The Fort Collins Public Library has been awarded a United States Department of Education grant in the amount of $25,000 to continue the adult literacy activities at the library. In addition the library has received $4,360 in Library Services and Construction Act funds for the program. A further $4,950 in Library Services and Construction Act funds has I been granted to support literacy tutor training and purchase of training materials to enhance literacy activities in the community. This ordinance, which was unanimously adopted on First Reading on September 15, appropriates $34,310 in unanticipated revenue in the General Fund for the continuation of the Library Adult Literacy Program through December of 1988. In November of 1985, Council established the Greenbriar Special Improvement District No. 87. This district's purpose was to construct street, waterline, sanitary sewer, and storm drainage improvements in the replat of the Greenbriar Subdivision. On September 15, Council adopted Resolution 87-128 accepting the improvements and ordering notice of assessment in the Greenbriar Special Improvement District No. 87. During construction of Willox Lane in this district, unsound soil conditions were encountered. The soil conditions encountered were a bog area of supersaturated, organic, clay material that was unsuitable for street construction. The additional cost to the Street Oversizing Fund is for the oversized portion of Willox Lane, and includes removal of unsuitable material, importing new structural fill material -179- October 6, 1987 [3 10 (pit -run gravel), and compacting this material to City standard specifications. This Ordinance, which was unanimously adopted on First Reading on September 15, transfers the funds for the additional cost. In addition to the traditional family, the Code defines a "family" as not more than three unrelated persons living together. Under this ordinance, which was unanimously adopted on First Reading on September 15, the Planning and Zoning Board would have the power to increase the number of unrelated persons residing in an individual dwelling unit when that unit is part of a multiple -family dwelling approved pursuant to the Land Development Guidance System.

Resolution 87-138 Amending the City of Fort Collins Police Officers' Pension Plan. This Resolution adopts an amendment to the City of Fort Collins Police Officers' Pension Plan (as restated January 1, 1986) which adds two sections to the Plan. This change is required by the favorable determination letter received from the Internal Revenue Service. The letter states that, subject to the City's adoption of the proposed amendments, the terms of the Plan conform to the requirements of Section 401(a) of the Internal Revenue Code. Giuliano and Father, developer of Overland Farm Phase II, has high groundwater on their property adjacent to the north edge of Overland Trail Park. The same condition exists on the park site and drain lines have been installed on park property to reduce groundwater levels. In exchange for this easement, the City has been granted a 12' permanent irrigation easement to the Parks and Recreation Department through lots 16 and 17 of Overland Trail Farm. This irrigation easement is recorded on the third filing of Overland Farm Phase II. A change in developers and the uncertainty of the exact location of the requested drain line prevented the granting of this easement until now. The Parks and Recreation Department inquired in March, 1987, about coordinating this drain line installation with beginning construction on the park site. The developer at that time was not interested since the land was for sale. The present developer is now interested in beginning construction of the drain line. The ~proposed Easement -185- October 6, 1987 Agreement provides that the developer will repair the area after construction so that it can again be used for park purposes. 22.

This Resolution sets forth findings and determination that the area is eligible for annexation pursuant to Colorado state law. Ordinance No. 137 and Ordinance No. 138, unanimously adopted on First Reading on September 15, annex and zone approximately 37.58 acres, located south of Douglas Road, north of Richards Lake Road and west of County Road 11, which is presently an enclave of county area completely surrounded by incorporated area of the City of Fort Collins. The requested zoning is the R-L-P, Low Density Planned Residential, Zoning District. After discussion on September 15, Council recommended tabling this annexation and zoning on second reading until Mr. Jewett requests annexation or the property changes ownership (a period not to exceed one year). APPLICANT: City of Fort Collins Background OWNER: Norman W. Jewett 1200 E. Douglas Road Fort Collins, CO 80524 The area is a county enclave. The following annexations to the City of Fort Collins created the enclave: N: Country Club North 2nd Annexation, January 1984 E: Country Club North 2nd Annexation, January 1984 S: Country Club North 2nd Annexation, January 1984 W: Country Club North 2nd Annexation, January 1984 The area has thus been eligible for involuntary annexation into the city since January 1987. On June 30, 1987, staff sent a letter to the property owner informing him of the pending annexation, potential zoning district designation, and meeting date of review by the Planning and Zoning Board. Staff received no contact from the property owner until the evening of the Planning and Zoning Board meeting on July 27, when Mr. Jewett asked several question about City police protection and security for farm animals he keeps on the property. aI102 October 6, 1987 1 Zoning The requested zone for this annexation is the R-L-P, Low Density Planned Residential, Zoning District. The R-L-P district designation is for areas which are expected to develop predominantly with residential land uses. Single-family residential subdivisions are "uses -by -right" in the R-L-P zone. Any higher density residential uses and/or any non-residential land uses can be proposed for development in the R-L-P zone as planned unit developments and be evaluated according to the criteria of the LAND DEVELOPMENT GUIDANCE SYSTEM. The surrounding property is also zoned R-L-P. Findings The annexation of this area as a county enclave is consistent with the policies and agreements between Larimer County and the City of Fort Collins contained in the INTERGOVERNMENTAL AGREEMENT FOR THE FORT COLLINS URBAN GROWTH AREA. 2. The area meets all criteria included in State law to qualify for a county enclave eligible for involuntary annexation by the City of Fort Collins. The R-L-P zoning district is in conformance with the City's Comprehensive Plan.

