This property is outside of the Longmont Planning Area (LPA) in undeveloped Weld County. Special districts affected by this proposal include the St. Vrain Valley School District, St. Vrain-Leflhand Water District, Lefthand Water District, St. Vrain Sanitation District, and Mountain View Fire Protection District. This application has been referred to each of these entities for review and comment. This property is currently within the service area territory of Public Service Company for electric service. The property owner has submitted a petition for annexation and BLI (business light industrial) zoning. The concept plan for this property,which covers 131.5 acres, includes light industrial land uses and a 100-year floodplain and primary greenway associated with the St. Vrain River, affecting a small portion of this property's southeast corner. Accompanying the annexation petition is a concurrent application to amend the Longmont Planning Area to include the property in the LPA, with a proposed industrial/economic development land use designation. The following analysis reviews the characteristics of this area, the necessary improvements required for its development, and the associated development costs, where identified. II. PHYSICAL CHARACTERISTICS A. Soils The soils in this area are of a loam and sandy loam structure (Colby Loam, Weld Loam, and Otero Sandy Loam). The Colby and Otero series are rated as having good potential for urban development. The Weld series located on the northeast 1/3 of this property is rated as having moderate shrink-swell potential. Future construction should be of the type which compensates for these soil characteristics. B. Topography The site is predominately flat,with no slopes greater than three percent, except for the southern portion of the property near the St. Vrain River, where slopes approach nine percent. The high point is on the western boundary of the property with an elevation of 4,962 feet. The parcel slopes down toward the south and east where elevations are 4,926 feet. 1 C. Mineral Resources Mineral rights have not been severed from the property. There is an active oil and gas lease. There are no wells on the site. As a condition of the annexation agreement, the City will require the lease rights to be consolidated with the surface estate. D. Unique Resources • The St. Vrain River runs south of this property, with a small section touching the southeast corner of the parcel. The primary unique resource is the farmland, which the Resource Management System Study identifies as having national importance. E. Land Use The property's existing zoning is Weld County Agricultural. An existing residence and associated outbuildings (sheds and barns) are located on the southwest portion of the property. The owners intend for these structures to remain on the site until development occurs in this area. F. Drainage A drainage study will be required at time of preliminary plat. III. LAND USE PLAN This property is presently outside the Longmont Planning Area(LPA). A LPA Amendment is being processed concurrently with the annexation. The concept plan for this property, which covers 131.5 acres, includes light industrial land uses and a 100-year floodplain and primary greenway associated with the St. Vrain River. Scenic entry corridor landscaping is shown along the Highway 119 frontage. The concept plan would conform with the land use designations on the Longmont Area Comprehensive Plan (LACP) pending approval of the LPA Amendment. This property will be developed in several phases to be determined at time of preliminary plat and development plan. Access to the site would be via a proposed full movement intersection on State Highway 119 at Weld County Road #1-1/2 and a primary access point on County Line Road that lines up with Great Western Way, the street extension from the Mill Village project to the west. A secondary access point is also planned on County Line Road. IV. CAPITAL IMPROVEMENTS The following are general estimates of capital improvements that will be required to serve the Mayeda Annexation. These figures are estimates and are for the general purpose of obtaining an understanding of this site's approximate fiscal impact to the City. 2 • A. Fire Department The proposed annexation is three miles from Fire Station Three and 3.5 miles from Fire Station One. This places the site outside of the 5:59 response time required by LMC 15.14. However, the Mountain View Fire Protection District responding from their central station, located 1.25 miles south of the site on County Line Road, can satisfy the requirements of LMC 15.14 for this parcel. The current Mutual Aid agreement with the Mountain View Fire Protection District will cause them to respond automatically to any incident at this site. Longmont units will respond to all calls with Mountain View to provide backup. The mutual aid agreement may be terminated, with 60 days notice, by either party. As this parcel develops and starts to generate calls for service, the demand on the existing resources will increase. The impact to the community may first be realized through an increase in response time to emergencies. This is because as the existing equipment covers a larger and larger population, the odds of that equipment being committed to another call increase, thereby increasing the frequency of a response from a more distant station. Eventually this