EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The purpose of this item is for City Council to consider a resolution authorizing the City Manager to execute a purchase and sale agreement to acquire over 200 public parking spaces. In addition, the Resolution instructs staff to prepare a financing strategy and plan for presentation to City Council late 2016 or early 2017. STAFF RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends adoption of the Resolution. BACKGROUND / DISCUSSION Project Overview Project Description The public-private partnership proposes to construct a 3-level mixed-use parking garage with approximately 322 parking spaces and 3,200 square feet of retail space at the corner of Chestnut and Jefferson Streets - 363 Jefferson Street (the “Project”). The Project will be a public-private partnership between the City of Fort Collin and the developers of the Fort Collins Hotel (Bohemian Companies, McWhinney, and Sage Hospitality - collectively the “Developer”). The garage entry will be on Chestnut Street and the retail spaces will face onto Old Firehouse Alley (Attachment 1). The Project will contain all required vehicle and bicycle parking for the hotel. Parking The Project is designed as a three bay garage with a central ramp for moving between floors (Attachment 3). The central ramp allows for the exterior of the structure on all four faces to have horizontal floors. This construction allows for an efficient use of the available footprint and a structure that addresses the streets and alley with a consistent façade free of the impacts from the required ramps. The structure will be constructed above ground with the exception of a short downward ramp on the first floor. The floor to ceiling height on the ground floor will be higher to accommodate retail space facing the alley. The result is approximately 322 parking spaces over three levels, see Table 1.

The hotel’s parking will include all of the ground floor with the balance of spaces located on the second floor. The remaining spaces on the second and third level will be available for public parking. The ground floor will have limited access for hotel patrons and staff only and will be used for hotel valet and general parking. The remaining hotel spaces will be designated as “Reserved for Hotel Use” using signs on the second floor, see Table 2. The ultimate count may vary some as the van accessible and accessible spaces are divided by user.

Retail The Project includes 3,200 square feet of retail facing Old Fire House Alley that will contain artisan and hotel supporting retailers (labeled as Retail/Office Flex Space on Attachment 3). This retail is located immediately across the alley from the Fort Collins Hotel bar and lobby space and will create an active and vibrant alley. In addition, the project includes the façade improvements for a similar amount of retail along the Jefferson Street structure face (labeled as Potential Retail/Office Flex Space on Attachment 3). This retail will not be constructed during the initial Project. This Jefferson Street facing retail will be reserved for future construction when nearby development has created a more active pedestrian atmosphere along Jefferson Street. The City will be able to drive the timing of this construction through an option specified in the purchase and sale agreement (see the Partnership Section for additional details). Design Considerations The proposed design is a result of a thoughtful context-sensitive approach by the Developer. (Attachment 4) Although the project is outside of the Old Town Historic District, the design team utilized the Old Town Historic District Design Standards to inform the building and site design. In addition, the design team referred to the River District Design Guidelines for Structured Parking 6.25 thru 6.27 for guidance on design. The result is a structure that bridges the industrial character of the River District to the historic character of the Old Town Historic District. The project was reviewed and recommended for approval by the Landmark Preservation Commission (“LPC”) on September 28, 2015 and approved by the Planning and Zoning Board on October 8, 2015. (Attachments 5 and 6) Agenda Item 15 Item # 15 Page 3 Public Benefit Fort Collins provides a high quality of place contributed to by the lively historic downtown and the City’s impressive parks, trails and open space networks. These community assets make Fort Collins an attractive place for both a well-educated workforce and diverse industries. The development of a downtown hotel and the proposed parking structure represent an opportunity to strengthen the existing high quality of place. The Project meets numerous City Plan policy objectives and occurs in the City’s core. Thus, the Project represents an opportunity to achieve not only economic outcomes, but also an opportunity to strengthen the overall community. City Plan Objectives The Project as proposed meets a variety of City Plan objectives, including but not limited to: Economic Health  EH 1.3 - Prioritize Essential Infrastructure/Capital Facilities: Additional parking has been identified through several public outreach efforts including the recent update to the Downtown Plan as a key need. As such, partnering to deliver 216 public parking spaces meets this objective.  EH 4.1 -Prioritize Targeted Redevelopment Areas: The Old Town Historic District and the River District are both Targeted Redevelopment Areas. Addressing the parking need in these areas will help to facilitate additional redevelopment and meet a current community need for parking.  EH 4.2 - Reduce Barriers to Infill Development and Redevelopment: One barrier to redevelopment especially in and near the historic core is the lack of parking to meet user demand. This Project provides 216 additional spaces in an area identified as part of the Parking Plan as needing additional parking. Community and Neighborhood Livability  Policy LIV 3.1 - Commit to Providing Capital Facilities: This objective calls for prioritizing existing deficiencies. As parking remains a deficiency, according to the Parking Plan and public outreach, this project addresses a deficiency in the Old Town area.  Policy LIV 5.1 - Encourage Targeted Redevelopment and Infill: The Old Town Historic District and the River District are both Targeted Redevelopment Areas, addressing the parking need in these areas will help to facilitate additional redevelopment and meet a current community need for parking.  Policy LIV 30.4 - Reduce Visual Impacts of Parking: The Project addresses this objective by providing a context sensitive design to the structure skin that reinforces the historic character of nearby buildings and transitions from the Old Town Historic District to the River District.  Policy LIV 30.5 - Parking Structures: The Project design addresses this objective by providing for retail development along two faces of the structure. In addition, the design utilizes screening to reinforce the historic form of nearby buildings. Finally, the design integrates green walls to provide visual relief and introduce nature in the Project in a creative way.  Policy LIV 32.5- Maintain Visual Character: The context sensitive design was very deliberate and intentional in its efforts to reinforce the historic building pattern through screening and material choice.  Policy LIV 32.6 - Encourage Human-Scale Architectural Elements: The design uses retail and green screening to break-up otherwise lengthy facades to create more pedestrian scale. High Performing Government  Policy HI 4.6 - Work with Private Partners: Working with private partners to develop parking was identified as a key strategy in the Parking Plan as well as fulfills this objective of City Plan. City Strategic Plan The Project as proposed meets a variety of City Strategic Plan objectives, including but not limited to: Agenda Item 15 Item # 15 Page 4  1.10 - Address neighborhood parking issues: The Project address the identified parking need in the Old Town Historic District and River District.  3.7 - Support sustainable infill and redevelopment to meet climate action strategies: The Project supports infill and redevelopment, which by virtue of revitalizing under-utilized land is itself a sustainable effort.  3.10 - Address Downtown parking issues identified in the adopted Parking Plan: The Project directly responds to the adopted Parking Plan by providing 216 public parking spaces in a location identified as a target within that plan. Downtown Strategic Plan (2004) The Project as proposed meets a variety of Downtown Strategic Plan (2004) objectives, including but not limited to: Principle 1: Protect and manage the Downtown retail/entertainment Core  1.1.1 - Encourage long-term parkers, customers, and employees to better utilize existing Downtown parking structures: This Project increases the available supply of downtown parking making access for long-term parking in structures easier.  1.3.1 - Create a Comprehensive parking management plan for the Downtown core: This Project is a direct reaction to the adopted Parking Plan and the action items contained within that plan. Principle 2: Utilize the Energy from the Core to Leverage and Attract New Development  2.3.1 - Develop, manage and operate parking as essential civic infrastructure, and over time create a “Park Once” environment to sustain low overall parking ratios: This Project helps to achieve this objective by increasing the supply of long-term parking within the Old Town Historic District and Riverside District, which will help to facilitate a “Park Once” environment. Parking Plan: Downtown and Surrounding Neighborhoods The Project as proposed meets a variety of Parking Plan: Downtown and Surrounding Neighborhoods (the “Parking Plan”) objectives, including but not limited to: Principle 6: New Parking Infrastructure  Policy 6.3 - Public-Private Partnerships for the Development of New Parking: This objective encourages the use of Public-Private Partnerships (“PPPs”) to increase the supply of public parking throughout the Downtown. This Project leverages a PPP to add 216 parking spaces to the supply of off-street long-term parking in the Downtown area directly responding to this policy.  Policy 6.6 - Downtown River District Parking Needs: This Project’s proximity to the River District allows for the facility to provide some relief to the parking supply issue in that district. Principle 7: Multimodal Access and Urban Design  Policy 7.3 - Structured Parking: This objective encourages the conversion of surface parking into structure parking. The original Project plan called for a surface parking lot to meet the Fort Collins Hotel’s parking need. The use of a PPP encouraged the conversion of that plan from a surface parking lot into a structured parking facility. Downtown Public Parking Demand The Parking Plan includes a Parking Demand Model that provides insights into future parking needs based on existing and future land uses. This model combined with additional staff analysis generated an estimated of the overall demand for additional public parking in the Downtown area. Table 3 (excerpted from the Parking Plan) summarizes the estimate of future public parking demand over a 10-year period. Agenda Item 15 Item # 15 Page 5 Table 3 Future Public Parking Demand: 10 Year Horizon The analysis indicates a demand for approximately 910 spaces over the 10-year horizon with an additional 600 spaces needed to support a proposed 1,500 seat performance hall. Therefore, the Project as proposed meets 24 percent of the projected need for all future public parking demand and 43 percent of the demand from background growth in demand as projected by the Parking Demand Model. The Project as proposed also locates the 216 additional public parking spaces in one of the seven identified target areas within the Parking Plan, as shown in Attachment 7 (excerpted from the Parking Plan). Therefore, the Project aligns with the needs and locations identified within the Parking Plan for additional public parking. Partnership Structure As recommended in the Parking Plan, this Project uses a PPP to deliver additional public parking in the Downtown area. In the proposed partnership, the Developer of the Fort Collins Hotel will construct the Project and when completed the Developer will sell the City 216 parking stalls as condominium space. The process is very similar to the approach used to construct the new Foothills Activity Center and the Counciltree Public Library. In addition, this approach allows for the City to utilize tax-exempt financing. Agenda Item 15 Item # 15 Page 6 Construction and Purchase Agreement City Council is being asked to consider a resolution to authorize the City Manager to execute a Construction and Purchase Agreement (“Agreement”) for the condo(s) associated with over 200 public parking spaces. The main points of the Agreement are summarized below:  The City must give its approval of the final plans and specifications for construction of the parking structure and the Developer’s itemized cost estimate before construction can commence;  The Developer agrees to deed at least 200 parking spaces (currently estimated at 216 spaces) within the parking structure to the City including the right to use the land underlying the Parking Structure and the air rights over the building. The actual number of spaces will determine the City’s final contribution to the project costs. The City will only fund the public parking portion of the structure;  The Developer and the City, at closing, will execute an option agreement that will allow the City, at its discretion, to acquire from the Developer an area of parking on the first floor of the Parking Structure as a separate unit for the construction of retail and in exchange the City would transfer to the Developer a similar number of parking spaces in the public parking area;  Purchase price will be the land cost of ($2,018,835) plus a proportional share of the agreed upon costs for construction but not to exceed a total amount currently estimated at $7,700,000 –the final number will be inserted into the Agreement once Final Plans are complete for the structure.  The City’s obligations under the Agreement to close on the purchase of the condominium units is contingent on the Council’s appropriation of the funds needed for the purchase. NOTE: Not all the attachments to the Construction and Sale Agreement are available at this time. However, many of the attachments to this AIS provide similar information to the missing attachments. For example, the parking structure plans are a draft version of the Final Plans that will ultimately be attached to the Agreement when it is signed. Ongoing Operations and Maintenance A condominium association (the “Association”) will oversee the ongoing operations and maintenance of the structure. The “Condominium Declaration” governing the Association is attached as Exhibit “D” of the Agreement. The current plan calls for City’s Parking Services Department to provide ongoing operations and maintenance of the entire structure with each individual owner (the City and Developer) responsible for the actual parking operations within their individual portion of the project. The Association Board will be responsible for maintaining the structure to a pre-defined and agreed upon standard. Day-to-day decisions will be governed by a simple majority with major capital expenditures, changes to the Association Bylaws and Covenants, and approval of use within the Retail/Office Flex space being subject to super majority decisions. The City will have proportional representation on the board, which will result in the City having approximately two-thirds control of the Association. Timeline The Project is anticipated to be constructed in the following timeline:  November 17, 2015 - City Council considers the Agreement  1st Quarter 2016 - Hotel construction begins using the parking structure site for staging of equipment  2nd Quarter 2016 - Parking Structure construction begins  2016 - Evaluate, identify, and close financing for acquisition  2016 - Finalize an Intergovernmental Agreement with the Downtown Development Authority  1st Quarter 2017 - City purchases the 216 public parking spaces Financial Investment Overview City staff has been evaluating the use of a lease-purchase financing structure that will involve the sale of certificates of participation to fund the acquisition cost of the 216 public parking spaces. Agenda Item 15 Item # 15 Page 7 Project Costs The current estimated Project cost is approximately $11.6 million or $36,000 per stall. This Project cost includes the cost to prepare the site, construct 323 parking spaces, and construction 3,200 square feet of retail core and shell, as shown in Table 4. The parking costs account for 85 percent of the total with retail and site each accounting for between 7 and 8 percent individually. Table 4 Estimated Project Costs by Use Cost Item Stalls Parking Retail Site Total Land $ 1,966,110 $ 52,725 $ - $ 2,018,835 Permit Fees/Development Fees $ 561,153 $ 21,024 $ 42,823 $ 625,000 Soft Costs $ 1,209,845 $ 45,328 $ 92,327 $ 1,347,500 Furniture, Fixtures, & Equipment $ 44,892 $ 1,682 $ 3,426 $ 50,000 Construction Costs $ 6,968,231 $ 261,070 $ 531,769 $ 7,761,070 % of Hard Costs 90% 3% 7% 100% TOTAL $ 10,750,231 $ 381,829 $ 670,346 $ 11,802,405 $ / Stall 322 $ 33,386 n/a $ 2,082 $ 36,653 The total Project cost is split amongst the various owners in the following manner (a) the retail costs are 100 percent apportioned to the Developer, and (b) the remaining parking and site costs are split amongst the Developer and the City based on a pro-rata share. The result is an estimated City cost of approximately $7.1 million or approximately $33,000 per stall, as shown in Table 5. This equates to 62 percent of the costs or just under two-thirds.

