COUNCIL COMMUNICATION
TO: Mayor and Council
FROM: Jacob Warren
DEPARTMENT: Public Works
DATE: January 4, 2022
SUBJECT:
CB 02 - Bill for an ordinance approving an Intergovernmental
Agreement with CDOT for Maintenance of the US-285 & S.
Broadway Interchange Reconstruction Project
DESCRIPTION:
CB 02 - This is an intergovernmental agreement that stipulates maintenance obligations for the
City and CDOT within the US-285 & S Broadway project area. US-285 falls under the
jurisdiction of CDOT, while S. Broadway is under the jurisdiction of the City, therefore, it is
necessary to come to an agreement on which entity will maintain the infrastructure built as part
of the project.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends approval of a bill for an ordinance regarding the proposed maintenance IGA
between the city and the Colorado Department of Transportation (CDOT).
PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION:
The city signed a letter of support, dated February 19, 2019, committing $1.1M for the local
match of the total $9.5M anticipated project cost.
City Council passed Council Bill No. 18 (Ordinance No. 20, Series of 2020) to approve the
associated Intergovernmental Agreement between the City and CDOT which defines the terms
for utilizing the federal funds awarded for this project.
City Council approved the award of a contract to Atkins North America, Inc. to design the US-
285 & S Broadway Interchange Reconstruction Project on October 19, 2020.
On July 26, 2021, City Council provided staff with direction on certain aesthetic characteristics
of the project.
SUMMARY:
The US-285 & S. Broadway Interchange Reconstruction project will construct infrastructure
within both the city and CDOT's rights of way. Furthermore, US-285 is under the jurisdictional
control of CDOT, while S. Broadway is under the jurisdictional control of the city. Therefore, it is
necessary to stipulate which agency will own, operate, and maintain the infrastructure built by
the project. In general, the City will maintain features on and directly associated with S.
Broadway, while CDOT will maintain features on US-285 and the interchange ramps.
Page 21 of 136
ANALYSIS:
In general, maintenance obligations in this agreement are similar to the maintenance operations
currently performed by each agency. The city will maintain features on and directly associated
with S. Broadway, while CDOT will maintain features on US-285 and the interchange ramps. A
key exception to this is that the city will own and maintain the proposed storm sewer system and
street lighting on US-285. This is dictated by Colorado Revised Statute 43-2-135. Division of
authority over streets, which states that "The city, city and county, or incorporated town at its
own expense shall provide street illumination and shall clean all such streets, including storm
sewer inlets and catch basins." While this document stipulates the city as the responsible party
for street lighting on US-285, the street lighting on US-285 will continue to be owned and
operated by Xcel Energy through the city's franchise agreement with Xcel Energy. CDOT will
own and maintain the structural elements of the S. Broadway bridge over US-285. The city will
own and maintain the tiered retaining walls, the decorative bridge columns, and the landscaped
areas within the interchange. The city will be responsible for the asphalt overlay on the bridge,
as well as the streetscape elements on the bridge such as the sidewalk, pedestrian railing, and
pedestrian lights.
CONCLUSION:
The city and CDOT will both benefit from a maintenance agreement which clearly dictates which
agency will be responsible for the maintenance and operation of the infrastructure built by the
US-285 & S. Broadway Interchange Reconstruction Project. This formalized agreement will
allow both agencies to accurately budget and plan maintenance activities around the
interchange.
FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS:
This agreement does not include financial commitments. Given the similarity to existing
maintenance responsibilities, the agreement is not anticipated to increase the city's financial
burden associated with maintaining the interchange.
CONNECTION TO STRATEGIC PLAN:
Sustainability - Maintain the current built environment and maximize the lifecycle of
newer high-profile buildings (police station, schools)
Establishing clearly defined maintenance obligations for this multi-jurisdictional interchange is
key to minimizing future reconstruction costs and maximizing the lifecycle of the associated
infrastructure.
OUTREACH/COMMUNICATIONS:
Staff and the design consultant, Atkins North America, hosted three public information meetings:
one in February 2021, one in May of 2021, and one in October 2021. Staff has utilized the City
website as well as the recently launched Englewood Engaged platform to keep residents
informed. Interested parties can find information on the project as well as recordings of the
public meetings on the Englewood Engaged project webpage.

