Consideration of Minutes of Previous Session (a) COUNCIL MEMBER OLSON MOVED, AND COUNCIL MEMBER WILSON SECONDED, TO APPROVE THE MINUTES OF THE REGULAR CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF JANUARY 20, 2015 . • Vote results: Ayes : Council Members Yates , Mccaslin , Wilson, Penn, Jefferson , Olson Nays : None Abstain: Council Member Gillit Englewood City Council February 2, 2015 Page 2 Motion carried. 6 . Recognition of Scheduled Public Comment (a) Drew Gaiser, an Englewood resident , addressed Council on the Englewood Fire Department options . His comments from the previous meeting were that he has not worked for any of the options nor has he applied with any of them . Of the three options proposed, only one appears to have been researched. What he wants to see is a side by side comparison from all three options . It will better educate the citizens and avo id any misinformation. There is human capital involved with training and learning with the firefighters . Going to Denver will make the firefighters start over. He would like to know what the Englewood firefighters would like to do . (b) Cassandra Letkomiller, an Englewood resident , addressed Council on the Englewood Fire Department options. She is an RN . She does not want to go to Denver because of Denver Health and not because of Denver Fire . She addressed the system status management with the ambulance float. Floating is okay for non-emergency only . If Fire and EMS are separate, there is a lack of continuity . If they go with Denver, there is lack of coverage, a delay in care, private ambulances respond and Englewood firefighters lose the ability to be paramedics . (c) Ida Mae Nicholl , an Englewood resident, addressed Council on the Englewood Fire Department options . She believes going with Denver is our best option to help maintain the level of control. She appreciates the information coming from Mr. Keck . She is concerned about the identity of the city for generations to come due to the poor management of the budget. Her husband was the Arapahoe County Commissioner who believed in the availability of officials . He worked on many projects for the betterment of the County . (d) James Jordan, an Englewood resident, addressed Council on the Englewood Fire Department options . He was on the Englewood Fire Department 50 years ago before moving onto other opportunities. He would love to see Englewood as a stand-alone, but it is too expensive to keep . He is concerned for the firefighters, but money is still tight. Other departments also need work . The situation has been ignored for many years . The citizens have a responsibility in this as well. Denver has good equipment and response time . He is disappointed because he didn't think this would ever happen . (e) Dennis Witte, an Englewood business owner, addressed Council on Englewood Fire Department options . Although he saw emotions from the speakers, decisions need to be made based on facts. We need to have a good comparison for all of the options . Misinformation is out there. It is a lower risk to go to Denver. The media would be all over the story if the services in Denver were as bad as being discussed . Denver would provide more resources . 7 . Recognition of Unscheduled Public Comment (a) Gary Richardson, an Englewood resident, supports the stand alone . He has 25 years of experience with the Englewood Fire Department. He is against going to Denver. There appears to be confusion between the information sources . Are the buildings safe or not? Once it's gone, we are not going to get it back . (b) Michael Cinkosky, an Englewood resident , feels outsourcing is neglect. No one wants to pay more taxes , but many are willing to do so . Many people have voiced support to preserve the Fire Department. He said put a bond issue on the ballot and let the citizens decide . (c) Steven Todd , an Englewood resident , said that no argument was made that a paramedic would arrive later. He talked about the preservation of life , liberty and property. He supports a bond issue by going to a ballot in November. • • ( d) Laura Anne Cleveland, an Englewood resident , stated that she is an ER charge nurse . If we go to Denver, firefighters will have to go through the Academy regardless of their rank . The Denver system wouldn 't • work . Cheaper is not better when it involves lives . ... - • • Englewood City Council February 2, 2015 Page 3 (e) Amy Sposato, an Englewood business person , stated that there needs to be personal responsibility for citizens. Englewood needs to change . The lack of revenue is why Englewood is losing the Fire Department. She is against higher property taxes . City Council and City Planners are stagnant. Englewood needs a vision . Englewood doesn 't have the bus inesses to draw people in to spend their money and increase revenue. (f) Lorraine Cahill , an Englewood resident, stated there is a lot of mis information to the citizens . Closing the Fire Department is a band -aid to fix part of the City's problems . Poor management has the budget in poor shape . There are a lot of questions, but no answers . Why not let the citizens decide their own fate? Put