City of Fort Collins Page 3 1. Consideration and Approval of the Minutes of the March 15, 2016 Regular Council Meeting. The purpose of this item is to approve the minutes from the March 15, 2016 Regular Council meeting. 2. Second Reading of Ordinance No. 029, 2016, Authorizing the Acquisition by Eminent Domain Proceedings of Certain Lands Necessary to Construct Public Improvements in Connection with the Northeast College Corridor Outfall Project and the Lemay Avenue and Suniga Road Right-of-Way Alignment. This Ordinance, unanimously adopted on First Reading on March 1, 2016, authorizes the use of eminent domain, if deemed necessary, to acquire property interests needed to construct stormwater improvements associated with the Northeast College Corridor Outfall Project and the right-of-way alignment of Lemay Avenue and Suniga Road. The City Utility and the City Engineering Department are collaborating on the design and implementation of two projects to provide public infrastructure in the area lying east of College Avenue and north of Vine Drive. The Northeast College Corridor Outfall Project (NECCO) will construct storm drainage improvements, including an underground pipe and detention pond, with the purpose of providing a regional stormwater outfall to serve the area east of College Avenue and north of Vine Drive. Additionally, the City is designing right-of-way improvements associated with the alignment of Lemay Avenue and Suniga Road in accordance with the City’s Master Street Plan. The overlapping alignment of the two projects has created an opportunity for the City to acquire the property interests necessary to construct the NECCO project in a timely manner, as well as, procure the right-of-way interests for the future construction of the Lemay Avenue and Suniga Road intersection. In order for the City to construct these improvements, the City will need to acquire certain property interests adjacent to the project area from three property owners. The acquisitions will include fee simple parcels, permanent easements for drainage, utilities, and elevation changes (slope easements), and temporary construction easements. Timely acquisition of the property is necessary to meet the anticipated construction schedule for the NECCO. Staff fully intends to negotiate in good faith with the affected owners and is optimistic that all property negotiations can be completed prior to the start of the Project. Staff is requesting authorization of eminent domain for all property acquisitions for the Project, only if such action is deemed necessary. 3. Items Relating to the Financial Officer's Compromise and Settlement of Disputed Sales, Use and Lodging Tax Claims. A. Second Reading of Ordinance No. 031, 2016, Repealing and Reenacting Section 25-198 of the Code of the City of Fort Collins to Authorize the City’s Financial Officer to Compromise and Settle Claims the City Has Against Taxpayers for the Payment of Sales and Use Taxes. B. Second Reading of Ordinance No. 032, 2016, Repealing and Reenacting Section 25-284 of the Code of the City of Fort Collins to Authorize the City’s Financial Officer to Compromise and Settle Claims the City Has Against Taxpayers for the Payment of the Lodging Tax. These Ordinances, unanimously adopted on First Reading on March 15, 2016, amends City Code to grant the Financial Officer the authority to compromise and settle any actually assessed or potential claim to sales, use and lodging taxes and their related penalties and interest due to the City under Chapter 25 in an amount up to $100,000 and in excess of $100,000 with the City Manager’s approval. The Financial Officer will be required to prepare and retain in Financial Services’ files a written opinion explaining the Financial Officer’s reasons for compromising and settling the claim. A written settlement agreement will also be required for all settlements in excess of $2,500. For Second Reading, the Ordinances have been amended to reflect that in the event the City Manager approves the opinion of the Financial Officer, the City Manager shall notify City Council in writing of such settlement. City of Fort Collins Page 4 4. Second Reading of Ordinance No. 033, 2016, Amending Chapter 17 of the Code of the City of Fort Collins to Update the Nuisance Gathering Provision. This Ordinance, unanimously adopted on First Reading on March 15, 2016, amends City Code to update the 2005 nuisance gathering provision to aid law enforcement in effectively addressing problem properties where social gatherings or parties result in unlawful behaviors. 5. Second Reading of Ordinance No. 034, 2016, Amending Section 23-354 of the Code of the City of Fort Collins Regarding Income Targets for the Land Bank Program. This Ordinance, unanimously adopted on First Reading on March 15, 2016, amends City Code to allow communities developed on parcels from the Land Bank Program to be targeted to rental households making 60% area median income, as long as the overall community targets still average no more than 50% area median income. While this does increase the allowable income limits for some units to add flexibility, it requires the resulting community to meet the original target range overall. 