City of Fort Collins Current Planning
Re: Ascent Studio Statement of Planning Objectives:
Ascent Studio Climbing and Fitness is an approximately 19,000 square foot indoor rock climbing
facility. The project meets the allowed use requirements under the existing I (Industrial) zoning as
an indoor recreational facility.
As part of an existing approved subdivision plan, Ascent Studio will provide landscape buffering
consistent with the requirements of that plan and will provide the same ratio of landscape to non
landscaped area. Additionally, the project will provide required pervious paving for planned on-
site parking (not previously required, but now provided under new planning regulations).
Ownership and maintenance will be governed by the original subdivision agreement.
The new indoor climbing gym will require approximately 4 full time and 8 part time employees.
There were no objections, issues or concerns raised at the neighborhood meeting or through any
correspondence with the Planning Department after the project was presented.
Attached please find the response to applicable issues raised in the Conceptual Review Letter for
this project.
If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me.
Sincerely,
Joe Hosek, AIA, NCARB
