PROGRAM THROUGH CULTURAL SERVICES
A.The City was awarded $30,000 from the Bohemian Foundation to
underwrite live music as an aspect of the Cultural Community Program (the “Program”)
which works to equitably integrate arts and culture into the Fort Collins community,
especially in locations not typically programmed and beyond conventional cultural
facilities.
B.The Program is part of the City’s Cultural Services Department,and since
2022,both staff wages and programming have been supported by funding from American
Rescue Plan Act (ARPA)dollars.
C.The Program is committed to equitable opportunities for artists to reach and
engage with diverse and often underserved community segments.The Program
integrates art and culture across the community via pop-up performances,community co
creation,and supporting community initiatives by hiring local creatives to augment
planned events.
D.This appropriation benefits the public health and welfare of the citizens and
serves the public purpose of contributing to the vibrancy of Fort Collins and making live
music fun and accessible for all.
E.Article V,Section 9 of the City Charter permits the City Council,upon the
recommendation of the City Manager,to make supplemental appropriations by ordinance
at any time during the fiscal year from such revenues and funds for expenditure as may
be available from reserves accumulated in prior years,notwithstanding that such reserves
were not previously appropriated.
F.The City Manager has recommended the appropriation described herein
and determined that this appropriation is available and previously unappropriated from
the Cultural Services and Facilities Fund and will not cause the total amount appropriated
in the Cultural Services and Facilities Fund to exceed the current estimate of actual and
anticipated revenues and all other funds to be received in this Fund during this fiscal year.
G.Article V,Section 11 of the City Charter authorizes the City Council to
designate in the ordinance when appropriating funds for a federal,state or private grant
or donation,that such appropriation shall not lapse at the end of the fiscal year in which
the appropriation is made,but continue until the earlier of the expiration of the federal,
state or private grant or donation or the City’s expenditure of all funds received from such
grant or donation.
H.The City Council wishes to designate the appropriation herein for Bohemian
Foundation to underwrite live music donation as an appropriation that shall not lapse until
the earlier of the expiration of the grant or donation or the City’s expenditure of all funds
received from such grant or donation.
The City Council previously made these appropriations in Ordinance No.
077,2024 (“Ordinance No.077”)adopted at final reading on June 18,2024,but
Ordinance No.075 was not published after such adoption as required by Section 7 in City
Charter Article II.
J.It is therefore necessary that the City Council adopt this Ordinance No.090,
2024,to both repeal Ordinance No.077 and to authorize and approve these
appropriations again.
K.The City has not expended any of the appropriations approved in Ordinance
No.077.
In light of the foregoing recitals,which the Council hereby makes and adopts as
determinations and findings,BE IT ORDAINED BY THE COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
FORT COLLINS as follows:
Section 1.There is hereby appropriated from new philanthropic revenue in the
Cultural Services and Facilities Fund the sum of THIRTY THOUSAND DOLLARS
($30,000)to be expended in the Cultural Services and Facilities Fund for the Bohemian
Foundation to underwrite live music.
Section 2 The appropriation herein for the Cultural Community Program is
hereby designated,as authorized in Article V,Section 11 of the City Charter,as an

from such grant or donation.
