Background•
The applicant, C.A. Musgrave, on behalf of property owners, Harold
Fisher and James P. and Ruth Hoffman, has submitted a written
petition requesting annexation of approximately 44 acres located
south of East Lincoln Avenue and west of Lemay Avenue. The
requested zoning is the R-C, River Corridor District. The property
is presently developing as a nine hole expansion to the existing
Link-N-Greens Golf Course. The property is currently zoned O-Open
in the County. 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
consider the annexation of 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 common
boundaries with the Link-N-Greens Second Annexation and the
Springer Annexation to the west, the Northeast Consolidated
Annexation to the north, the Lemay Avenue Second Annexation to the
east, and the Highway 14 East Third Annexation to the south.
The surrounding zoning and existing land uses are as follows:
N: I-L, Limited Industrial, mini-warehouses and an undeveloped
industrial subdivision
E: I-Industrial and C-Commercial (County Zoning), undeveloped
S: B-P, Planned Business, undeveloped
W: R-C, River Corridor, Wastewater Treatment Plant #1 and the
Link-N-Greens Golf Course
The requested zoning for this annexation is the R-C, River Corridor
District. The R-C District designation is for areas developing
within the Downtown River Corridor District of the Cache La Poudre
River which includes recreational uses, such as golf courses.
Other uses within this particular area are guided by the POUDRE
RIVER TRUST LAND USE POLICIES PLAN. The property is presently
developing as an expansion to the Link-N-Greens Golf Course. The
golf course use was approved for the property by the Larimer County
Board of Commissioners through the County's Special Use Review
process under the current O-Open zoning. The annexation of the
property was a condition of approval by the County Commissioners.
