Here is a concise roundup of formal council actions taken Feb. 11, 2025.
Adopted or approved (votes shown as recorded in session):
- Ordinance 2025-15 (hotel licenses): adopted unanimously. Council said the ordinance creates a non-fee mechanism to address hotel operation issues, not a punitive fee program.
- Ordinance 2025-16 (lease with Archdiocese of Denver for Saint John the Baptist parking lot): adopted unanimously.
- Ordinance 2025-17 (lease of Vance Brand Municipal Airport Hangar Parcel H23 to Allen Green): adopted unanimously after airport manager explained rate-setting procedures.
- Acceptance of 2023–2028 Capital Improvement Program amendments (item 9f): council accepted the manager-approved CIP amendments (unanimous vote after discussion of funding sources).
Continued for further review:
- Ordinances 2025-11 through 2025-14 (amendments to various City of Longmont retirement/pension plan sections): continued to March 4 to allow consultation with special counsel regarding effective dates and spousal-consent language.
Other formal actions:
- Motion to explore an ordinance on data protection and government accountability (Councilor McCoy): motion advanced and the mayor announced it passed with staff directed to present current protocols at a future meeting; transcript reports the motion "passes 6 2 1" and records Councilor Rodriguez’s opposition verbally.
- Authorization to pursue civil action against Golden Triangle Construction Inc. concerning alleged breach of contract on the Museum/Police/Storage facility: council authorized staff to pursue litigation (unanimous).
- Motion to oppose Senate Bill 25-117 (transportation-fee reductions): council voted to oppose the bill following staff analysis that it would reduce transportation funding and negatively affect air quality; recorded vote noted in transcript.
Votes listed above reflect the roll-call and voice-vote language as announced in the meeting; where the transcript records only a verbal result ("passes 6 2 1"), that phrasing is reproduced rather than an itemized roll call.
