City of Fort Collins
Section 29-541 of the Code of the City of Fort Collins provides for Planning and Zoning
Board approval of a change of a non -conforming use and enlargement of a building containing
a non -conforming use. A non -conforming use is defined as any legally existing use which does
not conform to the use regulations of the zoning district classification in which the use is
located, either at the effective date of the zoning ordinance or as a result of zoning changes
which may be made over the years to the property. The process which the applicant will
follow in changing the use or enlarging a building containing a non -conforming use will be as
indicated in the section of this manual entitled "Review Process." The following issues must be
considered in an analysis and evaluation of a change in a non -conforming use or an enlarge-
ment of a building containing a non -conforming use:
1. Change of Use
If a property owner wishes to change the use of a property already containing a non-
conforming use to a use other than what is allowed in the zoning district, the proposal must
be submitted to the Planning and Zoning Board for approval. In considering a proposed
change, the Planning and Zoning Board must make a finding as to whether or not the change
in use is more compatible with the uses of the surrounding property than the existing
non -conforming use. For the purposes of review, the following criteria shall be considered:
a.
The
nature and purpose of the existing
non -conforming use.
b.
The
difference in quality and character
of the proposed use.
c.
The
difference in the degree of use of
the proposed use, including but not limited to
hours
of operation and parking requirements.
d.
The
reasons for the proposed change.
e.
The
overall impact of the proposed use
on the surrounding property.
2. Enlargement of Building Containing a Non -Conforming Use
If a property owner
wishes to enlarge or extend a building containing a
non -conforming use,
the proposal must be
submitted for approval to the Planning and Zoning
Board.
In considering
the enlargement or extension of a building containing a non -conforming
use, the
Board must
make a finding as to
whether or not the enlargement or extension will adversely
affect the
surrounding property.
For the purposes of review, the following criteria
will be
considered:
a. The nature of the proposed expansion or extension.
b. The size of the proposed expansion or extension.
c. The difference in the degree of use of the non -conforming use as a result of the
proposed expansion or extension.
d. The reasons for the proposed expansion or extension.
e. The overall impact of the proposed expansion or extension on the surrounding property.
