100% voluntary annexation and zoning of approximately 48.7 acres in size and is
located on West Vine Drive, between North Shields Street and North Taft Hill Road.
The existing use of the property is an elementary school.
This is a voluntary annexation, located within the Urban Growth Area of the City of Fort

feet (20%) contiguous to existing City limits. This exceeds the minimum 2,448.70 feet
required to achieve 1/6th contiguity.

through sequential annexations in order to gain the required 1/6th contiguity to existing
City limits. The Lincoln Junior High School 2nd Annexation and Zoning is the second of
two annexations regarding the Lincoln Junior High School.
According to policies and agreements between the City of Fort Collins and Larimer

Growth Area, the City will consider the annexation of property in the Urban Growth Area
when the property is eligible for annexation according to State law. The resolution

PLANNING AND ZONING BOARD RECOMMENDATION:
On April 16, 1998, the Planning and Zoning Board voted 3-3 to recommend that the City Council
deny the Lincoln Junior High School 2nd Annexation with the UE-Urban Estate zone district
recommended by staff.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends approval of the Lincoln Junior High School 2nd Annexation with a zoning of
UE-Urban Estate zone district, which is consistent with the adopted City Plan.
This Agenda Item Summary includes the following attachments:

ITEM NUMBER:'] A
Public and private schools for elementary, intermediate and high school education are permitted uses
in the UE zone district. The proposed zoning is consistent with City Plan.
Compliance with State Law
The annexation has 20% of its perimeter boundary contiguous with existing City limits, which
complies with the minimum 1/6th contiguity as required by State law.
Issues Raised by the Neighborhood
Several issues were raised by affected property owners at the Planning and Zoning Board hearing
on April 16, 1998. This issues included the following: possible increases to property taxes, who
would be responsible for the maintenance and improvements to roads, zoning and land use
restrictions placed on their properties as a result of the proposed annexation and zoning, and any
impacts to existing covenants.
Possible Increases to Property Taxes:
The property taxes for those individuals living adjacent to and in the vicinity of the proposed
annexation will not increase as a result of the annexation and zoning. The annexation does not
include any property other than the school and road ROW. Therefore, the annexation changes the
political boundary for these two areas and does not include any of the adjoining neighbors.
Maintenance and Improvements to Road:
Currently, portions of V ine Drive are maintained by the City of Fort Collins, and the ROW proposed
by the annexation would be maintained by the City as well. Any additional improvements to the
road system would most likely be the responsibility of a developer and/or the City. This annexation
will have no impact to streets not located within the proposed annexation. Therefore, the privately -
owned streets in the vicinity will remain privately -owned and will continue to be maintained and a
responsibility of any homeowner's associations.
Zoning and Land Use Restrictions:
Any action by the City of Fort Collins regarding the Lincoln Junior High School 1st and 2nd
Annexations do not result in a change in zoning for properties not included with these two
annexations. Land outside of the proposed annexations and zoning will remain in the County subj ect
to County zoning regulations. Therefore, farming and related activities may continue. If the
property owners in the vicinity were to desire to voluntarily annex, the property most likely would
be zoned as follows: to the north of Vine Drive--UE-Urban Estate; and the south of Vine Drive--
LMN-Low Density Mixed -Use Neighborhood.
Existing Covenants:
The question as to whether the proposed annexation and zoning would dissolve the existing
covenants was raised. The proposed annexation and zoning will have no impact on the existing
covenants. The homeowner's association enforces the covenants and the City only enforces zoning
regulations.
DATE:
May 5, 1998 2 ITEM NUMBER:

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 proposed Lincoln Junior High
2nd Annexation complies with this requirement. The property has 2,899.84 feet of its total
boundary length of 14,692.19 feet (20%) contiguous to existing City limits. This exceeds the
minimum 2,448.70 feet required to achieve 1/6th contiguity.
The contiguity to existing City limits is gained from the following common boundaries:
S: Lincoln Junior High 1 st Annexation
N: Lincoln Junior High 1st Annexation
The annexation and zoning of the Lincoln Junior High School is being accomplished through
sequential annexations in order to gain the required 1/6th contiguity to existing City limits. The
Lincoln Junior High School 2nd Annexation is the second of two annexations regarding the Lincoln
Junior High School.
According to policies and agreements between the City of Fort Collins and Larimer County
contained in the Intergovernmental Agreement for the Fort Collins Urban Growth Area, the City
will consider the annexation of property in the Urban Growth Area when the property is eligible for
annexation according to State law. The resolution initiating annexation proceedings was adopted
by City Council on March 17, 1998.
Existing Zoning
The surrounding zoning and land uses are as follows:
N: FA -Farming (County zoning) -large lot residential
S: FA -Farming (County zoning) -existing single-family residential

W: FA -Farming (County zoning) -large lot residential
All commercial signs on the property will have to conform to the City's Sign Code at the conclusion
of a five (5) year amortization period (the year 2003).
Proposed Zoning

zone district. The purpose of the UE zone is described in the Land Use Code as being:
"intended to be a setting for a predominance of low -density and large -lot housing.