Nays: None. THE MOTION CARRIED. Resolution 87-130 Creating the CHOICES 95 Capital,Improvement Advisory Committees, Adopted Following is staff's memorandum on this item: "This item was tabled by Council at the September 15 meeting to allow staff time to address a number of issues and concerns expressed during ' discussion. Specifically, Council was concerned about citizen involvement in the development of the services plan and the need to assure that the -191- October 6, 1987 ' CHOICES 95 committees would be made aware of the needs and priorities in the delivery of services which is being addressed by the staff in the service plan. Staff has recognized from the beginning that the development of the services plan would require citizen input and involvement. The key in this area will be the execution of a citizen survey which will address citizen satisfaction with services, perceived priorities for additional services, and willingness to pay issues. Staff has initiated the process of developing the survey and anticipates that the survey will be initiated the first week of November, allowing sufficient time to tabulate and analyze results for inclusion in the staff's recommendation to Council. In addition to the survey, staff anticipates having a number of community meetings to hear input and using the various existing boards and commissions for their perspective on service issues and needs. Staff still, believes that Council and staff should be the principal players in the development of the services plan. We recognize, however, that an interface between the two programs is critical to having a coordinated recommendation for Council at the conclusion of the process. Staff therefore believes that some changes in the time schedule and process are necessary. Specifically, staff is suggesting that the CHOICES 95 committees not begin their work until January of 1988. This will enable staff to complete the services plan and receive direction from Council. Council's priorities for service and service needs can then be communicated ' to the committees prior to their developing program. We believe this change will allow for the recommended capital coordination between the two processes. The resolution has been amended to indicate that the committees will take into account the service priorities of Council as expressed in the service plan. Attached for your information is a diagram which shows in graphic form the process and time schedule as proposed at this time. The amended resolution deletes the reference to specific membership categories for existing board members as discussed by Council on September 15." Councilmember Mabry made a motion, seconded by Councilmember Kirkpatrick, to adopt Resolution 87-130. Deputy City Manager Skip Noe gave a brief presentation on the item, highlighting the revisions made to the Resolution after tabling on September 15. He responded to questions from Council. Bruce Lockhart, 2500 East Harmony Road, expressed opposition to formation of the CHOICES 95 Committees and the proposed schedule. Councilmember Horak suggested the enacting clause be amended to strike the words "from names submitted by members'of the City. Council or". ' Councilmembers Mabry and Kirkpatrick accepted the amendment as a friendly amendment to their original motion. -192- October 6, 1987 The vote on Councilmember Mabry's motion to adopt Resolution 87-130 as ' amended was as follows: Yeas: Councilmembers Horak, Kirkpatrick, Mabry, Maxey, Stoner, and Winokur. Nays: None. THE MOTION CARRIED. Items Relating to Mobile Home Parks and Mobile Homes Following is staff's memorandum on this item: Financial Impact The fees for required inspections on all mobile home installations and permits for new mobile home parks occurring after adoption of the ordinance will cover the costs associated with providing those services. Mandatory, one-time inspections of existing mobile home rental units will not require fees because of the relatively small number anticipated and related expenses will be absorbed by the operating budget of the Building Inspection Program. Executive Summary A. Hearing and First Reading of Ordinance No. 158, 1987, Amending Chapter I 5 of the Code Pertaining to Nonowner-Occupied Housing. B. Hearing and First Reading of Ordinance No. 159, 1987, Repealing and Reenacting Chapter 18 of the Code Regarding Mobile Homes. Ordinance No. 158, 1987 deals with the issue of regulation of existing and subsequent mobile home rental units under the City's rental housing code via a simple change to the definition of "Nonowner-occupied housing". This document currently provides basic standards of habitability in all rental housing other than mobile homes for essentials including running hot and cold water, comfort heating, cooking facilities, sleeping quarters, lighting, ventilation, sanitation, exiting, and shelter. Ordinance No. 159, 1987 is a complete revision of Chapter 18, the original regulation passed in 1967 to regulate all mobile home parks but never fully implemented apparently due to the