Body
Summary:
In 2007 the RES Manual was initially approved by City Council Resolution. After 13 years and three (3) amendments it was time to completely review, revise and update the RES Manual.
Background:
The Manual Revision Committee (the “Committee”) is comprised of representatives from the City of Colorado Springs to include the City Attorney’s office, Colorado Springs Airport, Parks, Recreation and Cultural Services, Public Works, SWENT and the Planning Department; Colorado Springs Utilities and City Councilmembers Knight and Geislinger. The Committee’s mission was to totally review and revise the existing RES Manual that was approved by City Council Resolution on September 11, 2007, as has been in use since then with three (3) revisions (see below). The Committee has worked diligently to clarify, update, and strengthen the RES Manual to make the Manual and even better tool for the acquisition and disposition of the City's real property interests.
