2. Mobile Home Park Enforcement Program. (staff: Caryn Champine, JC Ward, Emily Olivo; 10 minute
presentation; 45 minute discussion)
The Mobile Home Park (“MHP”) Residents’ Rights Team is currently developing a comprehensive
enforcement program for mobile home parks to improve livability in parks across Fort Collins, improve
the City’s relationship with MHP managers and owners, and increase manager and owner
accountability.
An education program with community clean-up days leading up to regular proactive Code Compliance
patrols would be implemented over the next three years, with a concentrated engagement effort in
2021 and 2022 that would enable staff to learn the full scope of the work, build relationships with
residents and management, and support MHP’s compliancy prior to any official inspection. In 2021,
we have already begun this engagement effort with senior (55+) MHP’s and have two grant-funded,
volunteer-based clean up and resource fair events planned in each senior MHP this fall. Other
engagement techniques planned include mock inspections and neighborhood walks with code
enforcement staff to answer questions and prepare managers.
The final MHP enforcement program is anticipated to include regular proactive patrols and
investigation of complaints, an annual inspection, annual park registration, and annual MHP property
manager certification. Priority enforcement focus areas will be periodically reviewed and updated to
ensure emerging and important issues are addressed.
3. Fort Collins Connexion Update. (staff: Colman Keane, Chad Crager; 10 minute presentation; 20
minute discussion)
The purpose of this item is to provide to Council and the public an overview and update of the
Connexion municipal fiber build-out.