annexation and others on the east side will require relocation of Fire Station Three to the area of 9th and Pace. In 1997 dollars, the capital costs would be $958,750. Wages, benefits and operational costs are in the existing budget. Development in this annexation would be subject to Title 14, Chapter 46, of the Longmont Municipal Code,which delineates Public Buildings Community Investment Fees. City Cost Undetermined Developer Cost $153,600' B. Parks and Recreation Division The Longmont Area Comprehensive Plan indicates that this parcel's perimeter is designated as Primary Greenway, arterial right-of-way, and Scenic Entry Corridor as part of the LACP. Primary greenways typically require a 50-foot minimum width be designated for the required improvements. Along the St. Vrain River, this minimum requirement will ' Public Buildings CIF calculated at @$0.12/s.f.for 1.28 million s..f gross building area. 3 need to be increased to a minimum 50'from typical high water line, and possibly more to accommodate greenway corridor improvements. Improvements required within this area will include grading, landscaping, temporary irrigation, and an 8' wide concrete bikepath. Current Landscape Regulations are to be adhered to in dedication and/or developer-required construction. Any additional requirements from the Landscape Regulations to meet St. Vrain Greenway Master Plan requirements are to be paid for by the City. The primary greenway area totals approximately 22,500 s.f., with an approximate length of 450 linear feet. The arterial right-of-way landscaping and accompanying bikeway on County Line Road shows an estimated landscaped area of 67,200 s.f. and an estimated length of 2,400 linear feet. The arterial right-of- way landscaping and accompanying bikeway on State Highway 119 shows an estimated landscaped area of 75,600 s.f and an estimated length of 2,700 linear feet. The developer is responsible for required improvement costs. The scenic entry corridor will require a minimum 50' buffer designated for this purpose. Within the buffer will be developer-installed irrigated landscaping and other improvements per City of Longmont requirements. As the scenic entry corridor development standards are open to developer-established standards with the provision for City review and approval, developer costs are not able to be quantified at this time. The Parks and Recreation Division may incur purchase cost for any additional land designated as a primary greenway along the St. Vrain River. Those purchase costs are to be negotiated with the owner at a future date and are not available at this time. City Cost Undetermined Developer Cost Primary Greenway $23,580 Arterial landscaping $352,308 Scenic entry corridor Undetermined TOTAL $375,8882 C. Storm Drainage The developer is responsible for the preparation of a drainage plan and report on the entire property, in accordance with the City's Storm Drainage Criteria Manual. The plan, and addenda, will be reviewed and approved prior to approval of any plats. Any drainage facilities needed to control irrigation and storm water as required by the drainage plan will be constructed'by the developer at his expense. These facilities 2 Based on 22.500 s.f of primary greenway at$0.68/s.f.and 450 linear fed of primary greenway bikeway at$18.40/I.f.,plus 142,800 s.f ofarterial landscaping at$1.81,s.f.and 5,100 linear fed of arterial bikeway at$18.40/1.f.

If land to the west of this propaty is not developed the future developer costs would need to be paid by the Transportation Investment Fee 5 3. Unnamed North-South and East-West Collectors The developer will be responsible for right-of-way dedication plus the cost of a collector street, together with the cost of any additional improvements specifically required to serve the site, including but not limited to accel/decel lanes. City Cost None • Developer Cost $382,799° Future Developer Cost $ 86.580 TOTAL Unnamed Collectors $469,379 E. Water Distribution Currently, there is limited treatment capacity to serve this development when build- out occurs in the existing annexed developments. The allocation of water service shall be on a first come/first served basis at the time of final plat recording and as outlined in the MOAPI. As a minimum, to serve the site, the developer must construct the water lines listed below. Only the major water lines necessary to serve the site are listed. All smaller on-site water lines will be the sole responsibility of the developer. The developer will be required to provide a looped water system for each phase of development. The following water lines are necessary to serve this property: a 16" water line along Highway 119 from County Line Road to the east property line. The 12" water line in County Line Road, as shown on the Master Plan, was shifted to the west as part of the Mill Village Subdivision construction plans. Mill Village will extend an 8" line to County Line Road which will connect to the water system for this development to provide the looped water system. In the event that this property develops prior to Mill Village, the developer will be required to construct a 12" water line in County Line Road from the south boundary of the property to Highway 119 to provide the looped system. City Cost $106,1905 1 Developer cost includes the full cost of the east-west collector at 5296.219 and'/z the cost of the north-south collector at$86,580. If land to the east of this property is not developed the Future developer costs would need to be paid by the Transportation Investment Fee. 5 Includes 2.595 Lf of 16"line in 514 119 and 2,3951.E of 12"line in County Line Road. City water line oversizing costs are recovered through the Water Developm it Fee assessed at the time of building permit. Costs based on City master plan estimates of 53.50 per foot per inch diameter for water lines. 