Englewood City Council July 18, 2007 Page3 11 . Ordinances, Resolution and Motions (a) Approval of Ordinances on First Read ing (i) Director Black presented a recommendat ion from the Parks and Recreation Department to adopt a bill for an ordinance authorizing a Contract for Deed for the purchase of Duncan Park located at 4846 South Pennsylvania Street between the City of Englewood and Arapahoe County School District No . 1 (Englewood Schools). He said the City of Englewood and the Englewood Schools entered into a lease agreement for the Duncan property in 1978 . At that time, the lease of that property was for the property and also the building on the site. In 1984 that agreement was amended and the building was taken back over by the School District. However, the City of Englewood continued to maintain Duncan Park and has since that time period. Duncan is one of the only parks in that quadrant of the City. As through our Master Plan, if you recall , if that location was removed from a park, that whole area would be vacant. .. we would not have a park in that quadrant of the City. As part of the agreement, the School District will retain the ownership and the rental of the building on the site . The agreement runs through December 31, 2010 . The agreement allows for the City to apply for grants which, as you know, we have already received $250 ,000.00 from Arapahoe County. We will be applying for a grant from Great Outdoors Colorado later this year . And as we receive those grants, and the agreements are approved through the Council and the County and Great Outdoors Colorado, then that money will be transferred over to the School District at that time. What's good about this Contract for Deed for the City is that it does allow the City time to accumulate funds through the end of 2010 in order to pay off the property. The purchase price for the property was 1.2 million dollars. We currently have $200,000 .00 allocated in the Open Space Fund for property acqu isition and for matching funds for grants that are out there . A question was asked awhile back by Council about Share Back Funds from Open Space and those funds can be used for property acquisit ion as well . Over the last 6 to 9 months or so, you have seen a number of people before th is Council and the School Board has seen a number of people , as well , requesting that the two parties work together to keep that as a community park. And from the people that I have talked to, they are absolutely delighted that the City and the School District was able to come to an agreement on the purchase and sale of this property. He sa id I would be happy to answer any questions that you might have . Mayor Wolosyn asked if there were any questions for Jerrell . Council Member Barrent ine sa id I am so impressed by the commun ity coming together like they did . I spent two days at the County Clerk's office research ing every one of those parcels . I talked to the Assessor. I was impressed by how th is commun ity was built up in the early 1950s when that school was bu il t and us mainta ining that as a pa rk , but I was just as Impressed w ith the commun ity today recogn iz ing what a valuable asset that pa rk is and com ing together to make sure that we we re on an equ al playing field , as much as we poss ibly could be, in deal ing w ith two ent ities th at are both takin g taxes from th e same people. So , I was ve ry impre ssed with Jennifer McKee and that Save the Duncan Park group and appreciate what they did .

Mayor Wolosyn asked if there was any further discussion . Council Member Woodward said I just wanted to mention that I was at the School Board meeting last Tuesday n ight, where they had passed this unanimously and I think the School Board i a pleased and excited that the City is ending up w ith th is as a park and that we are movin g forward . Ray. Gary and I hed met w ith the School Board , as our School Board appointees ... as the negotiating group ... and we feel pretty pleased with where we end d up. I know the community i very excited . We have b n look ng at dong a n ighborhood Nat onal Night Out for that particular neighborhood . There r peopl work ng on th t nght now, ,nclud ng S fety S rv ce • I Englewood City Council July 16, 2007 Page4 think Parks and Rec, and some businesses within the community , will be involved . So , we are looking at trying to have a celebration on the ih of August , which would be the day after the second reading on this purchase . I am really excited about this . Mayor Wolosyn asked if there was any more discussion . There was none. Vote results: Motion carried . Ayes: Council Members Barrentine, Mccaslin , Moore , Wolosyn, Woodward, Tomasso, Oakley Nays : None Mayor Wolosyn said I would like to thank the negotiating team and staff and also the School District. A lot of hard work went into this and I think it is a really wonderful use of Open Space Funds and isn't it great that we have that resource . Director Black said yes it is ... we are very fortunate . Ms . Wolosyn said thank you very much. Director Black said thank you very much .

