MEMORANDUM
DATE: July 12, 2012
TO: Mayor and Councilmembers
FROM: Economic Advisory Commission
THROUGH: Josh Birks, Economic Health Director
Darin Atteberry, City Manager
RE: PDOD Recommendation
In June, Megan Bolin provided a brief update regarding PDOD. Since the last discussion
with EAC in May, the pilot recommendation had changed to include only the original
boundaries plus consideration to remove up to seven special and/or historic districts within
the current boundary. After thorough discussion, the EAC commented that boundary
decisions should be made after the pilot is complete when there is ample data/history to
support the final decisions at that time. After thorough consideration and discussion, the
EAC developed the following recommendation to the Fort Collins City Council.
Michael Kulisheck moved, and Stu MacMillan seconded:
The Economic Advisory Commission recommends that City Council adopt the Planned
Development Overlay District Pilot using the boundaries as originally proposed. Given the
existing standards and processes within Article 3 of the Land Use Code, the Commission
believes PDOD is a tool that supports the City’s Economic Health Policy 4.2 in City Plan,
and also the City’s goal of encouraging quality infill and redevelopment.
