City of Fort Collins Page 2 Regular Meeting 6:00 p.m. PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE CALL MEETING TO ORDER ROLL CALL AGENDA REVIEW: CITY MANAGER City Manager Review of Agenda. Consent Calendar Review This Review provides an opportunity for Council and citizens to pull items from the Consent Calendar. Anyone may request an item on this calendar be “pulled” off the Consent Calendar and considered separately. o Council-pulled Consent Calendar items will be considered before Discussion Items. o Citizen-pulled Consent Calendar items will be considered after Discussion Items. PUBLIC COMMENT Individuals may comment regarding items scheduled on the Consent Calendar and items not specifically scheduled on the agenda. Comments regarding land use projects for which a development application has been filed should be submitted in the development review process** and not to the Council. Those who wish to speak are asked to sign in at the table in the lobby (for recordkeeping purposes). All speakers will be asked by the presiding officer to identify themselves by raising their hand, and then will be asked to move to one of the two lines of speakers (or to a seat nearby, for those who are not able to stand while waiting). The presiding officer will determine and announce the length of time allowed for each speaker. Each speaker will be asked to state his or her name and general address for the record, and to keep comments brief. Any written comments or materials intended for the Council should be provided to the City Clerk. A timer will beep once and the timer light will turn yellow to indicate that 30 seconds of speaking time remain, and will beep again and turn red when a speaker’s time to speak has ended. [**For questions about the development review process or the status of any particular development, citizens should consult the Development Review Center page on the City’s website at fcgov.com/developmentreview, or contact the Development Review Center at 221-6750.] PUBLIC COMMENT FOLLOW-UP City of Fort Collins Page 3 Consent Calendar The Consent Calendar is intended to allow the City Council to spend its time and energy on the important items on a lengthy agenda. Staff recommends approval of the Consent Calendar. Anyone may request an item on this calendar to be "pulled" off the Consent Calendar and considered separately. Agenda items pulled from the Consent Calendar will be considered separately under Pulled Consent Items. Items remaining on the Consent Calendar will be approved by City Council with one vote. The Consent Calendar consists of: ● Ordinances on First Reading that are routine; ● Ordinances on Second Reading that are routine; ● Those of no perceived controversy; ● Routine administrative actions. If the presiding officer determines that the number of items pulled from the Consent Calendar by citizens is substantial and may impair the Council’s ability to complete the planned agenda, the presiding officer may declare that the following process will be used to simplify consideration of the Citizen-Pulled Consent Items: (1) All citizen-pulled items (to be listed by number) will be considered as a group under the heading “Consideration of Citizen-Pulled Consent Items.” (2) At that time, each citizen wishing to speak will be given a single chance to speak about any and all of the items that have been moved to that part of the agenda. (3) After the citizen comments, any Councilmember may specify items from the list of Citizen-Pulled Consent Items for Council to discuss and vote on individually. Excluding those specified items, Council will then adopt all “Citizen-Pulled Consent Items” as a block, by a single motion, second and vote. (4) Any Citizen-Pulled Consent Items that a Councilmember has asked to be considered individually will then be considered using the regular process for considering discussion items. 1. Items Relating to Purchase of Vehicles. A. Second Reading of Ordinance No. 141, 2019, Appropriating Unanticipated Grant Revenue from the Volkswagen Settlement Funds for the Purchase of Two Electric Vehicles to Replace End of Life Diesel Vehicles and Associated Charging Equipment. B. Second Reading of Ordinance No. 142, 2019, Appropriating Unanticipated Grant Revenue from the Volkswagen Settlement Funds for the Purchase of Three Alternative Fuel Body-on-Chassis Style Buses. The purpose of this item is to appropriate unanticipated grant revenue awarded to Transfort through the Clean Air Act Settlement program administered by Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment (CDPHE) and to reappropriate lapsing funds. Transfort was awarded funding through CDOT’s Consolidated Call for Capital Projects in 2018 for the purchase of a total of five alternatively fueled vehicles and two depot chargers. Settlement funds can be used to cover 110% of the incremental cost of purchasing an alternatively fueled vehicle compared with a new diesel vehicle. Transfort plans to replace two end-of-life diesel revenue transit buses with two new zero-emission vehicles (ZEV), purchase two depot chargers, and replace three end-of-life diesel cutaway buses with three alternative fuel vehicles. Settlement funds do not require a local match. 2. Second Reading of Ordinance No. 143, 2019, Making Appropriations and Authorizing Transfers of Appropriations for the Horsetooth Outlet Project and Related Art in Public Places. This Ordinance, unanimously adopted on First Reading on December 3, 2019, appropriates $3.2 million from Water Fund Reserves to design and construct a project to provide a temporary backup City of Fort Collins Page 4 water supply pumping system during a planned October-November 2020 closure by Northern Water of the Soldier Canyon Dam Outlet pipeline from Horsetooth Reservoir (Horsetooth Outlet Project). The pipeline provides water to the two drinking water treatment plants serving the City of Fort Collins and surrounding areas, serving about 250,000 people. The pumping system is intended as an emergency backup supply system to the primary Cache la Poudre River (Poudre River) water supply during the 60-day planned outage of the Soldier Canyon Dam Outlet pipeline. The City will be reimbursed 58% of the project costs by the project partners at the conclusion of construction. The City’s final contribution will be $1.4 million of the $3.2 million total project cost. 3. Second Reading of Ordinance No. 145, 2019, Adopting the 2020 Classified Employees Pay Plan. This Ordinance, unanimously adopted on First Reading on December 3, 2019, adopts the 2020 City Classified Employee Pay Plan. Classified jobs are grouped according to job functions, a business practice commonly used by both the public and private sectors. Pay ranges are developed by career group (management, professional, administrative, operations and trades) and level for each job function. The result of this work is a City Classified Employee Pay Plan which sets the minimum, midpoint and maximum of pay ranges for the level, within each career group and function. Actual employee pay increases are awarded through a separate administrative process in accordance with the budgeted amount approved by Council. 4. Second Reading of Ordinance No. 146, 2019, Adopting the 2020 Larimer County Regional Transportation Capital Expansion Fee Schedule. This Ordinance, unanimously adopted on First Reading on December 3, 2019, adopts the 2020 Larimer County Regional Transportation Capital Expansion Fee schedule. The City collects Larimer County Regional Capital Expansion Fees (Regional TCEF) on behalf of the County. The Regional TCEF generates revenue for capacity related improvements to regionally significant roadways that are necessitated by new development. The Regional TCEF are only used on improvements that mutually benefit both the City and County. The Regional TCEF are collected at the issuance of a building permit. 5. Second Reading of Ordinance No. 147, 2019, Authorizing the Exchange of Stormwater Easements Between the City of Fort Collins and John C. Graham and Ginger L. Graham. This Ordinance, unanimously adopted on First Reading on December 3, 2019, authorizes an exchange of stormwater easements across portions of property generally located north of the North Lemay and East Vine intersection. A stormwater easement from the City of Fort Collins will be conveyed to John C. Graham and Ginger L. Graham (consisting of 5,749 square feet located on City property) and a stormwater easement from John C. Graham and Ginger L. Graham will be conveyed to the City of Fort Collins (consisting of 34,885 square feet) and a temporary construction easement (consisting of 22,235 square feet) would be exchanged. As consideration for the easements on the Graham property the City would convey the easement across City property and the Stormwater Utility would agree to apply the balance of the difference between the value of the two easements to Stormwater Plant Investment Fees (PIF) and monthly stormwater fees for a hay barn built by the Grahams within the City limits, instead of additional cash consideration. The City’s receipt of the easements across the Graham property is consideration for the easement across City property and the credited stormwater fees. 6. First Reading of Ordinance No. 148, 2019, Amending Chapters 12, 15 and 20 of the Code of the City of Fort Collins to Update Environmental Codes. The purpose of this item is to update existing environmental codes for clarity, consistency with current practices, and in support of their enforcement.

The purpose of this item is first reading of an ordinance to allow Council to make one-year interim appointments to advisory boards and commissions notwithstanding the term requirements in City Code. Due to a 2019 Council Priority item (Reimagine Boards and Commissions) the City Clerk’s Office was instructed to pause reappointments/interviews for all boards and commissions, except for quasi-judicial boards and boards/commissions at risk of falling below quorum. To ensure boards and commissions can maintain quorum in the face of unplanned absences and effectively perform their duties, this Ordinance will allow Council to temporarily fill boards/commissions while the Reimagine Project continues in 2020. 8. First Reading of Ordinance No. 149, 2019, Designating the Frank J. Ulrich Property, 516 Laporte Avenue, Fort Collins, Colorado, as a Fort Collins Landmark Pursuant to Chapter 14 of the Code of the City of Fort Collins.

Settlement funds do not require a local match. STAFF RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends adoption of the Ordinances on First Reading. BACKGROUND / DISCUSSION Volkswagen Group of America and certain related entities (collectively Volkswagen or VW) have admitted that they violated the federal Clean Air Act from 2009 to 2016 by selling vehicles with diesel engines that emitted more air pollution than the Clean Air Act allows and by cheating on federal emission tests to hide the excess pollution. VW partially settled its civil liability for these violations of the Clean Air Act by entering two judicial consent decrees which required VW to pay more than $2.9 billion into an environmental mitigation trust fund, to be administered by an independent trustee. In Colorado, these funds are overseen by CDPHE and CDOT. Eligible transit agencies were able to apply, through a competitive process, for these Settlement Funds to replace diesel vehicles with alternative fueled vehicles. To better align with the City’s Climate Action Plan goal of becoming carbon neutral by 2050, Transfort began pursuing funding to replace rolling stock vehicles past their useful life with alternative fuel vehicles. In 2018 Transfort was awarded Congestion Mitigation and Air Quality (CMAQ) funding in the amount of $775,000 by the North Front Range Metropolitan Planning Organization (NFRMPO) for the purchase of one (1) ZEV and one (1) charging unit. These funds, along with a local match of $105,000, were appropriated in the 2019/2020 Budget ATTACHMENT 1 1.1 Packet Pg. 10 Attachment: First Reading Agenda Item Summary, December 3, 2019 (w/o attachments) (8534 : SR 141 142 Vehicle Replacement-Buses) Agenda Item 4 Item # 4 Page 2 in a lapsing business unit. Due to the timing of the awarding of additional funding, the purchase for this offer will be delayed until 2020; thereby necessitating the re-appropriation of this $880,000 to a non-lapsing business unit. Transfort applied for Settlement funds in 2018 leveraging these previously awarded CMAQ funds in order to purchase two (2) ZEVs and two (2) depot chargers. There is no local matching requirement for Settlement Funds. Transfort will purchase these ZEVs and depot chargers from an existing state purchasing schedule. This procurement method will meet all federal and state purchasing guidelines while expediting the process. In conjunction with Operation Services, Transfort has already begun the planning and engineering design process to upgrade the Transfort Maintenance and Operations Facility’s (TMF) electrical infrastructure in order to accommodate the electricity demands of depot charging. EV manufacturers have indicated to Transfort that manufacturing times are currently estimated at 12 - 18 months from time of order. With the goal of executing a contract with a vendor by December 2020, Transfort would expect to see delivery of its first revenue rolling stock EVs by second or third quarter of 2022. Transfort was also awarded FASTER (Funding Advancements for Surface Transportation and Economic Recovery Act of 2009) funding in 2018 in the amount of $197,220 by CDOT to be used to purchase three (3) cutaway style vehicles. This award is for the “guaranteed” amount of FASTER funding that Transfort receives from CDOT each year; therefore, the award amount and local match has been budgeted and is in place in the current Transfort budget in a non-lapsing business unit. Transfort applied for Settlement funds in 2018 leveraging the “guaranteed” amount of FASTER funding that Transfort receives from CDOT each year in order to upgrade the replacement vehicles from diesel fuel to alternative fuel (propane). There is no local matching requirement for Settlement Funds. These vehicles are leased to Transfort’s fixed route service contractor to provide service for Route 33 and the late-night Gold Route. Transfort will meet all federal and state purchasing guidelines in the procurement of these vehicles and expects to be able to execute a contract by 3rd quarter of 2020, with expected delivery of vehicles in mid-2021. There are multiple propane fueling stations available throughout Fort Collins; therefore, Transfort does not anticipate a risk with contractors having convenient access to fuel. Settlement Funds stipulate that the end of life diesel vehicles being replaced are scrapped, which includes cutting the frame rails in half and drilling a three-inch (3”) hole through the engine block. This ensures the air quality improvements that are pivotal to the funding program are realized, as the vehicles will no longer be drivable. Transfort has a plan in place for scrapping all five (5) identified vehicles.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The purpose of this item is to request an appropriation of $3.2 million from Water Fund Reserves to design and construct a project to provide a temporary backup water supply pumping system during a planned October- November 2020 closure by Northern Water of the Soldier Canyon Dam Outlet pipeline from Horsetooth Reservoir (Horsetooth Outlet Project). The pipeline provides water to the two drinking water treatment plants serving the City of Fort Collins and surrounding areas, serving about 250,000 people. The pumping system is intended as an emergency backup supply system to the primary Cache la Poudre River (Poudre River) water supply during the 60-day planned outage of the Soldier Canyon Dam Outlet pipeline. The City will be reimbursed 58% of the project costs by the project partners at the conclusion of construction. The City’s final contribution will be $1.4 million of the $3.2 million total project cost. STAFF RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends adoption of the Ordinance on First Reading. BACKGROUND / DISCUSSION Northern Water, which operates the 54-inch diameter Soldier Canyon Dam Outlet pipeline from Horsetooth Reservoir to the City's Fort Collins Water Treatment Facility and the Tri-Districts’ (Fort Collins-Loveland, East Larimer County, and North Weld County water districts) Soldier Canyon Water Treatment Plant, is planning to perform necessary maintenance on the pipeline in October and November 2020. This maintenance, named the Horsetooth Outlet Project, will require a full closure of the pipeline for up to 60 days, which will result in both treatment plants relying on the Poudre River as the sole water source for the City's and the Tri-Districts’ respective water service areas. Platte River Power Authority’s (PRPA) Rawhide Plant also receives process water from the Soldier Canyon Dam Outlet pipeline and could be affected by a long-term loss of water. The City has approximately 30 hours of treated water storage and can manage short term water supply interruptions of up to 8 hours before having to implement longer term water supplies such as the proposed pumping system. Historically, the Poudre River has been a reliable source of high-quality water; however, it can be susceptible to water quality impairing incidents such as forest fires, vehicle crashes, chemical spills, and other incidents that may cause the treatment plants to shut off the water intakes from the River. If one or more of these such incidents were to occur and cause a prolonged shutdown of the Poudre River intakes during the planned shutdown of the Soldier Canyon Dam Outlet pipeline, the City and the Tri-Districts could be at risk of a drinking water shortage. PRPA’s Rawhide Plant could also be affected by a longer-term water outage shortage and is a working partner in this project. The City has sufficient treated water storage to withstand short term outages (up to 8 hours); ATTACHMENT 1 2.1 Packet Pg. 19 Attachment: First Reading Agenda Item Summary, December 3, 2019 (w/o attachments) (8535 : SR 143 Horsetooth Outlet Project) Agenda Item 5 Item # 5 Page 2 however, the Tri-Districts do not have similar storage and may be susceptible to water shortages during a short loss of the Poudre River supply. To mitigate the risk of the Poudre supply being unavailable for more than 8 hours, the City, the Tri-Districts, and PRPA are proposing to construct a temporary emergency water supply project, known as the Hansen Canal Pump System. The project will allow for Horsetooth water to be released to the Hansen Canal, pumped into the Pleasant Valley Pipeline (PVP) via a temporary pump station and new piping. The pumped water will then be delivered through the PVP to the Fort Collins and Soldier Canyon treatment plants to serve the City’s and the Tri-Districts’ customers, as well as PRPA. The pipelines and appurtenances to the PVP will be permanent connections, though, at this time, the pumps associated with the pump station will be temporary and will be removed from the site at the completion of the Hansen Canal Pump System Project. Low cost, operational mitigation measures will also be implemented to help mitigate risks associated with the Poudre River supply. Examples include stockpiling additional water treatment chemicals, installing containment booms in the River, and increased spill response training. Additional risk reduction measures such as restricting truck traffic in the Poudre Canyon during the shutdown are being discussed with the Colorado Department of Transportation (CDOT). The anticipated total cost of the project of $3.2 million and is to be shared between the City, the Tri-Districts, and PRPA as outlined in separate Intergovernmental Agreements. A location map for the Hansen Canal Pump System is shown in Attachment 1. A preliminary schematic of the Hansen Canal Pump System is shown in Attachment 2. Water Conservation The Horsetooth Outlet Project is an opportunity to share information about: the importance of proactive maintenance to sustain high quality, reliable water supplies; the source of our water supply; the collective responsibility to use our water resources wisely; and the value of a community-owned water utility. The Horsetooth Outlet Project will provide 15 to 20 million gallons per day (MGD) of water to Fort Collins. Typical demands in early October are approximately 20 to 22 MGD and typically drop to 15 MGD toward the middle-to- end of October as irrigation and other seasonal uses end. Staff suggests the following water demand management approach to mitigate risk: Goal: Reduce water demand to typical winter levels (15 MGD) by October 1st and sustain this winter level throughout the Horsetooth Outlet Project. 1. Perform extensive public outreach and education in the months leading up to and throughout the project. o Tactics may include, but is not limited to, utility bill inserts, direct mailers, local articles/ads, emails, newsletters, staff presence/activities at a variety of events throughout the year, community presentations (targeted and upon request), posters, promotion of programs/services and rebates, collaboration with City, commercial, and key accounts, etc. 2. Implement short term outdoor water restrictions for all customers to end all irrigation by October 1, with limited exceptions. With proactive outreach, communication and engagement, staff believes the community will do its part to minimize some of the necessary risk of the project. Many communities across the nation only have one water supply and the city is fortunate to have two reliable, high-quality sources. It is our responsibility to protect the community by protecting and proactively managing our water resources. Water is an essential ingredient to the many activities and businesses that make Fort Collins special. Investments we make today in our water resources, infrastructure, and community education help maintain clean, reliable water resources and protect 2.1 Packet Pg. 20 Attachment: First Reading Agenda Item Summary, December 3, 2019 (w/o attachments) (8535 : SR 143 Horsetooth Outlet Project) Agenda Item 5 Item # 5 Page 3 the very thing our community was built upon – and continues to thrive upon. While the goal is to achieve temporary water reductions, this effort stands to drive lasting efficiency and conservation impacts, benefiting our utility and residents alike. Additionally, the Water Supply Shortage Response Plan (WSSRP) update project identified the need to develop an approach for water shortages outside of the typical summer irrigation season. The Horsetooth Outlet Project provides an opportunity to collect information that will inform that approach for the next WSSRP update, currently slated for after the recently kicked-off Water Supply and Demand Management Policy update. Outreach will be performed in cooperation with the Tri-Districts where feasible, and these conversations have already started. This appropriation includes $32,000, or 1%, for Art in Public Places. CITY FINANCIAL IMPACTS The total cost of the Hansen Canal Pump System project is estimated to be $3.2 million which will be shared between the City, the Tri-Districts, and PRPA. Adequate funds exist in the Water Fund reserves to cover this appropriations request. The Water Fund reserve has a current balance of $70.2 million, $28.6 million of which are unencumbered funds. It is proposed that the City will initially fund and manage the construction of the project. The Tri-Districts and PRPA will reimburse the City at appropriate milestones for their portion of the project costs, with full reimbursement occurring by project completion. The City will be reimbursed approximately 58% of the project costs by our project partners at the conclusion of construction. The City’s final contribution will be $1.4 million of the $3.2 million total project cost. BOARD / COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION At its November 21, 2019 meeting, the Water Board voted to recommend approval of the appropriation. (Attachment 3) At its November 18, 2019 meeting, the Council Finance Committee unanimously approved the proposed appropriation. (Attachment 4) PUBLIC OUTREACH Extensive public outreach will be performed in the months prior to the shutdown with the goal of reducing water demand to historical winter levels. Outreach efforts will include requests and incentives to eliminate outdoor watering by October 1, 2020, engage with key customer accounts, and educate City water customers about the potential impacts of the project. The outreach will also serve to inform and share conservation benefits, in addition to working with customers to reduce usage. Outreach will be performed in cooperation with the Tri- Districts where feasible. Additional risk reduction measures such as restricting truck traffic in the Poudre Canyon during the shutdown are being discussed with the Colorado Department of Transportation. ATTACHMENTS 1.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The purpose of this item is to recommend the 2020 City Classified Employee Pay Plan. Classified jobs are grouped according to job functions, a business practice commonly used by both the public and private sectors. Pay ranges are developed by career group (management, professional, administrative, operations & trades) and level for each job function. The result of this work is a City Classified Employee Pay Plan which sets the minimum, midpoint and maximum of pay ranges for the level, within each career group and function. Actual employee pay increases are awarded through a separate administrative process in accordance with the budgeted amount approved by Council. STAFF RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends adoption of the Ordinance on First Reading. BACKGROUND / DISCUSSION Open Pay Ranges The City of Fort Collins utilizes a common compensation methodology to assess jobs, combine them into job functions and establish pay range structures. The result of this work is to set the minimum, midpoint and maximum of pay ranges for the levels within each career group and function. Pay ranges are reviewed annually as part of a comprehensive market pricing analysis. Pay ranges are grouped and driven by job functions, that are based upon findings of a recruiting analysis conducted to determine where positions are typically sourced. Pay range midpoints are determined by looking at aggregate market data for positions or groups of positions and rolled up to a median of the market for functional groupings, with high and low outliers removed. Jobs for which there is no external benchmark are evaluated and placed in the Pay Plan using a job evaluation system that is calibrated against benchmark jobs. Individual salary placement in a pay range is based on an employee’s knowledge, skills, abilities, performance, and experience, paired with internal equity considerations and budget availability to ensure horizontal alignment across the City. Market Data Sources Employers Council - Colorado Benchmark Compensation Survey Employers Council - Information Technology Survey ATTACHMENT 1 3.1 Packet Pg. 26 Attachment: First Reading Agenda Item Summary, December 3, 2019 (8536 : SR 145 Pay Plan) Agenda Item 6 Item # 6 Page 2 Employers Council - Public Employers Compensation Survey Willis Towers Watson - General Industry Compensation Survey Recommended Open Pay Range Structure Adjustments As a result of the market analysis, staff is recommending changes to open pay ranges, varying from 0%-6% depending upon job function and career group. Additionally, some supervisor level bands are recommended to be restructured to more closely align to the market, resulting in a 14%-16% structure change. Actual employee salary increases are determined administratively within the Council-adopted employee pay increase budget. Step Plan The City has 16 jobs that are part of a Step Plan, a pay system in which pay progression is directly linked to skills acquisition rather than to general pay increases applicable to employees in Open Pay Ranges. Employees in Step Plan jobs may receive labor market adjustments as determined by the annual market analysis. Market Data Sources Employers Council - Colorado Benchmark Compensation Survey Employers Council - Public Employers Compensation Survey Employers Council - Rural Electric Association Survey Willis Towers Watson - General Industry Compensation Survey Recommended Step Plan Adjustments As a result of the market analysis, staff is recommending changes to Step Plan jobs, varying from 0% - 6%. Employees in Step Plan jobs will receive a market adjustment consistent with the analysis.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The purpose of this item is to adopt the 2020 Larimer County Regional Transportation Capital Expansion Fee schedule. STAFF RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends adoption of the Ordinance on First Reading. BACKGROUND / DISCUSSION In 2000, the City of Fort Collins (City) and Larimer County (County) entered into an intergovernmental agreement (IGA) authorizing the City to collect Larimer County Regional Capital Expansion Fees (Regional TCEF) on behalf of the County. The Regional TCEF generates revenue for capacity related improvements to regionally significant roadways that are necessitated by new development. The Regional TCEF are only used on improvements that mutually benefit both the City and County. The Regional TCEF are collected at the issuance of a building permit. Per the agreement, the County serves as the Regional TCEF administrator and is responsible to develop project recommendations for fee utilization. The County’s recommendations are typically based on the County’s Transportation Master Plan, a document which identifies regionally significant roadways. Once a project has been identified, City and County staff work together to determine Regional TCEF funding allocations. Regional TCEF are frequently leveraged with other funds to support larger scale capital projects and can fully support small scale capacity related improvements. The City and County have previously partnered to design and construct several projects along regionally significant roadways using the Regional TCEF; including improvements to Taft Hill Road, Shields Street, and the Shields Street/Vine Drive intersection. City and County staff continue to plan for future improvements, recognizing opportunities for additional improvements along regionally significant corridors. The Larimer County Land Use Code specifies that its Regional TCEF must be updated annually to reflect changes in road construction costs during the previous year. In July, the County adopted a revised fee schedule which increased the Regional TCEF by 3.1%. The County’s fee adjustment is based on a two-year moving average calculated from the Colorado Construction Cost Index data compiled by the Colorado Department of Transportation. A copy of the adoption memo has been included with this item. The revised fees are as follows: Development Type 2020 Regional 2019 Regional Increase or ATTACHMENT 1 4.1 Packet Pg. 49 Attachment: First Reading Agenda Item Summary, December 3, 2019 (w/o attachments) (8537 : SR 146 Larimer Cty Road Fee Schedule) Agenda Item 7 Item # 7 Page 2 Road Fee Road Fee Decrease Residential (per dwelling) by Finished Square Foot of Living Space 900 or less $168 $163 $5 901 to 1300 $235 $228 $7 1301 to 1800 $284 $275 $9 1801 to 2400 $332 $322 $10 2401 to 3000 $372 $361 $11 3001 to 3600 $405 $393 $12 3601 or more $433 $420 $13 Non-Residential (per 1000 Square Feet of Floor Area) Industrial $103 $100 $3 Commercial $435 $422 $13 Office & Other Services $256 $248 $8 Under the IGA, revisions to the Regional TCEF do not take effect in the City until City Council approves a new fee schedule. CITY FINANCIAL IMPACTS The fees are collected on behalf of Larimer County and the program. Revenues from the fees will pass through City accounts and will not affect City revenue limits under Article X, Section 20. The City does retain a 2% administration fee. Adoption will result in an increase to development fee payers. BOARD / COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION City staff did not present this item to any boards and commissions as the fees are being adjusted for inflation only. PUBLIC OUTREACH As these fees are managed and administered by Larimer County, City staff did not participate in scheduled public outreach. ATTACHMENTS 1.

Graham and Ginger L. Graham. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY This Ordinance, unanimously adopted on First Reading on December 3, 2019, authorizes an exchange of stormwater easements across portions of property generally located north of the North Lemay and East Vine intersection. A stormwater easement from the City of Fort Collins will be conveyed to John C. Graham and Ginger L. Graham (consisting of 5,749 square feet located on City property) and a stormwater easement from John C. Graham and Ginger L. Graham will be conveyed to the City of Fort Collins (consisting of 34,885 square feet) and a temporary construction easement (consisting of 22,235 square feet) would be exchanged. As consideration for the easements on the Graham property the City would convey the easement across City property and the Stormwater Utility would agree to apply the balance of the difference between the value of the two easements to Stormwater Plant Investment Fees (PIF) and monthly stormwater fees for a hay barn built by the Grahams within the City limits, instead of additional cash consideration. The City’s receipt of the easements across the Graham property is consideration for the easement across City property and the credited stormwater fees. STAFF RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends adoption of the Ordinance on Second Reading. ATTACHMENTS 1. First Reading Agenda Item Summary, December 3, 2019 (w/o attachments) (PDF) 2.

Graham and Ginger L. Graham. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The purpose of this item is to authorize an exchange of stormwater easements across portions of property located in the Southwest Quarter of Section 6, Township 7 North, Range 68 West of the 6th P.M: a stormwater easement from the City of Fort Collins to John C. Graham and Ginger L. Graham (consisting of 5,749 square feet located on City property) and a stormwater easement from John C. Graham and Ginger L. Graham to the City of Fort Collins (consisting of 34,885 square feet) and a temporary construction easement (consisting of 22,235 square feet) would be exchanged. As consideration for the easements on the Graham property the City would convey the easement across City property and the Stormwater Utility would agree to apply the balance of the difference between the value of the two easements to Stormwater Plant Investment Fees (PIF) and monthly stormwater fees for a hay barn built by the Grahams within the City limits, instead of additional cash consideration. The City’s receipt of the easements across the Graham property is consideration for the easement across City property and the credited stormwater fees. STAFF RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends approval of the Ordinance on First Reading. BACKGROUND / DISCUSSION The Grahams requested a stormwater easement from the City in order to facilitate their desire to bring flow from the Lindenmeir Channel to the NECCO Channel and eliminate existing overland flow on their property. The City needs a permanent easement and a temporary construction easement from the Grahams for the construction of the NECCO A4 lateral, which is designed to eliminate a failing pump station that was placed on the property as a temporary structure in the 1980s. The A4 lateral will remove the pump station and allow more efficient drainage from the north and west. The value of the easement the City would grant to the Grahams is approximately $2,150, while the value of the easements from the Grahams to the City is approximately $26,700, a difference of $24,550. The Grahams have obtained a building permit for a hay barn on their eastern pasture that triggers a stormwater Plant Investment Fee (PIF) of $4,722.11 and approximately $82.20 per month in stormwater fees at current rates. Rather than the City paying cash for the difference in value between the easements, the Grahams have asked that the City credit the difference to the stormwater PIF and fees as consideration for the easements they are granting to the City until the total difference of $24,550 has been reached. The value of the easement being provided by the Grahams to the City adequately covers the value of the easement the City is proposing granting to the Grahams, as well as the value of the stormwater PIF and monthly fees for almost 20 years. The ATTACHMENT 1 5.1 Packet Pg. 55 Attachment: First Reading Agenda Item Summary, December 3, 2019 (w/o attachments) (8538 : SR 147 Stormwater Conveyance-Grahams) Agenda Item 8 Item # 8 Page 2 Stormwater Utility’s agreement to credit the monthly stormwater fees would apply only while the property the barn is on is owned by a member of the Graham family or an entity controlled by a member of the Graham family, and is only for the hay barn permitted under Building Permit #B1903339. Future improvements on the property within the City may result in other stormwater fees that would not be affected by this arrangement. The Utilities department has been working closely with the Grahams to assure the easements and project goals align. CITY FINANCIAL IMPACTS Because the value of the easements the City is receiving from the Grahams exceeds the value of the easement the Grahams are receiving from the City, City staff is recommending that the City not charge the Grahams for their easement from the City.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The purpose of this item is first reading of an ordinance to allow Council to make one-year interim appointments to advisory boards and commissions notwithstanding the term requirements in City Code. Due to a 2019 Council Priority item (Reimagine Boards and Commissions) the City Clerk’s Office was instructed to pause reappointments/interviews for all boards and commissions, except for quasi-judicial boards and boards/commissions at risk of falling below quorum. To ensure boards and commissions can maintain quorum in the face of unplanned absences and effectively perform their duties, this Ordinance will allow Council to temporarily fill boards/commissions while the Reimagine Project continues in 2020. STAFF RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends adoption of the Ordinance on First Reading. BACKGROUND / DISCUSSION The City has boards and commissions that are charged with advising Council; some also perform outreach and engagement functions; some also make official decisions. Over 200 residents volunteer valuable time and expertise through board membership. Six of these boards are considered “quasi-judicial,” meaning they provide official findings. On July 2, 2019 City Council adopted a priority to Reimagine Boards and Commissions to explore ways they can be better structured and managed to align with Council goals. A public process is being developed to help explore ways that boards and commissions can provide meaningful experiences for their volunteer members while effectively delivering useful and timely advice to Council from a variety of perspectives. Since the adoption of this priority, there has been a pause on reappointments for all boards and commissions, except for quasi-judicial boards and those at risk of falling below quorum. Some boards have expressed concern that allowing total board membership to hover closely above quorum can lead to disruptions of work when even a single unplanned board member absence can drop them below quorum. The timeline for outreach and engagement will lead into Q2 of 2020 with options to be discussed at a Council work session in May 2020. Decision making and an implementation strategy will follow. Council acknowledges that the process will take time to deliver productive outcomes and it is important that boards and commissions continue to function normally throughout. 7 Packet Pg. 81 Agenda Item 7 Item # 7 Page 2 To ensure boards and commissions can maintain quorum in the face of unplanned absences and effectively perform their duties, this ordinance will allow Council to temporarily fill boards/commissions while the Reimagine Project continues in 2020, notwithstanding the current requirements of the City Code. Because an appointment to a board or commission for a partial term may count toward the maximum limit of consecutive terms a member may serve, this ordinance would allow the Council to exclude an interim appointment from counting toward the term limit total. BOARD / COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION Council has received numerous requests from board and commission members to consider short-term appointments in 2020 for the reasons listed above. Those who have expressed an opinion consider short-term appointments to be an effective way of enabling boards and commissions to function successfully until regular replacement appointments and/or structural changes are determined. 7 Packet Pg. 82 -1- ORDINANCE NO. 153, 2019 OF THE COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF FORT COLLINS AUTHORIZING THE CITY COUNCIL TO MAKE SHORT-TERM APPOINTMENTS TO CITY BOARDS AND COMMISSIONS IN 2020 WHEREAS, the City has boards and commissions charged with advising the City Council, whose members are appointed by the City Council through an application and interview process; and; WHEREAS, six of these boards are considered “quasi-judicial,” meaning they make official findings and determination on matters before them; and WHEREAS, Article III of Chapter 2 of the City Code establishes each board or commission of the City and, for each individual board or commission, states the length of the board members’ terms, which in most cases is four years, and how many terms they may serve (typically two consecutive terms); and WHEREAS, on July 2, 2019, the City Council adopted a Council Priority to Reimagine Boards and Commissions, to explore improvements to the structure and management of the City boards and commissions (the “Reimagine Project”); and WHEREAS, while the Reimagine Project is ongoing the City Clerk’s Office was instructed to pause reappointments and interviews for positions on all boards and commissions, except for quasi-judicial boards and boards and commissions at risk of falling below their quorum number; and WHEREAS, to ensure boards and commissions can maintain quorums and effectively perform their duties in the face of unplanned absences, the Council would like the ability to temporarily fill vacant positions on boards and commission for short periods of time while the Reimagine Project continues in 2020; and WHEREAS, the City Council would also like to be able to specify whether such an interim appointment will count towards term limits specified by the City Code; and WHEREAS, the City Council has determined that temporarily making short-term appointments to City boards and commissions will benefit the City and its residents. 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. Section 2. That, notwithstanding any provision of the City Code to the contrary, the City Council, from January 17 to December 31, 2020, may: Packet Pg. 83 -2- (a) make appointments to City boards and commissions for terms shorter than required by the applicable provisions of Article III, Chapter 2 of the City Code; and (b) specify for each such appointment whether such term will count towards any applicable term limit specified in Article III, Chapter 2 of the City Code.

Ulrich Property, 516 Laporte Avenue, Fort Collins, Colorado, as a Fort Collins Landmark Pursuant to Chapter 14 of the Code of the City of Fort Collins. 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(f) of the Council’s Rules of Meeting Procedures adopted in Resolution 2019-064. The purpose of this item is to designate the Frank J. Ulrich property located at 516 Laporte Avenue as a Fort Collins Landmark. This is a voluntary designation at the property owner’s request. The property owner is 516 Laporte, LLC, of which Dale Eggleston is a member. The Landmark Preservation Commission unanimously recommends approving this landmark designation. STAFF RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends adoption of the Ordinance on First Reading. BACKGROUND / DISCUSSION The Frank J. Ulrich Property is an unusual example of a Craftsman Bungalow. Constructed in 1924, the residence exhibits many character-defining architectural features, including exposed rafter ends, ribbon- coursed shingles in the gable ends, multi-light windows, and prominent front porch using natural materials. The detached garage is contributing to the property because it exhibits Craftsman architectural details similar to the house and for its association with the house’s first owner, Frank Ulrich. Alterations to the house and garage are minimal or are historic changes that occurred during the period of significance, and so do not damage the property’s overall historic integrity. Furthermore, the Frank J. Ulrich Property is located on the north side of the 500 block of Laporte Avenue, which has retained its historic character and residential pattern of development. 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. BOARD / COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION At a public hearing held on November 20, 2019, the Landmark Preservation Commission unanimously adopted a motion on a vote of 7-0 to recommend that City Council designate this property based on its significance under Standard 3, Architecture, and its exterior integrity based upon all seven aspects of integrity established by the National Park Service. 8 Packet Pg. 85 Agenda Item 8 Item # 8 Page 2 PUBLIC OUTREACH A public hearing on this item was held at the November 20, 2019, meeting of the Landmark Preservation Commission.

Box 580 Fort Collins, CO 80522.0580 TYPE OF DESIGNATION and BOUNDARIES Individual Landmark Property Landmark District Explanation of Boundaries: The boundaries of the property being designated as a Fort Collins Landmark correspond to the legal description of the property, above. The property (hereinafter the “Property”) consists of the 1924 house, 1923 garage, and non-historic dog house (parcel no. 9711129016). STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE and INTEGRITY Properties are eligible for designation if they possess both significance and integrity. Significance is the importance of a site, structure, object or district to the history, architecture, archeology, engineering or culture of our community, State or Nation. For designation as Fort Collins Landmarks or Fort Collins Landmark Districts properties must meet one (1) or more of the following standards set forth in Fort Collins Municipal Code Section 14-22(a): Standard 1: Events This property is associated with events that have made a recognizable contribution to the broad patterns of the history of the community, State or Nation. It is associated with either (or both) of these two (2) types of events: a) A specific event marking an important moment in Fort Collins prehistory or history; and/or b) A pattern of events or a historic trend that made a recognizable contribution to the development of the community, State or Nation. Standard 2: Persons/Groups This property is associated with the lives of persons or groups of persons recognizable in the history of the community, State or Nation whose specific contributions to that history can be identified and documented. Standard 3: Design/Construction This property embodies the identifiable characteristics of a type, period or method of construction; represents the work of a craftsman or architect whose work is distinguishable from others by its characteristic style and quality; possesses high artistic values or design concepts; or is part of a recognizable and distinguishable group of properties. The Frank J. Ulrich Property is significant under Standard 3, Design/Construction, as an excellent example of a Craftsman Bungalow. Built in 1924, this single-story dwelling exhibits Craftsman architecture’s characteristic large front porch and exposed rafter ends, the latter feature repeated on the detached garage. Many of the sash windows have multi-light upper portions, another Craftsman detail. Craftsman buildings also tend to use natural materials, as reflected in the porch’s prominent knee wall made of uncut stone. This porch was remodeled in 1944, a historic alteration to the house; its broad, flat roof and rock knee wall and piers make the home a distinct variation of the Craftsman Bungalow along Laporte Avenue.

Box 580 Fort Collins, CO 80522.0580 Standard 4: Information Potential This property has yielded, or may be likely to yield, information important in prehistory or history. Integrity is the ability of a site, structure, object or district to be able to convey its significance. The integrity of a resource is based on the degree to which it retains all or some of seven (7) aspects or qualities set forth in Fort Collins Municipal Code Section 14-22(b): location, design, setting, materials, workmanship, feeling and association. All seven qualities do not need to be present for a site, structure, object or district to be eligible as long as the overall sense of past time and place is evident. Standard 1: Location is the place where the resource was constructed or the place where the historic or prehistoric event occurred. The house and garage on the Frank J. Ulrich Property have not been moved. Standard 2: Design is the combination of elements that create the form, plan space, structure and style of a resource. The design of the Frank J. Ulrich house, constructed in late 1924, has not changed since 1968, based on a tax assessor sketch. It also still matches the dimensions listed on the 1924 building permit, 24X34 feet. Although the original porch was remodeled in 1944, it does not detract from the house’s integrity because its distinct design represents a historic alteration executed by the home’s first owner, Frank Ulrich. The house still features exposed rafter ends, and many of the sash windows still have multi-light upper portions, indicative of the Craftsman design. The 1923 garage also has Craftsman details, like its exposed rafter ends, shingled gables, and multi-light windows. It has two additions that were likely constructed in 1924 and 1927 for Frank Ulrich, according to building permits for a “back porch” and “garage repairs,” respectively. These additions are visible in the 1968 tax assessor photo and sketch. The 1968 photo also shows a small door hood over the east door of the garage that is no longer there.1 Standard 3: Setting is the physical environment of a resource. Setting refers to the character of the place; it involves how, not just where, the resource is situated and its relationship to the surrounding features and open space. This property retains its residential setting on Laporte Avenue. It is also still open onto the alley to its east rather than being obscured by a fence. There are also still mature trees to the west of the house, as pictured in the 1968 tax assessor photo. Standard 4: Materials are the physical elements that form a resource. The house and garage retain integrity of materials overall. The house’s wood siding appears to be original and is consistent across the building. Most of the windows on the house appear to be historic, excluding the lower portion of one window on the north 1 Building Permit no. 532, July 29, 1924, Building Permits, Fort Collins History Connection: An Online Collaboration between FCMoD and PRPLD, https://fchc.contentdm.oclc.org/digital/collection/bp/id/3969.

Additionally, on the west elevation, the right window of the paired center windows appears to have had its glass partially replaced, but the window itself is intact. The front and side doors of the house are modern doors. The roof now has impact-resistant asphalt shingles; the original roofing material is just noted as “shingles” on the building permit for the house. The garage‘s dropboard siding appears to be original. The windows also appear original, but the glass of some of the windows on the east side appears to have been replaced, based on the inconsistency of the number of panes in like windows. There appears to be an opening for a door and small window on the rear elevation, but these have been boarded up. Standard 5: Workmanship is the physical evidence of the crafts of a particular culture or people during any given period in history or prehistory. It is the evidence of artisans' labor and skill in constructing or altering a building, structure or site. Several details on this house and garage evoke the workmanship of the builder. For example, the house and garage both features architectural elements of exposed rafter ends and square, ribbon coursed shingles in their gable ends. The house also has an unusual front porch with a knee wall of uncut stone and square columns. Standard 6: Feeling is a resource’s expression of the aesthetic or historic sense of a particular time. It results from the presence of physical features that, taken together, convey the resource's historic or prehistoric character. This house evokes the feeling of a Craftsman Bungalow from the early to mid-twentieth century through its retention of design, materials, and workmanship. Though the porch was remodeled in the 1940s, its prominence is suggestive of the porches of other Craftsman-style bungalows. This feeling is reinforced by the similarity between the garage and house’s architectural details. Standard 7: Association is the direct link between an important event or person and a historic or prehistoric resource. A resource retains association if it is the place where the event or activity occurred and is sufficiently intact to convey that relationship to an observer. Like feeling, association requires the presence of physical features that convey a property's historic character. The relative size of the house and garage speaks to the property’s association with their first owner: Frank J. Ulrich. Frank Ulrich was a well-known automobile painter in town. Interestingly, the unusually large garage was constructed before the house on the lot. The continued prominence of the garage on this property speaks to this association.

Box 580 Fort Collins, CO 80522.0580 HISTORICAL INFORMATION Frank J. Ulrich was born in Indiana in 1876. By his twenties, Frank lived in Wisconsin and worked as a carriage painter. 2 In Ontario, Canada, he married his wife, Maude (Minnie) Taylor.3 By 1910, Frank and Maude lived in Salt Lake City, Utah with their daughters, Nina and Thelma, where Frank continued his work as a carriage painter. Their son, Frank Taylor Ulrich, was born in 1914.4 The family moved to Fort Collins by 1919 and lived on Mason Street, where Frank Sr. transitioned professionally to automobile painting, advertising regularly in the Fort Collins Courier.5 In 1923, he was also in charge of painting the Fort Collins streetcars, which were purchased by the City in 1919.6 As Frank Ulrich transitioned from carriages to cars in his professional work, the automobile era similarly rolled into Fort Collins by the 1920s. Fort Collins began paving College Avenue in the late 1910s to make travel by car easier.7 Automobile infrastructure, like gas stations, garages, and car dealerships, popped up around town, as did professional opportunities related to the auto industry, like the work Ulrich did in car painting. As more people purchased cars, garages began to replace carriage houses in new residential areas, like in the 1920 Westlawn Subdivision, but also in the older parts of town, including the area where 516 Laporte Ave. would be located. On June 1, 1923, Ulrich purchased lot 10, block 62 of the original Fort Collins plat from Levi Cunningham, who ran a business as a concrete contractor.8 Ulrich worked with Cunningham to build a sizable garage on the same lot several months later. The frame garage was 20x20 feet with a concrete foundation, wood floors, drop siding, and a shingled roof.9 Ulrich took out another building permit to construct another garage at 516 Laporte Ave. in early 1924; this structure appears toward the rear of the lot on the 1925 Sanborn Map,10 and it was demolished at an unknown date. In July 1924, a building permit shows that Ulrich intended to build a “back porch” on a structure at 516 Laporte Ave.; because the house did not exist on the lot by that time, it is possible that this permit referred to the rear addition to the garage, but it cannot be 2 “1900 United States Federal Census,” Provo, UT: Ancestry.com Operations Inc, 2004, http://www.search.ancestry.com/cgi-bin/sse.dll?db=1900usfedcen&h=734549<br/>48&ti=0&indiv=try&gss=pt. 3 “Ontario, Canada, Marriages, 1801-1928,” Provo, UT: Ancestry.com Operations, Inc., 2010. 4 “1920 United States Federal Census,” Provo, UT: Ancestry.com Operations Inc, 2004, http://www. search.ancestry.com/cgi-bin/sse.dll?db=1920usfedcen&h=625804<br/>74&ti=0&indiv=try&gss=pt. 5 No Title.

Long for Ulrich, was issued in 1927; there are no other details listed on the document.12 Toward the end of 1924, Ulrich constructed the 24x34 foot frame bungalow on the property for $3000.13 He and his family lived at 516 Laporte Ave. into the 1940s. Ulrich continued to run his successful auto painting business, and he held the position of Deputy Sheriff for the County in the 1930s.14 In July 1944, Ulrich remodeled his house’s front porch using uncut stone, the appearance it retains today.15 Frank Ulrich’s house is a Craftsman Bungalow. The Craftsman style evolved from late nineteenth- century Britain’s Arts and Crafts Movement. The Arts and Crafts Movement emerged during the Second Industrial Revolution as a reaction to mass-production; it favored the hand-crafted works of artisans. In America, around the turn of the century, Gustav Stickley championed this movement, selling blueprints for “Craftsman” homes. Stickley was exposed to “bungalow” designs when he traveled to Bengal, India, and this building form influenced many of his and other architects’ designs; the bungalow is “the most common expression of Craftsman style architecture.”16 In contrast to ornamented Victorian houses of the same era, Craftsman designs focus on simplicity and functionality. In 1945, the Ulrichs sold their property to Grant C. Miller and his wife, Effie. M. Burgess.17 Grant worked as a sanitary inspector for the City and in Poudre Canyon many years, specializing in water sanitation, according to the 1930 census.18 Effie and Grant did not live in the house at 516 Laporte Ave., according to City Directories, but their daughter, Harriet, did. Harriet Miller married Rodney Southwick in 1926.19 She and Rodney lived in Wyoming for several years, but Harriet moved back to Fort Collins in the late 1940s, and she worked as a bookkeeper at Colorado A&M.20 Harriet transferred the property back to parents in 1949.21 She passed away in 1952.22 11 Building Permit no. 532, July 29, 1924, Building Permits, Fort Collins History Connection: An Online Collaboration between FCMoD and PRPLD, https://fchc.contentdm.oclc.org/digital/collection/bp/id/3969.

Box 580 Fort Collins, CO 80522.0580 The Millers rented the property at 516 Laporte Ave. until they sold it in 1961. Their tenants, among others, included: Rex Leslie McCaulley, a press operator at Don-Art Corporation, and his wife, Barbara; Henry J. Meyer, a grain operator for the Great Western Sugar Company, and his wife, Millie Feit; Marvin S. Hoflund, owner of Marv Hoflund Service Station, and his wife, Marjorie; and Robert R. Lechleitner, a teacher at Colorado State University, and his wife, Frances. The Millers sold to Valesca L. Saunders in 1961.23 Less than one year later, Valesca sold to Robert Tingey, who resided in the residence with his wife, Nellie, until his death in 1969.24 The Poudre Valley National Bank of Fort Collins served as executor in the sale of Tingey’s property after his death, and Dean W. and Georgia Ackerman purchased the property for $9,000.25 Less than six months later, the Ackermans sold to Richard R. and Betty L. Patrick for $13,350.26 Richard worked as a mechanic, and Betty worked as a licensed nurse.27 The Patricks lived in the house at 516 Laporte Ave. until they sold the property to Robert W. and Frances M. Richburg in 1972.28 The Richburgs rented the property until they sold it in 1974 to Glenn O. and Agnes Marjorie Eggleston, who also used it as a rental, the use that persists to today.29 Agnes Marjorie passed away in 1989, and Glenn passed away in 1990.30 In September 1999, Dale K. Eggleston acquired the property through personal representative deeds and, through a bargain and sale deed, transferred the property to himself and Mary F. Eggleston, trustees of the Dale K. Eggleston Trust.31 In 2007, the Dale K. Eggleston Trust granted the Mary F. Eggleston Trust a 50% interest in 21 Warranty Deed, Harriet L.

Eggleston Trust transferred the property to 516 Laporte, LLC, the current title holder.33 ARCHITECTURAL INFORMATION Construction Date: 1923 (garage); 1924 (house) Architect/Builder: Levi Cunningham (garage); Unknown (house) Building Materials: Frame, concrete Architectural Style: Craftsman Bungalow Description: The Frank J. Ulrich House, a single-story, front-gabled Craftsman Bungalow, faces south on Laporte Avenue. Wood novelty siding clads this residence, which rests on a concrete foundation, and asphalt shingles sheathe its roof. The house has wide overhanging eaves with exposed rafter ends. The footprint is nearly rectangular. The 24x26 foot forward portion of the house has a basement; the smaller rear portion consists of a 12x8 foot section to the west and a 10X8 foot enclosed porch to the east. The property’s garage sits just north of the house, slightly offset to the east. A wood fence encircles part of the back yard, including the rear portion of the garage. An alley runs along the east side of the property. The house’s façade (south elevation) features Craftsman details. The prominent porch, remodeled in 1944,34 uses uncut stones in its knee wall and stair. The porch surfaces are parged with concrete. Square columns sit atop the stone knee wall to support a nearly flat roof with exposed rafter ends. The gable end is visible just above the porch’s roof; it has a gable vent and decorative, ribbon-coursed square shingles. Paired nine-over-one, wood sash windows flank either side of the centered, non-historic front door. The east elevation has paired nine-over-one, wood sash windows, like those on the porch, toward its south side. Just beneath these paired windows is a casement egress window, installed in 2010. North of the paired windows is a one-over-one, wood sash window. Beneath that window is a three-light, wood basement window. On the north side of this elevation, the enclosed porch is slightly set back. The roof is discontinuous between the main portion of the house and the enclosed porch on this elevation; the roof over the enclosed porch extends from the ridge at a steeper angle than the rest of the roof, its south edge tucked beneath the eaves of this elevation’s south portion. The enclosed porch has a non-historic door with a gabled door hood 32 Special Warranty Deed, Dale K. Eggleston Trust to Mary F.

Box 580 Fort Collins, CO 80522.0580 supported by robust wood brackets. There is a six-light window just above the door, and a six- over-six, wood sash window abutting this window to the left. The north elevation of the house has a gable vent and three windows. To the east, on the enclosed porch, are paired three-over-one wood windows; the lower portion of the right window was removed and replaced from the inside with what appears to be a metal storm with two sections. There is also a nine-light wood window to the west. The west elevation has three pairs of nine-light wood windows like the one on the north elevation. The right window in the center pair appears to have had some of its glass replaced, having three lights on the left and one larger light to the right rather than nine lights in a square. There are also two basement windows on this elevation, but they are obscured by coverings made of wood and corrugated plastic. The garage has wood dropboard siding, a concrete foundation, and its roof has asphalt shingles. Its roof has wide overhanging eaves with exposed rafter ends. The garage consists of an original, front-gabled 20x20 foot portion, a rear, a hipped-roofed addition, and a shed-roofed attachment to that addition. The south elevation of the garage features a non-historic overhead garage door. To its right is another door made of wood. Although this wooden door is old, it is not the original door according to tax assessor photos. The gable end is decorated with ribbon-coursed square shingles like the front gable of the house. The garage’s east elevation likely once had tripled four-light, wood windows on the main portion of the building, but some of the glass has been replaced. The left window retains its four lights, the center window has just one large light, and the right widow has one light on its left side and two on its right. The north side of this elevation features a shed-roofed addition that projects east from the main building and also to the north. It appears that this shed-roofed portion was constructed in two phases, based on differences in roofing and siding interruption. Frank Ulrich took out a building permit in 1927 for “garage repairs,”35 but it is unknown whether that included the construction of this shed-roofed section. The south shed roof has overhanging eaves with exposed rafter ends, whereas the north portion does not. A stovepipe pokes out of the south shed roof as well. The north portion has a pair of single-light, square windows. The garage’s north elevation consists of a hipped roof addition, likely constructed in 1924 based on building permits and the 1925 Sanborn Map,36 and the north side of the shed addition. The hipped roof addition has overhanging eaves with exposed rafter ends. There is a six-light, wood window in its center. To the left of this window, there appears to be a small boarded-over window and boarded-over door opening. To the left of these elements is a four-light wood window, and the shed-roofed addition is just to its left. 35 Building Permit no. 1864, November 1, 1927, Permit Books, City of Fort Collins Historic Preservation Services, Community Development Building, Fort Collins, CO. 36 Building Permit no. 532, July 29, 1924, Permit Books, City of Fort Collins Historic Preservation Services, Community Development Building, Fort Collins, CO; 1925 Sanborn Map.

ULRICH PROPERTY, 516 LAPORTE AVE - APPLICATION FOR FORT COLLINS LANDMARK DESIGNATION STAFF Reyana Jones, Historic Preservation Specialist Karen McWilliams, Historic Preservation Manager PROJECT INFORMATION APPLICANT: Dale Eggleston, Owner PROJECT DESCRIPTION: This item is to consider the request for a recommendation to City Council for landmark designation of the Frank J. Ulrich Property. COMMISSION’S ROLE AND ACTION: One of the Commission’s responsibilities is to provide a recommendation to City Council on applications for the designation of a property as a Fort Collins Landmark. Chapter 14 of the Municipal Code provides the standards and process for designation. At the hearing, the Commission shall determine whether the following two (2) criteria are satisfied: (1) the proposed resource is eligible for designation; and (2) the requested designation will advance the policies and the purposes in a manner and extent sufficient to justify the requested designation. Following its review, and once the Commission feels it has the information it needs, the Commission should adopt a motion providing its recommendation on the property’s Landmark eligibility to City Council. RECOMMENDATION: Staff has determined that the Frank J. Ulrich Property is eligible for Fort Collins Landmark designation, having significance under Standard 3, Design/Construction and retaining all seven Aspects of Integrity. Staff recommends that the Landmark Preservation Commission approval a motion to Council recommending landmark designation. STAFF EVALUATION OF REVIEW CRITERIA STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE and EXTERIOR INTEGRITY Staff has determined that the Frank J. Ulrich Property is eligible under Standard 3, Design/Construction. Standards of Significance: Significance is the importance of a site, structure, object or district to the history, architecture, archeology, engineering or culture of our community, State or Nation. For designation as Fort Collins Landmarks or Fort Collins Landmark Districts properties must meet one (1) or more of the following standards: ATTACHMENT 3 8.3 Packet Pg. 119 Attachment: Staff Report (8521 : 516 Laporte Landmark Designation) Standard 1: Events The resource is associated with events that have made a recognizable contribution to the broad patterns of the history of the community, State or Nation. A resource can be associated with either or both of two (2) types of events: * A specific event marking an important moment in Fort Collins prehistory or history; and/or * A pattern of events or a historic trend that made a recognizable contribution to the development of the community, State or Nation. N/A Standard 2: Persons/ Groups The resource is associated with the lives of persons or groups of persons recognizable in the history of the community, State or Nation whose specific contributions to that history can be identified and documented. N/A Standard 3: Design/ Construction The resource embodies the identifiable characteristics of a type, period or method of construction; represents the work of a craftsman or architect whose work is distinguishable from others by its characteristic style and quality; possesses high artistic values or design concepts; or is part of a recognizable and distinguishable group of resources. The resource may be significant not only for the way it was originally constructed or crafted, but also for the way it was adapted at a later period, or for the way it illustrates changing tastes, attitudes, and/or uses over time. This property includes an excellent example of a Craftsman Bungalow. The 1924 house features characteristic Craftsman architectural details such as exposed rafter ends, windows with multi-light upper portions, and a prominent front porch made of a natural material- uncut stone. The large detached garage picks up some design elements from the house as well, notably the exposed rafter ends. YES Standard 4: Information potential The resource has yielded, or may be likely to yield, information important in prehistory or history. N/A Standards of Integrity Integrity is the ability of a site, structure, object or district to be able to convey its significance. The integrity of a resource is based on the degree to which it retains all or some of seven (7) aspects or qualities established by the U.S. Department of the Interior, National Park Service: location, design, setting, materials, workmanship, feeling and association. All seven qualities do not need to be present for a site, structure, object or district to be eligible as long as the overall sense of past time and place is evident. Standard 1: Location 16TLocation is the place where the resource was constructed or the place where the 16Thistoric or prehistoric event occurred. The house and garage have not been moved. YES 8.3 Packet Pg. 120 Attachment: Staff Report (8521 : 516 Laporte Landmark Designation) Standard 2: 16TDesign 16TDesign is the 16Tcombination of elements that create the form, plan space, structure and style of a resource. The design of the Frank J. Ulrich house, constructed in late 1924, has not changed since 1968, based on a tax assessor sketch. Although the original porch was remodeled in 1944, it does not detract from the house’s integrity because its distinct design is compatible with Craftsman style, and it is historic in its own right, executed by the home’s first owner, Frank Ulrich. The house still features exposed rafter ends, and many of the sash windows still have multi-light upper portions, indicative of the Craftsman design. The 1923 garage also retains its character-defining Craftsman details, like its exposed rafter ends, shingled gables, and multi-light windows. It has two additions that were likely constructed in 1924 and 1927 for Frank Ulrich, according to building permits for a “back porch” and “garage repairs,” respectively. These additions are visible in the 1968 tax assessor photo and sketch. YES Standard 3: Setting 16TSetting is the physical environment of a resource. Setting refers to 16Tthe character of the place; it involves how, not just where, the resource is situated and its relationship to the surrounding features and open space. This property retains its residential setting on Laporte Avenue. It remains open onto the alley to its east rather than being obscured by a fence. There are mature trees to the west of the house, as pictured in the 1968 tax assessor photo. YES Standard 4: Materials 16TMaterials are the physical elements that form a resource. The house and garage retain integrity of materials overall. The house’s character-defining materials, wood siding and windows, are mostly intact. The wood siding appears to be original and is consistent across the building. Most of the windows on the house appear to be historic, excluding the lower portion of one window on the north elevation, an egress window on the east elevation, and possibly basement windows on the west elevation that have been obscured by plastic awnings. The front and side doors of the house are modern doors. The garage‘s dropboard siding appears to be original. The windows also appear original, although the glass of some of the east windows appears to have been replaced, altering the number of lights. There appears to be an opening for a door and small window on the rear elevation, but these have been boarded up. YES Standard 5: Workmanship 16TWorkmanship is the physical evidence of the crafts 16Tof a particular culture or people during any given period in history or prehistory. It is the evidence of artisans' labor and skill in constructing or altering a building, structure or site. 41TSeveral details on this house and garage evoke the workmanship of the builder. For example, the house and garage both features architectural elements of exposed rafter ends and square, ribbon coursed shingles in their gable ends. The house also has an unusual front porch with a knee wall of uncut stone and square columns. YES 8.3 Packet Pg. 121 Attachment: Staff Report (8521 : 516 Laporte Landmark Designation) Standard 6: Feeling Feeling is a resource’s expression of the aesthetic or historic sense of a particular period or time. It results from the presence of physical features that, taken together, convey the resource's historic or prehistoric character. 41TThis house evokes the feeling of a Craftsman Bungalow from the early to mid-twentieth century through its retention of design, materials, and workmanship. Though the porch was remodeled in the 1940s, its prominence is suggestive of the porches of other Craftsman-style bungalows. This feeling is reinforced by the similarity between the garage and house’s architectural details. 41TThis property also promotes the feeling of its neighborhood along Laporte Avenue. Many of the houses in the area, like the one on the Frank J. Ulrich Property, are single-story, modest bungalows. The Frank J. Ulrich Property is representative of the kind of homes in this neighborhood. YES Standard 7: Association Association is the direct link between an important event or person and a historic or prehistoric resource. A resource retains association if it is the place where the event or activity occurred and is sufficiently intact to convey that relationship to an observer. Like feeling, association requires the presence of physical features that convey a property's historic character. The relative size of the house and garage speaks to the property’s association with their first owner: Frank J. Ulrich. Frank Ulrich was a well-known automobile painter in town. Interestingly, the unusually large garage was constructed before the house on the lot. The continued prominence of the garage on this property speaks to this association. YES ALIGNMENT WITH CITY CODE AND PURPOSE Policy (a) It is hereby declared as a matter of public policy that the protection, enhancement and perpetuation of sites, structures, objects and districts of historical, architectural, archeological, or geographic significance, located within the City, are a public necessity and are required in the interest of the prosperity, civic pride and general welfare of the people.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The purpose of this item is to determine substantial compliance and initiate annexation proceedings for the Soldier Canyon Pump Station Annexation. The Applicant has submitted a written petition requesting the annexation. The purpose of the annexation is to allow the Soldier Canyon Pump Station to be served by Fort Collins Light and Power, rather than Xcel Energy. This is a voluntary annexation. The Soldier Canyon Pump Station Annexation totals 0.702 acres; it achieves the required 1/6 perimeter boundary contiguity with the existing municipal boundaries to the north, west and south. The site is enclosed on three sides by the City of Fort Collins Water Treatment Facility at 4316 LaPorte Avenue. The annexation would incorporate the site into Fort Collins’ municipal boundaries, as well as the Residential Neighborhood Sign District. The requested zoning for this annexation is Residential Foothills (R-F), in compliance with the City of Fort Collins Structure Plan designation of the “Campus District” place type. No project development plan proposal was submitted in conjunction with the annexation application. This annexation request is in conformance with the State of Colorado Revised Statutes as they relate to annexations, the City of Fort Collins Comprehensive Plan, and the Larimer County and City of Fort Collins Intergovernmental Agreement Regarding Growth Management STAFF RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends adoption of the Resolution. BACKGROUND / DISCUSSION The proposed Resolution makes a finding that the petition substantially complies with the Municipal Annexation Act, determines that a hearing should be established regarding the annexation, and directs that notice be given of the hearing. The hearing will be held at the time of First Reading of the annexation and zoning ordinances. The proposed zoning of a property to be annexed is not a requirement under § 31-12-107, C.R.S., and discussion of zoning issues should be reserved for the zoning review that will occur concurrent to the first reading for the annexation. Not less than thirty days of prior notice is required by state law. The Soldier Canyon Pump Station property and adjacent City Water Treatment Facility are located outside the Fort Collins Growth Management Area. Pursuant to Section 7.F. in the Larimer County and City of Fort Collins Intergovernmental Agreements, the City of Fort Collins, at its sole discretion, may annex outside the Fort Collins GMA. 9 Packet Pg. 133 Agenda Item 9 Item # 9 Page 2 The 0.702-acre Soldier Canyon Pump Station Annexation total contiguous perimeter (523.58 feet) is 74%, which satisfies the one-sixth (1/6) area of contiguity required. Contiguity is gained from the 2017 Water Treatment Facility Annexation No. 4. The Soldier Canyon Pump Station property owned by Platte River Power Authority (Platte River) is surrounded on three sides by property that is located within the City of Fort Collins. The property is currently served by Xcel Energy, utilizing a feeder line that crosses the City Water Treatment Plant site. In order to better utilize its property, the City initiated a request to remove Xcel’s service feeding Platte River’s property. The annexation of the Solider Canyon Pump Station property will allow Platte River to obtain electric service from the City and discontinue service from Xcel. This will allow the Xcel feeder line to be removed from City property. CITY FINANCIAL IMPACTS The annexation and zoning will not result in any initial direct significant financial/economic impacts. Electric service will be transferred from Xcel Energy to Fort Collins Light and Power. Future development will also trigger the transition from law enforcement by the Larimer County Sheriff to Fort Collins Police Services. Water and wastewater utility services will be provided by the City of Fort Collins. BOARD / COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION The Planning and Zoning Board will conduct a public hearing on the annexation and zoning request on December 19, 2019. The Board’s recommendation will be forwarded to City Council as part of the First Reading of the annexation and zoning ordinances on February 4, 2020. PUBLIC OUTREACH There was no public outreach for this initiating Resolution, as this Resolution simply accepts the Annexation Petition and provides a schedule for upcoming Council hearings with a schedule and notification requirements that comply with State Statutes.

The Applicant has submitted a written petition requesting three sequential annexations. Timberline-International Annexation No. 2. is the second Resolution of this series of three sequential annexations, and totals 0.86 acres of North Timberline Road and International Boulevard Right-of-Way, which establishes 1/6 perimeter boundary contiguity with the existing municipal boundaries to the north, located northeast of the North Timberline Road and International Boulevard intersection, into Fort Collins’ municipal boundaries, as well as into the Residential Neighborhood Sign District. The requested zoning for this annexation is Industrial (I), in compliance with the City of Fort Collins Structure Plan and the East Mulberry Corridor Plan. Notice to parcels abutting platted streets was provided pursuant to §31-12-105, C.R.S. No project development plan proposal was submitted in conjunction with the annexation application. This annexation request is in conformance with the State of Colorado Revised Statutes as they relate to annexations, the City of Fort Collins Comprehensive Plan, and the Larimer County and City of Fort Collins Intergovernmental Agreement Regarding Growth Management. STAFF RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends adoption of the Resolution. BACKGROUND / DISCUSSION The proposed Resolution makes a finding that the petition substantially complies with the Municipal Annexation Act, determines that a hearing should be established regarding the annexation, and directs that notice be given of the hearing. The hearing will be held at the time of First Reading of the annexation and zoning ordinances. The proposed zoning of a property to be annexed is not a requirement under § 31-12-107, C.R.S., and discussion of zoning issues should be reserved for the zoning review that will occur concurrent to the first reading for the annexation. Not less than thirty days of prior notice is required by state law. The property is located within the Fort Collins Growth Management Area. According to policies and agreements between the City of Fort Collins and Larimer County contained in the Intergovernmental Agreement for the Fort Collins Growth Management Area, the City agrees to consider annexation of property in the GMA when the property is eligible for annexation according to State law. 11 Packet Pg. 163 Agenda Item 11 Item # 11 Page 2 The 0.86-acre Timberline-International Annexation No. 2 has a total contiguous perimeter (219.41 feet) of 17%, which satisfies the one-sixth (1/6) area required. Contiguity is gained from the 2002 East Ridge Annexation. CITY FINANCIAL IMPACTS The annexation and zoning will not result in any initial direct significant financial/economic impacts. Electric service will be transferred from Poudre Valley REA to Fort Collins Light and Power. Future development will also trigger the transition of law enforcement from Larimer County Sheriff to Fort Collins Police Services. Water utility services will continue to be provided by the East Larimer County (ELCO) Water District and wastewater utility service by the Boxelder Sanitation District. BOARD / COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION The Planning and Zoning Board will conduct a public hearing on the annexation and zoning request on December 19, 2019. The Board’s recommendation will be forwarded to City Council as part of the First Reading of the annexation and zoning ordinances on February 4, 2020. PUBLIC OUTREACH There was no public outreach for this initiating Resolution as this Resolution simply accepts the Annexation Petition and provides a schedule for upcoming Council hearings with a schedule and notification requirements that comply with State Statutes. A neighborhood meeting was held on August 29, 2019, for the annexation, zoning, and conceptual plans for the Timberline-International property. ATTACHMENTS 1. Vicinity Map (PDF) 2.

The Applicant has submitted a written petition requesting three sequential annexations. Timberline-International Annexation No. 3. is the third Resolution of this series of three sequential annexations, and totals 1.39 acres, which establishes 1/6 perimeter boundary contiguity with the existing municipal boundaries to the south and east, located northwest of the North Timberline Road and International Boulevard intersection, into Fort Collins’ municipal boundaries, as well as into the Residential Neighborhood Sign District. The requested zoning for this annexation is Industrial (I), in compliance with the City of Fort Collins Structure Plan and the East Mulberry Corridor Plan. Notice to parcels abutting platted streets was provided pursuant to §31-12-105, C.R.S. No project development plan proposal was submitted in conjunction with the annexation application. This annexation request is in conformance with the State of Colorado Revised Statutes as they relate to annexations, the City of Fort Collins Comprehensive Plan, and the Larimer County and City of Fort Collins Intergovernmental Agreement Regarding Growth Management. STAFF RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends adoption of the Resolution. BACKGROUND / DISCUSSION The proposed Resolution makes a finding that the petition substantially complies with the Municipal Annexation Act, determines that a hearing should be established regarding the annexation, and directs that notice be given of the hearing. The hearing will be held at the time of First Reading of the annexation and zoning ordinances. The proposed zoning of a property to be annexed is not a requirement under § 31-12-107, C.R.S., and discussion of zoning issues should be reserved for the zoning review that will occur concurrent to the first reading for the annexation. Not less than thirty days of prior notice is required by state law. The property is located within the Fort Collins Growth Management Area. According to policies and agreements between the City of Fort Collins and Larimer County contained in the Intergovernmental Agreement for the Fort Collins Growth Management Area, the City agrees to consider annexation of property in the GMA when the property is eligible for annexation according to State law. 12 Packet Pg. 174 Agenda Item 12 Item # 12 Page 2 The 1.39-acre Timberline-International Annexation No. 3 has a total contiguous perimeter (352.65 feet) of 33%, which satisfies the one-sixth (1/6) area required. Contiguity is gained from the 2002 East Ridge Annexation. CITY FINANCIAL IMPACTS The annexation and zoning will not result in any initial direct significant financial/economic impacts. Electric service will be transferred from Poudre Valley REA to Fort Collins Light and Power. Future development will also trigger the transition of law enforcement from Larimer County Sheriff to Fort Collins Police Services. Water utility services will continue to be provided by the East Larimer County (ELCO) Water District and wastewater utility service by the Boxelder Sanitation District. BOARD / COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION The Planning and Zoning Board will conduct a public hearing on the annexation and zoning request on December 19, 2019. The Board’s recommendation will be forwarded to City Council as part of the First Reading of the annexation and zoning ordinances on February 4, 2020. PUBLIC OUTREACH There was no public outreach for this initiating Resolution as this Resolution simply accepts the Annexation Petition and provides a schedule for upcoming Council hearings with a schedule and notification requirements that comply with State Statutes. A neighborhood meeting was held on August 29, 2019, for the annexation, zoning, and conceptual plans for the Timberline-International property. ATTACHMENTS 1. Vicinity Map (PDF) 2.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The purpose of this item is to request Council authority to extend the existing arrangements with Voya and Anthem, who each provide administrator services for a portion of the City’s employee benefits program, for up to two additional one-year terms to ensure the successful completion of the City’s new benefits program without overextending the cross-departmental resources of the City. Additionally, the extension will allow the time necessary to optimize the competitive process for these services to the benefit of the City and its employees. This exception will follow the process set forth in Code Section 8-161(d)(2-4): (1) The Purchasing Agent shall submit each determination made under this Subsection (d) to the City Manager, who shall approve or reject the procurement. (2) The City Manager shall submit all procurements under this Subsection (d) which exceed a cost of two hundred thousand dollars ($200,000.) to the City Council in an open meeting for final approval. (3) Any procurement approved under this Section by the City Manager or the City Council may be used as the basis for a negotiated purchase of additional quantities of the same materials or services at any time within a period of five (5) years from the date of approval; provided, however, that subsequent procurements may be expressly limited to a specific number of purchases or a period of less than five (5) years. STAFF RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends adoption of the Resolution. BACKGROUND / DISCUSSION The City currently offers two competitive life insurance plans administered through Voya and Anthem. Voya also provides short- and long-term disability. Voya’s contract was awarded through an RFP process in 2014 with an effective date of January 1, 2015 and is set to expire on December 31, 2019. Anthem has been providing life insurance administrator services to the City since 1996. Given the length of time Anthem has provided these services, staff recognizes the need to reevaluate this relationship but wants to continue the relationship with Anthem for the time being to avoid a detrimental impact to the benefits the City provides to employees. During the past year the benefits team has partnered with the City’s benefit consultant, HUB International, to review, audit and determine if both plans are aligned with our health programs and market competitiveness. This process has identified several opportunities for improving our program. Conducting a competitive process incorporating the identified opportunities is anticipated to require multiple RFPs and may take upward of six months to complete. Additionally, once contracting is completed, the program changes will 13 Packet Pg. 185 Agenda Item 13 Item # 13 Page 2 need to be implemented, which will be a multi-department collaborative effort requiring up to nine months to complete. As such, it is not logistically possible to complete this process within the specified term of the City’s current agreements. Additionally, knowing the City will begin the record-keeping transition process for 2020, we wish to be mindful of the impact of these changes upon City staff and resources. CITY FINANCIAL IMPACTS (1) Development and implementation of a new life & disability insurance program within JDE is a 9-month multi- departmental effort, which will include HR, Finance, Payroll and IT departments. (2) VOYA and Anthem have agreed to keep our rates locked for 2020 for an anticipated total expenditure of $1,095,000 and $250,000, respectively. 13 Packet Pg. 186 -1- RESOLUTION 2019-115 OF THE COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF FORT COLLINS APPROVING THE PURCHASE OF ADMINISTRATOR SERVICES FOR LIFE INSURANCE, SHORT-TERM AND LONG-TERM DISABILITY INSURANCE FROM VOYA AND ANTHEM AS AN EXCEPTION TO THE COMPETITIVE PURCHASING PROCESS WHEREAS, Section 8-161(d)(1)(b) of the City Code authorizes the Purchasing Agent to negotiate purchases of materials, professional services and services without utilizing a competitive bidding or proposal process when the Purchasing Agent determines that although there may be more than one source, the competitive process cannot reasonably be used, or if used will result in a substantially higher cost to the City, will otherwise injure the City’s financial interests or will substantially impede the City’s administrative functions or the delivery of services to the public; and WHEREAS, in coordination with the City’s benefit consultant, HUB International, City staff has undertaken a review of the City’s employee health benefits program in the context of market competitiveness and has identified several opportunities for improving said program; and WHEREAS, City staff anticipates incorporating said opportunities into a competitive process to identify a new provider or providers for life insurance, short-term disability and long- term disability benefits; WHEREAS, City staff anticipates the competitive process will require multiple requests for proposals that may take upward of six months to complete, and the transition to the chosen provider or providers could take an additional nine months; and WHEREAS, because of the time anticipated for a new competitive process, City staff is requesting that City Council authorize the Purchasing Agent to extend the agreements identified herein for up to two additional one-year terms; and WHEREAS, since 2015 the City has offered a life insurance plan and short-term and long-term disability benefits administered by Reliastar Life Insurance Company, doing business as Voya Employee Benefits, (“Voya”); and WHEREAS, the City’s current agreement with Voya will expire on December 31, 2019; and WHEREAS, Voya has agreed to continue to offer its services for 2020 at existing rates, with the anticipated total expenditure for Voya’s services to be $1,095,000; and WHEREAS, the Purchasing Agent has determined that, although there may be more than one responsible source for administrator services for life insurance, short-term disability and long-term disability benefits, the competitive process cannot be reasonably used in this instance because of the time constraints presented by the upcoming expiration of Voya’s agreement combined with the expected lengthy competitive process to improve on the City’s employee health benefits program; and Packet Pg. 187 -2- WHEREAS, the Purchasing Agent further determined that using a competitive process under these constraints would substantially impede the City’s administrative functions, and continuing Voya’s services would simplify administration of the employee health benefits program; and WHEREAS, since 1996 the City has also offered a life insurance plan administered by Anthem Life Insurance Company (“Anthem”); and WHEREAS, given the length of this relationship with Anthem, City staff desires to reevaluate the relationship but desires to maintain Anthem as an administrator for the time being to avoid a detrimental impact to the benefits the City provides to employees; and WHEREAS, Anthem has agreed to continue to offer its services for 2020 at existing rates, with the anticipated total expenditure for Anthem’s services to be $250,000; and WHEREAS, the Purchasing Agent has determined that, although there may be more than one responsible source for administrator services for life insurance benefits, the competitive process cannot be reasonably used in this instance because of the time constraints presented by the upcoming expiration of Anthem’s agreement combined with the expected lengthy competitive process to improve on the City’s employee health benefits program; and WHEREAS, the Purchasing Agent further determined that using a competitive process under these constraints would substantially impede the City’s administrative functions, and continuing Anthem’s services would simplify administration of the employee health benefits program; and WHEREAS, Section 8-161(d)(3) of the City Code requires City Council’s prior approval for this purchasing approach when the procurement exceeds $200,000. NOW THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED 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. Section 2. That the City Council hereby approves the purchase of administrator services from Reliastar Life Insurance Company, doing business as Voya Employee Benefits, as an exception to the City’s competitive purchasing process requirements for the reasons set forth herein, and authorizes the Purchasing Agent to extend the current agreement for up to two (2) one-year terms. Section 3. That the City Council hereby approves the purchase of administrator services from Anthem Life Insurance Company as an exception to the City’s competitive purchasing process requirements for the reasons set forth herein, and authorizes the Purchasing Agent to extend the current agreement for up to two (2) one-year terms.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The purpose of this item is to request Council authority to extend the existing agreement with Marathon Health under RFP 7512 On-Site Employee Wellness Clinic for two additional one-year terms. In alignment with Larimer County, staff will begin the RFP process the first quarter 2021 for a January 1, 2022 contract. This exception will follow the process set forth in Code Section 8-161(d)(2-4): A. The Purchasing Agent shall submit each determination made under this Subsection (d) to the City Manager, who shall approve or reject the procurement. B. The City Manager shall submit all procurements under this Subsection (d) which exceed a cost of two hundred thousand dollars ($200,000.) to the City Council in an open meeting for final approval. C. Any procurement approved under this Section by the City Manager or the City Council may be used as the basis for a negotiated purchase of additional quantities of the same materials or services at any time within a period of five (5) years from the date of approval; provided, however, that subsequent procurements may be expressly limited to a specific number of purchases or a period of less than five (5) years. STAFF RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends adoption of the Resolution. BACKGROUND / DISCUSSION In 2015, the City conducted an RFP process, 7512 On-Site Employee Wellness Clinic, to establish an on-site medical clinic for employees, with the intention of improving overall employee health, medical accessibility, and reducing medical costs to the City. Marathon Health was selected to create a best in class, on-site clinic for our employees and their family members. In 2017, Marathon Health provided an annual review to leadership which resulted in a request to review and identify costs associated with the clinic as it relates to a potential return on the City’s investment. Beginning in 2018, benefits consultant, HUB International, was engaged to review a return on investment (ROI) analysis related to redirected care. Utilizing data from this analysis, staff collaborated with Marathon Health to review the data and discuss opportunities, goals and metrics for enhancing clinical outcomes, increased capabilities, and alignment with the City’s health and wellness programs. This collaborative process successfully led to the development of a defined roadmap for the clinic into 2020 through 2021. In order to properly evaluate the value of the on-site clinic in meeting the City employee needs and also its alignment with the City’s benefits strategy, staff recommends extending the existing Agreement with Marathon Health through the end of 2021. 14 Packet Pg. 190 Agenda Item 14 Item # 14 Page 2 Additionally, changes in the health care climate in the Front Range have the potential to significantly change the medical benefits market over the next few years. Knowing that these changes are coming, the City is partnering with Larimer County, which also utilizes services from Marathon Health, to share data and identify any potential partnerships. This collaborative effort will aide both organizations in identifying opportunities for improvement and cost savings. Staff intends to capitalize on this collaborative effort in the development and implementation of the new on-site clinic RFP in the first quarter 2021, with the intention of entering into a new agreement from the process effective January 1, 2022. CITY FINANCIAL IMPACTS (1) The benefit’s team does not have the bandwidth for the adequate development and completion of a competitive process (RFP) for these services in light of other competitive benefits processes necessitated in 2019 (Vision, Dental, Employee Assistance Program, and Retirement Fund Actuarial Services, etc). (2) Marathon Health has agreed to keep our Annual Service fee locked at the 2019 rate for 2020 for an anticipated expenditure of $850,000.

AS AN EXCEPTION TO THE COMPETITIVE PURCHASING PROCESS WHEREAS, Section 8-161(d)(1)(b) of the City Code authorizes the Purchasing Agent to negotiate purchases of materials, professional services and services without utilizing a competitive bidding or proposal process when the Purchasing Agent determines that although there may be more than one source, the competitive process cannot reasonably be used, or if used will result in a substantially higher cost to the City, will otherwise injure the City’s financial interests or will substantially impede the City’s administrative functions or the delivery of services to the public; and WHEREAS, the City has offered employees and their families health services at an onsite wellness clinic provided by Marathon Health, Inc. (“Marathon”) since August 8, 2014; and WHEREAS, the City’s current agreement with Marathon will expire on January 14, 2020; and WHEREAS, in coordination with Marathon and the City’s benefit consultant, HUB International, City staff has undertaken a review of the costs and return on investment with respect to the wellness clinic, and identified opportunities to enhance clinical outcomes, increase capabilities, and align the clinic more closely with the City’s health and wellness programs; and WHEREAS, this collaborative process has resulted in a defined roadmap for the clinic into 2020 and 2021; and WHEREAS, Marathon has agreed to waive its right to an annual 2% increase on its annual service fee, meaning Marathon will provide services in 2020 at its 2019 rates, and is willing to negotiate its fees for 2021; and WHEREAS, the anticipated total expenditure for Marathon’s services in 2020 are anticipated to be $850,000; and WHEREAS, City staff is recommending that Council grant the Purchasing Agent authority to extend Marathon’s agreement for two additional one-year terms, which will allow City staff the time to properly evaluate the value of the wellness clinic in meeting the City’s benefits strategy and employee needs; and WHEREAS, the Purchasing Agent has determined that, although there may be more than one responsible source for health services at the wellness clinic, the competitive process, if used will result in substantially higher costs to the City, would injure the City’s financial interests by interfering with the City’s ability to fully evaluate the clinic in light of its costs and the City’s employee wellness goals, and would otherwise substantially impede the City’s administrative functions as the City’s benefits team undertakes the development of competitive processes for identifying providers for other employee health and retirement benefits; and Packet Pg. 192 -2- WHEREAS, Section 8-161(d)(3) of the City Code requires City Council’s prior approval for this purchasing approach when the procurement exceeds $200,000.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The purpose of this item is to support the extension of a deadline for participants in the North Front Range Regional Wasteshed Coalition Intergovernmental Agreement to update their hauler licensing from January 1, 2020 to April 1, 2020. STAFF RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends adoption of the Resolution. BACKGROUND / DISCUSSION The Larimer County Landfill is anticipated to reach capacity in 2024. In anticipation of this shift in local infrastructure, a regional coalition comprised of Fort Collins, Larimer County, Loveland, and Estes Park worked together for four years to create the Solid Waste Infrastructure Master Plan (SWIMP), which Larimer County adopted in December 2018. It calls for Larimer County to build a new landfill in northern Larimer County, and to build a transfer station, construction and demolition recycling center, and composting facility for food scraps and yard trimmings on the land adjacent to the existing landfill. The implementation of the SWIMP is supported by an intergovernmental agreement (IGA) that was approved by Fort Collins on April 16, 2019. The IGA confirms the responsibilities for constructing the infrastructure and for supportive policy adoption. The IGA also called for the creation of a Policy Council, on which Mayor Troxell and Councilmember Cunniff represent Fort Collins. Hauler Licensing Among other details, the IGA also calls for Larimer County and other communities that do not already have trash / recycling hauler licensing programs to update or adopt a hauler licensing program that meets minimum thresholds by January 1, 2020. Fort Collins’ hauler licensing program is already in compliance with this section of the IGA. Since adoption of the IGA, there has been staff turnover at Larimer County, and a substantial workload of getting the infrastructure development projects started, which has resulted in delay of the hauler licensing programs of approximately two to three months. At its October meeting, the Policy Council acknowledged the outstanding circumstances and expressed support for the delay in hauler licensing updates to allow time for stakeholder engagement and time to further develop the licensing alongside many other wasteshed projects. Item #15a Page 1 This item was added to the Consent Agenda on December 16, 2019 Agenda Item Item # Page 2 This Resolution acknowledges the shift in the deadline for updated hauler licensing requirements to April 1, 2020. -1- RESOLUTION 2019-118 OF THE COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF FORT COLLINS AUTHORIZING EXTENSION OF THE DATE FOR IMPLEMENTATION OF HAULER LICENSING PROGRAMS UNDER THE INTERGOVERNMENTAL AGREEMENT FOR SOLID WASTE PROGRAMMING AND INFRASTRUCTURE IMPROVEMENTS WHEREAS, pursuant to Resolution 2019-047, the Fort Collins City Council (“City Council”) authorized the Mayor to execute the Intergovernmental Agreement for Solid Waste Programming and Infrastructure Improvements (the “IGA”); and WHEREAS, under the IGA, the City of Fort Collins, City of Loveland, Town of Estes Park and Board of County Commissioners of Larimer County, Colorado agreed to work cooperatively to implement the County’s Solid Waste Infrastructure Master Plan by agreeing upon infrastructure and facility improvements, education, hauler licensing and other program elements to provide coordinated approach to solid waste services within Larimer County and increase material diversion from landfill disposal; and WHEREAS, Sections 5.1.5 and 5.2.2 of the IGA set forth the obligations of the parties to develop and implement coordinated licensing programs for solid waste and recycling haulers (the “Licensing Programs”) no later than January 1, 2020; and WHEREAS, additional time is required to fully develop and implement the Licensing Programs contemplated by the IGA; and WHEREAS, the City Council has determined that extension of the date for implementation of the Licensing Programs under the IGA is in the best interests of the City. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF FORT COLLINS: Section 1. That the City Council hereby makes any and all determinations and findings contained in the recitals set forth above. Section 2. That the City Council hereby approves extension of the date for development and implementation of the Licensing Programs under Sections 5.1.5 and 5.2.2 of the IGA to occur no later than April 1, 2020.