The South College Parking Garage on CSU’s campus was priced at $21,000 per space in construction costs. The Project as proposed is estimated to cost approximately $24,000 per space including the retail and $23,000 per space excluding the retail. Therefore, the estimated costs are within 10 percent of the CSU costs on a per space basis. It should be noted that the exterior skin treatment of the Project as proposed provides a significantly greater amount of architectural interest and design features. CITY FINANCIAL IMPACTS Financing Structure and Assumptions The City is currently paying off the Civic Center Parking structure at a cost of $1,115,000 annually. These payments will conclude June 2018. The Downtown Development Authority (“DDA”) has also pledged Tax Increment funds to support repayment of any debt incurred to finance the Project (Attachment 8). This pledge includes up to $300,000 starting in 2019 and continues through 2031. Using the above cost estimates and assuming a tax exempt financing, the annual debt service for the Project could range from $559,000 to $868,000 annually depending on the term of the financing, as shown in Table 6. Starting in 2019 the DDA funds will be available to pay debt service reducing the General Fund contribution to $259,000 to $568,000 annually. The current approach assumes that General Fund reserves fund the debt service in 2017 and 2018 until the Civic Center Parking structure funds and DDA funds become available. Therefore, the total cost to finance the project could range from $5.8 to $6.3 million depending on financing terms. The total DDA contribution could range from $2.4 to $5.4 million depending on the term of the financing. Table 6 Estimated Financing Costs Option 1 Option 2 Term 10 Years $868,000 Interest Rate 2.5% 4.0% Annual Debt Service $868,000 $559,000 Less: DDA Contribution $300,000 $300,000 Annual General Fund Contribution $568,000 $259,000 Total Financing Cost $8,680,000 $11,180,000 General Fund Reserves (2017-2018) $1,736,000 $1,118,000 Total Financing Cost to the General Fund $6,280,000 $5,780,000 There may be other financing needs within the City between now and the proposed acquisition in the first quarter of 2017. Therefore, this financing could be packaged with other needs to create even greater efficiency in financing terms and interest. The above estimate is provided to illustrate the potential costs of financing the Project and should not be considered the final cost. Operating Revenue and Expenses Ground floor retail is proposed along Old Firehouse Alley and is not included as a potential revenue source in Table 7. It is also assumed that there will be no revenue potential from the first deck of parking that represents approximately 108 parking stalls. These estimates are only accounting for annual revenues generated from City managed parking stalls and annual operating and maintenance expenses for a three story parking structure. These estimates do not account for any initial capital investment of tools and equipment required to operate the facility. Finally, it is assumed that the hotel will contribute towards the cost of operations and maintenance on a pro rata share, estimated at $100,000. Therefore, the initial estimate of revenue and expenses shows a slight net gain annually, as shown in Table 8. Agenda Item 15 Item # 15 Page 9 The following revenues and expenses are projected for initial year of operation. It is expected that operating and maintenance expenses would increase over time as the facility ages. Table 7 Projected Revenues for Proposed Parking Structure Revenue Estimated annual hourly revenue new garage $198,000 * Estimated annual permit revenue new garage $42,960 * Estimated Hotel contribution to O&M $100,000 Total Annual Revenue $340,960 Table 8 Projected Expenses for Proposed Parking Structure Estimated Expenses Enforcement $85,000 Standard maintenance/maintenance agreements $100,000 Utilities/phones $20,000 Security $75,000 Professional/technical $7,000 Supplies/Miscellaneous/Banking $15,000 Total Annual Expense $302,000 *Based on approximately 75% capacity hourly/80% permit with 2015 oversell percentages and current pricing. Background on Financing Structures Municipalities generally have (at a high level) three types of securities that can be used to raise funds. 1. General Obligation Bonds (GO): A GO bond is a common type of municipal bond that is secured by a state or local government's pledge to use legally available resources, including tax revenues, to repay bond holders. GO bonds are backed by the full pledge and guarantee of the municipality issuing the bonds. GO bonds are guaranteed largely by the taxing authority of the issuing agency. Because the pledge entails possibly raising taxes to meet future debt service and because GO bonds include a multi-year fiscal obligation, under the current Colorado Constitution, voter approval is required before GO bonds can be issued. 2. Revenue Bonds: A revenue bond is a special type of municipal bond distinguished by its guarantee of repayment solely from revenues generated by a specified revenue-generating entity associated with the purpose of the bonds, rather than from a tax. Unlike general obligation bonds, only the revenues specified in the legal contract between the bond holder and bond issuer are required to be used for repayment of the principal and interest of the bonds; other revenues (notably tax revenues) and the general credit of the issuing agency are not so encumbered. Because the pledge of security is not as great as that of general obligation bonds, revenue bonds may carry a slightly higher interest rate than G.O. bonds; however, they are usually considered the second-most secure type of municipal bonds. 3. Certificates of Participation (COPs): A COP is a lease-financing mechanism where the issuing agency enters into a lease-purchase agreement associated with a specific asset and agrees to make regular lease payments subject to annual appropriation for the use of that asset over a specific period of time, after which the title for the asset transfers to the government. Where a GO is secured by the taxing authority of the issuing agency, COPs are secured by the asset pledged in the lease-financing contract. COPs are used extensively across the State of Colorado. The Colorado Supreme Court has ruled on two occasions in the last few decades that COPs are not considered a form of long-term debt and do not constitute a multi-year fiscal obligation and thus do not require prior voter approval before issuance. The City did a COP transaction in 2012 associated with refinancing the police building. While the City received Agenda Item 15 Item # 15 Page 10 a Aaa issuer rating from Moody’s (this would apply to a GO bond issuance), the COPs were rated and issued at Aa1. In this case, the actual rate on the COP was 1.82% compared to 2.51% as reported on the Bloomberg index for a Aaa bond on the day of closing. This discrepancy arises from the variable nature of the COP and GO bond markets and the difficulty in predicting a rate that can be obtained for a COP. The COP market is not indexed like the traditional bond markets. COPs typically carry a higher interest rate than GO bonds. The higher interest is influenced by multiple factors including the risk of annual appropriation and overall volume and interest from the investor pool. In talking with the City’s Financial Advisor, a typical spread of 20-40 basis points is common between a Aaa GO issue and a Aa1 COP issue but as the City experienced in 2012, the spread can vary significantly. The premium on the interest rate is offset by several factors associated with holding an election to support a GO debt issuance. Elections can only be held at certain times. The next election opportunity for the City would be the November 2016 election and alternatively, April 2017. Municipalities generally prefer using COPs for financing projects like this because a) the timing of the project would be delayed significantly and b) interest rates in 2017 are uncertain but potentially higher. For these reasons, staff recommends moving forward with a COP financing mechanism to support the Parking Structure and the Police Regional Training Facility. BOARD / COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION The Project was reviewed by two boards prior to its presentation to City Council for consideration; both of these boards supported the project:  Parking Advisory Board - Support (Attachments 10 and 11); and  Downtown Development Authority - Support (Attachment 8). The Project was reviewed by the appropriate boards and commissions as it progressed through the land use entitlement process, including:  Landmark Preservation Commission - Recommendation to Planning and Zoning Board - Approved - September 28, 2015; and  Planning and Zoning Board - Review of the Project Development Plan - Approved - October 8, 2015. The Project was also reviewed by the Council Finance Committee on October 26, 2015. PUBLIC OUTREACH Significant public outreach was conducted in the preparation of each of the key strategic documents the Project delivers on, including:  City Plan update;  City Strategic Plan;  Downtown Strategic Plan (2004); and  Parking Plan: Downtown and Surrounding Neighborhoods. In addition, staff is currently engaged in a dialogue with the community and downtown stakeholders regarding parking demand and needs as part of the update to the Downtown Plan (anticipated preliminary policy direction in May 2016). All of this background engagement and discussion has been used to inform the project. Agenda Item 15 Item # 15 Page 11 ATTACHMENTS 1. Overall Site Plan (PDF) 2. Context map (PDF) 3.

