ARAPAHOE/MOUNTAIN RIDGE FARM
Statement of Planning Objectives
September 4, 1987
Discussions between the" Fort Collins City Staff and
representatives of the Arapahoe and Mountain Ridge Farms have led
to the mutual conclusion that, although no .definite plans for
development of the subject.properties exist at this time, it is
appropriate that a Master Plan be formulated and approved. This
Master.Plan.is intended as a tool to assist in:
Determining the general street system serving the site and
adjacent properties. Areas of concern regarding the street
system include:
* The realignment of Harmony Road to connect.with County
Road 38E at Taft Hill Road.
* The extension of Seneca Street across .Harmony in an
alignment that will allow eventual extension to a safe
intersection with Taft Hill Road..
*. Improved future access to Johnson.Elementary School
The collector streets indicated on the proposed Master Plan
are generally consistent with the City's Master Street Plan,
and have been reviewed with the City Traffic Engineer.
- Determine the general land use pattern, anticipated with the
future development of the area.
Explore the site as a possible location for the Youth Sports
Center identified by Parks and Recreation as a future need
of the City. .
The land use pattern indicated on the Arapahoe/Mountain Ridge
Master Plan is consistent with the adopted Land Use Policie's Plan
of the City of Fort Collins, both with regard to neighborhood
planning.and locational criteria for various land uses.
There is no definite phasing or development schedule for the
site. It is estimated that development of the subject properties
may begin as early as 1989, and continue beyond 1995. The land
uses indicated would provide employment for an estimated 375
persons.