Ayes : Council Members Barrentine, Mccaslin, Moore, Wolosyn, Woodward, Tomasso, Oakley Nays: None (c) Resolutions and Motions (i) Director Gryglewicz presented a recommendation from the Finance and Administrative Services Department and the City Manager's Office to adopt a resolution setting application fees assoc iated with the Competitive Cable Franchise Ordinance. He said Council Bill No. 39 was just passed a few minutes ago and, as is the City's custom, we set our application fees by resolution and staff is recommending setting this fee at $1,500.00 . That will cover the cost of additional staff time to review and process the applications . Mayor Wolosyn asked if there were any questions for Frank. Council Member Barrentine said how much was the fee before? Mr. Gryglewicz said the fee did not exist, this is a new fee for this. Ms . Barrentine said this is an increase of $1,500.00. Mr. Gryglewicz said yes . I don't think we are going to have a whole lot of applications, but this is there to cover additional staff cost. .. incremental staff cost. Ms . Barrentine said not being that it didn't cost the staff anything before? Mr. Gryglewicz said pardon me? Ms . Barrentine said it did cost something before or didn't cost anything before? You think the new regulations are going to incur costs that we didn't have in looking these over? Mr. Gryglewlcz said yes, additional staff time , I believe, was estimated to be between 20 and 30 hours ... so this should cover that amount of staff time . Ms. Barrentine said okay . COUNCIL MEMBER WOODWARD MOVED, AND IT WAS SECONDED, TO APPROVE AGENDA ITEM 11 (c) (I) -RESOLUTION NO. 77 , SERIES OF 2007. RESOLUTION NO . 77, SERIES OF 2007 A RESOLUTION ESTABLISHING FEES FOR COMPETITIVE CABLE FRANCHISE APPLICATIONS PURSUANT TO 12-6A, OF THE ENGLEWOOD MUNICIPAL CODE 2000 . Mayor Wolosyn asked if there was any further d iscussion . There was none . Vote results: Motion carried . Ayes : Co un c il Members Ba rrenti ne, Mccas lin, Moore, Wolo syn, Woodward, Tomasso, Oakley Nays : None Mayor Wolosyn said thank you Frank. 12 . General D is cu ssi on (a) Mayor's Choice (i) Mayor Wolosyn said I am going to pa11 out a letter about the Boards and Commissions. Whenever it was suggested that the Boards and Commi11ions appreciation night take place at Pirates Cove, there was an assumption that there would be swimming available, but that Is actually the time of year where Pirates Cove is closed on Mondays . And in order, as the letter Mys, to really celebrate and serve people, we are going to move it to Saturday, August 25 1h . I would like to know if you guys are in agreement. They would have free entry from 5 to 6:30 p.m . and then , when Plrat s Cove closes , we will have a k nd of celebration . Englewood City Council July 16, 2007 Page& Council Member Woodward said I would like to mention that this is also the same day as the FunFest. I think it will give the people the opportunity to go down to FunFest and then move right on over to Pirates Cove and enjoy the park. I'm sure, and in fact I know, because I talked to some over the weekend, that there are some that have never been to Pirates Cove . I think when we originally discussed this and thought about Pirates Cove , I know that I was assuming that we would be swimming and swim suits would be included. It just came out last week that there was some confusion . So, I am in real support of this . This is a Saturday night and it keeps costs down , I think, for Parks and Rec and works pretty well . Mayor Wolosyn asked if there were any objections to it. There was none. She said okay, then this letter will go out and we will also let the Chairs know . Council Member Mccaslin said can I ask a question? We handed out letters to KEB. .. now are we going to notify those people again? Mayor Wolosyn said everybody is going to get a letter ... every single person is going to get a letter. I think that those of us who know the Chairs should tell the Chairs also, just as a follow up. Because I know at the Water Board, I told everybody they could bring their bathing suits and I know there is at least one family interested in that. Council Member Barrentine said Jerrell, is this something that is going to put too much burden on Parks and Rec, with all of the activities going on that day or has that been marked out? Director Black said this will be much easier for us , because we will be open that evening and so we are only extending about another 30 minutes or so. We will have staff there and it will be much easier for us . Ms . Barrentine said okay, thank you . Mayor Wolosyn said thanks, so we will go ahead and do that. (ii) Mayor Wolosyn said I am the Council liaison to the Englewood Education Foundation and they have been holding their annual Fall Fling fundraiser out of town . They have been at Invesco Field and also up at the cable center, but this year they are reorganizing. They no longer have a paid staff and they want to come closer to Englewood . They would like to have their annual Fall Fling here in the Community Room and in Hampden Hall . They have asked if they could have the basic rental fees waived . I explained to them that things like the $15 .00 an hour attendance fee for Hampden Hall and any setup fees can't be waived, because of staff time and they understand that. So, I told them I would bring it forward . I can tell you that Hampden Hall's base rate is $150 .00 for 4 hours and they would want it for 8 hours . And the Commun ity Room 's base rate for residents is $150 .00 an hour. The way I look at it is that we are giving them a resource that we have and I know this organization and I know the money goes to teachers and students and I appreciate tha t. I also appreciate the fact that they really are trying to cut overhead, so I would ask if Council would do that, with the understanding that our costs would be covered . She asked if there were any objections . Seeing none, I am going to go ahead. Council Member Tomasso said I think it is a good use of the Community Room and it assists the Education Foundation, when Englewood Schools are in a position where they are having serious budget problems ... so any support that we can add is definitely something we should do . Council Member Barrentine said I agree . We have few opportunities to truly partner with them to make a difference. They have their own budget, their own Board and their own problems the same as we do, but this is a nice way for us to partner with them in a fundralsing event that benefits our School District. Council Member Mccaslin said I have attended the last two and they are wonderful programs . I was at the cable company and Invesco and they do a great job, so I am definitely for it. Mayor Wolosyn said thank you and I know that the Education Foundation thanks you, but I am sure you will hear from them . l Englewood City Council July 16, 2007 Page 7 (i ii) Mayor Wolosyn said another thing I wanted to bring up is about next week ... the meeting . I don 't know if people remember ... about six weeks ago, I had asked for some suggestions on where we wanted the discussion to go and then I have asked John since . So, we are going to get a lot of data, we are going to see where we can expect to go and I am hoping we are going to hear about things , such as a proposed repayment of funds f rom the Public Improvement Fund to the General Fund , that will give us a better picture of where we are go ing . And then , I am th inking that some of the alternatives may be difficult and we are go ing to have to come up with those also . Staff can make suggestions to us , and I am sure they will. We had the report tonight on health care and that will be one of those things where we will be advised as to what they see as the right thing for us to be doing , but other things are going to have to come from us. I think that next week is an opportunity for all of us to maybe just roll up our sleeves and look at this as problem solving . Because I think all of us want this City to move forward and be a full service City that people want to live in . And we need to make sure that it has an opportunity to flourish ... especially since I know some things are coming on line like Kent Place . So , come with your ideas and come with open minds and that is all I wanted to say about that. City Manager Sears said just to follow up ... the staff has been working hard to put together the issues . We obviously won't have all of the details . We don't start the real budget. .. nitty , gritty ... until the next couple of weeks, although staff has been doing that. But I'll have a summary letter of where we are, what the issues are and Frank will also have a number of scenarios . And we will have some restructuring ideas that we will give to Council . Again , that night will be pretty overwhelming with information. We will try to get that out to you this next Thursday, but then we will have a follow up meeting on August 5th, potentially August 20th and then the Budget Retreat is September 22nd . So , there are a number of ways to take a look at it, but the whole staff has been looking hard at revenues and expenditures to see where we go ... not only next year. .. but over the next 4 or 5 years . So , we will have that information ... it is already in a prelim inary form ... to you by this Thursday for your review next Monday night. Mayor Wolosyn said thank yo u Gary . (iv) Mayor Wolosyn said my family is basically demanding me to come home, so I will miss the August 13th Study Session . It is one of those th ings that I don 't have a choice ... buy a plane ticket.. .it is my sister's birthday . So that is all I have. (b) Council Members' Choice (i ) Counc il Member Ba rrent ine : 1. She sa id I wanted to thank the EMT Serv ices and ou r Fire Div ision, aga in . My son and I were at W alg ree n's and I don 't even th in k it was 30 seconds until they were there when a woman had fallen down . When you have peop le coming in for prescriptions and th at, yo u don't know al ways wha t is goin g on w ith somebody . it could be a wide variety of things and I think the people at Walgreen's did a beautiful job, but we barely went from the register to the door and they were already there ... blocking my car, but they were already there . That is why I know for sure that they had come that quick and taken care of her. And a couple of things down on Pearl Street. .. and I have just heard a lot of nice comments about their professionalism and their speed and how well they are providing service to our citizens and I wanted to pass that along . 2. She said our new Community Development directo r is go ing to have a lot of wo rk on his hands . I cannot drive down Broadway or Hampden and not end up seeing more store fronts up for lease. It is becoming a huge concern for me. Some of the projects that have been started are really kind of in a stall and it is a huge concern with the Sheridan Redevelopment coming on line. But we are really going to put him to the task in August when he starts ... on August 1J1h ... because we are seeing a trend that is not going to be beneficial when we have a huge project going on in Sheridan . 3. She said again ... about Steakhouse 10 . There is the unfinished project that is in front of something that is really a beautiful landmark in our community and well respected to have that type of restaurant, when this community has howled for that type of service in this community and then to plop some kind of construction half finished with no end in sight seems to be very disappointing ... same thing w ith downtown Broadway and farther down on South Broadway. Hopefully , as those areas open up we can look at some innovative and im aginat ive Englewood City Council July 16, 2007 Page 8 ways of bringing some investment into there. That goes to the article that was included in our packets ... that the TOD spurs shoppers to Englewood Center . It was in the Denver Business Journal and they point out in there too that the City Center project feel has not continued to expand to the rest of the City. So, I would be interested to see some of his ideas . 4. She said I would like to get an update from the Water Department. .. and Stu . I had talked to them a couple of months ago about doing a pilot program, especially for people who are elderly who are still on flat rates and have just seen an increase with the last quarterly billing. I know that they had already put that into their projections for fees, but I understood that the Water Board was going to go ahead and see if it was possible to do a payment plan, so that people could go ahead and switch over to the metered rate . One example, a couple of blocks down from me, a person on a fixed income is paying for 13,000 gallons of use ... and that is three times the amount that my son and I use . I can't imagine that. And I understand that those people ... those approximately 2500 people in the City ... are kind of subsidizing us and I would like to see some kind of program, especially for people on fixed incomes or older people. I have contacted several plumbers who are willing to provide some services and maybe do some bulk ... several people at a time, and I would like to work with them on getting that done as we enter the next quarter. (ii) Council Member Mccaslin said well I am sure that everyone here on Council and anyone I have talked to, has heard about my dysfunctional block that I live in . About a month ago I met a gentleman ... I think he is in the audience tonight, Stephen King ... who is a builder and he bought one of the eye- sores that I have in my neighborhood and is rebuilding it. And I'll tell you, what a wonderful addition to my block that it is . I have spent some time getting to know Stephen in the last month . He is a resident of Englewood, he wants to see Englewood thrive and I just can't say how much I appreciate what he is doing for Englewood . I hope he stays in Englewood because of the quality of work he has done ... and he is a good person and to me, that means more than a lot of things . When you meet people like that on the street, that are trying to do the right thing, to me that makes me feel a lot better about living in Englewood. (iii) Council Member Oakley said I consider next Monday nights meeting one of the more important meetings that I have been able to participate in since I've come on Council. I have been giving this considerable thought and I will have some suggestions . Perhaps more severe than some others, but I think it is an opportunity for us to really put in the time it takes to make the hard decisions , that the taxpayers that elected us expect us to make . So, you can expect some comments from me for sure. (iv) Council Member Woodward : 1. He said the very first item I would like to bring up is in your packet is number 12 (b) (i) Council Members Choice ... a resolution authorizing the exemption of 3590 South Pennsylvania from Building Perm it fees associated with development and constructi on . This is the Senior Housing at 3590 South Pennsylvania that is being planned and constructed by the Englewood Housing Authority. We discussed this at our last Study Session and we had Dawn Shepherd , Director of Englewood Housing and Rodger Hara , one of the Commiss ion members, here two weeks ago discussing it. What they are looking for is a waiver of the Building Perm it fees and the City's adm inistrative portion of the Plan Review fees . COUNCIL MEMBER WOODWARD MOVED, AND IT WAS SECONDED , TO APPROVE AGENDA ITEM 12 (b) (i) • RESOLUTION NO. 78 , SERIES OF 2007.

