AGENDA ITEM SUMMARY DATE: May 18, 1999
• FORT COLLINS CITY COUNCIL STAFF: Ron Mills
SUBJECT:
First Reading of Ordinance No. 85, 1999, Authorizing Dedication of Certain Property for Public
Highway to Improve Access to the Larimer County Landfill.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends adoption of the Ordinance on First Reading.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
There will be no consideration since the City is a joint-owner of the landfill and will benefit from
the improvements. All costs associated with the project will be paid for by the County.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
Larimer County plans to construct a new access to the Landfill approximately 700 feet south of the
existing access. In conjunction with the project, additional right-of-way is needed to accommodate
safety improvements in the form of turn lanes and wider shoulders. Some of the property included
in the project(1.05 acres)is owned jointly by the City of Fort Collins,City of Loveland and County
of Larimer; therefore, approvals and signatures are required of each municipality. While the
dedication is not presently needed, it is necessary to clarify future intended use of the land should
the ownership of the adjoining land change.
