The Honorable Mayor,
City Council and City Manager
of the City of Fort Collins
Fort Collins, Colorado 89521
Gentlemen:
The Associated Building Contractors, as you are
probably aware, is an association composed of all seg:ents
of the building industry, including contractors, sub-
contractors, suppliers, lending agencies, and engineers.
They are all interested not.only in their own business, but
in the development of Fort Collins.
The costs of development and housing *during the past few
years have escalated tremendously, and this fact, together
with increased interest rates, have made it very difficult for
the average person to purchase and own a home. A portion of
this escalation in costs comes from rules. and regulations
adopted by the City.
The building industries recognize the need for regulations,
but feel that many of them are adopted or changed without
consideration as to their effect on the development of the
community as a whole
There is a great deal of experience In the bl 1lUiIiC 1.^.CL S y
represented in our Association, and we would like to or000se that
the City make use of this e)-:perience, together with the kno`Aledge
. .
acauired.t-iroughout the _years by these contractors.
I
i
At a recent meeting of the Association., the following Resolution
was passed:
"The Associated Building Contractors hereby wish to bring
to your attention the willingness on the part of this
Association to participate in helping the City of Fort
Collins in formulating rules, regulations and procedures, or
any anticipated changes in rules, regulations or procedures,
governing the building industry and land development.
We feel that within our Association are some of the most
knowledgeable.and experienced people in the Fort Collins
area, concerning these industries. Inasmuch as these
industries are also the source of livelihood for most of its
members and also contributes tremendously to the welfare of
the City and Community as a whole, we would like to actively
participate in the governing of the industries. We would
appreciate the opportunity to analyze and make suggestions
on any anticipated chances or adoption of new rules, prior
to their final adoption. We feel that we can contribute
measurably to the maintaining and furthering of a smoother
operating industry and thereby contribute to a better City
as well. as better housing for the people. "
It is felt that more cooperation between the Associated
Building Contractors and the officials of the City can contribute
to the future development of Fort Collins, the establishment of
a more equitable tax base, and a more desirable environment for
the homeowners and industries.
We have established a committee composed of Alvin :hiller,
Chairman, Gary Haxton, Roger Bennett, Wayne Ireland, Phil Riddell
and Avery Fentner, for the purpose of having meetings with tie
'City Manager and representatives of the City Council. We request
your cooperation in establishing this liaison between ourselves
and the City government.
Very truly yours,
