Motion was made by Councilman McMillan, seconded by Councilman Carson, that this
resolution be adopted. Roll was called resulting as follows: Ayes: Councilmen Johnson,
Carson, McMillan, Bennett and Kruchten. Nayes: None. The President declared the motion
adopted.
Representatives of the Downtown Merchants Association were present in reference
to the installation of the tree planters in the downtown section of Fort Collins. A letter
from Cedar Falls, Iowa, in reference to the effect of these planters on the sidewalks in
the downtown section, were presented to the Council, but in allowing this program, Cedar
Falls took away the parking on the blocks containing the planters. This removal of the
the
parking at the curb was not/intention of the Downtown Merchants Association in this pro-
gram, and there was some discussion as to the set back of these planters in order to allow
the over hanging of the cars over the curb so that they would not hit the planters them-
selves. Councilman Carson recommended that the association make a trial period of these
on a block or two before setting up the whole program as outlined in their previous communi
cation. Mr. Demmus Harvey stated that it was not feasible to do this on a trial basis as
the cost of producing these planters would be about $400.00 per block and that, if the pro-
gram was to be carried out, it should be done on a overall basis as requested. Councilman
Carson also stated that he had investigated some of these planters in Denver, and that they
not
had/been maintained, the trees were dead and the planters themselves were trash containers
such as cigarette butts, cigar stubs, and other miscellaneous trash. He stated that if
the Downtrown Merchants Association put this program in force, that it would be necessary
for them to have complete maintainance at all times as to keeping the planters clean and
the trees in a live condition. This matter of maintainance was stressed also by Councilman
McMillan and that any program for approval of the Council for the installation of these
planters must contain a full maintainance program. Mr. Harvey was also advised that it
would be necessary to amend two ordinances of the C1'y of Fort Collins in order to permit
this installation. The City Manager, in remarking on this program, stated that he recom-
mended that we cooperate with the Downtown Merchants Association in the allowance of the
approval of the
installation of these planters, but this approval be subject to the/final plan by the City
Manager, City Engineer and the Planning Director before being presented to the Council for
their action thereon.

was made by Councilman Johnson, seconded by Councilman Carson, that the City purchase the
J share of Pleasant Valley and Lake Canal water from R. B. Broad at the price of $2400.00
per share. Roll was called resulting as follows: Ayes: Councilmen Johnson, Carson, .
McMillan, Bennett and Kruchten. Nayes: None. The President declared the motion adopted.
The City Manager stated that an amendment should be made on the sewer rate and
recommended that the sewer rate to% be charged on metered water be 65% of the water rate
and requested this be referred to the City Attorney to prepare the necesgary amending -ordi-
nance. Motion was: made by Councilman Carson, seconded by Councilman McMillan, that the
recommendation of the City Manager be accepted and the matter be referred to the City Attor
to prepare the necessary ordinance to effect same. Roll was called resulting as follows:
