Dear Mr. Strickfaden:
Yesterday you visited the City of Fort Collins Zoning Office for
the purpose of obtaining permission to sell christmas trees from
the property at 4508 S. College Avenue in Fort Collins. This
undeveloped lot "is located directly north of the Phillips 66
station which is on the corner of S. College and Harmony Road. The
property is zoned by conditional (planned business with a PUD
condition). The conditional zoning means that the only uses which
are allowed on this lot are those that are specifically authorized
by an approved Planned Unit Development (PUD) plan.
Since no PUD plan has been approved by the City of Fort Collins for
4508 S. College, no uses are permitted on the property at this
time. Christmas tree sales are considered to be a retail sales
use, and since the Zoning Code requirements apply equally to uses
whether they are temporary or permanent, such sales are not
allowed. Permission to sell Christmas trees at this location can
only be given once a PUD is approved which allows retail sales, or
once the property is rezoned to a zone which allows retail sales as
a use -by -right.,
I have conferred with members of the Planning Department and the
City Attorney's office regarding this matter, and they agree that
the City Code contains no provisions which would authorize
permission to be given at this time to allow christmas tree sales
on your property at 4508 S. College Avenue.
Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions regarding
this matter.
