1977 Audit Received
City Manager Arnold introduced Mr. John B. Knezovich of
Kruchten and Company who distributed conies of the 1977
Audit prepared by his firm to the Council.
He stated that the audit would be discussed in more detail
at a meeting during July after Council has had an opportunity
to review it and that a management letter addressing points
that they think ought to be brought to Council's attention in
terms of policy matters would be presented at that time.
Ordinance Adopted on First Reading Adopting by Reference
the Colorado Model Energy Efficiency Construction and
Renovation Standards for Nonresidential Buildings of
the State of Colorado and the Colorado Recommended
Energy Conservation "Performance" Code for New Construction
and Renovation of Residential Buildings.
Following is City Manager's memorandum on this item:
This Ordinance will in effect replace our existing insulation code
for new residential construction which was approved last year by Council with the State
Residential Code as mandated in Senate Bill #154.
' This Ordinance also allows us to conform with Senate Bill #432
which requires municipalities on or before July 1, 1978, to adopt as part of its
building code energy efficiency construction and renovation standards for nonresidential
buildings.
The insulation code committee which originally developed the City's
insulation ordinance has reviewed the State requirements and reco Trends their adoption.
The Building Board of Appeals has also reviewed the proposed ordinance and also recom-
mends its approval.
Significant changes or additions to the existing insulation ordinance
are further discussed in the attached staff report.
We reccumend approval of this ordinance on first reading.
City Manager Arnold pointed out that the public hearing on
this item would be held at the July 5th meeting on second read-
ing.
Chief Building Inspector Waldo noted that the State had
done a good job in drafting this code and that there was a
1
350
June 20, 1978
great deal of flexibility in it.
Councilmember Gray made a motion, seconded by Councilman '
Bowling to adopt Ordinance No. 60, 1978, on first reading.
Yeas: Councilmembers Bowling, Gray, Russell, St. Croix,
Suinn and Wilkinson. Nays: None.
THE MOTION CARRIED
Ordinance Adopted on First Reading Amending Chapter
47 of the Code of the City of Fort Collins Adopting an
Electrical Code.
Following is City Manager's memorandum on this item:
The Electrical Code currently enforced in the City of Fort Collins was
adopted in 1975. The National. Fire Protection Association has promulgated a new
Electrical Code which reflects recent changes in the law and in technological develop-
ments. The new Electrical Code is more appropriate for the needs of the City.
An Electrical Code Cormittee as well as the Building Board of Appeals
have reviewed the changes. The ,Electrical Code Ccnmittee reconnended the adoption of
the new Code with the exception of Change No. 1 listed below. The Building Board of
Appeals recommends the adoption of the 1978 Electrical Code as written. I
The most significant changes in the Code are:
1. The requirement for an additional grounding electrode.
This means in addition to grounding to the water service
line another grounding must be made to a driven ground
rod.
2. Re -rating of wire capacity which allows for smaller wire
cable in a conduit. This has been made possible by a
new type of hard, heat -resistant, wire covering.
3. Non-metallic cable must be attached to all outlet boxes
when more than two boxes are attached together in a gang
fashion.
9. Several editorial changes for the purpose of clarification.
The most significant change is the requirement for an additional
grounding electrode. This means,. in general terms, that in addition to grounding to
the metal underground water pipe, which has been the practice, we will have to require
that grounding also be made to a driven ground rod. This requirement will add an addi-
tional average cost of $20 per house and probably considerably more than $20 for each
cammercial.building.
351
June 20, 1978
' The rationale for the additional ground electrode is the increased
use of plastic water lines, particularly on the west coast and portions of the east
coast.
Since plastic has not been approved, in Fort Collins, for water
service lines or water piping, and since we have not had any problems with the present
grounding system, the Electric Code Oznnittee and staff recormended to the Board of
Appeals that we amend Article 250 to read as worded in the 1975 Edition.
The Ordinance before Council today incorporates the changes recorrr
mended by the Code Cormiittee and staff.
Councilman Wilkinson questioned the need for additional
grounding electrodes in the garage.
Chief Building Inspector Waldo responded that ground fault
interrupters were required in the garage, bathrooms and all
exterior outlets that can be reached from grade. He noted
that one ground fault interrupter can be installed in the
panel that would take care of all three locations and would
fit into the one-time cost for the ground fault interrupters.
He further noted that if all the garage outlets were on a
ground fault interrupter, freezers may trip them and if
not immediately discovered, the contents of the freezer
might spoil. He stated that he was looking into the possi-
bility of administratively allowing one outlet not on the
ground fault interrupter for a fixed appliance in the garage,
provided it would not be accessible to power tools.
Councilman Wilkinson made a motion, seconded by Councilman
Russell to adopt Ordinance 61, 1978, on first reading.
Yeas: Councilmembers Bowling, Gray, Russell, St. Croix,
Suinn and Wilkinson. Nays: None.
THE MOTION CARRIED
Ordinance Adopted on First Reading Amending Section
112-24 of the Code of the City of Fort Collins Relating
to the Water Utilitv
Following is the City Manager's memorandum on this item:
At its May meeting the Water Board considered a draft ordinance
imposing a permanent ban on watering between the hours of midnight to 4 a.m. daily.
The intent of this ordinance is to curtail the practice of turning
sprinklers on in the evening and allowing them to run in a given spot all night. The
Water Board considered this to be a fairly cammn practice but thought it to be wasteful
of water.
'
352
June 20, 1978
The ordinance does provide exceptions for automatic sprinkler systems I
on time clocks that may be set to run during these hours to take advantage of the cool
of the night and higher water pressures.
If the ordinance is accepted by the City Council, the Water Utility
will conduct spot checks throughout the simmer to monitor compliance.
Molly Nortier, [dater Conservation Representative, noted
that all permits for exception to the ordinance would be
visibly posted.
City Manager Arnold noted that the City would follow the
same conservation efforts that the ordinance shows.
Councilman Bowling made a motion, seconded by Councilman
St. Croix to adopt Ordinance No. 46, 1978, on first reading.
Yeas: Councilmembers Bowling, Gray, Russell, St. Croix,
Suinn and Wilkinson. Nays: None.
THE MOTION CARRIED
Ordinance Adopted on First Reading Annexing Property
Known as the Horsetooth-Harmony Annexation to the
city of Fort Collins '
Following is the City Manager's memorandum on this item:
Thus annexation petition is for approximately 260 acres on the west
side of South College Avenue between Horsetooth Road and Harmony Road.
The resolution initiating this annexation was approved at the May
16 Council meeting which established June 20 as the hearing date for the Horsetooth-
Harmony Annexation. The zoning on this annexation will come before Council at the
time the annexation comes to Council on second reading.
The City Attorney will provide a report at the Council meeting con-
cerning legal matters pertaining to this annexation.
City Manager Arnold pointed out that the zoning on this
item had gone to Planning and Zoning on June 12 and will
be coming to Council on first reading when the annexation is on
second reading and that it will be set up so that Council will
act on the zoning ordinance before they act on the second
reading of the annexation. This is at the request of the
353
June 20, 1978
' property owners and developers who have some concerns in
this area.
Councilman Wilkinson made a motion, seconded by Councilperson
Gray to adopt Ordinance No. 63, 1978, on first reading.
Yeas: Councilmembers Bowling, Gray, Russell, St. Croix, Suinn
and Wilkinson. Nays: None.
THE MOTION CARRIED
Ordinance Adopted on First Reading Amending the Zoning
Ordinance by Changing the Zoning Classification for Certain
Property and -Making Certain Findings Related Thereto.
Following is the City Manager's memorandum on this item:
The public hearing on this Onc rdinae was held at the June 6 Council
meeting.
This is the citizen -initiated rezoning of 88 acres located west of
Shields Street on Mountain Avenue. The legal description has been revised and Relger
Park will be excluded from the area rezoned per Council's motion.
