S.M NUMBER 1.1 No Text Poudre R-1, Junior High Science Lab Additions at Lesher, Blevins and Boltz, Site Plan Advisory Review, #7-93 February 22 1993 Page 3 4. Neighborhood Compatibility: All three Junior High Schools are located within established residential neighborhoods. Relative to the size of the existing schools, the additions are very small. For example, the following table compares the present size of each building with the size of the proposed science lab addition: SCHOOL PRESENT S.F. LAB ADDITION SQ. FT. % INCREASE Lesher 86,933 3,183 3.66% Blevins 91,448 3,327 3.64% Boltz 81,250 3,710 4.56% Staff finds that the proposed science lab additions are within the character of the existing Junior High facilities and fit comfortably within each campus. The additions do not impose themselves onto the adjacent residential properties. The closest lab to a residential structure is at Blevins Junior High School. The setback, with the lab addition, will be 80 feet. Staff finds that the three science lab additions have a negligible impact on the surrounding residential character and are compatible with the existing neighborhoods. 5. Design• Each addition will be attached and contiguous to the main building. There will not be any separate entrances to the labs. The exterior materials will match the existing buildings and the additions will be one story in height. RECOMMENDATION: Staff finds that the request for science lab additions at three Junior High Schools complies with the permitted uses allowed by the Low Density Zone District. The designs are compatible with the existing structures. There are no impacts on the existing neighborhoods associated with these additions. Staff finds that the design, location, and character of the science lab additions are appropriate and meet City plans and policies. Staff, therefore, recommends approval of Poudre R-1, Junior High Science Lab Additions at Lesher, Blevins and Boltz, Site Plan Advisory Review #7-93.

City's Right to Advisory Review: The City's right to conduct an advisory review of school facilities can be found in two sections of Colorado Revised Statutes: Section 22-32-124, and Section 31-23-209. Under these sections, the Planning and Zoning Board is authorized to make a finding as to the location, character, and extent of the public buildings and structures relative to the adopted Master Plan of the City. 3. Land Use• The science lab additions to the three Junior High Schools are considered to be complementary and compatible with the purpose and function of the role of a public school. According to the Zoning Code, public schools are considered to be a permitted land use in the R-L, Low Density Residential Zone. Public schools enhance the stability of neighborhoods and serve as focal points for neighborhood identity and activity.

The schools and size of the additions are as follows: Lesher - 3,183 sq. ft., Blevins - 3,327 sq. ft., and Boltz - 3,710 sq. ft. All three schools are located in the R-L, Low Density Residential Zone District. RECOMMENDATION: Approval EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: The science lab additions at three Junior High Schools are reviewed by the City as per two specific state statutes. Public schools are permitted uses in the R-L, Low Density Zone. Allowing public schools within residential areas promotes neighborhood stability and identity. The impact of the additions relative to the size of the existing structures is negligible. There are no impacts on surrounding properties. The location, character, and extent of the three science lab additions is appropriate and meets City plans and policies. COMMUNITY PLANNING AND ENVIRONMENTAL SERVICES 281 N. College Ave. P.O.
