Strategic Implementation Plan for The Ranch Events Complex (Larimer County Fairgrounds & Budweiser Event Center) – Community Survey Online Questionnaire |
Thank you for participating in this community survey concerning the Strategic Implementation Plan for The Ranch Events Complex in Larimer County. Your input and opinions are important to the County and the Project Leadership Team. Thank you for your interest in the project and for your participation in the discussion of important planning issues concerning the future of The Ranch.
The Ranch has long-served the residents of Larimer County as a productive community asset. Since its opening in 2003, The Ranch has hosted thousands of events, attracted millions of visitors, and generated hundreds of millions of dollars of economic activity. A strength of The Ranch is its appeal to a broad diversity of event types, user bases, and industry segments. |
In 2017, Larimer County voters approved a 20-year extension of a 0.15 percent sales tax (15 cents per $100 spent) to fund continued improvements to The Ranch based on the vision outlined within a Master Plan completed earlier in the year. The County has since retained the services of a highly-qualified Project Team of consultants, architects and construction project managers to further refine the Master Plan and develop an Implementation Strategy to allocate these funds in a manner that protects the long-term future of The Ranch and its mission, while providing the greatest community benefit and generating the highest return on the County’s investment. While the Project Team’s work is still ongoing and recommendations are not yet finalized, the effort to-date has further defined the market opportunities and generated a shortlist of development scenarios. |
This survey is seeking your feedback on your past experience with Ranch facilities and your reaction to various approach options that are being considered for the final Strategic Implementation Plan. Please be as candid with your responses as possible and know that the information you provide will NOT be added to any type of sales-related database. We will not attribute your name, email address or other contact information to the overall results. Thank you in advance for your feedback. |
