RECOMMENDATION Approval of Ordinance BACKGROUND The scope of work of DOLA grant project is being amended to consist of with a regional planning effort that will address urban scale development for the North Pueblo Special Development Area of the Pueblo Regional Development Plan. A series of facilitated meetings including all the local governmental entities responsible for providing urban services will be conducted leading to the adoption of an intergovernmental agreement which will guide urbanized growth in the North Pueblo Special Development Area to be implemented within the City of Pueblo or an existing urban service provider. The tasks that have been removed from the scope of work include: 1) the adoption of a common development code for the urban service area; and 2) acceptance of a common roadway classification system within the urbanizing area. Since the urbanized development within the North Pueblo Special Development Area is being identified to occur within the City of Pueblo, the City's development code and roadway standards will be followed for new urbanized areas. FINANCIAL IMPACT The fiscal impact is the same as the original grant contract with the $26,000 in funding from the Colorado Heritage Planning Grant and $27,029 committed in local matching funds, for a total project budget of $53,029. The City's share of the project will be $15,057, which has been previously transferred from the General Fund reserves. The Pueblo County Commissioners agreed to a commitment of $11,972 for the present project at their Work Session April 19, 2007. A resolution approving an agreement between the City and County relating to the local matching funds for this project is being submitted concurrently with the contract amendment.
