SUBJECT
Public Hearing and First Reading of Ordinance No. 091, 2016, Amending the Zoning Map of the City of Fort
Collins and Classifying for Zoning Purposes the Property Included in the Majestic Place Annexation to the City
of Fort Collins, Colorado.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
This item is a quasi-judicial matter and if it is considered on the discussion agenda it will be considered in
accordance with the procedures described in Section 1(d) of the Council's Rules of Meeting Procedures
adopted in Resolution 2015-091.
The purpose of this item is to zone the property included in the Majestic Place Annexation, located at 2150
Rock Castle Lane (southeast of Timberline Road and Trilby Road), into the Urban Estate zone district.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends adoption of the Ordinance on First Reading.
BACKGROUND I DISCUSSION
The requested zoning for this annexation is U-E Urban Estate, which conforms with the City Structure Plan and
the land use framework in the Fossil Creek Reservoir Area Plan.
Context
The surrounding zoning and land uses are as follows:
N: LMN & U-E in the City of Fort Collins; Single-family Residential & Goddard School
E: FA1 - Farming in Larimer County, Single-family Residential
S: FA1 - Farming in Larimer County, Single-family Residential
W: U-E in the City of Fort Collins; Fort Collins Colorado Temple (The Church of Jesus Christ of
Latter-day Saints)
Zoning
The proposed zoning for the subject annexation is U-E Urban Estate. The Urban Estate District is intended to
be a setting for a predominance of low -density and large -lot housing. The main purposes of this District are
to acknowledge the presence of the many existing subdivisions which have developed in these uses that
function as parts of the community and to provide additional locations for similar development, typically in
transitional locations between more intense urban development and rural or open lands.
CITY FINANCIAL IMPACTS
There are no direct financial impacts as a result of the proposed zoning

discussion regarding access and signage to the subject parcel. Planner Lorson also confirmed

other public infrastructure, which is provided by private development and then adopted by the
COFC. He also confirmed that property to the south and east could also be annexed in the
future.

Planning and Zoning Board

DRAFT
Project: Majestic Place Annexation and Zoning
Project Description: The purpose of this item is to annex and zone the Majestic Place
property. The applicant, Suburban Land Reserve Inc. c/o Mr. Kenneth Merritt, has submitted a
written petition requesting annexation of 19.93 acres located at 2150 Rock Castle Lane
(southeast of Timberline Road and Trilby Road) which is presently vacant. The requested
zoning for this annexation is Urban Estate, U-E. In accordance with the Intergovernmental
Agreement for the Fort Collins Growth Management Area with Larimer County, the City of Fort
Collins agrees to annex land that meets the minimum contiguity requirement, and based on a
voluntary petition to annex for the purpose of redeveloping the subject parcel.
Recommendation: Approval
Staff and Applicant Presentations
Planner Lorson provided an overview of the project, which is a 100% voluntary annexation into
Fort Collins. He discussed the zoning and the association with existing municipal boundaries of
Fort Collins. It is planned to be annexed on August 161h with City Council. Ken Merritt, with JR
Engineering representing the applicant, Suburban Land Reserve, gave an overview of the
project as well, illustrating the project with maps and showing the land boundaries and
surrounding areas with respect to the City's City and Structure Plan.
Member Hobbs asked about the exclusion of property in the southwest corner, and Mr. Merrick
explained the history of this property and the fact that the LDS Church would be retaining that
southwest corner in perpetuity, which was a stipulation by the former owner upon the sale of the
property.
Planner Lorson stated that this annexation meets the LUC standards, is within the Growth
Management Area, and is consistent with the City Structure Plan. There is also an agreement
with the County regarding access to Rock Castle Lane. Vice Chair Hart asked about the
resolution approval by Council, and Planner Lorson responded affirmatively.
Public Input
Linda Archer, 6439 Garrison Court, has a concern about the potential implications of this
annexation, including City costs, tax implications, or other issues. She feels that there are too
many building and zoning exceptions and variations currently being allowed.
John Siegmund, 6860 Silver Mist Lane, is concerned because he is unsure whether Rock
Castle Lane will remain private, so he is seeking assurance that it won't become a public road
or lead to the future annexation of his property.
Staff Response and Board Questions
Planner Lorson responded how areas are identified for annexation as a result of long-term
planning and the inter -governmental agreement with the County. Rock Castle Lane will remain
under private ownership and hasn't been identified as a future connection. There was more