FORT COLLINS HOTEL PARKING GARAGE - RECOMMENDATION TO DECISION MAKER PROJECT DESCRIPTION: Located at 363 Jefferson Street, this project proposes a 323 stall parking garage consisting of 83,847 square foot (3,200 mixed use and 80,647 square foot parking area). The project will require a Type II (Planning & Zoning Board) Landmark Preservation Commission Approved by Commission at their October 14, 2015 meeting. ATTACHMENT 5 City of Fort Collins Page 2 September 28, 2015 hearing. The associated Downtown Hotel project was reviewed by the Landmark Preservation Commission at a work session held on June 10, 2015, during which time the Commission discussed the conceptual proposal of a garage structure. At tonight’s meeting, the applicants are requesting a final review of the project, and a recommendation to the Planning & Zoning Board. APPLICANT: Stu MacMillan, Bohemian Companies Staff Report Ms. McWilliams presented the staff report. Applicant Presentation Lou Bieker with 4240 Architecture in Denver gave the Applicant presentation, noting that it had been modified since the publication of the agenda packet, and a copy of the current presentation was submitted into the record. He explained that Bohemian Companies is one of the Applicants, but the City of Fort Collins and the DDA are really his clients for the parking structure. Photos of the current street views were displayed. Applicable sections of the River District Design Guidelines were noted. The Applicant spoke about the parking garage providing a bridge between Old Town and the River District, and the importance of relating to both in its design. City guidelines for street trees have been followed. Retail space is planned along the alley, and may be also incorporated into the Jefferson Street side in the future. The ramping system is located in the interior of the structure, so as not to be visible from the street. He discussed the similarities of the materials to those used in the hotel, specifically the brick and metal screening elements. Public Input None Commission Questions and Discussion Hard copies of the Commission’s findings with regard to the Fort Collins Downtown Hotel from the September 9, 2015 meeting were distributed to the Members by Staff for reference. Chair Sladek directed that the Commission first discuss adjacencies to the project. A Member inquired about the “Quonset hut” buildings on Jefferson. Staff said they were surveyed about 10 years ago, and that some were determined to be potentially eligible at that time, and others were not. However, there has not been a more recent review conducted. Members asked about the buildings across Jefferson, and since there were no photos of that area included in the packet, Staff displayed imagery from Google Maps Street View for the Commission. A Member expressed interested in having information about the dates those structures were built, but that information was unavailable. The Member said the process did not need to be delayed for that reason, but that it would be nice to have that kind of information in the future. Chair Sladek complimented the design, saying he appreciated the Applicant’s thoughtful analysis, which went beyond the standards and requirements, resulting in a well-conceived project. He also stated that it would be helpful to have additional drawings showing the garages in relation to some of these buildings, but that was not necessary to their decision. The Commission discussed how to craft the wording for the motion, findings of fact and adjacencies, drawing heavily from the handout of the findings from the Fort Collins Downtown Hotel. Members discussed the bridge formed by the project between the River District and the Walnut Street area. After some clarification from Mr. Yatabe, Assistant City Attorney, the Commission added the River District to the description of the project’s adjacencies. Commission Deliberation Mr. Ernest moved that the Landmark Preservation Commission recommend to the decision maker, the Planning and Zoning Board, approval of the Fort Collins Hotel Parking Garage project located at 363 Jefferson Street, with the following findings of fact: 1. The adjacencies defined for the Fort Collins Downtown Hotel project at the September 9, 2015 regular meeting of the Landmark Preservation Commission also apply to this project, with the addition of the River District. City of Fort Collins Page 3 September 28, 2015 2. The project is compatible and respectful to the character of the surrounding historic context for the following reasons: a. The building uses historically sensitive materials and colors of materials that are compatible with adjacent historic properties. b. The project uses compatible solid to void pattern, typical of the adjacent historic context. c. The pedestrian scale of the proposed project is compatible with the historic context. Ms. Wallace seconded. Ms. Dunn stated that she didn’t see the project as compatible to the neighboring district, based on Land Use Code 3.4.7, specifically with regard to the cornice line and metal materials. Motion passed 4-1, with Dunn dissenting. [Timestamp: 6:51 p.m.] x OTHER BUSINESS None x ADJOURNMENT Chair Sladek adjourned the meeting at 6:51 p.m. Minutes respectfully submitted by Gretchen Schiager.

Box 580 Fort Collins, CO 80522.0580 970.416.2740 970.224.6134- fax fcgov.com Planning, Development & Transportation MEMORANDUM DATE: September 10, 2015 TO: Planning and Zoning Board TH: Tom Leeson, Interim Director of Community Development & Neighborhood Services Seth Lorson, City Planner FR: Karen McWilliams, Historic Preservation Manager RE: Landmark Preservation Commission (LPC) Findings of Fact and Conclusions Pertaining to the Fort Collins Downtown Hotel Project. As provided for in Land Use Code Section 3.4.7(F)(6), in its consideration of the approval of plans for properties containing or adjacent to designated, eligible or potentially eligible sites, structure, objects or districts, the Decision Maker shall receive, and consider in making its decision, a written recommendation from the Landmark Preservation Commission. This memorandum contains the Commission’s Findings of Facts and its motion for this project. 1) The development project known as the Downtown Hotel is located adjacent to the Old Town Fort Collins Historic District, which is a designated Fort Collins Landmark District as well as a National Register of Historic Places District; and to the Armory Building, which is individually designated on the National, State, and Fort Collins historic registers; additionally, it is adjacent to properties that have been officially determined to be individually eligible for local landmark designation. 2) At its September 9, 2015 Regular Meeting, the Landmark Preservation Commission reviewed the development project known as the Downtown Hotel, and as authorized under LUC Section 3.4.7(F)(6), made the following findings of facts: That the project is compatible and respectful to the character of the surrounding historic context for the following reasons: a. The project design uses traditional proportion and historic modules typical of like adjacent historic buildings. b. The project uses massing location and appropriate step-backs to mitigate height, relative to the historic context, as well as to the Mitchell Block. c. The building uses historically scaled materials, and colors of materials, that are compatible with adjacent historic properties. d. The project uses compatible solid to void window pattern, typical of the adjacent historic context. e. The pedestrian scale of the main floor of the proposed project is compatible with the historic context. 3) The Commission specifically discussed in its deliberations the applicants’ request for modifications to two Standards, relative to the building’s height and setback, specifically: Section 4.16(D)(2)(a), which permits a maximum height of four stories or 56 feet; and Section 4.16(D)(4)(a), which requires a setback at a 35 degree angle measured at the intersection of the floor plane of the fourth floor and the property line. - 2 - 4) At its September 9, 2015 Regular Meeting, the Commission adopted the following motion on a vote of 8-0: That the Landmark Preservation Commission recommend to the decision maker, the Planning and Zoning Board, the approval of the development proposal for the Fort Collins Hotel located at the corner of Chestnut and Walnut Streets, finding that it complies with Land Use Code Section 3.4.7. Planning & Zoning Board October 8, 2015 Page 6 Member Hart made a motion that the Planning and Zoning Board approve the modification of standard to section 3.8.30(F)(1) of the Land Use Code to allow a portion on the required 25’ buffer yard abutting single-family homes to be reduced to 20’ based on the findings of fact on page 10 of the staff report. Member Hobbs seconded the motion. Vote: 6:0. Member Hart made a motion that the Planning and Zoning Board approve the Affinity at Fort Collins PDP #150010 based on the findings of fact found on page 10 of the staff report. Member Heinz seconded the motion. Vote: 6:0. The Board took a break at 7:55pm and resumed at 8:05pm. Project: Fort Collins Hotel Parking Garage Project Description: This project proposes to construct a 3-level mixed-use parking garage with 325 parking spaces and 3,200 square feet of retail space at the corner of Chestnut and Jefferson Streets (363 Jefferson Street). The parking garage is proposed as a public-private partnership between the City of Fort Collins, the Downtown Development Authority, and the developers of the Fort Collins Hotel (Bohemian Companies, McWhinney, and Sage Hospitality). 113 parking spaces will be dedicated to the Fort Collins Hotel (approved by the Planning and Zoning Board on August 10, 2015) and 212 parking spaces will be public parking managed by the City. Recommendation: Approval Secretary Cosmas reported that two items had been received since the work session: the LPC findings of fact and conclusion from their September 28th hearing recommending approval, and an updated modification request from 4240 Architecture, Inc., regarding the size of the parking stalls. Staff and Applicant Presentations Planner Lorson gave a brief overview of the project, showing slides of the site map, renderings and the overall project dimensions. He stated that the right-of-way improvements are consistent with those pertaining to the Fort Collins Hotel. He also reviewed the modification request details, answering some questions that were previously brought up at the work session regarding the number of parking spaces used seasonally by existing Fort Collins garages and showing capacity images of each. Lou Bieker, 4240 Architecture, also reviewed some of the major points of the project, incorporating the role of the hotel and the River District into the overall design. He also illustrated some of the colors and textures planned for the hotel, as well as the external landscaping plans for the project. Public Input None noted. ATTACHMENT 6 Planning & Zoning Board October 8, 2015 Page 7 Board Questions and Staff Response Board members asked about the future occupation of the associated retail spaces, the modification impacts, and long- and short-term parking needs of patrons. Larry Hofmockel, with Walker Parking Consultants, stated that compliance with the City code would require elimination of an entire row of the parking spaces planned; therefore, the modification is important. He added that the hotel-level parking is considered long-term parking. There was in-depth discussion about the size of parking spaces with respect to the various hotel levels and the parking needs. Josh Birks, Economic Health Director for COFC, informed the group that his team has worked with Parking Services regarding the modifications to standards and he believes they are consistent with the other facilities in town. Board members also asked about the parking stall degrees relative to the distance when accessing the stall and the justification for needing 20 feet for pulling out of an angled stall (pertains to the request for modification for angled drive aisle standards). Planner Lorson suggested that perhaps the code should be updated to better reflect the standards and requirements. Board members also asked who owns this structure for future maintenance and security. Mr. Birks responded that there are several owners of the parking areas (FC Hotel, Bohemian, and the COFC). Each owner will operate will operate different floors, and a Condo Association will be established to specify the maintenance of garage. Board members inquired about the progress in wayfinding, and Planner Lorson responded that there would not be wayfinding established with this application. He acknowledged that this is currently part of the Downtown Plan discussion. He added that the code standards have been reviewed extensively and tests were done to ensure larger vehicles would be accommodated. Chair Carpenter asked about the safety factors for drive aisle widths from an auto and a pedestrian standpoint. Board members asked about the projected bike parking and whether alternative compliance was being proposed and whether the P&Z Board would be the final decision maker for this project. The P&Z Board is the final decision maker; however, it will be heard by the City Council eventually from a legislative standpoint. Mr. Bieker also confirmed that this will be a public parking facility. Board Deliberation Each Board member presented their opinion: Chair Carpenter supports; Member Hart supports but has some concerns with the modifications; Member Hobbs supports, especially the public/private partnership, but still has some concern with the proximity to the transient population; Member Schneider does not support the modification related to large and small vehicles, coupled with the low demand for this parking garage; Vice Chair Kirkpatrick supports and would like to see a future review of the land use code standards for parking; Member Hansen supports this project; and Member Heinz supports but still has concerns over whether another parking garage is needed. Member Hart made a motion that the Planning and Zoning Board approve the modification of standard to subsection 3.22(L) of the Land Use Code related to the size of parking spaces based on the findings of fact on page 10 of the staff report. Member Hansen seconded the motion. Vote: 6:1 with Member Schneider dissenting. Member Hobbs made a motion that the Planning and Zoning Board approve the Fort Collins Hotel Parking Garage PDP#150018 based on the findings of fact on page 10 of the staff report. Member Hansen seconded the motion. Vote: 7:0. PARKING PLAN FORT COLLINS PARKING CONDITIONS ASSESSMENT 77 FIGURE 12: PUBLIC PARKING OPPORTUNITY AREAS ATTACHMENT 7 ATTACHMENT 8 ATTACHMENT 9 October 12, 2015 Mayor Wade Troxell Members of the Fort Collins City Council Etc Etc Dear Mayor Troxell and Councilmembers: This letter is written in support of the City of Fort Collins’ participation in the public/private partnership proposed to construct a 323 space parking structure in conjunction with the development of a downtown hotel, located at 363 Jefferson Street. At the regularly scheduled Parking Advisory Board meeting on September 9, 2015, Mike Beckstead, the City’s Chief Financial Officer, provided an overview of the proposed project and answered questions about the public/private partnership. The Parking Advisory Board noted that the 2013 Parking Plan developed by the City indicated a need for approximately 1500 additional parking spaces needed to meet demand downtown. Though the 200 spaces that will be dedicated for public parking in the proposed hotel parking structure would not address the entire demand, it would help address a portion of the need. At our Parking Advisory Board meeting on October 12, we discussed this recommendation and voted 6 to 1 to support this letter. We realize that there are many dimensions to the final decision about the City’s approval of the hotel project in its entirety but from the standpoint of helping to address the parking challenges downtown, this proposed public/private partnership to build a parking structure would be helpful. Please let us know if you have questions about our recommendation.

