COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT PETITION REPORT
Petition No. ZC 16-03
Zone Change from RA to OP
4951 N. Butler Ave.
Planning & Zoning Commission Discussion of Petition ZC 16-3on April 28, 2016
Associate Planner Steven Saavedra presented the staff report for ZC 16-03, a request from
Carolyn Crowley for a zone change from RA Rural Agricultural to OP Office Professional for 1.7
acres located at 4951 N. Butler Avenue.
Ms. Crowley would like this zone change to allow for office use. The property is currently
vacant. The 2020 Future Land Use Map of the Comprehensive Plan recommends the subject
property to be Office Professional. Mr. Saavedra explained that there is Office Professional
zoning to the south and north of this property, Rural Agricultural to the east, and Residential to
the west; therefore, this would not be spot zoning and Office Professional would not negatively
impact the area.
Staff concludes that approval of ZC 16-03 is appropriate.
Carolyn Crowley of 7492 County Road 84 in Ft. Collins, CO commented that she was in
agreement with the recommendation.