Thank you for coming and bringing th is to our attention . 2 . He sa id the Sounds of Summer Concert on the 19th. is the Celtic group ... Skean Dubh . These are Thursday nights and they are free concerts outside here and part of why I am saying it is, for the people who read our minutes on line . On July 26th is the Michael Lloyd Band ... piano driven rock and roll ... and on August 2nd is Wh iskey Trip ... classic country and western . Bob will be at that one all dressed up and probably dancing . 3 . He said I wanted to mention that on Wednesday of last week, I attended the Senior Splash at Pirates Cove, which was available for people 50 years and older. And although it was a cool night, there was a great turnout and it was headed by Joe Sack at the Malley Center and h is staff. It was a really, really great time . It is amazing as us Baby Boomers are growing older, people at age 50 and on are coming into there and there are people utilizing the pool. There were some very elderly people just there to utilize the Park and sit and enjoy themselves . So Jerrell , compliments to Joe and his staff. It was a really good time. 4 . He said I wanted to mention that the Arapahoe County Commissioners approved the gap funding for the Oxbow on their Consent Agenda at their last meeting . We are fully funded for that at this point. 5 . He said Chris this is probably your last meeting here and I certainly want to acknowledge that and pass on my personal congratulations and appreciation for all that you have done over the years for the City of Englewood . And , we will m iss you . Council Member Barrentine said we are go ing to have a party fo r you on the 18th_ Mayor Wolosyn said the party is this Wednesday from 2 to 4 p .m . Director Olson said I just want to say , Jim , thanks a lot for that. As I sa id last week , I am go ing to miss qu ite a b it...all the people that I've worked with here in Englewood and all the memories and history over the last 31 years . It has gone by very quickly, to say the least. I know that all of you are going to do the best for the City. It is a City with a lot of potenti al and I am go ing to do my best to rep resent Englewood , as I said before , very well at the State level. Hopefully, I will be see ing all of you in the future , not just on Wednesday, but after that. But anyway , thank you for that compliment. I appreciate that. Mayor Wolosyn sa id I th ink we need a ro und of applause to thank you . Th e re was applause. 6 . He said the last item I want to mention is a concern that I had . I was shopping at King Soopers on Saturday and as I left, I was approached by an individual to sign a petition regarding the City taking funds ... this is what I was told . This particular individual initi ally claimed to be a City employee . I asked him which department he worked for and he didn't answer that. And he Just handed me the petition and said read this . I said which department do you work for? And then he told me that he cleans graffiti off the walls and I suggested to him that maybe he wasn 't an employee and maybe that he was doing community service work and that he was a tagger. He told me that the City of Englewood is removing money from the paychecks of individuals ... $50 .00 ... and sending that money to charitable organizations as the City sees fit...at which point, I kind of lost it and I told this man that he was a liar , and that furthermore I didn't believe that he was a City employee ... and that I felt pretty certain he wasn't a City employee and based upon the shirt that he was wearing , I felt pretty certain that he was a paid petition person . So , I don't quite know what is going on with th is . I went and talked to his supervisor who he directed me to and she acknowledged that he was paid , that he was not an employee of the City and that she would ask him to stop claiming to be a City employee . But I know this same petition, from what I understand ... and th is is hearsay ... has gone to Greeley, Littleton and possibly Centennial. I don 't know what this is about , but it is really dishearten ing to have somebody stand there and lie to you and lie to the public . And there is no doubt about it being a lie . That is all I have , thank you . Mayor Wolosyn sa id thank you . Englewood City Council July 16, 2007 Page 10 Council Member Barrentine said I have to state an objection to us using this forum as a way to talk about political issues. That is a Charter initiative that is being done by the public and if it gets on the ballot, the citizens will have an opportunity to vote on that. But it is a dangerous thing for us to start commenting on those kinds of political issues in Council meetings and I object to doing that. Mayor Wolosyn said thank you . Council Member Mccaslin said I appreciate your bringing it up, because I had a couple of phone calls on what it was about and I had no idea, so it is kind of getting me informed on what is going on . And I agree with Jim, I think when people do not represent who they really are ... that is a concern and to me that is wrong . Council Member Barrentine said I understand, but it is a political issue and we have our hands tied in using th is form to lobby for or against. I am not saying that I am for or against, I am saying that this forum should not be used in that manner. It is inappropriate. Mayor Wolosyn said we are going to move on now, it was just an FYI. Council Member Mccaslin said it wasn't for or against, it was just the way it was said . ' Mayor Wolosyn said lets just move on . It was just an FYI. 13. City Manager's Report (a) City Manager Sears said first of all I do want to say thanks to the City Council and thank you for your support this past week . I lost a sister-in-l aw unexpected ly. I appreciate the flowers and the kind comments . I really do appreciate it and I know my family does too . (b) City Manager Sears said regarding Laurett's comment in terms of the Hampden project. I know there is some new information about the construction of that. I don't have that tonight. I know that all of Council is as concerned about that as we are. I'm really hoping that does get cleaned up. Chris do you have some specifics on that? Director Olson said yes , there were trucks over there today and from what I understand , a permit has been pulled to go ahead and ju st finish off the outside portion of that structure and then they will leave any tenant finish ... to the tenant they come up with , but they aren't going to add any more on . What you see there is just go ing to be finished off on the outs ide . There were several trucks over there today starting to work on it. City Manager Sears said it is long overdue . I am really glad that that is moving ahead . Thanks. Council Member Barrentine said just one more comment. Just as long as we make sure that in those plans , if they do the tenant finish ... my request that started this