FORT COLLINS, Colo. (AP) — The Fort Collins City Council has
taken the first step toward a ballot question about a ban on hydraulic fracturing for oil and
gas. Under action taken Tuesday, the April ballot question will
be on council's agenda for action next month.
Last month the
council adopted a moratorium through the end of July on new oil and gas
development inside the city and on other city-owned lands. It does not
prohibit hydraulic fracturing, also known as fracking, on existing wells
to free gas and oil trapped underground.
According to the Fort
Collins Coloradoan, people opposed to the
oil and gas extraction technique flooded public comment sessions at city
council meetings in recent weeks demanding a ballot referendum in the
April 2 municipal election asking for a permanent ban.