A. This contract is subject to such modifications as may be required by changes in federal or
State law, or their implementing regulations. Any such required modification shall
automatically be incorporated into and be part of this contract on the effective date of
such change as if fully set forth herein. Except as provided above, no modification of this
contract shall be effective unless agreed to in writing by both Parties in an amendment to
this contract that is properly executed and approved in accordance with applicable law.
B. To the extent that this contract may be executed and performance of the obligations of the
Parties may be accomplished within the intent of the contract, the terms of this contract
are severable, and should any term or provision hereof be declared invalid or become
inoperative for any reason, such invalidity or failure shall not affect the validity of any
other term or provision hereof. The waiver of any breach of a term hereof shall not be
construed as a waiver of any other term, or the same term upon subsequent breach.
C. This contract is intended as the complete integration of all understandings between the
Parties. No prior or contemporaneous addition, deletion, or other amendment hereto shall
have any force or affect whatsoever, unless embodied herein by writing. No subsequent
novation, renewal, addition, deletion, or other amendment hereto shall have any force or
effect unless embodied in a written contract executed and approved pursuant to the State
Fiscal Rules.
D. Except as herein otherwise provided, this contract shall inure to the benefit of and be
binding upon the Parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns.
E. The term of this contract shall begin the date first above written and shall extend for the
useful life of the improvements, unless earlier modified or terminated by written
agreement of the Parties hereto.
F. It is expressly understood and agreed that the enforcement of the terms and conditions of
this contract, and all rights of action relating to such enforcement, shall be strictly
reserved to the Parties hereto, and nothing contained in this contract shall give or allow
any such claim or right of action by any other or third person on such contract. It is the

COLORADO REVISED STATUTES
*** This document reflects changes current through all laws passed at the First Regular Session
of the Sixty-Ninth General Assembly of the State of Colorado (2013) ***
TITLE 43. TRANSPORTATION
HIGHWAYS AND HIGHWAY SYSTEMS
ARTICLE 2.STATE, COUNTY, AND MUNICIPAL HIGHWAYS
PART 1. STATE, COUNTY, AND CITY HIGHWAYSYSTEMS
C.R.S. 43-2-135 (2013)
43-2-135. Division of authority over streets
(1) The jurisdiction, control, and duty of the state, cities, cities and counties, and incorporated towns with respect
to streets which are a part of the state highway system is as follows:
(a) The city, city and county, and incorporated town shall exercise full responsibility for and control over any such
street beyond and including the curbs and, if no curb is installed, beyond the traveled way, its contiguous
shoulders, and appurtenances; except that the regulation and control of driveways shall be subject to the
provisions of section 43-2-147.
(b) The department of transportation has authority to prohibit the suspension of signs, banners, or decorations
above the portion of such streets between the curbs or portion used for highway purposes up to a vertical height
of twenty feet above the surface of the roadway.
(c) The city, city and county, or incorporated town at its own expense shall maintain all underground facilities in
such streets and has the right to construct such underground facilities as may be necessary in such streets.
(d) The city, city and county, or incorporated town has the right to grant the privilege to open the surface of any
such street, but all damages occasioned thereby shall promptly be repaired either by the city, city and county, or
incorporated town itself or at its direction.
(e) The city, city and county, or incorporated town at its own expense shall provide street illumination and shall
clean all such streets, including storm sewer inlets and catch basins.
(f) The department of transportation has the right to utilize all storm sewers on such highways without cost; and
if new storm sewer facilities are necessary in construction of streets by the department of transportation, the
cost of such facilities shall be borne by the state and municipality as may be mutually agreed upon between the
department of transportation and the local governing body of the city, city and county, or incorporated town.
(g) Cities, cities and counties, and incorporated towns shall regulate and enforce all traffic and parking
restrictions on streets which are state highways, but all regulations adopted after December 31, 1979, shall be
approved in writing by the department of transportation before becoming effective on such streets; except that
such regulations shall become effective on such streets sixty days after receipt for review by the department of
transportation if not disapproved in writing by said department during that sixty-day period.
(h) The department of transportation shall erect, control, and maintain at state expense all route markers and
directional signs, except street signs on those streets.
(i) The department of transportation shall install, operate, maintain, and control at state expense all traffic
control signals, signs, and traffic control devices on state highways in cities, the city and county of Denver, the
city and county of Broomfield, and incorporated towns. No local authority shall erect or maintain any stop sign or
traffic control signal at any location so as to require the traffic on any state highway to stop before entering or
crossing any intersecting highway unless approval in writing has first been obtained from the department of
transportation. For the purpose of this paragraph (i), striping, lane-marking, and channelization are considered

traffic control devices.
(j) Rights-of-way for such street shall be acquired by either the city, city and county, or incorporated town or by
the state as is mutually agreed upon. Costs of acquiring such rights-of-way may be at the sole expense of the
state or the city, city and county, or incorporated town, or both, as may be mutually agreed. Title to all rights-
of-way so acquired shall vest in the city, city and county, or incorporated town, or the state, according to the
agreement under which said rights-of-way were secured.
(k) The department of transportation is authorized to acquire rights-of-way by purchase, gift, or condemnation
for any such streets, highways, and bridges. Any such condemnation proceeding shall be exercised in the
manner provided by law for condemnation proceedings to acquire lands required for state highways. Nothing in
this section shall be construed as abrogating the rights of home rule cities to acquire lands for state purposes in
the manner set forth in the charter of said cities.