elaborate park licensing system it created under the "Public Works" department.. While quite comprehensive in establishing overall park design criteria for streets, utilities, and landscaped screening, it retroactively imposed those same rigid standards for the smaller, existing parks as well as applying them to new parks after its adoption. It contains little or nothing in the way of regulating the actual condition of the mobile homes themselves and has no inspection fee provisions with only token annual license fees. , The proposed revision is the result of a Council work session in 4 ate April of this year which directed staff to look into the conditions in mobile -193- October 6, 1987 ' home parks in general and to produce a fair, straightforward, and enforceable set of rules which promote and maintain a safe and healthy living environment for people who choose mobile home living rather than conventional housing alternatives. At the well attended public meeting in early July which was intended to be an informational session on the first draft of the revised ordinance, most of the audience, comprised largely of park owners/operators, residents, and mobile home suppliers, was strongly opposed to the document presented. The original draft contained a comprehensive "operating" license provision with significant fees to cover its administration. Many in attendance resented its intrusive aspect and felt all mobile home parks were being over -regulated as a group because of problems encountered with a small, poorly managed minority. Residents of the Mountain Avenue neighborhood adjacent to one of the smaller parks with a long history of problems, were equally vocal about the need for strong measures to protect their neighborhood and property values. Both sides saw the need for addressing health, safety, and maintenance issues in mobile home parks at the same time realizing that mobile homes offer an affordable and viable housing alternative for many in the Fort Collins area. Out of that meeting, a task group was formed from large and small park owners, mobile home suppliers, and a neighborhood resident to assist staff in formulating regulations and identifying underlying issues. ' Early in the discussions with the task group, verified from previous field research, it was apparent that most of the area parks were well run, decent communities in spite of the lack of regulatory imposition. The real problems stemmed from health and safety related conditions in a small number of mobile home rental units which are typically old, small, and in need of repairs. With that in mind staff set out to fashion legislation which would not severely impact the many, well managed parks and well maintained existing, owner -occupied mobile homes but provide reasonable standards for general park maintenance, incoming mobile homes, and habitability of mobile home rental units. The resulting revised ordinance is a comprehensive, concise document which accomplishes those goals without a cumbersome licensing system, using public intervention through responsive enforcement when necessary where health and safety matters are concerned. The track record of mobile home rental units indicates that they demonstrate a definite need for stricter regulation. The vast majority of the serious health and safety problems have been associated with these mobile homes. For economic and other reasons, owners of these units have not been providing regular upkeep, as evidenced by the dilapidated condition of many of these. The ordinance will require full inspection of all existing mobile home rentals and a certificate of inspection issued within 60 days of the effective date,of adoption. If necessary repairs are not completed within that'_time, those units will be posted as unfit for habitation with an additional'90-day time limit to remain in a park without abatement. I Although not all members of the task group are totally satisfied with the final product, there is general consensus that a workable compromise has -194- October 6, 1987 been achieved. Some park owners still feel that such regulations are discriminatory, selecting housing ' one alternative out of several as different with added regulations imposed on it. Park neighborhood residents want to see even more controls over mobile home rental units, such as requiring annual rather than one-time inspections of rental units, and will likely voice those concerns at the hearing. Such a periodic inspection program should be supported by fees and a certificate renewal licensing process even for a fairly small portion of the mobile home population, probably less than 100 units out of 1500, because of the need for maintaining an ongoing record -keeping system on each rental unit. Although some units may degrade over time, the rental housing code would be available for abatement of the serious offenders. Staff believes this ordinance to be a fair and enforceable solution for maintaining an important segment of the community's housing stock for many years to come." Councilmember