whole thing ... is that they not put their waste receptacle in the place that had been originally designed . That would be right in front of Steakhouse 1 O's door. That is what kind of started the whole interest in this and then the bank fell through. And so as long as that design is not going to go through ... that was only the second objection, so I just wanted to note that. City Manager Sears said I don't know the status of that. We will have to find that out from them and we will record that and note that to them . Ms . Barrentine said okay, thank you . (c) City Manager Sears said again I want to say thanks to Chris and all the work he has done for the City ... selecting and promoting people, being available 24/7, calling me in the early morning on an issue ... he has done a wonderful job for the City . He will be missed and, hopefully, Council can Join us on Wednesday for his farewell. (d) City Manager Sears said I also wanted to note that we are going to have three Germans ... the Mayor from Seim and the Mayor Pro Tern and anothe r Council Member ... here from the 25th of July to the 1•t of Augu t W r pl nning to put togeth r a brief r caption on the 26th at 6 o 'clock , right before the Sound of Englewood City Councll July 18, 2007 Page 11 Summer. We will have an invitation out to Council. We just have some small mementos to give to the Germans who are here. We've got a pretty heavy schedule in terms of meetings, showing them the City and showing them the area. Mayor Wolosyn has graciously accepted to have the Mayor from Belm stay with her. Bob Mccaslin will also have one of the Council members and I'll have a Rotarian and myself also working with the third member. It will be a short stay while they are here, but they are involved with the German government. We will also have the Honorable Consulate from Germany here, he is located in Denver and will attend the reception and will be here for that time that they are in town . I will send a note out, but it is pretty exciting on the Sister City that this is actually moving ahead . I appreciate Council's support to make that happen . 14. City Attorney's Report City Attorney Brotzman did not have any matters to bring before Council. 15. Adjournment LOSYN MOVED TO ADJOURN . The meeting adjourned at 8 :23 p.m. -~· -/---+.,...,._-b"' ......... :...:..z;..;;..~~-<+-.....;._ Community Housing Development Association , Inc. Honorable Olga Wolosyn , Mayor City of Englewood 1000 Englewood Parkway Englewood, CO 80110 August I, 2007 RE : Presidential Arms Apartments Acquisition/Rehabilitation Dear Mayor Wolosyn : r -.. ~-- .' l .---· .... 6a 325 Inverness Drive Sou th Eng lewood. CO 80 I I 2 AUG -1 2007 I __ J Community Housing Development Association, Inc. (CHDA) is under contract to purchase the 33-unit Presidential Arms Apartments located at 3595 S. Washingtou in Englewood . The purpose of this letter is to inform you of our plans, and to request support from the City of Englewood necessary for various requests for project funding. For your information , the City Community Development Director has confirmed that our acquisition/rehabilitation plans for the Presid ential Arms Apartments are consistent with "Roadmap Englewood", the City 's 2003 Compreh ensive Plan . A copy of this letter is attached for your reference . The City 's Planning staff have confirmed that the propeny is a permitted , non-conforming use ( current parking requirements exceed approved parking at time of construction in 1963). Following below is a brief description of the project and our organization . Attached are copies of a property brochure , summary demo graphic information provided by the Hou sing Market Study prepared by Pri or & Ass oc iates as of July 19 , 2007 , and an inform ation al fl yer about CHDA and our other hous ing pro perti es . Pres id ential Arm s Apartm ents The Presidential Arms Apa11ment building was built in 1961 hy Dr. David Kramish. The property was conveyed to his family trust in 2000, the current owner. The building is structurally sound and is reasonably well maintained , however the units and major systems have 11ot been updated since construction . Our plans at this time would be to acquire and totally n.:1~ovate the property, and continue to own and operate the building as rental housing. Planned capital improvements and updating in an amount up to $25,000/unit include substantial ~afety and health improvements, including replacement of the original 44-year old elevator. Near-term planned rehabilitation also includes a number of energy effic :ency up hrades such as replacing single pa11e aluminum windows and patio doors , replacement of the origmal boi k r. updating and improving unit function /a ·sthctics , and addres ing exterior repair and maintenance ;tcms such as cracked "tair , walkways . and roof.'parking lot repairs. Plan s also tentatively in lude creating a 1:indscaped c mmunity courtyard .irc a by fillin g in thee ·isting in-ground wimmin g po I. Proje ·t fondin g will include c tabli hing operating and capital improvement reserves to ensure adequate resources for favorable long-term maintenance and operation of the property. CHDA 's acquisition/ rehabilitation of the project will bring nearly $3.4 million in new equity and grant funds, with a minimum amount of debt to improve an existing deteriorating Englewood rental housing property. Local support is an important precursor for securing funding from public and private providers of the resources proposed for the project. The overall project budget is estimated at $4.16 million. The project financing structure includ es a total of $660,000 HOME funds for acquisition from both Arapahoe County and the State Division of Housing (DOH); utilization of a previously approved FHLBank Affordable Housing Program (AHP) grant in the amount of $205,000; estimated permanent financing in the amount of $720 ,000 ; and approximately $2.45 million in investor equity via an allocation of Low Income Housing Tax Credits. Funding will also be requested from the Governor's Office of Energy Management for a po1tion of the cost for energy efficiency improvements and updating . The apartment building consists of 5 studio, 18 one-bedroom and IO two-bedroom units . Existing rents range from $400 to $750/unit/month . As of June I , 2007, there were two vacant units in the property. The current resident population includes a mix of singles , elderly , and small families . Our proposed acquisition of the property does not add additional affordable rental units to the market , nor does it require the in-migration of additional low-income residents to ensure ongoing occupancy . Based on resident income information and conversation with the existing property manager, nearly all current resid e nts are low-and very-low income, and would qualify to remain in the building under income targeting (a t or below 60 % of AMI) for the LIHTC, HOME , and