Institute. 1991 Edition, With Amendments.
The City of Fort Collins has historically adopted the Uniform Fire Code as
its primary code for the identification and abatement of fire safety
hazards: This model code is developed and published by the International
Fire Code Institute ("IFCI") on three year cycles. The 1988 edition is
currently adopted by the City. Poudre Fire Authority is requesting that
City Council adopt the 1991 edition with certain local amendments.
This Ordinance, which was unanimously adopted on First Reading on December
15, contains no major changes from past code requirements or practices,
however, since First Reading of this Ordinance, minor editorial changes
have been made to correct typographical errors. It continues the local
programs in hazardous materials and underground storage tanks adopted in
1991 and 1989 respectively. This Code is a companion one to the Uniform
Building and Mechanical Codes adopted by the City and Larimer County.

Fort Collins Police Services has applied for and been awarded an Emergency
Management Assistance ("EMA") grant for federal fiscal year 1992. These
funds are allocated by the Federal Emergency Management Agency to support
emergency management program activities at the local level. Local
jurisdictions must first meet specific program requirements and must have
an established disaster agency and plan.

$10,665 for the time period from January 1, 1992 to September 30, 1992.
Ordinance No. 137, 1992, which was unanimously adopted on First Reading on

Ordinance No. 139, 1992, which was unanimously adopted on First Reading on
December 15, amends Section 22-97 of the City Code and permits the City
Council to approve, by resolution, a reduction in the statutory redemption
interest rate under certain circumstances. These circumstances are that
such statutory redemption interest rate not be reduced below the highest
rate of interest owed on any of the bonds which are paid with assessments
collected from the property described in the certificate of purchase, and
that the City Council finds that such reduction will not impair payment of
the principal and interest owing under the affected bonds and tha•`_ such
reduction is in the best interests of the City. Staff believes that this
change is advisable because it would, in appropriate circumstances, allow
property owners to redeem their properties at a reduced penalty rate,
while still protecting the interests of the bondholders.
Ordinance No. 140, 1992, which was unanimously adopted on First Reading on
December 15, amends Section 23-111(c) of the Code to streamline the notice
requirements that the City must satisfy whenever it is considering selling
a certificate of purchase for less than its face value. The specific
change made is to require that notice be sent to bondholders if, in the
judgment of the Financial Officer, the proposed sale and assignment of the
certificate of purchase will impair in any way the payment of any
principal or interest owing to the bondholders of the bonds which are paid
with assessments collected from the property described in the certificate
' of purchase the City is proposing to sell. As Section 23-111(c) currently
reads, notice to bondholders is required in all circumstances regardless
of whether payment of the bonds would be impaired. Therefore, the change
will make future sales of tax certificates of purchase easier to
accomplish.

While the Sign Code has generally worked well, there has been growing
concern about signage as it applies to non-residential land uses in
predominantly residential areas. This concern was affirmed in the City
Council 1991 - 1993 Work Plan and the 1990 Audit of the Land Development
Guidance System wherein staff was directed to review the Sign Code and
prepare necessary changes to address these concerns. Ordinance No. 141,
1992, which was unanimously adopted on First Reading on December 15,
addresses these concerns. In general, the recommendations are. two -fold:
First, new standards are being recommended for the Sign Code which will
regulate the amount, location and design of signs for non-residential land
uses in residential areas. Second, these provisions only apply to non-
residential developments located in the "Residential Neighborhood Sign
District", which is considered to be those areas of the community that are
predominantly residential in use and character. This District excludes
' predominately commercial areas, such as, College Avenue, Downtown and

The City issued $800,000 of industrial development revenue Bonds in 1982
for the Tulakes Associates Project. The proceeds of the bonds allowed the
construction and equipping of an office and manufacturing facility in the
City.
The lender for the transaction in 1982 was Denver National Bank which
later became Affiliated National Bank -Denver, and has subsequently become
Bank One, Denver, N.A.
The initial bond issue was structured as a ten year bond, with a balloon
payment in 1992. At the time the 1982 bonds were issued, project
proponents envisioned refinancing of the debt in 1992 to lower interest
rates.
Tulakes Associates and Bank One have agreed to refinance the project to
extend the term of the bonds for up to an additional ten (10) years. As
issuer of the bonds, the City must also consent to the modification of the
bonds. Over the years, the tax laws have changed. The extension of the
bonds will change their tax status from tax-exempt to taxable.
Ordinance No. 1, 1993, authorizes the Mayor and the City Clerk to endorse
and sign the documents required to make the changes to the bonds.
Hearing and First Reading of Ordinance No. 2, 1993 Annexing Certain
Properties Into the Downtown Development Authority District.
Brett Larimer has petitioned to include the property he owns in the 300
block of Mathews Street in the Downtown Development Authority District.
To be annexed, the property or properties must be contiguous to the
existing district and all property owners must consent to the annexation.
In this instance, Mr. Larimer's property is separated from the DDA
District by a City -owned parking lot located behind the DMA Plaza
building.