ANNOTATION
Municipal regulations relating to traffic and parking on highway-streets subject to approval by highway
department. This section declares that cities, cities and counties, and incorporated towns shall regulate and
enforce traffic and parking restrictions on all highway-streets within the municipal boundaries, but provides that
all regulations shall be subject to approval of the department of highways before becoming effective. This section
also purports to divide authority over streets which are part of the state highway system. It defines in detail the
obligations of cities, cities and counties, and incorporated towns with respect to streets which are a part of the
state highway system. City County of Denver v. Pike, 140 Colo. 17, 342 P.2d 688 (1959).
Where state has recognized right to regulate, no prior approval required. Where the right of a city to regulate
speed on a freeway bisecting a city has been recognized by the state, allowing the city to post the highway and
enforce its ordinances, it is not necessary for the city to obtain prior approval of its regulations before they could
become effective. City County of Denver v. Pike, 140 Colo. 17, 342 P.2d 688 (1959).
This section authorizes resort to agreement concerning the acquisition of property; however, it is only an optional
method and is permissible as a substitute for proceedings in condemnation. Town of Greenwood Vill. v. District
Court, 138 Colo. 283, 332 P.2d 210 (1958).
Considering paragraphs (j) and (k) of subsection (1) together, paragraph (j) is permissive only and does not
make consent of a town a prerequisite to condemnation of private property within its corporate limits, or to
condemnation of public property already in use for street purposes, the fee title to which lies in a town. Town of
Greenwood Vill. v. District Court, 138 Colo. 283, 332 P.2d 210 (1958).
The department of highways can lawfully condemn public or private property within a municipality for the
purpose of continuing state highways into or through cities or towns. The principle is identical as far as
acquisition of park lands by the state is concerned. Welch v. City County of Denver, 141 Colo. 587, 349 P.2d 352
(1960).
State not compelled to condemn where city and state have agreement. Where agreement was reached between
the state and the city where the city granted the state the right to construct a highway on park land, the state
was not compelled to institute condemnation proceedings. By enacting the ordinances authorizing the use of
park lands for highway purposes, all was accomplished by agreement that would otherwise have had to be
accomplished by condemnation proceedings. Welch v. City County of Denver, 141 Colo. 587, 349 P.2d 352

COUNCIL COMMUNICATION
TO: Mayor and Council
FROM: Pieter Van Ry
DEPARTMENT: Utilities
DATE: January 4, 2022
SUBJECT: Martin and Wood Water Consultants Change Order
DESCRIPTION:
Staff is seeking Council approval, by Motion, to execute a change order with Martin and Wood
Water Consultants, in the amount of $50,608.25, for water resources engineering support.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends City Council approve, by Motion, a Change Order with Martin and Wood
Water Consultants in the amount of $50,608.25, for the July 2020 to June 2021 contracting
period.
The Water and Sewer Board recommended council approve, by motion, the change order at its
December 14, 2021 meeting.
PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION:
• July 19, 2021 – City Council approved the renewal of the Professional Services
Agreement (PSA) with Martin and Wood for water resources engineering in the amount
of $350,000.00.
• July 6, 2020 – City Council approved the renewal of the PSA with Martin and Wood for
water resources engineering in the amount of $300,000.00.
• May 6, 2019 – City Council approved a PSA with Martin and Wood for water resources
engineering in the amount of $400,000.00.
SUMMARY:
The City has engaged Martin and Wood for water resources engineering support since the
1990’s. Historically, Martin and Wood focused on protection of existing rights through monitoring
and responding to water court applications and diligence cases on an as-needed basis. In May
2019, City Council approved execution of the first PSA with Martin and Wood, in the amount of
$400,000.00, to formalize the scope and fee for this work. This approval covered the contracting
period between January 1, 2019, through December 31, 2019.
In July 2020, City Council approved the renewal of the PSA for the contracting period of July
2020 through June 2021, in the amount of $300,000.00. The reduced contract amount of
$300,000.00 more accurately reflected the historic annual contract spend. As new Utilities
leadership became more familiar with the City’s water resources portfolio over the second half
of 2020, it became evident that a more proactive approach to managing these important
resources was necessary. This resulted in expanding the scope of Martin and Wood’s
engineering support services. Additional services focused on a proactive and forward-looking
Page 46 of 136
water resources management approach. These tasks included improving service to our
customers through water quality improvements, maximizing water resources yield, accurately
and equitably recovering revenues from water sales and operations, and planning for the City’s
future water supply needs.
Expanded task items performed by Martin and Wood for the 2020 contract renewal include:
• Analysis of water rights decrees for improved water quality operations
• Reappraisal of water sales to Centennial Water Sanitation District
• Development of a data-driven and scenario-based demand analysis and yield model
• Development of a prioritized capital improvement plan to meet future goals
• Institutional knowledge transition to City staff through workshops
• Engineering support for a new contract user and tap on City Ditch
• Defense of the City’s contractual allotment with Denver Water
• Researching and defending City interests for illicit water use off City Ditch
After the execution of the PSA renewal in July 2020, new Utilities staff discovered that the
Purchase Order (PO) created for the 2019 initial agreement was inadvertently expired at the
end of calendar year 2019. This resulted in the inability to pay invoices over the first half of
2020. The new PO issued as part of the PSA renewal was used to retroactively pay these
outstanding invoices.
ANALYSIS:
A change order in the amount of $50,608.25 is required to cover the expanded services
discussed in the previous section. This change order will increase the contract amount from
$300,000.00 to $350,608.25 for the July 2020 to June 2021 contracting period.
Utilities staff has implemented the following improvements to the external contracts associated
with water resources management to minimize the likelihood of change orders moving forward.
1. Adding a water resources engineer dedicated to managing the Martin and Wood
contract. Duties of this role include monitoring and prioritizing Martin and Wood’s
workload and spend rate to ensure that work is being performed efficiently and within the
available annual budget.
2. Utilities staff will request a 6-month renewal at the conclusion of the 2021/2022
contracting period in June 2022. This will align the contract period to the calendar year
and avoid the situation that occurred in 2020, where an active PO expired at the end of
the prior calendar year.
3. A contingency line item will be included in future contract renewals to account for
unforeseen circumstances that may result in increased services from Martin and Wood.
CONCLUSION:
Staff recommends Council approve a change order for 2020/2021 PSA/20-37 with Martin and
Wood Water Consultants in the amount of $50,608.25, for a total contract amount of
$350,608.25 for the July 2020 to June 2021 contracting period.

Brian,
Here is calculation based on 48.5% alum and lbs/gal of 11.25. These will vary slightly load to load.
Current price is $396.67/dry ton, increasing $24.33.dry ton to $421/dry ton.
$/dry ton / 2000lbs/ton = $/dry lb
$/dry lb * 0.485 % alum = $/wet lb
$/wet lb * 11.25lbs/gal = $/gal
$396.67/2000*0.485*11.25= $1.08/gal
$421/2000*0.485*11.25 = $1.145/gal

Thanks for the numbers. My last invoice says I am paying $1.07790/ gal. I am trying to forecast my
PO $$ amount. Can you translate how your increase would affect my price per gal? It looks like a

COUNCIL COMMUNICATION
TO: Mayor and Council

DEPARTMENT: Utilities
DATE: January 4, 2022
SUBJECT:
2022 Allen Water Treatment Plant Bulk Chemical Purchases for
Sodium Hypochlorite 10% and Sodium Hydroxide 50% from DPC
Industries, Inc.
DESCRIPTION:
The Allen Water Treatment Plant (AWTP) utilizes sodium hypochlorite for disinfection in the
water treatment process, as mandated by the Colorado Department of Public Health and
Environment (CDPHE) to process drinking water for public consumption.
RECOMMENDATION:
Utilities staff recommends City Council approve, by Resolution, the 2022 bulk chemical
purchases for Sodium Hypochlorite 10% in the amount of $225,000 and Sodium Hydroxide 50%
in the amount of $112,000 from DPC Industries, Inc.
The Water and Sewer Board recommended council approve, by Resolution, the purchase of
2022 bulk chemicals at its December 14, 2021 meeting.
PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION:
• October 18, 2021 – City Council approval of the 2022 Utilities Department Budget.
• April 5, 2021 – City Council approval of 2021 AWTP Bulk Chemical purchases.
SUMMARY:
The AWTP uses sodium hypochlorite 10%, or bleach, for disinfection in the water treatment
process, as mandated by the CDPHE to produce drinking water for public consumption.
The AWTP utilizes sodium hydroxide 50%, or caustic soda, to adjust the pH levels of the water
ensuring it remains safe within the distribution system by mitigating harmful constituents, such
as lead and copper, from leaching into the drinking water supply.
ANALYSIS:
Utilities staff purchases sodium hypochlorite 10% and sodium hydroxide 50% in bulk from DPC
Industries, Inc. through a cooperative bid. In February 2021, Utilities staff joined Colorado’s