Approval of the Ordinance will rezone this area from R-M, Medium
Density Residential to R-L, Ina Density Residential. Any existing R-M uses would be
legally nonconforming uses and be permitted to continue in existence in accordance with
the provisions on nonconforming uses in the Code.
we included findings in the ordinance which would be the basis of
the rezoning, and we recommend approval based upon those findings.
Assistant City Attorney Liley stated that the legal descrip-
tions had been amended to reflect the exclusion of both the
Frey and Kelger Park subdivisions from the rezoning.
Councilman Russell made a motion, seconded by Councilman
Bowling to adopt Ordinance No. 64, 1978, on first reading.

THE MOTION CARRIED
Resolution Adopted Authorizing the City of Fort Collins
to Enter into an Intergovernmental Agreement with '
Larimer County and the City of Loveland, Colorado, for
the Purpose of Conducting a Comprehensive Planning
Study (Corridor Study)
Following is the City Manager's memorandum on this item
As previously authorized by Council, the cities of Fort Collins
and Loveland and Larimler County are prepared to enter into a consulting agreement with
the Toups Corporation to conduct a comprehensive planning study of the unincorporated
area situated between the cities of Fort Collins and Loveland.
The attached Resolution authorizes the City of Fort Collins to enter
into an intergovernmental agreement with Loveland and Larimer County for this purpose.
The intergovernmental agreement has been approved by the City of
Loveland. It should also be noted that the intergovernmental agreement is tied to the
scope of work provided between the County and the Toups Corporation and is for the amount
of $15,000 which was previously approved by Council.
We recommend approval of the Resolution.
355
June 20, 1978
Councilman Russell asked who would be permanently assigned
from the Council to monitor the study.
Councilman Bowling noted that he and Councilman St. Croix
had been appointed as representatives to the Steering
Committee and by Resolution at the last Steering Committee,
it was permanently established that the six members as appointed
would be the permanent steering committee.
Councilperson Gray made a motion, seconded by Councilman
Bowling to adopt Resolution No. 78-51. Yeas: Councilmembers
Bowling, Gray, St. Croix, Suinn and Wilkinson. Nays:

THE MOTION CARRIED
2000 Park Center P.U.D.
Final Plans Approved with Conditions
Following is the City Manager's memorandum on this item:
This is the final plan for a proposed owmercial development on the
southeast corner of South College Avenue and Spring Park Drive.
'The Council reviewed the preliminary site plan for this proposal at
the May 16 Council meeting. At that time a number of revisions were recommended
including frontage road development, parking, pedestrian access and landscaping. Some
of these changes have been made; however, the staff and the developer have not agreed
to a number of points as outlined on Page three of the staff report. Because some of
these points can't be resolved at the staff level, this plan has to come before Council
with these conditions attached.
1. Existing Sign. A portion of the "Franz Realty" sign located at the
northwest corner of the site will extend into the frontage road
right-of-way when the required additional eight feet is dedicated.
