First Reading of Ordinance No. 110, 2003 Appropriating Unanticipated Revenue in the General Fund to Be Returned to the Fort Collins Housing Authority to Fund Affordable Housing Related Activities.

First Reading of Ordinance No. 111. 2003, Authorizing the City to Enter into a Revocable Lease with the Cortina Homeowners' Association for Portions of Public Right-of-Way for Underground Storage. If adopted, this Ordinance would authorize the Mayor to enter into an agreement with the Cortina Homeowners' Association for a revocable lease of portions of public right-of-way to be used as underground storage for a proposed building on the southwest corner of the intersection of Canyon Avenue and Howes Street. 20. First Reading of Ordinance No. 112, 2003, Amending Article III of Chanter 17 of the City Code Pertaining to Offenses Against Property. Like the State,the City of Fort Collins has maintained laws in its Code against theft of rental property,concealment and criminal mischief. Currently,under State law, such crimes may be considered either a misdemeanor or a felony, depending upon the amount of dollar loss. Under the City Code such crimes are misdemeanors if the value of the property stolen, concealed or damaged is less than$400. These crimes under the State statutes are considered misdemeanors if the value of the property is less than $500. This Ordinance amends Sections 17-37, 17-38, 17-39 to raise the value limit of property to $500, which will be consistent with State Statutes relating to theft of rental property, concealment and criminal mischief. 21. First Reading of Ordinance No. 113, 2003 Amending Chapter 1 of the City Code Relating to General Provisions and Repealing Identical Sections Contained Elsewhere in the Code Under State law, the principles of complicity and corporate liability apply to all criminal offenses. The City Code applies these principles only to the offenses contained in Chapter 17 and Section 12-99(e), relating to the sale and use of tobacco products. There are other offenses under the City Code, for example, sales tax and licensing violations, environmental regulation violations, fire code and noise violations, which cannot presently be prosecuted under the principles of complicity or corporate liability. City staff recommends that the City of Fort Collins ® "�""•° °"�•�•° PAGE 7 complicity and corporate liability principles be applied to all violations of the City Code to be consistent with state law and to ensure effective enforcement of all code provisions. If the Code is amended to make the complicity and corporate liability provisions applicable to all offenses under the Code,the provisions currently contained in Sections 17-4, 17-5, 17- 6, and 12-99(e) would be redundant and should be repealed. 22. First Reading of Ordinance No. 114, 2003, Authorizing Amendment#1 to the Long Term Lease of Property at the Fort Collins-Loveland Municipal Airoort with Cole Smith DBA Signal Construction, for the Construction of an Aircraft Hangar. The Cities entered into a ground lease agreement with Cole Smith on July 17, 2001, for the construction of an aircraft storage hangar. It has been discovered that the legal description for the property built upon is incorrect. The amendment to the lease incorporates the correct legal description. 23. First Reading of Ordinance No. 115, 2003, Amending Section 2-238 of the City Code Pertaining to the Functions of the Golf Board. The purpose of this Ordinance is to amend the functions of the Golf Board, as contained in the City Code,to reflect the fact that it is the City Manager,rather than the City Council,who sets the annual fees and charges at City-owned golf courses. One of the functions of the Golf Board is to make recommendations regarding annual fees and charges at City-owned golf courses. Section 2-238(4) of the City Code states, that the Golf Board's recommendation in this regard is to be made to the City Council. However,in 1997, the City Council amended the City Code to authorize the City Manager to establish these kinds of fees. Therefore,it is appropriate to amend the functions of the Golf Board so that the Golf Board's recommendation regarding fees is forwarded to the City Manager rather than the City Council. This Ordinance would accomplish that change. 24. First Reading of Ordinance No. 116,2003 Amendin the e City Code Relating to Candidates for Municipal Election. This Ordinance: (1) amends the deadline for a nominated candidate for municipal election to withdraw his or her candidacy;and(2)amends the deadline for a person to file an affidavit of intent with the City Clerk indicating that such person desires to be a write-in candidate and is qualified for the office.

