City Council OFF-SITE Work Session Saturday, October 11, 2014 8:00 AM 7:30-8:00 Breakfast 8:00-10:00 BOB2.0 Project Discussion 10:00-10:15 Break 10:15-10:45 Street Maintenance and Vine and Lemay Discussion 10:45-11:45 Budget Discussion 11:45-12:00 Wrap-Up DATE: STAFF: October 11, 2014 Ginny Sawyer, Policy and Project Manager Darin Atteberry, City Manager WORK SESSION ITEM City Council SUBJECT FOR DISCUSSION Saturday Off-Site Session Renewal of the ¼-Cent Community Capital Improvement Program and the ¼ Cent Street Maintenance Tax and Budget Discussion EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The purpose of this item is to provide materials and recommendations for Council to consider as the Building on Basics (BOB) 2.0 renewal and the Street Maintenance Program renewal move forward. GENERAL DIRECTION SOUGHT AND SPECIFIC QUESTIONS TO BE ANSWERED 1. Does Council support the proposed $80M dollar BOB 2.0 project list? What changes should be considered? 2. Does Council support seeking a 10-year renewal of the Street Maintenance Program? 3. Does Council support a separate 5-year, ¼ cent initiative dedicated to Vine and Lemay and South Timberline road improvements on the April 2015 ballot? BACKGROUND / DISCUSSION The current capital expansion tax, Building on Basics (BOB) and the Street Maintenance Program tax (SMP) will expire on December 31, 2015. The Fort Collins community has supported street maintenance through a ¼-cent tax since 1989. This quarter- cent tax covers roughly half of the Street Maintenance Program’s costs. Other program funding includes Keep Fort Collins Great money and the General Fund. The Street Maintenance Program maximizes the community’s investment in the street network by performing ongoing maintenance before much more costly repairs or replacement are necessary, extending the usable life of a street. The Street Maintenance Program repairs over 130 lane miles of roads each year. Fort Collins also has a long history of supporting a capital tax program. BOB is a ¼ -cent tax which equates to 25-cents on a $100 purchase. Over the 10-year period (2005 to 2015), BOB will provide almost $58 million dollars for investment in community projects. These dollars have supported the Lincoln Center renovations, the Museum of Discovery, new bike facilities, improvements to North College and Timberline, sidewalk upgrades, and the Senior Center expansion. Per previous Council direction, both of these tax renewals are planned to be presented to the voters in April 2015. SMP Staff is currently recommending that the Street Maintenance renewal be a 10-year renewal. While there was some public support and Council interest in extending the term, a 15-year renewal results in three potential renewals (SMP, KFCG and Open Space) in the same years. A 20- year term is better in relation to future renewals; however, it is unclear as to whether the majority of voters would be willing to support a 20-year term.

The current project descriptions have been further refined since previous Council meetings. Some projects have cost reductions and others have been split into smaller projects to allow for more options in putting an overall package together. Staff has created a recommended a drilling platform based on Council feedback, public input, and staff work. The drilling platform document shows recommended projects in white, totaling just over $80M in capital costs. The unfunded projects are shown in gray, also listed in recommended priority order.. MAJOR ROAD IMPROVEMENTS The City has two large road projects on the capital needs list - Vine and Lemay between Lincoln Avenue and the Realigned Vine Drive ($25M) and Timberline Road from Stetson Creek to Trilby Road ($12M). City Council has expressed interest in pursuing separate funding for these projects, and while testing this idea during public outreach, there appears to be general citizen support for pursuing this as a separate measure. Both projects could be funded with a new ¼ cent tax that would be in place for five years. Timeline Next Steps December Work Session: Tuesday, December 9 Goal: Finalize BOB 2.0 package. January Regular Meeting: Tuesday, January 6 Goal: Adopt Resolution referring ballot language to April 2015 ballot. Staff will continue to engage the public through the January.

$200K for the lap pool; $1M for the competitive pool Service Area: Community Services Department: Recreation Services Project Location: Directly west of Fossil Ridge High School or at Fossil Creek Community Park Project Descriptions: Option A: Community Creative Center Cost: $10M/ O&M: $200K A 16,000 sq. ft. leading edge Community Center focused on inspiring creativity through innovation, technology, art, physical health and idea sharing. The multifaceted and unique complex will serve as a center for the community to create, share and interact while providing access to new and emerging technology, collaborative opportunities and learning experiences. The Center will include space for citizens to convene, collaborate and create. The spaces will be functional, open and equipped with features to help promote successful creativity. The Center will also provide an opportunity for community members to express their creativity through art exhibitions and project displays. The Center will feature a unique approach to idea building and creativity by encouraging a connection to nature and physical activity. The Center’s surrounding park environment (SE Park or Fossil Creek Park) will complement the core concept of the project by strongly linking discovery, nature, physical activity and creativity. The center’s location will be positioned to allow future expansion based on the community’s need and growth. A southeast community center is included in the 2008 Parks and Recreation Policy Plan and the 2008 Cultural Facilities Plan. Option B: Outdoor Leisure Pool, Indoor Lap Pool Cost: $4.5M/ O&M: $200K This Option adds a large outdoor leisure pool with water slides, sprays and jets, decks, a lazy river and open swimming area, plus an indoor 4 lane, 25 meter cool water indoor fitness swimming pool to the Community Creative Center. Funding for the leisure pool is contingent on the community raising $1.7M for the indoor lap pool through fund-raising efforts. Option C: Indoor Competitive Pool Cost: $ 4.5M/ O&M: $1M This Option adds a 10 lane, 50 meter cool water indoor competitive pool with spectator seating to the Community Creative Center and Outdoor Leisure Pool. Funding for the leisure pool is contingent on the community raising $12.7M for the indoor competitive pool through fund-raising efforts. Why is this Project Needed? Southeast Fort Collins is rapidly growing but it does not have a community center. To improve their quality of life and to create a sense of place, citizens in the southeast need an accessible, safe, convenient and interesting place to convene, socialize and collaborate. This center will support and enhance our community’s desire to create, invent and share ideas while celebrating the entrepreneurial and pioneering values that have always been a part of Fort Collins. The Center will be a destination built on our community’s vibrant history of creativity while simultaneously embracing a future of innovation. This center, in combination with the surrounding park, will ATTACHMENT 2 Packet Pg. 7 Attachment1.2: Project Descriptions (2481 : Saturday Off-Site Session) CULTURE AND RECREATION 2 | P a g e 10/7/2014 HIGHLIGHTED PROJECTS ARE CURRENTLY RECOMMENDED define this rapidly growing area as the epicenter for community-based ideas and innovation. Including a leisure pool takes the project to a new level by providing exciting, fun and healthy aquatic recreation for the whole family. Including the lap pool complements the leisure pool and the Creative Center by providing year-round fitness swimming and a great location for learn to swim classes and other programs. The competitive pool would replace the lap pool and provide an additional location for School District and other competitive swim teams to practice and hold meets. CR2 PROJECT TITLE: Water Sustainability Improvements for Parks and Golf ESTIMATED PROJECT COST: $4.2M ESTIMATED ANNUAL O&M: $10K Service Area: Community Services Department/Program: Parks and PP&D Project Location: Various parks and SouthRidge Golf Course Project Descriptions: Option A: SouthRidge Golf Course Irrigation System Cost: $2.2M/ O&M 10K This project saves 7 million gallons of water each year by replacing the 30 year old irrigation system at SouthRidge Golf Course with a new, efficient system. Option B: Fossil Creek Community Park Synthetic Turf Cost: $1.25M This project saves 2 million gallons of water annually by installing a synthetic turf field on the oval at Fossil Creek Community Park. Option C: Conversion of Three Parks to Raw Water Irrigation Cost: $750K This project saves 20 million gallons of treated water each year by converting Lee Martinez, Avery and Soft Gold parks to raw water irrigation systems. These parks are currently irrigated with treated water. Why is this Project Needed? Option A: The 30-year-old, inefficient irrigation system for SouthRidge Golf Course has reached the end of its useful life. Replacing it with a new, efficient irrigation system will save more than 7- million gallons of water annually. The current irrigation system breaks down frequently, requiring $50,000 in annual repairs. The City’s Golf Division has been funded by earned revenue for many years but it is a break-even operation, lacking the financial resources necessary to replace the system. Most municipal golf operations do not break even, with 67% requiring General Fund support to meet expenses. The City’s General Fund has supported the Golf Division in the past, primarily related to paying a portion of the debt incurred to build SouthRidge. From 2008 through 2011 the Golf Division lost ~$240,000 and utilized reserves to balance its budget. 2012 was an exceptional weather year making up for much of the loss from the previous four years. Golf in northern Colorado is very competitive and the City has not been able to invest in our three courses to the extent needed. Funding the SouthRidge irrigation system with City capital dollars will allow fee revenues to be used to improve the overall quality of our golf courses and help ensure the Golf Division remains self-funded. Packet Pg. 8 Attachment1.2: Project Descriptions (2481 : Saturday Off-Site Session) CULTURE AND RECREATION 3 | P a g e 10/7/2014 HIGHLIGHTED PROJECTS ARE CURRENTLY RECOMMENDED Option B: The turf fields in the oval at Fossil Creek Park have never been robust due to poor soil conditions and salty irrigation water. Replacing a large area of the oval with synthetic turf will save 2 million gallons of water each year and it will greatly improve the playability of the fields. The new fields will also stand up to repeated play, so many more games can be scheduled on them. A number of synthetic turf fields have been installed in Colorado and they are highly regarded by staff and users. Synthetic fields also save on maintenance expenses by eliminating mowing and irrigation needs. Option C: Converting the irrigation systems at Martinez, Avery and Soft Golf parks to raw water saves 20 million gallons in treated water use annually. Reducing treated water consumption is a very important goal in our semi-arid environment. The conversion also reduces operating costs because raw water is much less expensive than treated water. CR3 PROJECT TITLE: Renovation of the Historic Carnegie Building ESTIMATED PROJECT COST: $2M ESTIMATED ANNUAL O&M: $10K Service Area: Community Services Department: Cultural Services Project Location: 200 Mathews Street Project Description: This project renovates the historic 1904 Carnegie library building to enhance its use as a Community Creative Center. The creative center concept includes flexible inexpensive spaces for the community to rent to support their creative endeavors. Once fully renovated, the building will house galleries, performance space, classrooms, innovative maker and idea spaces, and a digital class room. The building is currently offering rental gallery space and serving as the home for Beet Street. Fort Collins Public Access Network (FCPAN) will create a studio in the basement level of the building, allowing more of the community to access the cable station. Cultural Services partnered with Beet Street to secure a $100,000 National Endowment for the Arts Our Town grant in 2011. The grant included funds to work with an architect to develop a space use program for transitioning the building to the new community creative center. In addition, in 2012, A&E Design Associates surveyed the building to estimate historic restoration needs. The two plans call for the following work to be completed:  Uncover and restore windows  Add a main staircase to connect all three floors  Add restrooms to the main level  Create tech-rich think-space/lounge  Renovate the lower level to accommodate a studio, wet and dry classrooms, and gallery  Enlarge and outfit the lower level classroom with digital technology for live-streaming  Restore interior floors and finishes, improve HVAC, upgrade electrical, consolidate storage, and fix foundation drainage issues. Why is this project needed? The historic 1904 Carnegie building is one of the oldest, continuously operating public buildings in Fort Collins, designated a local Historic Landmark District by Resolution in 1978. The building is Packet Pg. 9 Attachment1.2: Project Descriptions (2481 : Saturday Off-Site Session) CULTURE AND RECREATION 4 | P a g e 10/7/2014 HIGHLIGHTED PROJECTS ARE CURRENTLY RECOMMENDED also a contributing structure to the Laurel School Historic District. The building is now the home of the Community Creative Center but it requires renovation and improvements to serve its new purpose, address long-term access and infrastructure issues, and to protect and stabilize this historic treasure. The Community Creative Center at the Carnegie Building is implementing the creative and innovation center concept that supports creative endeavors, provides maker and idea space, and serves as a hub for the integration and collaboration of innovation and creativity. This project will activate this prominent historic landmark building, the courtyard and the surrounding park. Additional Details: The estimated cost for this work is $2 M: $1.47 for renovations and infrastructure improvements and $430,000 for historic restoration. It is possible to apply for a grant from the State Historic Fund up to $200,000 towards historic restoration components of the overall project. CR4 PROJECT TITLE: Completion of the Gardens at the Gardens on Spring Creek ESTIMATED PROJECT COST: $2M ESTIMATED ANNUAL O&M: $20K Service Area: Community Services Department/Program: Parks Project Location: At the Gardens on Spring Creek Project Description: This project completes the gardens at the Gardens on Spring Creek by constructing 5 acres of beautiful gardens including the Great Lawn, Prairie Garden, Foothills Garden and the Xeriscape Demonstration Garden. The Great Lawn is a multi-use community venue comprised of an oval turf area surrounded by themed gardens and including a stage. It will host small concerts and plays, festivals, weddings and events. The Prairie and Foothills gardens will showcase our native plants in a landscaped setting to educate visitors and inspire them to use native plants in their gardens. The Xeriscape Demonstration Garden (to be called the Undaunted Garden) will showcase hardy, drought tolerant plants that thrive in our semi-arid environment. Why is this Project Needed? The Gardens on Spring Creek, thanks to funding from Building Community Choices and countless donations, opened in May 2004 with a mission to improve the lives of people and foster environmental stewardship through horticulture. The Gardens has become a destination for residents and tourists alike, with visitation increasing from 1,634 in 2004 to more than 55,000 in 2013. This increase is due to the addition of several large and popular gardens, the availability of high- quality educational programs for youth and adults, and a variety of special events for the community. The Gardens has 180 active volunteers and 25 partnerships with local non-profits and educational organizations. This project will build on The Gardens’ remarkable success and will establish the facility as a “must-see” destination for generations to come. The project will also enable The Gardens to significantly increase revenue through visitor fees and rental of the Great Lawn venue. The final phase for completing The Gardens on Spring Creek is a $3 million dollar expansion of the visitor center, including a conservatory. Gardens staff is currently fundraising for the expansion and for the completion of the gardens.

