A project in south Fort Collins that will see the construction of a combination of 82 residential units has received an important green light.
The Fort Collins Planning and Zoning Commission has given its approval to the overall development of what is being called the Heartside Hill residential development.
As planned, the project at a just under 11-acre site at the intersection of Trilby and LeMay avenues, will see the construction of both multi-family and single-family units, with 71 being designated as affordable housing.
The project will go up on land donated by the Heart of the Rockies Christian Church, and will see a variety of configurations, with half a dozen three-story buildings housing anywhere from one- to four-bedroom units.
As proposed, the project will also see the building of an early childhood education center. Additional plans call for the creation of a 5,000-square-foot park that will include a covered pavilion, swings, and sandbox play area.
The project has been in the talking stage for more than two years.
