considered separately.

Consent Calendar
The Consent Calendar is intended to allow the City Council to spend its time and energy on the important
items on a lengthy agenda. Staff recommends approval of the Consent Calendar. Anyone may request
an item on this calendar to be "pulled" off the Consent Calendar and considered separately. Agenda
items pulled from the Consent Calendar will be considered separately under Pulled Consent Items. Items
remaining on the Consent Calendar will be approved by City Council with one vote. The Consent
Calendar consists of:
● Ordinances on First Reading that are routine;
● Ordinances on Second Reading that are routine;
● Those of no perceived controversy;
● Routine administrative actions.
1. Second Reading of Ordinance No. 036, 2019, Reappropriating Funds Previously Appropriated in 2018
But Not Expended and Not Encumbered in 2018.
This Ordinance, unanimously adopted on First Reading on March 5, 2019, reappropriates monies in
2019 that were previously authorized by City Council for various expenditures in 2018 for various
purposes. The authorized expenditures were not spent or could not be encumbered in 2018 because:
there was not sufficient time to complete bidding in 2018 and therefore, there was no known
vendor or binding contract as required to expend or encumber the monies,
the project for which the dollars were originally appropriated by Council could not be completed
during 2018 and reappropriation of those dollars is necessary for completion of the project in 2019,
or
to carry on programs, services, and facility improvements in 2019 with unspent dollars previously
appropriated in 2018
In the above circumstances, the unexpended and/or unencumbered monies lapsed into individual fund
balances at the end of 2018 and reflect no change in Council policies.
2. Second Reading of Ordinance No. 037, 2019, Making Amendments to the Land Use Code Planned
Unit Development Regulations.
This Ordinance, unanimously adopted on First Reading on March 5, 2019, amends the Land Use Code
Planned Unit Development (PUD) regulations to clarify the vested rights process and who is eligible
to seek an amendment to an approved PUD Master Plan.
3. Second Reading of Ordinance No, 038, 2019, Authorizing the Mayor to Execute the First Amendment
to the Intergovernmental Agreement for Water Treatment Service Capacity Between the City of Fort
Collins, Colorado, and the Fort Collins-Loveland Water District.
This Ordinance, unanimously adopted on First Reading on March 5, 2019, amends the existing
agreement signed in 2013 between the City and the Fort Collins–Loveland Water District (FCLWD)
concerning FCLWD’s acquisition of 5 million gallons per day of water treatment capacity at the City’s
Water Treatment Facility. The proposed amendment to the 2013 Agreement will allow for FCLWD to
make an early payment of the entire outstanding principal associated with the financing of the Plant
Investment Fee.
The City, FCLWD, and their respective enterprises were all parties to the 2013 Agreement. The
amendment thus likewise must be approved by both City Council and the City of Fort Collins Water
Utility Enterprise Board. The FCLWD Board and the FCLWD Enterprise Board approved the proposed
amendment on Tuesday, February 19, 2019.

4. Second Reading of Ordinance No. 039, 2019, Authorizing the Sale of Seven Water Taps and One
Sewer Tap Owned by the City's Natural Areas Department.
This Ordinance, unanimously adopted on First Reading on March 5, 2019, authorizes the sale of seven
water taps and one sewer tap. The taps were acquired with various parcels purchased by the City’s
Natural Areas Department over the last decade or so. The Department has no use for the taps and
recommends selling them and using the proceeds for land conservation. Additionally, the taps have
monthly fees costing the Department approximately $1,425 per year. The Department checked with
the Affordable Housing Land Bank to ascertain its interest prior to placing the taps on the market. The
Affordable Housing Land Bank does not have a use for the taps at this time.
5. First Reading of Ordinance No. 046, 2019, Appropriating Unanticipated Grant Revenue in the Light
and Power Fund from Bloomberg Philanthropies for Capitalization of the EPIC Efficiency Loan
Program.
The purpose of this item is to appropriate $100,000 in grant award revenues from Bloomberg
Philanthropies, as part of the Bloomberg Mayor’s Challenge, into the Fort Collins Utilities Light and
Power fund for the purposes of continued capitalization of the EPIC Loan program.
6. Public Hearing and First Reading of Ordinance No. 047, 2019, Amending Chapter 9 of the Code of
the City of Fort Collins and Adopting by Reference the 2018 International Fire Code, with
Amendments.
The purpose of this item is to adopt the 2018 International Fire Code (“IFC”), as amended. The
International Code Council (“ICC”) publishes updated codes every three years. The Poudre Fire
Authority Board of Directors has reviewed and approved the IFC and is requesting it be adopted as
amended. Poudre Fire Authority (“PFA”) is responsible for the enforcement and administration of the
IFC within the City. PFA routinely reviews new codes, proposes local amendments, and seeks
adoption of the IFC changes by the City Council. The proposed amendments, developed in
conjunction with the local Fire Code Review Committee, include several changes to the City Code.
There were a few significant changes to the IFC, including provisions related to mobile food vendors,
higher education laboratories, plant material processing and extraction (cannabis), mobile fueling
service, energy systems and the retroactive installation of fire suppression systems in eating and
drinking establishments with an occupant load in excess of 299. A proposed City Code amendment
mandates at least one means of egress (stairs) be provided in buildings under construction that exceed
one story in height.
7. Items Relating to the Affordable Housing Board and the Community Development Block Grant
Commission.