Service Area: Community Services Department/Program: Park Planning Project Location: Various locations along the trail system Project Descriptions: This project includes a variety of new trails and trail improvements. The projects are listed individually, with estimated costs, to provide flexible funding options. Option A: Widen and improve Spring Creek Trail between Edora Park and Shields Street Cost: $750K Option B: Complete the Poudre River Trail from the Environmental Learning Center to Arapahoe Bend Natural Area Cost: $1.5M/ O&M $14K This ~two mile section of trail completes the City’s Poudre River Trail, connecting it to the overpass of I-25 to Timnath, Windsor and on to Greeley, Colorado. Staff anticipates acquiring the land for the trail in the near future. Option C: Fossil Creek Trail from Ziegler Road to the Power Trail Cost: $250K/ O&M $11.5K This 1.75 miles of trail provides a much needed east/west trail in the rapidly developing southeast area of Fort Collins. Right of Way for the trail will be provided as the area develops, which is anticipated to occur in the next few years. The trail will help provide a safe route to schools in the area. Option D: Power Trail railroad underpass south of Harmony at Keenland Drive Cost: $900K/O&M $1K Permission from the railroad for the underpass is anticipated in the next year. Option E: Canal Trail from Horsetooth Road to Spring Creek Trail Cost: $500K/ O&M $9.75K Right of Way from development is anticipated in the next few years. Option F: Overland Road Trail from Drake Road to Poudre Trail Cost: $3M/ O&M $31.5K Right of Way for the trail is needed, primarily from CSU. Option G: Two restrooms (Poudre Trail at Taft Hill and Power Trail north of Trilby), rest stops and drinking fountains at various locations Cost: $350K/ O&M $10K Why is this Project Needed? In the recent Trail Master Plan survey, 95% of respondents said the City’s paved trail system was important or very important to their quality of life. In the 2013 Citizen Survey, 95% rated the trail system as good or very good. The Spring Creek Trail between Lemay and Shields is the most heavily used trail in our trail system but it is narrow and showing its age. Renovating and widening this trail section will improve safety and the overall trail user experience. The other trail projects Packet Pg. 11 Attachment1.2: Project Descriptions (2481 : Saturday Off-Site Session) CULTURE AND RECREATION 6 | P a g e 10/7/2014 HIGHLIGHTED PROJECTS ARE CURRENTLY RECOMMENDED complete significant gaps in the trail system. Completing these trail sections was a very high priority in the Trail Master Plan survey. Restrooms, shade and drinking fountains were also highly rated improvements in the trail survey and they enhance the trail user’s enjoyment of the trail system. CR6 PROJECT TITLE: EPIC Pool Improvements ESTIMATED PROJECT COST: $1.5M ESTIMATED ANNUAL O&M: 0 Service Area: Community and Operations Services Department/Program: Operations Services Project Location: Current EPIC location at 1801 Riverside Ave. Project Description: This project is for corrective major maintenance at EPIC pool. Several deficiencies in the pool and HVAC system need to be corrected. Examples of needed repairs are:  The gutter for the Lap Pool needs to be replaced to allow for better water circulation. The current pool turnover is at minimum value. The movable bulkheads will need to be replaced because the current ones would not work with a new gutter and are very heavy/difficult to remove. We also need to install a regenerative pool filter.  The Therapy Pool requires re-plumbing of circulation lines. Currently there is too much pressure drop for the system.  The HVAC system needs two additional units. One unit is for the bleacher area and one is to augment existing AHU-1. The air exchanges for the pool are below design standards. Why is this Project Needed? The firm Ohlson Lavoie Collaborative was contracted to perform a complete pool study on the mechanical, structural, aquatic, and operations of the EPIC spa, wader and main pool. The results of the study determined there were several major deficiencies in the pool and HVAC systems at EPIC. These deficiencies will need to be corrected in order to provide the highest quality service at the EPIC facility. CR7 PROJECT TITLE: Preserving Our Heritage: City Park Train, Club Tico Renovations, Fire Museum ESTIMATED PROJECT COST: $1M ESTIMATED ANNUAL O&M: $25K Service Area: Community Services and PFA Department/Program: Recreation and PFA Project Location: City Park and the Car Barn at Cherry and Howes Street Project Descriptions: Option A: City Park Train Cost: $350K/ O&M: 25K This project brings back the much loved City Park train in a new, expanded location east of the playground. Packet Pg. 12 Attachment1.2: Project Descriptions (2481 : Saturday Off-Site Session) CULTURE AND RECREATION 7 | P a g e 10/7/2014 HIGHLIGHTED PROJECTS ARE CURRENTLY RECOMMENDED Option B: Club Tico Renovation Cost: $250K This project completes the renovation of Club Tico at City Park by renovating the kitchen and restrooms and adding a second story deck on the south side of the facility. Option C: Creation of a Fire Museum at the Historic Car Barn Cost: $400K The volunteer supported Fire Museum would showcase historic fire engines, uniforms and equipment while telling the fascinating story of fire-fighting in Fort Collins. Why is this Project Needed? Option A: The historic train at City Park sadly reached the end of the tracks in 2011because it could no longer be operated safely. A new train on an expanded track will restore this treasured City Park experience. Option B: Club Tico is a popular dance and event venue but has been showing its age. Through donations and City support much of the facility has been renovated, including the stage and dance floor. This historic community center will realize its old glory through this final phase of restoration. It will also become a sought-after event venue once the kitchen and restrooms are upgraded. Option C: Fort Collins has a rich history of fire-fighting but we don’t have a fire museum. The Fire Museum project will showcase a wonderful collection of fire-fighting memorabilia in a great building and enrich the cultural landscape by telling the story of fire-fighting in our community. CR8 PROJECT TITLE: Velo and Fitness Park ESTIMATED PROJECT COST: $2.1M ESTIMATED ANNUAL O&M: $180K Service Area: N/A-Citizen Initiated Department/Program: N/A Project Location: TBD Project Description: The cycling and fitness park would provide a collection of key bicycle related features and non- cycling features in a single site or across multiple sites. Included would be a mountain bike track, a cyclocross course, a criterium course, a kids’ area, an Olympic size BMX course, and supporting facilities all making this a centerpiece of Fort Collins – where bicycling is a way of life. It would accommodate a wide range of abilities, with opportunities to recreate, build skills, and compete. The kids’ area could host a Bicycle Safety Town as well as tricycle and small bicycle trails, and a state of the art playground. Space would also be included for non-cycling activities such as running, skating, walking, hiking and various sports fields. A velodrome could be could be added in a later phase when funding is available. The City would own, develop, and operate the park. A single park site, or multiple combined sites, would require a minimum of 50 acres. Private funding would be raised to cover a portion of the land and construction costs. Construction phases would be based upon need and available funds. Why is this Project Needed?  These cycling features fill a major missing hole for new facilities identified in the Fort Collins Parks and Recreation Policy Plan.  Bicycling is the 6th most popular sports activity in the US according to the 2011 NSGA Sports Participation survey, yet we have only small separate BMX and trials courses in the Fort Collins parks system. Packet Pg. 13 Attachment1.2: Project Descriptions (2481 : Saturday Off-Site Session) CULTURE AND RECREATION 8 | P a g e 10/7/2014 HIGHLIGHTED PROJECTS ARE CURRENTLY RECOMMENDED  Parks Planning staff agrees this addresses Culture and Recreation Strategic Objectives: o 2.4 Maintain and enhance the current culture, recreation and parks systems. o 2.5 Plan, design and implement citywide park, recreation and trail improvements. o 2.7 Promote a healthy community and responsible access to nature. Other Related Projects (if any): FC Bikes is proposing funding for a pilot Bicycle Safety town in the 2015/2016 BFO. That project could be co-located with the Velo Park site. Additional Funding Details: Private funding, donations and partnerships expected to cover a portion of the total costs. Total includes: $1.5M for land purchase (50 acres at $30K acre using 2013 ROW purchase rate), $735K for Phase 1 construction plus facilities/parking. Costs do not include Phase 2 construction cost of $125K or additional facilities/parking of $350K. CR 9 PROJECT TITLE: Prospect and Timberline – Gateway Enhancement ESTIMATED PROJECT COST: $950K ESTIMATED ANNUAL O&M: $3K Service Area: PDT Department: Engineering Project Location: 2.2 Acres at the southwest corner of Prospect Road and Timberline Road Project Description: Option A: Property Purchase of 0.75 Acres Cost: $250K The City currently owns and maintains 29 Acres south of Prospect and west of Timberline. Major features and uses of this property are: the Timberline Substation, the eastern part of the Edora Park disc golf course, the Spring Creek, the Spring Creek Trail and the former Johnson family farm silos. Option A will purchase the 0.75 Acre, privately owned Keating parcel. The Keating parcel is bounded by Prospect, Timberline, the Spring Creek and the Great Western Railroad. Option B: Design and Construction of a 2.2 Acre Enhanced Community Space Cost: $700K After the Keating parcel purchase, the Engineering Department will lead a multi-departmental team to design and construct a 2.2 Acre Community Space at the southwest corner of the intersection. The area is bounded by Prospect, Timberline and the Great Western Railroad. The grain silos and the Spring Creek will serve as the inspirational elements for the vision of transforming the property into an interactive, well-maintained City asset. This project will enhance one of the last remaining view corridors at an arterial intersection, celebrate the history of the silos, improve the Spring Creek ecosystem, and implement concepts from the Nature in the City program. Why is this Project Needed? The Engineering Department is currently designing an intersection improvement project at Prospect and Timberline which is funded by 2013 and 2014 Building on Basics (BOB) Intersection funds. The intersection project will install a pedestrian bridge over the Spring Creek and 2,000 feet of sidewalk along the west side of Timberline. Packet Pg. 14 Attachment1.2: Project Descriptions (2481 : Saturday Off-Site Session) CULTURE AND RECREATION 9 | P a g e 10/7/2014 HIGHLIGHTED PROJECTS ARE CURRENTLY RECOMMENDED The Gateway Enhancement project is needed to:  Construct a multi-modal link between the intersection sidewalks and the Spring Creek Trail (bicycle and pedestrian connection). This site is strategically located ¼ mile from the Power Trail and ½ mile from the Poudre River Trail.  Expand water quality and biodiversity within the Spring Creek basin through Low Impact Development (LID) enhancements, proper plant selection, and stream bank reshaping.  Celebrate the history of the iconic grain silos and improve the “sense of place” along one of the main gateway corridors into Fort Collins.  Install interpretive signs which educate the public about the City’s native environment, sustainable features built into the project, and the history of the grain silos.  Promote access to nature as the number of residents continues to grow along the Timberline corridor.  Integrate Art in Public Places and Urban Design elements throughout the space. The design team consists of staff from Engineering, Planning, Storm Water, Light and Power, Parks, and Real Estate Services. The project will deliver key strategic outcomes from Community and Neighborhood Livability, Culture and Recreation, Safe Community, Environmental Health, and Transportation. This Enhanced Community Space represents a rare opportunity for the City to secure potentially developable land and create a usable, well-maintained open space adjacent to an arterial intersection. Conceptual Level designs have been developed for the Community Space.