COUNCIL COMMUNICATION
TO: Mayor and Council
FROM: Tamara Niles
DEPARTMENT: City Attorney's Office
DATE: January 4, 2022
SUBJECT:
CB 01 - Approve a Bill for an Ordinance amending Municipal Code
regarding Trespass, Ejectment, and Exclusion from City Property
DESCRIPTION:
CB 01 - Recent case law has called into question the enforceability of the City's former practice
in removing persons from City property for rules violations, safety concerns, and legal violations.
The proposed bill for an ordinance was carefully drafted to modify municipal code to provide a
legally-sound, enforceable method to remove and exclude people from City property, while still
protecting their due process rights.
RECOMMENDATION:
Approve a bill for an ordinance amending the City's ejectment, exclusion and trespass
procedures.
PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION:
In 1985, City Council adopted the Trespass and Park Ejectment Municipal Code Sections 7-6F-
2 and 11-4-3, and they have not been revised since, according to the legislative history
contained within MuniCode.
SUMMARY:
A recent trend in case law in the Nation, analyzing the constitutionality of municipal ordinances
in other cities and towns on ejectment, exclusion and trespass, has indicated the need for
revision of Englewood's Trespass and Park Ejectment Municipal Code Sections 7-6F-2 and 11-
4-3. The proposed ordinance has been carefully drafted based on extensive legal research,
analysis, and input provided from City staff to provide for a legally-sound method to remove and
exclude people from City property, including but not limited to City parks, for rule violations and
legal violations, while also providing a robust appeals procedure protective of due process
rights.
ANALYSIS:
The proposed ordinance provides for several potential responses for people committing rule
violations or legal violations, including verbal warnings, ejectment from City property for 24
hours, or exclusion from City property for limited lengths of time. The proposed ordinance also
provides a comprehensive appeals procedure, in addition to permitting requests for modification
of exclusions if no appeal is pending and facts or circumstances change, to ensure thorough
protection of due process rights and address potential issues raised in recent court decisions.
CONCLUSION:
Page 81 of 136
A revision of Englewood's current Trespass and Park Ejectment Municipal Code Sections 7-6F-
2 and 11-4-3 is warranted based on recent case law analyzing similar ordinances in other
municipalities. The proposed ordinances have been carefully drafted based on extensive legal
research and analysis to ensure the safety of the public and City employees through a legally-
sound, enforceable method, while correspondingly protecting due process rights of persons
subject to the responses permitted in the ordinance.
FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS:
Should someone ejected or excluded from City property appeal the decision, the City will be
required to pay for the services of an administrative hearing officer to consider the propriety of
the City's action.
CONNECTION TO STRATEGIC PLAN:
Safety: this agenda item is intended to ensure the safety of the public and City employees.
OUTREACH/COMMUNICATIONS:
The City Attorney's Office met with stakeholders, including the City Prosecutor, library
employees, and public safety staff to ensure the proposed legislation meets their goals while
remaining legally enforceable.

Proposed Ordinance Amending The City’s Trespass, Ejectment, and Exclusion Procedures from City Property
Tamara Niles
City Attorney
Kaitlin Parker
Assistant City AttorneyPage 91 of 136
In 1985, City Council adopted the Trespass and Park Ejectment Municipal Code Sections 7-6F-2 and 11-4-3, and they have not been revised since, according to the legislative history contained within MuniCode.
Recent persuasive case law has called into question the enforceability of the City's former practice for removing persons from City property for rule violations, safety concerns, and legal violations.
Specifically, recent court decisions in the Nation, analyzing the constitutionality of municipal ordinances in other cities and towns on ejectment, exclusion and trespass, has indicated the need for revision of Englewood's Trespass and Park Ejectment Municipal Code Sections 7-6F-2 and 11-4-3.See, e.g., The City and
County of Denver v. Troy Daniel Holm, No. 2017CV31066 (District Court, City and County of Denver, Oct. 25, 2017) & Yeakle v. City of Portland, 322 F.Supp.2d 1119 (D. Or. 2004).
Background
Page 92 of 136
The proposed ordinance has been carefully drafted based on extensive legal research, analysis, and input provided from City staff to ensure the safety of the public and City employees through a legally-sound, enforceable method to remove and exclude people from City property for rule violations and legal violations, while providing a robust appeals procedure protective of due process rights.
The proposed ordinance would provide due process rights, protect the safety and welfare of Englewood citizens and employees while on City property, and provide a basis for a lawful prosecution under Section 7-6F-2, by amending Sections 11-4-3 and 7-6F-2 to provide clear and legally-compliant procedures to lawfully remove persons from City property while providing them with an avenue to challenge the removal.
Proposed Ordinance
Page 93 of 136
Englewood Municipal Code Section 7-6F-2 applies to the criminal conduct of unlawfully trespassing onto another’s property.
The proposed amendment of Section 7-6F-2 would expressly indicate that violation of Section 11-4-3 can form the basis for a trespass prosecution under Section 7-6F-2.
Proposed Amendment of Section 7-6F-2 Page 94 of 136
Englewood Municipal Code Section 11-4-3 applies to violations of rules and regulations, and currently authorizes removal of a person from City property under certain circumstances.
The proposed amended Englewood Municipal Code Section 11-4-3 would provide that:
-a person who commits a rule violation or legal violation may receive a verbal warning, ejectment from City property for 24 hours, and/or exclusion from City property for a limited length of time; and,
-pursuant to administrative guidelines, Authorized Officials shall utilize discretion in determining whether to issue an Ejection and/or Exclusion.
Proposed Amendment of Section 11-4-3 Page 95 of 136
The proposed amended Englewood Municipal Code Section 11-4-3 would provide for a comprehensive appeals procedure protective of due process rights, including by:
-providing for an Exclusion from City Property to go into effect 4 days after issuance, unless timely and properly appealed;

