Findings
1. The annexation of this area is consistent with the policies and agreements
between Larimer County and the City of Fort Collins contained in the
INTERGOVERNMENTAL AGREEMENT FOR THE FORT COLLINS URBAN GROWTH AREA.
2. The area meets all criteria included in State law to qualify for a
voluntary annexation to the City of Fort Collins.
3. On April 19, 1994, the City Council approved a resolution which accepts
the annexation petition and determined that the petition is in compliance
with State law. The resolution also initiated the annexation process for
this property by establishing the date, time and place when a public
hearing will be held regarding the readings of the Ordinances annexing and
zoning the area.
4. 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 annexation and requested zoning. Staff also
recommends that a PUD condition be attached to the R-L-P Zone for the property
which would require all development proposals for the property to be reviewed
against the criteria of the LAND DEVELOPMENT GUIDANCE SYSTEM.
PLANNING AND ZONING BOARD RECOMMENDATION
The Planning and Zoning Board, at its regular monthly meeting on April 25, 1994,
I voted 7-0 to recommend approval of the annexation and requested zoning as part
of the Board's Consent Agenda.
DATE: June 7, 1994
ITEM NUMBER: 32 A-C
BACKGROUND:
The applicant, Chateau Custom Builders, Inc., on behalf of the owners, Marvin D.
& Doris E. Strachan, has submitted a written petition requesting annexation of
approximately 17.9 acres located east of County Road #9 and north of the Hewlett
Packard Plant on Harmony Road. The requested zoning is the R-L-P, Low Density
Planned Residential, District which could allow for a variety of housing types
and densities through the PUD process, but due to the property's relatively small
size a variety of uses is not likely to occur on the site. The property is
presently undeveloped. The property is currently zoned FA-1 Farming in the
County which allows single-family residential development with a minimum lot size
of 2.29 acres. This is a voluntary annexation.
The property is located within the Fort Collins Urban Growth Area. 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 UGA when the
property is eligible for annexation according to State law. The property gains
the required 1/6 contiguity to existing city limits from a common boundaries with
the Harmony No. 4 Annexation to the south and the Spring Creek Farms 4th
Annexation to the west.
The surrounding zoning and existing land uses are as follows:
N: FA-1, Farming, undeveloped (the proposed Robert Shields Annexation with a
R-L-P zoning request)
E: FA-1, Farming, undeveloped
S: I-L, Limited Industrial, Hewlett Packard industrial plant
W: E-P, Employment Park, undeveloped (the proposed NCR site)
The requested zoning for this annexation is the R-L-P, Low Density Planned
Residential, District. The R-L-P District designation is for areas planned as
a unit to provide variation in use, density, and building placement. Due to the
property's relatively small size, however, a variety of uses is not likely to
occur. The property will probably eventually develop predominantly with
residential uses. Due to the property's adjacency to Hewlett Packard, and the
pending NCR site, the property may be appropriate for higher density residential
uses. According to the City's LAND USE POLICIES PLAN, higher density uses are
encouraged to located near major employment centers. While this site addresses
some of the locational policies for higher density residential uses, such uses
may meet with opposition from existing residents located north of the site who
live within a larger lot subdivision. However, the City should not preclude the
potential of higher density housing at the time of annexing and zoning the
property.
County Road #9 is planned as an arterial street (4-lanes) according to the City's
MASTER STREET PLAN. The property is adjacent to a major sewer line located in
County Road #9. Other services will need to be extended to serve the property.
Development of the property will be required to address the City's off -site
street policy, which requires access to an improved arterial street (minimum 36'
wide pavement constructed to arterial standards) and to pay the City's '
development fees for water and sewer services, storm drainage, parkland, and
street oversizing. The staff does not anticipate any other significant costs to
the City for infrastructure improvements required by new development of the
property.
