2. Second Reading of Ordinance No. 011, Authorizing an Intergovernmental Agreement with the
Colorado Department of Transportation for the Lease of Fiber Optic Data Transport Capacity.
(Adopted on Second Reading)
This item is coming to the Electric Utility Enterprise Board due to its time-sensitive nature related to
network operation and continued business activities. Many aspects of Connexion’s network design
and buildout, already in progress, are dependent upon this nearly completed item.
This Ordinance, unanimously adopted on First Reading on April 21, 2020, approves a multi-year
Intergovernmental Agreement (IGA) between the City’s Electric Utility Enterprise and the Colorado
Department of Transportation (CDOT) for the purpose of leasing two dark fiber strands from Fort
Collins to Denver. CDOT was chosen to provide this service as it met all requirements at the lowest
price available. In addition, this IGA helps to meet requirements detailed in IGAs referenced in
Resolutions 2019-072 and 2019-073 (shared regional Broadband Transport and Access services with
the City of Loveland and Town of Estes Park) by providing such access between Fort Collins and
Denver.
Vice President Stephens noted this is the most affordable option and is a good partnership for the
City.
Vice President Stephens made a motion, seconded by Boardmember Cunniff, to adopt Ordinance
No. 011 on Second Reading.
RESULT: ORDINANCE NO. 011, ADOPTED ON SECOND READING [UNANIMOUS]
MOVER: Kristin Stephens, District 4
SECONDER: Ross Cunniff, District 5
AYES: Troxell, Cunniff, Stephens, Summers, Gutowsky, Pignataro, Gorgol
