General Fund and Authorizing the Transfer of Appropriated Amounts Between Accounts and
Projects for the Multi -Jurisdictional Drug Task Force.
Fort Collins Police Services applied to the Office of Drug Control and System Improvement
(Byrne Grant) on behalf of the Task Force for federal grant monies to help fund the
investigation of illegal narcotics activities in Larimer County. These funds will be used to
match personnel costs related to the assigned Colorado State University Detective, rental and

10. Second Reading of Ordinance No. 105, 2004, Amending Section 20-22 of the City Code
Relating to Unreasonable Noise.
In October 2003 at the request of City Councilmembers, a cross section of City agencies
formed a committee to look into the City's current noise ordinances dealing with motor
vehicle loud muffler noise and motorcycle noise specifically. After discussion and review
of ordinances around the country, the committee made recommendations for changes to the
City Code in an effort to reduce the problems with motor vehicle noise which were adopted
on First Reading, March 2, 2004, by adoption of Ordinance No. 033, 2004. However, in May
2004, by the adoption of Ordinance No. 071, 2004, the noise ordinance was again amended
and language previously approved by Ordinance No. 033, 2004 pertaining to motor vehicle
noise was inadvertently omitted
OrdinanceNo. 105,2004, was adopted 5-0 (Councilmembers Hamrick and Roywere absent)
on First Reading on July 6, 2004, restating the omitted section regarding motor vehicle noise.

Requests for the City to vacate portions of its public right-of-way (ROW) are received with
regular frequency. These requests are normally from private property owners or developers
who want to convert portions of the public ROW to private use. An informal process has
been in place to deal with such requests, but the increasing frequency (now averaging 1-2 per
month) has prompted staff to create policy and procedure language to insure consistent
responses to these requests. At present, the City Code is silent on this issue, and ROW
vacations are handled in accordance with state law. This Ordinance, which was adopted 5-0
(Councilmembers Hamrick and Roy were absent) on First Reading on July 6, 2004, adds