other gra nt funding After project renovation it is our intent to keep rents affordable for modest wage earners with incomes at 30%, 50%, and 60% of the Area Median Income (AMI). Over 40% of the units will be av ailabl e to residents earning wa ges that are at th e higher end of the local employment market. The planned unit mix is a s follows : 20% o r 7 units@ 30 % AMI = wages at or below $19 ,3 50 ($9 .3 0/hr) 37% o r 12 unit s@50 % AMI = wages at or be low $32,2 50 ($15 .50/hr) 43% o r 14 unit s@60% AMI = wages at or be low $38,700 ($18 .6 1/hr) Consistent with our mission, a portion of the units will be set aside as supportive housing for special needs residents who are consumers of the CHDA member organizations . These organizations include Development Pathways , Arapahoe/Douglas Mental Health Network, and Arapahoe House , Inc. Thi would mean that over time, we would attempt to fill up to seven of the 33 units with residents receiving ervices from these human service organizations. Future Development S it e -Four Adjac ent S ingl e-Family Home s /\I though not a part of this request for support, HOA is also under contract to purchase four inglc-family homes that are adjacent across the alley to the west of the subject apartments .. 1 he purchase price for each f the homes is $150,000. The purchase contract for the apartments also include the 600.000 purchase price for the e homes, resulting in a combined contract price f 2 . 7 million . Earl , plan for future re-development include p sible con truction f multifamil mi ed-in ome l"n r-sak ho me s . The se c . i ting ·mall deta hcd h u ing dwellings arc in a eragc t p r onditi n fi r 2 their ages -1905, 1920 and 1954. They are currently owned by the same family trust that owns the Presidential Arms. The houses are all are currently occupied by tenants. Property inspection reports indicate needed repairs of approximately $10,000 -$12 ,000/house. The backyard of the most southern corner house has been paved, and is used as additional parking for the apartments . The City of Englewood shows no record of a permit being issued for this use . Resolution of legal use issues will be resolved with the Seller as a condition of closing. As a result , the property for this corner house may ultimately be added to the legal description for the apartments . AboutCHDA CHDA is a nonprofit housing development organization formed in 1995 with the intent of increasing/preserving the supply of decent safe housing affordable to low-income and special needs populations in Arapahoe and Douglas Counties. CHDA has developed two apartment properties -one new construction, and a recent acquisition/rehabilitation that is very similar to the Presidential Arms. CHDA has been actively but unsuccessfully looking for housing development opportunities in Arapahoe and Douglas counties for the past two+ years. We pursued the Presidential Arms property in part due to the Englewood Housing Authority's invitation to work in the Englewood community CHDA utilizes Ross Management professional property management services for our properties. Ross Management staff have specialized expertise in managing rental housing properties -including those serving special needs residents that utilize LIHTC, HOME , and other funding typically used to facilitate housing affordability. All residents in CHDA-owned properties, including these special needs residents , undergo rigorous resident qualification evaluation. This includes criminal background checks, credit histories , and review of previous residency , employment verification, and income qualification . The residents that come to our properties from CHDA's partner agencies are also screened by supportive services staff, and deemed highly stable and capable of living in an independent, integrated housing environment. Ross staff works closely with supportive service staff in placement of our special needs residents . Case management staff continues to support our special needs residents during their tenancy in our properties . As a result of these combined efforts , our experience in our two other properties -Willow Street Residences and Lara Lea Apartments -is that these residents become our mod e l citizens that are invisible within the property 's non-special needs resident population . It is our be li ef that the property will have limited appeal to private sector investors, if CHDA does not acquire and renovate the property. This is due to very limited potential rent growth (current rents are at the top of the market), the poor condition of units, and the significant amount of capital investment that would be needed to update units to remain competitive and realize a return. Without significant capital improvements , the property will continue to deteriorate, attracting an increasingly problematic resident population . CHDA 's plans will bring a sizeable investment of new resources to the Englewood community . These new public and private funding resources will provide for significant long-term improvement of an aging, existing Englewood rental hou sing property . Property repair, updating, and upgrad es combined with professional prope11y management and CHDA's long-term ownership will substantially improve Ii ing condition fore ·isling and future modest-income Englewood re idents, and result in significant communit benefit fi r year to come . Thank you for your consideration of this matter. I can be reached at (303) 799-4341 if additional information is rieeded regarding this request. Executive Director Attachment 4 DATA FROM HOUSING MARKET STUDY PREPARED BY PRIOR& ASSOCIATES-JULY 19, 2007 (Prepared for August 2007 Low Income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC) application) • The Presidential Arms Apartments is located in the central Englewood submarket, which provides shelter for low-and middle-income households with retail , service, healthcare , professional and construction jobs with annual incomes of $17,000 ($8.17/hr) to $40,000 ($19.23/hr). • The property is located in Qualified Census Tract 0059.51 , with a median income ($31 ,278) that is 48. 