EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: The applicant, Cityscape Urban Design, Inc, on behalf of the property owner, Springfield Subdivision Sixth Filing, Joint Venture, has submitted a written petition requesting annexation of approximately 33.17 acres located west of Taft Hill Road and south of County Road 38E. in keel i j The proposed Resolution makes kfindin!gAtition substantially complies with the Municipal Annexation 'f�rt dete s that a hearing should be established regarding the annexation, a s that notice be given of the hearing. The hearing will be held at the time o first reading of the annexation and zoning ordinances. Not less than 30 days of prior notice is required by Colorado law. 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 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 boundary with the Taft Canyon Second Annexation to the east. The annexation petition provides that second reading on the annexation ordinance will not be scheduled until after the Planning and Zoning Board has reviewed the preliminary PUD for the property (see the third paragraph from the bottom on the first page of petition). Because the Council has said that this procedure is unacceptable, and the policy has been changed administratively, the petitioner has been advised that the condition to delay second reading is not acceptable. Nonetheless, unless the petitioner decides to withdraw the annexation petition, state law provides that Council should review the petition and determine whether it is in substantial compliance with the statutory requirements. If so, the resolution should be approved by the Council. The decision as to whether to actually annex the property would then be made at a earin on t - tion ordinance. At that ime, until would determine whether or not the proposed annexation would be in the best interests of the City. W 4qt YAL VL �4Cl K%N OCt%L,j NO'i .4 yi
