The Board made two motions:
Ms. Gilligan made a motion that the Board wants to ensure there is connectivity between the
proposed Downtown Creative District and the rest of the community by adding an “At Large”
member to the Steering Committee and to request the Steering Committee include a strategic
goal specifically addressing “outside of district” connectivity and impact.
Ms. Cox seconded the motion.
The Motion passed unanimously.
Ms. Dennis made a motion that the Board recommends City Council support the Cultural
Services application for a proposed Downtown Fort Collins Creative District to become a
candidate for the Creative District program.
Mr. Solomon seconded the motion.
The Motion passed unanimously.