and WHEREAS, the Parking Garage is being developed by the Bohemian Companies, McWhinney Enterprises and Sage Hospitality (the “Developers”) to serve a hotel the Developers are planning to build at the corner of Chestnut Street and Walnut Street adjacent to the Parking Garage (the “Hotel”); and WHEREAS, the Developers have proposed that the Parking Garage be constructed as a public-private project with the City of Fort Collins (the “City”); and WHEREAS, the Parking Garage is proposed to be built as a condominium project to initially include 3,200 square feet of retail space that would face and serve the Hotel and approximately 322 parking spaces; and WHEREAS, it is proposed that the parking spaces be subdivided into condominium units, with the City purchasing the units having approximately two-thirds of the parking spaces to use for public parking (approximately 216 spaces) that will be located on the top two levels of the Parking Garage and with the Developers owning the condominium units for the retail space and the remaining parking spaces, mostly on the bottom level and some on the second level, to serve the parking needs of the Hotel and the retail space; and WHEREAS, it is also being proposed that the City will have a 50-year option to acquire from the Developers a number of designated parking spaces on the bottom level to convert into a retail space condominium unit that would face Jefferson Street and in exchange the City would convey to the Developers a similar number of the City’s parking spaces on the second level; and WHEREAS, City staff and the Developers have negotiated a “Construction and Purchase Agreement” setting forth this proposed public-private project, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit “A” and incorporated herein by reference (the “Agreement”); and WHEREAS, under the Agreement the City has the right to review and approve the final construction plans and cost estimates for the Parking Garage and would purchase its parking space condominium units from the Developers only after the construction of the Parking Garage is completed; and WHEREAS, the City’s obligation under the Agreement to purchase condominium units in the Parking Garage is subject to and contingent upon the City Council’s future appropriation of the funds needed for the purchase; and WHEREAS, since the City will be purchasing approximately two-thirds of the space in the Parking Garage, the Agreement provides that the purchase price will be the City’s two-thirds proportionate share of the land costs, $2,018,835, plus two-thirds of the parties agreed-upon costs for the construction of the Parking Garage, for a total amount of land and construction costs currently estimated not to exceed $7.7 million; and WHEREAS, since the Parking Garage is being proposed as a condominium project, the parties have also negotiated the “Condominium Declaration” that will establish the parties’ condominium association, govern how the board of the association operates and maintains the Parking Garage, and sets out the financial obligations of the condominium owners for the association’s costs to operate and maintain the Parking Garage, a copy of which Declaration is attached as Exhibit “F” to the Agreement;

B. In Conjunction with the development of a downtown hotel, Developer and the City have agreed to cooperate in developing a public/private parking structure (“Parking Structure”) on the Property as more particularly described herein. C. The parties wish to set forth their agreements with respect to the development and ownership of the Parking Structure. NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties agree as follows: 1. Construction of the Parking Structure. A. Developer will not begin construction of the Parking Structure until the City has given its approval of (a) the final plans and specifications for the construction of the Parking Structure, which plans and specifications are more particularly described on attached Exhibit A (the “Final Plans”) and (b) Developer’s final itemized cost estimate for construction of the Parking Structure (“Itemized Costs”). The City shall not be obligated to pay any costs incurred by the Developer in excess of the Itemized Costs without prior agreement in writing by the parties. B. If the City has timely performed its obligations under this Agreement, Developer agrees to construct the Parking Structure in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, the Final Plans, and the Construction Schedule attached as Exhibit B. C. Developer acknowledges that the City is a tax exempt entity under Colorado law. Developer will pursue an exemption from future state and local sales and use taxes and reimbursement for previously paid state and local sales and use taxes on the City’s portion of all materials to be incorporated into the Parking Structure. If, despite making reasonable efforts to fulfill this obligation, Developer is unsuccessful in obtaining such savings or reimbursement, the City will have the right to continue to seek such savings or reimbursement and Developer agrees to cooperate fully with the City in this effort. EXHIBIT A 2 2. Conveyance of City Parking Area to the City. A. Developer agrees to sell and the City agrees to purchase at least 210 parking spaces within the Parking Structure as herein provided, including an undivided interest in the land underlying the Parking Structure and air rights over the building (the “City Parking Area”). The City Parking Area is described on attached Exhibit C. B. The City Parking Area will be part of a condominium community subject to a common ownership regime pursuant to the Colorado Common Ownership Interest Act (CCIOA) as established by Developer prior to conveying the City Parking Area. The location of the City Parking Area within the Parking Structure is depicted on attached Exhibit D. When surveys have been prepared for the Parking Structure in connection with recording the Declaration (as defined below in subsection D), the survey legal description and drawing shall be substituted for Exhibits C and D. C. Within thirty (30) days following issuance of a certificate of occupancy for the Parking Structure, Developer shall convey the City Parking Area to the City pursuant to a special warranty deed (the “Deed”) in substantially the form attached as Exhibit E. The City Parking Area will include all improvements and fixtures of a permanent nature located within the City Parking Area and the right to use common elements located on the Property. At Closing (as hereafter defined), Developer shall also assign (to the extent assignable) all warranties for work performed with respect to construction of any improvements to be conveyed by Developer to the City at Closing. D. Closing on the conveyance of the City Parking Area (“Closing”) shall be held at a mutually agreed date and time in the office of Land Title Guarantee Company (“Title Company”). At Closing, the City shall take title to and possession of the City Parking Area subject to a recorded Condominium Community Declaration (“Declaration”) in substantially the form attached as Exhibit F, and such other documents as are reasonably necessary for the creation of a Condominium Community for the Parking Structure, including Articles of Incorporation of an association, Rules and Regulations and By-laws (collectively, the “Condominium Community Documents”). The City and Developer shall also execute and deliver at Closing such other instruments and documents as they deem reasonably necessary and/or desirable in order to consummate the Closing and establish the Condominium Community common ownership regime. The parties acknowledge that the Declaration and Condominium Community Documents are substantially complete but not reviewed and agreed to by the parties in final form. The parties agree to negotiate the Declaration and the Condominium Community Documents in good faith to final execution form for delivery at or before the Closing. E. At Closing Developer and the City shall also execute an option agreement that will allow the City, at its discretion, to acquire from the Developer an area of parking on the first floor of the Parking Structure designated as a separate unit or units in the Condominium Community, for the construction of retail space (the “Option Agreement”). In exchange, the City will transfer to the Developer under the Option Agreement a similar number of parking spaces in the City Parking Area, which spaces shall also be designated as a separate unit or units 3 in the Condominium Community. The Option Agreement will be in substantially the form attached as Exhibit G, and shall be recorded following Closing and run with the designated units. 3. Purchase Price. The total purchase price of the City Parking Area will be Two Million Dollars ($2,018,835) plus two-thirds of the agreed-upon costs of construction of the Parking Structure, but not to exceed a total amount of _______ Dollars ($_______) (“Purchase Price”). The Purchase Price will be payable by chaser to Seller as follows: A. No earnest money deposit is required in connection with this transaction, the mutuality of the promises of the parties hereto being deemed adequate consideration. B. The entire amount of the Purchase Price, subject to closing costs and customary prorations, will be payable by Purchaser to Seller in immediately available funds at the time of Closing, as hereinafter set forth. C. As additional consideration, the City has already paid $50,000 towards the initial design costs for the Parking Structure, which shall be credited to the City at Closing against the Purchase Price. 4. Title Insurance/Evidence of Title. A. Within thirty (30) days following the Effective Date, Developer will provide to City a Title Insurance Commitment, together with copies of all documents of record related to exceptions identified in the Title Commitment (together referred to as the “Title Commitment”) from the Title Company. The Title Commitment must show title to the Property and the City Parking Area in Developer, subject only to those exceptions shown on Schedule B-2 to the Title Commitment that are acceptable to the City. The parties will each pay half the cost of the Title Commitment and Title Insurance. B. If the Title Commitment discloses title defects unsatisfactory to the City and subject to which the City need not take title to the City Parking Area, City may give Developer written notice of such defects by the date ten (10) calendar days after the Effective Date or the date ten (10) calendar days after City’s receipt of the Title Commitment, whichever is later, and no later than ten (10) calendar days after notice of any title change or discovery of any title defect not disclosed by the Title Commitment. For a period of thirty (30) days after receipt by Developer of notice of title defects (“Title Cure Period”) Developer shall act reasonably and in good faith to cure such defects, at its expense, without in any other manner affecting the terms of this Agreement; provided that Developer shall not be obligated to spend more than $5,000.00 in total to cure such title defects. C. If any instrument or deposit is necessary in order to correct a defect in or objection to title, the following apply: 4 (1) Any instrument will be in a form and contain terms and conditions Title Company may reasonably require so as to be sufficiently satisfied and omit such defects or objection. (2) Any deposit will be made with Title Company. (3) Developer agrees to execute, acknowledge and deliver any required instrument and to make any required deposit. D. If Title Company refuses to omit any title defect or objection prior to the end of the Title Cure Period, then the City, at its election, has the right to: (1) accept such title as Developer is able to convey, without any reduction of the Purchase Price; or (2) rescind this Agreement and, upon such rescission this Agreement will be null and void and of no further effect, and all parties to this Agreement will be released from all obligations hereunder. E. If Developer is unable to convey title as provided in this paragraph 4 to City due to an act or omission of Developer, Developer is in default and continues to be liable under this Agreement. F. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (1) any title condition consisting of monetary liens, deeds of trust or other financial encumbrances against the Property or the City Parking Area must be removed by Developer at or prior to Closing, and Developer’s failure to cause the removal of the same will constitute a default by Developer under this Agreement; and (2) in the event Developer fails to cause the removal of a financial encumbrance against the Property or the City Parking Area prior to Closing, City has the right to pay amounts required to do so at Closing, and to receive a credit for such payment against the Purchase Price. 5. Survey/Legal Description. The parties each acknowledge that legal descriptions of the Property and of the City Parking Area are included in this Agreement. The parties intend that the referenced legal descriptions describe the Property and the City Parking Area except as otherwise expressly provided, and agree to work in good faith and cooperatively to correct or update such descriptions as necessary. 6. Platting/Subdivision. If the City Parking Area must be platted or subdivided, (either separately or in conjunction with other land) Developer, with the fullest cooperation of the City, shall cause such platting or subdivision requirement to be satisfied in accordance with all applicable laws, regulations and policies of the City of Fort Collins. Developer, with City’s assistance, shall use reasonable efforts to complete the procedure as quickly as reasonably 5 possible in order to meet the requirements of the Construction Schedule; provided, however, the City acknowledges that any such platting or subdivision is within the City’s control and Developer shall not be in default of this Agreement in the event the subdivision or platting is not accomplished timely in order to meet the requirements of the Construction Schedule. If platting or subdivision is required, Closing of the conveyance of the City Parking Area shall not occur until the subdivision or platting is complete. 7. Taxes. On or before Closing, the City will fully cooperate with Developer to obtain from the Larimer County Tax Assessor and the City Tax Assessor a waiver of taxes assessed against the City Parking Area for the period of ownership by the City. 8. Developer’s Representations and Warranties. Developer represents and warrants to the City that the following statements are as of the Effective Date, and will be on the date of Closing, true and accurate: A.

