City of Fort Collins
March 2. 2000
Dear Resident:
On Monday, March 20, 2000 from 7:00 to 9:00 p.m. at Lesher Junior High School, 1400 Stover
Street*, the City of Fort Collins Current Planning Department will conduct a neighborhood
information meeting to discuss a development proposal in your neighborhood.
The use of the building at 1516 Remington recently was changed from a "fraternity" to a "group
home" for the 24 hour care and supervision of up to 8 foster children from 12 to 18 years in age.
The operator of that group home would now like to seek a modification to the Land Use Code
to allow up to 20 foster children to be residents of the group home.
What can you expect from attending the neighborhood meeting? The purpose of a
neighborhood meeting is to open a line of communication between the developer and the neighbors.
This is the forum through which the neighbors can express their concerns, city staff can explain the
development review process, and the developer can explain to the neighbors what he/she is
intending to do with the project and answer questions from the neighbors. Meeting minutes are
taken by city staff, and become part of the project file. Neighborhood meetings are typically
scheduled early in the project, before any design decisions have been finalized so the flexibility still
exists for the input of neighbors to perhaps be integrated into the project.
The list of affected property owners for this neighborhood information meeting is derived from official
records of the Larimer County Assessor. Because of the lag time between home occupancy and
record keeping, or because of rental situations, a few affected property owners may have been
missed. Please feel free to notify your neighbor of this pending meeting so all neighbors may have
the opportunity to attend. If you are unable to attend this meeting, written comments are welcome.
If you have any questions regarding this matter, please call my office at 221-6750
incerely,
