BACKGROUND:
The applicant, Gary Nordic, on behalf of the owner, Eric Peterson, has submitted
a written petition requesting annexation of approximately 10,605 square feet
located just south of the terminus of Westview Road, south of Country Club Road.
The requested zoning is the R-P, Planned Residential, District. The property is
presently developed as a part of Lot #5 of the Terry Ridge Subdivision. The area
to be annexed will be used as street right-of-way to provide access to the
Pheasant Ridge Estates Subdivision, a proposed residential development within the
city limits. The property is currently zoned FA Farming 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 a common boundary with
the Pickett Annexation to the south.
The surrounding zoning and existing land uses are as follows:
N: FA, Farming, Terry Ridge Subdivision
E: FA, Farming, Terry Ridge and Puebla Vista Estates Subdivisions
S: R-P, Planned Residential, undeveloped
W: FA, Farming, non -subdivision development
The requested zoning for this annexation is the R-P, Planned Residential
District. The R-P District designation is for areas planned as a unit to provide
a variation in use and building placement. The area to be annexed will provide
street right-of-way access to property which will eventually develop as the
Pheasant Ridge Estates Subdivision located within the city limits.
On July 22, 1991, the Planning and Zoning Board reviewed a preliminary plan for
the Pheasant Ridge Estates Subdivision, a request for 25 single-family lots
located on 19.23 acres. The Board voted 6-0 to approve the preliminary plan with
the following four conditions:
A 46 foot wide dedicated right-of-way (ROW) be secured by the
developer/owner of Pheasant Ridge Estates from the owners of Lot #5
prior to final approval. This access easement must be accepted by
the County and recorded with the Larimer County Clerk and Recorder's
office prior to recording of Pheasant Ridge Estates subdivision
plat.
2. The determination of responsibility for perpetual maintenance of the
two detention ponds be made by the City Stormwater Utility prior to
final approval.
3. A landscape plan for the on -site detention ponds be submitted to the
City for final review.
4. Access from Spaulding Lane be reviewed by the Board with
recommendations from staff at the time of final.
This annexation will assist the developer of the Pheasant Ridge Estates
subdivision in fulfilling condition #1 above. Staff expects opposition from the
residents of the Terry Ridge Subdivision to this annexation because the
annexation will facilitate the connection of an access point from the Pheasant
Ridge Estates subdivision to Westview Road. From staff's perspective concerning
the connection to Westview Road, it is clear the Larimer County Board of
Commissioners intended to provide access to properties south of Terry Ridge
Subdivision via an extension of Westview Road when the Commissioners required a
60' wide reservation for future road R.O.W. as a part of both Lot #5 and Lot #.6
of the Terry Ridge Subdivision. Technically, the annexation of this area for
street R.O.W. will do no more than officially "bend" the existing road R.O.W.
reservation to the southwest, rather than going straight south as was previously
anticipated.

Findings
irEM NUMBER: 35 a-c
The annexation of this area is consistent with the policies and agreements
between Larimer County and the City of Fort Collins contained in the
INTERGOVERNMENTAL AGREEMENT FOR THE FORT COLLINS URBAN GROWTH AREA.
2. The area meets all criteria included in State law to qualify for a
voluntary annexation to the City of Fort Collins.
3. On January 7, 1992, the City Council approved a resolution which accepts
the annexation petition and determines that the petition is in compliance
with State law. The resolution also initiates the annexation process for
this property by establishing the date, time and place when a public
hearing will be held regarding the readings of the Ordinances annexing and
zoning the area.
4. The requested R-P, Planned Residential, District is in conformance with
the policies of the City's Comprehensive Plan.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends approval of the annexation and requested zoning.
PLANNING AND ZONING BOARD RECOMMENDATION:
The Planning and Zoning Board, at its regular monthly meeting on January 27,
1992, voted 7-0 to recommend approval of the proposed annexation and requested
zoning. As expected, several area property -owners raised questions and concerns
with the annexation at the Board's hearing. Most of the questions and concerns
related to the proposed Pheasant Ridge Subdivision, approved by the Board in July
of 1991, and not with the annexation per se. A copy of the Board's minutes is
attached.
