RE: New Laurel Elementary School
Dear Mr. Spearnak:
On Monday, February 24, 1992, at their regular meeting, the City of
Fort Collins Planning and Zoning Board voted to advise the Poudre
School District R-1 that the location, character, and extent of the
proposed New Laurel Elementary School is appropriate. The proposed
New Laurel School is found to be in compliance with the Master Plan
for the City of Fort Collins. The approval was by a unanimous vote
of four to zero.
The Site Plan approved is designated as Schematic Plan "B-211. This
plan meets the objectives of providing landscaping and buffering
the existing homes on Colorado Street. In addition, since Laurel
Street is not the primary access, sidewalks on both sides of Laurel
Street, from Stover Street on the west to the Laurel Street access
on the east, will not be required as part of this Site Plan
Advisory Review.
The Planning and Zoning Board recognized that there are
neighborhood compatibility issues that are beyond the immediate
control of the Poudre School District. It is advised, therefore,
that the Facilities Services Department - of- the. -Poudre R-1 School Dpar District continue to work with the City of Fort Collins etments
of Planning, Transportation, Engineering, and Parks and Recreation,
the .Poudre Valley Hospital, and the neighboring residents on
locational and transportation issues relating to the future
neighborhood park, the Laurel Street to Pennock Place connection,
and the parking lot for the Family Care Center.
If you have any questions regarding this action by the Planning and
Zoning Board, please do not hesitate to call our office.
Sincerely:
Ted Shepard
Senior Planner
