Resolution 2008-115 Authorizing the Lease of a Portion of City -owned Property at 300 North Howes Street to Friends of the Fort Collins Bike Program, Inc.. for up to Two Years as Part of the Recycled Bike Project. On December 18, 2007, City Council approved leasing 222 LaPorte Avenue to the Friends of the Fort Collins Bike Program, Inc. ("FFCBP"). This site is the former home of the Poudre Valley Creamery ("PVC"). The leased premises for the FFCBP include a garage at the west end of the site, the stand-alone building at the south of the parking lot and an area at the northeastern corner of the facility. The area at the northeastern corner of the building has been used by FFCBP for bike storage only. They have been utilizing the garage and the stand-alone building for the bike repair work. Due to structural deterioration in the northeast portion of the building, the City has been advised not to allow use in this area. As a result, staff has worked with the City's Bicycle Coordinator and the FFCBP to identify another area that could be used as bicycle storage. One block to the north is a City building, located at 300 North Howes, that is currently being used as storage but has room available for bikes. Since the building is only one block from the current site, this building became the optimum choice. The property at 300 North Howes is part of the Option Agreement with Penny Flats for its residential/commercial plans for this block. Staff has talked with Penny Flats about the possibility of leasing a portion of this site until it is ready to move forward with the option that contains the property at 300 North Howes Street. Penny Flats has agreed to allow the City to lease the property. Staff requests that Council approve a lease for the eastern bay, containing 1,306 square feet, of the building at 300 North Howes Street for the FFCBP. FFCBP will continue its use of the remainder of the leased premises at the PVC site.