B. First Reading of Ordinance No. 049, 2019, Amending Chapter 2, Article III, Division 2 of the Code
of the City of Fort Collins Regarding the Affordable Housing Board.
The purpose of this item is to amend the Code of the City of Fort Collins to update the authorized
duties, functions and name of the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Commission, as well
as the membership requirements and authorized duties and functions of the Affordable Housing Board.
These Code updates will specifically address the advisory roles of the CDBG Commission and
Affordable Housing Board to include City staff and other entities. Additionally, the CDBG Commission
would be renamed to the Social Investment Commission, and its authority to make funding
recommendations would be modernized to include the diverse funding sources within its grant making
purview. The Affordable Housing Board’s membership requirements would be amended to express a
preference for having at least one member who lives or has lived in affordable housing.

8. First Reading of Ordinance No. 050, 2019, Authorizing an Annual Water Allotment Management
Program by Amending Section 26-129 of the Code of the City of Fort Collins to Authorize the Utilities
Executive Director to Waive All or Part of the Excess Water Use Surcharge for Certain Qualifying
Customers in Limited Circumstances.
The purpose of this item is to consider an Ordinance that gives discretion to the Utilities Executive
Director to provide qualified customers a temporary waiver from Excess Water Use (EWU) surcharges
for up to three years, provided the customer participates in the proposed Allotment Management
Program (AMP) to implement a project that permanently reduces the customer’s water use by
managing landscape water use to an existing allotment. The Ordinance and supporting program create
a solution for a specific group of customers that were highly impacted by changes to the Water Supply
Requirements (formally Raw Water Requirements) adopted in September 2017 and implemented in
2018.
9. First Reading of Ordinance No. 051, 2019, Amending Section 8-161 of the Code of the City of Fort
Collins to Add an Exception to the Competitive Purchasing Process for Purchases of Video Content
Licensing.
The purpose of this item is to amend City Code to create a limited exception to the competitive bid and
purchasing process for the purchase of video content licensing and services, as needed for delivery
of video services by Fort Collins Connexion. To provide video services, Fort Collins Connexion must
secure license agreements with local channels, national networks, and independent content
producers. While most video content will be acquired through membership in the National Cable
Television Cooperative (NCTC), there are some channels, groups of channels, and networks that will
require direct individual license negotiations.
10. First Reading of Ordinance No. 052, 2019, Amending Article I of Chapter 6 of the Code of the City of
Fort Collins Regarding Cable Communications Systems.
The purpose of this item is to amend the City Code provisions related to cable television franchises,
which have not been modified since they were first adopted in 1978, to update them and make them
consistent with the current language of the City Charter and applicable federal law.
11. Items Relating to Platte River Power Authority Organic and Power Supply Contracts.
A. First Reading of Ordinance No. 053, 2019, Authorizing an Amended and Restated Organic
Contract with Platte River Power Authority.
B. First Reading of Ordinance No. 054, 2019, Authorizing an Amended and Restated Contract with
Platte River Power Authority for the Supply of Electric Power and Energy.