Winokur made a motion, seconded by Councilmember Kirkpatrick, to adopt Ordinance No. 158, 1987 on First Reading. Building Permits and Inspections Administrator Felix Lee gave a history of this issue and a brief overview of the provisions of the ordinances relating to mobile homes. He noted revisions had been prepared for Ordinance No. 159, 1987. The vote on Councilmember Winokur's motion to adopt Ordinance No. 158, 1987 I on First Reading was as follows: Yeas: Councilmembers Horak, Kirkpatrick, Mabry, Maxey, Stoner, and Winokur. Nays: None. THE MOTION CARRIED. City Clerk Krajicek read the amendments to Ordinance No. 159, 1987 in full. Councilmember Winokur made a motion, seconded by Councilmember Horak, to adopt Ordinance No. 159, 1987 on First Reading as amended. Felix Lee responded to questions from Council about the input received during drafting of the ordinance and specific provisions of the ordinance. The following persons spoke on this item: Peggy Rolfes, 1535 West Mountain, gave a slide presentation showing several mobile home parks in Fort Collins and pointing out the kinds of problems that exist in some parks. She stated the City Park neighborhood supports regulation of mobile home parks in the community. She proposed an amendment to Section 18-8(a) to add a subsection (7) to read: "The mobile home is not less than six hundred (600) square feet in floor area." She also proposed that�Section 18-9 be amended to provide for annual or regular !inspections of ' mobile home parks. Ms. Rolfes requested Section 18-11(2) be -195- October 6, 1987 I amended to incorporate the provisions of Section 18-8(c) in its entirety. 2. Carol Podmore, 1205 West Mountain, President of the City Park Neighborhood Association, expressed support for the proposed ordinance including the amendments suggested by Ms. Rolfes. 3. Art Mitchell, 1609 Richards Place, spoke of the impact a poorly maintained mobile home park has on the surrounding neighborhood. 4. Charles Hoffman, Skyline Mobile Home Park owner, supported the ordinance but stated he did not feel it should be used to resolve the crime situation at 114 Bryan. 5. Nancy Gray, 110 Fishback, expressed support for the ordinance, but added she felt it was unfortunate that an ordinance regulating all mobile home parks has become necessary in order to deal with the situation at 114 Bryan. 6. Martha Doak, 1042 Strachan, representing Family Services of St. Luke's Episcopal Church, stated she felt the ordinance is necessary, but expressed concern about the renters who may be forced to vacate a mobile home that does not comply. ' 7. Steve Barbier, Executive Director of Neighbor -to -Neighbor, spoke in favor of the ordinance, but expressed concern about implementation of the provisions of the ordinance and the possibility that families may be displaced. 8. Marc Teets, 422 East Lake, spoke of the problems that occur with rental property, and offered suggestions to resolve some of the problems. 9. Johnny Brown, 801 East Pitkin, party -in -interest at South College Trailer Park, stated he feels the ordinance is reasonable and necessary. He spoke against the 600 square foot requirement and annual inspection proposed by Ms. Rolfes. He stated he felt all rental housing should be regulated, not just mobile homes. 10. Bill Gray, 110 Fishback, also spoke of the problems at 114 Bryan. 11. Bruce Lockhart, 2500 East Harmony Road, questioned how the ordinance affects owner -occupied mobile homes. Following citizen input, Felix Lee'answered questions from Council. ' Councilmember Kirkpatrick made a motion, seconded by Councilmember Maxey, to amend Section 18-11(3) to lengthen the period of time for inspection to 90 days, and to amend Section 18-11(4) to require a mobile home to be -196- October 6, 1987 brought into compliance within 90 days with the occupant being given 30 I days to vacate. Councilmember Kirkpatrick stated she felt the amendment would be more reasonable for CSU students who may have to vacate. Councilmember Maxey stated the amendment stretches out the period for . inspections after the ordinance becomes effective. Martha Doak, 1042 Strachan, stated she felt increasing the number of days to vacate would give tenants more time to find another place to live. Peggy Rolfes, 1535 West Mountain, stated she did not feel adding to the number of days to vacate was a true safeguard because the owner may choose not to notify the tenant until just prior to the end of the 30-day period. Councilmember Horak stated he would not support the amendment. He pointed out the purpose of the ordinance was to deal with basic health and safety issues and expressed concern about what could be happen during a lengthened inspection period and period for vacating. He stated he felt the City should move swiftly on enforcing the ordinance. Assistant Mayor Stoner stated he was not concerned with the 90-day inspection period and stated he was empathetic with an owner having just 60 days to fix up 10 or 12 mobile homes in a 60-day period and therefore would , support increasing the