Box 580 • Fort Collins, Colorado 80522 • (303) 221-6750 CONCEPTUAL REVIEW STAFF COMMENTS MEETING DATE: February 29, 1988 ITEM: Interstate Land Annexation and Master Plan. APPLICANT: G.T. Land Colorado Inc. c/o Cityscape Urban Design, 21 Old Town Square, #242, Fort Collins, CO 80524 LAND USE DATA: Request for annexation, zoning and approval of a master plan for 192 acres located west of 1-25 and north of Prospect Road. The master plan includes a regional shopping center on 86 acres, business service uses on 30 acres, multi -family housing on 28 acres and open space. COMMENTS: 1. At the present time the City has no facilities to provide electrical service to this site. The City is planning to bring power along the east side of I-25 and along Prospect Road to serve the Seven Lakes project within the next two years. Ample power would be available to the G.T. Land site within this same time frame. (Light and Power) 2. The East Larimer County Water District (ELCO) presently serving this site probably would not be able to provide adequate water to produce the fire flows required for development of this kind. There are no water lines scheduled to be built in this area in the next five years. If you intend to develop sooner or if you need a more definitive answer regarding the availability of City water, please contact me and I will set up a meeting to discuss your specific needs. (Water and Sewer) 3. The site is presently served by Boxelder Sanitation District. The City has no plans for extending sanitary sewer service to this area in the near future. (Water and Sewer) 4. The State has plans to replace the culvert crossing on I-25, enlarging the capacity to the 100 year storm. The City's plan to combine the Cooper Slough and Boxelder Creek drainage basins will not be implemented until 1995. (Storm Drainage) 0 5. The City has no immediate plans to extend a pedestrian/bike trail to this area. However, given the amount of open space, a trail system will make sense sometime in the future. (Parks and Recreation) 6. In order for the City to begin the annexation process we will need a legal description for each area proposed to be a separate zone. (Planning) 7. A neighborhood meeting will be required. The tentative date is set for March 29, 7-9 PM. The meeting place is yet to be determined. Please submit an APO list including all property owners within 500 feet. (Planning) 8. The Director of Planning has waived the requirement for a first phase preliminary, however a set of design guidelines for future development is required. (Planning) 9. Please contact Rick Ensdorff for traffic comments. No Text