(Platte River) to extend and amend the Organic Contract between Fort Collins, Loveland, Longmont,
and Estes Park (the member cities); and the Power Supply Agreement between Fort Collins and Platte
River
12. First Reading of Ordinance No. 055, 2019, Authorizing the Conveyance of an Easement to Larimer
County for Groundwater Monitoring Wells on Cathy Fromme Prairie Natural Area.
The purpose of this item is to authorize conveyance of an easement to Larimer County for groundwater
monitoring wells on Cathy Fromme Prairie Natural Area. In August 2018, the Natural Areas
Department was approached by Larimer County Solid Waste at the direction of the Colorado
Department of Public Health and Environment (CDPHE) regarding a 1,4-dioxane plume. The County
requested a revocable permit from the Department to insert temporary groundwater test wells to
determine the location and extent of the plume, which the City Manager granted on February 5, 2019.
The new permanent monitoring wells are required for continued monitoring of the contaminant plume.

This item is a quasi-judicial matter and if considered on the discussion agenda, it will be considered in
accordance with the procedures described in Section 1(e) of the Council’s Rules of Meeting
Procedures adopted in Resolution 2018-034.
The purpose of this item is to consider the request for landmark designation of the Newman Property,
1019 West Mountain Avenue, for its early twentieth-century vernacular architecture. This is a voluntary
designation at the property owner’s request. The Landmark Preservation Commission unanimously
recommends approving this landmark designation.
14. Resolution 2019-035 Authorizing the City Manager to Execute an Intergovernmental Agreement
Between the City and Poudre School District for the Nature in the City Program.
The purpose of this item is to authorize the City of Fort Collins Nature in the City Program to enter into
an intergovernmental agreement with the Poudre School District. The Agreement sets the terms by
which Poudre School District and The City of Fort Collins Nature in the City Program will collaborate
to build outdoor educational program spaces, called Learning Habitats, at District schools. These
Learning Habitats will provide engaging outdoor features that connect students to nature, create
functional micro-habitat for local wildlife, increase academic achievement, and drive community
engagement.
15. Resolution 2019-036 Naming the Poudre River Whitewater Park Pedestrian Bridge in Honor of the
Graham Family.
The purpose of this item is to approve a proposed donor recognition concept for the pedestrian bridge
at the Poudre River Whitewater Park. Jack and Ginger Graham have provided a generous donation in
the amount of $1 million toward the construction of the pedestrian bridge, which more than covers the
cost of the $700,000 bridge that is part of the Project. The Grahams have requested the pedestrian
bridge be named the “Graham Family Bridge” in order to honor their family.

for Any Form of Conveyance.
Ordinance No. 028, 2019, adopted on First Reading on February 19, 2019 by a vote of 6-1 (nays:
Summers) amends City Code relating to the regulation of electric scooters and other shared and/or
portable mobility devices. Ordinance No. 029, 2019, unanimously adopted on First Reading on
February 19, 2019, amends Traffic Code to allow for signage designating areas of the city as a
dismount zone for all forms of conveyance, including e-scooters.
When discussing this item on March 5, Councilmembers requested that staff forward an amendment
to City Traffic Code to require operators of shared mobility devices including e-scooters to dismount
their conveyances at crosswalks regardless of whether there is a traffic control device requiring them
to do so, which is the only situation under which an operator must dismount under current City Traffic
Code.
To make this amendment, Council will need to move to amend Ordinance No. 029, 2019, to add the
following to the end of Section 3:
“A person riding a shared mobility device or toy vehicle shall dismount before entering any crosswalk.”

Code Relating to Electrical Assisted Bicycles.
City of Fort Collins Page 8
The purpose of this item is to present two Ordinances for Council consideration to implement a one-
year pilot period to allow Class 1 and Class 2 electrical assisted bicycles (“e-bikes”) on City paved
trails. In response to the growing popularity of e-bikes across the country, and the benefits e-bikes
can provide to individuals and communities in terms of health, mobility, and environmental
sustainability, staff recommends adoption of Ordinances allowing the use of Class 1 and Class 2 e-
bikes on paved trails through a one-year pilot program. E-bikes are allowed on paved trails in most
Colorado communities, including neighboring jurisdictions of Larimer County, Boulder County,
Loveland, Longmont and Boulder. Eight Fort Collins City boards and commissions have voted in favor
of a pilot program to allow e-bikes on paved trails in Fort Collins. In addition to the two Ordinances

residential wood fires. Code changes proposed include decriminalization, a curfew and a property line
setback for outdoor wood burning. Between First and Second Reading, staff reviewed and revised the
wording of the new Code language and clarifying changes are noted in the Ordinance. Additionally,
resources in the form of an 0.25 FTE increase, are being requested to support education, outreach
and compliance with the Code.
19. Resolution 2019-034 Establishing an Ad Hoc Committee Known as the Direct Reports Compensation