Hearing and First Reading of Ordinance No. 117, 2003, Amending the Zoning Mao of the _City of Fort Collins by Changing the Zoning Classification for That Certain Property Known as the Whitham Property Rezoning_ This is a request to rezone 160.3 acres located on the south side of East Vine Drive between North Timberline Road('/2 mile to the west) and Interstate 25 ('/2 mile to the east). The site is currently vacant and is in the T - Transition District. The requested zoning for this property is LMN-Low Density Mixed-Use Neighborhood. The surrounding properties are zoned T -Transition in the City of Fort Collins (to the west), I- Industrial in both the City of Fort Collins and Larimer County (to the east), I - Industrial in Latimer County (to the south), and FAI -Farming in Latimer County (to the north). 26. First Reading of Ordinance No. 118, 2003, Amending Article III of Chanter 12 of the City Code. Reizardiniz Smoking in Public Places and Places of Employment to Authorize Administrative Regulations. On December 17, 2002, the City Council adopted on Second Reading Ordinance No. 181, 2002,repealing and reenacting Article III of Chapter 12 of the City Code,regarding smoking in public places and places of employment. The new City Code provisions enacted in Ordinance No. 181, 2002, go into effect on October 1, 2003. Since the adoption of Ordinance No. 181, 2002, City staff has been working with business establishments and employers to provide assistance in understanding and planning for compliance with the new smoking restrictions. In addition, City staff has been working to inform members of the general public about the upcoming effective date of the new restrictions, and to respond to questions. In the course of these outreach efforts, it has become apparent to staff that the adoption of administrative regulations to address specific questions of interpretation and enforcement will enable staff to provide more consistency and certainty both to regulated establishments and employers and to the general public. Consequently, staff is proposing that the City Council modify the City Code language that will go into effect on October 1 so as to specifically authorize the City Manager to establish administrative regulations. Theproposed language requires that notice of the regulations be published and further requires that any regulations be placed on file with the City Clerk so as to be available to the public. The Ordinance also eliminates an existing provision from Ordinance No. 181, 2002, authorizing the establishment of administrative regulations but only to interpret the terms "independently ventilated" and "physically separated".

Resolution 2003-090 Reestablishing a Telephone Exchange Access Facility Chargeand a Wireless Communications Access Charge for the Latimer Emergency Telephone Authority Effective January 1. 2004. The Larimer Emergency Telephone Authority (LETA) was created in 1990 pursuant to C.R.S. Section 29-11-101, et. seq.,by an intergovernmental agreement between the City of Fort Collins and nineteen other governmental entities in Larimer County. The telephone exchange access facility charge of fifty cents ($.50) per month became effective January 1, 1991,by approval of the City Council. This fee remained the same each year by annual approval of the LETA Board,until 1998 when the LETA Board decreased the fee by 10% to the current forty-five cents ($.45). The wireless communications access charge was first established at forty-five cents ($.45) commencing on April 1, 1998. At the July 2,2003 LETA Board meeting, the Board approved a telephone exchange access facility charge and a wireless communications access charge effective January 1,2004,each at the rate of forty-five cents ($.45) per month. These surcharges to telephone subscribers are necessary to continue to adequately fund the Emergency 911 telephone service in the City of Fort Collins through 2004. By approving this Resolution, the Council will be authorizing telephone and wireless telephone service providers to collect the telephone exchange access facility charge and wireless communications access charge. 28. Resolution 2003-091 Authorizing a Grant Aueement With the Board of the Great Outdoors Colorado Trust Fund for the Development by Fort Collins Soccer Club of a Second Phase of the Soccer Complex Northeast of Fort Collins. The development of the first phase of a soccer complex northeast of Fort Collins on County Road 54,just west of Interstate 25 was achieved by the Fort Collins Soccer Club in 1999. The rapid growth of Fort Collins and the increased interest in soccer continues to create a high demand for a dedicated soccer facility. The new facility helps curtail overcrowding and overuse of City and Poudre School District fields. The new soccer facility increases the opportunities for youth to enjoy soccer and will minimize conflicts with other groups competing for the same space in parks and schools. The City Parks and Recreation staff is very supportive of the effort by the Fort Collins Soccer Club to develop its complex. The soccer complex at build-out will have 13 full sized soccer fields,a 5,000-seat stadium field, headquarters building, picnic areas, restrooms, and landscaped and irrigated turf. The complex will also include space for other types of recreation events such as balloon festivals, model airplane clubs, and scouting events. The second phase of the soccer club complex,funded in part with this GOGO grant,will add about 33 acres of irrigated turf for soccer fields at the complex site. The Soccer Club is City of Fort Collins ® ybnpd an nnycbdyMy PAGE 10 retaining professional soil and seeding experts for the site design to ensure the irrigation system, soil preparation and seed mixes result in a site that minimizes water usage. 29.

