STAFF REPORT
PROJECT: Stone Ridge Amended Overall Development Plan, #21-92E
APPLICANT: Les Kaplan
The Kaplan Company
1060 Sailors Reef
Fort Collins, CO 80525
OWNER: Same
PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
This is a request to amend the Overall Development Plan of Stone Ridge
P.U.D. to modify the existing parcels and lower the overall
residential density. The site is 92 acres and is located at the
northwest corner of East Horsetooth Road and County Road #9. The
zoning is R-L-P, Low Density Planned Residential.
RECOMMENDATION: Approval
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
The primary change on the Amended O.D.P. is to convert Parcel D (10.4
acres) from patio homes to single family. This results in a reduction
in the overall number of units. In addition, the future recreational
center shifts to a more central location. The Amended O.D.P.
continues to conform with the plans and policies of the Land Use
Policies Plan. The Amended O.D.P. remains compatible with the
surrounding area and the transportation network remains unaffected.

Stone Ridge P.U.D. was originally part of the Webster Farm which was
annexed and zoned on July 7, 1992. The Final P.U.D. for Phase One of
Stone Ridge P.U.D. was approved on July 27, 1993. Phase One includes
patio homes and traditional single family lots. The request for an
amended O.D.P. is also accompanied by a request for a Final P.U.D. on
Phase Two.

As can be seen by the table, the primary change to the O.D.P. is the
conversion of Parcel D from Patio Homes to Single Family. The overall
effect is a reduction in the total number of units from 299 to 252
units. Also, Parcel E (Townhomes/Apts.) increases in size from 11 to
12 acres. Parcel F (Recreation Complex) is shifted to the west so
that it is more central to the project. All other parcels remain
unaffected.
3. Land Use:
The original O.D.P. was approved in June of 1992. As amended, Stone
Ridge remains a residential project offering traditional single family
lots, patio homes, and townhome/apartments. The revisions are minor
in scope and do not vary significantly from the approved uses.
While there is an overall reduction in the total number of dwelling
units, this is primarily due to the low density on the single family
parcels. Parcels A (Filing One), D (Filing Two), and C (Future) are
designed to feature typical urban lot sizes ranging from 9,000 to
11,000 square feet but are surrounded by commonly owned open space.
These greenbelts are anticipated to contribute to the integration of
the various housing types within the entire O.D.P. With patio homes
and townhomes/apartments, Stone Ridge offers more residential variety
than English Ranch Subdivision, Fox Meadows Subdivision, and Sunstone
P.U.D., adjacent residential developments to the south.
The Stone Ridge Amended O.D.P. has been reviewed by the criteria of
the Land Use Policies Plan and continues to be supported those
policies.
4. Neighborhood Compatibility:
Since the Amended O.D.P. offers residential uses and retains a mix of
housing densities, it is similar to the adjacent land uses to the
south (English Ranch Subdivision) and west (Dakota Ridge P.U.D.). Due
to this residential character, the Amended O.D.P. continues to be
compatible with the surrounding area.
5. Transportation:
The amended O.D.P. does not affect the network of local streets and
bicycle paths. Connections will remain to the adjacent uses on north
and south. The intersections with Horsetooth Road do not change.

RECOMMENDATION:
Staff finds that the request for an Amended O.D.P. continues to
promote the plans and policies of the Land Use Policies Plan. The
Amended O.D.P. remains compatible with the surrounding area and the
transportation network remains unaffected. Staff, therefore,
recommends approval of Stone Ridge Amended Overall Development Plan,
#21-92E.
