CALL TO ORDER.
1. City Park Improvements. (staff: Jennifer Torrey, Kurt Friesen; 20 minute staff presentation; 45
minute discussion)
The purpose of this item is to update Council on community outreach efforts regarding City Park
improvements, that have been completed to date, including recent meetings with design workshop
participants. Based on the feedback received, City staff has prepared two master plan options with
several potential phase one construction projects. Staff is seeking feedback and direction on the
master plan and phasing options prepared.
2. Harmony Corridor Plan Update – Gateway Area. (staff: Cameron Gloss, Tom Leeson; 10 minute
staff presentation; 35 minute discussion)
The purpose of this item is to provide Council an update on the main concepts proposed in an
amendment to the Harmony Corridor Plan and corresponding Harmony Corridor Standards and
Guidelines that pertains to the “Gateway Area” at I-25 and Harmony Road. The essential policy issue
is a change in land use designation from “Basic Industrial Non-Retail Employment” to “Harmony
Gateway”, which would allow a much wider mix of uses, in addition to employment uses. This shift in
uses would be accompanied by new standards and guidelines for development in privately-owned
portions of the area that help to create a distinct image at Fort Collins’ most prominent entry. The new
standards would require development to form a compact, concentrated pedestrian-oriented district
with extensive river valley landscaping and set design direction for landscaping, buildings, signs and
public improvements throughout the area.
