Staff recommends that a PUD condition be applied to the area to be rezoned B-P. The Planning and Zoning Board voted 7-0 to recommend approval of the rezoning requests. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: This is a request to rezone approximately 168.5 acres from the T-Transition zone to the B-P, Planned Business zone (36.8 acres) and the R-P, Planned Residential zone (131.7 acres) located east of Timberline Road and north of East Horsetooth Road. The property is currently undeveloped. APPLICANT: Timberline Partnership OWNER: Same 4875 Pearl East Circle Suite #300 Boulder, CO 80301 BACKGROUND: The applicant and owner, the Timberline Partnership, has submitted a written petition requesting the rezoning of approximately 168.5 acres from the T- Transition zone to the B-P, Planned Business zone (36.8 acres) and the R-P, Planned Residential zone (131.7 acres) located east of Timberline Road and north of East Horsetooth Road. The property is currently undeveloped. The property was annexed into the city as part of the Blue Spruce Farm Annexation and placed into the T-Transition zone in 1986. The T zoning designation is for areas which are in a transitional stage with regard to ultimate development. The T zone allows properties to be annexed and zoned without a specific commitment to development being made at the time of annexation. The only uses allowed in the T zone are those uses which existed on the property at the time of annexation. The owner of any property in the T district may at any time petition the City to remove the property from the T zone. The rezoning petition is referred to the Planning and Zoning Board for consideration at their next regular meeting. Within 60 days from the date the rezoning is considered by the Board, the City Council must change the zoning of the property to another zoning district. The rezoning of this property from T to B-P and R-P will allow development to be proposed for the property. The Pinecone PUD Overall Development Plan has been submitted for Planning and Zoning Board review. The surrounding zoning and existing land uses are as follows: DATE: February 4, 1992 `I -2- t .ITEM NUMBER: 14 N: FA-1, Farming, undeveloped E• FA-1 Farmin undevelo ed 9, p S: B-P and R-P, undeveloped W: R-H, High Density residential, office park, and R-L, Low Density Residential, single-family residential The requested zones for this rezoning are the B-P, Planned Business, District, and the R-P, Planned Residential, District. The B-P District designation is for areas planned as a unit to provide business services while still protecting surrounding residential areas. The R-P District designation is for areas planned as a unit to provide a variation in use and building placement. The property will probably eventually develop with a mixture of business and residential uses. A portion of the area will be developed as the site for the new Fort Collins High School. According to the City's LAND USE POLICIES PLAN, business uses should locate: in areas where there is adequate existing infrastructure, or infrastructure can adequately be upgraded to meet development demands, and in areas that encourage the utilization of alternative transportation modes. Neighborhood scale business uses are encouraged to locate in close proximity to residential areas. Residential areas are encouraged to provide a mixture of residential densities and housing types. The proposed zones will help accomplish the City's policies. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends approval of the requested rezonings. Staff recommends a limited PUD condition to be placed on the area to be rezoned B-P, Planned Business, to emphasize that no business development is allowed in the zone without having a PUD approved by the Planning and Zoning Board. The B-P zone authorizes basically two uses: (1) any use permitted in the R-M, Medium Density Residential, zone, and (2) any use developed as a PUD. Since business uses are not authorized in the R-M zone, already must be processed through the LDGS PUD system even in the absence of the imposition of a PUD condition. Uses permitted in the R-M zone could still be developed within the area to be zoned B-P without being processed through the LDGS. By reviewing business development proposals in the B-P zone, the Board can assure the proposals are compatible with adjacent uses, especially residential uses. Staff does not feel a PUD condition is necessary for the R-P zone. The R-P zone allows single-family residential developments through the subdivision process. Land uses typically associated with single-family development, i.e., churches, schools, etc., are also uses -by -right in the R-P zone. any proposed multi -family development and/or non-residential development in the R-P zone must be processed as a PUD. PLANNING AND ZONING BOARD RECOMMENDATION: The Planning and Zoning Board, at its regular monthly meeting on January 27, 1992, voted 7-0 to recommend approval of the requested rezonings as part of the Consent Agenda. 4 ORDINANCE NO.10, 1992 OF THE COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF FORT COLLINS AMENDING THE ZONING DISTRICT MAP OF THE CITY OF FORT COLLINS, BY CHANGING THE ZONING CLASSIFICATION FOR THAT CERTAIN PROPERTY KNOWN AS THE PINECONE PUD REZONING BE IT ORDAINED BY THE COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF FORT COLLINS: Section 1.
