Will the school boundaries change and if so who is responsible for that change?
The City of Fort Collins is not involved in determining school boundaries. This is the sole
responsibility of the Poudre School District. According to the Poudre School District's
Long Range Planning: Boundary Committee they often recommend "clean-up" of
boundaries that have little to no student impact and include modifications like adjusting
boundary lines such that they do no bisect fields or lots, adjusting boundary lines to
follow the mid -line of roads as opposed to bisecting properties, etc.
Ultimately the responsibility of changing school district lines start as a recommendation
from the Boundary Committee then is approved by the Superintendent and Colorado
Board of Education.
In the Poudre School District's 2015 Majority and Minority Reports it shows proposed
changes to the Kruse Elementary School / Werner Elementary School — Middle School
and High School Boundary that will impact 0 students.
What are some of the upsides of being annexed into the City of Fort Collins?
• Faster police response time
• Voting for a Mayor and Council Member (District 3)
• Less Expensive Electric Rates
• Urban level services
• Neighborhood Services(http.//www.fcgov.corn/neighborhoodservicesl)
• Rebates through energy audit programs (i.e., Solar Installation Incentives)
Though these are just a few advantages of being part of the City it is not an
exhaustive list. Please visit our website at http://www.fcgov. com/ to find out more.

How will the assessor determine the value of our property?
According the Assessor's office:
The County Assessor is responsible for valuing all real and personal property, including
mobile homes, residential and commercial properties and agricultural land for property
tax purposes. The Assessor determines the equitable value of property to ensure that
each taxpayer pays only his or her fair share of the taxes. Anyone who disagrees with
changes in the actual value of real property can object or file a protest with the Assessor
in May. Protests for Commercial Business Personal Property accounts should be filed
with the Assessor between June 15 and July 5.
2015/2016 Reappraisal Cycle
Colorado property tax law requires assessors to conduct countywide reappraisals every
two years in odd -numbered years, and that a specific date, June 30th of the year
preceding the reappraisal year, be used to benchmark all property values throughout
the state. The benchmark, or "level of value", for this reappraisal cycle is June 30, 2014.
For the 2015/2016 reappraisal cycle Larimer County is using 60 months of data. That
means our sales study period extends from July 1, 2009 through June 30, 2014. All
sales are trended up or down to the level of value date, June 30, 2014, depending on
market factors in the different areas of Larimer County.
For 2016, only owners that saw a change in value or ownership from the previous year
were mailed a notice with the new value and have the option to protest online. The
majority of property values do not change in even numbered years because Colorado is
on a two year reappraisal cycle. If you do not have the Notice of Value you may
complete and mail a 2015 Protest Form to our office no later than June 1, 2016.
Protests can also be filed in person, by letter or fax. We cannot accept appeals sent in
by email or taken over the phone.
Properties that are appealed during our protest period will be reviewed and a Notice of
Determination will be sent to those property owners on June 30, 2016. If you are
satisfied with the value after this review, the process ends and your tax will be based on
the value reflected in the notice of determination. If you disagree with the Assessor's
decision, the next step will be to file an appeal with the County Board of Equalization.
More details will be provided in the Notice of Determination that will be sent June 30,
2016.

In 1988, the various REA's in Colorado had a state statute approved by the legislature
requiring municipal electric utilities to pay what is called a "service rights fee" to the local
REA when provision of electric service is changed. This statute requires municipal
electric utilities that transfer electric service after an annexation to pay the local REA
25% of all revenue from existing customers (5% for new customers) starting on the date
of electric transfer for a period of 10 years. The REA perspective is this pays for their
lost revenue. The municipal utility perspective is it is an attempt to discourage
transferring electric customers to the municipal utility. Some municipal utilities in
Colorado choose to absorb the service rights fee. Fort Collins Light & Power, at the
direction of City Council, passes this expense on to the transferred customers.
Fort Collins Light & Power also purchases the REA infrastructure in addition to the
service rights fee. This infrastructure purchase cost is not passed on to the annexed
customers.
What other fees or taxes should I know about?
tormwater Fee:
Fort Collins Utilities charges a monthly rate to pay for construction and maintenance of
Fort Collins' stormwater system, which helps protect residents and businesses during
storms and floods on a city-wide basis. All developed properties within city limits pay
stormwater rates, which are based on:

Fort Collins
Can you give us a recent example of an enclave annexation?
Yes, there were four Southwest Enclave Annexations totally 1,603 acres that were
phased in over time and were adopted by City Council between 2006 and 2013.
Does Larimer County have anything to say about enclave annexations?
Yes, Larimer County encourages the cities of Fort Collins, Loveland, Berthoud and
Estes Park to annex properties that have become enclaves and have been surrounded
by no less than three years. The City of Fort Collins and Larimer County have entered
into an Intergovernmental Agreement (I.G.A.) that establishes a Growth Management
Area (G.M.A.). Within this G.M.A., the City and County have agreed that growth and
development should be at an urban level and that the City, and/or special districts, is
best able to provide an urban level of public services. Under the I.G.A., with regard to
land located within the G.M.A., the City has agreed to pursue the annexation of
enclaves as those areas become eligible according to state law.
What about City zoning?
The requested zoning districts for these annexations comply with the City's Structure
Plan Map, an element of the City's comprehensive plan, and are as follows:
• Rennat Property — Low Density Mixed -Use Neighborhood, L-M-N.
Lehman / Timberline — Urban Estate, U-E.
Mail Creek Second — Urban Estate, U-E.
How long will the annexation process take?
Typically an annexation process takes between 3 and 4 months once the annexation
process is initiated.
Why make us a pay an electric surcharge when we the City of Fort Collins is
annexing us unwillingly?
There is a Colorado statute that requires annexing utilities, such as Fort Collins Light &
Power, to pay to the REA 25% of revenue every month for a period of 10 years after the
electric service is transferred (not from the date of annexation). Each customer's rate
will be based on the normal Light & Power rates + this 25%. At the end of the 10 year
period, the REA surcharge is discontinued. Even with the 25% adder, the Fort Collins
Light & Power residential rates are less than the Poudre Valley REA rates for most
classes of customers.

Question and Answers
What is an enclave?
An enclave is a property, or group of properties, that are located in unincorporated
Larimer County but, due to urban growth and development over time, are now
surrounded by the City of Fort Collins municipal boundary.
How is it that our properties became enclaves?
The properties in the vicinity of South Timberline Road and Kechter Road have been
divided into three separate enclave annexations and have become, or will soon
become, enclaves in the following manner:
• Rennat Property: This is a single 57.834 acre parcel located between
Timberline Road and the Union Pacific Railroad. As a result of the Hansen
Farm Annexation, this parcel became an eligible enclave on May 21, 2013.
• Lehman/Timberline Property: This is a single 5.684 acre City -owned parcel
located east of Timberline Road north of Bacon Elementary School, As a
result of the Mail Creek Crossing Annexation, this parcel will fulfill the three-
year statutory requirements on January 7, 2017.
• Mail Creek Second Annexation Properties: This is an enclave that consists of
43.698 acres and 11 parcels located at the northeast and southeast corners
of Timberline Road and Kechter Road with the exception of the parcels
owned by the Jehovah's Witnesses Church and the Thorland Subdivision,
which are already part of the City of Fort Collins. As a result of the Mail Creek
Crossing Annexation, these properties will fulfill the three-year statutory
requirements on January 7, 2017.
What is an enclave annexation?
An enclave annexation is a growth management technique used by municipalities that
allows Cities and Towns to establish a unified jurisdiction that does not have pockets of
unincorporated land. After an enclave is created, three years must elapse before the
City or Town can annex the property or multiple properties.
Is it normal for the City of Fort Collins to annex properties after the three year
period?
Yes, it has long been the City's practice to annex enclaves after three years.

SUBJECT
Resolution 2016-089 Stating the Intent of the City of Fort Collins to Annex Certain Property and Initiating
Enclave Annexation Proceedings for Such Property to be Known as the Rennat Annexation,
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
This is a City -initiated request to annex 57.83 acres at 6015 South Timberline Road into the City of Fort
Collins. The parcel became an enclave with the annexation of the Hansen Farm Annex on May 21, 2013. As of
May 21, 2016, the City is authorized to annex the enclave in accordance with State Statute 31-12-106. The
Rennat Annexation is situated between the Union Pacific Railroad/Southridge Golf Course to the west and S
Timberline Road to the east. The requested zoning for this annexation is Low Density Mixed -Use
Neighborhood (LMN), Medium Density Mixed -Use Neighborhood (MMN) and Neighborhood Commercial (NC),
which is consistent with the City of Fort Collins Structure Plan. The surrounding properties are residential,
educational, and agricultural land uses. The property owner has expressed no objections to the annexation.
The proposed Resolution makes a finding that the property at issue has been completely contained within the
boundaries of the City for not less than three years, initiates annexation proceedings, sets a hearing date for
the annexation ordinance and directs the City Clerk to publish notice. The hearing will be held at the time of
first reading of the annexation and zoning ordinances; not less than thirty days of prior notice is required by
state law.
This annexation request is in conformance with the State of Colorado Revised Statutes as they relate to
annexations, the City of Fort Collins Comprehensive Plan, and the Larimer County and City of Fort Collins
Intergovernmental Agreements.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends adoption of the Resolution.
BACKGROUND / DISCUSSION
This is an involuntary enclave annexation for a property located within the Growth Management Area (GMA).
According to policies and agreements contained in the Larimer County and City of Fort Collins
Intergovernmental Agreement, the City will agree to involuntary annex property in the GMA when the property
becomes eligible under regulations of Colorado Revised Statutes.
The City of Fort Collins also has a long standing history of annexing property within the GMA to ensure that
property conforms to the vision, goals and policies of the City's Comprehensive Plan.
The Rennat property is a single parcel annexation and was enclaved upon the annexation of the Hansen Farm
Annex on May 21, 2013. The parcel abuts the Union Pacific Railroad/Southridge Golf Course to the west and
South Timberline Road to the east.