To meet the legal requirements for annexation, the City must authorize the
annexation of its own property into the DDA District, approve the
annexation of Mr. Larimer's property, and amend the DDA creation ordinance
to include the additions of both these properties within the District.
The Larimer County Boys and Girls Club (formerly Activities Youth Center)
has been in existence since October 1986. The center is located in the
downtown area at 246 North College, and is easily accessible to youth.
The center provides a variety of recreational and personal growth
activities for youth ages 10 to 18. Participation numbers for 1991 were
1,789 unduplicated participants, while 1992 through October has increased
to 3,035. The City desires to enter into this agreement with the Larimer
County Boys and Girls Club to provide at no or minimal fee, recreation
activities and personal growth opportunities for youth in the community
ages 10 to 18.

Resolution 93-5
Selecting a Design Concept for
Improvements to Shields Street from
Project Road to Laurel Street, Adopted Alternative 2 as Amended.
The following is staff's memorandum on this item.
"FINANCIAL IMPACT
Alternative 2: (P&Z Alternative)
Provide On Street Bike Lanes $407,000
Realignment of North Drive 50,000
Additional Funds Needed S457,000
CSU's Contribution for North Drive S 25,000
Choices 95 Revenues/Savings 348,000
114 Cent Necessary Capital 84,000
Total - Recommended Funds Available $457,000
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY ,
After spending over a year gathering community wide input, working with the
adjoining property owners, and the area neighborhood association on this Choices
95 project, consensus was not achieved. The issue that remains, whether to widen
the street to add bike lanes, is a conflict between community transportation
values and neighborhood values.
As requested by City Council, the P&Z Board has reviewed the proposed design
alternatives and listened to the neighborhood's concerns. P&Z is recommending
6' bike lanes on the street, but it recommends that the splash strip/sidewalks
be narrowed to a width of 8' for a maximum right-of-way width of 84' in the
residential district. Staff believes this recommendation will work except at the
right turn lanes and along the west side between Plum and Birch Streets.
BACKGROUND:
ISSUES FOR DISCUSSION:
The primary issue remaining in the. decision between two design concepts, besides
funding, is whether the bike lanes should be on the street or on the sidewalks.
Many in the community desire to provide separate facilities for bikes/pedestrians
by adding on street bike lanes, but this is in conflict with the Prospect/Shields
Neighborhood Association's (PSNA's) desire to protect the residential character
of their neighborhood by keeping Shields Street at its present width between the
curbs. '
333
January 5, 1993
Neighborhood Recommendation - Alternative No. 1
The PSNA desires to protect the residential character of the neighborhood by
keeping Shields Street at its present width and to minimize the impacts to the
individual property owners. The PSNA would like Alternative I with 10' sidewalks
to be shared by bicyclists and pedestrians. Staff is recommending that, if
Alternative I is selected, 3' wide splash strips be added to each side as shown
below in Alternative 1.

WITH SPLASH STRIPS
COST - $1,440,000 BUDGET - $1,348,000 OVER BUDGET - $92,000
This concept, approved by the Choices 95 Committee, would place both bicyclists
and pedestrians on bi-directional 10' wide sidewalks on each side of Shields
Street. The project scope also includes the construction of right turn lanes for
south bound Shields at Elizabeth, and north bound Shields at Laurel, which are
included in both alternatives. Although the 10' sidewalks would be a significant
improvement over the present lack of facilities along Shields Street, this
alternative has a high number of potential pedestrian/bicyclist conflicts and
bicyclist/motorist conflicts. Pedestrians and bicyclists alike oppose this
alternative.
P&Z Recommendation
The Planning and Zoning Board recommends the alternative that has bike lanes on
street, but recommends the splash strip/sidewalks be narrowed to 8' for a maximum
334
January 5, 1993
right-of-way width of 84' in the residential district to be more sensitive to the
impacts to the residential property owners. Staff supports this compromise.
With the desire to meet the Transportation Policies adopted by Council and in
response to overwhelming community input, staff recommends that the Choices 95
Committee's suggested project scope be modified to separate bicycle and
pedestrian facilities. Staff spent over one year presenting three design
alternatives to the community and the neighborhood for input. The following
Boards and community groups have all endorsed the alternative that has bike lanes
on the street.

