RE: Paragon Point, Phase III
Planning Objectives
Dear Board Members:
In March the Board approved the Overall Development Plan and Phase I of Paragon
Point P.U.D., followed by approval of Phase II in October. The developer is now
ready to proceed with Phase III of the development. The site is located in southeast
Fort Collins, east of Lemay Avenue and north of Trilby Road. As you may recall,
the Paragon Point site has many natural resource amenities; in addition, Fossil Creek
meanders through the site, providing more landscape diversity and creating additional
habitat for wildlife. It is the developer's intent to preserve the site's many natural
resources, and a Natural Resource Management Plan was included with the Overall
Development Plan. Many elements of this Plan have been implemented at this time
and a field investigation has been conducted by myself and three members of the
Natural Resources Department.
Phase III completes the single-family residential development along Paragon Place and
extends Pheasant Drive south to create Pheasant Court. The lot sizes, roadway
alignment and street standards are consistent with those established in Phases I and II.
Phase III contains 50 lots, averaging about 11,000 square feet per lot. Common open
space associated with this phase abuts most lots and connects to the larger open -space
system of the project by means of landscaped walk corridors. Maintenance of this
area will be the responsibility of the Homeowner's Association.
City Land Use policies achieved by the plan include policy number 79, which states
that low -density residential uses should locate in areas which have easy access to
regional/community shopping centers, major employment centers, schools and parks,
and where a collector street affords the primary access. The plan also addresses
policy number 91, having to do with the protection of scenic and recreational values
of streams.
Thank you for your consideration, and we look forward to your comments.
Sincerely,
JIM SELL DESIGN