compliance period to 90 days. The vote on Councilmember Kirkpatrick's motion to amend Ordinance No. 159, 1987 was as follows: Yeas: Councilmembers Kirkpatrick, Maxey, and Stoner. Nays: Councilmembers Horak, Mabry, and Winokur. THE MOTION FAILED. Councilmember Mabry stated he was concerned about the amount of time tenants have to vacate. He stated he did not wish to change the 10-day time frame, but would like to amend Section 18-11(4) to give the occupant notification that the unit does not conform and that if the unit does not comply within 60 days, the occupant will be ordered to vacate. Assistant City Attorney Paul Eckman suggested Section 18-11(4) be amended to read "...The owner(s) AND OCCUPANT(S) of every mobile home rental ..." Councilmember Mabry made a motion, seconded by Councilmember Winokur, to amend Section 18-11(4) of Ordinance No. 159, 1987 as suggested by the Assistant City Attorney. Councilmembers Winokur and Horak accepted the amendment as a friendly amendment to their original motion. Councilmember Kirkpatrick made a motion to amend Section 18-9 to provide I for inspection of mobile home parks every 5 years. -197- October 6, 1987 THE MOTION DIED FOR LACK OF A SECOND. Councilmember Horak made a motion to amend Section 1809 to provide for inspection of mobile home parks every 3 years. THE MOTION DIED FOR LACK OF A SECOND. Councilmember Maxey made a motion, amend Section 18-8(c)(1) to provide feet on center rather than 7 feet. seconded by Councilmember Mabry, to that piers be placed a maximum of 8 Councilmember Maxey stated he felt 8 feet would allow for more practical use of skirting materials. Councilmembers Winokur and Horak accepted the amendment as a friendly amendment to their original motion. Paul Eckman and Felix Lee responded to questions about inspections and the processing of complaints. Councilmember Kirkpatrick made a motion, seconded by Councilmember Horak, to amend Section 18-9 to provide for regular inspections to occur every 5 years. Felix Lee pointed out the amendment would require reinspection of every mobile home unit, not just rental units. Carol Podmore, 1205 West Mountain, stated the City Park Neighborhood Association would support any regular inspection process. She spoke of the burden placed on a citizen making a complaint. Peggy Rolfes, 1535 West Mountain, stated she also would support inspection on a regular basis. Steve Barbier, representing Neighbor -to -Neighbor, stated there is not currently a program to assist in rehabilitation of mobile homes. He stated inspection of all mobile homes could be an economic burden to mobile home owner -occupants. Bruce Lockhart, 2500 East Harmony Road, objected to regular inspection of owner -occupied mobile homes. Councilmember Kirkpatrick stated she felt inspections are important to keep this type of housing at an acceptable level and therefore felt it should be applied to all mobile homes. Councilmember Mabry stated he would not support the amendment because the inspection requirement would not apply to other types of rental units. He stated the ordinance was drafted to address the problem of irresponsible landlords who do not maintain their rental units. He stated that requiring Elm October 6, 1987 inspections of all units goes beyond the scope of what was meant to be I accomplished by the ordinance. Councilmember Horak stated he felt the issue of inspections should be addressed whether it be for all units, rental units, or all types of rental housing. Councilmember Winokur stated he felt the first step would be to deal with mobile home rentals. He indicated he would like to get some feedback over the next year on how this program is progressing. Councilmember Stoner stated he would not support the amendment for the same reasons expressed by Councilmember Mabry. He stated he felt the complaint process was adequate to address problems. The vote on Councilmember Kirkpatrick's motion to amend Section 19-8 was as follows: Yeas: Councilmembers Horak and Kirkpatrick. Nays: Councilmembers Mabry, Maxey, Stoner, and Winokur. THE MOTION FAILED. Councilmember Winokur made a motion, seconded by Councilmember Horak, to add the sentence "Reinspection of rental mobile homes shall occur at least once every 5 years." to the end of Section 18-9. Nell Van Driel, 1212 West Mountain, stated she felt 5 years was a long time ' between periodic inspections for properties that are already questionable. The vote on Councilmember Winokur's motion to amend Section 18-9 of Ordinance No. 159, 1987 was as follows: Yeas: Councilmembers Horak, Kirkpatrick, Mabry, Maxey, Stoner, and Winokur. Nays: None. THE MOTION CARRIED. Councilmember Kirkpatrick stated this ordinance walks a fine line between regulating the health and safety of individuals who live in mobile homes and the right to privacy of those individuals. She stated she believed mobile home housing was important in Fort Collins, but did not believe this ordinance would remedy the social problems at 114 Bryan. Councilmember Horak stated he felt the cooperation between