Re: Fox Hills Second Annexation
This annexation petition is a request to the City of Fort Collins to approve the Fox Hills Second
annexation and zoning as defined in this petition.
The area to be annexed covers a portion of the Fox Hills Home Owners Association (HOA). The Fox Hills
HOA is currently divided between owners that are located within the City (Fox Hills First Annexation) and
those that are outside of the City in Larimer County. This current division between city and county is not
logical for maintenance across the HOA. This annexation would unify the Fox Hills HOA so that all
property would be within the City of Fort Collins. The area to be annexed is in Larimer County and is
within the growth management area for the City of Fort Collins.
The Fox Hills HOA, which is currently responsible for long term road maintenance within the County
portions of the HOA, is currently planning to improve the existing roads to bring them up to acceptable
standards as defined by the City of Fort Collins Infrastructure Services Department. Funding for these
road improvements has already been budgeted and approved by the Fox Hills HOA. These planned road
improvements would avoid any detriment to the City associated with road improvement for this
annexation.
An L-M-N Zone District is proposed for this annexation. This urban estate zone district classification
would not require any special conditions. The proposed urban estate zoning is consistent with the
current city structure plan.
