  • Boards and Commissions City of Fort Collins

    Fort Collins, CO
    Other

    The City of Fort Collins operates multiple boards and commissions that provide advisory and quasi-judicial functions to guide city decision-making on topics including land use, housing, and public services. Recruitment for these boards occurs annually in December–January and is managed by the City Clerk's Office. Type 1 Advisory Boards (including the Active Modes, Affordable Housing, Air Quality, Parks and Recreation, and Transportation boards, among others) make formal recommendations to City Council and staff but lack decision-making authority. Type 2 Advisory Boards (Arts and Culture, Citizen Review, and Human Services and Housing Funding) combine advisory functions with authority to make decisions on specified matters under City Code. Quasi-judicial commissions (Building Review, Historic Preservation, Land Use Review, Planning and Zoning, and Water commissions) use formal procedures to determine facts and interpret law with decisions subject to appeal to City Council or courts. Since 2015, the city has held "super issue" meetings convening multiple boards and commissions to discuss broader policy matters outside their standard functions.