staff, mobile home park owners, and neighbors of mobile home parks in drafting the ordinance was good. He expressed concerns about the displacement of tenants and stated he would like to receive ideas from staff and other agencies on how to deal with the problem of displacement. He requested a report within 60-70 days on the outcome of the inspections, and another report within 130 days on the status of units that did not pass inspection. Councilmember Winokur concurred with Councilmembers Kirkpatrick and Horak. He emphasized the ordinance was drafted in order to deal with a specific mobile home park. He stated the issue was not only health 'and safety, but ' -199- October 6, 1987 ' prevention so that more situation don't occur in the future. He pointed out the burden is placed on the owner of the mobile home, not the renter. The vote on Councilmember Winokur's original motion to adopt Ordinance No. 159, 1987 as amended on First Reading was as follows: Yeas: Councilmembers Horak, Kirkpatrick, Mabry, Maxey, Stoner, and Winokur. Nays: None. THE MOTION CARRIED. Resolution 87-142 Adopting Financial and Management Policies Relating to the 1988 Annual Budget Adopted Following is staff's memorandum on this item: "Executive Summary Financial and Management Policies are used in developing and formulating the 1988 Annual Budget. The Financial and Management Policies reflect Council's direction and commitment to sound financial planning. Background ' The Financial and Management Policies form the basis on which the City of Fort Collins' Annual Budget is based. In 1986, Council directed some significant changes in the Financial and Management Policies. The changes directed by Council reflected a desire to have the Financial and Management Policies more closely reflect the actual processes used in preparing the Annual Budget. For 1988, staff has undertaken a further review of the Financial and Management Policies. Although some changes to these policies will be forthcoming, they are not incorporated in the Budget. Staff will present the Council directed revisions to the User Fee Policy, Payment in Lieu of Taxes (PILOT) Policy and Debt Policy at a future date. No major changes are incorporated in the 1988 Financial and Management Policies. The following is the only significant change incorporated in the 1988 Budget: General Administrative Charges (Section 3.1) have been updated to provide greater allocation of General Fund costs among the various City funds." City Manager Burkett indicated staff was requesting revisions to Exhibit "A" as provided to Council prior to the meeting. Councilmember Mabry made a motion, to adopt Resolution 87-142 includin g -200- October 6, 1987 THE MOTION CARRIED. Budget Consent Items Items 32-38 are being presented together in the Consent Calendar format. These items have been reviewed and discussed at budget work sessions and are being presented in this manner to expedite their adoption. As with the regular Consent Calendar, any item may be withdrawn for discussion by any member of the Council, staff or public and will be considered after the balance of the Budget Consent is adopted. Councilmember Winokur requested Item #32, Hearing and First Reading of Ordinance No. 160, 1987, Amending Chapter 26 of the Code of the City of Fort Collins Relating to 1988 Stormwater Utility Fees, be removed from the Budget Consent Calendar. Councilmember Horak requested Item #38, Resolution 87-147 Adopting 1988 Recreation Fees and Charges, be withdrawn from the Budget Consent Agenda. 32. The following table is a comparison of the total monthly fees for 1987 and the proposed total monthly fees for 1988 for the typical single family residence, which is a 6,000 square foot lot with 40% impervious surface: Foothills $1.76 $2.05 Fox Meadows 2.20 2.51 McClelland/Mail Creek 3.35 3.54 Spring Creek 1.49 1.90 Canal Importation 2.11 2.47 Dry Creek 1.60 1.82 West Vine 1.76 1.96 Evergreen Park/Greenbriar 3.24 3.54 Fossil Creek 3.05 3.21 All other basins 0.00 0.00 O&M 0.92 1.04 There are no proposed changes to the Basin New Development Fees in 1988. The Storm Drainage' Board does not recommend the total fee increase in the operations and maintenance fee. The Board feels the General Fund Transfer should only be $69,406 with the remaining $66,000 considered for the 1989 Budget. -201- October 6, 1987 33. The recommended 1988 Budget, as presented, includes a 4% increase in monthly wastewater fees. This increase is necessary in order to ensure that sufficient revenue is generated to meet anticipated expenses and.to comply with City financial policies. The last increase in service fees was two years ago when a 4% increase was implemented. The 4% adjustment will increase the wastewater service fee for a typical single family residential customer by $.43 per month (from $10.83 to $11.26). 