Collins, CO. 80522-0580 Re: Country Club North Rezoning, #39-94 Dear Ken, The main concern we have for the proposed rezoning is the amount of traffic county road #11 will get to the South with these additional homes. Either county road #11 will have to be improved or an alternate route to the west or east will have to be done. Sincerely, �rr�s Dennis Sinnett c�. 1905 Richards Lake Rd. Ft.

Thanks for your consideration of my comments. Sincerely yours, William F..McCambridge Sincerely, "S41J Y' D. R. Smith cc: County Commissioner 2002 Country Club Road Fort Collins, CO 80524 Aug. 16, 1994 Mr. Ken Waido Fort Collins Planning Department Box 580 Fort Collins, CO 80524 Dear Mr. Shepard: This is in regard to the proposed Country Club North rezoning. I am opposed, to further development in the Northeast until the City recognizes and recovers all off -site costs, has a good and realistic plan for arterial traffic and has the financial means of implementing it. The City's involvement in this area really began with the deal with Anheuser-Busch. The new interchange and three shifts a day at the brewery drastically changed traffic rates in the Country Club area. Yet, the City has not made the investments required to handle the increased traffic; it has simply relied upon existing streets to handle the new situation. Traffic on Country Club Road has doubled. New developments, such as the 19th Green, the proposed PUD at CR 11 and Richard's Lake Road, and now the proposed rezoning for Country Club Road will only aggravate the situation because there is no current or planned alternative to simply dumping the new traffic on Country Club Road. The Northeast Area Transportation Study (1992) was very inadequate. As a consequence of the City's 20-year history of changing positions on a bypass, Country Club Road has become the informal bypass. The City has made no progress on moving the railroads out of Ft. Collins or in building overpasses to accomodate traffic. Traffic from the NE is frequently blocked by trains at the intersection of Lemay and Vine --causing delays and safety problems. The extension of Timberline Road is apparently on hold; CR 9E is a mess. County residents of this area need the City need the City to consider the cumulative effects of their actions and mount an aggressive program for arterial roads if it wishes to develop the northeast. As a minimum, the developers should be required to extend CR 9E from Mountain Vista Drive to Douglas Road. August 19, 1994 Mr. Ken Waido Chief Planner City of Fort Collins Post Office Box 580 Fort Collins, Colorado 80522 Re: Country Club North Rezoning #39-94 Dear Mr. Waido: As a homeowner in this area, I am very concerned about a substantial increase in traffic due to this project, and the lack of road infrastructure. Basically, I am afraid that the under developed roads will become over congested. S' c ely, Dale R.

The requested R-L-P District is in conformance with the policies of the City's Comprehensive Plan. STAFF RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends approval of the rezoning. Staff also recommends that a PUD condition be attached to the R-L-P Zone for the property which would require all redevelopment proposals for the property to be reviewed against the criteria of the LAND DEVELOPMENT GUIDANCE SYSTEM. Country Club North Rezoning, #39-94 August 22, 1994 P & Z Meeting Page 2 Background: The applicant, James Postle, on beh submitted a written petition request located north of County Road #52 Transition Zone to the R-L-P, Low property is presently undeveloped. development plan for the property. eventually develop with residential Of of the property owners listed above, has ing the rezoning of approximately 167.1 acres and east of County Road #11, from the T- Density Planned Residential, District. The At the current time there is no proposed The applicant anticipates the property will land uses. The current zoning and existing land uses of surrounding properties are as follows: N: FA-1, Farming, agricultural uses. The area north of the subject property is located outside the City's UGA boundary. E: FA-1, Farming, agricultural uses. The area east of the subject property is located outside the City's UGA boundary. S: R-L-P, Low Density Planned Residential, undeveloped W: R-L-P, Low Density Planned Residential, undeveloped FA-1, Farming, Serramonte Subdivision, large lot residential development The requested rezoning for this property is to change the zoning from the T- Transition Zone to the R-L-P, Low Density Planned Residential, District. The T Zone is for properties which are in a transitional stage with regard to ultimate development. The property was placed into the T Zone when it was annexed into the City in 1984. The City is required to change the zoning of T zoned properties within 60 days from the date the matter is considered by the Planning and Zoning Board. The requested R-L-P District designation is for areas planned as a unit to provide variation in use, density, and building placement. The property is of sufficient size to offer an opportunity for the development of a mixture of residential types and densities, including multi -family units. However, the existence of a large lot (5+ acres) single-family subdivision west of the property, west of County Road #11, would make the development of multi- family units difficult because of likely neighborhood opposition to such units. The property will probably eventually develop with lower density residential uses. Low density residential uses have no major location constraints within the City's Comprehensive Plan. There are no immediate development plans for the property. The City's MASTER STREETS PLAN categorizes the following adjacent streets into the following functional classifications: County Road #52 Arterial County Road #11 Arterial ITEM NO. 15 MEETING DATE 8122194 STAFF Ken Waido PLANNING AND ZONING BOARD STAFF REPORT PROJECT: APPLICANT: OWNERS: PROJECT DESCRIPTION: Country Club North Rezoning - #39-94,A James Postle James Company 2919 Valmont Road Bolder, CO 80301 William H.
