Fort Collins City Council
300 LaPorte Ave.
Fort Collins, CO 80521
Dear Mayor Troxell, Mayor Pro Tem Horak, and Council Members Overbeck,
Martinez, Campana, Stephens and Cunniff;
You are slated to consider Ordinance No. 046, 2016, which appropriates $475,993
for 2016 Projects Associated with the 2020 Climate Action Plan (CAP) Strategic
Plan. The Fort Collins Area Chamber of Commerce encourages you to vote
against this ordinance.
We are very concerned that this appropriation is being done outside the BFO
process and have had little community vetting. We are equally concerned that this
appropriation creates an ongoing commitment of $422,219 in city funds. The City
had "promised" that all projects related to CAP would have time for community
analysis and feedback and these recommendations are lacking in process.
We look forward to your "no" vote on this issue.
Sincerely,
Fort Collins Area Chamber of Commerce
David L. May
President & CEO
