SUBJECT
First Reading of Ordinance No. 163, 2017, Repealing and Reenacting Article V of Chapter 24 of the Code of
the City of Fort Collins and Amending the Fort Collins Traffic Code Regarding the Residential Parking Permit
Program.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The purpose of this item is to amend the City Code and Traffic Code to include elements of the Residential
Parking Permit Program (RP3) as discussed at the August 22, 2017 Work Session, and to change some
existing provisions that are no longer being used. Notably, we have added to the Code the RP3 management
area and amended the Code to provide the City Manager to create regulations regarding the process for fast-
tracking areas affected by spillover parking (parking in neighborhoods adjacent to newly-adopted RP3 zones).
Some additional revisions are proposed to ensure consistency between the current administrative procedures
and the Code.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends adoption of the Ordinance on First Reading.
BACKGROUND / DISCUSSION
At the August 22, 2017 Work Session, City Council discussed the purpose and strategic management of the
Residential Parking Permit Program (RP3). There was general agreement that the RP3 should maintain the
stated purpose to preserve residential character and that a management area should be created that will
define the reasonable extent of the program and facilitate a fast track for properties within the boundary.
Please see the Work Session summary attached.
The attached ordinance will codify the RP3 management area and update the City Code and Traffic Code to
reflect the current RP3 policies and procedures. The updates to the Traffic Code are a result of the
establishing ordinance (No. 102, 2013) having general language that authorizes staff to create and administer
a residential parking program. In the subsequent years, the program policies and procedures have been
established which the City Code and Traffic Code should now reflect. The changes provided will allow for
more streamlined and straightforward enforcement of the provisions of the RP3.
PUBLIC OUTREACH
A public meeting was held on November 9, 2017 to discuss proposed changes. Attendees expressed general
support for the RP3 Management Area and the provisions to fast track blocks into zones to mitigate spillover
from existing zones. Additionally, there was support for greater development of high-frequency transit and
MAX park-n-rides to provide viable alternatives to driving and parking in neighborhoods.

WORK SESSION ITEM
City Council
SUBJECT FOR DISCUSSION
Residential Parking Permit Program (RP3).
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The purpose of this agenda item is to garner direction for the RP3 program in terms of its geographic extent, the
establishment of new zones, and the balance between resident and non-resident parking.
GENERAL DIRECTION SOUGHT AND SPECIFIC QUESTIONS TO BE ANSWERED
1. Clarify the purpose of the Residential Parking Permit Program (RP3).
2. Should the program boundaries be strategically managed?
BACKGROUND / DISCUSSION
June 13, 2017 Work Session
At the June 13 Work Session, Council discussed the current status of the RP3 program. Generally, the program
does not need a radical overhaul but a few items were asked to be addressed:
1. What is CSU’s parking and transportation strategy?
The purpose of the Residential Parking Permit Program (RP3) needs to be clarified. Is the program intended to
eliminate all non-resident parking in RP3 zones or should the program allow for a balanced occupancy in
residential neighborhoods?
Options:
a. *Status quo. The program is currently designed for resident parking as evidenced by the low parking
occupancy and few commuter permits issued.
b. Increase parking occupancy. Make commuter permits more affordable, evident, and available (up to 70%
occupancy).
The program boundaries need to be strategically managed. Should the program be limited in geographic scope
and employ a strategy to avoid spillover from RP3 zones?
Options:
a. Status quo. Allow the program to be implemented anywhere and add zones per resident petition and
confirmation of 70% parking occupancy.
b. *Create an RP3 management area where the program growth would be limited and employ a strategy to
avoid spill over from RP3 zones as they are created.
c. Initiate, without petitions, expansion of the RP3 zones to the furthest extent of the RP3 management
area.
*Staff recommendation.

Colorado State University (CSU)
CSU staff provided the following overview of their parking and transportation strategy (Attachment 1):
Plan
The City and University share mobility values. CSU has planned growth with investment in making campus safe,
walkable, and multi-modal, while protecting open space and embracing sustainability.
Substantial investment in alternative transportation, including a strong CSU-Transfort partnership
providing high ridership services such as “Around the Horn” campus shuttle and other routes directly
serving the campus.
Preserving open space in the midst of a building boom on campus and planning parking around the
edges of campus. This also enhances campus safety by reducing opportunities for vehicle vs. car or
pedestrian collisions.
Constraints
Due to state statute, parking must pay for itself at CSU. This means that all parking infrastructure and operations
costs must be paid for by parking revenue.
Parking cannot be free and is of limited supply due to the university’s footprint.
Management
CSU Parking Services recently completed a process that was more than a year spent engaging students and
employees about parking and transportation options that fit their needs, as well as discussing the parking budget,
permit prices, and lower-cost options piloted last year and expanded this year that price parking permits for
demand.
The University provides a 50 percent subsidy for its lowest paid employees to offset the cost of a permit.
CSU Parking Services has developed additional creative permit options, such as Monday-Wednesday-
Friday permits and Tuesday-Thursday permits, which flex with professor and student class schedules.
In addition to adding lower cost parking areas for permit holders, CSU Parking Services is adding short-
term pay-to-park spaces in high-demand areas, providing visitors as well as students and employees with
more options for parking for the few hours they may be on campus a day.
Status
CSU parking and transportation strategy effectiveness.
About 15 percent of the University’s parking inventory is open during day-to-day business. This allows
those driving to campus to find parking near their destination (a lack of parking may spur them to park in
non-university parking areas) as well as provides for normal changes in parking demand due to time of
day and University activities. High school visit, professional meetings, and special events all have an
impact on parking on any given day.
Parking space inventory for permit holders and visitors are balanced. While turnover is not measured in
all lots, studies show that parking in some areas on campus turn over 2.5 times per day.
The highest-demand parking lots are 85-90 percent occupied.
CSU’s Parking Services has also invested in alternative transportation, bike and pedestrian infrastructure.
Students, employees, and guests pedestrian and bike counts at key points on campus and entering
campus logged 2.556 million trips from Aug 1, 2016, to May 31, 2017.

RP3 Program Purpose
The Residential Parking Permit Program (RP3) was a recommendation of the 2013 Parking Plan and added to
the City’s Municipal Code (Chapter 24, Article V). The program was formed in response to the difficulty of
residents finding on-street parking near their homes, primarily in the neighborhoods around Downtown and CSU.
In the ordinance, the stated purpose of the program is to reduce “unnecessary personal motor vehicle travel,
noise, pollution, litter, crime and other adverse environmental impacts; promote improvements in air quality;
reduce congestion and/or hazardous traffic conditions in the neighborhood; increase the use of public mass
transit; protect residents from unreasonable burdens in gaining access to their property; preserve neighborhood
living within an urban environment; maintain the convenience and attractiveness of urban residential living;
preserve the residential character of the neighborhood and the property values therein; and safeguard the
peace and tranquility of the neighborhood.”
The program standards require a permit to park except for the first two hours in most zones. Residents and
their guests can obtain permits with the first permit free and an escalating fee scale for additional permits.
Non-resident commuter permits are also available for $40 per month (only 17 are currently issued, and highest
amount issued at any given time was 31 in Spring 2017).
In RP3 zones, average parking occupancy has dropped to 36% after implementation, down from an average of
85% before the formation of the zone.
With so few commuter permits issued and such low occupancy, the program has effectively made the streets in
RP3 zones resident parking only.
Options:
a. *Status quo. The program is currently designed for resident parking as evidenced by the low parking
occupancy and few commuter permits issued.
b. Increase parking occupancy. Make commuter permits more affordable, evident, and available (up to 70%
occupancy). The Parking Advisory Board recommends this option (Attachment 2).
Manage Program Boundaries
City Council asked staff to review the program and influences on the program and evaluate how to strategically
manage its boundaries and growth. Staff identified two major factors in spillover parking: (1) The parking demand
is generated in activity centers with limited or paid parking; and (2) The time/distance convenience of parking in
neighborhoods adjacent to the destination outweighs the alternative of paying for parking.
(1) Parking demand generating spillover comes from three primary land uses: institutional (CSU), commercial
(Downtown), and multi-family residential (student housing). Staff mapped these land uses and “activity
centers” - as identified in City Plan - to verify where current and future parking spillover will likely occur.
(2) Motorists parking in neighborhoods are then walking or biking to their destination to avoid paying for
parking. The walk and bike time from the perimeters of the current RP3 zones was compared against the
park-n-ride times from various MAX stations.
1 mile radius from the core of CSU = 30 minute walk and 10 minute bike ride.
MAX Park-n-rides to University Station:
o Drake Station = 5 minute MAX ride
o Downtown (Civic Center Parking Structure) = 5 minute MAX ride
o Swallow Station = 7:15 minute MAX ride
o South Transit Center = 15 minute MAX ride
Using this information, a boundary was drawn that represents the reasonably expected extent of spillover parking
impact. Outside this boundary is far less convenient for a motorist to park and walk/bike than it is to park at one of
the City’s park-n-ride facilities.
COPY
August 22, 2017 Page 4
Staff recommends using the boundary, called the RP3 management area, as a tool for anticipating and managing
the impacts of spillover parking. The boundary is useful in a two ways:
(1) It will create predictability for neighborhoods and commuters to be able to expect where parking
restrictions will occur.
(2) Measures can be put in place to prevent spillover from newly created RP3 zones that result in disparate
parking occupancies between adjacent blocks. As witnessed from a resident’s images of an empty street
(RP3 zone) and a fully parked street one block over (not an RP3 zone). By allowing blocks adjacent to
those petitioning to “fast track” into the zone, they will have the option to join an RP3 zone before the
expected spillover parking gets to their street. Although the adjacent block may not have the minimum
required parking occupancy (70%) and their residents had not petitioned to be included in an RP3 zone,
staff will offer them the opportunity to vote into the new zone being created because they can reasonably
predict that their block will be the next spillover parking area.
Options:
a. Status quo. Allow the program to be implemented anywhere and add zones per resident petition and
confirmation of 70% parking occupancy.
b. *Create an RP3 management area where the program growth would be limited and employ a strategy to
avoid spill over from RP3 zones as they are created.
c. Initiate, without petitions, expansion of the RP3 zones to the furthest extent of the RP3 management
area.
The Big Picture
According to the Parking Plan, the City’s overall parking philosophy is to “develop and manage parking as a
critical component of public infrastructure, and as a tool to promote and sustain economic health.” During the
Parking Dialogue of the Downtown Plan, the principal question posed was, “how do we encourage people to park
in appropriate locations based on the type of trip they are making?” For instance, two-hour on-street parking is
appropriate for shopping in Downtown, while the parking structures are most appropriate for employees working
an eight-hour-day. Or, parking on residential streets is appropriate for residents and their guests, while parking on
CSU campus or at a MAX park-n-ride is most appropriate for students attending a day of classes.
The RP3 program represents one tool in a larger toolbox of mobility management strategies. Other important
tools that help alleviate spillover parking and provide parking predictability include offering alternatives such as
park-n-rides, bicycle facilities, and new parking options in Downtown.
Park-n-rides - Staff is working to provide viable and inexpensive alternatives to driving the entire distance to
one’s destination. There are currently four parking areas along the MAX that can be used as park-n-rides: South
Transit Center (171 spaces), Swallow Station (16 spaces), Drake Station (75 spaces), and Downtown Civic
Center Parking Structure (910 spaces). The park-n-rides south of downtown are free and usually exceeding
capacity. Staff is exploring more opportunities to expand and create more park-n-rides. The City received a grant
from CDOT to evaluate park-n-ride opportunities along the MAX corridor and partners such as the Downtown
Development Authority (DDA) have expressed interest in this effort. Additionally, as development is proposed
along the corridor more opportunities for public-private partnerships arise.
Downtown - In the near future, downtown will be offering new options to make it easier to find parking in
appropriate locations. The new Firehouse Alley Parking Structure will be offering over 200 public parking spaces
this fall. In 2018, staff will be launching a parking app that allows motorist to locate available parking and to pay to
extend the on-street parking time limit.
Follow-up - Staff is preparing a response to questions asked at the Leadership Planning Team (LPT) meeting. A
read-before memo will be provided with RP3 policies and procedures and an outline of peer communities’
residential parking programs.

ORDINANCE NO. 163, 2017
OF THE COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF FORT COLLINS
REPEALING AND REENACTING ARTICLE V OF CHAPTER 24 OF THE CODE OF THE
CITY OF FORT COLLINS AND AMENDING THE FORT COLLINS TRAFFIC CODE
REGARDING THE RESIDENTIAL PARKING PERMIT PROGRAM
WHEREAS, on August 20, 2013, the City Council adopted Ordinance No. 102, 2013,
establishing a residential parking permit zone program (“the Program”); and
WHEREAS, the Program was created to restrict parking on streets within specific
neighborhoods overburdened with parking, primarily to neighborhood residents, in order to
reduce hazardous traffic conditions, promote traffic safety, and to protect residents of those
neighborhoods in gaining access to their residences; and
WHEREAS, the creation of the Program was done without having piloted a program of
similar nature before its adoption; and
WHEREAS, while the core aspects of the Program have remained constant, certain
peripheral details have evolved over the last several years to accommodate the needs and desires
of the residents of neighborhoods in which the Program has been established; and
WHEREAS, the City Council has determined it is in the best interests of the City to limit
the area in which future programs may be established to a specific management area; and
WHEREAS, the management area has been identified as a group of neighborhoods most
prone to persons parking in a neighborhood who are not residents of such neighborhood; and
WHEREAS, the management area is, in general terms, within approximately a ten-
minute bicycle ride or 30-minute walk to Colorado State University, as proximity to Colorado
State University has historically been the main cause for parking problems in neighborhoods;
and
WHEREAS, certain provisions of the City Code and Traffic Code need to be clarified
and updated to ensure the intent of the Program is maintained through clear and specific
enforcement provisions; and
WHEREAS, the City Council has determined that the amendments which have been
proposed are in the best interests of the City and are necessary for the health, safety, and welfare
of the City’s citizens.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT ORDAINED BY THE COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
FORT COLLINS as follows:
Section 1. That the City Council hereby makes and adopts the determinations and
findings contained in the recitals set forth above.

approximate area of the residential parking permit management area dated December 5, 2017, is
on file in the office of the City Clerk.
Residential parking permit zone shall mean a neighborhood designated by the City Manager in
which parking is restricted to persons who have been issued a permit pursuant to this Article.
Sec. 24-172. Purpose and intent.
The creation of residential parking permit zones is intended to promote the health, safety and
welfare of residents of certain neighborhoods by reducing unnecessary personal motor vehicle
travel, noise, pollution, litter, crime and other adverse environmental impacts; promote
improvements in air quality; reduce congestion and/or hazardous traffic conditions in the
neighborhood; increase the use of public mass transit; protect residents from unreasonable
burdens in gaining access to their property; preserve neighborhood living within an urban
environment; maintain the convenience and attractiveness of urban residential living; preserve
the residential character of the neighborhood and the property values therein; and safeguard the
peace and tranquility of the neighborhood.
Sec. 24-173 Parking permit zone eligibility.
Upon the City Manager’s determination that, in a neighborhood within the residential parking
permit management area, it is in the public interest, or upon receipt of a petition by at least ten
(10) adult residents of a neighborhood within the residential parking permit management area
proposing a residential parking permit zone, the City Manager may conduct studies to determine
if a residential parking permit zone should be established in that neighborhood, and what its
boundaries should be. Regardless of whether the City Manager initiates the process or the
residents initiate the process, the City Manager must determine the residential parking permit
zone is in the public interest in order for the program to move forward. In order to determine
whether parking by nonresidents of a particular neighborhood substantially impacts the ability of
residents of the proposed parking permit zone to park their vehicles on the streets of the proposed
zone with reasonable convenience, and the extent to which a residential parking permit zone
would significantly reduce this impact, the City Manager may consider, without limitation, the
extent to which parking spaces are occupied during working or other hours, the extent to which
-4-
parked vehicles are registered to persons not apparently residing within the neighborhood, the
impact that businesses and facilities located within or without the neighborhood have upon
neighborhood parking within the neighborhood, and public feedback including the neighborhood
property owner’s vote. The City Manager may also take into consideration the need for
reasonable public access to parking in the area and the manner and extent that it should be
provided, as well as the hours and days on which parking restrictions should apply.
Sec. 24-174. Establishment/termination.
(a) If the City Manager determines that establishing a residential parking permit zone in a
particular neighborhood is in the public interest, the City Manager shall prepare a program for
the zone, specifying the boundaries, the hours and days on which parking restrictions will apply,
and the provisions, if any, for nonresident permit parking. The City Manager may hold such
public meetings as he or she deems advisable to assist in formulating such program. The City
Manager shall thereupon establish the zone by regulation as provided herein. If the City Manager
later determines that the program is no longer in the public interest, or the rate of participation in
a zone is insufficient to cover the costs of administering the program, or the City Council has not
appropriated other funds to support the program, then the City Manager may terminate the
program in that zone.
(b) The City Manager shall define the boundaries of the proposed residential parking permit
zone based on factors including, but not limited to, the petition request, the results of any
occupancy study, and feedback received during public feedback sessions.
(c) Although additional administrative regulations regarding voting may be established
pursuant to § 24-177, the following voting requirements are hereby established:
(1) Only property owners within the proposed zone are eligible to vote;
(2) Each owner, regardless of the number of properties owned, is permitted one vote;
(3) If at least one-half of the property owners do not vote, the residential parking
permit zone shall not be established;
(4) One-half of the voting property owners must vote in favor of the residential
parking permit zone in order for it to be established;
(5) Notwithstanding Subsections (3) and (4), the result of the vote is not binding upon
the City Manager; however he or she shall use the result of the vote as a factor to assist in
determining whether the proposed zone will be established.
Sec. 24-175. Traffic control devices.
Upon establishment of a zone, the City Manager shall install the necessary traffic control devices
within the zone to notify the public of the restrictions in the zone and issue residential parking
zone permits.
-5-
Sec. 24-176. Program regulations.
(a) Upon designation of a residential parking permit zone pursuant to this Article, the City
Manager may issue parking permits for vehicles owned by, or in the custody of and regularly
used by any or all of the following persons: (1) residents of the zone, (2) persons employed by a
business, non-profit, or governmental entity located within the zone, and (3) if permitted in the
zone, nonresidents. The permits shall be issued upon receipt of a completed application therefor
and payment of the fees adopted by the City Manager as provided by Chapter 7.5 of the City
Code.
(b) A permitted vehicle may be parked in the zone specified in the permit without regard to
the time limits prescribed for unpermitted vehicles in such zone, if any.
(c) Permits for businesses, non-profit, and governmental entities may be issued only if
parking capacity exceeds that needed for all residential parking. These permits shall be sold on a
first-come, first-serve basis.
(d) No person shall use or display any permit issued under this Article in violation of any
provision of this Code or any regulation promulgated by the City Manager under §24-176 below.
(e) If parking capacity is available, residents issued a permit pursuant to this Article may
obtain guest permits for use by houseguests of the permittee. The City Manager may define the
circumstances under which guest permits may be issued, taking into consideration the reasonable
parking needs of the residences and available parking capacity.
(f) Upon application to the City Manager, any person providing bona fide services in a
residential parking permit zone may obtain at no cost a reasonable number of temporary permits
for the vehicles of such person for the period of time that the person is engaged in work within a
residential parking permit zone.
(g) It shall be unlawful for any person to falsely represent himself or herself as eligible for a
permit under this Article or to furnish any false information in or in conjunction with an
application for a residential parking permit.
(h) Possession of any of the permits provided under this Article shall not guarantee or reserve
a parking space.
Sec. 24-177. Supplemental regulations.
The City Manager may, by regulation, prescribe additional standards, not inconsistent with those
set out in this Article, that must be met before the City Manager designates a residential parking
permit zone, adds or deletes territory from an established zone, or issues permits for residential
parking permit zones. In addition, the City Manager may set forth additional criteria and
regulations for managing the zones, including but not limited to, regulations for voting, grounds
for revocation of a permit, measuring occupancy, the treatment of adjacent neighborhoods,
-6-
removal of a zone, permit costs, guest, work, and commuter permits, and time-limited parking.
All such administrative regulations relating to residential permit parking zones shall remain on
file with the City Clerk.
Section 3. That Section 1214.4 of the Traffic Code is hereby added to read as
follows:
1214.4 Permitted public parking.
Unless official traffic control devices provide otherwise, only vehicles that have been properly
permitted pursuant to Section 23-140 of the City Code for use of facilities owned or operated by
the City, including but not limited to public parking areas, may park in those areas.
Section 4. That Section 1214.5 of the Traffic Code is hereby amended to read as
follows:
1214.5. Permitted parking in residential parking permit zones.
(1) Unless Where official traffic control devices indicate, provide otherwise, except as
otherwise provided below, only vehicles that have been properly permitted pursuant to
the following provisions may park in those areas: (a) Section 24-175 of the City Code for
parking within a residential parking permit zone may park in such zone.
(b) Section 23-140 of the City Code for use of facilities owned or operated by the
City, including but not limited to public parking areas.
(2) Parking a vehicle that does not display a residential parking permit in areas where official
traffic control devices indicate a parking permit is required shall constitute a violation of
this Section. In zones that permit time-restricted parking of unpermitted vehicles, no
person shall park or direct another person to park an unpermitted vehicle for a period in
excess of any time restriction established for such zone.
(3) Properly permitted vehicles that are legally parked in a residential parking permit zone
shall be exempt from Section 1204(6) of the Traffic Code. Notwithstanding any provision
of Chapter 24 of the City Code regarding time limits on parking, permitted vehicles are
subject to the provisions in this Traffic Code for abandoned vehicles, including, but not
limited to, Subsections 1202 and 1801.
(4) It shall be unlawful for anyone to modify, alter or duplicate a residential parking permit
in any way or to use such permit in any manner other than that for which it was intended.
(5) After vacating a time-restricted parking space in a residential parking permit zone, no
person shall return and park, or direct another person to return and park, that same
vehicle in that same residential parking zone within a twenty-four-hour period, regardless
of whether the maximum time restriction has elapsed.
-7-
(6) Only vehicles that have been properly permitted pursuant to Article V of Chapter 24 of
the City Code may park within a residential parking permit zone during, or within the
four (4) hours before the official start time of, a stadium event. Any person violating any
regulation set forth in Subsections 1214.5(1), (2), (4), or (5) during, or within the four (4)
hours before the official start time of, a stadium event, shall be subject to the penalties of
this Subsection (6).
(a) For purposes of this Subsection, a stadium event is defined as any event held at
the on-campus stadium at Colorado State University at which attendance is
reasonably anticipated by Colorado State University or the City to exceed twelve
thousand (12,000) persons.
(b) There is hereby established a rebuttable presumption that a stadium event is
