B) ITEMS FOR DISCUSSION
1. November Coordinated Elections and Ranked Choice Voting. (staff: Anissa Hollingshead; 10 minute
presentation; 50 minute discussion)
The purpose of this work session is to consider the content and timing of potential ballot questions the

Council's Election Code Committee has been meeting in the current term since September of 2021 to
consider potential shifts to be made to the municipal election process. Two broad areas of adjustment
under consideration require voter approval via ballot questions to proceed: implementing ranked-
choice voting for municipal candidates and shifting the date of regular municipal elections from April
to November to be held as coordinated elections with Larimer County.
2. Aquatics Update (staff: LeAnn Williams, Seve Ghose; 10 minute presentation; 20 minute discussion)
The purpose of this item is to provide the Fall 2021 requested aquatics update, initiated from discussion
on potential spending at Mulberry Pool.
