Tynan, church propose new construction

FORT COLLINS – The Vineyard Church of the Rockies is selling eight acres of its 22-acre property in the 5000 block of S. College Ave. in Fort Collins to auto dealers Sean and Ed Tynan.

If the land deal goes through, the Tynans would build a 24,000-square-foot Nissan dealership. It also would remodel its Kia dealership in a 17,000-square-foot space at 5811 S. College Ave., property the Tynans own that is next to the church’s property, according to a proposal submitted to the city of Fort Collins’ planning department.

The same proposal states that the Vineyard Church wants to build a 40,000-square-foot building on eight of the remaining 16 acres of vacant land, where it can serve its congregation that currently meets at 1201 Riverside Drive, said Hans Breuer, executive pastor of the Vineyard Church of the Rockies.

In Colorado, 1 in 3 women, 1 in 3 men and 1 in 2 transgender individuals will experience an attempted or completed sexual assault in their lifetime. During April, we recognize Sexual Assault Awareness Month with the hopes of increasing conversations about this very important issue.

The proposal includes a realignment of Crestridge Street.

Breuer said the Vineyard Church broke ground Monday on an 8,200-square-foot addition to its church in Windsor.

Sean Tynan could not be reached Monday for comment.