If City does not provide Developer written notice of any unsatisfactory condition, as determined at City’s sole discretion and signed by an authorized representative of the City, within sixty (60) days after the Effective Date, City waives any objection to the physical condition of the Property as it existed on or before sixty (60) days after the Effective Date.

In addition to inspections required by the City Code, the City shall have the right during construction of the Parking Structure to make periodic and reasonable inspections of the Parking Structure to ensure its consistency with the Final Plans.

Except as may be provided in paragraph 29 below, Developer shall have no responsibility or liability for conditions that existed prior to the initial inspection period described in subparagraph A above if the City failed to exercise commercially reasonable due diligence during the initial inspection period, or if the City was aware of an unsatisfactory condition and failed to object to it as provided in subparagraph A. If City does not provide Developer written notice of any unsatisfactory condition, as determined at City’s sole discretion and signed by an authorized representative of the City, prior to Closing, City waives any objection to the physical condition of the Property, the City Parking Area, and the improvements located thereon, except as otherwise provided in paragraph 29 below. If the City provides written notice of any unsatisfactory condition to Seller prior to Closing, and Developer does not cure such conditions within sixty (60) days after receipt by Developer of a notice of unsatisfactory condition, this Agreement may be terminated at the option of the City, or the City may proceed to Closing and accept the City Parking Area subject only to the warranties and protections of paragraph 29 below.

