7. NEW BUSINESS
a. Overview of Related City Plans and Council Priorities (Lauren Nagle)
Nagle stated the following will be discussed: Strategic Plan, Our Climate Future,
Transportation Master Plan, Parks and Recreation Master Plan, Strategic Trails
Plan, Council priorities, and how the Active Modes Plan fits in with those items.
Nagle outlined the alignment of the Strategic Plan and Active Modes Plan,
specifically citing the Transportation and Mobility strategic objective which
includes language related to the Council priority of advancing the 15-minute city
by accelerating the shift to active modes.
Nagle discussed the Budgeting for Outcomes (BFO) process, which is a system
driven by goals and performance to relate budgeting to planning and outputs
results with the purpose of better aligning the services delivered by the City with
the things that are most important to the community. Nagle noted the City Plan is
a comprehensive plan that guides how the community will grow and travel in the
next ten to twenty years and it describes the community’s vision and core values,
and provides policy guidance and implementation actions to achieve both.
Vice Chair Krause asked if the Strategic Plan is ever amended. Nagle replied it
is updated every budget cycle. Nagle also commented on the data dashboard
that is available for reference.
Vice Chair Krause stated he would like to see the Active Modes Plan referenced,
including elevating the mode share goal.
Han suggested the language should read something to the effect of ‘as various
active modes increase in Fort Collins, we strive to move toward Vision Zero and a
15-minute city.’ He asked at what level actual actions are considered to be
implemented that would lead down the road to a 15-minute city or Vision Zero.
Nagle replied there is a Vision Zero Plan that outlines specific, measurable steps
and that will be included in a follow-up email. Nagle suggested the Board may
want a separate presentation on that Plan.
ACTIVE MODES ADVISORY BOARD
TYPE OF MEETING – REGULAR
6/17/2024 – MINUTES Page 3
Cortney Geary, Active Modes Manager, noted the 15-minute city analysis is not
an adopted plan, but it includes strategies recommended for the city to achieve
15-minute city status.
Chair Henderson asked if there is a formal process by which the Board could
make a recommendation for a change to a Plan. Nagle replied the Board could
provide feedback via a memo and will provide additional information moving
forward.
Nagle discussed the relationship between Our Climate Future and the Active
Modes Plan, particularly the greenhouse gas emissions reduction goal of 80%
below the 2005 baseline level and the ways in which the shift to active modes
can help with that goal. Our Climate Future’s goals of having convenient
transportation choices and to live, work, and play nearby are in alignment with the
Active Modes Plan.
Han commented on utilizing transit on a trip to France and noted transit,
particularly when free of charge, is a very good way to get around.
Hansen commented on utilizing New Orleans transit and on the well-designed
app the city has for visitors.
Vrouwenvelder commented on Transfort’s real time updates that are available
through text and on the Google Map feature for transit. Additionally,
Vrouwenvelder commented that apps are expensive and transit service should be
funded prior to technology.
Nagle discussed the Transportation Master Plan, which came out in 2019, and
the Parks and Recreation Master Plan, which includes trails and active
transportation goals.
Vice Chair Krause discussed the last two working group meetings on the
Strategic Trails Plan and noted one of the goals is getting toward more of a
transportation focus rather than recreation focus for trails.
Nagle asked if there is a timeline for the working group and the Strategic Trails
Plan as a whole. Vice Chair Krause noted September 26th is the NoCo Trails
Summitt; however, he was unsure of the exact end date for the working group
and Plan effort.
Nagle noted DK Kemp will be discussing the Plan at next month’s meeting.
Nagle outlined the Council priority that specifically relates to active modes:
advance the 15-minute city by accelerating the shift to active modes, which
includes implementing the Active Modes Plan and Vision Zero Plan with an
emphasis on Safe Routes to School.
Nagle provided information on the Active Modes Plan.
