I l f I Englowood City Council November 02, 2009 Page 2 6 Recognition of Scheduled Public Comment • (a) Police Ch,el Vandermee said good evening Your Honor and members ot Council this Is the tm,rth graduallng class ot the Englewood Police Department CIllzens Academy Th,s ,s something that we started shortly alter the reorganization and the separatoon ol the Safety Services and part of the marketing strategy 1f you will, for the Police Department and that is part of the community pohang that you hear me menuon quite often To date and
1nctud1ng tonights class, there are 78 members of the community whO have graduated , part,cipated 1n the Citizens
Academy Th,s particular Academy was 9 weeks and gives the c1lIzens an opportunity to not only get Information
from but part1c1pate ,n, just abou t every aspect of the Police Department and Its organization, Including fireanms
traIn1ng we have a simulator we don't g,ve them guns and send them out there but I'm sure that they would
have hkl"l that and there are some reslnctJons Nor do we let them dnve the new black and whites they get to do
that In th.: somuldtor as well Of the 78 graduates. t think n 1s worth noting that 25 of those have gone on to become
very act,ve volunteers .. not only ,n the Pohce Department, but for the C,ty. They volunteer with the Neighborhood
Watch Program, the walk to school day and the safety programs ,n the schools. self-defense classes, CERT and I
would also hke to mention that there ,s a number of them , Including one ton,ghl that are City employees ,n other
departments that show an interest ,n the City and as a member of the community ,n parlJCtpating finding out what
goes on ,n other departments Tom Geier ,sour Community Relations Specialist and these classes we would not
see near the level of success, and Tom I don't think knew I was going to say this, but she has to be congratulated
as well for putting these together, countless hours of preparation, coordinating all the Instructors All the Instructors
for the 9 weeks are members or the Police Department Detectives and the traffoc team ,s here tonight ,n support of
Ton, and ,n support or the C1l1zens Academy So this is an organizahonal kind of an event and 11 1s very pleas,ng to
me as the Department Head to see the level of part,c,patoon on the part of the community So wrth that and at this
point. I would like to in troduce the graduates of the fourth Englewood Pohce Deparlment Citizens Academy . As,.

minutes to give these people some well deserved recogmtoon and we will be back 1n May wrth the ldth Academy
graduation Thank you There was af'plause
Mayor Woodwa rd said I just want to add that this ,s a real sense of the community that goes on ,n Englewood as far
as the C111Zen Academy, CERT, Neighborhood Watch tt ,s all starting to come together mo,e and more and ,t just
reinforces our sense or community So. congratulatoons for your parlltlpatoon and the time II took and what you are
domg for our CO!lll"'unrty which strengthens 11 Thank you There was applause.
(b) Je~n LrlsmeIster. an Englewood resident said good evening everyone Thank you for letting me
&1dress you ton,gt.t I am here tonight I've owned a home in Englewood for 13 yeats and I am here to commend
'le Code r ,torcement people They are always professional I always see them patrolhng and I see them place
warnings on 11. rhors of people's houses They are a good team I'd also hke to commend the Police Department
They are a ,cry gOC' J very good Police Department I have lived in LA, San Diego, and San Francisco and I have
dealt with police det•·irMrils This ,s a good one. I also, at this time, would like to commend the Fore Chief,
because he has ti).> firemen work out at the Rec Center and for those of us who watch them work out. 4 IS a
pleasure There was laughter To move on, the reason I am here tonight ,s 1n the 13 years that I have lrved ,n
Englewood, 11 has changed And I would hke to address Ute idea of an overview of what I see of Englewood, but
then a spec•fic1ty my block I have a handout that I am gomg to give to you who do I hand that to? She said ,s
one of you Leigh Ann? Leigh Ann rocks In the Cit y Manager's office Okay, this handout that you are seeing ngh.
now this ,s a handout that 1s the beg1r.n1ng ol the address,ng I have ol the issues Englewood has changed Wh
I look out my bac~yard, across my alley, thrs house and this house of those two houses (pointing to the handout)
consututes 4 p,t bulls When I look out the front, this ,s what you see that ,s directly across the street from me tt is
rather a n,ce hltle house My lnend lived there and he fixed 11 all up, but then s~id ,t and the renters, who now rent

