Staff recommends approval of the Consent Calendar. Anyone may request an item on this calendar to be "pulled" off the Consent Calendar and considered separately. Agenda items pulled from the Consent Calendar will be considered separately under Pulled Consent Items. Items remaining on the Consent Calendar will be approved by City Council with one vote. The Consent Calendar consists of: ● Ordinances on First Reading that are routine; ● Ordinances on Second Reading that are routine; ● Those of no perceived controversy; ● Routine administrative actions. If the presiding officer determines that the number of items pulled from the Consent Calendar by citizens is substantial and may impair the Council’s ability to complete the planned agenda, the presiding officer may declare that the following process will be used to simplify consideration of the Citizen-Pulled Consent Items:   (1) All citizen-pulled items (to be listed by number) will be considered as a group under the heading “Consideration of Citizen-Pulled Consent Items.” (2) At that time, each citizen wishing to speak will be given a single chance to speak about any and all of the items that have been moved to that part of the agenda. (3) After the citizen comments, any Councilmember may specify items from the list of Citizen-Pulled Consent Items for Council to discuss and vote on individually. Excluding those specified items, Council will then adopt all “Citizen-Pulled Consent Items” as a block, by a single motion, second and vote. (4) Any Citizen-Pulled Consent Items that a Councilmember has asked to be considered individually will then be considered using the regular process for considering discussion items. 1. Consideration and Approval of the Minutes of the November 4, 2020 and November 17, 2020 Regular Meetings and the November 10, 2020 Adjourned Meeting. The purpose of this item is to approve the minutes of the November 4, 2020 and November 17, 2020 Regular Meetings and the November 10, 2020 Adjourned Meeting. 2. Second Reading of Ordinance No. 145, 2020 Amending the Zoning Map of the City of Fort Collins by Changing the Zoning Classification for that Certain Property Known as the Timberline Church Rezoning. Adequate notice for second reading of this Ordinance was not published in the Coloradoan. Therefore, Council voted on December 1 to postpone second reading to this December 15, 2020, Council Meeting. This item is a quasi-judicial matter and if it is considered on the discussion agenda, it will be considered in accordance with Section 1(f) of the Council’s Rules of Meeting Procedures adopted in Resolution 2019-064. This Ordinance, unanimously adopted First Reading on November 24, 2020, amends the City’s Zoning Map to change the zoning designation for the Timberline Church Campus from Low Density Mixed- Use Neighborhood (LMN) to Medium Density Mixed-Use Neighborhood (MMN). The area proposed to be rezoned is approximately 32.79 acres. The applicant proposes the rezoning to support future infill housing on the site and enable higher density housing than would be allowed with the current LMN zoning. Additional commercial and institutional uses may also be proposed. The church has been in discussions with CSU regarding a potential land swap to construct an attainable housing project. CSU would donate their 4.76 acres on Timberline Road, and the church will swap 8-10 acres for the CSU property. City of Fort Collins Page 5 The rezoning request is subject to the criteria in Section 2.9.4 of the Land Use Code. The rezoning may be approved, approved with conditions, or denied by Council after receiving a recommendation from the Planning and Zoning Board, which voted 6-0 to recommend approval of the request with condition that the residential density be limited to 20 units per gross acre and that an Overall Development Plan (ODP) precede or accompany the Project Development Plan (PDP). The purpose of the condition of approval is to provide a density limit to help achieve a compatible transition with the surrounding neighborhood because the MMN zone district does not have a maximum density requirement. Additionally, the ODP would help identify the general design parameters for the property - including the general location and nature of proposed uses, transportation circulation, open space, buffers, and drainage features. A traffic study is also required. The ODP is required to be reviewed by the Planning and Zoning Board and would require at least one neighborhood meeting. 3. Second Reading of Ordinance No. 146, 2020 Appropriating Prior Year Reserves in the Self Insurance Fund for Increased Premiums for Property Loss Insurance. This Ordinance, unanimously adopted on First Reading on December 1, 2020, appropriates funds to compensate for increased premiums for the City’s property loss insurance that were paid by the Self Insurance Fund for the 2020/2021 period. The City’s Self Insurance Fund is currently over budget through October 2020 and is expected to remain over budget through year-end. The primary driver of this increase is the higher insurance premiums that have been realized in 2020. These increases are due to two factors: an industry wide adjustment in coverage due to increased risk exposure in the state of Colorado, and more hail storm damage realized at the City in prior years, most notably in 2018. 4. Second Reading of Ordinance No. 147, 2020 Making Supplemental Appropriations for Roof Repairs on City Buildings Due to 2018 Hail Damage. This Ordinance, unanimously adopted on First Reading on December 1, 2020, appropriates additional insurance proceeds for further scope of work associated with completing roof repair work for a 2018 hail damage claim. These additional proceeds are for recovered depreciation, abatement of asbestos materials, code upgrades and project management. 5. Second Reading of Ordinance No. 148, 2020, Making Supplemental Appropriations of Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act Funding for Transfort Operating Assistance, Preventative Maintenance, and Contracted Service Costs Related to Preparation for and Response to the COVID-19 Pandemic. This Ordinance, unanimously adopted on First Reading on December 1, 2020, appropriates grant revenue Transfort has been allocated by the Federal Transit Agency (FTA). Transfort was awarded $10,368,067 and will net the amount of $8,719,626 in Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security (CARES) Act through FTA apportionments to urbanized areas. CARES funding is provided at a 100- percent federal share, with no local match required, and is available to support capital, operating, and other expenses to prepare for and respond to COVID-19. Transfort confirmed this money would be available earlier in the year. At that time, Transfort planned to use the CARES funds to pay for what had previously been allocated from the General Fund for operating assistance, preventative maintenance, and contracted service costs. 6. Second Reading of Ordinance No. 153, 2020, Adopting the 2021 Larimer County Regional Transportation Capital Expansion Fee Schedule.

The lease terms included a (50) year lease for a large-scale aviation development project. The City of Fort Collins Page 9 project has progressed since the execution of the original lease, and Discovery Air has obtained the necessary development approvals to continue pursuit of their development.
