Monthly Meeting
March 8, 1972
Prior to the meeting of the Commission, reports were heard from
Charlie Cain, Director of Finance, and Roy Bingman, City Engineer,
concerning their findings related to assessment and tax deferment for
senior citizens.
In the area of assessments the consensus appeared to be that
side walk repairs and tree removal charges would be of the greatest
importance to senior citizens in Fort Collins. Mr. Bingman indicated
that the City has always been receptive to a payment plan in these
areas and that the Commission should approach the City Council for
clarification and a resolution to this effect.
Information necessary to form any conclusions concerning property
tax relief appears unavailable. The Commission elected to distribute
questionaires to senior citizen groups to collect some initial data.
Mr. Cain indicated that his office and that of the City Clerk would
assist in printing the forms.
Following the discussion, the Commission met briefly to welcome
Mr. Charles Shepardson as a new member. The group then elected him
as secretary to succeed Doris Atkinson.
The next meeting of the Commission will be held on April 12, 1972,
at 3:30 p.m. in the Council Chambers.
Respectfully submitted,
Nancy Stegner
Chairman
