Incorporated in 1873, the City has grown to become the commercial, educational and cultural hub of northern Colorado. The City adopted a home rule charter in 1954 and operates under a Council-Manager form of government. The 2012 City of Fort Collins Legislative Policy Agenda identifies issues of importance to the City of Fort Collins. The Agenda expresses policies and positions on issues that affect the quality of life and the governance of our community. We offer this Agenda to our Legislators as a guideline when considering legislation that impacts Fort Collins. We encourage Legislators to contact Fort Collins City Council Members and our Legislative Policy Manager should they have any questions regarding our policy positions. CITY OF FORT COLLINS LEGISLATIVE REVIEW COMMITTEE The Legislative Review Committee (LRC) is a representative group.of Council members that reviews and reacts to proposed legislation on behalf of City Council and the City. In taking a position on particular bills, the LRC interprets and applies the various policies that are included in the Legislative Policy Agenda. If a bill is governed by two or more competing policies, then the LRC may decide how to balance those policies in taking a position. If a bill falls outside of the Legislative Policy Agenda, the LRC refers the bill to the full Council for consideration before a position is taken on behalf of the City. Council Members presently serving on the Legislative Review Committee are: • Mayor Pro Tem Kelly Ohlson • Councilmember Lisa Poppaw • Councilmember Wade Troxell Staff liaisons support the LRC by contributing expertise in various areas of municipal service. The City works closely with the Colorado Municipal League on many legislative items. 3 LEGISLATIVE POLICY STATEMENTS AFFORDABLE HOUSING The City of Fort Collins supports policy and funding mechanisms that help the City develop and maintain affordable housing for our community's lowest income families.

Home rule authority affords the citizens of Fort Collins greater access to government and increased opportunity for participation and contribution to the decision making process. Home rule is of utmost importance to the City of Fort Collins. The City recognizes, however, that there are particular areas in which insistence on local control may be untimely or unwise. Therefore, proposed legislation must be reviewed on a case-by-case basis to determine when it is in the City's best interest to assert home rule authority and when the City should support statewide intervention. For example, the City must be free to regulate local activities that primarily impact the area within the City's boundaries, such as the speed of local traffic or the effects of particular land use developments. On the other hand, the cumulative effect of these and other activities has substantial statewide ramifications which may call for statewide regulation, so that, for example, state regulation may be needed to effectively manage overall growth and development in the state, traffic congestion in major transportation corridors and environmental quality. Therefore, the City supports the following policy statements: 1. Support legislative efforts to strengthen home rule authority of municipal governments. 2. Oppose legislation that requires State or Federal intervention in matters of local concern and which unnecessarily or adversely affect the City's ability to manage pursuant to its home rule authority. HUMAN RESOURCES The City of Fort Collins is committed to the safety and well-being of its employees. The City works diligently to be an efficient and responsible steward of tax dollars while ensuring that employees receive fair and competitive compensation and benefits. The City believes that its citizens, through their elected representatives on City Council, are in the best position to determine appropriate City employee compensation, benefits, and policies. Therefore, the City supports the following policy statements: 1. Oppose legislation that creates unnecessary burdens on or limits the City's ability to decide employment issues, including collective bargaining, arbitration, compensation, benefits and leaves. 9 2. Support legislation that expands the City's ability to offer health, welfare and wellness services for employees. 3. Oppose legislation that reduces current state funding for police officer death and disability benefits. 4. Oppose legislation that would permit employees with defined contribution plans to return to defined benefit plans if there is a cost to local government. NATURAL.AREAS AND OPEN LANDS The City has a vigorous program to protect natural areas and other important open lands within Fort Collins, within our Community Growth Management Area, and regionally. The City works in partnership with other communities, Larimer County, private land trusts, Great Outdoors Colorado, community groups, and state and federal agencies to achieve community and regional conservation goals. Therefore, the City supports the following policy statements: 1. Support legislation that maintains or enhances tax incentives for voluntary land conservation by private landowners. 2.

Support use of Great Outdoors Colorado and other sources for full funding of municipal government projects, with maximum local discretion regarding local needs and priorities. 10 3. Support legislation that enhances the City's ability to provide quality parks and recreation services and facilities for its citizens. PLANNING AND LAND USE Effective local land use planning and land development regulation contributes to the quality of life enjoyed primarily by Fort Collins residents, yet shared regionally within Larimer County. State legislation can influence local governments' ability to develop and implement land use plans for their communities. Therefore, the City supports the following policy statements: 1. Support legislation that requires regional cooperation in land use and transportation planning, and legislation that fosters sustainable development, without unduly constraining the City's home rule powers. 2. Support legislation that prohibits the annexation of land that is located within the boundaries of a Growth Management Area that was legally established by an intergovernmental agreement between a municipality and a county by any municipality not a party to the agreement. 3. Oppose legislation that would extend the definition of a compensable taking and/or the definition of vested property rights beyond the provisions of existing law. 4. Oppose legislation that would limit local government authority to impose development impact fees. PUBLIC SAFETY The Fort Collins City Council recognizes the critical importance of maintaining public order, providing a safe environment, and protecting the lives and property of the citizens of Fort Collins. Therefore,the City supports the following policy statements: 1. Support legislation that has the potential to reduce incidents of violence in the community, especially through the development of treatment and intervention programs for youth. 2.

Support legislation that establishes a deposit.fee on beverage containers and that would be used to pay for recycling programs. RISK MANAGEMENT The City of Fort Collins recognizes the dual purpose of the workers' compensation system—providing benefits promptly to injured employees in a cost-effective manner and minimizing costly litigation.

This helps ensure local governments' ability to negotiate, in the public interest, for cable channel space, institutional networks and public education and government programming. 2. Support legislation that re-establishes the rights of municipalities to provide low cost, accessible telecommunications services and related infrastructure. 14 TRANSPORTATION The City actively promotes the safety and ease of traveling to, from and throughout the community using a variety of modes of transportation.