(c) Garage Expenses shall be assessed only against Garage Units. (d) Retail Expenses shall be assessed only against the Retail Unit. Section 10: Transfer Fees. The Association shall have the right to collect a reasonable fee on each transfer of an interest in a Unit to compensate the Association for the reasonable costs and expenses necessarily incurred by the Association in documenting the transfer in the books and records of the Association. Section 11: Initial Reserve Fund. Upon the transfer of each Unit by the Declarant to the first purchaser of the Unit, the Association shall have the right to collect from the Purchaser of the Unit an amount reasonably determined by the Board to be necessary to establish a reasonable reserve fund. ARTICLE VI. LIEN FOR NONPAYMENT OF COMMON EXPENSES All Assessments, charges, and fees of the Association due and owing under this Declaration shall be a continuing lien upon the Unit against which such Assessments, charges and fees are made. A lien under this Section is prior to all other liens and encumbrances on a Unit, except: (1) liens and encumbrances recorded before the recordation of this Declaration; (2) to the extent provided by CCIOA, a First Security Interest in the Unit recorded before the date on which the Common Expense Assessment sought to be enforced became delinquent; and (3) liens for real estate taxes and other governmental assessments or charges against the Unit. This Section does not prohibit an action to recover sums for which this Section creates a lien or prohibit the Association 11-10-15 v.2 35 from taking a deed in lieu of foreclosure. Sale or transfer of any Unit shall not affect the Association's lien. Any Assessment, charge, or fee provided for in this Declaration or any monthly or other installment thereof which is not fully paid within ten (10) days after the date due shall bear interest at a rate determined by the Board. In addition, the Board may assess a late charge thereon. Any Owner who fails to pay any Assessment, charge, or fee of the Association shall also be obligated to pay to the Association, on demand, all costs and expenses incurred by the Association, including reasonable attorney's fees, in attempting to collect the delinquent amount. The total amount due to the Association, including unpaid Assessments, fees, charges, fines, interest, late payment penalties, costs, and attorney's fees, shall constitute a lien on the defaulting Owner's Unit. The Association may bring an action, at law or in equity, or both, against any Owner personally obligated to pay any amount due to the Association or any monthly or other installment thereof and may also proceed to foreclose its lien against such Owner's Unit. An action at law or in equity by the Association against a delinquent Owner to recover a money judgment for unpaid amounts due to the Association or monthly or other installments thereof may be commenced and pursued by the Association without foreclosing or in any way waiving the Association's lien. ARTICLE VII. RESTRICTION ON USE Section 1: Improvements on Exterior of Units. No exterior additions to, exterior alterations of, or exterior decoration of the Building, a Unit or the Common Elements shall be made unless approved in writing by the Board. Section 2: Violation of Laws. Nothing shall be done or kept in any Unit or in or on the Common Elements, or any part thereof, which would be in violation of any Laws. Section 3: Nuisance. No obnoxious or offensive activity shall be conducted within any Unit or on the Common Elements which unreasonably interferes with the then existing use of any other Unit. No activity shall be conducted within any Unit or upon the Common Elements which is or might be unsafe, unhealthy, or hazardous to any person. Section 4: Use. All Garage Units shall be used for public or private parking of motor vehicles and bicycles. Retail Units shall be used for retail businesses or offices, except the following uses are expressly prohibited: ___________________________________________. Section 5: Signs. No signs shall be installed or permitted to remain on the exterior of any Unit or on the interior of a Unit if such sign is visible from the exterior of the Unit unless such sign is approved in writing in advance by the Board. No sign shall be installed on the Common Elements without the prior, written approval of the Board. One (1) for sale or for rent sign may be placed in the window of a Unit to be visible from the exterior of the Unit. The sign shall not exceed four (4) square feet. Section 6: Window Coverings. All exterior window coverings visible from the exterior of any Unit must have the prior, written approval of the Board. Nothing shall be placed on or in the windows or doors of the Units which create an unsightly appearance from the exterior of such Units. ARTICLE VIII. EASEMENTS 11-10-15 v.2 36 Section 1: Encroachments. A valid easement shall exist for the following encroachments and for the maintenance of the same: (a) in the event that any portion of the Common Elements encroaches upon any Unit or Units; or (b) in the event that any portion of a Unit encroaches upon any other Unit or Units or upon any portion of the Common Elements; or (c) in the event any encroachment shall occur in the future as a result of settling of the Building, alteration or repair to the Common Elements, or repair or restoration of the Building or a Unit after damage by fire or other casualty or condemnation or eminent domain proceedings. In the event that any one or more of the Units or the Building or other Improvements comprising part of the Common Elements are partially or totally destroyed and are then rebuilt or reconstructed in substantially the same location, and as a result of such rebuilding, any portion thereof shall encroach as provided in the preceding sentence, a valid easement for such encroachment shall exist. Such encroachments and easements shall not be considered or determined to be encumbrances, either on the Common Elements or on the Units, for purposes of marketability of title or other purposes. In interpreting any and all provisions of this Declaration, subsequent Unit deeds to, and/or mortgages of Units, the actual location of a Unit shall be deemed conclusively to be the property intended to be conveyed, reserved, or encumbered, notwithstanding any minor deviations, either horizontally, vertically, or laterally from the locations of such Units indicated on the Condominium Map. Section 2: Blanket Easement. There is hereby created a blanket easement upon, across, over, and under the Common Elements for ingress and egress to and from each Unit from public streets adjacent to the Condominium Project and for installing, replacing, repairing, and maintaining all Common Elements, including the Building, and all utilities such as water, sewer, gas, telephone, electricity, and communication. By virtue of this easement, it shall be expressly permissible for the providing of electrical, communication wires, circuits, and conduits on, above, across, and under the floor, roof and exterior walls of the Units. No sewer lines, electrical lines, water lines, or other utilities may be installed or relocated on the Real Estate, except as initially programmed and approved by the Declarant or as subsequently approved by the Board. The Association, its officers, agents, employees, and assigns, shall have the right to make such use of the Common Elements as may be reasonably necessary or appropriate to perform the duties and functions which it is obligated or permitted to perform pursuant to this Declaration. Section 3: Emergency Easement. An easement for ingress and egress is hereby granted to all police, sheriff, fire protection, ambulance, and other similar emergency agencies or Persons to enter upon the Real Estate in the performance of their duties. ARTICLE IX. TERMINATION OF MECHANIC'S LIEN RIGHTS AND INDEMNIFICATION No labor performed or materials furnished and incorporated in a Unit with the consent of or at the request of the Owner, his or her agents, contractors, or subcontractors, shall be the basis for filing a lien against the Unit of any other Owner not expressly consenting to or requesting the same or against the Common Elements. To the extent permitted by law, each Owner shall indemnify and hold harmless each of the other Owners and the Association from and against all liability arising from the claim of any lien against the Unit of any other Owner or against the Common Elements for construction performed or for labor, materials, services, or other products incorporated in the 11-10-15 v.2 37 Owner's Unit at such Owner's request. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Mortgagee of a Unit who shall become the Owner of such Unit pursuant to a lawful foreclosure sale or the taking of a deed in lieu of foreclosure shall not be under any obligation to indemnify and hold harmless any other Owner or the Association against liability for claims arising prior to the date such Mortgagee becomes an Owner. ARTICLE X. RESERVATION FOR ACCESS, MAINTENANCE, REPAIR, AND EMERGENCIES Section 1: Access to Units. The Association shall have the irrevocable right to be exercised by the Association's Board, officers, custodian, managing agent, employees, and contractors, to have access to each Unit from time to time during reasonable hours as may be necessary for the maintenance, repair, or replacement of any of the Common Elements therein or accessible therefrom or at any hour for making emergency repairs, maintenance, or inspection therein necessary to prevent damage to the Common Elements or to another Unit. Section 2: Damage to Unit. Damage to the interior or any part of a Unit resulting from the maintenance, repair, emergency repair, or replacement of any of the Common Elements or as a result of emergency repairs within another Unit at the insistence of the Association shall be a Common Expense; provided, however, that if the damage is caused by negligent or tortuous acts of an Owner, or the Owner’s agents, employees, invitees, or tenants, then such Owner shall be responsible and liable for all repairs and the cost thereof shall become said Owner's obligation, which shall be timely paid. Said obligation shall be an Assessment against said Owner’s Unit and shall be subject to the provisions for collection elsewhere provided in this Declaration. All damaged Improvements shall be restored substantially to the extent reasonably practical to the same condition in which they existed prior to the damage. All maintenance, repairs, replacement and improvement of the Common Elements, whether located inside or outside of the Units, shall be the Common Expense of all of the Owners (unless necessitated by the negligence, misuse, or tortuous act of an Owner, or the Owner’s agents, employees, invitees, or tenants, in which case such expense shall be charged to such Owner). However, the Association shall not be obligated to seek redress for such damages, and this covenant shall not abrogate the insurance provisions of this Declaration. ARTICLE XI. MAINTENANCE AND SERVICE RESPONSIBILITY Section 1: Owner. For maintenance purposes, an Owner shall be deemed to own, maintain and keep in good repair and condition at all times: (1) such Owner’s Unit as defined in Article I and all Limited Common Elements appurtenant to such Unit, which shall include by example and not limitation, all improvements within the Unit Boundaries as defined in Article I, the windows, screens, exterior doors including window and door casings; (2) the interior non-supporting walls, floors, and ceilings of the Unit; (3) the materials such as, but not limited to, plaster, gypsum drywall, insulation, paneling, wallpaper, paint, ceiling, wall and floor tile and hard wood flooring, carpet, and other materials which make up the finished surfaces of the interior of the perimeter walls, ceiling, and floors of the Unit; (4) interior doors; all improvements and betterments installed by the Owner; (5) personal property of the Owner; exterior shutters, awnings, storm doors, storm windows, appurtenant to each Unit; (6) exterior heating, ventilating, or air conditioning fixtures and equipment serving the Unit; (7) exterior doors and windows of a Unit; and (8) all other fixtures and 11-10-15 v.2 38 equipment designated to serve a single Unit but located outside of the Boundaries of such Unit. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the event of a casualty loss or damage, an Owner shall be responsible for the repair or replacement of any improvements that are not covered by the insurance required to be maintained by the Association pursuant to Article XV, Section 1(a). An Owner shall also maintain and keep in good repair at all times all plumbing lines and fixtures; heating, air-conditioning and ventilating systems and equipment; furnace and hot water heater; and electrical wires, conduits, systems, and fixtures serving only his or her Unit (“Individual Utilities”) commencing at the point that the Individual Utilities leave the Common Utilities. An Owner shall not be deemed to own and shall have no obligation to maintain or repair utility pipes, wires, lines, conduits, or systems running through his or her Unit which serve one or more other Units (“Common Utilities”), which Common Utilities are General Common Elements to be maintained by the Association. Common Utilities shall not be disturbed or relocated by an Owner without the prior written consent and approval of the Board. An Owner shall do no act or work that will impair the structural soundness or integrity of the Building or impair the proper functioning of the Common Utilities, or impair any easement. Section 2: Association. Except as hereinabove provided, the Association shall have the duty and responsibility for maintaining and repairing all of the Common Elements, including but not limited to maintaining and repairing the Limited Common Elements such as the drive lanes and ramps within the Garage Units and the access drives to the Garage Units from public streets. Maintenance of such Limited Common Elements shall include by example and not limitation the maintenance and repair of entry gates and ticket booths, the cleaning, restriping and sealing of the concrete surfaces, the repair of cracking or spalling of such surfaces, and snow removal. The cost of said maintenance and repair shall be a Common Expense allocated as provided in Article III, Section 8 of this Declaration. ARTICLE XII. COMPLIANCE WITH PROVISIONS OF DOCUMENTS Section 1: Compliance. Each Owner shall comply strictly with the provisions of the Documents and the decisions and resolutions adopted pursuant thereto as the same may be lawfully made and amended and/or modified from time to time. Failure to comply with any of the same shall be grounds for an action to recover sums due; for damages or injunctive relief, or both; and for reimbursement of all attorney's fees incurred in connection therewith, which action shall be maintainable by the Board or managing agent in the name of the Association on behalf of the Owners or, in a proper case, by an aggrieved Owner. Section 2: Notice of Violation. In the event an alleged violation of the Documents is brought to the attention of the Board, the Board shall give written notice of violation to the Owner describing with reasonable particularity the alleged violation of the documents and granting the Owner a reasonable period of time, but not less than ten (10) days, within which to correct the violation. Notice of violation shall be given as provided in Article II, Section 30 of this Declaration. Section 3: Penalties. The Board may levy reasonable fines for violation of the Documents, may impose charges for late payment of Assessments, and in the event of any litigation the Court 11-10-15 v.2 39 shall award to the prevailing party all costs and reasonable attorney’s fees incurred in enforcing the Documents. ARTICLE XIII. REVOCATION OR AMENDMENT OF DECLARATION Except as otherwise provided in Article XVI hereinafter, this Declaration shall not be revoked unless all the Owners consent and agree to such revocation by instrument duly recorded. This Declaration shall not be amended except by a Super Majority Vote of the Owners; provided, however, the undivided interest in the Common Elements appurtenant to each Unit, as expressed in this Declaration, shall have a permanent character and shall not be altered without the consent of all of the Owners as expressed in an amended Declaration duly recorded. ARTICLE XIV. ADDITIONS, ALTERATIONS, AND IMPROVEMENTS TO GENERAL COMMON ELEMENTS Except for regularly scheduled maintenance, repair or replacement of the Common Elements, there shall be no capital additions, alterations, or improvements of or to the General Common Elements by the Association requiring an expenditure in any calendar year in excess of an amount equal to twenty-five percent (25%) of the Association's then-current annual budget without prior approval of the Owners by Super Majority Vote. The limitations set forth above shall not apply to any expenditures made by the Association for maintenance and repair of the Common Elements or for repair in the event of damage, destruction, or condemnation as provided in Articles XVI and XVII hereinafter. ARTICLE XV. INSURANCE Section 1: To be Obtained by the Association. The Association shall obtain and maintain at all times, to the extent obtainable at reasonable cost, policies involving standard premium rates established by the Colorado Insurance Commissioner and written with companies licensed to do business in Colorado and having a Best's Insurance Report rating of A & XV or better covering the risks set forth below. The Association shall not obtain any policy where: (i) under the terms of the insurance company's charter, bylaws, or policy, contributions or assessments may be made against a Mortgagee or Mortgagee's designee; or (ii) by the terms of the carrier's charter, bylaws, or policy, loss payments are contingent upon action by the company's board, policyholders, or members; or (iii) the policy includes any limiting clauses (other than insurance conditions) which could prevent Mortgagees or Owners from collecting insurance proceeds. The types of coverage to be obtained and risks to be covered are as follows: (a) All Risk Coverage. The Association shall obtain insurance providing all risk coverage or the nearest equivalent available for the full replacement cost, without deduction for depreciation, for all insurable improvements located on the general Common Elements, including all of the Units, and the other property of the Association in such amounts as it deems adequate to protect the property. The Association shall provide insurance on the Units that shall exclude all windows, screens, exterior doors, insulation, drywall and the finished surfaces of floors and ceilings within the Units (i.e., paint, wallpaper, paneling, other wall covering, title, carpet and any floor covering). The insurance obtained by the Association on the Units does not include improvements 11-10-15 v.2 40 and betterments installed by an Owner, personal property of the Owner, or liability for incidents occurring within the Units or through the Owner’s personal actions. All policies shall contain a standard non-contributory mortgage clause in favor of each First Mortgagee, and their successors and assigns, which shall provide that the loss, if any thereunder, shall be payable to the Association for the use and benefit of such First Mortgagee, and their successors and assigns, as their interests may appear of record in the records of the office of the Clerk and Recorder of Larimer County, Colorado. The Association may also obtain any additional endorsements which it deems advisable and in the best interests of the Association by the Board. (b) Casualty Insurance. The Association shall maintain broad form casualty loss insurance written on a special form or its equivalent on a replacement cost basis. If requested by a First Mortgagee or an insurer or guarantor of a first mortgage, such policy shall also include construction code endorsements such as demolition cost endorsement, a contingent liability from operation of building laws endorsement, and an increased cost of construction endorsement. Said casualty insurance shall insure any property, the nature of which is a Common Element, including all of the Units, any fixtures, equipment, or other property within the Units which are to be financed by a First Mortgagee, regardless of whether or not such property is a part of the Common Elements, together with all service equipment contained therein, in an amount equal to the full replacement value without deduction for depreciation. All policies shall contain a standard noncontributory mortgage clause in favor of each Mortgagee of a Unit which shall provide that the loss, if any, thereunder shall be payable to the Association for the use and benefit of the Owners and Mortgagees as their interests may appear. The Association shall hold any proceeds of insurance in trust for the use and benefit of the Owners and Mortgagees as their interests may appear. All Owners and all Mortgagees, if any, shall be beneficiaries of the policy in the same proportion as each Owner's appurtenant undivided interest in the Common Elements as set forth on Exhibit A attached hereto. (c) Liability Insurance. The Association shall maintain public liability and property damage insurance in such limits as the Board may from time to time determine but not in an amount less than Two Million Dollars ($2,000,000) per injury, per person, per occurrence, and umbrella liability limits of Two Million Dollars ($2,000,000) per occurrence covering claims for bodily injury or property damage. Coverage shall include, without limitation, liability for personal