The Horsetooth Road and Timberline Road Intersection Improvements Project will construct safety
and congestion mitigation improvements at the intersection. The project is planned to begin
construction in the summer of 2014 and be completed in the fall of 2014. The project budget consists
of both federal and local funds. To construct these improvements, the City will need to acquire
certain property interests adjacent to the project area. The acquisitions include right-of-way and
temporary easements from thirteen property owners. Timely acquisition of the property is necessary
to meet the anticipated construction schedule. Staff fully intends to negotiate in good faith with all
affected owners, and is optimistic that all property negotiations can be completed prior to the start of
the Project. Staff is requesting authorization of eminent domain for all property acquisitions for the
Project to comply with federal acquisition requirements. Eminent domain action will be used only if
such action is deemed necessary.

Police Services currently uses a repurposed 1993 transport van, previously retired from Dial-a-Ride in
2003, for the primary response to major vehicle collisions within the city. The purpose of this vehicle
is to provide full capability for securing a large traffic collision scene, marking lane closures,
establishing detours, and creating a safe work zone for both officers and citizens. The current vehicle
being used is well beyond its useful service life, and needs to be replaced in order to maintain quality
scene response services by the City. Police Services has identified a suitable replacement vehicle,
manufactured by Lynch Diversified Vehicles. The new scene response vehicle will cost $171,476, to
be funded from the Camera Radar Reserve account.

Landmark designation of the Mark and Effie Miller Property at 315 Whedbee Street.
12. Resolution 2013-089 Finding Substantial Compliance and Initiating Annexation Proceedings for
the Mail Creek Crossing Annexation.
The purpose of this item is to initiate the annexation process for Mail Creek Crossing. A written
petition has been submitted requesting annexation of 39.608 acres located on the north side of
Zephyr Road, approximately 1,450 feet east of South Timberline Road (just east of Bacon
Elementary). The property is located within the Fossil Creek Reservoir Area Plan. In accordance with
the Intergovernmental Agreement with Larimer County, adopted in 1999, properties within the Fossil
Creek Reservoir Area receive their land use approvals in the County and are annexed into the City
prior to construction.
Mail Creek is a residential development containing 137 single family dwelling units; the requested
zoning for this annexation is LMN - Low Density Mixed Use Neighborhood. The surrounding
properties are currently zoned LMN to the south (Timbers Development), north (Kechter Crossing),
and east (proposed Kechter Farm development). To the west are LMN zone districts (Bacon
Elementary) and MMN - Medium Density Mixed Use Neighborhood (vacant land).
This annexation request is in conformance with the State of Colorado Revised Statutes as they relate
to annexations, the City of Fort Collins Comprehensive Plan, and the Larimer County and City of Fort

of an Introduction Section.

specifically stating that the policies are developed per the Charter to provide guidance to staff, and
that the Council has the ability to approve exceptions to the policies under extraordinary
circumstances, if it determines that doing so is in the best interests of the City. Financial Services
and the City Attorney think the best place for this clarification is in the introduction section of the
Financial Management Policies document and not within each individual policy.

Eliminate the Requirement that all Board and Commission Members be Registered Voters.
