Louisville City Council Meeting March 5, 2002 Page 6 13.23-acre parcel known as the Avista Adventist Hospital Annexation. Ordinance No. 1380, Series 2002, zones the 13.23-acre parcel annexed under the Avista Adventist Hospital Annexation to (PCZD-C), Planned Community Zone District Commercial. Wood reviewed the annexation proposal and stated that the parcel consisted of three ownership parcels and is impacted by a standing IGA for US 36. The three owners are as follows: Boulder County - 3.15 acres, Porter Care Adventist Heath Systems - 1 acre, and Clay Scott and Kent Carlson - 9.08 acres. Wood reviewed the annexation petition requests that the parcel be zoned to Planned Community Zoned District - Commercial (PCZD-C). The zoning requests is in the form of a General Development Plan (GDP), which would be processed as an amendment to the existing GDP approved in 1998. The GDP, as currently adopted, provides for a total build-out of approximately 750,000 SF. The density is distributed through the GDP plan in a series of zones with the health park having the highest density. The proposed GDP reflects the easterly portion of the development parcel designation of "priority future phase," and the westerly portion would be designated as "restricted development parcel." Wood explained that the Louisville Municipal Code provides that ground to be incorporated into an existing GDP be under one ownership. Through a series of land exchanges, the full 13.23 acres will be conveyed to Porter Care Adventist Health Systems. Upon finalization of the land exchanges, the entire annexation parcel will be under single ownership of the Porter Care Adventist Health System. Wood stated that the GDP proposes a 165' wide parcel as fee dedication or a conservation easement. He stated that the proposed building setback from that parcel would be 50'. The building setback for three-story development would be 200' to 220' from the common property line with Coal Creek Subdivision. He noted that the PCZD-C zoning does establish the setbacks from US 36. Wood reviewed Resolution No. 6, Series 2002, which addresses the IGA. He noted that the IGA designates the easterly 10 acres of the annexation parcel as Rural Preservation, and the westerly 3.1 acres as Open Space. The provision provides that the Rural Preservation Parcel may be treated as Louisville Influence Area, thereby allowing Louisville to annex the parcel, upon the occurrence of a fee dedication of land for open space purposes. A proposed IGA amendment would facilitate the annexation of a portion of the Rural Preservation/City Influence Area, and permit the open space to be dedicated by a fee conveyance or a conservation easement. Wood stated that John Sackett, of Avista Adventist Hospital, and Lynn A. Moore, of Davis Partnership Architects represent the applicant. Davidson called for applicant presentation. 6
