all members of the general public on the same terms and conditions,at an established price,

School District Pertaining to the Land Dedication and In-Lieu Fee Requirements Contained
in Such Agreements.
Since 1998, the City of Fort Collins has collected a fee-in-lieu of land dedication for both
Poudre School District and Thompson School District. These fees allow a residential
developer to pay a school site fee to the School Districts rather than to dedicate a parcel of
land to the District for development of future schools. The ability of the school districts to
require land dedication is provided under State of Colorado Statute.

PAGE 7
non-exclusive utility easement and a temporary construction easement on a City-owned

Construction Easement over City Property to the Boxelder Sanitation District for the Purpose
of Extending Sanitary Sewer.
In 1999, Boxelder Sanitation District acquired a deed of perpetual easement along the
western edge of the Vangbo property (a 2005 Natural Resources Timnath Community
Separator purchase, east of the Boxelder Plant across I-25) from the previous owner. The
easement was acquired in anticipation of the construction of a sanitary sewer line on the east
side of I-25. At the same time the District acquired a temporary construction easement 30
feet in width and adjacent to the perpetual easement. This temporary construction easement
was for a period of one year with a one year extension. The project has not yet been
constructed and the temporary ryconstruction easement ha
s expired.
The construction of the sanitary sewer line is now planned to begin in the summer of 2006.
The construction will take place in the existing perpetual easement area, however because
the original term of the temporary construction easement has expired,Boxelder has requested
a 30 foot wide construction easement for a period of two years. No trenching or installation
of permanent facilities will be done within the temporary construction easement area.
Staff has determined that the temporary easement is not in an area that is ecologically
sensitive and the disturbed land can be easily restored. Vegetation along the proposed
easement alignment consists of a smooth brome dominated pasture. Restoration of the
easement area will utilize grass mixes reflective of existing vegetation.
25. First Reading of Ordinance No. 113, 2006, Authorizing the Conveyance of a Permanent
Drainage Easement on Pelican Marsh Natural Area for the Provincetowne Third Filing
DeveloRment.
The proposed permanent,non-exclusive drainage easement consists of a 50-foot wide area
on Pelican Marsh Natural Area that extends up to approximately 73 feet in length (2,937
square feet) and outlets into an existing 200 foot drainage easement already located on the
Natural Area. The channel to be constructed within the proposed easement is designed to
convey 25 cubic feet per second("cfs")and will consist of side slopes of 4:1(four horizontal
feet to one foot of vertical increase), a depth of 1 foot, and a 2-foot bottom width.
The proposed easement is in an area of reestablished native vegetation. Staff has determined
that impacts to this area can be restored. Reclamation of these easement area will utilize
grass mixes reflective of existing vegetation.

Landmark designation for the Reinholt/Mitchell House. The building is judged to be both

Regarding Fort Fund Disbursements.
The guidelines for the Cultural Development and Programming and Tourism Programming
accounts (Fort Fund) provide a three-tiered funding system. Organizations may apply for
grants from these accounts to fund community events. Tier#1 was established as an annual
programming fund for organizations whose primary purpose is to present three or more
public events annually. These groups may apply for funding from Tier#1 each April. Tier
#2 allows organizations that are not eligible for Tier#1 support to apply for funding of events
that are not fund-raising in nature and do not generate more than $5,000 in proceeds after
expenses. Tier#3 allows organizations that are not eligible for Tier#1 support to apply for
funding of events that generate more than $5,000 in proceeds after expenses and are fund-
raising in nature. Applications for support from Tier #2 and Tier #3 are accepted each
January and June.
Disbursements from funds in the City's Cultural Development and Programming and
Tourism Programming accounts as shown on Exhibit "A" to the Resolution were
recommended by the Cultural Resources Board at its regular meeting of June 28, 2006.

its terms. Match funding was appropriated in the Cultural Services Department budget by
Ordinance No. 132, 2005, which authorized the 2006 City expenditure budget.

33. Resolution 2006-073 Adopting a Real Estate Resale Provision for Community Development
Block Grant(CDBG).Home Investment Partnership(HOME).and Affordable Housing Fund
Loans.

Development Block Grant(CDBG)and Home Investment Partnership(HOME)federal grant
programs,and the Affordable Housing Fund for the acquisition of land and/or buildings(real
estate) for affordable housing programs/projects and providing for, or improving public
facilities. Funds are allocated as deferred,due on sale,zero-interest loans with a five percent
(5%) simple interest loan to be repaid if the real estate is ever resold. Staff and the CDBG
Commission propose an expansion of the current City policy to include a Real Estate Resale
Provision that would protect City resources from projects that fail to be completed and are
resold at a profit of more than five percent.
34. Resolution 2006-074 Authorizing the City Manager to Enter Into an Intergovernmental
Agreement with the Colorado Department of Transportation for the Provision of

USC §5310: Elderly Individuals and Individuals with Disabilities. In the BFO process,
accepted Offer #521: Paratransit Vehicle Replacement acknowledged this application
process and match requirements.
The match ratio is higher than 20% due to the Colorado Department of Transportation's
required vehicle acquisition process. All grantees use the same bid, already compiled by
Colorado Department of Transportation staff. Dial-A-Ride vehicles utilize safety and vehicle
features different than those outlined in the Colorado Department of Transportation bid,and
therefore are at additional cost.

Regional Library District.

proposed District, to decide whether or not to participate in the District [C.R.S. §24-90-
106(1)], and to consent to the County paying the costs of the election,rather than requiring
the petitioners to post a bond to cover those costs [C.R.S. §24-90-107(3)(c)(I1)]. This
Resolution approves the City's participation,in the event the District is formed,and consents
to the County paying the costs of the election.

B. Resolution 2006-078 Creating a Southwest Enclave Annexation Transition
Committee.
This Resolution would create an Annexation Transition Committee.Transition committees
will be required by law for large enclave annexations initiated after September 1,2006. Even
though the resolution initiating this particular annexation is being considered by the Council
before September 1, creation of such a committee shows a continued City commitment to
communicate effectively with enclave property owners. The annexation transition committee
will serve as an information conduit between the City and enclave residents. The Committee
will be comprised of two City staff employees,two Larimer County staff employees and five
citizens who reside, own property or operate a business within the enclave area. The
resolution gives the City Manager the authority to appoint the City staff members and the
citizen members of the Committee.

Plan. (10 minute staff presentation— 1 hour discussion)
The Fort Collins-Loveland Municipal Airport MasterPlan is a policy document that assesses
needs and proposes physical improvements to accommodate future aviation needs at the
airport. The Fort Collins-Loveland Airport has been in continuous operation since its
construction in 1964. Overall Master Planning had been completed for the airport,but hasn't
been updated since 1993. The Federal Aviation Administration requires periodic updates to
the master plan as a condition of eligibility for Federal grants. The plan represents a
compendium of potential improvements based on assumptions about the ongoing and future
uses. The document does not commit the City to fund or undertake any of the listed items.
Those decisions may be made by the Council in the future.
Terms of the agreement between Loveland and Fort Collins to jointly operate and improve
the airport state that the two cities have joint policy making authority on airport matters.
The Master Plan Update has been conducted under the direction of the Cities of Fort Collins
and Loveland,with financial assistance from the Federal Aviation Administration(FAA)and
the Colorado Department of Transportation Division of Aeronautics.
