Following is the City.Manager's memorandum on this item:
This District was established to improve South Mason Street between Drake
Road and Horsetooth Road including the installation of a.water line in a.
portion of the street. The hearing for this Ordinance was held on Novenber
15, 1977, and no objections were raised.
However, Ed Carroll discussed with the staff a problem relating to the water
line installation in Mason Street. Mr. Carroll has already paid for his share
of the cost of.a water line on the frontage road and in Swallow Road adjacent
to this property. He considers the benefit of a third water .line minimal and
requests Council consider relief on his assessment. The final Council consider-
ation on such relief could take place at the completion of the District when
Council considers the assessment role.

Ordinance Tabled to January 17, 1978
Calling a Special Election to Form
a Downtown Development Authority
Following is the City Manager's memorandum on this item:
382
December 20, 1977
This ordinance is to call an election for January 17, 1978, on the question
of creating a Downtown Development Authority. Council has had much material
explaining what it is and what it will do. That material is attached again.
The Authority would be created as a tool for the downtovm to redevelop itself.
Tax increment financing would be allowed through the Authority, and it now is
not allowed.
Council has had a good deal of discussion about whether to call the election
now for January 17th or to delay it until t1) the present downtown project is
canpleted, and (2) more meetings can be held to allow downtown people to give
us their thoughts. !
In conversations with Council it's clear there is strong feeling for the
Development Authority and strong feeling that the downtown people should have
time to ask questions, study the concept, and decide. (buntil also feels
it would be desirable to wait on the election until after the present ongoing
work is complete.
City Attorney March spoke to his concern, primarily, that the City
get this issue going in order to get it into the courts.

Ordinance Adopted as Amended on First Reading Amending
the Flood Plain Ordinance Relating to Nonconforming Use
Following is the City Manager's memorandum on this item:
The Housing Rehabilitation Program has been hampered because
of the restrictions of the flood plain ordinance relating to
nonconforming uses. Under the terms of the current ordinance,
alterations cannot be made to a building in the flood plain
which is nonconforming if the cost of the alterations is
more than 25% of the assessed value. Assessed values for
structures in the area in question are relatively low, and
this restriction has prevented renovation work in several
cases. The federal requirements pertaining to flood insurance
are not this stringent and would allow repairs, reconstruction
and improvement costing up to 50% of the market value of the
structure. A letter from Robert E. Shaw, Flood Plain Manage-
ment Specialist for HUD, addressing this subject is attached
to this memo.
In order to permit the renovation of existing structures
which are currently inhabited, it appears desirable to relax
the requirements of the flood plain ordinance. This would
not allow construction of new structures but would only
allow renovation of existing structures.
City Attorney March recommended the following amendment:
That after the word "chapter" in Section 2(C) that the
following be added:
",provided that alterations, additions or repairs made
solely to assure safe living conditions in a dwelling may
be made without regard to this limitation."

Administration Directed to Proceed with the
Soldier Canyon Outlet Project.
Following is the City..Manager's memorandum and recommendation
on this item:
Original costs for increasing the capacity of the Soldier Canyon Outlet were
estimated at $2,000,000,with the City's share being spread over three years
as follows: 1977 - $200,000; 1978 - $850,000, and 1979 - $750,000.
Bids for the work, however, were received in amounts above the original con-
struction estimate.
For reasons outlined in the attached menu from Roger Krempel, the bid will
probably be awarded to the second law bidder resulting in the following cost
breakdown:
Second Iva Bid $2,338,000
Non-const. Cost 550,000
Project Cost 2,888,000
Paid to Date 200,000
Due 1978, 1979 2,688,000
his will increase the City's share of the costs to $1,103,000 in 1978 and
$939,000 in 1979.
The Water Board reoommends that we proceed with the project inspite of the
increased cost.
Council should decide whether or not the City will proceed with the project,
recognizing that if we do proceed, a year end 1978 ad:ustment may be needed
to increase the appropriation for this project from the present $850,000 for
1978 to $1,103,000. Sufficient surplus operating funds were transferred int
the caoital accounts to cover this increased cost.
PecoTanendation: The Administration recomrends that Council direct us to proceed
with with the City's share estimated at $1,103,000 in 1978 and $939,000

Resolution Adopted as Amended Approving Amendments
to Electric Service Rules and Regulations
Following is the City Manager's memorandum and recommendation
on this item:
During the review of the Light and Power budget for 1978, Council requested a
revision to our present policy for the extension of service to new customers.
Specifically, it was requested that we initiate a cost -recovery program whereby
line extension costs will be born totally by the customer requesting new or
augmented electric service. The attached rules and regulations address this
issue in the following way: '
1. Starting in 1978, a contribution in aid of construction (at a 50% cost
rate) will be charged for line extensions on all new or augmented,
electric service.
2. Starting in 1979, a contribution in aid of construction equal to 100%
of cost for line extensions will be charged.
The Light and Power Department has also amended some other minor regulations
to ensure clarity of interpretation as noted in the attachment.
Feccmrendation: The Administration remmmnds that the city Council approve
the proposed amendments, to the Light and Pacer Department's Electric Service
Riles and R-gulations and Electric Construction Policies, Practices, and
Procedures, and adopt the attached Resolution.