6 Developer Cost $139,720` F. Wastewater Collection The majority of this property does not gravity drain into the collection system (Interceptor G) crossing Highway 119 east of County Line Road. A lift station will need to be constructed near the southeast corner of the site with a force main extending northwest to the existing Interceptor G. The developer will be required to construct the force main and lift station at his own expense. The allocation of City wastewater treatment service shall be on a first come/first served basis at the time of final plat recording and as outlined in the MOAPI. Only the major sewer lines necessary to serve the site have been computed. All smaller on-site sewer lines will be the sole responsibility of the developer. City Cost None Developer Cost $262,500' G. Electric Department The approximate infrastructure cost to the Electric Department to serve this parcel is $475,000 and will vary depending on final electric load densities. The developer is responsible for the construction costs incurred by the Electric Department to extend to and provide the electric distribution system necessary to serve this site. These costs are site specific and cannot be reasonably estimated using information available to date. The developer is also responsible for all costs associated with the transfer of service territory within the annexed property to the City of Longmont from Public Service Company of Colorado (PSCO). These costs include but are not limited to lost revenue, purchase and/or removal or relocation costs of PSCO electric facilities, are presently dictated by a service territory transfer agreement with PSCO, and may vary with annexation and subsequent development timing. 6 Includes 2.595 fed of l6 line in SH 119 from County Line Road to the east property line and 2,395 fed of 12"line in County Line Road from the south boundary of the property to SH 119(required if this property develops prior to Mill Village). Costs based on City master plan estimates of$3.50 per foot per ink diameter for water lines. Costs based on City master plan estimates of 545 per foot for the force main. Includes$150,000 for a sewer lift station and 2,500 fed of 8"force main. 7 City Cost $475,0008 Developer Cost Undetermined H.

SERVICE DELIVERY - ANNUAL FISCAL IMPACT The fiscal impact model evaluates the impact on recurring revenues and expenditures of the general fund and street fund upon full build out. It is not a precise projection and the results should be viewed as generally positive or negative. The fiscal model inputs are based on City data and values. The fiscal impact was calculated for the light industrial areas. Revenues Expenditures Surplus(Deficit) Industrial $1,389,000 $664,000 $724,000 a Retleus City off-site elastic infrastructure costs. City costs are recovered through the Electric Community Investment Fee at the time of Building Permit. 9 This is a partial estimate of costs known at this time. Complete costs are determined at final plat l0 Includes 5203.606 estimated for Transportation Investment Fee,$276,520 estimated for arterial street costs,and$469,379 estimated for collator street costs. 11 City water line ovesizing costs are recovered through the Water Development Fee assessed at the time of building permit 12 City off-site electric costs are recovered through the Electric Community Investment Fee at the time of building permit 8 Net Fiscal Impact $724,000" VI. FINDINGS 1. This property is presently outside of the Longmont Planning Area (LPA). A LPA Amendment is being processed concurrently with the annexation, with a proposed industrial/economic development land use designation. The concept plan would conform with the land use designations on the Longmont Area Comprehensive Plan pending approval of the LPA Amendment. 2. This property has no significant development constraints, although the soils' shrink- swell potential will need to be taken into consideration, as well as floodplain areas associated with the St. Vrain River. 3. The developer will be responsible for the construction of drainage and street improvements and water and sewer utility extensions to serve this property. 4. The net fiscal impact on the City identified by the fiscal impact model is positive. VII. CONCLUSION Based on the findings of this annexation impact report, the City can provide the Mayeda Annexation with necessary urban level services without incurring a negative fiscal impact. If this annexation is approved, an annexation agreement and future memoranda of agreements for public improvements for the development of this property will further address the specific responsibilities of the City and the developer. • "Basal on a total estimated market value of$136,800,000 for the industrial land and buildings and an estimated 3,660 employees at full development. Potential retail uses that could be pamitted within the BLI zoning areas was not modeled due to lack of plan specificity at this time. 9 Hello