injuries, operation of automobiles on behalf of the Association, and activities in connection with the ownership, operation, maintenance, and other use of the Common Elements. Said policy shall also contain a “severability of interest” endorsement. Coverage under such policy shall include, without limitation, legal liability of the insureds for property damage, bodily injuries, and death of persons in connection with the operation, maintenance, or use of the Common Elements and legal liability arising out of lawsuits. Such insurance shall also include protection against such other risks as are customarily covered with respect to condominiums similar in construction, location, and use. (d) Workers’ Compensation Insurance. The Association shall maintain workers’ compensation and employers’ liability insurance and all other similar insurance with respect to employees of the Association in the amounts and in the forms now or hereafter required by law. (e) Officers' and Directors' Insurance. To the extent such insurance can be obtained at reasonable cost, the Association shall maintain officers and directors liability insurance and shall also maintain blanket fidelity bonds for all officers, directors, and employees of the Association and 11-10-15 v.2 41 all other persons handling or responsible for funds of or administered by the Association. If the managing agent has the responsibility for handling or administering funds of the Association, the managing agent shall be required to maintain fidelity bond coverage for its officers, employees, and agents handling or responsible for funds of or administered on behalf of the Association. Such fidelity bonds shall name the Association as an obligee and shall not be less than $50,000. Such bonds shall contain waivers by the issuers thereof of all defenses based upon the exclusion of persons serving without compensation from the definition of employees or similar terms or expressions. The premiums on all bonds required hereunder, except those maintained by the managing agent, shall be paid by the Association as a Common Expense. (f) Other Insurance. The Association may obtain “all-in” insurance coverage and may obtain insurance against such other risks of a similar or dissimilar nature as shall be deemed appropriate, including Condominium Map or other glass insurance and insurance covering any personal property of the Association located on the Common Elements. Section 2: Requirements of Insurance. All policies of insurance, to the extent obtainable, shall contain waivers of subrogation and waivers of any defense based on invalidity arising from any acts of an Owner and shall provide that such policies may not be cancelled or modified without at least thirty (30) days' prior written notice to all of the insureds, including the Association and all Mortgagees. If requested, duplicate originals of all policies and renewals thereof, together with proof of payment of premiums, shall be delivered to all Mortgagees at least thirty (30) days prior to expiration of the then current policies. The insurance shall be carried in blanket form naming the Association as the insured, as attorney-in-fact for all of the Owners, which policy or policies shall identify the interest of each Owner (Owner's name and Unit number designation) and First Mortgagee. The Association shall require the insurance company or companies providing the insurance coverage described herein to provide to each Owner a certificate of insurance in regard to such Owner's individual Unit. Section 3: Attorney-in-Fact. Notwithstanding any of the foregoing provisions and requirements relating to property or liability insurance, there may be named as an insured, on behalf of the Association, an authorized representative who shall have the exclusive authority to negotiate losses under any policy providing such property or liability insurance and to perform such other functions as are necessary to accomplish such purpose. All of the Owners hereby irrevocably constitute the Association as their true and lawful attorney-in-fact in their name, place, and stead for the purpose of purchasing and maintaining such insurance, including the collection and appropriate disposition of the proceeds thereof, the negotiation of losses, the execution of all documents, and the performance of all other acts necessary to accomplish such purpose. Section 4: To be Obtained by Owners. Insurance coverage on furnishings or other property belonging to an Owner and public liability coverage shall be the sole and direct responsibility of the Owner thereof, and the Board, Association, and/or the managing agent of the Association shall have no responsibility therefor. Section 5: Prohibition of Certain Activities. Nothing shall be done or kept in any Unit or upon the Common Elements or any part thereof, which would result in the cancellation of the insurance maintained by the Association, or increase the rate of the insurance maintained by the 11-10-15 v.2 42 Association without the prior, written consent of the Board. Hazardous materials of any kind shall not be allowed within any Unit or upon the Common Elements. ARTICLE XVI. DESTRUCTION, DAMAGE, OR OBSOLESCENCE Section 1: Association as Attorney-in-Fact. This Declaration does hereby make mandatory the irrevocable appointment of an attorney-in-fact to deal with the Condominium Project in the event of its destruction, damage, obsolescence, or condemnation, including the repair, replacement, and improvement of any Unit or Common Elements which has been so destroyed, damage, condemned, or become obsolete. Title to any Unit is declared and expressly made subject to the terms and conditions hereof, and acceptance by any grantee of a deed or other instrument of conveyance from the Declarant or from any Owner or grantor shall constitute appointment of the attorney-in-fact herein provided. All of the Owners irrevocably constitute and appoint the Association as their true and lawful attorney-in-fact in their name, place, and stead, for the purpose of dealing with the Condominium Project upon its damage, destruction, obsolescence, or condemnation as is hereinafter provided. As attorney-in-fact, the Association, by its president and secretary or other duly authorized officers and agents, shall have full and complete authorization, right, and power to make, execute, and deliver any contract, deed, or other instrument with respect to the interest of an Owner which is necessary and appropriate to exercise the powers herein granted. In the event that the Association is dissolved or becomes defunct, a meeting of the Owners shall be held within thirty (30) days of either such event. At such meeting, a new attorney-in-fact shall be appointed to deal with the Condominium Project upon its destruction, damage, obsolescence, or condemnation. Said appointment must be approved by Majority Vote of the Owners. Repair and reconstruction of the Improvements as used in the succeeding paragraphs means restoring the Improvements to substantially the same condition in which they existed prior to the damage, with each Unit and the General and Limited Common Elements having substantially the same vertical and horizontal boundaries as before, and all Improvements being reconstructed or repaired in conformance with the Condominium Project's original architectural plan and scheme. The proceeds of any insurance collected shall be available to the Association for the purposes of repair, restoration, reconstruction, or replacement unless the Owners and First Mortgagees agree not to rebuild in accordance with the provisions hereinafter set forth. Section 2: Insurance Proceeds Sufficient for Restoration. In the event of damage or destruction due to fire or other disaster, the insurance proceeds, if sufficient to reconstruct the Improvements, shall be applied by the Association as attorney-in-fact to such reconstruction and the Improvements shall be promptly repaired and reconstructed. The Association shall have full authority, right, and power as attorney-in-fact to cause the repair and restoration of the Improvements. Assessments for Common Expenses shall not be abated during the period of insurance adjustments and repair and reconstruction. Section 3: Insurance Proceeds Insufficient for Restoration (Less Than 70 Percent). If the insurance proceeds are insufficient to repair and reconstruct the Improvements and if such damage is not more than seventy percent (70%) of the total replacement cost of all of the Units not including land, such damage or destruction shall be promptly repaired and reconstructed by the Association as attorney-in-fact using the proceeds of insurance and the proceeds of a Special Assessment to be made against all of the Owners and their Units. Such Special Assessment shall be a Common 11-10-15 v.2 43 Expense and made prorata according to each Owner's percentage share of Common Expenses and shall be due and payable within thirty (30) days after written notice thereof or as otherwise approved by the Board. The Association shall have full authority, right, and power as attorney-in-fact to cause the repair, replacement, or restoration of the Improvements using all of the insurance proceeds for such purpose, notwithstanding the failure of an Owner to pay the Special Assessment. The Special Assessment provided for herein shall be a debt of each Owner and a lien on his or her Unit. In addition thereto, the Association as attorney-in-fact shall have the absolute authority, right and power to sell the Unit of any Owner refusing or failing to pay such Special Assessment within the time provided, and if not so paid, the Association shall cause to be recorded a notice that the Unit of the delinquent Owner shall be sold by the Association as attorney-in-fact pursuant to the provisions of this section. Assessments for Common Expenses shall not be abated during the period of insurance adjustment and repair and reconstruction. The delinquent Owner shall be required to pay to the Association the costs and expenses incurred in filing the notice, interest at a rate established by the Board on the amount of the assessment, and all reasonable attorneys’ fees. The proceeds derived from the sale of such Unit shall be used and disbursed by the Association as attorney-in-fact in the following order: (a) for payment of the balance of the lien of any First Mortgagee; (b) for payment of taxes and special assessment liens in favor of any assessing entity and the customary expenses of sale; (c) for payment of unpaid Common Expenses and all costs, expenses, and fees incurred by the Association; (d) for payment of junior liens and encumbrances in the order of and to the extent of their priority; and (e) the balance remaining, if any, shall be paid to the Owner. Section 4: Insurance Proceeds Insufficient for Restoration (More Than 70 Percent). If the insurance proceeds are insufficient to repair and reconstruct the Improvements and if such damage is more than seventy percent (70%) of the total replacement cost of all of the Units not including land, such damage or destruction shall be promptly repaired and reconstructed by the Association as attorney-in-fact using the proceeds of insurance and the proceeds of a Special Assessment to be made against all of the Owners and their Units; provided, however, that Owners by Super Majority Vote may agree not to repair or reconstruct the Improvements. In such event, the Association shall record a notice setting forth such fact or facts, and upon the recording of such notice by the Association, the entire Condominium Project shall be sold by the Association as attorney-in-fact pursuant to the terms of this section, free and clear of the provisions contained in this Declaration, the Condominium Map, Articles of Incorporation, and Bylaws. Assessments for Common Expenses shall not be abated during the period prior to sale. The insurance settlement proceeds shall be divided by the Association according to each Owner's interest in the Common Elements, and such divided proceeds shall be paid into separate accounts, each account representing one of the Units. Each account shall be in the name of the Association and shall be further identified by the Unit designation and name of the Owner. From each separate account, the Association as attorney- in-fact shall use and disburse the total account toward the partial or full payment of the lien of any First Mortgagee encumbering the Unit represented by such separate account. Thereafter, each account shall be supplemented by the apportioned amount of the proceeds obtained from the sale of the entire Condominium Project. Such apportionment shall be based upon each Owner's interest in the Common Elements. The total funds of each account shall be used and disbursed, without contribution, from one account to another by the Association as attorney-in-fact for the same purposes and in the same order as provided in Section 3 of this Article XVI. In the event that the damage is to be repaired or reconstruction is to be made, then the provisions of Section 3 of this Article XVI shall apply. 11-10-15 v.2 44 Section 5: Obsolescence (Renew/Reconstruct). The Owners by Super Majority Vote may agree that the Common Elements are obsolete and adopt a plan for the renewal and reconstruction. If a plan for the renewal or reconstruction is adopted, notice of such plan shall be recorded and the expense of renewal and reconstruction shall be payable by all of the Owners as a Common Expense, whether or not they have previously consented to the plan of renewal and reconstruction. The Association as attorney-in-fact shall have the absolute right and power to sell the Unit of any Owner refusing or failing to pay such Assessment within the time provided, and if not so paid, the Association shall cause to be recorded a notice that the Unit of the delinquent Owner shall be sold by the Association. The delinquent Owner shall be required to pay to the Association the costs and expenses for filing the notices, interest at a rate established by the Board and all reasonable attorneys’ fees. The proceeds derived from the sale of such Unit shall be used and disbursed by the Association as attorney-in-fact for the same purposes and in the same order as is provided in Section 3 of this Article XVI. Nothing contained in the foregoing shall be construed to prevent or prohibit the Association acting through the Board from renovating the Common Elements as part of scheduled or ongoing maintenance and repair. Section 6: Obsolescence (Sell). The Owners by a Super Majority Vote may agree that the Units are obsolete and should be sold. In such instance, the Association shall record a notice setting forth such fact or facts, and upon the recording of such notice of the Association, the entire Condominium Project shall be sold by the Association as attorney-in-fact, free and clear of the provisions contained in this Declaration, the Condominium Map, the Articles of Incorporation, and the Bylaws. The sale proceeds shall be apportioned among the Owners on the basis of each Owner's interest in the Common Elements, and such apportioned proceeds shall be paid into separate accounts, each account representing one of the Units. Each account shall be in the name of the Association and shall be further identified by the Unit designation and name of the Owner. From each separate account, the Association as attorney-in-fact shall use and disburse the total account, without contribution from one account to another, for the same purposes and in the same order as provided in Section 3 of this Article XVI. ARTICLE XVII. CONDEMNATION If at any time during the continuance of the condominium ownership pursuant to this Declaration, all or any part of the Condominium Project shall be taken or condemned by any public authority or sold or otherwise disposed of in lieu of or in avoidance thereof, the following provisions shall apply: Section 1: Proceeds. All compensation, damages, or other proceeds therefrom (“the Condemnation Award”) shall be payable to the Association. The Association shall represent the Owners in the condemnation proceedings or in the negotiation, settlements, and agreements with the condemning authority for acquisition of the Common Elements or any part thereof by the condemning authority. All of the Owners hereby irrevocably constitute and appoint the Association as their true and lawful attorney-in-fact, in their name, place, and stead, for the purpose of dealing with the Condominium Project upon such condemnation as herein set forth. In the event of a taking or acquisition of part or all of the Common Elements by a condemning authority, the Condemnation 11-10-15 v.2 45 Award shall be payable to the Association to be held in trust for the Owners and First Mortgagees as their interests may appear. Section 2: Complete Taking. (a) In the event the entire Condominium Project is taken or condemned or is sold or otherwise disposed of in lieu of or avoidance thereof, the condominium ownership pursuant to this Declaration shall terminate. The Condemnation Award shall be apportioned among the Owners on the same basis as each Owner's interest in the Common Elements; provided, however, that if a standard different from the value of the Condominium Project as a whole is employed as the measure of the Condemnation Award in the negotiation, judicial decree, or otherwise, then in determining such shares, the same standard shall be employed to the extent it is relevant and applicable. (b) On the basis of the principle set forth in the last preceding paragraph, the Association shall, as soon as practicable, determine the share of the Condemnation Award to which each Owner is entitled. Such shares shall be paid into separate accounts and disbursed as soon as practicable in the same manner provided in Article XVI, Section 3 hereinabove. Section 3: Partial Taking. In the event less than the entire Condominium Project is taken or condemned or is sold or otherwise disposed of in lieu of or in avoidance thereof, the condominium ownership hereunder shall not terminate. Each Owner shall be entitled to a share of the Condemnation Award as determined in this section. As soon as practicable, the Association shall reasonably and in good faith allocate the Condemnation Award between compensation, damages, or other proceeds and shall apportion the amounts so allocated among the Owners as follows: (a) the total amount allocated to taking of or injury to the Common Elements shall be apportioned among the Owners on the basis of each Owner's interest respectively in the Common Elements; (b) the total amount allocated to severance damages shall be apportioned to those Units which were not taken or condemned; (c) the respective amounts allocated to the taking of or injury to a particular Unit and to the Improvements an Owner has made within his or her own Unit shall be apportioned to the particular Unit involved; and (d) the total amount allocated to consequential damages and any other takings or injuries shall be apportioned as the Association determines to be equitable in the circumstances. If the allocation of the Condemnation Award is already established in negotiations, judicial decree, or otherwise, then in allocating the Condemnation Award, the Association shall employ such allocation to the extent it is relevant and applicable. Distribution of apportioned proceeds shall be disbursed as soon as practicable in the same manner provided in Article XVI, Section 3 hereinabove. Section 4: Reorganization. In the event a partial taking results in the taking of a complete Unit, the Owner thereof shall automatically cease to be a member of the Association; shall cease to hold any right, title, or interest in the remaining Common Elements; and shall execute any and all documents necessary to accomplish the same. Thereafter, the Association shall reallocate the ownership, voting rights, and assessment ratio in accordance with this Declaration at its inception and shall submit such reallocation to the Owners of remaining Units for amendment to this Declaration as provided in Article XIII hereinabove. 11-10-15 v.2 46 Section 5: Reconstruction and Repair. Any reconstruction and repair necessitated by condemnation shall be governed by the procedures specified in Article XVI hereinabove. ARTICLE XVIII. GENERAL PROVISIONS Section 1: Enforcement. Subject to the Dispute Resolution provisions of Article IV, Section 8 of this Declaration, enforcement of this Declaration shall be by appropriate proceedings at law or in equity against those Persons violating or attempting to violate any covenant, condition, or restriction herein contained. Such judicial proceeding shall be for the purpose of removing a violation, restraining a future violation, for recovery of damages for any violation, or for such other and further relief as may be available. Such judicial proceedings may be prosecuted by an Owner or by the Association. In the event it becomes necessary to commence an action to enforce this Declaration, the court shall award to the prevailing party in such litigation, in addition to such damages as the court may deem just and proper, an amount equal to the costs and reasonable attorney's fees incurred by the prevailing party in connection with such litigation. The failure to enforce or to cause the abatement of any violation of this Declaration shall not preclude or prevent the enforcement thereof or of a further or continued violation, whether such violation shall be of the same or of a different provision of this Declaration. Section 2: Duration. This Declaration shall run with the Real Estate and all the Units, shall be binding upon all persons owning Units and any persons hereafter acquiring said Units, and shall be in effect in perpetuity unless amended or terminated as provided in this Declaration and CCIOA.

