The Crossroads sub-area straddles Interstate 25 from U.S.34 to State Highway 392. Several
major developments are planned for this area, including the new Larimer County
Fairgrounds project and private projects promoted by McWhinney Enterprises. Several
public and private entities have joined together to fund a planning study to identify
transportation impacts and solutions for the area. The North Front Range Transportation and
Air Quality Planning Council(NFRT&AQPC)is providing coordination and administration
for the study. Ordinance No. 61, 2000, which was unanimously adopted on June 6, 2000,
appropriates the City of Fort Collins contribution,as well as the unanticipated revenue from
the other entities, into a project managed by the NFRT&AQPC.

General Fund for Police Seizure Activity.
State statutes specify that the proceeds from such seizures are to be used for law enforcement
purposes, and require that the governing body (City Council) of the seizing agency (Police
Services)appropriate these proceeds to supplement the seizing agency's budget or forfeit the

proceeds to the general fund of the State of Colorado. The Colorado Supreme Court and
United States Supreme Court have consistently upheld the constitutionality of these statutes.
Ordinance No. 62, 2000, was unanimously adopted on First Reading on June 6, 2000.
10. Second Reading of Ordinance No. 63, 2000, Appropriating Prior Year Reserves in the
Capital Proiects Fund and in the Sales and Use Tax Fund for Transfer to the Canital Projects
Fund to be Used for the City's Pavement Management Program
At the April 13, 2000 Council Finance Committee meeting, the Transportation Funding
Advisory Team presented a report concerning the options for closing the funding gap to the
Pavement Management Program (street overlays and reconstruction) as well as addressing
the other transportation maintenance needs, including the traffic signal system project,that
are not currently addressed. At the May 23, 2000 meeting, the Finance Committee
recommended an option that will address the funding for transportation maintenance needs
with the least financial impact on the General Fund,and one that,overall,would not require
additional sales tax on Fort Collins' residents. The recommended funding plan will address
the current funding gap and maintain full funding of the Pavement Management Program as
well as addressing the traffic signal system project along with other transportation
maintenance needs.
This Ordinance, which was unanimously adopted on First Reading on June 6, 2000, is the
first step of the fending plan.
11. Second Reading of Ordinance No 64 2000 Appropriating Unanticipated Revenue in the
Capital Projects Fund and Authorizing the Transfer of Appropriations from the Street
Oversizing Fund and the Conservation Trust Fund to the Canital Projects Fund for the Taft

north to W.C.R. 38E. The Fort Collins-Loveland Water District also has planned to install
a 36"waterline along this portion at Taft Hill Road. Staff is working in conjunction with the
FCLWD to consolidate these improvements into one construction contract. Ordinance No.
64, 2000, was unanimously adopted on First Reading on June 6, 2000, and authorizes the
appropriation of funds from the Street Oversizing Fund prior year reserves and transfer of
appropriations from the Street Oversizing Fund and Conservation Trust Fund for the Taft

Year Reserves in the Transportation Services Fund forthe Local and Regional Transportation
Demand Management Programs and the Regional Vanpool Program.
These dollars will be used by the Local and Regional Transportation Demand Management
Programs to promote the use of alternative transportation among both city and regional
residents.The dollars contributed by the 410 reserves are from efficiency savings in the 1999
VanGo program that resulted in surplus revenue. This Ordinance was unanimously adopted
on First Reading on June 6, 2000.
13. Second Reading of Ordinance No.66,2000,Amending Chapter 26 ofthe City Code Relating
to Fees for Raw Water Requirements for the Water Utility.
This Ordinance,which was unanimously adopted on First Reading on June 6,2000,increases
the cash rate charged developers for satisfaction of raw water requirements from $3,500 to
$4,500 per acre foot. The cash rate,which is adjusted periodically to reflect the current price
of raw water,is also the basis for a surcharge paid by nonresidential customers for water used
in excess of their annual allotment.
14. Second Reading of Ordinance No. 67,2000,Authorizin the City to Grant a Non-Exclusive
Access and Drainage Easement to Dr. Larry R. Magnuson.
Ordinance No. 67, 2000, was unanimously adopted on First Reading on June 6, 2000,
granting a non-exclusive access and drainage easement to Dr.Larry R.Magnuson. Granting
this easement to Dr.Magnuson results in the loss of three or four parking spaces at the Senior
Center parking lot. As compensation for this temporary loss, and for the access easement,
the easement provides that the parking lot developed for the clinic property will be available
for use by Senior Center patrons after the clinic's regular hours.
This Ordinance has been amended on Second Reading to provide additional flexibility in the
event the clinic expands its hours of operation, Dr. Magnuson will pay the City the annual
fair market value of the access easement. If Dr. Magnuson is unable, after using his best
efforts,to acquire an access easement on the adjoining south property once it develops, he
will be able to make his temporary access easement on the Senior Center property a
permanent access easement by paying the fair market value of the easement to the City.
15. Items Relating to the Kendall-Harmony Annexation.

Expansion Fund for Improvements Relating to the Provision of Library Services
Council previously authorized certain capital improvement expansion fees, including a fee
for library capital improvements. These fees are found in Chapter 7.5,Article II of the City
Code. This article provides that the expansion fees may only be spent on improvements
identified in the Capital Improvements Plan for library services. The Library Board's long-
range capital improvement plan was adopted by Council in 1998 and became part the City's
Comprehensive Plan. Staff has planned to use a portion of this money to buy books and
materials for the library system,and these funds,in the amount of$250,000 are appropriated
for this purpose by adoption of the Ordinance. In 1998, $268,000 was appropriated to
purchase books and other library materials.

tabular format; (2) designing and developing a brochure on the City's early flood warning

increasing the public's understanding and ability to react to natural disasters.

21. First Reading of Ordinance No 76.2000 Appropriating Unanticipated Grant Revenue in the
General Fund for the Startup and Operation of the State Welcome Center.
With an intergovernmental agreement, the City contracted with Colorado State University
for visitor center space at the Environmental Leaming CenterNisitors Center to the south
of Prospect Road, approximately one-quarter mile west of Interstate 25. The City, in its
effort to welcome and attract visitors to Fort Collins through the efforts of its convention and
visitor services contractor,the Fort Collins Convention and Visitors Bureau(CVB),will use
the space for the Fort Collins Welcome Center. The CVB,in addition to promoting tourism
activity, will operate the Welcome Center.
The Colorado Tourism Board established in CRS 24-32-1304 is empowered to operate state
welcome centers under CRS 24-32-1305(1)(c)and(f). The Board has determined that it will
be efficient and effective to contract for the operation of the Welcome Center in Fort Collins
by contracting with the City of Fort Collins. It is anticipated that the Department of Local
Affairs will issue an additional grant for operation of the Fort Collins Welcome Center for
their fiscal year beginning July 1, 2000.
22. First Reading of Ordinance No. 77,2000,Appropriating Proceeds from the Issuance of City
of Fort Collins, Colorado, Wastewater Utility Enterprise, Sewer Revenue Bonds, Series
2000, Dated July 1, 2000, in the Aggregate Principal Amount of $5,665 000 in the
Wastewater Utility
The Board ofthe Wastewater Utility Enterprise will be considering at its next meeting,which
is scheduled to take place after the regular June 20, 2000, Council meeting, Ordinance No.
3, of the Board of the Wastewater Utility Enterprise, which authorizes the issuance of City
of Fort Collins, Colorado, Wastewater Utility Enterprise, Sewer Revenue Bonds, Series
2000,Dated July 1,2000,in the Aggregate Principal Amount of$5,665,000. The Bonds will
be issued to fund odor control systems for the Mulberry and Drake Water Reclamation
Facilities as well as an ultraviolet disinfection system at the Mulberry plant and sewer relief
and realignment in connection with the Locust Street Outfall Stormwater Project. The
passage of Amendment 1 (the TABOR Amendment) by the Colorado voters in 1992,
required the City to form enterprises in order for its utilities to be able to issue municipal
bonds without an election. Since that time, all utility bonds have been issued by the
appropriate utility enterprise. However,the City Charter grants only the Council the power
to appropriate funds. Therefore, this action by the Council is necessary in order to
appropriate bond proceeds for the Wastewater Utility.Authorizing the issuance of the bonds
and appropriating the proceeds are both necessary to complete the bond transaction.

23. First Reading of Ordinance No. 78, 2000,Authorizing the Transfer of Appropriations from
the Transit Fund to the Capital Projects Fund to be used for the Final Design and

the northern hub for Transfort/Dial-A-Ride. With these transit center improvements, in
conjunction with the Mason Street Transportation Corridor conceptual design, this facility
will become a premier multi-modal operation serving the civic center and the entire
downtown. The City has verbally committed to rent two bus spaces and office space at the
transit center to the Texas,New Mexico, Oklahoma Coaches. Inc. (TNM&O) for its over-
the-road bus operations. It will also provide public waiting areas for all passengers and
office space for the Fort Collins SMARTTrips staff. The freight depot's architectural
features will be maintained to exemplify the historical nature of this facility and site

Harmony Road and Timberline Road, the Street Oversizing Program is scheduling road
widening and intersection improvements. The two developments; Poudre Valley Health
Systems South Campus and the Harmony Village commercial development (Cinemark
Theatres)require widening of Harmony Road and Timberline Road. In addition to widening,
there will be intersection improvements to add double left turn lanes, landscaped medians,
bike lanes and sidewalks. Rights-of-way for three corners of the intersection have been
acquired through development dedication.

right-of-way along these parcels to widen Timberline to current standards. Although the
City could wait until redevelopment to obtain the right-of-way, street improvements need
to take place immediately to adequately handle the anticipated traffic in the developments
under construction. There has been much interest by developers in assembling and
redeveloping these parcels, however, no firm proposals have been submitted.
26. Resolution 2000-84 Authorizing the City Manager to Submit the 2000-2004 Fort Collins
Housina and Community Development Plan to the Department of Housing and Urban
Development.
The City of Fort Collins Consolidated Housing and Community Development Plan was
undertaken as a requirement of the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development
(HUD) in order to qualify for federal Community Development Block Grant and HOME
funds. While the Plan was drafted for this purpose,it reflects the goals and objectives of the
City's Affordable Housing Policy and the 1999 Priority Affordable Housing Needs and
Strategies. The Consolidated Housing and Community Development Plan describes the
process used to develop the plan, provides a strategic plan for meeting the housing and
community development needs of the community and lists the activities which the City will
undertake to address the needs expressed in the Plan. Upon adoption of the Consolidated
Housing and Community Development Plan by the City Council,HUD will receive the Plan
for review. The City will be allocated FY2000 CDBG and HOME funding once the Plan is