City of Fort Collins ® F` d PAGE 12 B.

The property is currently designated in the Harmony Corridor Plan for Basic Industrial and Non-Retail Employment uses. The proposed amendment would permit on the property, in addition to the current list of employment land uses, a Lifestyle Shopping Center. In addition, certain amendments are proposed to the Harmony Corridor Standards and Guidelines, which implement the Plan, including adding new definitions, along with a few additional design standards and guidelines that establish uses,size and character. Ordinance No. 103, 2003 and Ordinance No. 104, 2003, were adopted 6-0 (Councilmember Kastein withdrew) on First Reading on July 15, 2003. 36. Items Relating to Street Names for New Arterial and Collector Streets. (30 minutes) A. First Reading of Ordinance No. 119,2003,Amending Section 24-91 of the City Code Adding Categories of Names to the List of Street Names to Be Used for Selecting Names for New Arterial and Collector Streets. Presently,Section 24-91 of the City Code requires arterial and collector streets to be named only from a list of names of citizens that the City would like to honor posthumously. The Ordinance would amend this section of the Code to also allow such streets to be named after natural areas, natural features, historic and/or well-known places other names that Council may approve. This change reflects the direction that City Council provided during the public hearing regarding the renaming of five arterial streets in the southeast quadrant of the City back in May of 2000. Comments from Council indicated that, while honoring notable citizens is laudable, natural areas and features and place names should be considered as well. This Ordinance provides that opportunity. B. Resolution 2003-094 Updating the list of Names for Arterial and Collector Streets. The northeast quadrant of the City is rapidly developing. Existing developments are building-out and new subdivisions and annexations are in the approval process within the Mountain Vista and East Mulberry Area Plans. From this growth, there are now segments of six County Roads that are located entirely within the City boundaries. Five of these six are "section line"roads and, as such, are classified on the Master Street Plan as "Arterials" or "Minor Arterials." One is a segment of State Highway One. In addition, there are four proposed collector streets that need to be properly named. City of Fort Collins ® e:°°d°'...... °•'°°' PAGE 13 Section 24-91 of the City Code requires that all new arterials and collectors be named from the list of street names approved by the City Council. The list is adopted by the City Council and names can be added only by Resolution of the City Council. In Spring of 2000, City Council updated the list to delete nine names that had been previously selected and to add seven new names. Of these seven, four were selected to re- name existing County Roads in the southeast quadrant of the City. The Board of County Commissioners then approved an action to continue these newly selected names to the limits of the Growth Management Area. This Resolution represents a continuation of this re-naming effort. With the support of the northeast area residents,Poudre Fire Authority,U.S.Postal Service and Latimer Emergency Telephone Authority,staff recommends that new propernames be given to six County Roads in recognition of the emerging urbanization of the Growth Management Area and to comply with City Code. 37.

The Subarea Plan includes an inventory of existing conditions;overview of corridor issues; and,vision, goals,principles and policies and plans for land use,transportation,community appearance and design, economic sustainability, housing, environment, natural areas and open lands, and growth management. In addition, the Plan describes a variety of implementation actions that should be taken if the Subarea Plan is to be successful. A series of proposed amendments to the City's Land Use Code are also being recommended for adoption in conjunction with the Subarea Plan. The planning process included extensive opportunities for comment by the public, property owners, City and County boards and commissions, and City and County elected officials. 38.
