Title

Ordinance No. 15-54 adopting Articles of Amendment to the Articles of Incorporation of The City of Colorado Springs Public Facilities Authority

 

Body

  From: 

Kara Skinner, Chief Financial Officer

 

  Summary:

The City of Colorado Springs created The City of Colorado Springs Recreation Authority in 1989 to purchase or otherwise acquire real estate for public purposes. In 2000, the name of the authority was changed to The City of Colorado Springs Public Facilities Authority, and in 2011, the authority’s Articles of Incorporation were amended to reflect changes in the membership of its Board of Directors resulting from the voter-approved change in the City’s form of government in 2010.

Earlier this year, the Board of Directors of the Public Facilities Authority recognized that the Articles of Incorporation needed further clarification as to the membership of the Authority’s Board of Directors, and thus unanimously adopted further amendments that are reflected in the attached Articles of Amendment. In order for the amendment to the Articles of Incorporation to be effective, the amendment must be approved by an affirmative vote of a majority of the members of City Council by ordinance.