ACTIVE MODES ADVISORY BOARD
TYPE OF MEETING – REGULAR
6/17/2024 – MINUTES Page 4
Geary noted the 50% active modes share of all trips by 2032 goal was an action
of the Bicycle Advisory Committee and the original goal was 20% of commuting
trips.
Vice Chair Krause noted the Vision Zero goals and Active Modes goals are the
same and he would like to see the Board consider how to recommend to Council
that that should be very visible in the Strategic Plan or City Plan.
Chair Henderson suggested a possible agenda item might be to accumulate the
plans and have members consider what they may be interested in making
recommendations on.
Steele commented on the recent Boards and Commissions Super Issues meeting
and the focus, particularly of the Planning and Zoning Commissioners, on
property values and benefits for businesses.
Phillips asked if there is information available on tracking Vision Zero and other
goals. Geary replied one of the Vision Zero recommendations was to create a
dashboard of crash data; however, it is not yet publicly available. Additionally,
the Transportation Capital Improvement Program will take the Transportation
Capital Project Prioritization Study, Active Modes Plan, and Strategic Trails Plan
recommendations and put them together to prioritize capital projects for the next
ten years, and a dashboard is also planned for that effort.
Chair Henderson asked if there is still an opportunity to help decide what projects
might be part of the dashboard. Geary replied the only plan that is still in
development is the Strategic Trails Plan, which is where the most opportunity
exists to inform its contents. Additionally, Geary noted the Board could always
provide input on projects it sees as priorities.
Vice Chair Krause suggested additional survey methods or other considerations
for the Shift Your Ride program may need to be utilized going forward given the
heightened importance on mode shift. Geary stated the most concrete way to do
that would be through the budget, specifically through the 2050 tax for climate
initiatives.
Vice Chair Krause questioned whether there are alternatives to the travel diary
approach that could be considered. Geary replied other cities have used
commute mode share in the past, and Fort Collins also used it in the 2014 Bike
Plan, because data comes annually from the American Community Survey
census.
Vice Chair Krause stated that data would be important for the dashboard as a
feeder goal toward the total trip number. Geary replied other potential sources
include Safe Routes to School travel tallies and the bicycle and pedestrian count
program which could provide data about changes on specific corridors.

b. Proposed Approach for Interacting with the Transportation Board (Lauren
Nagle)
Nagle stated the Transportation Board discussed having members review the
minutes from the Active Modes Advisory Board meetings and discussing items of
particular interest at their meetings. Additionally, the Transportation Board plans
to send an invitation to the Active Modes Advisory Board for a liaison to attend its
meetings and hopes to rely on staff to orchestrate having the needs being
covered for both Boards.
Ed Peyronnin, Transportation Board Member, stated he was a previous Bicycle
Advisory Committee member and is an avid cyclist. He offered a formal invitation
to a member of the AMAB to attend Transportation Board meetings as a non-
voting member. He discussed areas of overlap between the boards and
commented on the importance of the boards working together.
Nagle noted the liaison role could shift between members of the AMAB.
Han expressed interest in attending the next Transportation Board meeting and
other members concurred they could rotate the role.
Nagle asked the Board if members would prefer the Transportation Board
representative to remain as member of the public or be present to contribute to
the conversation. Members concurred they would prefer the Transportation
Board representative to contribute to the conversations as a non-voting member.
Hanson made a motion, seconded by Jacobson, to extend an invitation to
the Transportation Board to send a representative to the AMAB meetings as
a non-voting member. The motion was adopted unanimously.
Vrouwenvelder made a motion, seconded by Krause, to create a roster of
AMAB members to join the Transportation Board on a rotating basis
monthly to participate as a non-voting member. The motion was adopted
unanimously.
c. AMAB Work Plan Working Session: Goals and Priorities Discussion
(Lauren Nagle)
Nagle noted the Board discussed having a Google Drive document to make
changes to the Work Plan at its previous meeting; however, the City Attorney’s
Office recommended each member compile their suggested changes and send
them to Nagle instead for review at a subsequent meeting. Nagle provided the
changes that have been made by various members since the previous meeting
and discussed how the next round of edits will be made.