It will replace an outdated, inadequate, and unpleasant 1980 constructed building. The intent is to welcome the public and visitors with the presence of a safe, family friendly and attractive restroom facility in the “Old-Town” area. This project will deconstruct the existing building, design, and construct a facility having seven single-occupant spaces. It will incorporate energy efficiency technologies (solar, natural lighting, photovoltaic panels). Materials selected will be low maintenance, vandal resistant, and sustainable while providing an attractive exterior and pleasing interior décor. Safety and security features will include access control. Why is this Project Needed? The existing small public restroom located at 123 Oak St. is a two occupant (1 women’s and 1 men’s) facility. It does not meet the public’s need for a pleasing and modern restroom facility. As the City strives to sustain a vibrant downtown, promote public transportation, and support a healthy environment, well-designed public restrooms are necessary. This building project is long overdue in order to support the downtown shopping population - both tourist and the local public. During events downtown, there has been a queue to use the existing facility.

This offer will also fund enhancements along the Mason Corridor that implement elements from the Mason Street Transportation Corridor Master Plan. This project will focus on the following:  Improving safety for all modes of travel  Improving appearance and safety at intersections  Providing bicycle circulation options (on or near the corridor)  Pedestrian circulation along and across Mason Street  Ensuring mobility and accessibility for people of all ages and abilities  Creating a beautiful, identifiable, and unique design  Identifying funding and building partnerships This offer would fund architectural and engineering design of enhancements along Mason Street. As the City embarks on the operation of the MAX service, it is imperative to the success of the Mason Corridor to design and construct improvements along the corridor. The Mason Street Transportation Corridor Master Plan identified the following design principles; they are intended to reflect the design direction and goals for the Master Plan of the Mason Street Corridor:  Corridor Character— The design character of the corridor reflects the area that it goes through, while maintaining common elements that give the Mason Street Transportation Corridor a unique appearance and identity. Packet Pg. 17 Attachment1.2: Project Descriptions (2481 : Saturday Off-Site Session) ECONOMIC HEALTH 12 | P a g e 10/7/2014 HIGHLIGHTED PROJECTS ARE CURRENTLY RECOMMENDED  Positive Impression— The corridor is a community asset, of which the citizens of Fort Collins can be proud. Note: BFO Offer 1.18 is similar. Why is this Project Needed? This project provides implementation of the Mason Street Transportation Corridor Master Plan. It supports the MAX operations by improving walking and bicycling connections to and from MAX stations within the Midtown area. This project will fund enhanced railing along the BNSF Railroad, along with intersection improvements such as bulb outs and landscaping. ECH5 PROJECT TITLE: East Mulberry Corridor Planning ESTIMATED PROJECT COST: $300K ESTIMATED ANNUAL O&M: 0 Service Area: PDT/Util/Sustainability(EH) Department/Program: Cross-Service Areas Project Location: East Mulberry, from Lemay to County Road 5 Project Description: Comprehensive planning effort in preparation for annexation and development of major gateway corridor. The Plan would include financial analysis, utility and land use planning, design standards, market analysis, etc. Note: BFO Offer 146.1 is similar, but focuses more on land use aspects rather than infrastructure. Why is this Project Needed? Mulberry is a major arterial entryway into downtown Fort Collins, and is expected to be an important economic development region to serve downtown and the northeast region. While there is already a corridor plan, it lacks the level of detail needed to pursue purchase of rights of way and design. Other Related Projects: Mulberry/I-25 interchange, Lincoln Improvements, Vine/Lemay intersection ECH6 PROJECT TITLE: Linden Street Renovations Design & Construction ESTIMATED PROJECT COST: $2M ESTIMATED ANNUAL O&M: $12K Service Area: PDT/CMO Department/Program: Engineering, CMO Project Location: Linden Street, Walnut to Jefferson Project Description: The Downtown Development Authority has funded the conceptual design for this project and the work will be completed in 2014. The conceptual design process will help define the option for final design. This offer will fund the final design of this project that will provide for the enhancement of perhaps one of downtown’s most significant and photographed blocks, the 200 block of Linden Street. This block is one of the city’s most programmed streets, hosting festivals, events and concerts throughout the year. While the streetscape is adequate, this block is primarily a place for cars. This Packet Pg. 18 Attachment1.2: Project Descriptions (2481 : Saturday Off-Site Session) ECONOMIC HEALTH 13 | P a g e 10/7/2014 HIGHLIGHTED PROJECTS ARE CURRENTLY RECOMMENDED project envisions the possibility a transformation of the block to a more pedestrian-oriented space in the heart of downtown. This project will fund the design and construction of the preferred options for the renovation of this important downtown block of Linden Street. One option may be a combination of pedestrian and auto uses enhancing the Old Town experience. Another option that will be explored is a pedestrian plaza with the idea of extending the pedestrian mall of Old Town Square through this section of Linden Street. This concept would reconstruct the entire block from building face to building face creating a space for people year-round. As the conceptual design for this project progresses, the design concepts will become clearer and should be defined by the end of 2014. Note: BFO Offer 1.19 is similar. Why is this Project Needed? This project will create a more pedestrian friendly environment extending Old Town north along Linden Street. This project will help connect Old Town to the developing River District. ECH7 PROJECT TITLE: Willow Street Improvements – College Avenue to Linden Street/ Design & Construction ESTIMATED PROJECT COST: $3.5M ESTIMATED ANNUAL O&M: $11K Service Area: Planning, Development, & Transportation Department/Program: Engineering Project Location: Willow Street Improvements from College Avenue to Linden Street Avenue Project Description: This project would fund final design and construction of improvements to Willow Street as identified in the River District Infrastructure Plan. This project is envisioned to extend vibrant, pedestrian- oriented activities to the River District. Wide sidewalks, on-street parking, urban design, landscaping and potentially a linear water feature are planned. BFO offer 1.11 is for final design. Why is this Project Needed? Willow Street lacks pedestrian and parking facilities to support current and planned adjacent land uses. These improvements are part of a larger River District Plan. Other Related Projects: Lincoln Boulevard Improvements, Jefferson Street Improvements ECH9 PROJECT TITLE: Downtown Parks Maintenance Shop ESTIMATED PROJECT COST: $3.5M ESTIMATED ANNUAL O&M: 0 Service Area: Community and Operations Services Department/Program: Operations Services Project Location: City’s Street Department property Packet Pg. 19 Attachment1.2: Project Descriptions (2481 : Saturday Off-Site Session) ECONOMIC HEALTH 14 | P a g e 10/7/2014 HIGHLIGHTED PROJECTS ARE CURRENTLY RECOMMENDED Project Description: This project will build a new Parks maintenance shop on the City’s Street Department property, replacing the temporary structure which h a s housed the downtown crew for the past 5 years. The building will house more tha 30 employees, responsible for maintaining the numerous city facilities, downtown core area, Old Town Square and future expansion of City owned streetscapes and medians in the river district. The new facility will provide similar shop amenities as other satellite shops in the city. Why is this Project Needed? This project is needed because the current Parks downtown shop location will be lost due to the master plan development of block 32. This current shop will have to move off site to a new facility built at a new location, preferably at the City’s Street facility, which will afford similar access to the core area of the City. This project meets all aspects of a triple bottom line analysis. It meets environmental objectives because staging crews near the downtown greatly reduces fuel use and increases efficiencies. Crews have opportunities to use electric vehicles, bicycles, foot travel and other low-fuel use equipment to accomplish their assigned duties. The botanical crews are required to refill water tanks multiple times during the day. If travel distances are increased, it would result in untimely maintenance, increase any traffic conflicts with the public, and greatly decrease efficiency. It meets financial objectives because a shop in close proximity to work assignments saves employees’ time in completing their work assignments by reducing travel and response time. The downtown area requires crews to work in a concise timeframe to allow basic work duties to be accomplished before the public starts utilizing the sidewalks and facilities. By literally reporting minutes from their assigned work area, it allows crews to be very efficient, effective and timely. It meets social objectives because using small electric vehicles and bicycles along city sidewalks makes for a much safer environment for citizens. During the winter months, snow removal operations can clear sidewalks earlier and remain closer to city facilities keeping them clear and safe. ECH10 PROJECT TITLE: College Avenue Median and Streetscape Enhancements and Renovations ESTIMATED PROJECT COST: $1-2M ESTIMATED ANNUAL O&M: $90K Service Area: Community Services Department: Parks Project Description: The proposed project would renovate medians between Prospect and Harmony Road. Renovation would include adding irrigation, new mulch, new plantings, and limited urban design enhancements. Why is this Project Needed: Most of the medians in College Avenue from Prospect to Harmony Road have not been renovated in 30 years. In most instances there is not even irrigation. Midtown has been identified in City Plan as a major location for renovation and redevelopment. This dense retail area is responsible for 40% of the City’s tax base and is the major retail corridor in the City. With the $300M renovation of Foothills Mall it is important for the City to continue to reinforce the importance of this corridor as a vital economic hub. Additionally, the $87M MAX project and the Midtown Urban Design Plan point toward the importance of continuing revitalization. This proposed funding is a key step in restoring the visual attractiveness. Packet Pg. 20 Attachment1.2: Project Descriptions (2481 : Saturday Off-Site Session) ECONOMIC HEALTH 15 | P a g e 10/7/2014 HIGHLIGHTED PROJECTS ARE CURRENTLY RECOMMENDED ECH11 PROJECT TITLE: Community Marketplace ESTIMATED PROJECT COST: $3.5M This number anticipates a 50/50 public/private match, spearheaded by key community stakeholder organizations including the Northern Colorado Food Cluster. ESTIMATED ANNUAL O&M: $0 Service Area: Sustainability Services Department/Program: Economic Health Project Location: As outlined in the Downtown Development Authority (DDA) feasibility study, an ideal location to set up a dynamic, mixed-use, and accessible facility would be downtown. A redevelopment opportunity in midtown, off of MAX and geographically central, would also be a possibility. Project Description: The Community Marketplace project aims to create a multipurpose public facility, which will enhance and support our local food system. The Marketplace may include space to operate a year-round farmer’s market, and other supplementary components, including an artisanal bakery, a local butcher, a community kitchen, and a minimal processing facility. The Marketplace would operate with permanent tenants open year-round for normal business hours, and additional open space for temporary stalls, flexible programming, and larger events. The intent is for the project to become a focal point for local food production in Fort Collins, and increase the availability of Northern Colorado products, serving as a primary economic driver. Why is this Project Needed? The Community Marketplace has been a past priority of the Fort Collins DDA. However, it has been deprioritized due to funding limitations. The project would also help to drive the supply of locally produced food by providing an additional venue for the sale of these products. Additional Details: A feasibility study was performed on the concept by the DDA in 2011. The results of the study indicate that Fort Collins can support a Community Marketplace as long as it includes an anchor rent-paying tenant. The study also found that Fort Collins could reasonably expect to capture $11.5 million a year in fresh food sales at a centralized Marketplace. Additional details can be provided from the Feasibility Study as requested. Packet Pg. 21 Attachment1.2: Project Descriptions (2481 : Saturday Off-Site Session) ENVIRONMENTAL HEALTH 16 | P a g e 10/7/2014 HIGHLIGHTED PROJECTS ARE CURRENTLY RECOMMENDED ENV1 PROJECT TITLE: Renewable Energy to Support Local Climate Action ESTIMATED PROJECT COST: $2M ESTIMATED ANNUAL O&M: 0 Service Area: Sustainability Services Department/Program: Multiple Project Location: Multiple Project Description: Fort Collins is updating its Climate Action Plan and Energy Policy in 2014. Electricity comprises 50% of Fort Collins community carbon emissions. Switching Fort Collins’ energy source from fossil fuel to renewable energy over the next 15-20 years is imperative to achieving greenhouse gas (GHG) reduction goals and targets, and increasing our resiliency to a changing climate. Funding will be used to install clean, renewable energy projects with a primary focus on advancing local solar energy. As the price of solar comes down, and new financing tools become available, $2M can likely be leveraged farther to support greater renewable energy installation. Why is this Project Needed? In order to meet the City Council’s greenhouse gas planning objectives of reducing community emissions 80% below 2005 levels by 2030, all analyses show that we will need to achieve a zero emissions electricity. Additionally, actions taken now to reduce carbon emissions and install more renewable energy will provide added community benefits of reducing risk of increased fossil fuel energy costs that would occur through state or national carbon pricing or growing scarcity of fossil fuel. Building distributed renewable energy systems will increase Fort Collins’ resilience against natural disasters. Local clean energy installations also support a healthy economy and reduce local air pollution. ENV2 PROJECT TITLE: Community Organics Composting and Recycling Facility ESTIMATED PROJECT COST: $2.5M ESTIMATED ANNUAL O&M: $80K Service Area: Sustainability Services Department/Program: Environmental Services Project Location: TBD Project Description: This project would develop a combined Community Recycling Center (CRC) for hard-to-recycle materials (construction & demolition debris, electronic waste, common household chemical products, etc.) that features a commercially-scaled transfer station for yard waste and food scraps, to be co- located with the CRC. The facility would be a joint public/private enterprise with the City providing base level facilities with operations by private enterprise. The current Rivendell facility will be closed and combined with the new Community Recycling Facility. Scoping/feasibility studies (2012) for the CRC led to a multi-phase phase plan. By designing and building multiple phases simultaneously at a single location, optimal development and financial efficiencies will be gained. A full-service, permanent CRC will function as a waste diversion hub for many years to come by accepting various hard-to-recycle materials, including organic materials, and thereby increase the community’s ability to achieve Zero Waste goals. This component of the Packet Pg. 22 Attachment1.2: Project Descriptions (2481 : Saturday Off-Site Session) ENVIRONMENTAL HEALTH 17 | P a g e 10/7/2014 HIGHLIGHTED PROJECTS ARE CURRENTLY RECOMMENDED project ($1.5M) is currently seeking funding through the City’s 2015/2016 budget process. Regional partnerships will be sought to offer the combined CRC/organics transfer station’s use to all Larimer County residents. Why is this Project Needed? The Community Recycling Center and commercial scale organics transfer station are an integral part of Fort Collins road to zero waste. The newly adopted Zero Waste goals identify the need for an organics composting facility if Fort Collins is to achieve zero waste. Currently, yard and food waste comprise an estimated 29% (38,000 tons/year) of material thrown into the landfill and are responsible for generating 3% of community greenhouse gas emissions. Larimer County landfill life is estimated to be only 12 years, and the cost of rebuilding a similar landfill is estimated to range from $20M -$80M. Keeping organics out the landfill would create more local jobs, reduce GHG emissions, extend landfill life, and improve the community’s access to compost for use as a soil amendment. Additional Details: This project requests a total of $2.5M for development and construction of a combined facility; this includes costs for the hard-to-recycle-materials center ($1.5 M) and $1M for the organics transfer station. The site will be operated by the private sector under contract(s) to the City. Therefore, charges will be applied for users of the organics transfer, currently estimated at $35/ton; however, the gate fee for the hard-to-recycle-materials remains to be determined by the operator. The City’s expectation is for operations and maintenance (O&M) costs to be covered in the operator(s) business model. The on-going O&M costs of $70,000 identified here provides a contingency to cover unanticipated facility maintenance costs and/or limited subsidy to the operator(s) during the first few years of operation as the usage scales up. ENV3 PROJECT TITLE: Downtown Poudre River Enhancements ESTIMATED PROJECT COST: $3.2M-13.2M ESTIMATED ANNUAL O&M: $25K-125K Service Area: Community Services Department/Program: Natural Areas and PP&D Project Location: Poudre River between Shields Street and Lincoln Avenue Project Descriptions: Option A: Coy Reach Cost: $5M/ O&M: 50K The Coy diversion project (near the Power Plant building) involves modifying or removing the Coy diversion structure, creating a whitewater park with viewing/picnic areas, improving access to the river, enhancing the river’s habitat and beauty, and adding a pedestrian bridge over the river east of College. The project also lowers the river channel to improve flood mitigation and prevent flooding of College Avenue. Option B: Martinez/Legacy Park Reach Cost: $5M/ O&M: 50K The Martinez/Legacy Park project improves Legacy Park by routing the road away from the river, Packet Pg. 23 Attachment1.2: Project Descriptions (2481 : Saturday Off-Site Session) ENVIRONMENTAL HEALTH 18 | P a g e 10/7/2014 HIGHLIGHTED PROJECTS ARE CURRENTLY RECOMMENDED modifying and vegetating the river bank, adding picnic areas, creating natural play areas, and adding a restroom, parking and landscaping. The project also connects Martinez Park to the river by removing the old tree dump and sloping the area gently to the river, relocating the Hickory Bridge to connect the two parks, modifying the Lake Canal diversion structure to allow boat and fish passage, creating gathering places near the river and enhancing the river bank and habitat. Option C: Linden/Lincoln Reach Cost: $3.2M/ O&M: 25K Improvements include bank stabilization and beautification as well as habitat enhancements. This reach of the river has been heavily impacted by human use over the years and this project will help beautify and naturalize the area. Implementation of the project requires cooperation from other parties with ownership interests in diversion structures and other property impacted by the improvements. Why is this Project Needed? The Poudre River is an elemental part of Fort Collins yet it has never been integrated into the fabric of our community. This project will connect the community to the river. The project will significantly improve the river ecosystem and help restore the river’s natural beauty. River recreation will be greatly enhanced by trail improvements, play areas, river access points, picnic areas and a whitewater park. The project will also help protect life and property by improving management of storm water. Other Related Projects: Woodward natural area and river improvements; Sterling and McMurry Ponds river improvements; Shields bridge replacement (County). Additional Details: The Coy diversion project is estimated to cost $7.5 M, with $4.5 M from BOB 2.0, $1M from the Stormwater Utility, and $1.5 M from fund raising efforts.

This offer is for one such structure. There is a growing need for additional parking in downtown Fort Collins to meet the daily needs of the community. This structure would have 400 parking stalls, an office for parking services, and 11,000 SF of retail space which will be leased along the street front. Why is this Project Needed? There is a growing need for additional parking in downtown Fort Collins to meet the daily needs of the community. With the new Master Plan for Blocks 32 and 42, there will be increased parking needs for both City staff and the public that will be visiting these facilities. Other Related Projects (if any): The City of Fort Collins Civic Center Master plan (Municipal Campus) ultimately envisions more office space and more employees in the downtown area, including moving employees out of 281 N College.

The current shooting range is more than 20 years old and in need of major repairs estimated to cost $600K. With only 12 shooting lanes, the capability for efficient training is extremely limited. The city’s population is expected to grow annually by 2% increasing the need for additional officers. The Mulberry corridor is expected to be annexed into the city sometime around 2017 necessitating additional officers. Training of new officers is further exacerbated due to sending them to Adams County for a basic police academy. This model is not efficient as the agency continues to grow. Police Services does not have any local area to train for driving, necessitating travel to a facility in Adams County. By partnering with the City of Loveland, both communities benefit. Time not used by Fort Collins or Loveland at the facility will be rented out to other northern Colorado agencies to help offset the costs of operations and maintenance. There is no such facility in northern Colorado and interest level is high with other law enforcement agencies. This facility also allows for the establishment of a basic police training academy, which will increase efficiencies and be cost effective compared to our current model. The anticipated $21 million cost will be shared equally by both cities. Additional Details: The O & M costs include all staff expenses, marketing, range support, range equipment and operating costs, and maintenance contingency. While some of this will be offset by user fees from outside agencies, the cities of Loveland and Fort Collins will pay the lion’s share of expenses. It is uncertain at this time if the split will be 50/50 since FCPS is twice the size of Loveland.

This could also be a partnership with other City entities such as Neighborhood Services and CSU. This project would provide improved City services to constituents. Why is this Project Needed? The Campus West sub-station and community policing team was originally proposed in 2005 in the BFO process. In 2012, partial funding through KFCG was received for 4 police officers to be dedicated to the area; however, the facility and the remaining sergeant, two police officers, and records specialist packaged with the sub-station were not funded. The presence of both long-term homeowners and a large CSU student population that rent homes creates challenges for the area surrounding CSU. There are also large apartment complexes in the area with a high CSU student population. The neighborhood associations in that area are very active in maintaining their quality of life. The Campus West area sees a high level of property crime, noise and party complaints and disturbances. A sub-station in the Campus West area is of value to residents on the west side of the city as Packet Pg. 27 Attachment1.2: Project Descriptions (2481 : Saturday Off-Site Session) SAFE COMMUNITY 22 | P a g e 10/7/2014 HIGHLIGHTED PROJECTS ARE CURRENTLY RECOMMENDED a point of contact for police services, and the opportunity to co-locate with other city and university departments would create a very positive community policing partnership. The future addition of thousands of students, a possible on-campus stadium and the growing population density in this area will continue to make a stronger police presence in this area important. Additional Details: Project costs are based on an estimate of $360K to obtain and modify the facility and $100K for start-up costs for the personnel. The estimated annual O&M represents an estimated $77K for lease payments for the facility and $409K in ongoing personnel costs for a sergeant, two police officers and a records specialist to fully staff the team. These personnel are in addition to the four police officers currently funded by KFCG.

Project Description: Design, right-of-way acquisition and construction of the master-planned realignment of Lemay Avenue, including grade separation of Lemay Avenue and the Burlington Northern Santa Fe Railway. The cost estimate from the 2010 Mountain Vista plan for this project is $32 million. Staff is in the process of developing concept alternatives including revised cost estimates. Why is this Project Needed? Existing Vine Drive and Lemay Avenue is congested and constrained by the Burlington Northern Santa Fe Railway. Trains block the intersection and create extended gridlock in the area. This location is a top location for congestion and safety complaints. Existing neighborhoods in this area are becoming increasingly impacted by the congestion on Lemay. Additional Details: Other funding sources such as Street Oversizing and Local Street obligations would be available, so Staff is recommending BOB 2.0 funding of $25 million not the currently estimated cost of $32 million.

