FORT COLLINS CITY COUNCIL FROM:• Alan Krcmarik
SUBJECT:
Second Reading of Ordinance No. 97, 2001, Authorizing the Sale of Real Property to Tidal
Wave Car Wash, LLC
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends adoption of the Ordinance on Second Reading.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
Responding to the rapid growth of the early 1980s, the City established partnerships with several
development companies and issued special improvement district bonds to make public
improvements in several areas of the City. The eventual owners of the properties were to pay off
the bonds through special assessments. In the mid to late 1980s, the City experienced a sharp
drop in demand for housing units and many of the development companies decided to not to pay
the special assessments. The City continued to make payments on the bonds with funds
transferred from the General Fund. The City also proceeded to foreclose on the property and
eventually received title to the properties. The two parcels in Ordinance No. 97, 2001, (the City
parcel and the Johnson parcel) comprise a 0.87-acre property located at the northwest corner of
JFK Parkway and the Troutman. The buyer has offered a payment that will pay the City a net
amount of $82,602.52, substantially higher than the amount estimated ($37,900) in the 1993-
feasibility study. This Ordinance, which was unanimously adopted on June 5, 2001, authorizes
the sale of the City's ownership interests in the properties, which is legally two separate parcels
represented by two separate sales agreements.
