DATE: July 3, 1990
' FORT COLLINS CITY COUNCIL STAFF: Kirsten Whetstone
SUBJECT:
Resolution 90-98 Finding Substantial Compliance and Initiating Annexation
Proceedings for the Foothills Water Tank Annexation.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends adoption of the Resolution.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
The applicant and property owner, the City of Fort Collins, is requesting
annexation of approximately 4.61 acres located north of Prospect Road
(extended) and west of Overland Trail. The property is generally located
northwest of the CSU football stadium and north of the Maxwell Open Space
area, which is also owned by the City. This property is the current
location of one of the City's water tanks.
The proposed Resolution makes a finding that the annexation substantially
complies with the Municipal Annexation Act. The annexation and zoning
ordinances will be presented to Council for First Reading on August 7, 1990
in order to provide the County with 35 days review as required by the IGA
for the Urban Growth Area.
The property is located outside 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 can consider the annexation of property
outside of the UGA by giving the County proper notice and justification for
the annexation. The City has recently annexed other City -owned open space
areas along the foothills when they satisfied the contiguity requirements.
The property gains the required 1/6 contiguity to existing city limits from
a common boundary with the Maxwell Open Space Annexation to the south.
Planning and Zoning Board Recommendation:
The Planning and Zoning Board conducted a public hearing on the request for
annexation and zoning at its regular monthly meeting on June 25, 1990, and
approved the request unanimously (6-0) on its Consent agenda.