These standards may be varied for context sensitivity, but the intent of connectivity for all modes will be met. Why is this Project Needed? Substantial development in the southeast area of Fort Collins has highlighted existing transportation deficiencies on Timberline Road including lack of roadway capacity, bicycle facilities, sidewalks, curb, gutter, medians and landscaping. This project addresses a key pedestrian facilities deficiency in the Southeast part of town helping safely connect neighborhoods to schools, parks, churches, and open space. T4 PROJECT TITLE: West Laporte Avenue Improvements – Impala Drive to Taft Hill Road ESTIMATED PROJECT COST: $2.5M ESTIMATED ANNUAL O&M: $8K Service Area: Planning, Development, & Transportation Department/Program: Engineering Project Location: West Laporte Avenue Improvements from Impala Drive to Taft Hill Road Project Description: This project would improve Laporte Avenue to two-lane arterial standards as identified on the Master Street Plan from Impala Drive to Taft Hill Road. Why is this Project Needed? This section of Laporte Avenue lacks key elements of the two-lane arterial standard and serves a critical connection to Poudre High School. T5 PROJECT TITLE: Lincoln Avenue Improvements Design & Construction ESTIMATED PROJECT COST: $13M ESTIMATED ANNUAL O&M: $36K Service Area: Planning, Development, & Transportation Department/Program: Engineering Project Location: Lincoln Avenue between Jefferson Street and Lemay Avenue Packet Pg. 30 Attachment1.2: Project Descriptions (2481 : Saturday Off-Site Session) TRANSPORTATION 25 | P a g e 10/7/2014 HIGHLIGHTED PROJECTS ARE CURRENTLY RECOMMENDED Project Descriptions: Option A: Design and Construction Cost: $13M This project would fund the design and construction of improvements to Lincoln Avenue from Jefferson Street to Lemay Avenue, including the Lincoln Avenue Bridge over the Poudre River. The improvements will be based on the recently adopted Lincoln Corridor Plan and include bicycle and pedestrian facilities, medians, curbs and gutter, and landscaping. This funding level represents the minimal improvement level specified by City Council at the time of the Lincoln Corridor Plan adoption. Option B: 1st Phase/First Street to Lemay Improvements Cost: $8M This option would exclude any bridge improvements and would represent the level of improvement identified in the Lincoln Corridor Plan for roadway, bike/ped, landscape, and urban design enhancements. Why is this Project Needed? Lincoln Avenue currently lacks sidewalks, curb and gutter, left turn lanes and enhancements such as landscaping and urban design. The adjacent land uses are redeveloping, especially the south side (Woodward). Additional Details: Note: BFO Offer 17.2 is for neighborhood projects in the plan area identified during the Corridor plan. T6 PROJECT TITLE: Jefferson Street Improvements-College Avenue to Lincoln Avenue/Mountain Avenue ESTIMATED PROJECT COST: $6M ESTIMATED ANNUAL O&M: $24K Service Area: Planning, Development, & Transportation Department/Program: Engineering Project Location: Jefferson Street Improvements from College Ave to Lincoln Avenue/Mountain Avenue Project Description: This project would implement modifications to Jefferson Street identified in the Jefferson Street Corridor Plan. These include a change to a three-lane cross section, improvements to the traditional intersections at Linden and Lincoln, pedestrian improvements, urban design, and a landscaped median. Why is this Project Needed? Jefferson Street is a narrow four lane street and carries significant truck traffic. The intent of this project is to create a street more consistent with a downtown urban character while maintaining the function of the road as a State Highway and truck route. The design is the result of a detailed and collaborative corridor study completed by the City, the Downtown Development Authority (DDA), and the Colorado Department of Transportation (CDOT). A key goal of the design is to remove the perceived barrier the existing street causes between Old Town and the emerging River District. Additional Details: The final design of this project is currently funded through a federal grant. The project is planned Packet Pg. 31 Attachment1.2: Project Descriptions (2481 : Saturday Off-Site Session) TRANSPORTATION 26 | P a g e 10/7/2014 HIGHLIGHTED PROJECTS ARE CURRENTLY RECOMMENDED to be in collaboration with utilities to replace and upgrade sewer, stormwater and water infrastructure. Other Related Projects: Lincoln Boulevard Improvements, Willow Street Improvements T7 PROJECT TITLE: College Midtown Transportation Plan Implementation Fund ESTIMATED PROJECT COST: $8M, could be apportioned over time ESTIMATED ANNUAL O&M: $33K Service Area: Planning, Development, & Transportation Department/Program: FC Moves Project Location: College Avenue between Mulberry and Harmony Project Description: The College Midtown Transportation Plan is in its initial stages, with an anticipated completion date in the fourth quarter of 2014. When completed, the Plan will include a prioritized list of infrastructure improvement projects for all modes of travel. This includes functionality and safety improvements at the frontage roads, walking and bicycling access throughout the corridor including to and from MAX stations, and traffic flow improvements. BFO Offer 1.17 “Midtown Plan Implementation” (2015-$750,000) is for final design of improvements. Priority projects that emerged from the Midtown in Motion study are improvements to arterial intersections and circulation updates to the commercial frontage roads. The arterial intersection improvements would replicate the design features at the Harmony and College intersection at other major intersections in Midtown, to improve traffic flow and pedestrian comfort. The frontage road improvements would eliminate the multiple conflicts at frontage road intersections and introduce slip on and off ramps for access. The estimated cost is envisioned to leverage larger grant opportunities or redevelopment activity. Why is this Project Needed? College Avenue is a major arterial corridor that serves as a transportation and commercial hub for the city. College Avenue is an aging facility, missing some critical elements like comprehensive and safe sidewalks and facilities for bicycles. There is significant public investment occurring within Midtown as properties redevelop and modernize, as such the public infrastructure and public investment to support this Midtown renaissance need to be made to keep up the momentum. As land uses along the College and Mason corridors continue to become denser and more intense, the roadway will require new improvements to address the needs and demands of expanding user groups. T9 PROJECT TITLE: Bicycle/Pedestrian Grade-Separated Crossings Fund ESTIMATED PROJECT COST: $8M Total ESTIMATED ANNUAL O&M: $ 30K Service Area: Planning, Development, & Transportation Department/Program: FC Moves/ Engineering/Park Planning and Development Project Location: Fort Collins Packet Pg. 32 Attachment1.2: Project Descriptions (2481 : Saturday Off-Site Session) TRANSPORTATION 27 | P a g e 10/7/2014 HIGHLIGHTED PROJECTS ARE CURRENTLY RECOMMENDED Project Description: This project establishes an annual fund that would construct top priority grade-separated bicycle and pedestrian crossings across arterial roadways. New grade separations in Fort Collins have a wide range of cost (between $750k and $4M) due to various factors including type of crossing (overpass, underpass), utility conflicts and relocations, flood plain issues, groundwater, railroad issues, etc. In order to maximize this funding, it is recommended to evaluate the feasibility and cost of crossings at our high- demand locations (Harmony, Mason Trail, downtown, etc). A second way to maximize this funding is to identify locations and projects where an existing project or road reconstruction can be modified in a cost effective manner to include a grade separation for bikes and pedestrians. The intent of this project will be to build the most cost-effective crossings at the highest demand locations. This project may include our highest priority location, the Power Trail at East Harmony Road. Other potential locations include Shields Street west of the CSU Main Campus, Prospect Road near Center Avenue, major arterial crossings by the Mason Trail, and other crossings identified in the Harmony Road Enhanced Travel Corridor Plan and the Midtown in Motion College Avenue Transportation Study. The proposed level of funding would allow construction of approximately one crossing every other year. Note: BFO Offer 1.15 is similar. Why is this Project Needed? Grade separated crossings allow bicyclists and pedestrians in high use areas to cross major roadways safely and efficiently. T10 PROJECT TITLE: Start-up for Bike Share ESTIMATED PROJECT COST: $505K ESTIMATED ANNUAL O&M: $150K Service Area: Planning, Development, & Transportation Department/Program: FC Moves Project Location: Fort Collins Project Description: This project is for estimated capital and start-up costs to provide automated (i.e., self-checkout) bike share service in Fort Collins. It is anticipated that the automated program would supplement and work in tandem with the existing Bike Library. The project cost covers the City’s share of capital and the first two years of operations. The requested amount represents the City’s share of expenses and considers other sources based on recommendations in the Bike Share Business Plan. Annual O & M costs may be further offset by availability of other funding sources. Note: BFO Offer 2.6 is similar. Why is this Project Needed? Bike share is an efficient and effective way to make bicycling available across the City. This program will have particular synergy with MAX and other Transfort services, allowing commuters to use the transit system and check out bicycles in order to complete their trip. Bike share can serve as a key strategy for reducing demand for on-bus bike racks. Additional Details: Staff has developed a business plan that outlines how to best proceed with this program. It is typical to combine seed funds from a local government with fees, sponsorships, and other funding sources to Packet Pg. 33 Attachment1.2: Project Descriptions (2481 : Saturday Off-Site Session) TRANSPORTATION 28 | P a g e 10/7/2014 HIGHLIGHTED PROJECTS ARE CURRENTLY RECOMMENDED complete the overall financing of a bike share system. T11 Continuation of BOB I Project PROJECT TITLE: Transfort Bus Fleet Replacement ESTIMATED PROJECT COST: Total $4.2M, $420K/year ESTIMATED ANNUAL O&M: 0 Service Area: Planning, Development, & Transportation Department/Program: Transfort Project Location: Fort Collins Project Description: The funding of this project would provide the 20% local match needed to replace 40 heavy duty buses and add 10 new specialty buses over the next 10 years. This 20% or, $4.2 million, would be leveraged to receive $16.8 million of federal and state grant funding. Over the next ten years three-quarters of Transfort’s fleet will be beyond its useful life. The replacement of buses beyond their useful life will reduce maintenance expenses and ensure reliable service to the Transfort customer. Why is this Project Needed? With local match funding in place, Transfort can apply for federal funding to procure the needed vehicles. Oftentimes, federal grants require that local funds are already in place prior to the funding award and by ensuring that Transfort has access to local match funding, staff is free to seek out any and all grant opportunities. In turn, by not allowing Transfort’s fleet of vehicles to surpass its useful service life, the City of Fort Collins will reduce preventive maintenance costs by approximately $30,000 per vehicle per year or $1.5M over the span of the project. Additional Details: This project is requesting $4.2M over the next ten years to leverage local match funding for $16.8M in federal grant funding to purchase 50 replacement heavy duty vehicles. The project has the added benefit of saving in excess of $1.5M in preventive maintenance costs that would be incurred otherwise. T12 Continuation of BOB I Project PROJECT TITLE: Arterial Intersection Improvements Fund ESTIMATED PROJECT COST: Total $6M ESTIMATED ANNUAL O&M: $2K Service Area: Planning, Development, & Transportation Department/Program: Engineering Project Location: Fort Collins Project Description: This project would create a funding source to address the City’s highest priority safety and congestion problems at arterial intersections. Note: BFO Offer 1.7 is the last year appropriation of the BOB I funds. Typically, these projects have included landscaping and urban design improvements to intersections. The projects will be prioritized on a rigorous analysis of benefits (increased safety and reduced congestion for all modes of travel) and costs. Why is this Project Needed? A comprehensive Arterial Intersection Prioritization Study was completed in 2011 and identifies key improvement locations. Some of these projects were completed with BOB funding; this project would Packet Pg. 34 Attachment1.2: Project Descriptions (2481 : Saturday Off-Site Session) TRANSPORTATION 29 | P a g e 10/7/2014 HIGHLIGHTED PROJECTS ARE CURRENTLY RECOMMENDED continue funding for the improvements. Additional Details: These projects have historically been very competitive in the Federal Grant programs. Leveraging of similar funds in the previous BOB tax measure more than doubled the available dollars. T13 PROJECT TITLE: Bridge Maintenance and Replacement ESTIMATED PROJECT COST: Total $10M ESTIMATED ANNUAL O&M: $0 Service Area: Planning, Development, & Transportation Department/Program: Engineering Project Location: Citywide Project Descriptions: This project repairs and replaces deficient, sub-standard, and obsolete bridges within the Citywide network of 280+ bridges. Potential projects are prioritized using a triple bottom line approach. They include both small and large structures, and typically include bicycle, pedestrian and urban design improvements. Based on our asset management analysis, a funding level that is equivalent to two average bridge replacements per year ($2M) would be ideal. At a funding level of $2M/year, it would take over 140 years to replace the entire network, which is longer than we can expect a bridge to perform, so eventually this annual funding level may have to be increased. This project is scaled to $1M/year which means the bridge program will continue to seek the remainder of the necessary funding through the BFO process. Any funding in BOB 2.0 would reduce the burden on the funds available in the budget