These improvements will provide safe access to CSU for bicyclists and
pedestrians, and will provide a needed route for commuter bicyclists. This
option allows for continuity with City Street Standards and meets Transportation
Policies. This alternative greatly improves the safety of this section of
Shields Street by minimizing the number of potential conflicts between
pedestrians/bicyclists and bicyclists/motorists.
North Drive and Plum Street
Input received from the public at the Open Houses, the CSU Transportation
Committee, and the Office of Facilities Planning at CSU has indicated a serious ,
335
January 5, 1993
need to reconstruct North Drive to align with Plum Street to eliminate the off-
set at the intersection. If North Drive is reconstructed along with Shields
Street it can be done relatively inexpensively, and will greatly improve the
traffic flow of all transportation modes along both Shields Street and the
Plum/North corridor. CSU has indicated that it is willing to split the estimated
cost of $50,000. Therefore, the City's additional cost for the realignment of
North Drive will be $25,000.
IMPACT MITIGATION:
There are many impacts to the adjacent property owners with both alternatives,
some of which can not be mitigated easily or at all, ie. loss of parking and loss
of a very large tree. However, most of the impacts can be mitigated.
Landscaping can be restored in most cases and sometimes enhanced. Large trees
will be replaced with a greater number of smaller trees. Property owners will
be compensated, for property value damages as a part of the right-of-way
acquisition process. The project costs will include impact mitigation,
restoration of landscaping, and damages to property values.
There will be benefits to the property owners and the neighborhood as well. The
addition of sidewalks, new curb and gutter, and new driveways will improve the
look of the front of many of the properties. In several cases the existing trees
' and landscaping have overgrown the existing sidewalks and need to be re -
landscaped. The sidewalks and bike lanes will also serve the area residents and
businesses. Many of the residents are CSU or Bennett Elementary students who
ride their bikes or walk to school. The businesses will also benefit since many
customers either walk or bike.
MITIGATION PROCESS:
A landscape architect has been hired to work with the property owners and the
PSNA to prepare a streetscape concept that will help add some continuity to the
streetscape and enhance the neighborhood identity.
Once the streetscape concept is selected the landscape architect will meet with
the property owners individually to listen to their concerns and determine the
impacts to their property. The architect will then work with the property owner
and the City to prepare a plan which mitigates the impacts and meets the
streetscape concept as well.
Once the plan is accepted by the property owner and the City, the right-of-way
negotiator meets with the property owner to present the City's offer for the
necessary right-of-way. The offer is based on just compensation for the land
being acquired and the property value damages as determined by a certified
appraiser.

FINANCING ALTERNATIVES:
Based on a review of other completed capital project budgets and discussion with
the Finance Department, staff has identified the following possible sources of
additional funds for this project:
AVAILABLE RECOMMENDED
Choices 95 - Additional Revenue $500,000 $348,000
This amount represents the amount of
additional revenue anticipated due to interest
income and increase in sales taxes collected
between now and the end of 1994 and project
savings.
114 Cent Necessary Capital $ 84,000 $ 84,000
This amount represents project savings and
interest income in the 114 Cent Necessary
Capital Improvement Program over the past
several years.
General City Capital $ 71,000 $0
This amount represents project savings and
interest income over the past several years.
Colorado State University Contribution '
$ 25,000 $ 25,000
TOTALS ________=====___
$655,000 $457,000
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends that the P&Z alternative, alternative 2 (bike lanes on the
street and the 84' maximum right-of-way width) be selected, North Drive be
reconstructed to align with Plum Street, and the additional $457,000 be
appropriated to the project as a part of the 1994 budget process and that the
funds come from $84,000 in savings on completed 114 Cent Necessary Capital
projects, $348,000 in additional Choices 95 revenues, and $25,000 from Colorado
State University.
Staff's recommendation for the P&Z alternative is based upon the need to meet the
Transportation Policies and provide a long range solution to a long term problem.
This project is being designed to meet the community's needs for the next 20
years. The P&Z alternative will provide bike lanes on the street, sidewalks, and
the right turn lanes, while being sensitive to the neighborhood. This
alternative meets the Transportation Plan Policies by promoting bicycling and
walking as alternative modes of transportation; by providing safe facilities
consistent with City Standards; and will improve the level of service for
motorists to Level of Service D or better. '

' January 5, 1993
Costs to the project will include: adding on street bike lanes; sidewalks with
splash strips; right turn lanes; restoration of landscaping; and right-of-way
acquisition. The right-of-way costs will include land acquisition, compensation
for damages to property values and/or costs for mitigating impacts to the
property owners."

