Said land is all of the land on ;ach side of a twenty -foot north/south public alley described as follows: Commencing at the NE corner of Lot 17, in Block 114 in the City of Fort Collins, Colorado, thence South 180 feet to the SE corner of said lot; thence East 20 feet to the West line of Lot 5 of said block; thence North along the West line of lots 5, 6, 7 and 8 of said block to the NW corner of said Lot 8; thence West 20 feet to the point of beginning. Your petitioner requests that t his alley be vacated as a public alley and road- way, except for such utility easements as may be constructed therein, since it is the inten- tion of the undersigned to develop both the East and the West sides of the property owned by it and the alleyway for the erection of a modern banking facility for the betterment of the community, which, among other things, will furnish additional access to the bank premises and additional off-street parking;. This al(pyway has, for all practical purposes, not been used by the public for many rs last past; was never surfaced or maintained except many years ago by abutting property ers. Respectfully submitted, THE POUDRE VALLEY NATIONAL BANK OF FORT COLLINS /s/ Robert M. Dunn, President The following communication was presented and read at length: 221 IRobert F. Boos, City Manager Attached is a request from Mr. Bill Stover, representing the Poudre Valley National Bank, that a portion of the alley in Block 114, Original Town, be vacated. The alley is not important to the City from the standpoint of traffic circulation Existing only as a dirt entranceway to the center of the block, the alh y serves only the applicant and Safeway Stores, who together own the entire block. A small house at 414 Maso is the only other structure in the block, and is owned by the bank with the previous owner hol ding a lifetime lease. There are a number of utilities located in the alley as shown on the sketch. Before the alley can be vacated, adequate provision in the form of an easement must be made with each of the utility companies, or arrangements be made to have the utilities relocated Again, however, the various lines in the alley, serve only the bank and Safeway, and it, is believed that the applicant will have no difficulty working out a satisfactory arrangement with each of the utility companies (City Water and Sewer Department, City Power and Light D partment, Mountain States Telephone Company and Public Service Company). Having provided for each of the utiliths, the department would see no objection to granting the vacation as requested. Below is a location sketch of the general area and the portion of ally under con- sideration. Isl C. Adam Fischer Director of Public Works. Motion was made by Councilman Bennett, seconded by Council woman Quinn, that this request be referred to the City Attorney to prepare the necessary ordinance. Roll was cal ed resulting as follows: Ayes: Councilmen Johnson, Carson, McMillan, Bennett and Council- woman Quinn. Nayes: None. The President declared the motion adopted. The following communication was presented and read at length: March 4, 1965 Mr. Robert F. Boos City Manager City of Fort Collins Fort Collins, Colorado Dear Sir: Being a member of the Breakfast Optimist Club and a Scoutmaster of one of our lace Boy Scout troops, I am baturally interested in youth work. Working in close contact with th kids lets you see some of their needs anditems that would tend to make outings and things of that nture more enjoyable. One of these would be some type of area fairly close to town so as not to be incor. venient for transportation and yet far enough away so that cay can say they have camped out. What I had in mind was a decent campsite that could be used by both boys and girls with futu Planning to include a shelter house and toilet facilities. Admitedly, the Boy Scouts have Camp Delatour but this is prohibitive for winter camping because of the distance and road conditions in inclement weather. The Girl Scouts have nothing other than the Scout House at City Park any closer than Allenspark, where Meadow Mountain ranch is located. The last time my daughter went on an overnight campout, they had to rent the shelter at Loveland Filter plant from the G.A.A. Association in Loveland. To sum all this up, I propose this: ask the City 0ouncil to donate the use of - city owned property in Poudre Canyon and I am certain the Breakfast Optimist Club will make necess ary improvements to be able to use it for a campsite or outing area. I have in mind two or'three area in Poudre Canyon - one above the filter plant about a quarter of a mile, and another up the North Fork, of the Poudre, east of the filter Plant, and lastly, the big curve area just inside the canyon mouth a quarter of a mile or so. Mr. Boos, please see what can be done in this area, for good clean recreation of this type is a sure way to keep the kids off the streets and out of the 3.2 places in the future. Sinderely, Isl Jack L. Miller Boy's Work Committee Chairman Breakfast Optimist Club The following report was presented and read at length: April 5, 1965 Po: The Honorable Mayor and City Council prom: R. F. Boos, City Manager >ubject: Attached Letterf rom Breakfast Optimist Club on March 29. 1965, Mr. Harold Lynch and Mr. Herb Alexander of the Clty Staff met th Mr. Jack Miller and Mr. Kent Anderson of the Optimist Club Project Committee. They ured several tracts of land owned by the City in Poudre Canyon. 222 Toe site selected as the one best suited to the Optimist Club's needs and the one what will be the easiest for the City to control is the south half of the island immediately across from the houses at the filter plant. This tract is approximately 112 acres in size. It is now used, along with several other tracts at the filter plant, during the summer months as picnic area by the general public. The Optimist Club would agree to build a shelter house (probably an A frame cabin) on this site. They would improve the site and maintain it. They would fence off the site to prevent vandalism to the cabin andother improvements. The cabin would be available to all organized ,youth groups on a reservation basis. The site would be closed to the general public. The Optimist Club would be willing to enter into an agreement with the City giving them use of the land for this purpose or they would be willing to lease the tract from the City. The Director of Public Works and the Water Plant Superintendent have reviewed this proposal and they agree that it would not disrupt the filter plant operation. The general public would no longer have this site available for picnic use. There would still be several other adequate picnit sites at t he filter plant for use by the general public. The City's insurance would cover any liability the City might have as a result of the project. However our insurance agent has informed us that both the City and the Opti- mist Club could both be held liable for any accidents occurring at the proposed cabin. He recommended that the Optimist Club be required to carry their own liability insurance if the City enters into an agreement with them on this project. F.

The following communication was presented and read at length: COUNCIL OF CO101ITNITY SERVICES Mr. Warren Wolaver, Chairman Larimer County Commissioner County Courthouse Fort Collins, Colorado Dear Mr. Wolaver: April 21, 1965 At a meeting of the Council of Community Services at Larry's Cafe on April 12th a discussion was held in regard to the Public Health Services for Larimer County. We are sure you are aware of the tremendous growth taking place in Larimer County and the increased services made necessary by this growth-. As Larimer County is one of the few large counties in the state still operating with a part time director it is our feeling that perhaps intelligent planning and county wide cooperation is needed to adequately meet the increasing need. We would like to suggest that all poss ble steps in conjunction with the Fort Collins City Council, the Loveland City Council, the Larimer County Medical Society, Poudre R-1 School Board, Thompson R2J School Board, Park R-3 School Board and other appropriate groups; be taken to improve and increase the public health servicew in Larimer County. We recognize that this is a large task, but we feel that it is an important one that will benefit all other county services. To this end the services of the Council of Community Services will be made available to you for whatever purposes you feel would be helpful. Sincerely, /s/ Joe Townsend Chairman This matter was accepted by the Council but no other action was taken.