COUNCIL COMMUNICATION
TO: Mayor and Council
FROM: Carrie Evenson
DEPARTMENT: Public Works
DATE: January 4, 2022
SUBJECT:
CB 03 – Approval of a Council Bill regarding an Intergovernmental
Agreement with the Mile High Flood District for the Design, Right-
of-Way Acquisition, and Construction of Drainage and Flood
Control Facilities in the South Englewood Basin
DESCRIPTION:
CB 03 - Council approval of a Council Bill regarding an Intergovernmental Agreement between
Mile High Flood District (MHFD) and the City of Englewood for the design, right-of-way
acquisition, and construction of drainage and flood control facilities in the South Englewood
Basin in the amount of $825,000.00 to access matching funds in the amount of $825,000.00
provided by MHFD.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends City Council approve an Intergovernmental Agreement (IGA) between the
Mile High Flood District (MHFD) and the City of Englewood for the design, right-of-way
acquisition, and construction of drainage and flood control facilities in the South Englewood
Basin in the amount of $825,000.00 to access matching funds in the amount of $825,000.00
provided by MHFD.
PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION:
CB #20 (June 1, 2020) - City Council approved an IGA with MHFD to update the City’s Major
Drainageway Plan (MDP) citywide. The results of the updated MDP study will be used by
MHFD and the city to prioritize future stormwater project phasing in the South Englewood Basin
and elsewhere throughout all drainage basins within the city.
SUMMARY:
The proposed IGA between MHFD and the City of Englewood is for the design and construction
of drainage and flood control facilities in the South Englewood Basin. A specific project location
has not yet been selected. Final project selection will be based on the results of the City’s MDP
once it has been completed. The planning, design and construction of this work will be
managed by MHFD on Englewood's behalf if a project not already being managed by the City of
Englewood is selected. City staff will provide project oversight and guidance.
ANALYSIS:
MHFD and the City are currently in the process of completing a citywide MDP & Flood Hazard
Area Delineation (FHAD) for all local drainage basins that originate within city limits. The
Citywide MDP is the drainageway master plan document that MHFD uses to prioritize and
allocate funding for storm drainage improvement projects to the City of Englewood. Having an
updated document not only provides more detailed information and prioritization of future storm
Page 98 of 136
drainage projects but also makes the City of Englewood eligible for MHFD funding for the
improvements recommended in the report.
The South Englewood Basin has been identified as the highest priority basin in the Stormwater
Master Plan and other studies undertaken by the City of Englewood. While the South
Englewood Flood Reduction Project (also known as S1 and S2) and the South Acoma Drainage
Improvement Project (also known as S3 and S4) are currently underway in varying phases of
design and/or construction, other improvements may also be needed to address flooding in this
area. The Citywide MDP will allow the City to make informed decisions regarding future
drainage improvements in the South Englewood Basin, and this IGA will allow the City of
Englewood and MHFD to share costs for drainage and flood control improvements in the South
Englewood Basin at a reduced cost to the City and at a much faster rate than otherwise
anticipated. This funding can be used for any project recommended by the Citywide MDP in the
South Englewood Basin. If an appropriate project is not identified in the South Englewood Basin
or does not require the entire allocated amount, these funds can be reallocated to another
drainage improvement project in another drainage basin within the City of Englewood.
CONCLUSION:
Staff recommends City Council approve an Ordinance for the IGA with MHFD to obtain
$825,000.00 in matching funds for design, right-of-way acquisition, and construction of drainage
and flood control facilities in the South Englewood Basin.
FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS:
The total project funding is $1,650,000.00 for design and construction of the drainage and flood
control improvements.
Funding Source: Contribution:
Mile High Flood District (MHFD) $825,000.00
City of Englewood $825,000.00
The City of Englewood portion of the cost is proposed to be funded from the Storm Drainage
Fund, Fund 42, G/L Account Number 42-1607-61201, Other Improvements, which has sufficient
budget to pay for the City’s share of the cost as shown on the attached Contract Approval
Summary document.
CONNECTION TO STRATEGIC PLAN:
Strategic Outcome: Safety
A city that protects its people, infrastructure and built environment.
• Build, maintain, replace, and fund a quality storm drainage system
• Provide community resiliency against human-made and natural disasters
Strategic Outcome: Sustainability
A city that protects its natural environment
• Stormwater quality
• Consider long-term sustainability in infrastructure
Page 99 of 136
OUTREACH/COMMUNICATIONS:
MHFD and the City will jointly conduct public outreach as necessary during design and
construction of the selected project.

