CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION
6:00 PM
The purpose of this item is for Transfort staff to provide an update to Council on the outcome of the Transfort Optimization Study and Plan. The Transfort Optimization Plan is a fiscally constrained, short-range service plan that aligns Fort Collins’ transit network with current financial realities, community needs, and long-term sustainability goals, with a focus towards increasing ridership and better serving transit-reliant populations and high-travel corridors. Developed through extensive public engagement, data analysis, and national best practices, the plan prioritizes frequency, reliability, and equitable access while maintaining a fare-free system. The recommended scenario establishes a streamlined, grid-based network that strengthens high-demand corridors, improves connectivity to key destinations, and operates within available resources.
The purpose of this item is to seek direction from Council on their priority to promote affordability and sustainable growth by making development predictable, efficient, and cost effective. Staff propose two main work streams: Program and System Refinement and Removing Regulatory Barriers. Program and System Refinement will focus on improving the customer experience, updating legacy software, and reducing processing times of development applications. Removing Regulatory Barriers will better align all land use regulations to reduce conflicting regulations, balance trade-offs, and achieve development that is more consistent with the City’s goals. Staff will leverage the Ad Hoc Committee by meeting every other month to seek the committee’s direction on each component of these work streams.
The purpose of this item is to provide background and an implementation plan to address the best use and sustainability of the downtown parking system. This plan aims to support a vibrant downtown, provide a customer-focused system for all users, and ensure a financially sustainable parking system.