Other Business
A. Purchase of Additional Shares of Water Supply and Storage
Company Approved
Following is the City Manager's memorandum and recommendation
on this item:
The City entered into an agreement with Water Supply and
Storage Company several years ago, anticipating City ownership
of some Water Supply stock and providing the means for
utilizing the water represented by that stock in the City
water utility. Under that agreement, Water Supply will
release the water represented by the City's stock to the
City through Chambers Lake or similar facilities which can
deliver to the Poudre River above the City's No. l.plant.
This is particularly valuable to the City because it provides
a source of water for times when the river is too low to
meet the demands of the City. Also some.waters developed by
Water Supply and Storage Company are foreign waters which
open up reuse possibilities. This agreement with Water
Supply is limited to 15 shares of stock. This does not mean
that the City cannot acquire more shares but Water Supply
would not be obligated to work with the City for more than
that amount of water.
412
I
December 20, 1977
The City has received an offer to sell four shares of Water
-Supply stock.- Under this offer the City would issue water
certificates similar to the Josh Ames certificates.in exchange
for the Water Supply stock. Each certificate would be
.accepted by the City in satisfaction of the City's water
requirements for one-third of an acre of land. Water Supply
and Storage Company stock yields 107 acre-feet of water
annually on the average and, therefore, 107 such certificates
would be issued for.each share of Water Supply stock (present
City water requirement is three acre-feet to the acre).
This proposal appears advantageous to the City since the
City would not need to invest any cash at this time. In
effects the City would pay for the Water Supply stock as the
certificates were turned in in satisfaction of the City's
water requirement.
Council will recall that nine shares of'the 15 have already
been purchased and that each share is worth something in the
neighborhood of $80,000. (Another one -plus share is in the
works.) So this proposal is very sound in terms of value.
This proposal has been presented to the Water Board and the
Water Board has unanimously recommended that the City accept
the proposal. The attached agreement would.accomplish this
and has been approved by the City Attorney.
Recommendation: Administration recommends that the City
Council approve the proposed agreement for the acquisition
of four shares of the common stock of the Water Supply and
Storage Company, authorize the City Manager and City Clerk
to execute the agreement on behalf of the City, and further
authorize the City Administration to issue. the water certifi-
cates provided for in the agreement and to complete and
close the purchase.

B. Water Quality Report
City Attorney March stated for the record that the City has a
law suit in progress which involves the Water Quality Control
Commission and the Enforcement Division under that Commission.
Negotiations have been made and a proposal has been prepared;
it is his understanding that Council has authorized him to
proceed with the proposed settlement.
C. Bids Awarded for 32 Benches at Planter Walls - Central
Area Beautification
Following is a memorandum from the Downtown Project Director
on this item:
"EDAW designed the above captioned benches and recommended we
budget $17,600 for construction. The subsequent bid process
produced a bid of $36,000,00. When we questioned the contractor
why his bid was so high, he cited what he considered unreasonable
EDAW specifications. First, the wall bench timbers had to be
manufactured here and then shipped away for impregnation; second,
he said the freestanding benches were too intricately detailed.
Subsequently Mr. Ferluga and Mr. Roesser contacted a local
carpentry firm who designed and built a prototype of each bench.
It is this revised part of designs that came in for $24,500.50.
Attached herewith is a map depicting location of the freestanding
benches. The Council has the option of eliminating all or some
of the freestanding benches. On the .other hand, slots have
already been placed in the concrete planter walls for the wall
benches, therefore, there would be no option on the latter."
Councilman Russell inquired into the proposed bench locations and
what was happening to the benches which have been offered to
merchants which would provide for advertising.
City Manager Arnold stated he would investigate the questions
and recommended the City perhaps purchase two additional benches
to provide for bus pickup.
Councilman Wilkinson made a motion, seconded by Councilwoman Gray
Ell
to approve the purchases and award the bid to is Manufacturing
Company. Yeas: Councilmembers Bloom, Gray, Russell and
Wilkinson. Nays: None.