The sign will then not conform to the sign code. Staff feels the
sign should be brought into conformance;
2. Parking Spaces. As indicated in the above conditions for preliminary
approval, two parking spaces at the west end of the site were to be
removed so as to avoid conflicts with traffic turning off the frontage
road. The applicant has deleted one space and feels that it would be
unnecessary to delete the second because the frontage road does not
extend south of the Arthur Subdivision (Taco Johns) and will therefore
1
356
June 20. 1978
carry minimal traffic. For the short term, the staff agrees. However,
when the frontage road extends through to Rutgers a significant amount
of traffic is anticipated, thereby increasing the potential for conflicts
between traffic turning off the frontage road and backing movements from
the parking space in question. The staff recommends that the utility
agreement give the city the option to require elimination of the parking
space when the frontage road is completed on this block;
3. Landscaping. As per the staff's request the applicant has indicated the
landscaped island between College Avenue and the frontage road on his
final landscape plan. The applicant, however, refuses to include a
shade tree in the island. The staff has consistently required shade
trees at a maximum of 40 foot intervals. (The plan for the adjacent
Taco Johns island calls for four Honey Locusts within the 95 feet of
frontage.) The staff feels the frontage road improvements and land-
scaping for2000 Park Center and Taco Johns should be made with devel-
opment of this site;
4. Sidewalk. An important part of the evaluation of this plan and ration-
alization for permitting less than the usually required parking was
the provision of good pedestrian accessibility. A sidewalk on the
west side of Remington was agreed to be a critical element for pedes-
trian traffic. A City electric utility installation blocks the entire
right-of-way between the curb and the existing garages. The only
feasible design solution is to relocate the existing curb and gutter
and swing the walk around the electric utility installation, at a cost
of approximately $750. The Engineering Department has agreed that the
City should participate in this cost; '
5. Frontage Road. The design of the frontage road north of Arthur Sub. and
the transition around the curb radius into the access road is not accep-
table as it includes grades, which represent a driving hazard. This
portion of the utility plan must be redesigned to provide an acceptable
solution.
City Manager Arnold noted that most of the five staff concerns
had been worked out.
Eldon Ward, Planner II, noted that the applicant is in
agreement with all the conditions and offered a slide presen-
tation to illustrate the staff comments. He noted that the
engineers still needed to work out some of the Qrades with
the Bank property. He further noted that the City would help
with the cost of moving the sign because of a staff error
from several years ago and would pay one-half of the cost of
relocating the sidewalk.
Councilman Wilkinson asked that the sidewalk requirement be
eliminated, thereby saving the City the cost of putting it in
as he felt it was an unnecessary duplication. He also pointed
out that a pedestrian bridge would be required at the point
357 1
June 20, 1978
the sidewalk crosses the ditch which would be another ex-
pense. He suggested landscaping be considered as an alter-
native to make the rear of the building more attractive to
those who face it.
Councilman Bowling expressed agreement with this concept.
Loyd Klemsz, President of University National Bank, expressed
concern relative to the entrance to the P.U.D. on South
College. He noted the various traffic problems associated
with the drive -up facility in that traffic would back up on
South College if the entrance was blocked by a car.
Councilman Bowling agreed with Mr. Klemsz' point and suggested
that the matter be referred back to staff for a study of.that
whole section of the frontage road system.
Bill Franz, owner of a portion of the P.U.D., called Council's
attention to the fact that the original plan called for a
green area on the east line along Remington but that later
the engineers had asked for a sidewalk in that area. He also
spoke to the issue of the placement of the sign.
City Manager Arnold noted that the City would absorb the cost
of moving the sign; however, it still would be.a nonconforming
sign and that issue would have to be resolved by a Zoning
' Board of Appeals variance.
Public Works Director Roy Bingman addressed the frontage road
system from Rutgers to the Bank property. He noted that real-
istically, development of that section would probably have to
wait until certain older properties along the system either
redevelop or some other major change takes place. The engin-
eering department is trying to take some interim measures to
get as much of the frontage road constructed that fits into a
future plan and still give the property owners access to their
properties.
Councilman Bowling made a motion, seconded by Councilman
Wilkinson to approve the _2000 Park Center P.U.D., final plans
subject to the following three conditions.
1. no requirement for sidewalks at the rear of the
building but with the understanding that sidewalks
be provided on the other side of the street all the way
around and that the area be landscaped.
2. the sign issue be resolved either by a Zoning Board of
1
358
June 20, 1978
Appeals variance or by bringing the sign into con- '
formance and further;
3. that the issue of the traffic flow be resolved by re-
ferring the matter back to staff for a study of the
whole section of the frontage road system from Rutgers
to the site and that no frontage road construction
take place on this section until the staff recommedation
is received.

Suinn and Wilkinson. Nays: None.
THE MOTION CARRIED
Mayor Suinn announced that Council would recess for dinner.
(Secretary's note: Councilman Russell left the meeting during'
the dinner break.)
Citizen Participation
Proclamation - United Day Care Center '
City Clerk - Verna Lewis read the proclamation declaring
June 28, 1978, as Jack Nicklaus - United Day Care Center day.
The proclamation was accepted by a member of the United Day
Care Center board, who thanked the City officials for recog-
nizing their efforts and the services the United Day Care
Center provides.
City Manager's Report
a. City Manager Arnold introduced G. C. "Chuck" Mabry,
who is the new Planning and Development Director.
b. He then announced that Robert L. Lee has been appointed
and has accepted the position of Traffic Engineer and
will be on the job July 10.
C. He then noted that there has been some data analysis
concerning the library hours to determine type and
359 1
June 20, 1978
' amount of usage on a given day. He stated that the
probable solution to the problem of keeping the library
open on Sundays would be to arrange a "trade-off".
This means we would close on a day with slower usage
(probably Friday morning) and then remain open on the
Sunday afternoons. Council expressed agreement with
this proposal.
d. City Manager Arnold noted that there has been a request
by the Downtown Merchants Association to close off the
100 and 200 blocks of Remington Street and to use the
Remington Street parking lot for a week mid to late
July for their carnival. He stated that there were
some concerns about this and that he had called the
Downtown Merchants Association and told them that he
intended to recommend to the Council that they not
allow this.
Council expressed agreement with Mr. Arnold's recom-
mendation.
e. He then distributed a copy of a letter from City
Engineer Don Parsons to Flatiron Paving Company concerning
the paving at Lemay and Drake. It expresses the concerns
of the City in regards to the delays that have been
experienced. Flatiron has responded that the paving
will be completed within the next couple of weeks.
f. City Manager Arnold suggested that the Mayor adjourn the
present meeting to July 5 and declare the July 3 meeting
cancelled since staff and citizens alike may be taking
the long week -end and there are several items scheduled
which need the full participation of all involved.
g. Councilman Wilkinson asked for clarification on the rea-
son the existing professional liquor establishments
had not been allowed to bid on the concession agreement
at the Lincoln Community Center.
Deputy City Clerk - Wanda Krajicek explained that state
statute prohibits such establishments from holding
multiple licenses and therefore, existing Hotel - Rest-
aurant licensees cannot possess a Tavern license as well.
Report from City Council Members on Committees
a. Councilman Bowling gave a report on the activities of the
1
360
June 20, 1978
corridor committee which had met earlier that day to
appoint members to the citizen's committee. Twenty- t
five persons had applied and he and Councilman St.
Croix felt, after reviewing the applications, that
they were not representative of all the elements in the
corridor and that there were no procedures established
for the appointment of these members. They proposed
to the Steering Committee that members not be appointed
but that a procedure be adopted for appointment dividing
the members by certain categories:
1. large property owners - three members - (dividing
the corridor area into thirds and allowing one
from each third)
2. business - two members (recognizing the difference
between small retail interests and the professional
interests)
3. development interests - two members
4. true agriculturalists - two members (in each case
one from the north and one from the south)
residents - two members
environmental concerns - one member '
citizens - three members (one from Fort Collins,
one from Loveland and one from the general County
area)
This was presented in Resolution form along with the suggestion
that the appointment of a separate chairman for the committee be
preferably from the southern part of the county. This was
adopted and the committee make up will be as stated. They
also suggested that they readvertise along the lines of the
new committee makeup. The Toups Corporation is forming the
public release and the advertisements to be released this
week. The committee will be appointed in approximately two
weeks.
b. Councilwoman Gray gave a report on the recommendations
of the COG committee on municipal participation in the
financial support of COG.
Councilman Wilkinson noted that there had been a
meeting with the Fort Collins - Loveland Water District
to begin negotiations as to how the problems can be
resolved between the various districts and the City of
Fort Collins. Another meeting is expected in about two
361 1
June 20, 1978
' weeks. He noted that two Council members needed to
