Dear Ms. Whetstone:
Board of County Commissioners
221-7010
Post Office Box 1190
Fort Collins, Colorado 80522
We have reviewed the proposed Galatia Annexation to the City of Fort
Collins and would like to make two comments.
First, the annexation should include all the right of way for County
Road 44 from County Road 5 to Interstate-25. This may be the intent
but it is not clear on the plan submitted if all right of way is
included.
The second point is actually about annexations in general. The
Intergovernmental Agreement certainly allows the City or the County to
administratively extend the Urban Growth Area Boundary to include all
of an ownership that is currently divided by the Boundary. It seems
that the Agreement intends that a plan for the extension of urban level
services should be in place before piecemeal annexations occur which
prompt the extension of such services, particularly in cases where the
annexation expands the city limits beyond the current Urban Growth
Area.
This annexation does not appear to present
impacts on County facilities or services,
approval of the Galatia Annexation.
Sincerely,
�lrGi�c fp 1K ? �a-7
