The requested zoning for this annexation is the T-Transitional, Zoning
District. The T district designation is used as a holding zone for
properties annexed into the City with no immediate development plans. The
property will probably never develop independently because of its geometric
shape but could be used as a bike/pedestrian corridor between existing and
future developments. The City received several letters related to this
item (copies attached). Some of the letters did not discuss aspects of the
annexation but concerned themselves with the street design of the Taft
Canyon PUD. Copies of these letters were forwarded to the Board of County
Commissioners.
Findings
1. The annexation of this area is consistent with the policies and
agreements between Larimer County and the City of Fort Collins
contained in the INTERGOVERNMENTAL AGREEMENT FOR THE FORT COLLINS URBAN
GROWTH AREA.
2. The area meets all criteria included in State law to qualify for a
voluntary annexation by the City of Fort Collins.
3. The requested T-Transitional zoning district will be used as a holding
zone for the property.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION•
Staff recommends approval of the annexation and requested zoning.
PLANNING AND ZONING BOARD RECOMMENDATION:
