Motion was made by Councilman Troxell, seconded by Councilman Kruchten, that this
resolution be adopted. Roll was called resulting as follows: Ayes: Councilmen
Carson, Troxell, Kissock, Kruchten and Bennett. Nayes: None. The President declared
the motion adopted.
,ay The City Manager brought up a matter of paving Lemay Avenue from the north boundar
line of Parkwood Development south and requested approval to reduce the roadway from 60
feet to 55 feet in order to save six large cottonwood trees that are in the neighborhood
of 90 years old. It is the wish of Mr. Everitt of Parkwood to pave the E� of Lemay
which would extend the paving 30 feet from the curb line. Mr. Everitt has agreed to put
a 4 foot side walk along the east side of this development at the time that the curb and
gutter is being installed. Lemay Avenue is set up to be a 80 foot street with the road-
way being 60 feet, this would allow for four lane traffic to each way, with a two foot
center strip. After some discussion regarding this matter and wring to cooperate with
the developer in improving the street along his development, motion was made by Councilman
Troxell, seconded by Councilman Kruchten, that the Council approve the plan as presented
by the City Manager, leaving the six cottonwood.'. trees undisturbed. Roll was called result-
ing as follows: Ayes: Councilmen Carson, Troxell, Kissock, Kruchten and Bennett.
Nayes: None. The President declared the motion adopted.
The Mayor referred to the report of his Citizens Advisory Committee on tYe budget
in which they stated that they felt it would be well to make the committee a permanent
committee in order that they maybe able to start investigation and study at the start of
the budget season and probably during the early part of the year, projects worth while
being included in the budget. He suggested that the committee at this time be: appointed
for one year. Motion was made by Councilman Bennett, seconded by Councilman Kruchten, that
this be refereed to the City Attorney to prepare a resolution creating a perma'n-.ent committee
and their term of office, and the members appointed thereto. Roll was called resulting
as follows: Ay es: Councilmen Carson, Troxell, Kissock, Kruchten and Bennett. Nayes:
None. The President declared the motion adopted.

9-a6 The Mayor advised the Council, in a letter filed by the Secretary of the Human
Relations Committee, regarding the last meeting held by the commission in which they re-
quested several items of procedures for the commission to work under. One berg a special
housing code for the City of Fort Collins. The City Manager advised the Mayor and Council
that the Colorado Law School had this problem before them and were doing research under a
grant of $5,000.00 and nothing should be done regarding same until the research study has
been completed and report made.
Another item in which they asked a code of ethics regarding rental projects
under which they could operate. This was discussed and it was the opinion of the members
of the Council that this should be an effort of the commission to prepare such a code
and present same to the City Council for their approval. The Mayor requested the City
Manager to prepare a lettertn the :'.commission in answer to these problems, for him to sign.
Motion was made by Councilman Bennett, seconded by Councilman Kissock, that the
Council adjourn. Roll was called resulting as follows: Ayes: Councilmen Carson,
Troxell, Kissock, Kr.0 chten and Bennett. Nayes: None. The President declared the
motion adopted, and the Council adjourned.
