SUBJECT
First Reading of Ordinance No. 007, 2021, Authorizing the Conveyance to the Colorado Department of
Transportation of Various Property Interests on City-Owned Property at Running Deer Natural Area, Archery
Range, and Arapaho Bend Natural Area to be Used as Right-of-Way for Interstate 25 and Related Facilities.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The purpose of this item is to seek Council's approval of the Colorado Department of Transportation’s
requested purchase of one right-of-way parcel on Arapaho Bend Natural Area, two right-of-way parcels and
four temporary easements on Running Deer Natural Area and the Archery Range for the purpose of widening
Interstate 25 and relocating the Port of Entry.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends adoption of this Ordinance on First Reading.
BACKGROUND / DISCUSSION
The Colorado Department of Transportation (CDOT) is currently widening I-25 from 4 lanes to 6 lanes and
relocating the Port of Entry (POE) further south to improve traffic capacity on Interstate 25 (I-25) and the safety
of truckers and motorists. In 2018, CDOT acquired ROW from the City at Arapaho Bend Natural Area (ABNA).
At that time, the plans for I-25 further north across Running Deer Natural Area (RDNA) were still being
designed and plans for the bridge over the Poudre River at ABNA were not finalized.
CDOT is now finalizing the plans for I-25 and has recognized the need to acquire an additional parcel of ROW
at ABNA on the east side of I-25 to construct the bridge over the Poudre River. This area is currently within a
temporary easement CDOT had acquired in 2018. The proposal is to convert this temporary easement (TE) to
a permanent ROW.
CDOT envisions relocating the POE to be adjacent to RDNA and part of the Archery Range. Thus, CDOT is
requesting ROW and TEs across RDNA, including one that covers a small portion of the Archery Range, which
is owned by the City’s Parks Department.
Finally, CDOT is asking the City to give up any rights of access it may have directly from its properties to the I -
25 right-of-way within this project area, to limit access on and off the highway to interchanges only. City staff is
not aware of any such rights, so has no concerns about relinquishing any claim to them.
CDOT needs to start utility and irrigation ditch relocations in this area immediately to keep the project on
schedule and asked NAD to expedite this request without waiting for appraisals or finalized plans. Council is
being asked to approve the conveyances without knowing the compensation values or the exact final areas of

the ROW or TE requests, although an approximate dollar value can be determined based on a similar
conveyance to CDOT in 2019.
Environmental Impacts
The Poudre River bridge will span across the entire river channel and provide ample width for a wildlife corridor
and for the Poudre Trail to pass under the bridge. The construction will require the removal of trees and shrubs
along the river and it will temporarily disturb the river channel. In 2018, CDOT paid NAD $68,650 to mitigate
the loss of trees since there was no room within the ROW for additional tree plantings.
The widening of I-25, the relocation of the POE, and the relocation of the frontage road across RDNA will take
approximately 4 acres of the agriculture field NAD currently leases to a third party for hay farming and remove
an approximately 0.5-acre grass area and a small cluster of shrubs from in front of the Archery Range. The
project will effectively reduce the buffer from I-25 to the Poudre River by over 100’. Staff will determine if the
impacts to vegetation warrant a mitigation payment in addition to the compensation for the land.
Permanent ROW Needed:
ABNA - 18,321 SF (0.421 acres), more or less, for Poudre bridge construction
RDNA - 88,611 SF (2.034 acres), more or less, for widening I-25 and POE relocation
RDNA - 109,406 SF (2.512 acres), more or less, for relocating frontage road
Temporary Easements Needed:
RDNA - 308 SF (0.007 acres) more or less, for construction access on the north end of RDNA
RDNA/Archery Range - 4,969 SF (0.114 acres) more or less, for realigning entrance to Archery Range
RDNA - 1,600 SF (0.037 acres), more or less, for realigning access road to Arapaho Bend
RDNA - 599 SF (0.014 acres), more or less, for drainage inlet construction
CITY FINANCIAL IMPACTS
CDOT is currently having the fair market values for the ROW’s, TE’s and loss of trees and shrubs appraised by
a certified appraiser. Real Estate Services and NAD staff will review the appraisals and ensure that the City
receives appropriate compensation. CDOT will also pay the standard easement application fee and pay NAD’s
standard restoration fees if applicable. If the appraisals are available prior to Second Reading of the
Ordinance, staff will include the actual values in the Ordinance for Second Reading. If not, staff will ask
Council to postpone Second Reading until the values can be filled in.
In the meantime, an approximate value of these property interests can be calculated based on the amount
CDOT paid the City in January 2019 for another piece of ROW and some TEs on Arapaho Bend Natural Area,
also as part of the I-25 expansion project. In that transaction CDOT paid $15,000 per acre for permanent
ROW and $3,000 per acre for TEs. Assuming that is a reasonable approximation of current fair market value
of the City properties impacted by this phase of the I-25 project, and not adjusting for inflation or other factors,
fair compensation for the property rights described above would be approximately $75,000, not including
compensation for trees and shrubs, application fee, and restoration fees.
BOARD / COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION
The Land Conservation and Stewardship Board recommends that Council approve an ordinance authorizing
the conveyance to the Colorado Department of Transportation of various property interests on City-owned
property at Arapaho Bend Natural Area and Running Deer Natural Area. (Attachment 2)

CDOT - ROW Requestat Arapaho Bend Natural Area
Land Conservation & Stewardship Board
December 9, 2020
Regular Meeting – Excerpt
CDOT Right of Way/I-25 land sale
Mark Sears, NAD Manager presented CDOT’s request for additional Right of Way on
Arapaho Bend Natural Area (ABNA) and Running Deer Natural Area (RDNA). Mark
described, in detail, the ROW requests for both the natural areas. One parcel of
additional ROW is required at ABNA for the Poudre River Bridge and two parcels of
permanent ROW and four temporary easements are needed on Running Deer Natural
Area to widen I-25 and relocate the Port of Entry. CDOT has now finalized their plan
for widening I-25 north of ABNA and would like to quickly move forward to keep the
project on schedule. CDOT is requesting NAD expedite the request without waiting for
appraisals or finalized legal descriptions for the ROW and TE’s. The urgency for the
approval is that CDOT needs to start utility and irrigation ditch relocations to keep the
project moving as scheduled. Mark and Dave will ensure that the final values and fees
are fair to NAD.
Kelly mentioned the money NAD received for tree mitigation the first time. He wants to
make sure it stays in mitigation and not used for something like a parking lot. Zoe told
Kelly she would confirm that the funds have been designated appropriately. Kelly asked
about the current buffer between I-25 and the Poudre River, and how much that buffer
would be reduced. Mark answered that they buffer would be reduced by 100’. Kelly
expressed concerns about the unknown market value and appraisal fees and CDOT’s
need to “keep the project going” should not become NAD’s requirement to expedite the
approval prior to knowing the fees and values.
Mark will take the request to City Council in early January, but he feels the values may
not be known at that time.
Joe Piesman made a motion that City Council approve an ordinance, authorizing
the conveyance to the Colorado Department of Transportation of various
property interests on city-owned property at Arapaho Bend Natural Area and
Running Deer Natural Area.
Alycia Crall seconded the motion. The motion was approved 6-2. David
Tweedale and Kelly Ohlson were opposed.
