A fast food giant and a gigantic golf entertainment center have submitted early plans to build in a high-traffic area of Timnas.
McDonald’s, along with the outdoor recreation and golf entertainment centers, submitted a concept review application to the town’s planning department in late August, early in the formal development review process.
In May, rumors leaked that Topgolf was interested in building a golf entertainment center on a gravel lot on Costco’s western edge, south of Costco.
Topgolf was not named in the conceptual application, but Timnath has been seeking a popular golf center for months, with a potential incentive package that includes a 50% reduction in permits, construction and impact fees. offers. A 20-year excise tax contribution that is one-third of the current 3% excise tax. Speeding up the qualification process townwide, according to a December letter from Timnas Mayor Mark Soukup to Top Golf real estate manager Jonathan Torensky.
Timnath has targeted the Ladera Project, a 240-acre residential, commercial and mixed-use project being developed by Connell Resources, as a potential site for Topgolf. Connell used the site as a gravel pit for the surrounding construction. The location is highly visible, just east of Interstate 25, south of Harmony Road, and has been approved for annexation to Timnas. The area will also be home to a new Floor and Decor retail store nearing completion.
Town planner Kevin Kerbel told The Coloradoan on Tuesday that the developer has not requested any incentives at this time and that “there are no incentive packages associated with the concept plan at this time.” Just started and no full review yet. A conceptual review may not turn into an actual development application, he said.
The Ladera development is currently located on the floodplain, but grading work is being done by the Federal Emergency Management Agency removing it from the floodplain, Kerber said.
A conceptual application of the facility indicates that the entertainment center will be approximately 38,000 square feet on approximately 12 acres.
In December, the City of Timnas approved the creation of two metro districts for real estate. This will allow developers to raise approximately $95 million for public infrastructure such as roads, water and sewerage improvements, curbs and gutters.
TopGolf has approximately 60 venues in the UK and US, including three other locations in Colorado, one along I-25 in Thornton, about 45 minutes south of Timnath, and one just off I- Includes one location in Centennial by Soba. Route 25, about 90 minutes south of town. We also have a store in Colorado Springs.
The nearby intersection of Interstate 25 and Harmony is now home to Costco, Walmart, and many small eateries and businesses on the Timnas side of Interstate 25. The Fort Collins side is currently undeveloped on the south side.
McDonald’s plans 24/7 stores
A new McDonald’s store with a 24/7 drive-thru window could come to the Riverbend subdivision east of Signal Tree Drive and south of Harmony Road.
The 4,218-square-foot store will be franchised, though the franchisee has not yet been identified, said Courtney Pedigo, construction manager at McDonald’s headquarters. Formal plans could be submitted later this year, but construction and opening are still at least a year away, she said.
According to pre-planning, a walkway is planned from the restaurant grounds to Harmony Road, but vehicles will have to go to the store via the Riverbend development. Vehicles cannot enter from Harmony Road.
McDonald’s plans to employ about 60 people, with about 13 employees working the largest shift.
According to plans, the drive-thru will be open 24/7 and the dining room will be open from 5am to 11pm.
McDonald’s will join Timnas’ fast food options including Taco Bell, Freddy’s Frozen Custard, Steak Burger, Subway and Chick-fil-A.
If both conceptual plans move forward as actual development applications, the Timnath Planning Board will make an approval decision.
