We care about our environment, and have a strong commitment to protecting it. We care about our community, and provide high quality facilities and programs. We care about fiscal responsibility, and are dedicated stewards of the community's resources.
The City of Fort Collins operates within a council-manager form of government, which means that the City Manager is the chief executive officer of the City and is responsible for the overall management of City operations.
