2. First Reading of Ordinance No. 105, 2017, Imposing a Moratorium Until December 31, 2017, upon
the Acceptance of Applications for the Installation of and/or the Issuance of Right-of-Way Permits for
New Antennas, Small Cell Facilities, Towers and Wireless Service facilities by any Third Party in City
Rights-of-Way in any Zone District. (staff: Tyler Marr; 10 minute staff presentation; 15 minute
discussion)
The purpose of this item is to consider a moratorium until December 31, 2017, on the installation of
cellular facilities in public rights-of-way. This would allow the City time to draft and implement
appropriate regulations on such installations while still complying with HB 17-1193, which expanded
the right of companies to utilize the right of way for small cell installations.
3. First Reading of Ordinance No. 116, 2017, Amending Chapter 26 of the Code of the City of Fort
Collins to Make Various Changes Related to the Raw Water Requirements, to Hereinafter Be Known
as the “Water Supply Requirements.” (staff: Donnie Dustin, Carol Webb, Lance Smith; 10 minute
staff presentation; 30 minute discussion)
The purpose of this item is to consider adoption of various changes to the Utilities Raw Water
Requirements (RWR). The RWR are a dedication of water rights or cash-in-lieu (CIL) of water rights
to ensure that adequate water supply and associated infrastructure are available to serve the water
needs of development. The three main changes are decreasing the amount of RWR, increasing the
CIL rate and moving to a cash-focused system. These changes will increase development costs in
the Utilities water service area, but are necessary for meeting the water needs of that development.
Following direction given at the February 14, 2017 City Council work session, staff has conducted
additional outreach and addressed City Council questions. This item was presented on July 11, 2017
to the Council Finance Committee, which recommended the item be considered for adoption by the
entire City Council.
OTHER BUSINESS
A. Discussion relating to possible licensing of tobacco retailers.
B. Discussion relating to a new tax structure effort as a Council policy item.
C. Discussion regarding increased City/County coordination related to annexations.
