Background:
The applicant and owner, D. Jensen Enterprises, has submitted a written
petition requesting annexation of approximately 80.0 acres located south of the
Quail Hollow Subdivision, south of Drake Road. The requested zoning is in
two parts: (1) approximately 68.0 acres of R-L-P, Low Density Planned Resi-
dential, on the eastern portion of the property; and (2) approximately 12.0 acres
of R-F, Foothills Residential District on the western portion of the property.
The property is presently undeveloped. The property is currently zoned FA-1,
Farming, in the County. This is a voluntary annexation.
Any existing commercial signs on the property will have to conform to the
City's Sign Code at the conclusion of a five year amortization period.
The property is located within the Fort Collins Urban Growth Area. According
to policies and agreements between the City of Fort Collins and Larimer
County contained in the INTERGOVERNMENTAL AGREEMENT FOR THE
FORT COLLINS URBAN GROWTH AREA, the City will consider the annexa-
tion of property in the UGA when the property is eligible for annexation
according to State law. The property gains the required 1/6 contiguity to
existing city limits from a common boundary with the Dixon Creek Annexation
to the north.
The surrounding zoning and existing land uses are as follows:
N: R-P, Planned Residential Zoning (with a PUD condition).
E: FA-1, Farming, large lot single-family homes.
S: FA-1, Farming, undeveloped.
W: R-F, Foothills Residential, City -owned open space.
The requested zoning for this annexation is in two parts: (1) approximately
68.0 acres of R-L-P, Low Density Planned Residential, on the eastern portion
of the property; and (2) approximately 12.0 acres of R-F, Foothills Residential
District on the western portion of the property. The R-L-P District designation
is for areas planned as a unit to provide variation in use, density and building
placement. The R-F District designation is for low density residential areas
located near the foothills. The property will probably eventually develop with
detached single-family homes. According to the City's LAND USE POLICIES
PLAN, low density residential uses should locate in areas which have easy
access to existing or planned neighborhood and community/regional shopping
centers, which have easy access to major employment centers, are within
walking distance to an existing or planned elementary school, are within easy
walking distance to an existing or planned neighborhood park (the City
recently purchased 19.68 acres of the eastern portion of the property for a
neighborhood park) and within easy access to a community park, and in which
a collector street affords the major access. This site addresses these locational
policies.
The dividing line between the proposed R-L-P and R-F zoned areas is the
center -line of the re-routed Overland Trail. Following the foothills policies
and City Council decisions on the Stuart Annexation and the Noel Annexation,
Quail Hollow Annexation and Zoning - #46-89 •
October 23, 1989 P & Z Meeting
Page 3
Overland Trail can make a clear break between urban uses and urban residen-
tial densities to the east and low density residential development to the west.
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 to the City of Fort Collins.
3. On October 17, 1989, the City Council approved a resolution which accepts
the annexation petition and determines that the petition is in compliance
with State law. The resolution also initiates the annexation process for this
property by establishing the date, time and place when a public hearing
will be held regarding the readings of the Ordinances annexing and zoning
the area. Public hearing and first reading of the Ordinances annexing and
zoning the property will be considered by the City Council on November 5,
1989.
4. The requested R-L-P and R-F Districts are in conformance with the policies
of the City's Comprehensive Plan.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends approval of the annexation and requested zoning.