9% less than the Denver MSA median ($61 ,190). • The Housing indicates that the Primary Market Area (PMA) has 16 ,498 inhabitants , with PMA boundaries defined as follows: North: South: East: West: East Yale A venue/Englewood City Limits West Oxford Avenue South Downing Street/South Clarkson Street/Englewood City Limits Santa Fe Drive • There has been no new apartment construction in the PMA in the last three years, and no large scale multifamily rental projects (5 or more units) constructed in Englewood since 2001. The PMA ha s no existing LIHTC projects . • Terraces on Pennsyl vania is an age -restricted proj ec t that received an alloca t ion of tax cre dits in th e first round of 2007. The project will contain a total of 62 one -and two-bedroom unit s restricted at the 40% and 50% AMI thre sholds , but will not compe te directly with the subject for tenants . • Presidential Arms will target to households w ith one to thre e persons and yearly income between $11 ,280 ($5.42/hour) and $38 ,700 ($18.61/hour), with the following unit mix : 20% or 7 units @ 30% AMI = wages at or below $19 ,350 ($9 .30/hr) 37 % or 12 unit s@ 50 % AMI = wage s at or be low $32 ,250 ($15 .50/hr) 4 3% or 14 unit s@ 60 % A MI = wages at or below $38 ,700 ($18.61/hr) • T he Ho usin g Market Stud y concludes th at th e PMA will have 1,737 incom e-and size-qua lifi ed tenants in 2009 who will account for 21.1 % of the PMA total househol ds, and 42 .6% of its renters . Other summary demographic data provided by the Housing Market Study are as follows: • ince 2000, the population has been increasing 0.9% in the PMA, and is projected to increase 0.4% per year to 16 ,487 by 2012. • Between 2000 and 2006 the PMA gained 51 househo lds per year, and is projected to gain 56 households per year through 2012 . At completion of renovation projected for 2009, the PMA will consist of 8 065 households . • In 2007 , renter compri ed 50 .7% of the hou eholds in the PMA . By 2009 , the PMA will have gained 44 rent r h u chold for a total of 4 ,073 renter households in the PMA . 5 • The 2000 US Census reported that 56.0% of the PMA's renter households had one person , 23.8% had ; two , 15.7% three or four , and 4 .5% five or more . The subject's units are targeted to 1-3 person households , indicating that 91 % (3,651) of renter households in the PMA are size quali fled for its units. • According to the 2000 US Census, 60.6% of occupied rental units in the PMA had one bedroom or less , 28.9% had two , 7.8% three, and 2.7 had four or more bedrooms . • The subject's unit mix of 15% studio units , 55% one-bedroom units, and 30% two-bedroom units is appropriate for the market area, where 91 % of renter household s have betwe e n one and three pe rsons , and the average household size is I . 76 persons. • 2000 US Census indicated that 30 .2% of renter households in the PMA paid Jess than 20% of their income for gross rent, 29 .6% paid between 20% and 30%, I 0.2 paid between 30% and 40%, and 26 .1 % paid 40% or more, which represents rent overburden. • Income/age of renter households in the PMA reported by the 2000 US Census shows 1,861 renter households under age 55 , 159 renter household s age 55-61 , and 616 renter hou se holds 62+ years olds that have incomes between $0-$40 ,000. The Housing Market Study concludes that the subject's target market is underserved by th e lack of LIHTC units in the PMA. Additionally , the only other planned project in the PMA 's development pip e line is the age-restricted LIHTC project targeted to senior household s, which w ill not co mp ete directly with th e s ubject for ten a nt s. The Housing Marke t Study further concludes that the Presidential Arms can attain it s required market share because an estimated 87% of its existing tenants will be income-qualified for its unit s after re novation , therefore it should absorb most of its units with existing tenants. The proposed rehabilitation will upgrade th e prope rty 's overall condition and improve its marketability with its current te nant based , which will require minimal displacement during th e renovation . Additionally , there are no LIHTC units in the market area indicating that exist in g renter households are und erserved by income-restri cted units . Because the subject 's post-renovation rents will decrease slight ly from their April 2007 rent roll averages, they will conti nue to be attainable in the near a nd long terms. The subject's number of existing income-qualified tenants at the subject coupled with the market area's projected renter household growth, the Jack of income-restricted units in the PMA, and its slight decrease in rent should enable the ubject to match it hist rical occupancy rate over the long-term and operate at 93% or better. Finally , s pecial needs residents erved by I IDA partner agencies typically have extremely limited incomes , resulting in a strong demand for the 20% special needs set aside units in 1 IDA properties .

CO 80 I I 2 Community Housing Development Association, Inc . A Need in the Community Creating quality supported living opportunities for people in the south metro Denver area with modest means. Stable affordable housing provides an important foundation for the economic and social well being of individuals, families, and the communities in which they live . However, the market response to housing has traditionally targeted higher income consumers. As a result, there has long been a significant demand for housing that is affordable to households with modest means . Housing also frequently presents complex challenges for individuals and families impacted by developmental disabilities, mental illness, and/or substance addiction. CHDA Mission Statement The purpose of the Community Housing Development Association (CHDA) is to provide quality, service- supported living opportunities for people with modest means and those with developmental disabilities, mental illness and/or substance addiction in the south metro Denver area . CHDA -History and Services CHDA was formed in 1995 through the collaboration of three human service organizations: Arapahoe/Douglas Mental Health Network -is a community mental health center that provides professional , comprehensive mental health care and substance abuse treatment mainly to communities of Arapahoe and Douglas County. Founded in 1955, the organization offers adult outpatient services; child and family services; residential treatment services; substance abuse treatment services for adults and adolescents; recovery/rehabilitation services; case management; medication services and a pharmacy. Arapahoe House, Inc. -founded in 1975 as a detoxification program facility, and has since grown to become Colorado's largest provider of alcohol and drug treatment services, and services to clients with co-occurring substance abuse and mental illness . These include an array of intensive and transitional residential programs, outpatient clinics, and intensive case management services, with separate programs available for adolescents and ad ult s. Developmental Pathways -created in 1964 as a commu nity -based a lternative to institutional care for persons with developmental disabilities . Over time, "Pathways" has developed a broad array of services based on the principle that full inclusion and participation in community life is attainab le for every individual with a developmental disability . CHDA dedicates 20% of the units in its properties individuals supported by its partner agencies. These resident s receive suppo11ive servic s designed to address health, employment, transpo11atio11, daily living skills which assist residents ueceed at living in an integrated, independent community environment.

