Colorado, Wastewater Utility Entemrise, Sewer Revenue Refunding Bonds Series 2005, dated October 3, 2005, in the Maximum Aggregate Principal Amount of$11,900,000, in the Wastewater Utility The Board of the Wastewater Utility Enterprise (the 'Board") unanimously adopted Ordinance No. 4, of the Board of the Wastewater Utility Enterprise, on First Reading on September 6, 2005, which authorizes the issuance of City of Fort Collins Colorado, Wastewater Utility Enterprise, Sewer Revenue Refunding Bonds, Series 2005, Dated October 3, 2005, in the Maximum Aggregate Principal Amount of $11,900,000 (the 'Bonds").

The City will be paying off higher cost bonds with new bonds that will have lower interest rates. The final rates will be determined by selling the Bonds at a competitive sale on October 3, 2005. The City Charter authorizes the City PAGE 3 to form enterprises to issue municipal revenue bonds and, since 1992,all utility bonds have been issued by the appropriate utility enterprise. However, the Charter grants the Council the power to appropriate the funds. Therefore, this action by the Council, which was unanimously adopted on First Reading on September 6, 2005, is necessary in order to appropriate the bond proceeds, approved by the Board, for the Wastewater Utility. Authorizing the issuance of the bonds and appropriating the proceeds are both necessary to complete the bond transaction. 8. Second Reading of Ordinance No. 097, 2005, Authorizingthe he City Manager to Extend the Term of the Agreement Between the City and CH2M Hill, Inc. for Engineering Services at the Fort Collins-Loveland Municipal Airoort. There is an urgent need to conduct design work for airport improvements which will be completed during next summer's construction season. In order to obtain the most favorable construction costs it is necessary to solicit bids over the winter months. Due to the complexity of the project the design work needs to commence as soon as possible and will take approximately 6 months to complete. The current Agreement with CH2M Hill expires this October 31,2005. In order to start this work now and continue work beyond the Agreement expiration term it is necessary to extend the term of the Agreement for one year to October 31, 2006. The funds necessary to complete the design fees have already been adopted in the 2005 Airport budget; 95%of the costs are recovered from an existing FAA Grant and 2.5%of the Airport's match will come from a Grant from the State of Colorado. Ordinance No.097,2005,was unanimously adopted on First Reading on September 6,2005. 9.

The property to be leased and a related utility easement are located in City Park, north of the ballfields. Council has approved similar leases for Sprint, VoiceStream, and Cricket in the same area. Through a series of negotiations, staff has developed a proposed Option and Structure Lease Agreement that meet the needs of the City and Cingular.Ordinance No.098, 2005, was unanimously adopted on First Reading on September 6, 2005. 10.

