11. Second Reading of Ordinance No 151 2017 Annexing Property Known as the 1-25 Third Annexation
to the City of Fort Collins Colorado.
This Ordinance, unanimously adopted on First Reading on November 7, 2017, annexes approximately
282 acres of 1-25 right-of-way. This is a 100% voluntary annexation and zoning of two parcels owned
and administered by the Colorado Department of Transportation. Area No. 1 is approximately one and
a third (1.33) miles in length and spans north to south from East Vine Drive to Smithfield Drive, just
south of the 1-25 East Mulberry interchange. Area No. 2 is approximately four and a half (4.50) miles
in length and spans north to south from East Harmony Road to the boundary of the Growth
Management Area which terminates south of Carpenter Road. Contiguity with the existing municipal
boundary is gained with 11 previous annexations that surround portions of the north, east, south and
west side of the 1-25 Third annexation.
The annexation of 1-25 will benefit residents of Fort Collins through improved emergency response
and more efficient completion of planned capital projects. The 1-25 Third Annexation will allow the
Colorado Department of Transportation and City of Fort Collins to clear up jurisdictional service
questions between Larimer County, the Town of Timnath, the Town of Windsor and the City of Fort
Collins. One benefit of the 1-25 corridor being added to the City of Fort Collins service area is quicker
response times and more police per capita than Larimer County Sheriffs Department. Additionally, the
annexation is expected to allow better coordination between City and State Department of
Transportation staff during several upcoming capital projects, listed below. This improved coordination
of the following projects can help reduce administrative delays due to greater amount of staff in
comparison to Larimer County.
Construction of a Park & Ride Facility at 1-25 and Mulberry Street interchange
Reconstruction of the 1-25 / Mulberry St. interchange
Expansion of 1-25 that includes, replacement of the Cache la Poudre River bridges; connection of
the Cache la Poudre River Regional Trail and creation of a wildlife corridor under 1-25; addition of
express lanes (third lane) from Timnath to Prospect Road and widening the Great Western Railroad
bridges that cross over 1-25 between Harmony and Prospect Roads.
