HomeMy WebLinkAboutRICKETTS FIRST AND SECOND ANNEXATIONS AND ZONINGS - 33 93,A AND 34 93, A - CORRESPONDENCE - CORRESPONDENCE-CONCEPTUAL REVIEW6. There has been a previous subdivision by the name "Ricketts". Staff
suggests that you choose another name, or use your first names as well,
ie. Norma and Van Ricketts Minor.Subdivision.
7. Any new residential dwelling units will be required to pay a parkland fee
of $625.00 per unit, at the time of building permit issuance.
8. Street oversizing fees will be collected as the property redevelops.
Residential units pay $584.00 per unit, and commercial uses pay according
to traffic generation at amounts set by the engineering department and
City Council.
9. It would be to your advantage to dedicate your share of the right-of-way
for Harmony Road with the minor plat. A total of 60' for the south side
of the ultimate width will be required when the property redevelops. A
15' utility easement will be required behind the right-of-way on Harmony.
The City anticipates an eventual need for 68' of right-of-way for
Cambridge Avenue as a future collector street, with 8' utility easements
on either side, outside of the right-of-way.
10. There is an existing Harmony Road Access Plan which indicates that the
intersection of Harmony Road and Cambridge Avenue will be signalized at
some time in the future.
11. The parcel adjacent to Harmony Road will have a difficult time
redeveloping as a stand alone use. City Planning and Transportation staff
recommend that you keep in contact with the owners of adjacent properties
and become involved in long range planning activities which may occur. It
will be important for all of the properties in this area to coordinate
development plans, as each property is dependent on others for access,
engineering, storm drainage, circulation, and other uses. For instance,
the parcel to the east will likely need access through this site in order
to access Harmony Road.
12. Future redevelopment of the property will require conformance with the
existing Harmony Corridor Plan design guidelines.

ITEM: Ricketts Minor Subdivision, south of Harmony Road, east of
Timberline Road.
APPLICANT: Van and Norma Ricketts
4700 Cambridge Avenue
Fort Collins, CO 80525
LAND USE DATA: This is a proposal for an annexation, zoning, and minor
subdivision of a 5 acre parcel located south of Harmony Road, approximately 1/2
mile east of Timberline Road, at 4700 Cambridge Avenue. There is an existing
single family house on the southern portion. The applicants propose to subdivide
the lot into 2 roughly equal lots, the southern for existing residential use and
the northern for business, commercial, or industrial uses. There are no
development plans in progress at this time. Planning has recommended that the
property be placed in the EP, Employment Park, Zoning District.
COMMENTS:
Light and Power will pick up development charges for any existing uses,
but future uses will be charged normal Light and Power development fees
according to the use.
The existing house would become a non -conforming use in the EP Zone. It
is possible that future additions to the house would require an expansion
of a non -conforming use review by the Planning and Zoning Board.
3. Existing water supply may not be sufficient to meet City ;ire flow
requirements when the property develops. Eventually City mains will be
extended to this area. City sewer service is further in the future.
There is an existing 16" water main on the north side of Harmony Road.
The property is currently on a 2" Fort Collins/Loveland district water
line.
4. The property is located in the McClelland -Mail Creek drainage basin.
Stormwater development fees are $3717.00 per acres, depending' on the
coefficient of run-off for proposed development. There are also detention
and release requirements specific to this basin, which are as follows:
0.2 cfs for minor storms
0.5 cfs for major storms
5. Cross drainage easements should be made part of the minor subdivision
plat, as the property to the north will likely have to transmit stormwater
across the property to the south. It is easier to obtain these easements
when the property is under single ownership.