34. Resolution 87-143 Approving the 1988 Budget for the Poudre Fire Authority. The Intergovernmental Agreement between the City of Fort Collins and the Poudre Valley Fire Protection District specifies that the Poudre Fire Authority Board shall submit the budget to the respective governing bodies. The budget becomes the Authority Budget only after approval of the appropriations by the respective governing bodies and final adoption by the Poudre Fire Authority Board of Directors. 35. Resolution 87- ' Proposed rates for 1988 reflect increases in most room rental and additional services. New rates remain comparable with other facilities in the area. The 1988 revenue projections are based on these fee changes. Major changes include: 1 - Rates for four and eight hour meetings have increased for non-profit users. 2 - Rates for both commercial and non-profit users have increased in the Performance Hall and Mini -Theatre. This also includes increases in additional services related to those areas. 3 - A $.50 handling charge on phone orders for Visa and Mastercard is proposed in the box office area. 36. Resolution 87- To continue to satisfy cost recovery policies, an approximate 4.6 percent increase in operating revenue has been budgeted for 1988 in the Golf Fund. The Golf Board and staff are recommending an increase ' of $1 for 18-holes of golf, increases of $10 each for adult, student, senior and spouse annual passes, and a $5 increase for junior annual passes. Green fees for 9-holes of golf will remain at 1987 rates, and -202- October 6, 1987 fees for golf car rentals and all other golf related services will also remain at existing 1987 rates. 37. Resolution 87- This resolution will increase most cemetery user fees by an average of 10 percent as of January 1, 1988. The recommended increase in fees and charges is consistent with the revenues projected in the 1988 recommended budget document. 38. Resolution 87-147 Adopting 1988 Recreation Division Fees and Charges The Recreation Fund receives financial support from the General Fund. The policy established by City Council in 1980 requires a minimum 50 percent recovery of total fund expenses through user fees and charges. Since 1980, the Fund has not dropped below the 50 percent requirement. In June 1986, City Council requested review of the fee policy. Staff is currently working on policy alterations. The 1988 Recreation Fund budget includes normal inflationary items as well as the inclusion of additional insurance costs, which in the past were budgeted in the insurance fund. In order to cover increases and keep the subsidy from the General Fund from growing in 1988, program fees and charges were adjusted to project higher revenue generation. Ordinances on First Reading were read by title by Wanda Krajicek, City Clerk. Item #32. Item #33. Councilmember Horak made a motion, seconded by Councilmember Kirkpatrick, to adopt and ,approve all items not removed from the Budget Consent Calendar. Yeas-.1 Councilmembers Horak, Mabry, Maxey, Stoner, and Winokur. Nays: None. (Councilmember Kirkpatrick withdrawn) THE MOTION CARRIED. Resolution 87-147 Adopting 1988 Recreation Division Fees and Charges, Tabled to October 20 Following is staff's memorandum on this item: I -203- October 6, 1987 "Financial Impact Cost recovery through fees and charges in the Recreation Fund is projected to increase from 57 to 64 percent in 1988, and reflects a two percent decrease in General Fund support. In 1988, staff has projected receiving $1,565,512 from fees and charges as budgeted. Executive Summary The Recreation Fund receives financial support from the General Fund. The policy established by City Council in 1980 requires a minimum 50 percent recovery of total fund expenses through user fees and charges. Since 1980, the Fund has not dropped below the 50 percent requirement. In June 1986, City Council requested review of the fee policy. Staff is currently working on policy alterations. The 1988 Recreation Fund budget includes normal inflationary items as well as the inclusion of additional insurance costs, which in the past were budgeted in the insurance fund. In order to cover increases and keep the subsidy from the General Fund from growing in 1988, program fees and charges were adjusted to project higher revenue generation. ' Background Staff recommends an increase in most Recreation fees and charges in order to balance the fund. Program service levels will remain the same. Those activities targeted for increased fees in 1988 are all swim drop -in, youth skate drop -in, arts and crafts, youth programs, drop -in rates at the Northside Aztlan Community Center, youth and adult sports, older adult activities, and most rentals. Charges to affiliated user groups remain at the 1987 level, as do some programs such as swim and tennis lessons which were raised in 1987. The Parks and Recreation Board at its regular meeting of September 23, 1987, reviewed the fees and charges schedule for 1988 and voted 5-2 not to support the recommended fees. The Board expressed concern about the continued rise in the percentage of program revenue needed to balance the fund and recommends that fees and charges not be the only contribution to increases in the fund. The following fees and charges, grouped by