Ordinance No. 3, 1993
Granting an Exemption to Summit Biotechnology, Inc.,
from the Payment of Certain Development and Utility
Fees and Making Appropriations From Prior Year Reserves
in the General Fund into Various Funds of the City in
the Amount of the Fees Exempted, Adopted Option 2.
The following is staff's memorandum on this item
"FINANCIAL IMPACT
Under the proposed Ordinance, and pursuant to Ordinance No. 44, 1990, which
established the City's Economic Incentive Program, the fees to be exempted would
be reimbursed to the appropriate General, Street Oversizing and Utility Funds
from City property, sales and use taxes generated over time by Summit
Biotechnology, Inc. This Ordinance would enable the City Council to waive
certain fees and appropriate funds from prior year reserves to reimburse the fees
' thus waived.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The proposed Ordinance. provides for the waiver of certain fees by the Council in
recognition of the positive economic impact Summit Biotechnology will have on the
economic and job base of the City. This determination is based on the fact that
the company is a basic industry that will. provide upward to 60 new scientific,
technical and support jobs over a three year period.
The fact that Summit Biotechnology is a "targeted" basic industry as specified
in the Economic Incentive Program, and meets many of the criteria indicated in
the Program, justifies, in staff's opinion, Council authorization of the waiver
of the development and utility fees referenced below.
Option 1 would appropriate an amount not to exceed $91,000 from prior year
reserves to reimburse the appropriate City funds in accordance with the following
schedule:

BACKGROUND:
Recently, the City has been working -with Fort Collins Incorporated pursuant to
the City's Economic Development Policy (Resolution 91-15), to assist in the
development of a new enterprise which is an expansion of Summit Biotechnology's
Greeley, Colorado operation.
The enterprise would be located in a new 25,000 square foot building, on a three -
acre parcel at the Center for Advanced Technology, which is adjacent to Colorado
State University. The company's focus on biotechnology, proximity to CSU's
molecular and biological research facilities will provide support for the further
development of Summit's product, as well as co -ventures with CSU.
Summit Biotechnology, a division of Monfort, Inc. (ConAgra) was founded in 1989
to develop the blood collection and raw serum processing procedures for the
corporation (Monfort/ConAgra). Specialist biotechnology companies such as Summit
Biotechnology have found that cells grown in culture are important for research,
and the production of new vaccines, drugs, and diagnostics. Summit Biotechnology
has identified a key market niche in the supply of nutrient materials and related
products and services to support and assist in the growth of cell cultures. '
341
' January 5, 1993
Having surveyed the marketplace, Summit Biotechnology has decided to take the
next step in the development of its business by moving into the finished product
and retail market. It is this focus on the refinement of sera culture for direct
sale which will guide the growth and development of Summit Biotechnology at the
Center for Advanced Technology (see description Summit's plan of action).
Analysis
Summit Biotechnology proposes to construct a 25,000 square foot facility on a
three -acre segment of a larger five -acre parcel within the Center for Advanced
Technology. The construction, including the cost of the land, is valued at $1.7
million. The company will relocate approximately $1.3 million in equipment from
its Greeley operation.
Summit plans to make further capital equipment acquisitions of approximately $1
million over the next five years.
Summit is expected to employ 30 FTE's initially, and 10 part-time. The annual
payroll is expected to be approximately $960,000. Starting compensation for all
employees is not less than $8.97 per hour, and the average wage for most
employees will exceed $13 per hour.
Based upon the information provided by Summit Biotechnology, staff estimates that
a total fee waiver of $90,155 would be recovered over a period of five years as
follows:
One time Use Tax from Building Permit $23,000
Annual Property Taxes (real & personal) $ 9,000
Annual Use Taxes $ 8,300
In the first year $23,000 will be recovered, and the remaining $67,155 will be
recovered over a period of five years through dedicated property and use taxes.
It is estimated that another $1,900 per year would be gained from payment in lieu
of taxes from utility consumption by Summit.
Waiver Options:
While Council may consider a complete fee waiver for Summit facility, staff
believes that the volatility of corporate decision -making concerning expansion,
relocation and consolidation warrants consideration of a broader range of
options. The "options" involve waiving less than the total, thereby reducing the
"payback" period.
Option 1. A complete waiver of the estimated $91,000 in development and utility
fees would require roughly five years of sales, use and property tax collections
' from Summit Biotechnology to offset the fee waiver.
342
January 5, 1993
Option 2. A partial waiver of approximately $72,000 of the total estimate of
S91,000 would require roughly three years to offset the waiver.
Option 3. A separate ordinance has been attached for each of the above options.
Additional options further reducing the total amount of fees waived and length
of the payback period may be considered. There is also the option of not waiving
any fees at this time.
Staff Recommendation: Staff believes it important to encourage high quality
firms such as Summit Biotechnology to locate within the City and maximize
available resources such as CSU. Staff further believes that Summit will
generate the types of job opportunities which complement the skills and
educational background of many Fort Collins residents. Staff is however
concerned that payback, or offsetting of any waiver, occur in a timely manner.
Recent announcements from the private sector here in Fort Collins support the
view that the destiny of many firms is more unpredictable beyond a two or three
year period.
For this reason staff recommends limiti
Summary:
the fee waiver to approximately
Staff recommends that Council adopt Option 2 of this Ordinance waiving
approximately $72,000 in development and utility fees pursuant to the City's
adopted Economic Incentive Policy. An analysis of the ramifications of a waiver
of fees in light of the recent voter approval of Amendment I is attached, as is
background information on Summit Biotechnology.
Note: The, building site is located within City of Fort Collins Special
Improvement District #90. Staff has been informed that the sales contract for
the site provides that Summit pay for three acres of land, plus the outstanding
special assessment on the remaining two acres. In turn, the owner, Everitt
Companies, will pay off the entire $67,000 assessment on the five -acre parcel.
Payments on this assessment are current and would be payable regardless of the
sales transaction between Everitt and Summit Biotechnology."
Councilmember Maxey made a motion, seconded by Councilmember Edwards, to adopt
Ordinance No. 3, 1993 Option 2 on First Reading.
Director of Community Affairs Frank Bruno gave a brief presentation on this item
and explained the waiver package.

