On Wednesday, February 11, 2009, from 4:00 to 6:00 p.m. at the City Hall Council .
Chamber, 300 W. Laporte Avenue, Fort Collins, CO, the City of Fort Collins Advance
Planning Department will hold a neighborhood information open house to discuss a
proposed building addition in your neighborhood. The project is known as the 726 W.
Mountain Ave — Enlargement of a building containing a non -conforming use.
As proposed, the project would add 2 bedrooms, a bathroom and a closet to the second
floor of an existing dwelling unit located within a two-family dwelling (duplex) located at
726 W. Mountain Ave. There will be no building expansion outside the existing building
footprint.
Because of a dwelling unit in the basement, this structure was considered a duplex prior
to the adoption of the Low Density Residential zoning district in 1980, making it a "legal
non -conforming use." Normally, the proposed addition would only require a building .
permit, but due to a technicality of the legal non -conforming use, the proposed
expansion requires a neighborhood meeting and hearing by the Planning and Zoning
Board.
The open house will be an informal drop -in format at the front of the Council Chambers.
Attend any time between 4:00 and 6:00 p.m.
The list of affected property owners for this public meeting.is derived from official
records of the Larimer County Assessor. Because of the lag time between occupancy
and record keeping, or because of rental situations, a few affected property owners may
have been missed. Please feel free to notify your neighbor of this pending meeting so
all neighbors may have the opportunity to attend.
If you have any questions, please call me at (970)221-6225.
Sincerely,
Clark Mapes
City Planner
