The purpose of this item is to approve the minutes of the October 26, 2023 Urban Renewal Authority Board meeting.
The purpose of this item is to consider adoption of the 2024 budget for the Fort Collins Urban Renewal Authority. Staff submitted two budget offers for the Urban Renewal Authority (URA) as part of the City’s biennial Budgeting for Outcomes (BFO) process in 2022. Since the City produces a two-year budget as part of BFO, staff prepared a two-year budget for the URA for 2023 and 2024. The 2024 budget as presented mirrors the information presented to the Board in 2022 and contains updated revenue and expense forecasts based on the County Assessor’s most recent property reassessment and 2023 expenditures to date.
The first budget offer covers the costs of performing core functions of the URA. The second offer is for the URA’s debt service payments. Combined, the total original appropriation for the 2024 URA budget would be $6,121,898. After these expenses, both the North College and Prospect South plan areas would generate excess revenues. Staff forecasts nearly $7.6 million in available cash in the North College plan area and $1.7 million in available cash in the Prospect South plan area by the end of 2024. Public notice of this public hearing was published in the Coloradoan Newspaper on Sunday, November 12, 2023.
