Kari Van Meter, Senior Planner from Planning Dept.,
presented a report on the National Heritage Corridor
and the Federal significance. Fort Collins' heritage
is based on the history of water management and
irrigation of desert land to agricultural land.
Legislation is pending on looking at sites/structures/
and people as it relates to the Poudre River.
417 Nest Magnolia Street • Fort Collins, CO 80521-2W • (303) 221-073;
Possible structures could be:
Water Works
Straus Cabin
Grand Water Ditch
Power Plant
The Heritage Corridor plan should lead to a Cultural
Environmental Plan for the Poudre River. The Planning
department is looking for diverse support for such a
plan. The value of such a plan lies in educational
resources. A hearing will be held in the early Fall.
Money received from the Federal Government could be
used for such diverse structures as trails, museums,
visitor centers . there is no concrete plan at the
present time. Kari will continue to feed information
to the Board through staff.
Discussion from the Board followed re: a letter of
support vs: a resolution. Karen Warren moved and Bill
Kneeland seconded to write a letter of support from the
Board. Passed unanimously. Craig Swing will draft a
letter in conjunction with Mr. Moroney.
VII. Cultural Policy Discussion
Jane Folsom reported on Funds available from the State
Council on Arts and Humanities for a Cultural Planning
grant. There is $15,000 to be divided between Fort
Collins and Pueblo. The State will decide how money will
be applied. Initial plans would be to split the money
spending $7500 to acquire a consultant for both communities
and the other $7500 would be split between communities to
hire administrator/distributor and collector of information.
Further information is needed from the State before we know
how to proceed.
The Cultural Policy is the responsibility of the Cultural
Resources Board as it defines Cities role in the Arts.
The Cultural Plan would involve the entire community ...
Arts organizations, Civic Groups, Business Groups,
Educational institutions, and others.
Discussion followed about the policy and the Board was
asked to think about the following for the next Board
meeting.
Who are we today?
What is environment today?
Should we expand?
Take more of a leadership role in community?
How do we define culture?
Karen Warren, Kathryn Stubler, Alison White, Jane Folsom
will do research for next CRB meeting.

this week and Artsoft, the software firm will begin training
July 30th. Our goal is to print new Showstopper and Dance
Series tickets for the 90-91 season with the new system.
The rigging system renovation was also approved by City
Council and the bidding process has been initiated with pur-
chasing department.
Summer Concert Series has again been successful this summer.
One of the best attended concerts was the children's concert
"Lois Lafond" and we are exploring expanding the series to
have a Children's Summer Concert Series on a weekday, in
addition to the adult series on Fridays.
Wednesday, July 18th new CRB Board members and new Lincoln
Center Board members met with Mr. Siever for an overview of
Cultural Services and Facilities and Lincoln Center. New CRB
Board Members will meet with Mr. Moroney at a later date for
an overview of the Museum.
Due to a scheduled date cancellation in Denver (Paramount
Theatre) the production of Romeo and Juliet has been re -scheduled
which in turn necessitated a date change for Greater Tuna.
New dates are:
Romeo and Juliet March 28-29
Greater Tuna April 24-25

Eric Corbett, Cindy Ryk, Jon Whatley, Evan Hiatt, Laura Carter
