First Reading of Ordinance No. 092, 2010, Authorizing the Conveyance of a Portion of City Property in Exchange for
a Parcel of Land Along the Spring Canyon Ditch Outlet Pipe.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
This Ordinance authorizes a land exchange between the City of Fort Collins and McCreek, LLC,who is the owner and
developer of McClelland's Creek PD & PLD, 5th Filing. McCreek, LLC is the owner and developer of Outlot D,
McClelland's Creek PD&PLD,5th Filing(the"Development Property"). The City Stormwater Department owns a tract
of land just east of the Development Property(the"City Property"). In 2009, City staff coordinated with the developer
to install a pipe in the area of the Spring Canyon Ditch due to recurring overflow and seepage issues. The pipe
installation required the construction of a berm. The City would prefer to own and manage the entire berm area. The
City and developer have agreed to exchange property so that the new property boundaries followthe edge of the berm.
BACKGROUND / DISCUSSION
The low flow channel of McClelland's Creek flows across the Development Property and the City Property into the
Spring Canyon Ditch. The ditch runs on the south side and parallel to the creek. The City and the developer recently
coordinated to install a pipe to replace the open ditch to address overflow and seepage issues, which resulted in a
berm. The City would prefer to own and manage the entire berm to insure that the area is maintained in a fashion that
is acceptable to the City Stormwater Department. Therefore, the City and developer have agreed to exchange
property so the new property boundaries follow the edge of the berm and are clearly defined in the field. The exchange
would involve the conveyance of 1,635 square feet of property from the City to McCreek, LLC and the conveyance of
9,315 square feet of property from McCreek, LLC to the City.
FINANCIAL / ECONOMIC IMPACTS
There will not be any monetary exchange with this conveyance. McCreek, LLC facilitated the construction of the pipe
improvements by covering the expenses related to the pipe construction. Given that the City already owns the
adjacent property,ongoing management costs associated with the acquired land is expected to be fairly low. The site
will require weed control only as the berm is a natural feature and will be managed as an open space area.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends adoption of the Ordinance on First Reading.