process. Having bridge funding for a 10-year period through BOB 2.0 allows the City to program bridge replacements for years beyond the current budget to take advantage of grant availability or leveraging with other long-range programs. Why is this Project Needed? The City’s network of bridges is aging and deteriorating. A dedicated source of funding is necessary to maintain the network to a safe and responsible standard. Other Related Projects: BFO Offer 1.21 is similar. T14 PROJECT TITLE: Southwest Annexation Road Improvements Fund ESTIMATED PROJECT COST: $5M ESTIMATED ANNUAL O&M: Service Area: Planning, Development and Transportation Department/Program: Streets Project Location: Southwest Annexation Area Project Description: This proposal establishes a fund to partner with southwest annexation area HOA’s and residents to help make needed improvements to roads not built to City standards and in need of repair or replacement. Packet Pg. 35 Attachment1.2: Project Descriptions (2481 : Saturday Off-Site Session) TRANSPORTATION 30 | P a g e 10/7/2014 HIGHLIGHTED PROJECTS ARE CURRENTLY RECOMMENDED City Ordinance 182 (1998) states that, “except for minor maintenance needed to keep the streets in a safe condition, the City will not maintain substandard annexed streets until such time as the streets have been upgraded to comply with City standards”. Note: BFO Offer 25.19 is similar. Why is this Project Needed? Many substandard roads in the Southwest Annexation area are aging and in disrepair. HOA’s and residents struggle to collect funds adequate to make needed repairs and bring roads up to City standard. This fund could help establish public-private partnerships to accelerate much needed repairs to infrastructure in this area. Packet Pg. 36 Attachment1.2: Project Descriptions (2481 : Saturday Off-Site Session) COMMUNITY AND NEIGHBORHOOD LIVABILTY 31 | P a g e 10/7/2014 HIGHLIGHTED PROJECTS ARE CURRENTLY RECOMMENDED CNL1 PROJECT TITLE: Housing for the Homeless ESTIMATED PROJECT COST: $5M ESTIMATED ANNUAL O&M: Estimated Annual O&M: Operations and management will be incorporated in the development budget of housing developed with these funds. Service Area: Sustainability Services Department/Program: Social Sustainability Project Location: TBD Project Description: This project would provide funding for the capital costs of development or rehabilitation of one or more housing projects designated specifically for homeless individuals and families. These funds could be distributed through grants, contracts, or matching funds to assist in meeting the housing needs for the very lowest income residents of our community. An example of how these funds might be used is a project currently being discussed by the Fort Collins Housing Authority which would result in the construction of 125 units of permanent supportive housing for current homeless individuals. The total cost of this project is $27,250,000, and the City’s funds could be used to match other funding to complete this project if the other funds become available. Supportive housing is an innovative and proven solution to serve people who would not be able to stay housed without a wide range of supportive services. Affordable housing is combined with services to help people facing complex challenges to live with stability, autonomy and dignity. Supportive housing improves housing stability, employment, mental and physical health and reduces active substance use. People in supportive housing live more stable and productive lives. Housing stability and supportive services for these individuals has been proven to reduce other community costs in such areas as reduced emergency room use and reduced response needed by fire and police. These funds would support the capital construction of such possible programs, while local nonprofits would incur all Operations and Maintenance expenses. Why is this Project Needed? Principle LIV 7 in City Plan states that the City envisions that “a variety of housing types and densities for all income levels shall be available throughout the Growth Management Area.” Inclusion of this project in the Building on Basics 2 package will assist in bringing this goal to fruition. Studies estimate there are over 3,000 homeless people in Larimer County. At least 250 of these individuals are chronically homeless, and nearly 1,000 are school-aged children. Our community lacks a sufficient supply of affordable housing. In June 2011 the Colorado Division of Housing released a report on rent burdened households in Colorado. At that time, there were less than 22,000 affordable rental units in Larimer County for households earning $25,000 or less per year and more than twice as many households (roughly 45,700) at that income level. Nearly 54% of renters spend more than 30% of their income for housing. Larimer County is cited as the third most rent-burdened county in the state. When housing costs rise over 30% of a household’s income, the possibility of becoming homeless significantly increases. The Murphy Center for Hope provided services to more than 1,700 (unduplicated) people in the last year and regularly provides services to more than 150 homeless or near homeless persons per Packet Pg. 37 Attachment1.2: Project Descriptions (2481 : Saturday Off-Site Session) COMMUNITY AND NEIGHBORHOOD LIVABILTY 32 | P a g e 10/7/2014 HIGHLIGHTED PROJECTS ARE CURRENTLY RECOMMENDED day. Additionally, The FCHA’s waiting list currently has over 1,900 families/individuals waiting for affordable housing. Other Related Projects: Redtail Ponds is a 60-unit apartment community that will provide 40 units of permanent supportive housing for homeless adults with one or more disability and on-site services ranging from job training to case management. An additional 20 units will provide housing for low income individuals. The Single Room Occupancy (SRO) program provides 27 rooms for homeless individuals in Fort Collins. Resident Managers live on-site and provide a variety of programming to assist residents transitioning from homelessness to a more stable living arrangement. Referrals are made from Catholic Charities Mission and post shelter counseling is provided. Additional Funding Details: The financing for the development and rehabilitation of housing for the homeless is complicated. It is critical for the developer (such as the Fort Collins Housing Authority) to be able to demonstrate community commitment to a project to secure additional funders. This fund will demonstrate that commitment and streamline the development of severely needed housing for the City’s homeless population. CNL2 Continuation of BOB I Project PROJECT TITLE: Safe Routes to Everywhere ESTIMATED PROJECT COST: $20M ESTIMATED ANNUAL O&M: $25K Service Area: Planning, Development, & Transportation Department/Program: Engineering Project Location: Fort Collins Project Descriptions: Option A: Safe Routes to Everywhere Cost: $20M This package provides funding to implement a suite of multimodal infrastructure improvements intended to support a wide array of transportation choices. Through a combined approach intended to provide safe routes to all destinations, these funds would construct pedestrian improvements for safety and Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) compliance, integrated bus stop facilities, and bicycle network connections. To date, the sidewalk and bike infrastructure programs have been funded by the 2005 Building on Basics (BOB) ballot initiative which prescribed the installation of pedestrian improvements citywide to eliminate hazards and remove obstacles, and Bicycle Master Plan implementation. A primary focus of this package is the Pedestrian Sidewalk and ADA Compliance Program including bus stops. Based on the 2013 assessment, a total program cost has been quantified into a 40-year program. With the $134 million Pedestrian Sidewalk and ADA Compliance Program needs, a sustainable and predictable revenue source is recommended to implement the overall cost of construction of a 40-year compliance program. Projected costs will change over time due to inflation, construction of sidewalks by adjacent property owners and private development, and project scheduling based on construction of sidewalks by other City departments (Streets and Engineering Capital Projects Departments). Packet Pg. 38 Attachment1.2: Project Descriptions (2481 : Saturday Off-Site Session) COMMUNITY AND NEIGHBORHOOD LIVABILTY 33 | P a g e 10/7/2014 HIGHLIGHTED PROJECTS ARE CURRENTLY RECOMMENDED The 2014 Bicycle Master Plan is in its final stages of development, with anticipated completion in the 4th quarter of 2014. This plan will identify specific bicycle infrastructure improvements that will contribute to a continuous, low-stress network. This package provides funding to be used toward stand-alone bicycle infrastructure projects as well as add-on elements to other projects that complete or enhance the City’s bicycle network. Projects will enhance safety, provide wayfinding, and improve comfort for bicyclists. Note: BFO Offer 1.6 is similar. This offer:  Provides $1.4M annually for pedestrian improvements.  Provides $100K annually for bus stop improvements.  Provides $500K annually for bicycle infrastructure improvements.  Supports the Transportation Master Plan. Approximately $300,000 per year through 2015 has been allocated for pedestrian improvement projects as part of the 2005 BOB sales tax package.  Seeks to implement the recommendations from the pedestrian needs assessment completed in 2013 which identifies missing or substandard sidewalks and ramps that do not comply with the American Disabilities Act (ADA).  Would improve 10 bus stops per year to meet ADA accessibility requirements.  Constructs missing sidewalks and ramps.  Represents the overall 52-year target cost for ADA Pedestrian compliance –a reduction in the funding amount is possible, but would extend the compliance target timeline.  Provides a dedicated funding source for bike projects. Periodically, opportunities arise to provide additional bike facilities as an “add on” to another larger project, and this resource allows these low cost additions. Option B: Enhancement: Safe Route to Everywhere Cost: $10M Additional funding in this offer would bump the ADA compliance from 52-years to 40-years. Why is this Project Needed?  The City is not in compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act. The Pedestrian Plan is unfunded.  The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) required a transition plan be in place by July 26, 1992, that provided for the removal of pedestrian barriers. Any structural modifications were to be completed by January 26, 1995. Without funding for a installing the required pedestrian facilities, the City of Fort Collins will continue to be in violation of ADA without a proactive effort toward compliance. Noncompliance puts the City at risk of losing federal grant funds.  Currently there are more than 200 bus stops within the Transfort system that do not meet Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) access requirements. This funding would allow Packet Pg. 39 Attachment1.2: Project Descriptions (2481 : Saturday Off-Site Session) COMMUNITY AND NEIGHBORHOOD LIVABILTY 34 | P a g e 10/7/2014 HIGHLIGHTED PROJECTS ARE CURRENTLY RECOMMENDED Transfort to upgrade 10 bus stops per year to be ADA accessible and improve mobility options for disabled residents of Fort Collins.  This program would be a continuation and expansion of the current Bicycle Master Plan implementation funding in the existing Building on Basics program. This annual, ongoing allocation allows the City to enhance bicycle facilities to a create safer, more convenient, and comfortable network. As a Platinum Bicycle Friendly Community, Fort Collins has a national reputation as a premier city for Bicycling. Additional Details: Staff will continually seek opportunities to leverage this limited local funding source to receive additional funding from state and federal grants to advance the improvements of the sidewalks, bus stops and bike facilities. CNL4 PROJECT TITLE: Lincoln Wayfinding and Neighborhood Trail ESTIMATED PROJECT COST: Total $500K ESTIMATED ANNUAL O&M: $30K Service Area: Planning, Development, & Transportation Department/Program: FCMoves Project Location: Buckingham Neighborhood Project Description: This project will fund the design and construction of a trail connecting Odell Brewery (near Lincoln Avenue and 3rd Street) and New Belgium Brewery (Buckingham Street and Linden Street). The purpose of the trail is to minimize disruption to the Buckingham Neighborhood by providing an alternate path for brewery patrons and buffering from the neighborhoods. This project was identified during the recent Lincoln Corridor Plan outreach process as a way to improve neighborhood livability. Why is this Project Needed? The Buckingham neighborhood currently experiences cut through traffic from both pedestrians and bicyclists moving between the breweries. By establishing an alternate, more direct off-street route staff hopes to alleviate nuisance and noise issues in the neighborhood. CNL5 PROJECT TITLE: Sustainable Child Care Center ESTIMATED PROJECT COST: $2M ESTIMATED ANNUAL O&M: $825K Service Area: Sustainability Services Department/Program: Social Sustainability Project Location: TBD, preferably in Mid-town or the Harmony Corridor where there are large concentrations of employees and residential neighborhoods nearby, and easy access to transit. Project Description: There is a growing need for a new child care center in South Fort Collins serving low income families. The need is for a facility of approximately 10,000 sq. ft. in size, with a 12,000 sq. ft. playground that would accommodate 80-100 infants and children. The center would provide Packet Pg. 40 Attachment1.2: Project Descriptions (2481 : Saturday Off-Site Session) COMMUNITY AND NEIGHBORHOOD LIVABILTY 35 | P a g e 10/7/2014 HIGHLIGHTED PROJECTS ARE CURRENTLY RECOMMENDED subsidized fees and flexible hours, including weekends, to accommodate families who work alternative hours or are in service occupations. While the City would own the facility, it would be managed by a private (non-profit) operator. This project has the opportunity to be a partnership with other local agencies and/or organizations (Teaching Tree, LaFamilia/Family Center, Teaching Tree, FCURA, PSD, etc.) including matching funding. A site location and project scope study/analysis needs to be undertaken. Why is this Project Needed? There are few affordable, quality child care facilities in south Fort Collins although the occurrence of low income and families below poverty is shifting southward. There are more than 200 families on wait lists for the childcare centers that do provide subsidized childcare. There has been a decline in the number of centers that accept CCAP subsidized payments. The City’s “Snapshot Report on Early Childhood Care and Education” identified finding a “New Child Care Centers in South Fort Collins” as a “PRIORITY”. The need for a new child care center in the Mid- Town area was discussed by City Council as part of the recent deliberations on public funding of the Foothills Mall redevelopment. CNL6 PROJECT TITLE: Implementing Nature in the City ESTIMATED PROJECT COST: $3M ESTIMATED ANNUAL O&M: $100K Service Area: Sustainability Services Department: Environmental Services Project Location: Throughout the City Project Description: Nature is all around us. Whether it’s a hawk Downtown or a butterfly in our schoolyard; the shade of a cottonwood tree or the tranquility of a flowing creek, nature is the air we breathe, the land that surrounds us and the species that inhabit the land. As Fort Collins grows, we want to ensure that every resident is within a 10-minute walk to nature from their home or office. In 2014, Nature in the City developed a vision and strategic plan to incorporate nature into the City’s increasingly urban environment. To achieve this vision, this project will restore 20-30 sites and/or acquire 4-6 parcels to create a connected open space network accessible by all.  