budgeted program area, are being recommended: -204- October 6, 1987 FEES AND CHARGES SCHEDULE I 1986 1987 1988 Program: Edora Pool Ice Center Program: Aquatics Swimming - all pools Learn to swim 2.50/inst. hr. 3.00/inst. hr. 3.00/inst hr Water Fitness 1.50/inst. hr. 2.00/inst. hr. 2.00/inst hr Other activities Varies varies varies Single admission Under 2; over 85 Free Free Free 2-17 years 1.00 1.00 1.25 18-49 years 1.50 1.50 2.00 50 years & older 1.25 1.25 1.50 Lap swim 1.25 1.50 --- 30-admission pass 2-17 years 22.50 22.50 28.00 18-49 years 33.75 33.75 45.00 50 years & older 20.00 25.00 33.75 Lap swim 28.00 30.00 --- Boat rental - Sheldon Lake 1.25/ha7f hr. 1.50/ha7f hr 1.50/half hr 2.00/hour 2.25/hour 2.50/hour Poo) rental , Fort Collins Community Pool and Outdoor Pool Affiliated 15.00/hr. 4.00/7ane hr* --- Community 30.00/hr. 6.50/7ane hr** --- Commercial By Contract By Contract --- EPIC Affiliated 4.00/7ane hr* --- Community 6.50/1ane hr*** --- Commercial By Contract --- A11 Pools 25 yd. and 25 Meter Affiliated -- 4.00/1a hr Community 6.50/7a hr Commercial -- By Contract 50 Meter (EPIC) Affiliated - 6.50/1a hr Community 9.0011a hr Commercial -- By Contract Other Pool Areas -- Varies -205- October 6, 1987 1 * No Minimum ** Minimum $19.50/hour *** Minimum 332.50/hour Therapeutic Pool -EPIC Drop -In Use Group Usage Exercise Room -EPIC Ice Skating Learn to skate Patch & freestyle Other activities Single admission Adult (18 and older) Youth (17 and under) 50 years and older Group Rates Skate rental ' 30-admission pass Adult 18 and older Youth 17 and under 50 and Older Skate Rental Only Skate Sharpening Ice Rental Youth Hockey General Prime Non -Prime Late Night Program: General Recreation Arts & Crafts General classes - adult - youth Pottery classes - adult - youth Pottery lab Dance - adult classes - youth classes Fitness - adult classes ' - youth classes 20.00 15.00 40.00 20.00 35.00 2.50/inst hr. 7.50/inst hr. 1.75/inst hr. 1.50/inst hr.

Executive Summary The following table is a comparison of the total monthly fees for 1987 and the proposed total monthly fees for 1988 for the typical single family residence, which is a 6,000 square foot lot with 40% impervious surface: Foothills $1.76 $2.05 Fox Meadows 2.20 2.51 McClelland/Mail Creek 3.35 3.54 Spring Creek 1.49 1.90 Canal Importation 2.11 2.47 Dry Creek 1.60 1.82 West Vine 1.76 1.96 Evergreen Park/Greenbriar 3.24 3.54 Fossil Creek 3.05 3.21 All other basins 0.00 0.00 O&M 0.92 1.04 There are no proposed changes to the Basin New Development Fees in 1988. ' The Storm Drainage Board does not recommend the total fee increase in the operations and maintenance fee. The Board feels the General Fund Transfer should only be $69,406 with the remaining $66,000 considered for the 1989 Budget." Councilmember Horak made a motion, seconded by Councilmember Kirkpatrick, to adopt Ordinance No. 160, 1987 on First Reading. Councilmember Winokur stated he pulled this item because of differences of opinion on the Storm Drainage Board, and their concern regarding the inclusion of the impact fee. He noted the Storm Drainage Board felt the fee needed further scrutiny. He stated he would like to see more of a consensus between staff and the Storm Drainage Board. He stated he would prefer to see the rate include only the General Fund administrative charge and not the impact fee. Councilmember Winokur made a motion, seconded by Councilmember Kirkpatrick, to amend section (a) of Ordinance No. 167, 1987 to change the figure "0.0004333" to "0.0003917 City Manager Burkett pointed out that the amendment would reduce the revenue to the General Fund by $66,000. He urged Council to approve the Resolution as proposed. ' Councilmember Winokur stated he felt the fee was a disguised PILOT fee and he could not support it. -210- October 6, 1987 Councilmember Horak stated he did feel the Board's correspondence or ' discussion indicate that some fee is not justified, but rather they are not ready to say what quantity is fair. He stated he felt the Board would support an impact fee in 1989. Councilmember Kirkpatrick questioned the rationale for this type of impact fee and noted she also believed it was too closely associated with a PILOT fee. Councilmember Mabry stated he agreed the issue needs more study, but noted nothing the ordinance precludes the Storm Drainage Board for studying the issue further. He stated if further study shows the fee is not justified, the fee could be reimbursed. The vote on Councilmember Winokur's motion to amend Ordinance No. 160, 1987 was as follows: Yeas: Councilmembers Horak, Kirkpatrick, Maxey, Stoner, and Winokur. Nays: Councilmember Mabry.

He noted it is not a substitute for a franchise or PILOT fee. Councilmember Horak requested a timeline from staff and the Storm Drainage ' Board as to how they plan to proceed with further analysis of the issue. The vote on Councilmember Horak's motion to adopt Ordinance No. 160, 1987 as amended was as follows: Yeas: Councilmembers Horak, Kirkpatrick, Mabry, Maxey, Stoner, and Winokur. Nays: None.
