the Peterson Annexation and rural and larger lot residential development exists
east of the Streamside Annexation. Additionally, the Draft Land Use Plan for the
I-25 Sub Area Plan identifies the property as Urban Estate. Therefore, the
applicant has applied for U-E zoning in conformance with the Final Draft of the I-

STRUCTURE PLAN AMENDMENT
As mentioned, the Final Draft of the I-25 Sub Area Plan, which calls for U-E zoning, has not yet
been considered by the Planning and Zoning Board nor adopted by the City Council. Since the
Structure Plan Map indicates "Rural Open Lands/Stream Corridor and Employment," a Structure
Plan amendment is part of this request. The Structure Plan Map also designates I-25 as a
"Special Study Corridor" indica ' that 199 rsio th tructure Plan did not provide
sufficient guidance for land Cecig nd land use considerations were
anticipated. ��a t
A. Request
Section 2.9.4(H)(2)(a) allows a zoning request to be justified if the proposed
request is consistent with the City's Comprehensive Plan. (The Structure Plan is a
component of the Comprehensive Plan.)
According,to Council Resolution 2000-140, a Comprehensive Plan Amendment
may be approved if the City Council makes specific findings that:
• The ex ing Cit Dlanpela element thereof is in need of the
propos amen
• The proposed major plan amendment will promote the public welfare and
will be consistent with the vision, goals, principles and policies of City
and the elements thereof.
B. Staff Analysis of Structure Plan Amendment:
(1) Staff finds that the Structure Plan is in need of Change because the final
draft of the I-25 Sub Area Plan identifies that the property's designation
should be changed from it's current designation of "Rural Open Lands /
Stream Corridors" to a designation of "Urban Estate."

according to state law.
ZONING AND ANALYSIS:
The property is currently zoned FA1 - Farming in Larimer County. The requested zoning for
this annexation is the Urban Estate District (UE). An assignment of UE zoning is consistent with
the approved County subdivision (Peterson MILD) for the property. The site is a large vacant
property located between Industrial zoned property within the City Limits, and the Streamside
Planned Land Division, which is a County development application, of Urban Estate type
density, currently under revie loc*ape
ite. Although the developer is not
currently pursuing develop nt of at f this property will allow any
future development of the sit be revty's risdiction.
I-25 SUBAREA PLAN:

The parcel is contained within the I-25 Sub Area Plan. This sub -area plan is a
component of the I-25 Regional Communities Corridor Plan, which was adopted
by the City Council in November of 2001.

The Final Draft of the I-25 Sub Area Plan calls for a mix of neighborhoods and
densities. The Final Draft states: 'The Urban Estate classification is intended to
allow for choices of very low density and large -lot housing in the community, and
to provide a physical transition between urban development and rural/open lands.
Most of the undeveloped areas designated for residential development in the Sub
Area Plan are classified as Urban Estate areas, that will have a maximum
allowable density of two (2) dwelling units per acre. These areas provide for a
transition between the higher intensity commercial and industrial uses located
adjacent to the I-25 highway and a larger lot residential development (2 '/2 acre
lots) east of County Road 5."

Structure Plan amendment is also requested to change the designation of the property from Rural
Open Lands / Stream Corridor to Urban Estate.
This property is eligible for annexation according to CRS, requiring 1/6 contiguity to the existing

City limits. This meets the minimum 1773.88 feet required to achieve 1/6 contiguity. This
contiguity occurs through a common boundary with the Kirschner Annexation (December 1993).
The property is located within the Fort Collins Urban Growth Area (UGA). According to