Englo wood City Council November 02. 2009 Pago 3 lhere have 7 of these trash cars The ones you are looking at right now are . 2 or lhem are inoperable and Code Enforcemenl gives them warnings all the lime There are 3 ,n the back yard You will notice one of these In the front of the 4 ,n fru,nt taking up all the park,og space os a hearse Every day of my life I see a hearse across the street The people, these people, the man who loves there he dresses like Etvis I don't know what that ,s about the greasy hair and tattoos and Elvis And I lhonk rt s a genre catle1 Rock-a-BIiiy And then rt leads to this car th in g. they are ,n IOve wI1h these cars I have a Masters Dl'gree in theatre and I love costuming, but there are only two places for It . on stage and at Halloween Anyway, this man has a costume on every day of his hie and
he's got this car thing going down I don't know what to do about the fact that these people don't care They don 't
care They don't care what they do They don't care about these cars We the cI11zens who do follow the Code
we woll keep dou,g il We will. we won ltve our ,ntegnty yes, we won keep berng good citizens, but we are getting
bitter We are gelling brtter The pot bulls and tl>e constant barking dogs and the reason that I'm here ,s 10 talk
about how Code Enforcement is being undermined They are being hobbled or sabotaged or muzzled or whatever
words you want to use. but these people are being sabotaged They g,ve warning , after wa rning. after warning,
after warning What we need l o do is give a waming and then nail them with a summons that make them hurt ,n a
big way fonanc,ally The warning and the wamIng and the mollycoddlongs afraid that we w,11 perhaps offend them.
they offend me every day of my bfe I am now gong to hand out a second handout and I apologoze Thos os a very
bad p,cture, but n was from last night where one of the fnends of Mr Elvis puOed up with a big pickup and had ,n
the baek of h,s large trailer, had his brand new crap trash car to show his fnend You will notlee when you look al 11
thal one of the ugly cars on the left Is one of his 7 11 is parked ,n lronl of my house so that my friends and fami ly
ca n't park In front of my house because they're J>arked ,n front of my house But lhen you'll note that lhe Elvis
boys. they're all dressed alike You can see that. yes. okay The Elvrs boys are sland1n9 there fondhng this car
They are looking al ,1 and they are about 15 minutes looking at this car The trailer ,s bk>ckrng Washington Streel
blocking my driveway and blocking the driveway of my neighbor They look at th,s car and fondle 11 for about 15
minutes and then they leave They go In his house and to lhe backyard to fondle more cars back there leaving a rig
in the middle of South Washington Street lor 20 minutes They don·t care They have no c111zenshlp. That ,s why I
am here. You will also note, I just have to say th,s, you will note, forgive me for lhe very bad quality of these
pictures on this page, but the house to the left i f you will notice ,n !heir driveway nearest to you. to your eyes a
normal car, but beyond that, hard lo see, but tt ,s a ~ttle green Studebaker Thal lltle green Studebaker was parked
there , mperable and has never moved the 13 years that l'Ve lrved., my house I've looked at that Studebaker
every cay for 13 years How many years ,1 was there before I bought my house, I don't know But I think that these
!)e()ple are moving more and more 10 Englewood and th,s car thing has three households on my block who are now
doing this car trash thing . One of the COde Enforcement officers told me there rs a guy down the street who owns
12 of these crappy cars taking up all the parking It has Just got lo change Am I disgusted with Code
Enforcement? Not at all, they are Just the nicest people They are lrylng, but this warning and mollycoddhng, so I
am here and I Just ask ,s tt the Ci1y Councll who doesn't lei them get tough? Is 11 the Ci1y Attorney? Is II the
Mayor? Whoever ,s keep1n& 'hem from doing a hard ~ne . I1 os affect,ng our Crty They need to be able to give a
wor1d of hurt lo these people I,,. thinking lhal, I love ducks by the way. and if were to say, I want lo have 5 ducks
in my backyard . I wish I could have 5 ducks, I love ducks Gosh ducks are great I couldn't do It, could I? I can't
have ducks In my backyard But the p,t bulls are everywhere These terrible car trash cars are everywhere And
so. I guess what I would hke to say. ,s thal I'm heartbroken I f,naiy bought a htlle house I finally own a htUe house
with hardwood floors and I'm really proud and my p,operty value os really on trouble because would you buy a
house wrth a hearse across the street should I ever to choose to sell I am heartbroken and you can tell that rm
angry Wh at I would toke to say rs that I come he re with respect, but my message ,s a pass10nate one I want it to
be passionate I want 1I to be a strong message to catalyze strcr,~ action Let Code Enforcement gel awful ugly
wllh these people Thank you
Mayor Woodward said thank you
(c) Jackie Edwards, an Englewood resident. said good even,ng Thank you for this opportunity to
speak thi s evening I'm here to talk about Medical Mariiuana. also known as Medical Cannabis, whole Eng lewood's
moratorium on dispensaries Is In place I am a chronic pain and illness pahenl and also a patient advocate To
avoid Englewood s involvement m cosily toI 1ga110n. I would like 10 see the moratorium extended until enough fac1s
are gathered for the Coty 10 make educated and informed pollCleS Amendment 20 10 the Colorado Constrtubon was
approved by Colorado voters 1n November 2000 and became effective m July 2001 8-1/2 years taler Englewood
needs to gel up-to-date and deal mlelhgenlly with Amendment 20 ,ssues The people of Englewood deserve lo
have educated and informed people drall,ng med ical cannabis ordinances and codes Medoc~I cannabis Is a
Englewood C lly Council Nov ember 02, 2009 Page 4 • legmmalc medtCal field The way !hat Nancy Reid verbally 1nIerpreted Amendment 20 made a bungled·up mess of lhe Amendment I'm refe rring to the C1ly of Englewood's webs1Ie audio record ing of lhe SepIember 9, 2009 Plano,ng and Zonmg Comrrussoon meeI,ng She aealed a s1tuatoon where lhe Comm1s510ners had 10 listen 10 her personal, preIud1ced al!ltude for a hatt-hour without her acluany presenting Amendment 20 01 its facts That Is eg regious and complelely irrespons,ble II only lakes 15 mInuIes lo read ColOrado's Amendment 20 and the applocalJOn forms f01 medoeal maniuana Amendmenl 20 was amended again lhen 01 probably. I guess, for lhe first time, ,n July of this year and went into effect Augusl 30., of lhtS year lo try to clarify the primary caregiver issue and 111s sltll really confusing For ln slance, there ar .. many kinds of caregivers . Not all caregivers grow or se ll
medoeal cannabis Some are home heallh workers who are auth011zed to ptcie up medicine 101 their patients
Others may grow the med,c,ne with or without charge to their patients Some caregivers are parents of minor
patienls and may or may not grow medIc1ne for thetr minor child. The re are caregivers who have put their own lives
on hold 10 care for aging parents The<e are people In nurs,ng homes that need a caregiver to access medicine lor
lhem Why Is Englewood requInng l,cens,ng for primary caregivers when these caregr.,ers are not necessanly
growing or selling medical cannabis? Why on earth does a parent or a home health worker, neighbor, friend, or
relative have to be licensed by the City lo merely acquire the legal medical cannabis on behalf of a legal patient?
Ord you think you were l,cens1ng only commercial enterpnses? The purpose of idenllfylng caregivers on Colorado s
Med ical Manjuana Registry is to protect the caregiver, sh ould the caregr,er be detained or arrested by pol,ce and
need to prove thetr leg itJmacy The Reg1slry is confidenttal If you read Amendment 20, you will see that You are
try,ng to force caregivers to waive their confldentiahty protec:IJon under Amendment 20 of the Colorado Constitution
or else face penalties. No one ... no City has the nght to do that Whal Is a city that requtres parents to be
l,censed to provide a legal drug or medical treatment for their children? Or to requ ire an in itial S31 5.00, lhen a
$250 00 annual fee from caregivers who legitimately serve their patients, but do not grow or sell medical cannab,s?
That's not eve n sound thinking Nor does II uphold the health and welfare of anyone In any way In fact , that pol,cy
further penahzes some disabled people and Is d1scriminaI0 ry Do you reqwe hcenses for careg ivers who pick up
and deliver other legal medtCtnes for lhew pa~ents? Has Englewood Interpreled Amendment 20 to mean thal au A
pnmary ca regivers are growers and/or dispensers? Thal Is an ir.correct assumption Legally, a patient may eve,w
grow their own medicine Since pat,enls are allowed only 1 primary caregiver at a lime. there Is no way to
substantiate a requ11emen1 lhal all dispensary employees be caregivers That someone works at a dispensary
does not necessarily mean they are a grower or a pnmary caregr,er Look al ~ this way when you go to the
doct01 you want your doctor to be licensed However, the off,ce staff, cuslod1a l crew and olher support personne l
are not generally l,censed The same applies to your pharmaasl Allhough lhe pharmacist ,s required to have a
license. every emplOyee ,n the store does not have 10 be a l,censed pharmacist Med,cai cannabis Is a legibmate
medical held and deserves to be treated as such There are a mulhtude of s,ck people who fi nd their quaht,es or life
11rproved by ,ngesl,ng med,cal cannabis Al drugs, even over-the-counter and o the< herbal remedies, carry nsks
and lhe potential for abuse That does nol mean thal all people who use drugs are guilty of abusing them 01 lhal all
drugs are bad Englewood needs to take lhe tome to undersland lhe Amendment and the consequence s of any
1ules the Cily ,nshlls The Amendment was wntten lo provide safe access lo medical cannabis by leg al patients
and !heir caregivers The Information Enn dnd I presented ,n our study packet for you this even ,ng IS only a smaW
sampling of th e enormous amount or to p,cs concerning medical cannabis therapy and the industry. Currenl news
states thal medoeal cannabis IS lhe faslest growmg industry In Colorad,·, So, It Is proJetled to bring In substantial
amounls of sales tax Because of this, there are resources that vartOUs, >lorado mun1C1palrties are bu1ld1ng
togelher to make informed, sensible dec1s1ons For example, there is lhe l.olorado Medical Cannabis Pol,cy Group,
of WhtCh EngleNOOd could be a part We could use resources around lhe Metro area and Slale for educahon about
medical cannabis. Amendment 20 Interpretall0n and policy I would hke to propose that y,,u form an Englewood
Medical Cannabis Task Force or Comm1llee The group would research. coordinate and address issues revolving
around medlC8I cannabis busmesses and their impact on Englewooo neighbOlhoods. The •ask force or commlnee
would need people from the public. the C~y and people who WOik on the medoeal caMab1s 1...:1, among others The
tas k force or comm1llee would have to stay informed and educaled to be able lo progressively a.:tdress concerns or
Englewood and Its neighborhoods , as relates to medical cannabis A process cou ld be organIied lhat would allow
this task force 01 commI11ee to report regularly lo the City and olher interested parties One of the Planning and
Zoning Co mm,ss,oners summed up the Amendmenl 20 top,c perfectly, toward the end or their October 20"
meellng He said something lo th~ order of "the whole thing's a can or worms ' II ls Well said Particularly wh .
important policies are to be made By using an educated and ,nformed poltey maloog process legitimate medtta
cannabis pauents and their primary caregivers would be able 10 safely and peaceably access med,cme. according
to ColOlado's Amendm ent 20 Legal medica l cannabis fac1l1ltes would be free lo peaceably run their bu sinesses

Englewood City Council November 02, 2009 P,go 5 ,n states where medical mari1uana 1s legal We have the opponumty to be pohcy le3ders ,n our State and It would serve Englewood's people well by sc,zong thts opportunity In Englewood we have Swedish Hospital a top-notch trauma center We have a varie ty ol medical alternat,ve, Integrat,ve rellab1l1tat1ve . and health lac11it1es in Englewood We have Craig Hospital working with people who are disabled We have velerans and other cI t12ens who suffer with deb11itat1ng Illnesses and pain Many of the peop le frequenting these fac1l1t1es are also legal medical cannabis pa1Ients Are disabled peop le 1nctud1ng velerans who fought for freedom and their caregivers now an isolated targeted group in this City? It Is a bog mistake to have any pohcy that Interferes wItn legal patients' access
to medicine People who are on foxed incomes and low•oncome caregivers do not have 11xtra money to buy
expensive licenses to simply access a tega l drug Also legal patients may change careg,vers at any tome Are
legal pa11en1S 10 g,ve the Ctty a few hundred dollars every hme they change caregivers 1f the new t.i1,19Iver ,s not

Joctors and for nurses to continue their educa tJOn they have to do so much education a year for their continuIn9
educatJOn and this is lhe only accredited course r,ght now Yale and Harvard and everyone else hasn't really
jumped on board yet But there ts an 1ncred1ble amount of 1nlormat1011 out there that cannabis is medicine and I am