6. Second Reading of Ordinance No. 035, 2016, Amending the Code of the City of Fort Collins to Clarify On-Bill Utility Financing Terms and Increase the Outstanding Loan Balance Available for the On-Bill Utility Loan Program. This Ordinance, unanimously adopted on First Reading on March 15, 2016, revises the available capital funds for On-Bill Financing (OBF) program from Utilities reserve funds and clarifies interest rate language in relevant Utilities rate ordinances. Between July 2015 and December 2015, the rate of loan participation in the Home Efficiency Loan Program (HELP, aka OBF) increased by 500% over the previous 2+ years. OBF capital comes from Light & Power and Water reserve funds, with the source being determined by the project type. The funding is a “balance sheet transaction,” where the funds are accounted for by moving from reserves to accounts receivable. As such, loan funding is not a typical expenditure or a budget item. Council has authorized Utilities to maintain a maximum outstanding balance of $800,000 for the loan program. Based on staff’s recommendation, the Ordinance would increase the maximum outstanding balance limit to $1.6M. The additional funding would be loaned at a 4% interest rate, which is within the range approved by Council for the program in January 2015 and remains the Chief Financial Officer’s recommendation. Staff plans to return to Council in conjunction with the 2017 rate ordinance with options and recommendations for potential transition to third party capital for OBF. 7. Second Reading of Ordinance No. 036, 2016, Annexing the Property Known as the Maverik First Annexation to the City of Fort Collins, Colorado. This Ordinance, unanimously adopted on First Reading on March 15, 2016, annexes 1.26 acres located at 4333 East Mulberry Street at the southeast quadrant of I-25 and State Highway 14. The parcel is a portion of the America’s Best Value and Inn and Suites hotel. The Initiating Resolution was adopted on February 9, 2016. The property is located within the I-25 Corridor Plan. A related item to zone the annexed property is presented as the next item on this Agenda. 8. Second Reading of Ordinance No. 037, 2016, Amending the Zoning Map of the City of Fort Collins and Classifying for Zoning Purposes the Property Included in the Maverik First Annexation to the City of Fort Collins. This Ordinance, unanimously adopted on First Reading on March 15, 2016, zones the property included in the Maverik First Annexation into the General Commercial zone district. This item is a quasi-judicial matter and if it is considered on the discussion agenda it will be considered in accordance with the procedures described in Section 1(d) of the Council’s Rules of Meeting Procedures adopted in Resolution 2015-091. City of Fort Collins Page 5 9. Second Reading of Ordinance No. 038, 2016, Authorizing the Conveyance of an Access Easement on City Property to Peter and Crystal Harper. This Ordinance, unanimously adopted on First Reading on March 15, 2016, authorizes the conveyance of an access easement on City property to a property owner to use as a driveway access to their residential property. The City of Fort Collins owns a property on Highway 14 near the Munroe Tunnel, upstream from the Water Treatment Plant #1 property. The property was purchased in 1977 in order to manage and protect the City’s water supply. The Harpers own a property adjacent to the City property on which they are building a residential home. The Harpers discovered that a portion of the driveway constructed for their home encroached on the City property. The property owners ceased construction and contacted the City of Fort Collins Real Estate Department to acknowledge the encroachment and request an easement. This Ordinance authorizes City staff to process the conveyance of an access easement to Mr. and Mrs. Harper for the 8,400 square foot area of encroachment of the driveway. 10. Second Reading of Ordinance No. 039, 2016, Appropriating General Fund Reserves for the Construction of a Pedestrian Underpass at Foothills Parkway and College Avenue and Authorizing the City Manager to Enter Into Related Agreements. This Ordinance, unanimously adopted on First Reading on March 15, 2016, appropriates funds to partially fund the construction of the pedestrian underpass at Foothills Parkway and College Avenue as part of the Foothills Mall Redevelopment Project. The Ordinance appropriates $150,000 of City funds from General Fund Reserves and also appropriates another $300,000 from the General Fund Reserves representing monies the City anticipates to soon receive from the Colorado Department of Transportation (CDOT). The underpass project has exceeded the original cost estimated by $600,000. As a result, CDOT has agreed to fund $300,000 of this cost overrun under an intergovernmental agreement with the City (the “CDOT IGA”). Walton Foothills Holdings VI, LLC (the Developer) has requested the City of Fort Collins cover $150,000 of the cost overruns with the Developer contributing the remaining $150,000. The Ordinance also authorizes the City Manager, after consultation with the City Attorney, to enter into the amendment to the Foothills Mall Redevelopment and Reimbursement Agreement and the CDOT intergovernmental agreement that will both be needed to facilitate this additional funding. 11. First Reading of Ordinance No. 040, 2016, Reappropriating Funds Previously Appropriated in 2015 But Not Expended and Not Encumbered in 2015. City Council authorized expenditures in 2015 for various purposes. Some of these authorized expenditures were not spent or could not be encumbered in 2015 because:  there was not sufficient time to complete bidding in 2015 and therefore, there was no known vendor or binding contract as required to expend or encumber the monies, or  the project for which the dollars were originally appropriated by Council could not be completed during 2015 and reappropriation of those dollars is necessary for completion of the project in 2016. The other unexpended funds are needed to carry on programs, services, and facility improvements in 2016 with unspent dollars previously appropriated in 2015 for these purposes. In the above circumstances, the unexpended and/or unencumbered monies lapsed into individual fund balances at the end of 2015 and reflect no change in Council policies. Monies reappropriated for each City fund by this Ordinance are as follows: General Fund $ 1,102,694 Golf Fund 40,329 Keep Fort Collins Great Fund 1,027,535 Light & Power Fund 276,088 Recreation Fund 91,260 Transportation Fund 84,209 CS&A Fund 187,000 $ 2,809,115 City of Fort Collins Page 6 12. First Reading of Ordinance No. 041, 2016, Appropriating Prior Year Reserves and Unanticipated Revenue in the General Fund for Cultural Development and Programming Activities, Tourism Programming, and Convention and Visitor Program Services. The purpose of this item is to appropriate $378,605, of which $159,265 is proposed for 2016 Cultural Development and Programming Activities (Fort Fund), $19,868 is proposed for 2016 Tourism Programming (Fort Fund), and $199,472 is proposed for 2016 Convention and Visitors Program activities, from a combination of Unanticipated Revenue (Lodging Tax) and Prior Year Reserves (unspent appropriations) in the General Fund Lodging Tax Reserves. Lodging taxes are annually collected by the City of Fort Collins for Cultural Development and Tourism Programming activities. Between April 2011 and March 2016, based on the prior years’ actual collections, lodging tax revenues were paid to the Fort Collins Convention and Visitors Bureau (the “FCCVB”) under a contract for Cultural Development and Tourism Programming. Anticipated revenue has been projected through each Budgeting for Outcomes (BFO) cycle and then adjusted annually as needed based on actual collections. Lodging Tax revenues collected in 2015 equaled $1,450,960, which was $378,605 above projected collections. 13. First Reading of Ordinance No. 042, 2016, Appropriating Prior Year Reserves in the General Fund for Pool Chlorination System Conversion at Three City of Fort Collins Pools. The purpose of this item is to appropriate $200,000 from prior year reserves in the General Fund to switch pool chlorination systems from chlorine gas to liquid chlorine. During a routine safety audit of the City pools, it was discovered that gaseous chlorine is being used to treat the pool water at all City pools except the Senior Center pool. As safety standards have evolved, best practice is to avoid gaseous chlorine due to the hazard posed to employees and citizens in the event of a failure incident. Conversion of the three City pools now using chlorine gas will enable the City to follow this updated best practice. 14. First Reading of Ordinance No. 043, 2016, Authorizing the Acquisition by Eminent Domain Proceedings of Certain Lands Necessary to Construct Public Improvements in Connection with the Prospect Road and College Avenue Intersection Improvements Project. The purpose of this item is to obtain authorization from City Council to use eminent domain, if deemed necessary, to acquire property interests needed to construct improvements to the intersection of Prospect Road and College Avenue. The authorization is only for the six commercial properties at this location. There are two residential properties at the east end of the project that are not included here since work is still underway to further define impacts. These properties will be brought to Council at a later date for authorization. The Prospect Road and College Avenue Intersection Improvements Project is a collaborative project between the City of Fort Collins and Colorado State University (CSU). The project will construct road and intersection improvements, multimodal enhancements, utility improvements, and access control improvements. On the west leg of the intersection, these improvements are consistent with the recommendations in the West Central Corridor Plan. Colorado State University (CSU) is developing a medical center on property they own at the northwest corner of the College Avenue and Prospect Road intersection. This development will require the construction of road improvements adjacent to their development and within Prospect Road. The improvements to be made at the northwest corner have presented an opportunity for the City to construct other needed multimodal improvements at the intersection. In order for the City to construct these improvements, the City will need to acquire certain property interests adjacent to the project area. The acquisitions will include right-of-way, permanent easements, and temporary easements from six property owners. Staff has met with the affected owners and is working to address individual property owner considerations. Timely acquisition of the property is necessary to meet the anticipated construction schedule. Staff fully intends to negotiate in good faith with the affected owners and is optimistic that all property negotiations can be completed prior to the start of the Project. Staff is requesting authorization of eminent domain for the six commercial property acquisitions for the Project only if such action is deemed necessary. City of Fort Collins Page 7 15.

The grant applications will be submitted April 2016. Colorado Department of Transportation (CDOT) is preparing a Transportation Investment Generating Economic Recovery (TIGER) grant, while the North Front Range Metropolitan Planning Organizations (NFRMPO) is preparing a FASTLANE GRANT. Repairs and improvements sought are in accordance with the final adopted recommendations of the North I-25 Environmental Impact Study (2011). 16.

Resolution 2016-031 Finding Substantial Compliance and Initiating Annexation Proceedings for the Mountain's Edge Annexation. The purpose of this item is to annex the Mountain’s Edge First Annexation. The applicant, The Landhuis Company c/o Mr. Jeff Mark, has submitted a written petition requesting annexation of 18.516 acres located at 2430 South Overland Trail which presently contains one single family home.

Resolution 2016-032 Finding Substantial Compliance and Initiating Annexation Proceedings for the East Prospect at Boxelder Creek Annexation. The purpose of this item is to initiate annexation proceedings for a segment of East Prospect Road right-of-way, located east of Summitview Drive and west of the Interstate 25 frontage road. The segment consists of two sections of property for which the City accepted deeds of dedication of right- of-way on March 15, 2016, and two sections of Larimer County right-of-way that are located in the current alignment of East Prospect Road. The segment is 1,084 feet in length and totals 1.76 acres. The two owners of the property the City recently accepted as right-of-way, the Glanzs and K&M Company LLLP, have signed the annexation petition. Larimer County staff has stated that the County is amenable to the annexation of this County right-of-way. The annexation is related to a City utility and street project to construct improvements at the crossing over Boxelder Creek by East Prospect Road.
