Box 580 • Fort Collins, Colorado 80522 • (303) 221-6750 SERVICES, PLANNING DEPARTMENT Front Range Farms II Annexation and Zoning - #56-87,A December 14, 1987 P & Z Meeting Page 2 1. Background: The applicant, Intermill Land Surveying, on behalf of the owner, Floyd Deines, is requesting annexation of approximately 79.45 acres, located north of East Vine Drive and east of I-25. The property is presently 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 Vine Business Park Annexation to the west. 2. Zoning: The requested zoning for this annexation is the I-L, Limited Indus- trial, Zoning District. The I-L district designation is for light industrial uses. Given the property's location adjacent to a new I-25 interchange, the eventual development of industrial and commercial uses is highly probable. According to the City's LAND USE POLICIES PLAN, industrial and commercial uses should locate near transportation facil- ities that offer adequate access without creating demands which exceed the capacity of the existing transportation network, and in areas where proper utilities can be provided. This site addresses these locational policies. There are no immediate development plans for the property. Road and utility improvements would be required during development. 3. Neighborhood Concerns: The property owner to the north has gone on record as being apposed to the annexation. His letter is attached. The State Highway Department has reviewed this request for annexation and zoning. A letter address- ing their concerns is also attached. 4. Findings: a) The annexation of this area is consistent with the policies and agreements between Larimer County and the City of Fort Collins con- tained in the INTERGOVERNMENTAL AGREEMENT FOR THE FORT COLLINS URBAN GROWTH AREA. b) The area meets all criteria included in State law to qualify for a voluntary annexation by the City of Fort Collins.
