The requested zoning is the R-P, Planned Residen- tial Zoning District. Of the four lots, one contains a single-family home while the other three are undeveloped. This is a voluntary annexation. 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 annex 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 Springbrook 1st Annexation to the east. The requested zoning for this annexation is the R-P Planned Residential Zoning District. The R-P District designation is for areas planned as a unit to provide a variation in use and building placement. Properties to the east and west are zoned in the R-P District. The property presently contains four lots of the Heinemann's Spring Creek Subdivision. One of the lots contains a single-family home while the other three are undeveloped. The R-P zone would allow single-family homes to be developed on the three vacant lots. Since these lots all have frontage on Taft Hill Road, an arterial street, the likelihood of single-family development is not very high. Other types of residential or non-residential uses could be proposed on the property through the LAND DEVELOPMENT GUIDANCE SYSTEM planned unit development ordinance. Proposed uses, other than single-family uses, would have to favorably address the criteria of the LDGS in order to be approved. There are no immediate development plans for the property. The applicants and owners have requested annexation due to the failure of their septic system. County Health Department regulations require connection to a public sewer upon failure of a septic system if a public sewer is available within 500 feet of the property. The City's Spring Creek Trunk Sewer Main is within this minimum distance. After discussing alternatives with City staff, the applicants and owners decided to request annexation rather than seek an Out of City Utility Request. 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. Anton Annexation and Zoning - #95-88,A December 19, 1988 P & Z Meeting Page 3 3. On December 20, 1988, the City Council will consider 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 second reading of the Ordinances annexing and zoning the property will be considered by the City Council on February 7, 1989. 4. The requested R-P Planned Residential District is in conformance with the policies of the City's Comprehensive Plan. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends approval of the annexation and requested zoning. lw INS m r!
