EXECUTIVE SUMMARY This item is a quasi-judicial matter and if it is considered on the discussion agenda, it will be considered in accordance with the procedures described in Section 1(e) of the Council’s Rules of Meeting Procedures adopted in Resolution 2017-017. The purpose of this item is to designate the Dairy Gold Creamery Laboratory located at 212 Laporte Avenue, currently the Butterfly Café, as a Fort Collins Landmark. The Operation Services Department of the City of Fort Collins is initiating this request on behalf of the City as the owner. This structure is eligible for recognition as a Landmark due to its historic integrity and significance to Fort Collins under Designation Standard A, for its association with the twentieth-century dairy industry in Fort Collins; and Standard C, for the building’s Modernist design with Googie influences, which well represents the trend as expressed in this community in the late 1950s and early 1960s. STAFF RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends adoption of the Ordinance on First Reading. BACKGROUND / DISCUSSION The Dairy Gold Creamery Laboratory, built in the late 1950s, was used as a depot for the delivery route drivers and as a retail store and office space throughout the years. The building was also used as Dairy Gold’s “drive- thru dairy bar.” Today, the building is the Butterfly Café, a coffee and brunch spot.The Dairy Gold Creamery Laboratory is significant under Fort Collins Landmark Designation Significance Standard A, for its association with the twentieth-century dairy industry in Fort Collins; and Standard C, for the building’s Modernist architecture with Googie-influenced design elements, which well represents the trend of new building construction as expressed in this community in the late 1950s and early 1960s. While the building has lost some integrity because it is no longer in the same location on the site and because its original setting has changed from a dairy to a municipal government setting, the overall integrity of the building is intact. It has experienced no major alterations, continues to express its historic architectural style, and conveys association with the former use of the site as the last remaining physical dairy structure from that era. CITY FINANCIAL IMPACTS Recognition of this property as a Fort Collins Landmark enables its owners to qualify for local financial incentive programs available only to Landmark designated properties.