Restoration includes adapting stormwater ponds, ditches, streams, waterways, parks and other neighborhood open spaces to include spaces that provide habitat, therapeutic benefits, and opportunities to play. The City will partner with neighborhoods, businesses and other City departments, including Natural Areas, Parks and Stormwater, to achieve these goals.  Acquisition includes parcels that provide key links to the broader corridors of the City, whether for habitat or recreation, as well as linking to existing patches of open space. It will also include sites with high wildlife value or the potential to provide high value. Sites will be prioritized based on their ability to provide all residents access to nature within a 10- minute walk and their contribution to the overall open space network. Why is this Project Needed? The City is transitioning from a large, suburban town to a small, urban city with a projected 250,000 residents. As this happens, it is critical that we protect access to nature and the key open spaces that define our community. Natural spaces within our urban setting are valuable not only as Packet Pg. 41 Attachment1.2: Project Descriptions (2481 : Saturday Off-Site Session) COMMUNITY AND NEIGHBORHOOD LIVABILTY 36 | P a g e 10/7/2014 HIGHLIGHTED PROJECTS ARE CURRENTLY RECOMMENDED habitats and for aesthetics, but they are also key to preserving quality of life, and the sense of place that makes Fort Collins unique. Sometimes those spaces will be a formal park, trail or Natural Area. Others might be an informal open space or the community garden in your neighborhood or the detention pond where you walk your dog. Even more important than the type of space are the experiences they offer residents. That means having nature nearby, opportunities for personal or family recreation, and a chance to escape from the urban environment, even just for a moment. This project supports land restoration and acquisition beyond the scope of the Open Space tax dollars priorities; additional capital dollars invested now would further this effort in a more timely manner. Other efforts that highlight the need for this effort include the following:  Preserving access to nature and the City’s sense of place is included in four chapters of the City’s Strategic Plan (Community and Neighborhood Livability, Culture and Recreation, Environmental Health, and Economic Health).  The Midtown Urban Design Plan calls for providing open spaces (both small and large) within each character district.  The Plug in to Nature study, by Larimer County, found that the biggest barrier for accessing nature is time. Providing nature closer to home allows people to spend their time experiencing nature, rather than traveling to it.  A California study of 3,000 teenagers found that they had a significantly lower Body Mass Index (BMI) when in close proximity to nature or open spaces.  A United Kingdom study of more than1,000 people concluded that moving to an area with green space will increase your mental health compared with those that move into an area lacking open space. Another study found positive psychological benefits from interacting in urban open space increased with species richness – in other words, the greater the variety of species in a particular area, the happier people are in that space. CNL7 PROJECT TITLE: Investments in Neighborhood Restoration ESTIMATED PROJECT COST: $3-5M ESTIMATED ANNUAL O&M: $175K Service Area: Sustainability Services Department: Social Sustainability/Utilities Project Description: This proposal is to support public investment in older neighborhoods in need of revitalization. It includes funding to provide the following: 1. Streetscapes that provide a coordinated approach to the design and management of streets in these neighborhoods that create visually appealing public spaces involving the visual and pedestrian environment of their streets. This could include tree-lined streets and sidewalks, other landscaping along street edges, and landscaped medians in arterial streets. These streetscapes may also encompass other various urban design elements. 2. Low or no cost loans for housing reinvestment in an effort to infuse private funds into rehabilitation of these declining neighborhoods. 3. Economic development tools such as incentives to encourage the development of neighborhood businesses and services to provide increased access and activity within these neighborhoods. Packet Pg. 42 Attachment1.2: Project Descriptions (2481 : Saturday Off-Site Session) COMMUNITY AND NEIGHBORHOOD LIVABILTY 37 | P a g e 10/7/2014 HIGHLIGHTED PROJECTS ARE CURRENTLY RECOMMENDED 4. Support City involvement in neighborhood organizing to engage residents in their community. Revitalization efforts must include the full range of neighborhood stakeholders in the development and implementation of plans focused on improving these communities. 5. Efficiency Improvement Projects- Many older homes are not well insulated or have not had efficiency reinvestments to improve comfort and reduce energy use. Funds would be used to assist these neighborhoods to upgrade to higher standards. Funds may also be used to fund public/private partnerships to install solar energy in income qualified neighborhoods. Why is this Project Needed? Fort Collins has grown dramatically. We have added more than 100,000 citizens since 1970, which has required rapid periods of housing construction. Since that time our understanding of what constitutes a great, healthy neighborhood has grown with the help of the various iterations of City Plan. We realize that great neighborhoods have the following characteristics:  Great building design and scale, including proportionality that creates interesting visual experiences.  Accessibility to various modes of transportation that allow residents to safely and reliably connect with the larger community.  Fosters social interactions and develops a sense of community and neighborliness.  Promotes security from crime and is made safe for children and other users.  Promotes a sense of pride and community engagement among its residents. Over time, and due to a variety of circumstances, some neighborhoods have declined in appearance and maintenance. Crime has increased and they lack neighborhood gathering places, lack access to local amenities and are far from needed goods and services. In some places the housing stock is dated and has not been maintained. In some of these neighborhoods there are no places for children to safely play except in streets, and pride of place does not exist among neighborhood residents. Many of these neighborhoods have had no public investment for decades. Unfortunately, they are also neighborhoods where many of our low income, senior, and disabled residents live. Some of the housing is owned by landlords who also have not invested in housing improvements in decades, leaving substandard housing which may also be unsafe. For long-term sustainability, Fort Collins must come together around comprehensive strategies to improve the quality of life in all of our neighborhoods and enhance their competitive position in the housing market, making them neighborhoods of choice and private investment. Well-planned, well-executed neighborhood development strategies send a powerful signal to both existing residents and newcomers that the city cares about its neighborhoods. In addition, lack of public investment in low income neighborhoods raises questions of equity and social justice within our City. In 2012, The Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) required Fort Collins to assess our impediments and observations to fair housing. The first observation reported to HUD is that some residents perceive an inequitable distribution of resources, including the perception that more affluent neighborhoods receive better services and attention from the City. World class communities promote equitable public and private investments and make housing and neighborhood investments that create a path to social and economic mobility for all residents. In an effort to ensure that all Fort Collins neighborhoods are welcoming and vibrant for their residents, the City has an obligation to reinvest and revitalize these neighborhoods and make sure they do not decline further.

Earlier comments were included in the September 30, 2014 Council materials. The North side of town, in particular the Northeast side, NE of College and Mulberry seems to be becoming our Commerce City. Being that all the services for the poor are located here. Obviously those services are essential and having them close to one another makes sense. However I have noticed a huge surge of homeless people sense the Denver Rescue Mission has taken over the Open Door Mission. These folks are not from here and are degrading downtown and the surrounding areas. Any improvements to the this area will be of great help in mitigating the negative image that has become of the north end. Case in point is the great job done to enhance North College. Keep up the good work! Submitted Oct-08-2014 09:20 AM Would like to see money spent on equity among neighborhoods and projects that promote sustainability, particularly ghg mitigation. Submitted Oct-08-2014 08:45 AM I would prefer that anything police related would not be on the list. I'm concerned that they would be wanting to build another Mansion. I also Do Not support adding anything w/trails because trails for the most part are not wheelchair accessible friendly. These items should have to go through the budget process. Submitted Oct-07-2014 01:40 PM for culture and recreation, sustainable water habits are a huge deal, because golf courses and parks need so much water to stay healthily but need to also stay heartily to look attractive. If we keep them more sustainable than they will stay healthily at less of a water cost. And keeping trails safe and clean is also huge because everyone hikes in colorado. And hiking is a major tourist activity in colorado as well. community compositing and recycling is also another big deal because it will help maintain soils that we are using to keep them fertile and able to produce food from colorado based small farms. Submitted Oct-07-2014 11:08 AM Thank you Submitted Oct-07-2014 09:19 AM I don't think an email or name should be required especially when it does not say that the information will remain anonymous. Submitted Oct-06-2014 08:03 PM It's important to me as a citizen and Fort Collins native to support projects that improve both efficiency, sustainability and clearly meet gaps in existing services. I believe some of the things I voted for meet these objectives and others are because I believe they will make Fort Collins a better place in the long run. Submitted Oct-06-2014 04:34 PM ATTACHMENT 6 Packet Pg. 60 Attachment1.6: Online Feedback: September 22-October 7 (2481 : Saturday Off-Site Session) The description provided with The Gardens on Spring Creek item is very misleading. Everyone wants to see the gardens completed--it is a wonderful place. But the "stage" on the Great Lawn is currently undergoing development review and is far from a simple stage for small gatherings. This item should either be truthfully revised or the whole proposal should be removed until the developmental review process is complete. Submitted Oct-06-2014 02:43 PM Thank you for allow me to input. Submitted Oct-06-2014 10:23 AM Please make Jefferson Park in downtown Ft. Collins a parking lot and move the Mission out to I-25 and Hwy 14. I want the transient population in downtown Ft. Collins cleaned up or myself and family will not continue to support downtown businesses. These people are a nusance and scary. I do not feel safe in downtown Ft. Collins even in the daytime. I do not want to spend anymore tax dollars on housing for chronically homeless population and I do not want any pot shops in the city! It just seems to attract more and more transient folks. Submitted Oct-05-2014 05:51 PM A lot of my support goes to investing in local farmers markets, local renewable energy, and resources. Submitted Oct-05-2014 03:05 PM i really enjoy the trails and would like more. Also anytime we can save water i am all for it. Makes sense Submitted Oct-03-2014 05:13 PM Almost all of the said-above are really great goals, but even among the projects I selected I would like to clarify the top 8 I would view as most important, beginning with 1) as priority. 1) Housing for the Chronically Homeless 2) Climate Action Projects 3) Safe Routes to Everywhere... 4) Community Organics Composting and Recycling Facility -- Suggestions: Employ CSU/Front Range Students to Volunteer and/or Intern at such facilities 5) Water Sustainability Improvements for Parks and Golf 6) Bridge Maintenance and Replacement -- Although I listed this later, I believe solid, reliable infrastructure is key in safety. I have known cases where bridges have collapsed. It is listed later because of how much it costs, I think there are more "affordable" goals to balance first. 7) Parking Garage and Retail Space -- Suggestions: Include more Free parking, or discounted parking for low-income families and Students. Why? Students are doing the community a favor in gaining education, why take ALL THEIR MONEY (AND parking spaces)?? 