on the site location and gave a slide presentation demonstrating Summit's
operations.
Councilmember Maxey questioned how the materials were transported.
Mr. Denbeste stated that most products are perishable and the majority of the
shipments are shipped by airfreight or refrigerated trucks. He clarified that
there was little or no wastes to dispose of.
Wendell Leinweber, Vice President of Summit Biotechnology, clarified the
reduction of costs would provide an incentive for the company to locate in Fort
Collins.
Mayor Kirkpatrick questioned the financial impact and Amendment #1 implications.
Finance Director Alan Krcmarik spoke of Amendment #1 implications stating the
waiver may have a revenue effect on the City, but believed Council should make
' its decision based on merits rather than on Amendment #1 concerns.
Kathleen Byington, President of CSU Research Foundation (CSURF), residing at 1625
Waterford Lane, urged Council to support the motion.
Bruce 'Lockhart, 2500 E. Harmony Road, spoke in opposition to the fee waiver.
Councilmember Kneeland supported the motion stating she did not believe there
would be an environmental impact.

Making Findings of Fact and
Conclusions Regarding an Appeal
From a Decision of the Planning and
Zoning Board Relating to the Marine
Sports Nest and Harris Machine PUD, Adopted.
The following is staff's memorandum on this item.
"EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
On November 16, 1992 the Planning and Zoning Board voted 4-2 to approve the
Marine Sports West and Harris Machine PUD- Preliminary and Final. On November
19, 1992 an appeal of the final decision was made by John J. Haggerty.
On December 15, 1992, Council voted 4-2 to overturn the decision of the Planning
and Zoning Board. In order to complete the record regarding this appeal, the
Council should adopt a Resolution making findings of fact and finalizing its
decision on the appeal.
BACKGROUND:
The appellant's notice of appeal was based on allegations that: '
1. The Planning and Zoning Board abused its discretion in making an arbitrary
decision without the support of competent evidence in the record.
2. The Planning and Zoning Board failed to properly interpret and apply
relevant provisions of the Code and Charter.
At the December 15, 1992 hearing on this matter, Council considered the testimony
of City staff, the appellant, and the applicants of the Marine Sports West and
Harris Machine PUD. In subsequent discussion at this hearing, Council determined
that the Planning and Zoning Board did not abuse its discretion in making an
arbitrary decision, but that the Board failed to properly interpret and apply the
relevant provisions of the Code and Charter; and determined to overturn the
decision of the Board."
Councilmember Kneeland withdrew from discussion on this item due to a perceived
conflict of interest.
Councilmember Horak made a motion, seconded by Councilmember Edwards, to adopt
