AGENDA ITEM SUMMARY
SKYVIEW SOUTH GENERAL
IMPROVEMENT DISTRICT NO. 15 3
SUBJECT
First Reading of Ordinance No. 002, Determining and Fixing the Mill Levy for the Skyview South General Improvement
District No. 15 for the Fiscal Year 2012 and Directing the Secretary of the District to Certify Such Levy to the Board
of Commissioners of Larimer County.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The sum of $24,615 is anticipated to be collected from the mill levy of 10.0 mills for fiscal year 2012. The total amount
will be used to maintain and repair roads in the Skyview subdivision.
BACKGROUND / DISCUSSION
In 2009, the City annexed Phase 3 of the Southwest Enclave Annexation. The area annexed included the entire
Larimer County Skyview South General Improvement District No. 15 (GID No.15). A map of the GID No. 15 is
attached. The County organized GID No. 15 in 1997. Pursuant to Section 31-25-603, C.R.S., since the annexation
involved the entire improvement district, GID No.15 became a City-operated district and Council acts as the ex officio
Board of Directors of the District. Under state law, the City is required to set the mill levy for the District and to certify
the amount of the levy to Larimer County. This Ordinance continues the establishment, as in years past, of a levy of
10.0 mills.
FINANCIAL / ECONOMIC IMPACTS
This Ordinance sets the Skyview South General Improvement District No. 15 mill levy, which will generate about
$24,615 at 10.0 mills for fiscal year 2012.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends adoption of the Ordinance on First Reading.
