EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The purpose of this item is to appropriate unanticipated revenue received through a State Historical Fund grant. The State of Colorado has awarded a $35,000 grant for an architectural survey of the fifteen-block Loomis Addition in the Westside Neighborhood. STAFF RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends adoption of the Ordinance on First Reading. BACKGROUND / DISCUSSION This project builds upon a 2014 Certified Local Government grant from the State of Colorado for a historic context of the Loomis Addition. Containing many of the oldest residential buildings in Fort Collins, the Loomis Addition has seen a rapid increase in development pressure. In the last 10 years, permits for over 70 alterations and 25 demolitions have been issued in this 15-block area. The results of this architectural survey will be used to promote awareness and pride within the neighborhood and will provide the City with the tools to make informed planning decisions. The grant agreement between the State and the City was executed by the City Manager in December 2015. CITY FINANCIAL IMPACTS This State Historical Fund grant provides the City with $35,000, which is being matched with an equal amount of City money through Keeping Fort Collins Great funds allocated for this purpose. Staff involvement is confined to managing the grant project which is being accomplished with current staffing levels. The grant period is December 3, 2015, through December 3, 2017. ATTACHMENTS 1.
