WE WANT YOUR FEEDBACK. Please use the colored post-it notes to make comments and stick them to the edge of the specific board. Use the colors to denote things you like and would like to see more of, (GREEN), and things you think need addressing or you are unsure about (PINK). PLEASE NOTE: The plans and illustrations are part of the master plan study and are all conceptual. Each concept plan addresses the right of way for each alley and also depicts opportunities on adjacent land parcels that have the potential to enhance the area, businesses, and downtown Fort Collins. The concept plans are conceptual only and all designs would require further development per alley with detailed discussion with all business owners before any ideas can be implemented. p: 970.484.8855 www.russellmills.com
