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. If the presiding officer determines that the number of items pulled from the Consent Calendar by citizens is substantial and may impair the Council’s ability to complete the planned agenda, the presiding officer may declare that the following process will be used to simplify consideration of the Citizen-Pulled Consent Items: (1) All citizen-pulled items (to be listed by number) will be considered as a group under the heading “Consideration of Citizen-Pulled Consent Items.” (2) At that time, each citizen wishing to speak will be given a single chance to speak about any and all of the items that have been moved to that part of the agenda. (3) After the citizen comments, any Councilmember may specify items from the list of Citizen-Pulled Consent Items for Council to discuss and vote on individually. Excluding those specified items, Council will then adopt all “Citizen-Pulled Consent Items” as a block, by a single motion, second and vote. (4) Any Citizen-Pulled Consent Items that a Councilmember has asked to be considered individually will then be considered using the regular process for considering discussion items. 1.

Second Reading of Ordinance No. 163, 2020, Approving the First Amendment to Ground Lease Agreement Between the Cities of Loveland and Fort Collins and Discovery Air, LLC, for Property at the Northern Colorado Regional Airport. This Ordinance, unanimously adopted on First Reading on December 15, 2020, adopts an amendment to the long-term aviation land lease agreement between the Cities of Fort Collins and Loveland (Cities) and Discovery Air, LLC signed in January of 2019. The lease terms included a (50) year lease for a large-scale aviation development project. The project has progressed since the execution of the original lease, and Discovery Air has obtained the necessary development approvals to continue pursuit of their development. Discovery Air has since determined it necessary to pursue a phased approach to its development and accordingly has requested that the Cities amend the original Lease. Due to the complexity and unique provisions of the original lease and this proposed amendment, the Northern Colorado Regional Airport Commission does not have the authority to approve and sign the Lease Amendment. The two Cities must each approve in accordance with their respective Municipal Codes and Charters. The Northern Colorado Regional Airport Commission reviewed the lease agreement amendment at its November 12, 2020, meeting, and unanimously recommended approval by the Councils. The proposed Airport development includes the construction of corporate aircraft hangar facilities and associated office space, a potential aircraft support center, a restaurant, and all infrastructure to support these facilities. This lease amendment will allow success of the public-private partnership. The Airport has approximately 200 acres of space available for aeronautical development. This proposal will use approximately 10% of the available land for what is considered to be the highest and best use of the property, which is in accordance with the Council adopted Airport Master Plan and Airport Commission Adopted Strategic Plan. The Airport will create revenues through lease payments from the property in addition to other revenues from the operations of the campus. The new buildings will create jobs and enhance the regional economic impact of the Airport. 5.
