Relating to the Functions of the Senior Advisory Board.
The Senior Advisory Board (SAB) is asking that Section 2-398 of the City Code regarding
the Board's functions be amended to better describe the role the Board serves. The Board
is concerned that the current description of its functions implies duties and responsibilities
that the Board is not equipped to perform. The Board's recommended changes have been
approved by staff in the City Attorney's office and the Recreation Division.

Add a New Section Relating to Identifying Circulators of Petitions.
Article X, Section 5 of the City Charter and Chapter 7, Article VI of the City Code establish
certain regulations and requirements pertaining to the content and circulation of petitions and
the affidavits of petition circulators. Currently, neither the City Charter nor the City Code
requires that the status of petition circulators be identified as being either volunteer or paid.
This Ordinance would amend the City Code to impose such a requirement.

11. Second Reading of Ordinance No. 193, 2004, Amending the Zoning Map of the Cityof f Fort
Collins by Changing the Zoning Classification for that Certain Property Known as the
Running Deer Natural Area Rezoning,
The rezoning request is consistent with the City of Fort Collins Structure Plan designations
of both "Poudre River" and "Open Lands, Parks, Stream Corridors." The majority of the
properties contained within these "green" corridor designations are large publicly owned
parks, natural areas and open lands that have a community -wide emphasis or other
characteristics which warrant inclusion under this separate designation rather than inclusion
in an adjoining neighborhood or other District designation.
The T- Transition Zone District is intended for properties for which there are no specific and
immediate plans for development. The only permitted uses are those existing at the date the
property was placed into the district. Rezoning the property will allow the Natural Areas
Program to move forward with its plans to construct a parking lot and a trailhead to provide
public access to the property
There are roughly 14.828 acres on the northern end of the property which are currently being
leased by the City to an adjacent business. This area is not included in the rezoning request
and will remain within the T — Transition Zone District until the future use of the property
has been determined.
Ordinance No. 193, 2004 was unanimously adopted on First Reading on December 7, 2004.

8. Second Reading of Ordinance No. 190. 2004, Appropriating Prior Year Reserves in the
General Fund for Upgrading and Replacing the Development Tracking System and the
Development Management System.
The City of Fort Collins has operated and maintained a software application known as the
DTS since 1999. This application automates the departments of Building and Zoning and
Current Planning business processes. These processes include portions of the development
review process, the complete building permit process, as well as peripheral processes such
as contractor licensing. The software is a vital component to the operation of these
departments.
The vendor that supplies this application, Accela, recently released the latest version of this
automated system. The City diligently researched the new software release and has deemed
it a very desirable upgrade. The new release will align this system with the current standards
and direction of the City's overall Information Technology strategies.
Ordinance No. 190, 2004 was unanimously adopted on First Reading on December 7, 2004.
