations, all of which depend primarily on the continued functioning of natural river systems or are incompatible with significant urban land development. The City Structure Plan designation for the area is Rural/Open Lands and Stream Corridors, and the proposed zoning is consistent with the City Structure Plan.
