Electricity will be provided by Fort Collins Light and Power.
Architecture
Medical Office Building (MOB)
The first phase will consist of two buildings. A Medical office building will be the dominant
visual feature and will consist of a three story office building that is oriented toward the
intersection of Timberline and Harmony Road. The building program includes office suites for
physicians, a small deli food service area, two conference rooms, and a retail pharmacy. The
MOB will be constructed of brick and glass. The glass will be a low reflectivity type and will be
selected to work together with the brick. A Porte Cochere will be provided as a drop off for
patients entering the facility. The Porte Cochere will be designed to integrate visually with the
building.
Annbulatory Care Center (ACC)
The ACC includes and Ambulatory Surgery Suite, Cardiac Catheterization Laboratory, and
Urgent Care Unit, a small clinical laboratory, a Diagnostic Imaging Unit with General radiology,
Fluoroscopy, CT Scanner, MRI Scanner, Special Procedures Room, and a Women's Imaging
Center with mammography and Ultrasound Devices.
The MOB and ACC are connected because many patients will need diagnostic procedures
immediately following the visit to their physician. Also, many of the doctors with offices in the
MOB will need direct access to either the cardiac Catheterization Laboratory or the Ambulatory
Surgery Unit.

Transfort
A Transfort bus stop will be provided along Harmony Road and will be located between
Timberline and the right -in right -out. Additionally Transfort circulation may be provided
directly to the building front.
Pedestrian Circulation
Internal Pedestrian Circulation A thorough system of internal pedestrian pathways will be
created to facilitate pedestrian and cyclists. The pedestrian paths will connect at all major
intersections and will also include a walkway system connecting to the Timber Creek subdivision
as well as to subdivisions to the east of the project site. Additionally the walkways will provide a
connection to the Mountain Crest property (now a part of PVHS). The internal system will then
connect outward to both Hannony Road and Timberline Rd. Connection points will occur at each
of the public roadways as well as adjacent to the right -in right -out, and on a diagonal walkway
that will provide direct pedestrian access to the corner of Harmony and Timberline.
Harmony Road falkways
An eight foot meandering sidewalk will be constructed within the 80' Harmony Corridor
Setback. Staging of this construction will be established according to the staging of construction
of various buildings.
Timberline Walkway
A 5' detached sidewalk will be constructed along Timberline Road. The detached walk will give
convenient access to the Harmony Village project.
Crosswalks
Crosswalks with special paving enhancement will be constructed at intersections of pedestrian
walkways with publicly dedicated roadways as well as in locations where pedestrian walkways
intersect with the campus circulation road.
Landscaping
Landscaping will be designed to be in conformance with the Harmony Corridor Plan and the
landscape requirements of City Plan.
Water
Water will be provided by the City of Fort Collins. A looped system will be developed with the
second phase of development.
Sewer
Sewer will be provided by the City of Fort Collins.

The proposed land use plan provides for an internal circulation system that also provides
interconnecting public roadways to allow through traffic on the site.
Harmony Road
Harmony Road will be improved by adding on street bike lanes an by constructing right turn
deceleration lanes into the site. These improvements will be staged to correspond with the
various phases of development and will be constructed as warranted by the Traffic Impact
Analysis.
Timberline Road
Timberline will be improved by constructing improvements to the intersection of Timberline and
by widening Timberline. The specific improvements will be in accordance with the Traffic
Impact Study.
East West Access Road
A southern access public road that extends east and west will connect with Timberline Road
across from the proposed entry to the Harmony Village property. This roadway will proceed
easterly and eventually connect with Timberwood Road on the east side of the site. The right of
way will provide for a local or collector roadway depending on projected traffic demands of the
site. This road will also include on street bike lanes. The intersection of Timberline. and this
roadway will be signalized and allow for full turn movements. The signal will be installed at the
time warrants are met.
North South Access Road
A north south public access road corresponding with the existing Snow Mesa drive will be
constructed through the property north bound from the existing end of Snow Mesa northward to
Harmony Road. This roadway will provide north/south public access for both the PVH site and
neighborhoods to the south. The intersection of Harmony Road and this roadway will be a
signalized intersection allowing for full turn movements onto Harmony Road. The signal will be
installed at the time signal warrants are met. This roadway will include on street bike lanes.
Campus Circulation.
Vehicular access to the campus will be through an outer loop road that connects the two major
public access points. The loop road will serve to provide a convenient vehicular access while
minimizing pedestrian/ vehicle conflicts. This roadway will be a private roadway and will be
maintained by PVHS.
Harmony Road Right- in, Right -Out
A right -in right -out turn movement will be constructed with the first phase of development off of
Harmony Road. This movement will be for eastbound right turn movements into the campus, and
for eastbound right turns out of the campus. The predominant movement at this location will be
to serve the Medical Office Building.

Statement of Planning Objectives
Poudre Valley Health System
Harmony Campus
ODP and PDP
Land Use
The Poudre Valley Health Systems, Harmony Campus (PVH) is part of a long range plan of the
Poudre Valley Health Systems to continue to meet the medical needs of the region. Purchased in
1992 by PVHS, the property has been land banked until now. This Overall Development Plan
represents formal application for the zoning of the property as an overlay zone to the Harmony
Corridor Plan which designates the zoning for the property as H-C.
The first phase of the project is approximately 27 acres in size and includes a proposed
128,000SF Medical Office Building and an 86,000SF Ambulatory Care Center. The project will
provide medical office space for physicians. The Ambulatory Care Center will provide
predominantly outpatient services for one day surgery patients as well as urgent care.
Future phases are uncertain and will be determined partially as a result of the ever -changing
needs of the medical community. The ODP is intended to provide a possible plan based on
PVH's understanding of future hospital needs. The plan may need to be modified from time to
time based on future projects. A formal amendment will be sought through the City if this
circumstance arises.
The proposed plan is in direct conformance with the H-C Zone district and proposes uses that are
in keeping with the allowable uses designated in the Harmony Corridor Plan. Specifically those
uses are as follows:
Primary Uses:
Basic Industrial and non -retail employment activity centers such as hospitals, nursing, and
personal care facilites, independent living and assisted living in a congregate care environment,
regional vocational, business or private schools and universities, research and development,
industrial uses, finance, insurance and real estate, services, professional offices, health center,
conference center, and other uses of a similar character as determined by the Planning and
Zoning Board.
Secondary Uses:
In conformance with the H-C zone district, secondary uses shall occupy no more that 25% of the
total site area. These uses shall occupy no more than 25% of the total site area. These uses
include: recreation center, hotels/motels convenience shopping, child care, centers, single family,
and multi -family housing, recreation fields, and passive outdoor areas.