Active Modes Advisory Board
2024 Work Plan
Purpose
The purpose of the Active Modes Advisory Board (AMAB) is to address issues
related to active modes of transportation and to seek guidance from active
modes-focused stakeholders to achieve the City’s climate, mode shift, safety,
and equity goals. Active modes of transportation include walking, biking, micro-
mobility (such as scooters and skateboards), and wheelchair use. Active modes
may also include human-powered and small electric devices.
Objectives
1. Work Plan Development: Update and finalize 2024 draft work plan as
appropriate.
A. Conduct annual review of AMAB Work Plan, Objectives, and
operational procedures.
2. Boards and Commissions Coordination: Define and adapt ongoing
relationship with the Transportation Board to jointly create a strategy for
a balanced Transportation network.
A. Opportunities could include an annual joint meeting between
the AMAB and T-Board, liaison-like roles, and/or work plan
integration.
B. Reach out to and participate with other City boards and
commissions to solicit input and provide information on issues
related to active modes of transportation as appropriate.
3. City of Fort Collins Support: Advise City Council and Staff in the following
areas by reviewing progress and providing feedback as needed. Encourage
the inclusion of Active Modes in the following example areas:
A. City plans and studies such as the Active Modes Plan, Pedestrian
Needs Assessment, 15-minute City Analysis, Vision Zero Action
Plan, Strategic Trails Plan, Our Climate Future, Shift Your Ride
Travel Options Plan, Transportation Master Plan, and Master Street
Plan as well as the broader City Plan. Leverage these plans in
advising City Council and Staff on Active Modes.
B. City active modes programs such as Safe Routes to School, adult
education and outreach, shared micromobility, asphalt art,
neighborhood traffic mitigation, traffic safety education and
enforcement, and the Shift Your Ride Travel Options program.
C. City departments and programs such as (but not limited to) capital
projects, street improvements, trails, traffic signal projects, parking
facilities, parks, and recreation programs.
D. Actively provide recommendations during the City’s Budgeting for
Outcomes (BFO) process.
4. Community Coordination: Consult with other organizations that have a
role in supporting active modes of transportation in Fort Collins such as
the Colorado Department of Transportation, North Front Range
Metropolitan Planning Organization, Larimer County, Colorado State
University, Poudre School District, Downtown Development Authority,
and local organizations engaged with active-modes in various ways, such
as Bike Fort Collins, Fort Collins Bike Co-Op, Overland Mountain Bike
Association, Send Town Bike Club, and others as appropriate.
A. The AMAB should look for partnership opportunities and may
consider ex-officio membership of other organizations in concert
with City of Fort Collins policies and procedures.
B. The AMAB should become a resource to hear citizens’ concerns
regarding alternative transportation and Active Modes of
transportation. As a voice for the community, these needs, issues,
and concerns should be communicated to City of Fort Collins staff
and Council by the AMAB.
5. Policy Opportunities: Define AMAB priorities and action items as
needed or on an annual basis. For example:
A. Review plans, provide support, and advocate for progress toward
achieving the 50% mode share goal as part of the Active Modes Plan.
B. Eliminate active modes fatalities and serious injuries by 2032, in
support of Vision Zero.
C. Promote equitable access to active modes of transportation, with an
emphasis on expanding access for the most marginalized
community members, people with disabilities, youth, and older adults.
D. Support recreational facilities and infrastructure for active modes to
help community members, particularly youth and historically
excluded groups, develop skills and confidence, and build a culture
of support for active modes.
E. Consider innovative ways to draw visitor and community member
attention to the City's focus on and prioritization of active modes
that help define community expectations in support of safety and
access for everyone.
6. Experiential Opportunities: Facilitate tours and site visits for the AMAB
to experience the active modes system as a group and on an individual
level.
A. AMAB members should be a conduit for community feedback
through data-informed recommendations and experiential learning.
