On April 24 and May 1, 2013 the Economic Advisory Commission reviewed the Business Assistance
Package being proposed for the Foothills Mall. After thorough consideration and discussion, the EAC
developed the following recommendation to the Fort Collins City Council.
Jim Clark moved and Channing Arndt seconded the following motion:
The Economic Advisory Commission (EAC) believes that the Foothills Mall
redevelopment is an important part of the Fort Collins City Plan and
economic vision. As such, the EAC supports the public finance assistance
package for the Foothills Redevelopment Project as described by City Staff.
As part of this recommendation, the EAC highly recommends good faith efforts
by the City in order to understand the full revenue and cost implications
for, and to collaborate with, other taxing entities based on forthcoming
rigorous analysis of the forecasted and eventually actual impacts of
redevelopment.