B. Payment for Right-of-Way Acquisition. Following purchase or receipt of executed
memorandum of agreement between CITY and property owner for the needed right-of-way
that commits the property owner to sell property to CITY at a price certain and on a date
certain, CITY shall so advise DISTRICT and request payment as provided above.
DISTRICT shall make payment within 30 days of receipt of request accompanied by the
information set forth above.
C. Ownership of Property and Limitation of Use. PARTIES acknowledge that CITY owns the
property on which PROJECT is constructed either in fee or non-revocable easement and
shall be responsible for same. It is specifically understood that the right-of-way is being used
for drainage and flood control purposes. The properties upon which PROJECT is constructed
shall not be used for any purpose that shall diminish or preclude its use for drainage and
flood control purposes. CITY may not dispose of or change the use of the properties to
diminish or preclude its use for drainage and flood control purposes without approval of
DISTRICT, which shall not be unreasonably withheld.
If, in the future, CITY disposes of any portion of or all of the properties acquired upon which
PROJECT is constructed pursuant to this Agreement; changes the use to diminish or
preclude its use for drainage and flood control purposes of any portion or all of the
properties upon which PROJECT is constructed pursuant to this Agreement; or modifies any
of the improvements located on any portion of the properties upon which PROJECT is
constructed to diminish or preclude its use for drainage and flood control purposes pursuant
to this Agreement; and CITY has not obtained the written approval of DISTRICT prior to
such action, CITY shall take any and all action necessary within their legal authority to
reverse said unauthorized activity and return the properties and improvements thereon,
acquired and constructed pursuant to this Agreement, to the ownership and condition they
were in immediately prior to the unauthorized activity at no expense to DISTRICT.

21-10.08 5
However, CITY shall not be responsible for the actions of third parties that would violate the
provisions of this Paragraph who may have legal rights in the property as long as CITY has
taken reasonable action to stop those actions. In the event CITY breaches the terms and
provisions of this Paragraph 7 and does not voluntarily cure as set forth above, DISTRICT
shall have the right to pursue a claim against CITY for specific performance of this portion
of the Agreement.
DISTRICT may, subsequent to the recording by CITY of any document transferring title or
another interest to property acquired pursuant to this Agreement to CITY, record a
memorandum of this Agreement (Exhibit B), specifically a verbatim transcript of Paragraph
7.C. Ownership of Property and Limitation of Use except for this sub-paragraph which shall
not be contained in the memorandum. The memorandum shall reference by legal description
the property being acquired by CITY and shall be recorded in the records of the Clerk and
Recorder of Arapahoe County immediately following the recording of the document
transferring title or another interest to CITY. CITY authorizes the recording of that
memorandum and acknowledges that the same is meant to encumber the property with its
restrictions.

COUNCIL COMMUNICATION
TO: Mayor and Council
FROM: Tamara Niles
DEPARTMENT: City Attorney's Office
DATE: January 4, 2022
SUBJECT:
CB 53 - Ordinance Amending Municipal Code regarding
Authorized Public Consumption Areas
DESCRIPTION:
CB 53 - After temporarily extending Covid-related public consumption areas, City Council
requested presentation of an Ordinance to amend Municipal Code to permanently provide for
authorized public areas for public consumption of alcohol
RECOMMENDATION:
City Council should adopt an ordinance amending its currently-authorized public consumption
areas, to comply with now-applicable state law that prohibits alcohol consumption on public
rights of way (such as streets, alleys, and sidewalks). If City Council desires to continue
authorized open public consumption, we recommend it be continued only at the City paseos at
this time, as it is a clearly-defined area, the parameters of public consumption can be identified
through signage, and the paseos are located near Englewood Grand, which is the only City
business currently licensed for takeout cocktails. This area is described as Option A in Council
Bill 53. (Option B in CB 53 provides for the current open consumption area excluding the Duck
Pond and rights of way; Option C in CB 53 provides for the current open consumption area
excluding rights of way.)
PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION:
On March 10, 2020 Jared Polis, the Governor of the State of Colorado, declared a statewide
emergency in response to coronavirus (COVID-19); and on March 18, 2020 the City Council of
the City of Englewood in response to coronavirus (COVID-19) passed Ordinance No. 10, Series
of 2020 declaring a public health emergency as authorized by Englewood Municipal Charter §41.
That ordinance granted to the City Manager full power and authority to take certain actions and
issue certain orders to protect the public health, safety, and welfare in the face of the coronavirus
(COVID-19) and thereafter, the City Manager issued two emergency orders authorizing expanded
outdoor consumption of alcohol to allow patrons of alcohol-related businesses to continue to
frequent those businesses but still socially distance. On the 19th day of July, 2021, City Council
adopted Ordinance No. 30, Series of 2021, repealing Emergency Ordinance No. 10, Series of
2020, but continuing authorization for expanded outdoor consumption. After a study session
presentation on this issue, City Council directed staff to prepare an Ordinance permanently
implementing expanded public consumption areas but removing public rights of way as required
by now-applicable state law (which was stayed during Covid under a Governor emergency order).
Upon consideration of the proposed ordinance on November 15, City Council tabled this matter
and directed staff to contact business owners within the proposed public consumption areas to
gauge public support for continued public consumption. Englewood Downtown Development
Page 119 of 136
Authority and the City Communications department created and submitted a survey for business
owners, and the results of that survey were not yet received by the time of agenda publication.
This information will be presented during the meeting.
SUMMARY:
Pursuant to direction of Council at prior meetings, the proposed Ordinance amends Englewood
Municipal Code Section 5-5C-3 to permanently provide for an exception to the City's prohibition
on public possession of open containers of intoxicating liquor by authorizing possession within a
defined area of downtown Englewood. The proposed Ordinance presents several options for
continued public consumption areas, and it also proposes set hours for open public
consumption of noon to 1 a.m.
ANALYSIS:
As presented, the Ordinance codifies the City's extension of authorized public consumption of
alcohol in a defined section of downtown Englewood, but not on public rights of way to reflect
state law's prohibition of alcohol consumption on public rights of ways. The potential defined
areas, shown on the attached map, include the City Duck Pond/Little Dry Creek Plaza, which
recently has been the site of a significant number of criminal incidents but is preparing to
undergo significant changes through a redevelopment construction project. This project is still
in the design phase, and we anticipate it will be approximately 12 months before completion.
The Ordinance also makes slight revisions to style and format of the affected section of EMC.
There is some concern regarding notification to the public, to ensure they do not inadvertently
violate the law by consuming alcohol in public rights of way. In order to respond to this concern,
City Council could consider designating only the City paseos for public consumption and
providing signage to that effect in the paseos. (The paseos also are preparing to undergo
improvement, through a $150,000 Colorado Department of Transportation (CDOT) grant
recently awarded to the Englewood Downtown Development Authority (EDDA)).
CONCLUSION:
City Council should adopt an Ordinance regarding authorized public consumption, to ensure the
City-authorized areas do not conflict with state law prohibiting alcohol consumption on public
rights of way. Where, or if, City Council chooses to continue permanent authorization of public
consumption is a policy decision for Council.
FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS:
No financial implications to City government.
CONNECTION TO STRATEGIC PLAN:
Safety, Local Economy
OUTREACH/COMMUNICATIONS:
The City Attorney met with the owner of Englewood Grand to discuss this matter, as Englewood
Grand is the only business currently licensed in the City for take-out cocktails. EDDA and the
City Communications department contacted other alcohol-licensed businesses within the area
previously authorized for open public consumption.

