RE: Planning Objectives - Animal Medical Center of Fort Collins
Dear Board Members:
We are submitting a preliminary and final site plan for the Animal Medical
Center of Fort Collins P.U.D. for your review. The site is 19,000 SF located at
the southwest corner of Myrtle Street and College Avenue.
The site is bordered on the south by Canino's Italian Restaurant; to the west is
an apartment building; to the north across Myrtle Street is First Presbyterian
Church; to the east across College Avenue is a gas station.
There are many existing mature trees and shrubs on this site.
The site formerly housed the Beebe Medical Clinic and we propose to replace this
with a veterinary hospital of approximately 7,000 SF. The site allows for 15
on -site parking spaces in a well landscaped existing environment. Additional
landscaping has been added to the south to screen the facility.
The existing zone allows for a veterinary clinic, but does not allow for the
overnight boarding of animals. A P.U.D. is required for this purpose.
The project promotes the following City Planning Objectives:
3. Maximum utilization of land within the City.
14. Urban development standards shall apply to all development within the urban
growth area.
15. Development in the urban growth area should be consistent with development
policies set forth in the plan.
22. Preferential consideration shall be given to urban development proposals
which are contiguous to existing developments within the City limits or con-
sistent with the phasing plan for the City's urban growth area.
24. All utility extensions should be in conformance with the phased utility
expansion portion of the City's comprehensive plan.
26. Availability of existing services shall be used as a criteria in determining
the location of higher intensity areas in the City.

37. The City shall promote the downtown area as a focal point of the community
through such means as:
c. Defining and encouraging the location of proper uses in the area.
63. Neighborhood service centers should locate within walking distance of
existing or planned residential areas.
We hope this information will be of assistance to you in the review of this pro-
posed P.U.D. If you need any other information, please let me know.
Sincerely,
ZVFK ARCHITECTS/PLANNERS
