City Council Work Session
July 28, 2020
(After the Adjourned Council meeting, which begins at 6:00 p.m.)
• CALL TO ORDER.
1. Manufactured Housing Rezoning Update. (staff: Ryan Mounce; 10 minute presentation; 40 minute
discussion)
The purpose of this item is to review and discuss issues rel ating to the potential rezoning of
properties to the forthcoming Manufactured Housing (M-H) zone district, including the influence of
existing land use policy and a possible extension of the manufactured housing redevelopment
moratorium.
2. Natural Areas and Local Agriculture. (staff: Julia Feder, Zoe Shark; 10 minute presentation; 30
minute discussion)
The purpose of this item is to discuss potential conservation agriculture projects on lands acquired
and managed by the City’s Natural Areas Department (the Department). Pending Council’s advice
and feedback, in coming months staff will return to Council for its review of several leases associat ed
with potential conservation agriculture partnerships. This item will provide an overview of
conservation agriculture and a description of how conservation agriculture can help the Department
improve its land stewardship. It will discuss how the Department could align agricultural management
practices with its mission and support the City’s goals related to local, s ustainable agriculture.
A conservation agriculture approach would represent a shift to the current land management
methodology on several natural areas. This shift will better reflect the 2014 Natural Areas Master
Plan as compared to current agricultural operations (monocropping and haying). Moreover, as one
of the largest landowners in and around Fort Collins, the City can play a role in help ing the
community achieve its goals related to the local food system as articulated in City Plan.