•As part of Covid-19 City response, City authorized public consumption of alcohol on certain areas of Broadway to allow for social distancing, capacity restrictions
•This authorization was continued in 2021, but then stay on state law prohibiting consumption on public right of way was revoked
•This required City to reconsider where it would allow public consumption, at a minimum to comply with the state right-of-way prohibition
Background Recap
Page 128 of 136
•City Council notified of two comments from businesses within the public consumption areas, recommending public consumption on paseos when purchased from a business licensed to sell takeout cocktails within a specific timeframe
•City Council passed Council Bill 53 on first reading, with the following provisions:
•Public consumption authorized on City Paseos in 3400 block of S. Broadway
•Consumption only authorized for alcoholic beverages purchased from a business licensed to sell takeout cocktails
•Hours of public consumption are unregulated
December 13, 2021 Action
Page 129 of 136
•The following factors supported the Council’s authorization in City paseos:
•Paseos are a defined area, with structures on 2 of 4 sides
•Signage could be posted on both sides of Paseos, notifying public of limitations regarding public consumption (i.e. where alcohol must be purchased, and where consumption is
authorized)
•The only licensee that can currently legally sell takeout cocktails is located near the Paseos
Consumption in Paseos
Page 130 of 136
•On December 14—the day after City Council adopted CB 53—the City Attorney’s Office received additional survey responses on this issue.
•Responses received both from businesses within public consumption areas currently authorized, and members of the public.
•Many respondents seem to advocate for continued consumption on public right-of-way, including streets, alleys and sidewalks, but this is prohibited by state law
•Most respondents were in favor of continued public consumption
Additional Survey Responses
Page 131 of 136
•58 responses, cross-section of business owners in and outside of the downtown district and residents
•10 responses from businesses within the 3200 and 3400 blocks of S. Broadway (where public consumption was previously authorized); 3 of the 10 responses were from businesses previously reported to Council
•76 percent support continued public consumption in areas currently designated
•Additional 8.62 percent support it if exclude Little Dry Creek and/or limit to areas near
businesses permitted for takeout of cocktails
Additional comments range from both extremes: that the City should prohibit public consumption altogether, and expand it to include additional areas
Survey results
Page 132 of 136
•Survey respondents generally like the idea of public consumption, to support local restaurants and bars, and enliven Downtown.
•Many respondents are concerned about including the Little Dry Creek area. There are some concerns about enabling nuisance behavior Downtown.
•Affected businesses have good suggestions about restrictions to manage the policy.
•If the ordinance passes, there will be a need for public education for both businesses and consumers.
•It appears there are some efforts at the state level to remove the state prohibition against consumption in public right-of-way, which would allow the City more discretion.
EDDA Analysis of Survey Results
Page 133 of 136
•Adopt CB53 in the same form as adopted on first reading, limiting consumption to paseos
•Amend CB53 to expand the areas of public consumption, to include the West side of the 3200 Block of S. Broadway, previously authorized for public consumption
•City only has authority to authorize consumption on non-right of way public property
•This area contains no public property affected by CB53, other than right of way
