STROMBERGER PROPERTY MASTER PLAN Statement of Planning Objectives March 6, 1989 The 151 acre Stromberger Property is located at Harmony Road and Timberline Road; a key intersection on an important entryway to Fort Collins. A number of considerations by public and private agencies have indicated the need to formulate a Master Plan for the property. These considerations include: - The need to, as a condition of rezoning, establish basic land use, access, traffic circulation, and site design guidelines. This will lay the foundation for more detailed Master Traffic Studies, Drainage Plans, and Utility Plans, which will be provided for City review with the plat and development plans for the first filing. - The City of Fort Collins planning department intends to begun work on a study of the Harmony entry corridor. The study will establish preliminary streetscape design guidelines and provide an overview of development opportunities and constraints. The proposed Master Plan in consistent with the existing design concepts associated with the Harmony Road Corridor. The Stromberger Property Master Plan is intended as a tool to assist in: - Avoiding creation of traffic problems that may result if the collector/arterial roadway pattern serving the area is not considered along with site specific development projects. - Allowing an on -site circulation system that can effectively direct most traffic toward Harmony and Timberline. - Provide a desirable mix of land uses in an attractive business park setting. - 1 - - Provide Fort Collins with a site that can compete for major regional employeers that may locate in northern Colorado. * The Stromberger Property, located midway between the Harmony Road/I-25 Interchange and College Avenue, represents: - A plan comprising a number of options for a user seeking a large [30 to 70 acre] site. - A chance to establish an alternative Master Planned business park with a zoning approach that will allow both the private and public sectors to become more responsive to economic development opportunities. - An opportunity to continue the high quality image, (both in visual and economic terms) that exists along the Harmony Corridor. - An excellent location to deal with regional traffic with minimal impact on local streets, on a site that is within convenient driving distance for local employees and shoppers The land use pattern indicated on the Stromberger Property Master Plan is consistent with the adopted Land Use Policies Plan of the City of Fort Collins regarding the location of industrial or business service uses, retail (regional/community shopping centers), and residential uses of various densities. At this time, there is no definite phasing or development schedule for the site. It is estimated that development may begin in 1989 and continue beyond the year 2000. The land uses indicated could provide employment for an estimated 3,000 to 4,000 persons. - 2 - J LAND USE BREAKDOWN . FLOOR AREA F.A.R. PARCEL AREA LAND USE OR MAXIMUM D.U.
