RE: Statement. of Planning Objectives
King Soopers Store #9 Expansion
Cedarwoud Plaza
Dear Michael,
We are requesting approval for the proposed expansion of 10,819 square feet for the King Soopers
store located at South Taft Hill Road and West tilWbeth Street. Of this area, 5,165 square feet
will be a new addition in the southwest Corner of tlae existing store and renovation of 5,654 square
feet of existing adjacent tenant space directly to the south. As you recall, in 1986 the Planning and
Zoning Board had approved a previous request for a 10,000 square foot expansion on the north side
of the store. However, the plans for the proposed expansion were never recorded.
The shopping center is classified as a Nonconforming use and is zoned N-C, Neighborhood
Commercial. The renovation of the existing tenant space is governed by the building code.
Approval for the enlargement or expansion of a building containing a nonconforming use shall be
governed by the twelve limitations set forth in Section 1.5.5 of the Land Use Code for the City of
Fort Collins. In order, please review the following response.
(1) The present and future use will remain as a retail grocery store.
(2) 771e present store is open 24 hours a day, every day except for December 25 on which
it is closed for the holiday. The future hours of operation will remain the same.
(3) The expansion is looted totally within the parcel of property of the original center.
Please refer the site plan.
(4) Please refer to the Transportation Impact Study prepared by Matt Delich, P.E.
specifically for this project. It states that the center will be adequately served by the
present transportation network. In reference to your letter of April 22, 1997, a comment
by the Transportation Planning Department was made in regard to providing a more
direct access to the center from the residential area behind the store. Although shown
on the survey, the l0 foot wide walkway in question does not presently exist. Further,
it appears that the walkway may never have existed as therm are no field indications of a
gate, sidewalk or fences separating it from the adjacent lots. Realistically, an access
point to the center through the truck loading area would not seem advisable nor safe.
