Ordinance adopted on second reading creating Storm
Sewer Improvement District No. 16
City Attorney March stated he would call the letter from Mr. Alden Hill to
their attention, relating to the feeling of the Hospital District that they
can handle their own storm waters without use of the facilities the City is
talking about constructing and apparently the City does not disagree with
that but the City would require them to prove that; this item has not been
resolved. Further, if the Hospital District did make such provisions it
might possibly through that portion of the cost that would be paid for by the
Hospital District lands into the general City obligations rather than the
putting it on the other property holders. This will be accomplished at the
time of assessment.

Parkwood Meadows PUD Site Plan amendment approved
Planning Associate, Paul Deibel, identified the area as follows:
Parkwood Meadows Planned Unit Development is located on the southeast corner
of Lemay Avenue and Parkwood Drive. I -Then the subdivision was initially ap-
proved, Heatherwood Lane, a private road, went through from Lemay Avenue to
Parkwood Drive. In 1972 an amendment to this site plan, eliminating a portion
of Heatherwood Lane, was approved administratively by the Planning Staff as
it felt it was acting within the framework of administrative discretion on
minor revisions to subdivision plats and site plans. However, when the
attorney for the buyer conducted a title search, he felt that this became a
restriction on obtaining clear title.
The Planning f, Zoning Board had recommended approval.

Action program for Avery House
+ Restoration approved
The recommendation is as follows:
1. It is recommended that Alternative 6'5 - Ful Public use and City
Administrative site - be adopted and implemented.
(An analysis of Alternatives N1 thru N4 may be found in Appendix H.)
2. The rationale for- selectintl Alternativei5
'-It provides for a step by step (phase) imp`cmentation of the
program based on data development, studies and conditions of
" the times.
-It provides for reassessment of positions 'n each step or phase
for purposes of alteration of direction or efforts - if necessary.
-It provides "on the site" management - a vital aspect of historic
preservation.
3. What Alternative R5 does
()) It suggests.use of some part of the house as a City Adminis-
trativc site - an office of the Avery (louse Program Coordin-
ator. Somew alterations, largely decorative, clean-up and
adjustrent for office space would be necessary.
(2) It suggl'.sts:
-Full restoration of the downstairs.
-Full restoration of the exterior and grounds.
-sizeable capital investments in restoration activities.
(3) It suggests "on -the -ground management". The program for
Avery House, to be effective, will require a strong sense
of, dedication on the part of the individual who is responsible.
It.'will require a substantial amount of individual effort
over and beyond line responsibilities.
(4) it suggests uses of the buildi,ing in line with the final rec-
rnnmefid'a ions of the committee - including group meetings, a
a focal point for the City's historic preservation, and a
center for certain convunity activities.
(5) It sudic_Isr bccause_of the high capital investments involved
in restoratio'n, maintaiance and costs of operation:
-Phnhc development and management.
rode. -pendent funding sources.
-Fuld public participation and involveaent.
-A :;Leung organizational arran;lcmeot to assure continuity
and performance.
-Use fees or charges for use of the facilities.
(G) It suggests an interim coordination and administration pro-
granr to start actions and to implement basic concepts - pending
formulation of a formal Boards and Commissions Administrative
concept.

Request from Colorado Building and Construction
Trades Council for prevailing wage clause denied
City Manager Robert Brunton stated there were members of the Council present.
He read at length the memorandum from the Assistant City Manager on this
subject.
Per your request, I am forwarding the data concerning the contractors the
City awarded work to in 1973 and 1974 (attached). Also included is the re-
sults of a telephone survey of practices in other Colorado cities (attached).
Review of the material reveals that only three of the twenty-five contractors
have a closed shop. Of the eight cities contacted, only Denver and Boulder
have a Prevailing Wage Law by city ordinance. Fort Collins as well as the
other six cities requires prevailing wages on all contracts involving federal
funds.
The City Manager then read from the following:
Earlier this year we received a request from Anthony Mulligan, the Business
Representative for the Colorado Building and Construction Trades Council,
requesting that a prevailing wage structure, to cover construction workers
having a contract with the City of Fort Collins, be adopted. The precipitating
reason for this request was the objection from Colorado Building and Construc-
tion Trades Council and the various other construction trades to the policy
of the City as related to labor and wage requirements, specifically under
the construction of Substation No. 400 for our Electric Utility. The com-
plaint was that the City owes it to the citizens of Fort Collins to do all
in its power to guarantee the possibility of receiving prevailing wage rates.
This matter was brought to the attention of the City Council at its August 13,
1974 meeting. At that time the matter was referred back to the Administration
for further study.
We are required by law to have a prevailing wage rate clause in our specifica-
tions where federal money, such as the new Fort Collins Community Swimming
Pool, the City sewer line between Sewage Treatment Plant No. 1 and Plant No. 2
and the expansion of Plant No. 2, is involved. Enclosed are a number of memos
and analyses on the subject of prevailing wage clauses in City bid specifica-
tions, including a random sample of various cities in the State and an
analysis of some of the previous bids on City projects, includin,' whether
they are an open or closed shop. On the basis of 10 projects in 1973 and 1974,
the total cost of the awarded bids was $615,450 versus an estimated bid of
$669,322 if the prevailing wage clause had been included, or an 8.8% increase.

