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 Vine Business Park Annexation to the north. The surrounding zoning and existing land uses are as follows: N: I-L; undeveloped. E: FA-1; undeveloped. S: O-Open; CO-OP commercial. W: I -Industrial; undeveloped. The requested zoning for this annexation is the I-L, Limited Industrial District with a PUD condition. The I-L District designation is for light industrial uses, including such uses as the manufacturing of electronic instruments, preparation of food products, pharmaceutical manufacturing, research and scientific laboratories and the like. Light industry shall not include uses such as mining and extracting industries, petrochemical industries, rubber refining, primary metal and related industries. A limited number of commercial uses are also allowed in the I-L zone. The property will probably eventually develop with industrial and/or commercial land uses. According to the City's LAND USE POLICIES PLAN, industrial uses should locate in areas which offer the required transportation facilities for such uses. This site addresses these locational policies. There are no immediate development plans for the property. The PUD condition placed on the property will require all development proposals to be submitted as planned unit developments and reviewed against the criteria of the Land Development Guidance System.
