Department: Engineering Development Review Contact: Dave Betley, 970-221-6573, dbetlev@fcgov.com Topic: General Comment Number: 1 Comment Originated: 06/13/2019 06/13/2019: The Annexation map needs to reflect the right of way also fronting Racquette Drive. It is the City's practice that the right of way also be annexed into the City. Please show the designated 60 foot right of way on the annexation map. Comment Number: 2 Comment Originated: 06/14/2019 06/14/2019: This comment is just for notification of future development. When a development application is submitted, the owner will need to dedicate an additional 3 feet of right of way and utility easement on Racquette Drive. It appears that the parking in front of the building may need to be addressed when this occurs. With future development, the owner will also have to bring the roadway up to the current LUCASS standards and address sidewalk and ADA issues.

If Richard Hansen is indeed the majority owner of this property. Please provide a statement clarifying his relationship to the property. Comment Number: 6 Comment Originated: 06/21/2019 06/21 /2019: 1 know there was some reference in the narrative that the building would be a change of use to permit a cheer academy; therefore, this would require the site to be brought up to current standards such as improvements related to infrastructure, land use code and fire code. The annexation itself will not require the owner to do property upgrades; however, any subsequent development of the site will. We define development as follows: "Development shall mean the carrying out of any building activity or mining operation, the making of any material change in the use or appearance of any structure or land, or, except as is authorized in Section 1.4.7, the dividing of land into two (2) or more parcels. (1) Development shall also include: (a) Any construction, placement, reconstruction, alteration of the size, or material change in the external appearance of a structure on land; (b) Any change in the intensity of use of land, such as an increase in the number Page 2 of 5 Fort Collins June 21, 2019 Troy Jones MTA Planning and Architecture 108 Rutgers Ave. Fort Collins, CO 80525 RE: 128 Racquette Drive Annexation, ANX190001, Round Number 1 Please see the following summary of comments from City staff and outside reviewing agencies for your submittal of the above referenced project.
