Statement of Planning Objectives
March 30, 1992
The proposed Mountain Ridge Farm PUD, First Filinq, is
consistent with the adopted Land Use Policies Plan of the City of
Fort Collins with regard to neighborhood planning and locational
criteria for low density residential development; specifically:
Policy 3 The City shall promote: ... The location of
residential development which is close to
employment, recreation, and shopping
facilities.
Policy 12 Urban density residential development usually
at three of more units to the acre should be
encouraged in the urban growth area.
Policy 79 Low Density residential uses should locate in
areas:
a. Which have easy access to existing or
planned neighborhood.... shopping
centers;
C. Within walking distance to an existing or
planned elementary school; and
d. Within walking distance to an existing or
planned neighborhood park and within easy
access to a community park. (The subject
property is approximately midway between
Rolland Moore Park and the tentative
location of the southwest community
park).
Landscape buffers - to be maintained by the adjacent property
owners - are proposed along the Shields Street right-of-way.
Additional landscape buffering is anticipated with completion of
the regional detention pond to the south of the site.
Development of Mountainridge Farm is expected to comprise a
total of four phases. Project build out is expected to be complete
by 1999.
