said Plan pursuant to the procedural and notice requirements of the City Charter, and the
Act, and the City Council having considered the evidence presented in support of and in
opposition to the Plan, the Survey, the City's Comprehensive Plan, and staff
recommendations and so having considered the legislative record and given appropriate
weight to the evidence; NOW, THEREFORE,
BE IT ORDAINED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF PUEBLO, that:
SECTION 1.
The Urban Renewal Area described in the Plan is found and declared to be a blighted
area as defined in the Act. This is a legislative finding by the City Council based upon the
Survey and other evidence presented to City Council.
SECTION 2.
The boundaries of the Urban Renewal Area have been drawn as narrowly as the
City Council determines feasible to accomplish the planning and development objectives of
the Plan.
SECTION 3.
The Plan has been submitted to the Board of County Commissioners of Pueblo
County, Colorado, (the "County") together with the information required by Section 31-25-
107(3.5) of the Act.
SECTION 4.
Pueblo City Schools (School District No. 60) has been permitted to participate in an
advisory capacity with respect to the inclusion in the Plan of the tax allocation provisions
authorized by Section 31-25-107(9) of the Act.
SECTION 5.
It is not expected that any relocation of individuals and families will be required in
connection with the Plan, but to the extent that any such relocation may be required, a
feasible method exists for the relocation of individuals and families in decent, safe, and
sanitary dwelling accommodations within their means and without undue hardship to such
individuals and families.
SECTION 6.
It is not expected that any relocation of business concerns will be required in
connection with the Plan, but to the extent that any such relocation may be required, a
feasible method exists for the relocation of such business concerns in the Urban Renewal
Area or in other areas that are not generally less desirable with respect to public utilities
and public and commercial facilities.
SECTION 7.
The City Council has taken reasonable efforts to provide written notice of the public
hearing prescribed by Section 31-25-107(3) of the Act to all property owners, residents, and
owners of business concerns in the proposed Urban Renewal Area at their last known
addresses at least thirty days prior to the public hearing on the Plan.

county infrastructure and services will be required to serve redevelopment in the Urban
Renewal Area while the tax allocation provisions authorized by Section 31-25-107(9)(a)(I)
and (II) of the Act are in place. Therefore, increases in County revenue resulting from the
proportionate adjustment of the valuations for assessment under subparagraphs (I) and (II)
of Section 31-25- 107(9)(a) of the Act and the increase in new County sales tax revenue
resulting from redevelopment in the Urban Renewal Area as described in the impact report
provided to the County pursuant to Section 31-25-107(3.5) of the Act will adequately finance
any additional County infrastructure or services while such tax allocation provisions are in
effect.
SECTION 13.
The Urban Renewal Area described in the Plan does not consist of open land within
the meaning of Sections 31-25-107(5) and (6) of the Act. Therefore, the findings and

all actions pursuant to the Act to carry out the Plan.

4. SUMMARY OF STATUTORY CRITERIA
The Authority utilized RickerCunningham and an attorney experienced in urban renewal
requirements, to survey and document whether conditions that constitute a "blighted area", as
defined in the Act, exist in the Area. The result of the survey is included in a document entitled
"Thunder Village II Area Conditions Survey" (the Conditions Survey) dated November 2019,
consisting of 19 pages. The Conditions Survey is incorporated herein in its entirety by this
reference.
The Conditions Survey shows that the following factors listed in the Act are present in the Area
and that these conditions qualify the Area as a"blighted area"as defined in the Act:
• Predominance of defective or inadequate street layout;
• Faulty lot layout in relation to size, adequacy, accessibility, or usefulness;
• Unsanitary or unsafe conditions;
• Deterioration of site or other improvements;
• Unusual topography and inadequate public improvements or utilities;
Page 3
• Buildings that are unsafe or unhealthy for persons to live or work in because of building
code violations, dilapidation, deterioration, defective design, physical construction, or

• The existence of health, safety, or welfare factors requiring high levels of municipal
services or substantial physical underutilization or vacancy of sites, buildings, or other
improvements.
5. DESCRIPTION OF URBAN RENEWAL PROJECT
This Plan will be implemented as part of a comprehensive program to eliminate and prevent blight
in the Urban Renewal Area. The Authority and the City, with the cooperation of private enterprise
and other local governing bodies, will undertake a program to eliminate the conditions of blight
identified in the Conditions Survey while implementing the Comprehensive Plan and any
supplemental plans. The principal goals of the plan are to help provide important municipal
services to the Area, attract private sector investment, utilize undeveloped land, and leverage
municipal investment and funding mechanisms to provide necessary public infrastructure to serve
the Area. The Plan is also intended to promote uses intended for the primary benefit of students,
employees and visitors of Colorado State University-Pueblo (CSU-PUEBLO) and provide new
convenient access to and from the Area and the CSU-PUEBLO campus. Although this Plan does
not preclude the acquisition of property by the Authority, there is no plan for the Authority to
acquire any property in the Area to implement any of the land uses authorized or permitted by the
Plan. The goals of the Plan will be accomplished by affording maximum opportunity for the
redevelopment of the Area by private enterprise as required by the Act.
A. Urban Renewal Plan Goals and the Plan's Relationship to Local and Regional Objectives.
I. Goals of the Plan
This Plan has been adopted to achieve the following goals in the Area:
The Plan's goal is to implement the City's Comprehensive Plan by assisting with the
elimination of development barriers in the Area. These barriers are characterized
principally by inadequate street patterns, lack of adequate and convenient access, and
lack of adequate public infrastructure. The Authority will cooperate with public and
private enterprise to remedy these conditions and to otherwise benefit and facilitate
redevelopment of the Area by private enterprise and to stimulate primary urban growth
for the City.
A principal goal of the Plan is to extend infrastructure and services to facilitate
redevelopment of the Area by private enterprise.
•
The Plan will implement the following provisions of the Comprehensive Plan:
Page 4
• To facilitate and enhance Mixed Use and neighborhood commercial development
with private and institutional users in and around CSU-PUEBLO;
• To help private enterprise provide the necessary infrastructure to service the needs
CSU-PUEBLO students, employees and visitors;
• To encourage efficient and prudent extensions of infrastructure in a manner that
considers both service providers and taxpayers; and
• To promote new subdivision developments that are reflective of Pueblo's older,
traditional neighborhoods. This is reflected in providing: a mix of housing types
and sizes; interconnected and pedestrian "friendly" streets; neighborhood
commercial and office services; access to parks; and tree lined streets providing an
urban canopy.
2. Implementation of the Plan will eliminate and prevent conditions of blight in the Urban
Renewal Area.
