NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF FORT COLLINS that the Council hereby recommends to the Board of County Commissioners that the requirements of the Intergovernmental Agreement for the establishment of the Fort Collins Urban Growth Area, with respect to the public sewer capacity requirement as defined in the Larimer County Supplemental Regulations, be waived as that requirement is or may be applicable to the "ABC Storage and Ron's Equipment PUD". Passed and adopted at a regular meeting of the Council of the City of Fort Collins held this 18th day of May, A.D. 1993. Mayor ATTEST: City Clerk DATE: May 18, 1993 2 IEM NUMBER: 15 ^ The waiver will not result in unplanned public expense for provision of public services, improvements, or facilities; 2. The waiver is consistent with the intent and purpose of the County and adjoining municipality's Comprehensive Plan or Policies; 3. The waiver application contains material indicating approval may be granted without substantial detriment to the intent and purposes of the Supplementary Regulations which apply to the area; 4. The waiver application contains material indicating there are exceptional circumstances which apply to the specific piece of property which do not apply generally to the remaining property in the Urban Growth Area; and 5.

J AGENDA ITEM SUMMARY FORT COLLINS CITY COUNCIL SUBJECT: Resolution 93-64 Capacity Phasing PUD. RECOMMENDATION: ITEM NUMBER: 15 DATE: May 18, 1993 STAFF: Ken Waido Recommending Approval of a Waiver of the UGA Public Sewer Criteria Requirement for the ABC Storage and Ron's Equipment Staff recommends adoption of this Resolution. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: nOV4i4S %k4fw t , �iu«5 WG�� �� �✓uc des ow Iq VC key fd Lu This request pertains to a planned unit development application which has been submitted to Larimer County for review. The proposed PUD, ABC Storage and Ron's Equipment PUD, is located outside of the City limits on the north side of Highway 287, east of North Shields Street. Since this location is within the UGA, the City has the right to review and comment on the application and, more specifically, to comment on the applicant's request for a waiver of certain "phasing criteria" which are normally required for development in the UGA. The preliminary PUD consists of dividing 12.06 acres into three tracts for mini - warehousing, equipment sales and the existing retail/gasoline sales. The site is zoned C-Commercial. There is an existing mobile home park to the west. Of the four Urban Growth Area Phasing Criteria, the proposed development meets the requirement for public water capacity (provided by West fort Collins Water), contiguity to existing development and public street capacity (Highway 287 is considered to be improved in this area). A waiver is being requested for the requirement for public sewer capacity. The nearest sewer main is approximately 4000' southeast of the site. The extension of a sanitary sewer main from the existing line to this site would require a lengthy extension, as well as a boring of Highway 287. Thus, it is unlikely that a sewer main extension could be accomplished for the proposed PUD. At the present time, the existing Country General Store has a septic system. The proposed storage business will have one restroom in the office on a septic system. The intent of the waiver process is to give priority to in -fill development proposals. In -fill development proposals are those in essentially developed portions of the Urban Growth Area whose impact on existing services and facilities is relatively minimal. This site is adjacent to an existing mobile home to the west and the store and gas pumps on the site are existing. Therefore, staff considers this proposal to be in -fill development. The Larimer County Commissioners may waive phasing criteria provided that:
