EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
This is the first public hearing on the City Manager’s 2021 Recommended Budget for the City of Fort Collins.
The purpose of this public hearing is to gather public input on the 2021 budget.
In an effort to receive further public input, a second public hearing is scheduled for City Council’s Tuesday,
October 6, 2020, regular meeting at 6:00 p.m. in Council Chambers (adhering to all social distancing
requirements) with the option for remote participation through the online Zoom meeting platform. Both
hearings were set by Council adoption of Resolution 2020-081 at its September 1, 2020, meeting. The City
Manager’s 2021 Recommended Budget can be reviewed at the City Clerk’s Office by appointment only and
online at fcgov.com/budget.
On May 19, 2020, Council adopted Ordinance No. 067, 2020, suspending the biennial budget term
requirement in Code Section 8-1 for fiscal years 2021 and 2022 in order to allow for a one-year budget term for
both years, and to return to the biennial budget term required by Code Section 8-1 beginning with fiscal years
2023 and 2024.
