Survey Grant Project.
RECOMMENDATION:

FINANCIAL IMPACT:
The City has received a grant in the amount of$28,500 from the Colorado Historical Society. The
grant requires matching funds in the amount of $9,500, which have been appropriated in the
Advance Planning Department.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
This grant was dependent upon matching funds of $9,500, previously reappropriated from the
Advance Planning Department's 2000 budget for the Buckingham, Alta Vista and Andersonville
Neighborhoods Historic Survey and Contexts. The funds from the department's reappropriation and
the funds from the Colorado Historical Society's matching grant will be combined into the
Buckingham, Alta Vista and Andersonville Neighborhoods Survey Grant fund.
Accepting this grant will enable the Fort Collins Advance Planning Department to conduct an
intensive-level historic survey of approximately 150 properties,and the preparation of three historic
contexts, on the sugar beet industry,the Germans from Russia in Fort Collins, and the Hispanics in
Fort Collins. This project is critical to identifying those historic structures eligible for City and State
preservation incentives,such as Colorado State Tax Credits and the City's Landmark Rehabilitation
Loan Program. Historic structure surveys were one of the objectives identified in City Plan and in
the Historic Resources Preservation Program Plan.