The Office of Transportation Safety, Colorado Department of Transportation,has received funding from the Federal government for DUI sobriety checkpoints throughout the state between Memorial Day and Labor Day this year. Fort Collins Police Services was asked to participate by holding four checkpoints during this period. The checkpoints were staffed by off-duty officers working overtime and the grant funds will pay for the overtime costs. Any funds not used for the checkpoints will be used to augment regular DUI enforcement during the summer through the use of off-duty officers. 12. First Reading of Ordinance No. 105, 2005, Appropriating Unanticipated Revenue in the General Fund for E911 and Emergency Medical Dispatch Systems at Fort Collins Police Services Dispatch Center. LETA collects a monthly fee from all county telephone users and allocates those funds to purchase and maintain equipment used to process E911 phone calls;train users;and dispatch appropriate Emergency Services Providers. In 2003, LETA developed a budget allocation formula for each Public Safety Answering Point (also known as Emergency Services Dispatch Center or "Center") based on the number of Dispatchers and the number of E911 phones calls received in each Center. Based on the formula,LETA provides the funds to the individual Centers to pay expenses. The 2005 amount based on 2004 expenditures for Fort Collins Police Services is $10,391. In the same manner, a formula was developed for each Center for Emergency Medical Dispatch ("EMD") based on the number of dispatchers and the number of EMD calls handled by the Center. The 2005 amount based on 2004 expenditures for EMD based on the formula for Fort Collins Police Services is $44,826. The total amount to be appropriated from these two budgets is $55,217. PAGE 5 13. Items Relating to Appropriating Unanticipated Revenue in the General Fund for the Latimer County Drug Task Force. A. First Reading of Ordinance No. 106,2005,Appropriating Unanticipated Revenue in the General Fund for the Larimer County Drug Task Force. B. First Reading of Ordinance No. 107,2005,Appropriating Unanticipated Revenue in the General Fund for the Larimer County Drug Task Force. Fort Collins Police Services applied to the Edward Byrne Justice Assistance Grant program on behalf of the Task Force for Federal Grant monies to help fund the investigation of illegal narcotics activities in Larimer County. The Task Force includes Fort Collins Police Services, Loveland Police Department, Larimer County Sheriff's Department, Drug Enforcement Administration, and the Colorado State University Police Department. The grant award for$92,526 will be used for rental and operational costs at the Task Force off-site location and for the purchase of narcotics from drug dealers by undercover police officers. The grant award for$105,804 will be used to buy supplies and operating costs for the Colorado State University detective, for the purchase of narcotics from drug dealers by undercover police officers and to pay for overtime costs incurred by drug task force operations. These appropriations are not requests to identify new dollars for Police Services 2005 budget, instead they simply appropriate new Federal grant money. 14. First Reading of Ordinance No. 108, 2005, Amending the Fort Collins Land Use Code Regarding Annexation of Uses Not Legally Permitted. City Council approved Ordinance No. 070, 2005 on July 5, 2005. This ordinance enacted numerous Land Use Code amendments that were proposed as part of the Spring 2005 Biannual revisions. One of the amendments in the ordinance clarified the annexation regulations as they pertain to uses not legally permitted in the county. Specifically, the amendment established a maximum two year amortization period for uses not legally permitted that were knowingly allowed to continue by the County. Staff recommended the two year amortization period for uses not legally permitted as a fair and reasonable timeframe in which to allow the illegal use to be abated once the property is in the city. The amendment also contained a stipulation that if the illegal use is the subject of a County initiated zoning or nuisance enforcement action, then the amortization period would end within the time established as a result of the enforcement action or within two years, whichever occurs first. 15. First Reading of Ordinance No. 109,2005,Authorizing the Purchasing_Agent to Enter into an Extension of the Golf Professional Services Agreement at SouthRidge Golf Course for up to Five Additional Years. The existing Agreement with SouthRidge Golf Professional Dale W. Smigelsky, PGA, expires on December 31, 2005. This five-year Agreement was entered into on December 19, 2000, after being awarded through Request For Proposal (RFP) # P-777. As stated in both the RFP documents and the Agreement, "...This Agreement may be extended beyond PAGE 6 the original five (5) year term if performance is satisfactory and subject to City Council approval and negotiation of a mutually acceptable extension agreement". 16. Emergency Ordinance No. 110,2005,Suspending Enforcement of the Rule Prohibiting More than Three Unrelated Persons From Occupying a Dwelling Unit as Such Rule Applies to Victims of Hurricane Katrina. On September 6, 2005, as a part of the Council's consideration of Resolution 2005-099, which Resolution encouraged local support for the victims of Hurricane Katrina, Council directed staff to prepare an emergency ordinance which would have the effect of suspending the"three-unrelated rule"as it applied to victims of Hurricane Katrina. It was also requested by the Council that this suspension of the "three-unrelated rule" be continued for only one year. This emergency ordinance will suspend for one year the enforcement of the rule which prohibits more than three unrelated persons from occupying a dwelling unit for the limited purpose of accommodating victims of Hurricane Katrina, provided that such victims can show the enforcing officer bona fide evidence that they are persons who were displaced by the hurricane. Since the Land Use Code is the present tool available to the City to enforce the "three-unrelated rule," and since it is anticipated that, in October, Council will be considering a more detailed ordinance containing that prohibition, it was decided to utilize a kind of"moratorium/suspension" as the mechanism whereby the Council's request can be most easily accommodated. Since the Ordinance is only effective for one year, the Ordinance is not of such a permanent nature as to need to be codified,and since it is broadly worded, it will cover both the existing Land Use Code prohibition as well as the new prohibition anticipated to be enacted in October. 17. Items Relating to the East Ridge Second Annexation and Zoning_ A. Hearing and Resolution 2005-100 Setting Forth Findings of Fact and Determinations Regarding the East Ridge Second Annexation. B.