Section 4: Time. In computing any period of time prescribed or allowed by this Declaration, the date of the act, event, or default from which the designated period of time begins to run shall not be included. The last day of the period so computed shall be included unless it is a Saturday, a Sunday, or a legal holiday, in which event the period runs until the end of the next day which is not a Saturday, a Sunday, or a legal holiday. For purposes of this Declaration, a day shall end at 5 p.m. Section 5: Obligations Subject to Appropriation.

Box 580 Fort Collins, CO 80522 OPTION AGREEMENT FOR EXCHANGE OF REAL PROPERTY THIS AGREEMENT is made and entered into this ____ day of __________, 20__, by and between THE CITY OF FORT COLLINS, a Colorado municipal corporation, whose address is 300 LaPorte Avenue, Fort Collins, Colorado, 80521 (“City”), and _____________, a Colorado ________________, whose address is _________________ (“Owner”). WITNESSETH: For and in consideration of the promises of the parties in the Construction and Purchase Agreement dated _________, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which are hereby confessed and acknowledged, the parties agree to exchange certain real property at the option of the City subject to the terms and conditions set forth below. 1. Description of Real Property. The City is the owner of the real property described as _______________ (the “City Unit”). The Owner is the owner of the real property described as ________________ (the “Owner Unit”). The City Unit and Owner Unit are referred to together as the “Units”. The Units include any improvements located therein, including all fixtures of a permanent nature and all other rights in and appurtenances to such Units. 2. Option Terms. A. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Owner grants to the City an option (the “Option”) to exchange the City Unit for the Owner Unit. The term of the Option is 50 years. B. The City may exercise the Option by delivery to Owner or Owner’s representative, at the address set forth hereafter, a statement in writing signed by or on behalf of the City exercising the Option (the “Notice of Exercise”). Upon delivery of the Notice of Exercise, this Agreement shall become an agreement of purchase and sale of the Units between Owner and City. 3. Method of Conveyance. The Owner agrees to convey to the City, and the City agrees to acquire from the Owner, the Owner Unit subject to the terms and conditions as set forth herein, upon the City’s exercise of its Option therefor. As consideration for such conveyance, the City agrees to convey to the Owner, and the Owner agrees to acquire from the City, the City Unit, subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein. Each Unit shall be conveyed at the time of closing (the “Closing”) by special warranty deed, free and clear of all liens and encumbrances, except and subject to the following: A. All easements, covenants, reservations, restrictions, rights-of-way and other matters of record as of the date of the Closing (such exceptions, with recording information, to be appended to the Special Warranty Deed conveying such Unit); B. Any restrictions, reservations or exceptions contained in any United States or State of Colorado patents of record; C. All zoning and other governmental rules and regulations; D. Statutory lien rights resulting from the inclusion of the Property in any special taxing district or improvement districts; E. All oil, gas or other mineral reservations or exceptions of record; F. General property taxes, assessments and charges, if applicable for the tax year of the subject closing (which shall be prorated as of the date of Closing) and said taxes, assessments and charges for all subsequent years; and 4. Title Insurance. Prior to Closing each party shall have the right to acquire a title insurance commitment for the Unit it is acquiring, and to inspect and object in its sole discretion to any defects in title disclosed by such title commitment. The title commitment obtained by either party must show that the other party has marketable title to its respective Unit, subject only to those items set forth in paragraph 3 above. In the event a party’s title insurance commitment discloses title defects subject to which such party need not take title, or to which such party objects, written notice by such party shall be given to the other within fifteen (15) calendar days after receipt of the title insurance commitment (or any subsequent update or modification to such commitment). The other party shall cure such defect or objection within a reasonable amount of time, at its expense, without in any other manner affecting the terms of this Agreement. If any instrument or deposit is necessary in order to obviate a defect in or objection to title, the following shall apply: (a) any such instrument shall be in such form and shall contain such terms and conditions as may be reasonably required by the title insurance company so as to satisfy said company sufficiently for it to omit such defect or objection; (b) any such deposit shall be made with the title insurance company; and (c) the such party agrees to execute, acknowledge and deliver any such instrument and to make any such deposit. In the event said title insurance company refuses to omit any title defect or objection prior to the Closing, or in the event a party is unable through reasonable good faith efforts to cure any title objection, then the objecting party shall, at its election, have the right to accept such title as the other party is able to convey, without any additional consideration; or shall have the right to rescind this Agreement, and the parties shall be released from all obligations hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if one party is unable to convey marketable title to its Unit due to its own act or omission, such party shall be in default and shall continue to be liable hereunder. . 5. Inspection. Each party shall have the right to inspect the physical condition of the other party’s Unit and the improvements located thereon, and any other matters which such party determines in its discretion may affect the other Unit or such party’s intended use thereof, at such party’s expense. Inspections may include, but shall not be limited to, inspections regarding compliance with any environmental protection, pollution or land use laws, rules or regulations. If a written notice of any unsatisfactory condition, as determined at the acquiring party’s sole discretion, signed by such party, is not received by the other party on or before twenty (20) calendar days prior to Closing, the physical condition of such Unit and the improvements located thereon shall be deemed to be satisfactory to the acquiring party. If the acquiring party gives written notice of any unsatisfactory condition, signed by the acquiring party, to the other party on or before twenty (20) calendar days prior to Closing, the other party shall either cure such conditions or this Agreement may be terminated at the option of the party giving notice. Each party is responsible and shall pay for any material damage which occurs to the other party’s Unit and the improvements located thereon as a result of such inspections. 6. “AS-IS” Nature of Sale. Except as otherwise stated herein, the parties agree that neither party has made, they do not make, and specifically negate and disclaim any representations, warranties, promises, covenants, agreements or guarantees of any kind or character whatsoever, whether express or implied, oral or written, past, present or future, concerning their own Units and: (a) the value, nature, quality or condition of such Units; (b) the income to be derived from such Units; (c) the suitability of the Units for any and all activities and uses which the other party may conduct thereon; (d) compliance by either Unit, or of its operation and use, with all applicable statutes, laws, ordinances, rules or regulations of any governmental authority or body having jurisdiction; (e) the habitability, merchantability, marketability, profitability or fitness for a particular purpose of either Unit; (f) the manner or quality of the construction or materials, if any, incorporated into the Units; (g) the manner, quality, state of repair or lack of repair of the Units; or (h) any other matter with respect to their respective Units. Each party further acknowledges and agrees that having been given the opportunity to inspect the other Unit before taking title to it, each party is relying solely on its own investigations and not on any information provided or to be provided by the other party. The parties further acknowledge and agree that to the maximum extent permitted by law, the exchange of the Units as provided for herein is made on an “AS IS” condition and basis with all faults. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each party represents to the other that it has no actual knowledge of any adverse material defects or facts which would be reasonably material to other party in determining whether to complete the transaction described in this Agreement. 7. Closing. Closing shall be held within sixty (60) days following delivery of the Notice of Exercise, at 2:00 p.m. at Land Title Company, 772 Whalers Way, Fort Collins, Colorado 80525, or at such other reasonable time, date or location as the parties may mutually agree upon. 8. Possession. Possession of each Unit shall be delivered to its acquiring party upon Closing. 9. Proration.

Closing fees shall be apportioned in accordance with local practice. 10. Remedies on Default. If either party fails to perform according to the terms of this Agreement, such party may be declared in default. The non-defaulting party may give written notice specifying such default to the defaulting party, and shall allow the defaulting party a period of thirty (30) days within which to cure the default. If the event the default is not corrected, the party declaring default may elect to (a) terminate the Agreement and seek damages; (b) treat the Agreement as continuing and require specific performance; or (c) avail itself of any other remedy at law or in equity. 11. Legal Fees and Costs. If either of the parties defaults in any of its covenants or obligations under this Agreement and the party not in default commences and prevails in any legal or equitable action against the substantially defaulting party, the defaulting party expressly agrees to pay all reasonable expenses of said litigation, including a reasonable sum for legal fees including attorneys' fees. 12. Governing Law. This Agreement is made in and shall be construed and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of Colorado. 13. Notices. Any notice or other communication given by either party hereto to the other relating to this Agreement shall be hand delivered or sent by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, or by overnight commercial courier, addressed to such other party at their respective address as set forth below, and such notice or other communication shall be deemed given when so hand delivered, on the next day if sent by overnight courier, or on the third business day after when mailed.

Casualty. In the event that either Unit is substantially damaged by fire, flood, drought or casualty between the date of the Notice of Exercise and the date of Closing, this Agreement may, at the option of either party, be declared null and void and of no further force or effect; and the parties to this Agreement shall be released from all obligations hereunder. 16.

Assignment. This Agreement and the parties’ rights and obligations hereunder shall not be assigned by either of the parties hereto without the prior written consent of the other party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

In addition, this Agreement may be executed initially by facsimile counterpart copies, and upon receipt of the same, shall be deemed legally enforceable. Thereafter, original signatures shall be obtained and substituted for facsimiles. 25. Cooperation.
