ONE January 11, 1991 Mr. Ted Shepard, Project Planner City of Fort Collins � Development Services/Planning Department D LS �I,S a� P.O. Box 580 Fort Collins, CO 80522-0580 1 41991 RE: Proposed Taco Bell Restaurant South College Avenue and Prospect Road Dear Ted, This letter is to request that the above referenced item be '.dt-hdr= ... fr^:n +- .o ? _F^= �L •IiN.r m4. January 2Q IQQI -heJ J 1 _2 ` I Planning and Zoning Commission hearing. As we discussed on the telephone, this request for withdrawal is being made for the following reasons: 1. The revisions requested in your December 18, 1990 letter of review for the construction of a new restaurant facility (Taco Bell Standard Plan) are unacceptable to the Owner. 2. A period of additional time will be required for the local franchisee to receive written approval and authorization from Taco Bell Corporation to further pursue remodeling and adaptive reuse of the Wickersham residence at 1530 South College Avenue for use as a Taco Bell Restaurant. While the above statements summarize our reasons for withdrawal at this time, the Owner is also extremely concerned with the city's position regarding the land required for the proposed right-of-way improvements. The Owner feels as though the City of Fort Collins should acquire the required property by purchasing it at fair market value or offer an equal sum of money as credit against development fees for both the College/Prospect and College/Boardwalk Taco Bell sites. When we spoke on the telephone, I suggested that you set up a meeting with the proper city staff people to discuss this topic with the Owner. I think this would be an excellent idea because this is a critical issue which could determine whether or not the owner proceeds with any new development plans at the Prospect site. Please let me know when you are able to arrange a meeting time. Sincerely, t a,(10 ?0&e(,—_ Alan Haus r, Architect Architecture One, P.C. 150 EAST 29TH STREET PALMER GARDENS, SUITE 200 LOVELAND.