First Reading of Ordinance No. 112, 2005, Amending the Zoning Map of the City of Fort Collins and Classifying for Zoning Purposes the Property Included in the East Ridge Second Annexation to the City of Fort Collins, Colorado. The East Ridge Second Annexation and Zoning represents a follow-up action to bring in a small area of land identified for mitigation purposes for the pond and wetlands as part of the original East Ridge Annexation. This negotiated section of approximately 1/2 acre extended into the adjacent property to the south — triggering the requirement for annexation. Contiguity with the existing municipal boundary is gained along the entire northern boundary which is shared with the south property line of the East Ridge Annexation(152.81) acres). PAGE 7 This is a 100%voluntary annexation for a property located within the Growth Management Area. The property satisfies the requirement that no less than one-sixth of the perimeter boundary be contiguous to the existing City boundary. Combined with the original East Ridge Annexation, the two parcels total 153.3 acres. The recommended zoning is L-M-N, Low Density Mixed-Use Neighborhood District. The rezoning request is consistent with the adopted East Mulberry Corridor Plan. 18.

The proposed Resolution states that it is the City's intent to annex this property and directs that the published notice required by State law be given of the Council's hearing to consider the needed annexation ordinance. The hearing will be held at the time of First Reading of the annexation and zoning ordinances on November 15, 2005. Not less than 30 days prior, published notice is required by State law. 20.

Resolution 2005-104 Finding Substantial Comnliance and Initiating Annexation Proceedings for the Minatta Annexation.

The property is partially developed, containing one existing single-family residence and a portion of the existing Fort Collins- Loveland Water District Pump Station.It is in the FA-1 Farming District in Larimer County. The requested zoning for this annexation is LMN-Low Density Mixed-Use Neighborhood and RF - Residential Foothills. The surrounding properties are currently zoned FA-1 Farming in Larimer County to the north, LMN-Low Density Mixed-Use Neighborhood in the City to the east, RL - Low Density Residential in the City to the south, and RF — Residential Foothills in the City to the west and the south. The proposed Resolution makes a finding that the petition substantially complies with the Municipal Annexation Act, determines that a hearing should be established regarding the annexation, and directs that notice be given of the hearing. The hearing will be held at the time of first reading of the annexation and zoning ordinances. Not less than thirty days of prior notice is required by State law. 22. Resolution 2005-105 Adopting the National Incident Management System Principles and Policies. Since the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001, the Federal Government has adopted policies and procedures to be utilized in the event of a major emergency or disaster. For state and local governments to continue to receive Homeland Security funding they must adopt and agree to use the NIMS incident management system. Homeland Security funding has provided hundreds of thousands of dollars for training, planning, exercises, and equipment over the last few years. The State of Colorado has already adopted NIMS for use with state emergencies. Fort Collins Police and Poudre Fire Authority utilize this type of Incident Management system and have been trained in the use of the NIMS system. Adopting this resolution will require the training of other key City personnel that would be involved in any type of emergency or disaster. By training and utilizing this system, we can be assured that Fort Collins, other assisting agencies, State and Federal agencies would be familiar with and accustomed to the NIMS incident management system in the event of an emergency in Fort Collins. This would improve staffs ability to effectively manage the emergency. Staff believes adoption of this resolution will improve our ability to interact and work with State and Federal agencies that would be assisting Fort Collins in the event of any type of major emergency.

This Resolution ratifies the terms and conditions of the voluntary agreement,which takes effect January 1,2006 and terminates December 31, 2007. This Resolution also approves an agreement with the FOP to settle the pending law suit by stipulating to a judgment which would invalidate the mandatory arbitration and anti-benefit reduction provisions of the Ordinance. 24.
