EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The purpose of this item is to authorize the City Attorney to file a petition in Larimer County District Court to exclude properties annexed into the City in 2013 from the Poudre Valley Fire Protection District (the “District”) in accordance with state law. The properties will continue to receive fire protection services from the Poudre Fire Authority. STAFF RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends adoption of the Resolution. BACKGROUND / DISCUSSION Property that is within a fire protection district continues to be subject to the District’s property tax assessment even after annexation to the City until the property is officially excluded from the District. Exclusion must occur pursuant to state law (C.R.S. Section 32-1-502). The law allows the City to seek exclusion of annexed property from the district so that the property is not subject to property tax assessment by both the District and the City. In 2013, the City annexed three areas within the territory of the Poudre Fire Protection District, the legal descriptions of which are set forth in Exhibit “A” to the proposed Resolution. Consistent with the state law, this proposed Resolution authorizes: 1. the City Attorney to file a petition on behalf of the City to exclude the annexed properties from the District, and 2. the City Manager to enter into an agreement with the District for the continuation of fire protection services within the annexed properties. - 1 - RESOLUTION 2014-010 OF THE COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF FORT COLLINS AUTHORIZING THE INITIATION OF EXCLUSION PROCEEDINGS OF ANNEXED PROPERTIES WITHIN THE TERRITORY OF THE POUDRE VALLEY FIRE PROTECTION DISTRICT WHEREAS, in 2013, the City annexed three properties within the territory of the Poudre Valley Fire Protection District (the “District”); and WHEREAS, C.R.S. Section 32-1-502 requires an order of exclusion from the district court to remove annexed properties from special district territories; and WHEREAS, under the provisions of C.R.S. Section 32-1-502(2)(a), an order excluding property from the boundaries of a special district requires the governing body of the annexing municipality to agree, by resolution, to provide the services previously provided by the special district to the area described in the petition for exclusion from and after the effective date of the exclusion order; and WHEREAS, from the date of such annexations, the City has provided municipal services to said properties, including fire services; and WHEREAS, the residents within the properties described on Exhibit “A” attached hereto and incorporated herein by this reference (the “Annexed Properties”) have paid ad valorem property taxes to the District for fire protection services prior to exclusion, and subsequent to exclusion, will instead pay ad valorem property taxes to the City for City services, including fire protection; and WHEREAS, it is the desire and intent of the City Council to reflect by this Resolution its willingness to provide fire protection services to the Annexed Properties and to exclude the Annexed Properties from the District; and WHEREAS, the City Council wishes to properly exclude the Annexed Properties from the District in accordance with law and to allow for the provision of fire protection services to such properties by the Poudre Fire Authority, which is an independent entity providing fire protection services to both the District and the City pursuant to an intergovernmental agreement. NOW, THEREORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF FORT COLLINS, as follows: Section 1. That the City Council hereby agrees that the Annexed Properties should be excluded from the District. Section 2. That the City Council hereby authorizes the City Attorney to file a petition in the Larimer County District Court pursuant to C.R.S. Section 32-1-502 for an order to exclude the Annexed Properties the boundaries of which are described on Exhibit “A”. - 2 - Section 3. That the City Council hereby agrees to provide fire protection service, through the Poudre Fire Authority, to the Annexed Properties. Section 4. That the City Council hereby finds that a plan for the disposition of assets or continuation of service is unnecessary as the Poudre Fire Authority has in the past served, and continues to serve, both the District and the City. Section 5. That the City Manager is authorized to enter into an agreement with the District for the continuation of services for the Annexed Properties, which agreement shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit “B” attached hereto, subject to such modifications as the City Manager may, in consultation with the City Attorney, deem necessary to protect the interests of the City. Passed and adopted at a regular meeting of the Council of the City of Fort Collins this 4th day of February, A.D. 2014. ____________________________________ Mayor ATTEST: __________________________________ City Clerk EXHIBIT “A” Page 1 of 6 HANSEN FARM ANNEXATION A parcel of land located in the East Half of Section 7, Township 6 North, Range 68 West of the 6th Principal Meridian, County of Larimer, State of Colorado, and being more particularly described as follows: Considering the East line of the Northeast Quarter of said Section 7 as bearing South 00º00'53" East and with all bearings herein relative thereto: COMMENCING at the East Quarter Corner of said Section 7; thence, South 89º59'49" West, 30.00 feet to a point on the westerly right-of-way line of South Timberline Road, said point being the POINT OF BEGINNING; thence along said westerly right-of-way line, South 00º05'58" West, 150.36 feet to a point on the northeasterly line of Johnston Annexation; thence along said northeasterly line the following 4 courses and distances: North 86º55'07" West, 81.60 feet; thence, North 70º20'07" West, 286.00 feet; thence, North 39º29'33" West, 64.42 feet; thence, South 89º59'49" West, 314.41 feet to the West line of that tract of land described in Reception No. 20100066406, Larimer County Records; thence along said West line the following 16 courses and distances: North 18º53'29"East, 280.05 feet; thence, South 80º52'47" East, 140.66 feet; thence, North 43º24'32"East, 68.46 feet; thence, North 45º20'54" West,193.08 feet; thence, North 57º52'49" West, 191.24 feet; thence, North 48º06'28" West, 109.43 feet; thence, North 63º34'52" West, 198.72 feet; thence, North 49º45'28" West, 330.86 feet; thence, North 47º12'15" West, 783.31 feet; thence, North 55º07'00" West, 318.91 feet; thence, North 74º09'59" West, 184.15 feet; thence, North 03º02'18" West, 367.61 feet; thence, North 05º59'16" West, 117.72 feet; thence, North 11º32'10" West, 221.70 feet; thence, North 02º51'46" West, 122.76 feet; thence, North 09º31'29" West, 49.42 feet to the southerly line of Willow Springs Annexation; thence along said southerly line the following 18 courses and distances: North 89º11'07" East, 307.33 feet; thence, North 88º58'07" East, 235.40 feet; thence, South 73º22'53" East, 83.20 feet; thence, South 46º25'53" East, 80.40 feet; thence, South 51º11'53" East, 67.70 feet; thence, South 33º06'53" East, 44.10 feet; thence, South 30º14'53" East, 82.50 feet; thence, South 03º55'53" East, 86.50 feet; thence, South 21º48'53" East, 44.90 feet; thence, South 55º53'53" East, 54.20 feet; thence, South 74º38'53" East, 367.20 feet; thence, South 67º46'53" East, 227.00 feet; thence, South 54º53'53" East, 152.80 feet; thence, South 71º51'53" East, 121.50 feet; thence, South 68º22'53" East, 243.40 feet; thence South 68º41'53" East, 208.00 feet; thence, South 55º18'53" East, 82.70 feet; thence, South 52º11'53" East, 234.62 feet to a point on the westerly right-of-way line of South Timberline Road; thence along said westerly right-of-way line, South 00º00'53" East, 190.54 feet; thence, North 89º40'37" East, 60.00 feet to a point on the East right-of-way line of South Timberline Road; thence along said East line, South 00º00'53" East, 536.20 feet; thence, South 89º43'20" West, 60.00 feet to the West right-of-way line of South Timberline Road; thence along said West line, South 00º00'53" East, 771.38 feet to the POINT OF BEGINNING.