the issue on a ballot. (g) Richard Burton , an Englewood resident and former City employee , said he was struck by lightning and the Englewood paramedics saved his life . Time is of the essence . Englewood is unique in that , the firemen are in the community and involved with the community. Denver will not do this . Have a ballot go before the citizens and then see what happens . (h) Joe Solis , an Englewood resident , reminded people that Englewood was thriving during the Cinderella C ity days , but the downtown area doesn 't currently draw people . What happens if we can't get our act together? Will the police move next and then the rest of the City? South Metro is a viable option . (i) Brenda Hubka , an Englewood resident , lives next to the fire station . She appreciates the consideration of the firemen when using sirens . Cinderella C ity was not replaced with The Streets of Southglenn . The taxes wouldn 't be that high . Council should revisit with South Metro or consider a bond issue . U) Jess Gerard i, an Englewood resident , said he would like to keep the Fire Department in Englewood . He hasn 't talked with one person who wants the Fire Department to leave . Even if the department leaves, the problem is not being solved. He recommends having a bond issue . (k) Jerry Jarrett, an Englewood resident and former employee with the Englewood Fire Department, said don 't go to Denver as it's not the best service . You get what you pay for. The previous Council did not do their job. It's not the Fire Department's fault that they don 't have any money; it's the City 's fault. Denver would try to take over the entire city if the Fire Department goes to Denver. We will regret it if we go to Denver. (I) John England, an Englewood resident , said we should retain control of the Fire Department and the emergency response . (m) Ralph Faragone , an Englewood resident, has 33 years firefighter experience in Ohio , which faced similar issues to Englewood 's problems . The budget is not easy. He told the City Council to run the City the best way you can with your resources . (n) Stephanie Adams, an Englewood resident , said the presentation did not have a lot of options . The pros and cons were missing . The real issue is finances. Once outsourced , you usually can 't get it back. Utilize the talent and energy in this room . (o) Kris Clay, an Englewood resident, said she would be affected by the Tejon station closing . How can Denver promise us what they don 't provide the ir own City? In her experience , Denver's time response was lacking as well as the knowledge of C ity locations . At Denver Health , you are a number. At Swedish, they are compassionate and personally ca re. Council responded to Public Comment. City Manager Keck said I want to thank everyone for coming out, again, to express your thoughts and feelings • about what is transpiring here . Let's go back to one month ago when the presentation was made. I th ink it was very unfair to have stated that not all options were vetted properly. I appreciate Mr. Drew Gaiser's questions and concerns, however; if he had come to me , I would have been more than happy to explain what actually transpired . I think it is important for the public to know that I have spent time with South Metro. I have visited with their chief, Englewood City Council February 2, 2015 Page4 met with their former chief last year, met with their new chief and met with their CFO . I have communicated with them several times. I have visited with many other stations and seen their operations, so I am familiar with their EMS based system . My career has been in communities that have had EMS based systems, an integrated system, as has been discussed tonight. I am familiar with other systems that involved the two-tiered systems . They are just as successful, as well, with their care . What has been mentioned tonight about an apples to apples comparison is simply not accurate again . We are asking Denver Fire and Denver Health to change their models, specifically to fit the needs here in Englewood . The one thing that I will say is that I am very concerned for our personnel as well. This is not a decision that is being made because we have incompetent folks. The firefighters, EMT's and paramedics that we have today have done an outstanding job . This is not a question of their ability, their competency or their work. As a matter of fact, over the past four months, I have been able to get very close with them, and had the opportunity to meet with them on a one on one basis as well as in small groups . I count many of them as friends. So to have to come forward to make a recommendation to the Council to make a change is very, very difficult. It is not one that has been made looking strictly at the bottom line; it is one that has been made looking at the sustainability of the City . City Manager Keck said the fact of the matter is that to get your arms around the City that seemingly seems small, it is complex . One thing that is true, given the time that I have spent with South Metro , Denver Fire and even Littleton Fire and Rescue ... that was another option that we were given. We looked at that and vetted that. I did not want to confuse or muddy the water with this particular Council. I wanted to bring forth the three solutions that seemed the most viable . And yes, Englewood Fire was one of those options and whether or not we could fund them appropriately to ensure that they would be able to move forward with a sustainable future . The fact of the matter, ladies and gentlemen, and again no fault of our people, EMS, firefighters/paramedics ... we are a small department. Small departments struggle with their own internal resources to make things happen . We can build firehouses all day long . That is the easy part. Let's talk about 0 & M, Operations and Maintenance . As was annunciated tonight, this community does struggle with respect to businesses that we have . It's not for any lack of effort on our business people here . What has happened is that the rest of the world developed and as it has been stated tonight too , the world has changed around us and we haven't been able to change with it. We have had a recession . This community is still struggling with a recession . I have been a resident for three weeks and have spoken to several of my neighbors to get their temperature . They wanted to know who I was and what I was doing . It hasn't been an easy road . To talk about the three-quarter ambulance that the gentleman brought up and how many ambulances are we really going to be getting , nobody wants one and three-quarter ambulances. Nobody understands what that is . What that means is one full time am .bulance and one for 10-12 hours a day depending upon the shift that is needed . I understand very clearly ... this Council has made it clear to me that I need to go back to Denver Health and Denver Fire with the contract and ask for two ambulances . They are committed to doing that. They are dedicated . Understanding again people's concern about being uncovered ... what happens when Denver has a huge event? They have 39 stations and 1000 personnel a day. That is a lot of resources . I have been pouring over statistics, looking through 240 pages of call data . You are concerned with response times of nine minutes. With dedicated ambulances, we are going to have the same response time . I have found in 2014 that we had incidents with response times over eight minutes for an ambulance . We can't guarantee that there may be a paramedic on a rig. We are going to look at sustainability and liability of our department. I think that the question as to whether Denver is unsafe or safe has already been answered . Those tonight have supported the EMS system, but the research I have recently read indicates that the two-tiered system works extremely well. If it is designed well, and thought through well ... and again we are not putting forth something that is not going to be model that could not work for Englewood . There is also the concern about Denver annexing Englewood and I am very conscious of history and where from whence we 've come. I think it is a little bit far-fetched to think that if we have somebody else come in to contract for one service or another, that then opens the door for someone to come in and steal our water rights . That is ridiculous . That is our heritage. You want to talk about something that is our identity. That is Englewood. We have water that we sell to others. We are going to continue to do that. That helps with income to do other things . • • Finally, it was indicated that we could perhaps look at sales tax . An excellent suggestion Mr. Gerardi, in that • sales tax was looked at as a potential, viable option to raise . If we look at what businesses already have to charge for sales tax, Englewood is at 3.5%, Littleton is 3%, and Sheridan is 3-3 .5%. If we raise our sales tax, people will not want to shop in Englewood . Sales tax is also regressive, so that means it has a disproportionate • • • Englewood City Council February 2, 2015 Page 5 higher impact on people who are less affluent or living in poverty. Englewood is 53% rentals . We do have 75- 80% free or discounted lunches at our schools. We are going to ask the residents to pay more in taxes for food or other items that they may need? I can't , with good conscious , put that forward . Sales tax is also not an issue that underwriters or bond financ ial advisors look at very favorably . As a matter of fact , they will discount you . Sales tax is volatile in nature. Look back at the recession to find out what is going on . The best efforts of our economic development are still stymied exactly by what the owner of the smoke shop said . Millennials don 't do barter and trade. People don 't pay sales tax on the internet. We need more businesses out there . The passion of the residents and concern of those in the medical field service , thank you. As we have annunciated very clearly and loudly , the contract with Denver Fire and Denver Health, we will not allow them to be running their patients to Denver General. They are going to want to stay in ou r community , because they are dedicated ambulances . T hey belong here. They will be assigned to Englewood . We do not want to be uncovered . 8 .
