SUBJECT
Resolution 2019-005 Appointing Councilmember Ross Cunniff to Serve as the City's Representative on the
Poudre Heritage Alliance Board.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The purpose of this item is to appoint Councilmember Ross Cunniff to the Poudre Heritage Alliance (PHA).
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends adoption of the Resolution.
BACKGROUND / DISCUSSION
On December 5, 2018, Councilmember Bob Overbeck provided notice that he had moved into an open seat as
an at-large PHA Boardmember and would no longer be the City’s designee. This move was prompted by
Councilmember Overbeck’s recent election to the office of Larimer County Assessor. As a result, a new
Council representative needs to be appointed.
The PHA is focused on providing interpretive and educational programming and media that builds deeper
understanding of the Poudre River’s national significance, including its role in influencing water development,
water law, and water management. Its mission is to provide current and future generations the opportunity to
understand and celebrate the Poudre River National Heritage Area by careful planning and facilitation of
educational programs and related amenities in collaboration with residents, private sector and government
entities.
The PHA Board consists of members representing interests from the City of Fort Collins, Weld County, Larimer
County, the City of Greeley, the Town of Windsor, the Town of Timnath, federal and state agencies,
agricultural entities, water entities and the public. This Resolution is intended to appoint Councilmember Ross
Cunniff as Fort Collins’ representative to serve on the PHA Board.