your skin There can be no d1scnm1nat10n ror anyone who Is disabled They should have the same opportunity 10
choose where they ltve ju hke anybody else This ,s my understanding or HUD That Is point number one II I am
,n error ol lh1s. I would appreciate a conecbon on lhos. because so far when I go into the web. when I go onto the
web on Denver to look about theor housing srtuatoon. everything Is very, very out there When I look at Awora d IS
out there When I look at • lewood on the web I see one face page no onronna11on So I am coming lo you ror
that explanaltOO Then I he anothe< po<nl to put lo you and this Is from the HUD Federal Registry Volume No
110 commenlong about the ... ~ or an assooat,on or an organization of tenants within these facihltes II
specifically states that this ,s an independent asSOC1at10n that Is meant to be more or less a checks and balances
w,th ,11anag~ment We have a problem at S,mon Center ar,d the Simon Center that I have been trying to correct
this problem. I get letters back from the attorney th at represents Englewood Housing telhng me that our current
President or the Assoc,at,on. although HUD says th is ,s an ,llega l organIza t,on because of th is. has bee n acting a~
both Presi dent, secretary. treasurer and whal was the ~ther one .. I th ink that was It.. for a period or time until
replacements came forward, We have a Pres ident who has been in office now for over a year. who is an employee
or Englewood Housing. I was told by Englewood Housing that she ,s not a direct employee that she Is an agent
under contract. I got a copy of the contract to see what her duties were And accord ing to HUD, It says r,ghl
here let me get that page according to HUD ,t even menttons that no employee or agent. does not have the nght
to even attend a meeting let alone hold offoce unless they ar e invited in to perhaps present an issue Th,s has been
an ong01ng problem "°" and we have a problem because our President seems to feel that eve<y decision that os
quesbonable or any dec,i, ~n L~al we wanted 10 do or any processes that we wanted to do as an orgamzat10n.
needs to be venf.ed t U,e Adm1mstrator And the Admonostrator. of course. Is hored by management and sllould
actually have no concern wrth anything that IS 90mg on or any decos,ons that we make as an orgamzat,on I bnng
11115 to you. these are the problems. And I also resent a.nolher factor. There ,s representat10n or only one person.
although we have two buddings and I would say we have about 250 tenants. and the representaI10n IS always from
Orchard Place I have studied everything that HUD has to offer and I have also studied the manual that d<rects
management and how they are supposed to respond to tenants as well as tenants to management And I don't see
where an elected situat,on Is a good representat,on 1, any case , I don't care what level II Is Furthermore there is
no represe ntalton from each bu1tdIng equally And I also feel that there should be no representalton from anybody
who Is on the Council at Englewood Hou sing Adm1nostrallon, That should be purely somebody who can really be
object,ve and understand th e siluat,ons that are Involved Than k you for your t,me

Iha! it ,s his Intent, due lo some legal and financial constraints, that the opportunities for spinning the operations of the County Humane Society off to a new operator or a new board of directors Is not feasible and the Intention of the custodian al this polnl In time, as I mentioned to Counctl at the last Study Session, 1s to sell the name of the Colorado Humane Society and other related assets. but
not to continue operations of an ammal shelter Over the pasl several months, the City's staffs, of the cities of
Englewood and LrtUeton. have worked with the custodian and with other interested parties ,n llymg 10 find an
allernative solubon for animal sheltering for our two crties. as wel as the surrounding communrties Mr Nici< Fisher,
who has tw,ce presented to Crty Counc,t. h8$ stepped fOtWard and established a new non-profit organizaboo wrth a

sheltermg. At Study Sess10n, Council was presented with the Littleton agreement, whlCh the City or Uttleton has
approved There are some changP.s In this agreement, however, you·n find It very slmUar to the Lrttleton
agreemenl It ,s a one year agreement wi r the potential for extenS10n of lour additional years The annual rate 1s
$50,000 00 for services, which Is very slm1J3r to the current rate that we are paying Colorado Humane
Society actually that rate is about $46,500.00 We also have add itional expenditures related to the fac1hty thal we
own Council mentioned a rew things last time. at the last Study Sess,on when Mr. Fisher was present. mcluding
,ssues related to reimbursement or funds for the City In the event lhat the Humane Society did not perform. Those
have been incorporated ,nto the agreement We mad~ some changes ,n the insurance p1 ovls1ons, based on the
1nstruct10ns or our Risk Manager The rest of the agreement remains relal ively similar The Issues ol lOcatlon or
the Humane Society fac1hty, ard approval by the City of that IOcaUon, are addressed ,n the second resolution , 11 (c)
(n) If you have any questions on the IM1al agreement ror sheltenng services, I can etther answer those or Mr •
F ,sher ,s here this evening to provide answers as well
Mayor Woodward asked d there were any quesbons for Mike on 11 (c) (i)
Mayor Woodward said I have one and that would be, does our agreement. this new proposed agreerrenL are there
any less In lhe way of seMCes than what we currently have? Deputy City Manager Flaherty replied no In fact.
there are some advantages to this agreement We have had difficulty in the past with ColOrado Humane Sooety on
treatment of animals that have been brought lo the shelter ,njured and those are addressed to our satisfaction in
this agreement Mayor Woodward said okay
Mayor Woodward said anybody else?
Council Member Moore sa,d excuse me, Mike but could you clarify how the Councll's concerns at the last Sludy
'3ess1on were addressed? Can you point me to lhe seclJOns where the contract was changed? Deputy City
Manager Flaherty replied the section that Is the pr1marlly change although there was some lesser changes
througllout Section 3 3 has been changed somewhat and Secbon 3 6 has been added That is a new sectron
Counc,I Member Jefferson asked whlCh one addresses the IOcatron, Deputy C t • l,ldnager Flaherty said that ,s
addressed 1n the next agreement Council Member Jefferson ~ard okay
Council Member Moore said so I guess and that's what I thought My concern .ioout 3 6 was ,ust whether or
not Sect10n 3 2 slMI seems to be unilateral terminabon strll seems to give the abllrty of either party to walk away
with 90 days notice Deputy City Manager Flaherty said and that's ident,cal lo the Lllllelon agreement and 1t is also
identical to our pr10t agreement w1lh Colorado Humane Socie', I don't think either party Intends to walk away. but
at the same lime, we both have that nght to do so
Council Member Moore said and then when we I didn't see any further ties associated directly with the capital •
contnbut,on Is that correct? This 1s all we have on prolecling our invcstmenl Deputy City Manager Flaherty sa1
correcl J 6 addresses lhal 1n part The remaining assurances or some additional assurances are provided ,n the

curren lly located on our property on Sou th Platte River Drive? Deputy City Manager Flaherty said we are In a
month-to-month w,th Colorado Humane Soe.ety We can basically cancel at any time, If 1hr don't cancel fnt It a.
my understanding that as soon as the sa;• ~qs been completed, although the custodian said lhal he wW nol leav•

Mayor Woodward said JUSI to ment1011 some of the things that Crty CounCII, over the months. have been looking at
with help lrom siaff wha1 11 would mean to go to or r,nd another fac1l1ty I don 't think a pe rmanent type ol fac1l1ty
has been 1denlif1ed, bul temporary facihlies !hat have been iden1,ned would mean that we would be moving Code
Enforcement people out of the City and traveling some distance to dehver antma and then com,r,g back to the
City So Code Enforcement Officers would be out of lhe City during that time Nol to men110n that If a crt12en was
going to claim an animal, they would have to be leaving the City As I reca ll , it's probably a minimum of 15 miles
was the closest. as I recall 12 10 15 miles. which would certain ly not be 1n the best interests of our c11>zens. I
wouldn't think So those are some of the things that have gone through this thought process and lhe d1SCuss1011s
that we have had regarding this And that ,s why this San1a Fe corridor 1s an Important corndor for us to keep our
Code Enforcement people righ t here

Mayor Woodward said I would like to mention that the BID has. I think. in thlS past year. which has Ob\110\Jsly been
a very difficult economic year for not only businesses In Englewood, but businesses everywhere. In fact maybe
Englewood has done better than most cities. The BID has been able to provide some things that have really
Improved the area, In my opinion, and that has lo do with the planters, the sculptures, the art work, flowers And In
lhe short time th at they have been here, they have certainly do ne some nice work. I gel comme nts and hear
comme nts from different people ... cltlzens ... throughout the City an d try to make It clear thal, no, It wasn't lhe City of

$1 ,000 00, which Is In our Council budget, Is cenalnly a reasonable number and heanng earlier where you're

•
Amendment #1 Ameresco has performed a high level assessment a~ to the feasibility of the City buildings supporting solar photo voltaic arrays and providing various amounts of electricity at multiple City sites. Ameresco understands the City's interest in participating in receiving and purchasing , for City uses, renewable energy from these PV sources. In addition, Ameresco has preliminarily consulted with the City regarding the City's options of entering into a Power Purchase Agreement
(PPA). The PPA arrangement will entail Ameresco owning and operating the PV
system , and allows the City to purchase this renewable electric commodity . The
cost of the commodity is to be determined! during the detailed development and
design phase .
In order for the City to get the best information and analysis of this renewable
opportunity Ameresco must perform more in-depth analysis of existing conditions,
develop and design the PV system , and work with the City to negotiate a power
purchase agreement (PPA),
Ameresco shall be the City's sole source provider for the complete investigation ,
design, development, and implementation of a PV system ; this with the expectation
that the City will w0rk in good faith effort to negotiate and enter into a Power
Purchase Agree,, .ant with Ameresco .

reconciliation shall place reasonable "real-world" limits on potential savings. Propose
adjustments to the baseline for energy and water saving measures that shall be implemented in
the future.
d. For facilities constructed and occupied r rior to July I, 2005, establish the actual FY 200512006
baseline ut;lity conswnption and compare 10 the EPC base year consumption. Document,
