To: Mayor and City Council
From- R. F. Boos, City Manager
Subject: First National Bank Parking Request
We have met with representatives of the First
National Bank on at least two
occasions, and have studied their request and problem.
Fundamental principles that
pro-
vided a framework within which the matter was reviewed
were as follows:
A. The primary public function of streets is
lation of vehicles.
to provide for movement or
circu-
B. "Drive -In" or "Drive -up" type businesses should provide for "storage" or
"backing up" of vehicles on private property.
C. Permitting use of the street right-of-way for "Drive -In" or "Drive -up"
storage of vehicles for a Particular business would establish a precedent „
which might not be in t he public interest or compatible with the basic "public
purpose of the streets to provide for traffic movement.
In regard to t he particular bank problem presented, that of "Drive -up" traffic
backing into Oak and Howes Streets, it is recommended that:
1. Curb parking be changed from diagonal to parallel on the south side ofthe
200 block on Oak.
2. The Pfirst National Bank re -design the entranceto their "Drive -Up" windows
and widen the alley to provide additional "Drive -Up" storage on their own
property and overflow peak storage in the alley.
Changing from diagonal to parallel parking on the south side of Oak Street would
provide 12 curb parking spaces in place of the current 26 diagonal parking spaces, a loss
of 14 curb parking spaces and permit two moving lanes of traffic on the south side of Howes
Up'eeet. The customers, but could onal lcoulddoesootemporariilyuld not until Permanently serve as a storage lane for bank "Drive

An alternative plan was prepared by Mr. Hudspeth that might ble in the
future. This suggests vacating the albJ south of Temple prove workablecourt as there would be no parti
cular "public" need for the alley if the bank develops parking on both sides of the alley In

The following recommendation from the Water Board was presented by Mr. Ward
Fischer, President:
The Water Board of the City of Fort Collins has completed several months of
Study aided by the services of engineers W. W. Wheeler and Associates and J. T. Banner &
Associates, and submits its recommendations which are summarized and which are discussed
in greater detail in the following report.
SUMMARY OF RECOMMENDATIONS
1. Immediate construction as follows:
A. 40,000 feet of 12 inch to 42 inch distribution system mains, submains and
accessories.
B. 15 million gallon per day treatment plant located in Soldier Canyon above the
Cityfs existing clear water storage reservoirs.
C. Rehabilitation and enlargement of old Soldier Canyon clear water reservoir.
2. The retaining of J. T. Banner & Associates as engineers and consultants for t he
designing and supervision of the above projects.
3. Financing by a $3,200,000.00 bond issue.
4. An increase in water rates, accompanied, however, by a more equitable assessment,]
the proceeds of which will be used only for payment of the above and other existing water
bond issues, operation and maintenance and enlargement of the system and acquisition of new
water rights. Metering of all water is not recommended.
SUPPORTING FINDINGS AND DATA
1. Physical Construction:
A. Distribution system: During peak demand periods, the pressures in a number of
locations, particularly in the Southwest portion of the City, are less than half
of what should be considered the desirable minimum distribution system pressure.
This lack of pressure will be compounded by the considerable development expect -
ed in this area. The proposed additions are to remedy the existing inadequacies
and to provide for an expected additional population of about 45,000 in the area
south and southeast of the area presently developed. The existing situation must
be remedied, and it would be false economy to fail to provide for future growth
at this time.
Without detailing all,secondary mains, the primary mains proposed for future
construction are as follows:
1) 42 inch line from Soldier Canyon Reservoir southeast to LaPorte and then
east on LaPorte Avenue to Overland Trail.
2) 42 inch line south on Overland Trail from LaPorte Avenue to Mulberry
Street.
3) 42 inch line east on Mulberry Street from Overland Trail to Taft Hill Ro
4) 42 inch line south on Taft Hill Road from Mulberry to West Prospect.,
5) 36 inch line east on Prospect from Taft Hill Road to Shields Street.
6) 36 inch line south on Shields Street from Prospect to Stuart Street.,
extended west.
7) 30 inch line east on the line of Stuart Street extended west to College
Avenue.
S) 24 inch line off above 30 inch line south either along C & S Railroad
right of way or south on College Avenue about 2,200 feet.
9) 20 inch line from above 24 inch line south to Drake Road.

12 inch line east on Mulberry
Street from Smith to Riverside.
11) 12 inch line on Riverside from Mulberry to LeMay Avenue.
12) 12 inch line on LeMay from Riverside to Elizabeth.
- B. Treatment facilities: The City's existing water treatment plant has a capacity of�
about 19.5 million gallons per day. The tramsmission lkes therefrom have a capa-
city of about 17.5 million gallons per day, which capacity is barely sufficient
to meet the City+s summer water needs. Additional facilities for water treatment
are obviously required.
I
The Board has considered and rejected the proposal to expand the present treatmen
plant on the Cache La Poudre River for two reasons:
1) The increased expense of distribution lines to that rather remote spot, and
2) The possibility of the inundation and abandonment of such plant in the event
of construction of the Grey Mountain Reservoir now under study by the U. S. Bureau of Reclamation.
The Board instead recommends construction of a 15 million gallon per day plant
in Soldier Canyon above the City's existing reservoirs. This has the advantage of extremely
short transmission lines as well as ready access tothe City+s Colorado -Big -Thompson water
stored in Horsetooth Reservpir.
This plant, together with the existing plant, will supply. sufficient water to
serve a population of over 58,000. persons withwa
out additional clear ter storage capacity
except that herein proposed.
C. Storage: The City's old Soldier Canyon Reservoir was constructed in 1926 and
requires extensive repair to make it fully useful even up .
It is recommended that it should be rehabilitated, to its present capacity