We concur that everyone deserves to make a decent living wage; however, there
'are many people in Fort Collins that receive lower than the prevailing wage
scale. In.the final analysis this is a subjective question, based on philos-
ophy and economics, that falls into the realm of a policy decision. We do,
however, feel that the various people in the Construction Trades Council
deserve an answer.
Recommendation: The Administration recommends that the City Council review
this matter and then make a decision as to whether they would like a prevailing
wage clause adopted for the City of Fort Collins.
Mr. Mulligan of the Trades Council spoke in favor of Council's adopting a
y] City ordinance of prevailing wage rates.

Mr. Loren Maxey, 61S South Loomis, and Mr. David Neenan, 2013 Orchard Place,
spoke in opposition to such an ordinance.

request be denied. Yeas: Council members Bowling, Preble, Reeves, Russell, and

Recommendation on action on
House Bill 1041, Land Use
Bill approved
'City Manager Robert Brunton spoke to the following recommendation with one
change, changing the date to January 1, 1975.
At the last Council meeting (special meeting) a report was presented on the Land
Use Bill. A number of points were made relative to the Bill, these being:
1. That the City had to respond by November 13, 1974, stating what was being
done towards implementation of the'Bill. Enclosed is a letter and reporting
form dent out by the Land Use Commission for this purpose recently. The
letter indicates that as much of the form as possible should be completed by
the November 13 deadline, but that the complete form need not be filled out
because we may not have progressed sufficiently.
Most of the questions under Section II of the form would have to be answered as
as a result of further consideration of the question of areas of state interest
by the City Council. This leads to the second point of the previous discussion
with Council.
2. Art March has recommended that the various areas.of potential state interest.
be considered by the appropriate board or by staff, and that hearings be con-
ducted and recommendations returned to the Council soon so that the Council
could then conduct a hearing on the total question of the Land Use Bill and
the City's response to it.
' The areas and activities available under the Bill for designation are as follows:
'224
zap
A. ..Areas of state interest:
1) Mineral resource areas (includes sand and gravel)
2) Natural hazard areas (flood plains, expansive mils, wildfire, etc.)
3) Areas containing or impacting upon historic, natural or archaeological
resources (historic sites, shorelands of publicly owned reservoirs
and wildlife habitats)
4) Areas around key facilities (airports, public utility facilities,
highway interchanges, rapid or mass transit terminals)
B. Activities of state interest:
1) Water and sewer treatment systems
2) Solid waste disposal
3) Airports
4) Rapid or mass transit terminals
5) Arterial highways and interchanges and collector highways
6) Major facilities of public utilities
7) New communities
8) Utilization of municipal and industrial water projects
9) Nuclear detonations
Recommendation: In order to get data and information, the Administration
recommends that the agencies indicated hereafter conduct hearings and make
recommendations as to designation in the areas indicated:
Agent Area or Activity
Planning & 'Zoning Board A-1, A-2, A-4, B-5, B-6 '
Landmark Preservation Commission A-3
Water Board B-1, B-8
Areas not specifically assigned should be considered by the Council, but it is
felt that there will be no difficulty in deTt.onstrating that these are not appli-
cable (B-2, B-3, B-4, B-7, and B-9).
It is recommended that the studying agencies be instructed to complete the
hearings and make recommendations to the Council by January 1, 1975 , and
that the Council plan to complete its action during the month of January, 1975.
Councilman Bowling made a motion seconded by Councilman Russell to adopt
the recommendation of the Administration. Yeas: Council members Bowling,
Gray, Preble, Reeves, Russell, and Wilkinson. Nays: None.
Purchase of Coloradoan Building authorized
City Manager Robert Brunton spoke to the possible uses for the building by
the Parks and Recreation Department or the Police Department.
Gladys Eddy, speaking for the Parks and Recreation Board, spoke in favor
of using the building for the Parks and Recreation Department. ,
The consensus of the Council was to purchase the building now at a cost
of $185,000 and determine later the uses for the building.
