o the City could consider possible rezonings of selected mobile home parks limiting
other permitted uses in the new district and, thus, reducing land use
redevelopment possibilities in the future;
o the City could consider tax or other financial incentives to the owners of affordable
housing units and mobile home parks/communities to maintain their properties
and upgrade basic infrastructure (incentives approach); and/or
o the City could encourage stricter enforcement of health and safety laws and
zoning code infractions that lower the quality of life in affordable units and mobile
home parks/communities making them target areas for redevelopment (regulatory
approach).
• A requirement to provide relocation assistance to all low-income households displaced
as a result of affordable housing units, or mobile home park spaces, being lost due to
redevelopment activity and are not able to be preserved.
The AHRDMS project will need to define different roles, responsibilities, and
obligations for the City of Fort Collins depending upon the location of a
redevelopment activity. City assisted projects inside the city limits, such as those
to which the City contributes financial support or those that require other City
actions, such as a rezoning, development project approval, etc., could require a
greater role, responsibilities, and obligations as differentiated from those projects
that occur outside the city limits within the GMA. The AHRDMS project will also
need to assess the capacities and the roles, responsibilities, and obligations of
other local governments, affordable housing agencies, and non-profit human
service agencies, again differentiated as to whether or not the redevelopment
activity occurs within the city limits or in the GMA.
References and comparisons between the provisions and requirements of the
City's Relocation Plan that differ from the federal Uniform Relocation Act
requirements will need to be made. This will include descriptions regarding which
provisions and requirements are the same (or similar) and which are different
and explanations as to why they are different.
• A requirement for property -owners or developers to contribute funding (e.g., payment of
a fee) or to replace all affordable units and/or mobile home park spaces lost from the
supply of such units or spaces in the community, or a requirement to incorporate such
units into the redevelopment project. A new fee would require a detailed nexus analysis
relating the fee charged to the need to replace lost affordable housing units or mobile
home spaces.
■ Timing — September/October 2012
Task 5. Public Forums and Meetings
The AHRDMS project will be a collaboration of City staff, key stakeholders, and the Professional
requiring coordination and review throughout the project. The methods of public involvement will
be collaborative process between city staff and the Professional consistent with the City's
strategies contained in the Public Engagement Strategic Plan.

discuss the range of AHRDMS project elements identified during the planning process and
identify what is important to them. Pros, cons, costs, and track records of each element will be

(i.e. notification, organization of venues, facilitation of the meetings, minutes) with input from the
professional. During this period, the Professional will also conduct an initial work session with
City Council on October 23, 2012.
■ Timing — September/October and November 2012
Advisory Boards and Commissions: The AHB and P&Z, for land use issues, will be the two key
advisory boards involved in the plan as each body will be making formal recommendations to
the City Council as the Council considers adoption of the Relocation Plan and its
implementation actions. Other boards and commission may be asked for their review and
comments. At least two meetings with the AHB and P&Z.,will be needed during the planning
process. Staff can provide the AHB and P&Z with routine monthly updates of the process to
develop the plan.
• Timing — September 2012 — February 2013
City Council Presentations: The Professional will need to attend at least two meetings with City
Council:
• an initial work session (October 23) to outline the potential key policies, objectives, and
possible implementation actions for the Relocation Plan (October 23, 2012), and
• 2) a regular meeting to present the final version of the Relocation Plan, where City
Council will adopt the plan (January/February 2013).
Task 6. PrepareDis placement Mitigation Strategies Document
Based on input from public and stakeholders during Task 5, the Professional will prepare a draft
AHRDMS document which will include the following elements, and with differing roles, policies,
and actions within the city limits and the GMA as necessary:
• Executive Summary
• Past History and Potential Problem Areas
o Inventory of past displacements
o Estimate of properties that could be impacted by future redevelopment
activity
• Regulations and Best Practices