8) Sustainable Child Care Center Submitted Oct-03-2014 12:01 PM Packet Pg. 61 Attachment1.6: Online Feedback: September 22-October 7 (2481 : Saturday Off-Site Session) I would prefer to have both the pros and cons listed with these issues. For example what is the con for making Timberline rd four lanes between Stetson and Trilby? Not enough information is provided to really make an educated choice. Submitted Oct-03-2014 09:55 AM Not really any comments... but let's fix our roads to better allow traffic to flow to and from I-25. :) Submitted Oct-03-2014 09:42 AM I also support a south east recreation building with a pool. Submitted Oct-03-2014 09:33 AM Do it! Submitted Oct-01-2014 02:33 PM Great round of required projects listed. Really love that plans are moving forward for a city wide composting service. Submitted Oct-01-2014 12:57 PM GENERAL -- too many plans, too much money in downtown. The DDA should be funding downtown business projects. Renovations are a budget item, re-purposing is capital tax. Street Enhancements create more long-term O&M. Need to stop these "it feels like a great idea, so lets do it" and replace with more comprehensive solutions. I don't see myself suporting this tax at this point. WHAT I'M LOOKING FOR: More sustainablity investments -- Plan A) we give a zero-interest capital loan that is not only paid back with fees but also generates enough revenue to cover O&M and replacement. Plan B) Plan A, but loan not paid back in full or at all. Plan C) If won't cover O&M, then need partner project that combined. That partner could be an unofficial reserve of sales tax. Southeast Community Creative Center -- No, we need a clone of Northside with a pool, not something fluff for visitors. Water Sustainability -- No, Can the fake grass be recycled or will it replace plastic bags in the landfill. If anything, put fake grass at the golf course instead of fixing the water system and leave the park alone. Would rather see run as loan where saving not only pays back cost, but banks reserves to cover the replacement turf when this one wears out -- sustainability. Spring Creek -- Yes, but fees need to be enough to payback and/or cover O&M. EPIC, Heritage -- budget item, not capital tax Velo and Fitness Park -- No, unless you can show this will generate revenues from events (and associates sales and lodging taxes) to repay. Downtown Restroom -- No, the downtown square hosts events yet the restroom is moving across both College and Mountain. With the DDA removing the square restrooms, the homeless will move here. Need a better plan first and the DDA to pay. Packet Pg. 62 Attachment1.6: Online Feedback: September 22-October 7 (2481 : Saturday Off-Site Session) Quiet Zone -- No, This is about enhancing property values for business, not supporting the people. We lose two crossing, which will be more congestion and traffic. NO NO NO. New maintenance shops good thing for this tax, but I don't see the comprehensive planning. Looks more like "lets get our items on list". Replace as one comprehensive item. Community Marketplace -- NO WAY AS IT IS. Find a more general events building that can be re- purposed over time. One of its uses is a community marketplace during harvest season. During winter 25% for produce, and 75% for other stuff. Climate Action Plan - NO WAY NO WAY NO WAY -- Cannot fund a plan that is not complete. Especially given the number people on the Citizen Advisory Committee that supported the bag fee. I want to vote for good Organics Composting -- No. The e-waste and other events work just fine. They tend to busy in the morning then dead in the afternoon. I'm not seeing that we have enough demand for a permanent facility. Downtown River -- No. this is about business, not protecting the river from what I can tell. Convenience me I'm wrong and I'll change my mind. Parking Garage -- No. From what I've seen so far, businesses are asking for this so they can get more customers. DDA should fund. If people were saying they cannot get to businesses, then maybe, but I'd rather see a downtown parking district with a small fee on all purchase to cover parking. Regional Training Facility -- No, I know the chief said it would be great, but I really like having a place in town that is easy for the cops to get target practice. More practice means less mistakes. Time,money on driving to shared facility is better spend on actual training. Vine and Lemy -- this has been advertised in other contexts as a way to promote development in the area. Make the developer pay. Better yet, make a net-positive district out there and use the energy production to repay this as an investment loan. Too much business wellfare. Also creates more infrastructure to maintain which means more taxes in the future. Child Care Center -- No. But if you could make in a general non-profit center like the Fullana Learning Center or even the new Fullana Learning Center home, then I could support. Nature in the City -- No. We are creating an urban area, but the problem is people need to escape it, so we create nature in the city. Instead of creating a problem and solving it. Don't create the urban problem to being with. Submitted -01-2014 12:11 PM Infrastructure upgrades and maintenance need to be the Top priorities for municipal taxes. Submitted Oct-01-2014 11:23 AM As Front Office Manager of The Armstrong Hotel, reducing the noise from the trains and the homeless are my two biggest concerns for guests, return guests, and visitors looking to relocate to Fort Collins . Submitted Oct-01-2014 11:16 AM Housing for the Chronically Homeless. I don't mind providing funding for the helpless people in our community. I am extremely resistant to any Packet Pg. 63 Attachment1.6: Online Feedback: September 22-October 7 (2481 : Saturday Off-Site Session) project that promotes Fort Collins as a one of the "top ten places in the country" for the clueless to live. As a resident of the Historic District I rub elbows with an ever increasing number of losers that suck the resources from those who truly need it. Wake up and make decisions based on logic and reality. Our emotions have fostered programs that promote and enable the homeless lifestyle. A 30 year veteran professional in the field told me this week that 65% of the people he serves are already on some type of federal assistance. Most of this in his assessment is used to support their habits. Spend a little time talking to the folks in Jefferson Park like I have. You will have little difficulty discerning those who have chosen the lifestyle and those who need our help. Submitted Oct-01-2014 10:43 AM But first, before anything is approved...let the current BOB tax expire for at least one year before asking for reinstatement of the tax....so that you can with a straight face say that these are temporary taxes. Be that one govt that disproves the argument that all tax increases are permanent and never go away. Submitted Oct-01-2014 08:36 AM No social spending. No housing support of any kind especially for "Chronically homeless" Submitted Oct-01-2014 08:22 AM I think that these are all good ideas, but I am especially in favor of the broader community based ones. i.e, community organics composting and recycling facility, bridge maintenance and replacement, community marketplace Submitted Sep-30-2014 10:19 PM What a great list. I would be happy to check most all of these boxes but tried to focus on the projects of highest priority to me. Thank you for considering my feedback! Submitted Sep-30-2014 04:43 PM i am for any project intended to reduce power/fossil fuel usage, recycle, use water more wisely, increase availability/use of any/all locally produced goods, increase fitness & increase awareness & education in all these areas. i would almost always support smart renovations and reuse of resources, existing buildings, etc, vs building new structures. i support strategies to increase fitness, especially in regards to getting people out of their cars and onto buses/trains/bikes/their feet! i love the idea of a public market. i wish opera galleria's open space was more (wisely) used. Submitted Sep-28-2014 10:11 PM I would love to see Fort Collins moving in the direction towards a greener, more sustainable community. Although aesthetics can be pleasing to the eye, what is much more important is the effect that we as a community have on our environment and the overall well-being of our citizens. Submitted Sep-28-2014 11:17 AM I believe the arts are an integral part of the community at large. Childcare and homelessness are ongoing issues important for everyone as well. Laura Packet Pg. 64 Attachment1.6: Online Feedback: September 22-October 7 (2481 : Saturday Off-Site Session) Submitted Sep-26-2014 05:07 PM I strongly support the Community Marketplaces. I am an intentional shopper for local foods and goods, but sometimes have a hard time finding those farmer and craftsmen during the winter months. A permanent facility would make it easier for the farmers to count on the clientele and income and for consumers to be able to rely on the weekly goods. I also support any improvements and additions to biking trails and creating more natural spaces within the city. Every citizen has the option to benefit from these improvements and they also improve our area's stress levels and air quality. Submitted Sep-25-2014 01:48 PM Quite a list. Need to really prioritize those things that only government can do - bridge repair, leverage housing for homeless, keep EPIC going, leverage community marketplace - and those that enhance quality of life and serve public good - recycling center, water sustainability, climate action... Wish this form made you add up to $80K so it was more real. Thanks! Submitted Sep-24-2014 09:11 PM There's nothing on this list that I'd call bad, misguided or would object to. Answers are just an opinion of what seems like the best investment for the community. Submitted Sep-24-2014 07:56 AM I think the community marketplace is a great idea. I think that Fort Collins has lost the close relationship between farmers and the consumers. I think the connections between farmers and consumers would be restored through this project by allowing people to interact with the same people that grow their food and feed their families. I know Fort Collins has several family owned businesses that provide our community with wonderful foods such as Morning Fresh Dairy that provides Northern Colorado with fresh milk. I think it is important to maintain these connections so that what the consumer wants also gets communicated to the producer. Another important aspect of providing a location for local farmers to sell their products, is it is keeping a lot the money in our economy rather than sending it out of the Fort Collins community. Submitted Sep-23-2014 09:50 PM I'm glad to see you getting citizen input on these projects. Submitted Sep-23-2014 06:28 PM I see the southeast community has shifted focus from a true rec. center to a creative center? Wrong choice! Have you seen the number of active families in southeast Fort Collins needing a facility with recreation as a focus. This is a terrible tragedy for our part of town. Submitted Sep-23-2014 05:24 PM I would like to support the improvements to Lincoln Ave, Vine Drive, etc. but I strongly believe that too much time, money and energy is wasted on the design process that includes "beautiful medians" on all the new Packet Pg. 65 Attachment1.6: Online Feedback: September 22-October 7 (2481 : Saturday Off-Site Session) projects that the city planners propose. As an example, if you look at Lincoln Ave, it already is narrow and making it have even a single turn lane in the middle, plus bike lanes, will mean the people who live on the N. side of Lincoln Ave will lose part of what little front yards they have. NO median is needed! Let's get to basic NEEDS on these type of transportation projects. Believe me, I do like many of the projects proposed - but how about some money for ARO, which supports people with disabilities and enables them to just lead some sort of a normal life, rather than throwing money at making street projects "fancy". My two cents worth. Submitted Sep-23-2014 05:11 PM I am especially excited about the Community Marketplace downtown. Given the huge increase in farmer's market attendees, CSA's, and food business start-ups in Fort Collins, it makes sense to establish a permanent marketplace downtown. The success of similar markets across the country shows what a win-win this would be for us. Some key features of these markets are eligible for grant funding (ie. a commercial kitchen/USDA grant program). This allows the city to leverage funds on development of market for funds for enhancements. Submitted Sep-23-2014 03:41 PM The community marketplace is a fantastic idea. I would fully support and attend the marketplace. Submitted Sep-23-2014 11:49 AM Sounds like an amazing idea! Submitted Sep-23-2014 11:35 AM I am most in favor of the community marketplace/year-round farmer's market! Submitted Sep-23-2014 09:36 AM My primary interest is the Community Marketplace. This would provide healthy resources to all of Fort Collins and contribute to the overall physical and financial health of our city. Submitted Sep-23-2014 08:26 AM This intersection has been a nightmare for years. The Vine and Timberline intersection is just as bad and these are the only two routes up north. Something needs to be done. Submitted Sep-23-2014 07:58 AM I work with the Faith Family Hospitality program and am only too aware of the number of families in this city who have lost their homes and are now living out of their cars, on their friends' couches, or in the shelters. We desperately need transitional housing where families can stay so they are not on the streets. Packet Pg. 66 Attachment1.6: Online Feedback: September 22-October 7 (2481 : Saturday Off-Site Session) Nothing is as scary as not knowing where you are going to sleep! That's why I like the Homeless 2020 project and the sustainable childcare project. I sometimes fear that the Downtown Area is becoming so gentrified that soon only tourists and the elite will be able to live and shop here. High-end salons and clothing boutiques, along with specialty restaurants are not affordable to most of us. Plus, the plethora of microbreweries, along with wine, beer, and ale joints, and college bars only serve to make our town the "Choice City for Alcoholics." That's why I like the community market project. And last, but not least, traffic is only getting worse. That's why I like projects that get people out of their cars and offers them alternatives to personal vehicles, such as a good bus system and a bike-share system. Thank you so much for soliciting community input.
