The City and CDOT staff are recommending an amendment to the IGA to clarify the jurisdictional limits of the two entities. In addition, the City has agreed with CDOT to PAGE 4 assume operation and maintenance responsibility for the traffic signal at the intersection of Harmony Road and the Harmony Transit Center.

Resolution 2008-115 Authorizing the Lease of a Portion of City -owned Property at 300 North Howes Street to Friends of the Fort Collins Bike Program, Inc.. for up to Two Years as Part of the Recycled Bike Project. On December 18, 2007, City Council approved leasing 222 LaPorte Avenue to the Friends of the Fort Collins Bike Program, Inc. ("FFCBP"). This site is the former home of the Poudre Valley Creamery ("PVC"). The leased premises for the FFCBP include a garage at the west end of the site, the stand-alone building at the south of the parking lot and an area at the northeastern corner of the facility. The area at the northeastern comer of the building has been used by FFCBP for bike storage only. They have been utilizing the garage and the stand-alone building for the bike repair work. Due to structural deterioration in the northeast portion of the building, the City has been advised not to allow use in this area. As a result, staff has worked with the City's Bicycle Coordinator and the FFCBP to identify another area that could be used as bicycle storage. One block to the north is a City building, located at 300 North Howes, that is currently being used as storage but has room available for bikes. Since the building is only one block from the current site, this building became the optimum choice. The property at 300 North Howes is part of the Option Agreement with Penny Flats for its residential/commercial plans for this block. Staff has talked with Penny Flats about the possibility of leasing a portion of this site until it is ready to move forward with the option that contains the property at 300 North Howes Street. Penny Flats has agreed to allow the City to lease the property. Staff requests that Council approve a lease for the eastern bay, containing 1,306 square feet, of the building at 300 North Howes Street for the FFCBP. FFCBP will continue its use of the remainder of the leased premises at the PVC site. PAGE 8 22. Resolution 2008-116 Authorizing a Two -Year Extension of the Grazing Lease with Folsom Grazing Association on Soapstone Prairie Natural Area. Soapstone Prairie Natural Area is currently leased to the Folsom Grazing Association for livestock grazing; the existing lease will expire in December 2008. The lease extension will continue grazing on the property through 2010 with modifications to the current lease. The lease modifications were made in order to manage for the conservation targets identified in the Soapstone Prairie Natural Area Management Plan (adopted September 2007). Modifications include essentially limiting grazing to the eastern portion of the property, combining all cattle into a single herd, and reducing the allowed number of animal unit months (AUMs) from 3,600 to 2,500 (2,500 AUMs is approximately equivalent to 500 cows with calves grazing over a 5-month period). Grazing management will utilize high intensity, short duration grazing to more closely mimic historic grazing patterns of native ungulates (e.g., elk, deer, pronghorn antelope and bison). 23. Resolution 2008-117 Approving the Exemption to the Use of a Competitive Process for the Purchase of a 15KV Electrical Switchgear Power Control Center. Fort Collins Utilities will be purchasing one new 15KV electrical power control center for installation at the new Portner Substation, located on Trilby, between South College and South Lemay Avenue. The Portner Substation will supply power to southeast Fort Collins and allow for load transfer from the Harmony Substation. It is scheduled to be energized Fall 2009. The switchgear will be purchased directly from the manufacturer, Powell Electrical Manufacturing Company for a total price of $2,129,015. 24. Hearing and Resolution 2008-118 Approving the Programs and Projects that Will Receive Funds from the Federal Home Investment Partnership (HOME) Program Grant and the City° s Affordable Housing Fund. The Resolution will complete the fall cycle of the competitive process for allocating City financial resources to affordable housing programs/projects. 25. Resolution 2008-119 Adopting a Revenue Allocation Formula to Define the City of Fort Collins' Contribution to the Poudre Fire Authority Budget for the Year 2009 for Operations and Maintenance. This Resolution establishes a Revenue Allocation Formula between the City of Fort Collins and the Poudre Fire Authority to contribute funding for maintenance and operating costs of Poudre Fire Authority. 26. Resolution 2008-120 Adopting the City's 2009 Legislative Policy Agenda. Each year the Legislative Review Committee (LRC) develops a legislative agenda to assist in the analysis of pending legislation. The Legislative Policy Agenda is used as a guide by Council members and staff to determine positions on pending legislation and as a general reference for state legislators and congressional delegation. PAGE 9 27. Resolution 2008-121 Adopting an Updated Policy Concerningthe e City's Investments. The 2008 Updated Investment Policy includes the following significant changes: Allow for Interfund Borrowings by entities that cannot access the market at viable levels to sustain their existence. Cap this type of activity at no more than 25% of the overall governmental share of the portfolio. Based on current investment holdings, this would limit the amount available in the program to $47.5 million. The utilities investment portfolio would not be available for this program unless a recognized nexus existed. 2. Extend the average duration of the overall portfolio from a current limit of 2 years up to 3 years. This change would allow the City the flexibility to take advantage of a steepening yield curve while still maintaining it focus on the short-term liquidity needs of the organization. Add Certificate of Deposits Account Registry (CDARs) to the list of eligible investments. In the past, the City has not utilized certificates of deposit as it was too cumbersome due to the $100,000 FDIC limit per account per entity. CDARs is an investment vehicle created during the past year that networks certificates of deposits at several banks and as a result provides up to $50 million of Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) coverage to a single accountholder. This will allow the City to have the safety of FDIC backing and the ability to invest millions with a single bank based on a competitive bid versus only $100,000 in the past at whatever rate the bank was offering. 28.

(Options A & B) (staff: Lucinda Smith; staff presentation - 10 minutes; 1 hour discussion) In May 2008, City Council adopted Resolution 2008-051, setting new goals to reduce Fort Collins greenhouse gas emissions 20% by 2020 and 80% by 2050, both when compared to 2005 emissions levels, and states the "intent" to reduce community -wide greenhouse gas emissions by the end of 2012 to a level not to exceed 2,466,000 tons CO2e. A Climate Action Plan has been developed that identified actions that will help the community meet these reduction objectives. The Plan is based largely on the recommendations of the Fort Collins Climate Task Force who worked for over a year to seek public input, evaluate and filtered ideas, and consider cost-effectiveness. The Plan is based on existing successes, focuses on actions within local control, engages all sectors of the community and addresses all emission sources. Actions to reduce greenhouse gas emissions result in multiple other benefits for the community and support other priority policy objectives for the City of Fort Collins. The Resolution would accept the proposed Plan as a blueprint for achieving the 2020 reduction goal, without committing budget resources to any specific action at this time. Two versions of the Resolution are presented: Option A approves the Plan as presented at the October City Council work session with the incorporation of additional measures as described in an Addendum prepared by staff in response to the work session discussion; Option B approves the Plan as presented at the October work session, without the additional measures prepared by staff in response to the work session discussion. 33.