RECOMMENDED ACTION Staff recommends that Council approve a Bill for an Ordinance authorizing a Purchase Agreement and Lease Back to Koch Landscaping for the South Platte River Oxbow property in Englewood and Littleton for open spa ce, re c reation, wildlife habitat and w ater quality use s. BACKGROUND AND ANALYSIS In 2006, on Englewood's behalf, the Trust for Public Lands (TPL) secured an option to purc h ase the Oxbow Property for open space. Englewood submitted a grant application to Arapahoe County in 2006 seeking funds to purchase the property. The Arapahoe County Open Space and Trails Board (OSTB) selected the Oxbow grant application for funding and the Arapahoe County Commissioners concurred. Englewood requested the maximum grant amount of $250,000 and pledged match funding of the minimum $62,500. There was also an agreement with the City of Littleton that they would cost share in acquisi tion costs over $312,500. Fair market value based on an independent appraiser hired by TPL was agreed to be the basis for a selling price. In 2007, TPL and Englewood worked with property owner Koch to select an MAI appraiser to determine the property value. The appraisal determined the value of the Oxbow Property to be $675,000 due to recent sales of land adjacent to the Oxbow to Lowe's Home Improvement Store and other recent sales of land including land purchased for the Sheridan Urban Renewal Project. _____________ ...._.__...._.. ___ _ Mr. Koch has agreed to accept the value determination in the 2007 appraisal. Other terms of the agreement include the City leasing the property back to Mr. Koch for up to five years for use in his landscaping business. The lease would renew annually for a nominal amount but would not be transferable except upon his death, in which case Koch Landscaping could continue to operate on the property under the terms of the agreement. Use of the Property The 2003 South Platte River Plan identified a series of goals and objectives including enhancing opportunities to enjoy open space and protect the natural environment by providing lands for recreation, wildlife habitat, and water quality. The Oxbow property contains protected wetlands, floodplain, and frontage on the Colorado Water Conservation Board property that contains the South Platte River. The Oxbow property has the potential for being a trailhead for a future trail along the east side of the river because there is safe vehicle access to and from the property at the signalized intersection of West Belleview Avenue and South Zuni Street. Because the current occupant of the property would remain on the property for up to five years, there is no immediate plan to develop the property for public use. During Mr. Koch's leasehold, the City could continue to seek conservation easements on adjacent properties that would provide links to the Big Dry Creek trail north of the Oxbow. Englewood may seek funding for trails and enhancements through the GOCO Legacy Grant or other eligible sources. The purchase of the Oxbow Property will count toward Englewood's match for a Great Outdoors Colorado (GOCO) Legacy Grant. The Concept Paper for the Legacy Grant was drafted by the Trust for Public Lands (TPL) and submitted on behalf of the South Platte Working Group (SPWG) in March 2007. GOCO invited the South Platte Working Group to submit a full grant application in August 2007 for a funding decision at the end of the calendar year. SPWG is requesting a $7 million GOCO Legacy Grant to assist with an estimated $20 million of open space and trail enhancements and purchases along the South Platte in Arapahoe County. FINANCIAL IMPACT The cost of purchasing the South Platte River Oxbow property is $730,000. This includes the land, surveys, appraisals, and real estate services provi ded by the Trust for Publi c Lands . The IGA between Englew ood and Arapahoe County provi des Englewood match funding of $6 2,500 for Arapah oe Cou nty gran t fund ing of $250,000. In addit ion, Englewood has all ocated $125,000 of Open Space Shareback funds to the project. The City of Littleton committed $109,500 for the purchase and South Suburban Parks and Recreation District contributed $47,000 for the purchase. Arapahoe County Open Space made an additional funding commitment of $136,000 AlTACHMENTS Bill for an Ordinance Purchase Agreement • ORDINANCE NO .

Marcela Rascon joined Stratum in 2007 after implementing and administering the Datastream MP2 and 7i applications for several years at University Hospital in Denver. Mr. Bush and Miss Rascon reside full time in the Denver area, and Mr. Faith resides in Evansville IN.

SUMMARY OF PURPOSE FOR STATEMENT OF WORK Implementation Methodology and Core Team Requirements Stratum Consulting Partners (SCP) proposes to implement the Datastream 7i version 8.2 application in partnership with the LE-WWTP project team . The proposed project segments are each listed below , with an explanation of what is to be accomplished during each segment. Please note that these segments , upon completion , will bear a deliverable and will represent a milestone in the project lifecycle . Each milestone will require sign-off by a client representative prior to moving into the next project segment. Please see the accompanying MS Project Gantt chart for a graph ical representation of the project segments and timeline . Discovery During the discovery phase, SCP will spend time on-site with LE-WWTP stakeholders and team members through interviews, group meetings, brainstorming sessions, etc. to fully understand all business processes that are proposed to be managed within the Datastream 7i system . Major information and decisions that are to be elicited during this phase include: • Quality of existing data and decisions on what portion will be migrated forward • Features and functions in MP2 that have provided value to the organization and that should be migrated forward . (Conversely, limitations of MP2 that were problematic and should be overcome .) • In-depth review and discussions of the PCA and LE-WWTP developed business processes (Asset Reliability Model), and how they will be integrated into the Datastream 7i system • Level of commitment of team members and management for the project • Ultimate stakeholders and success metrics Deliverable: Complete and final project plan and scope for migration to Datastream 7i, including detailed tasks and ownership of each. Customer signoff required to move to next phase. Design and Test (Test System Development) During this project phase a complete test 7i system will be developed with LE-WWTP sample data . This phase allows the core team and key user base to participate in the system design and testing in a "real world " setting. All system modules and core business processes (i.e. Base Module, Assets Module, Work Order Processing , PMs, etc.) will be modeled, configured and completely tested. The core team will execute customized test scripts against the database to validate the configuration. Some of the tasks incorporated into this phase include: • Core Team Training • Data Structure Comparison • Test system configuration and process review (See expanded list of tasks in P roject Gantt Chart) • Test script execution • Sample data conversion • Final data conversion requirements development • Acceptance Deliverable/Milestone : Configured and tested system (design frozen). Customer signoff required to proceed to next phase . :ommlsslon and Deploy During this project phase the Production 7i system will be configured and prepared for final data conversion, based on the accepted design of the test system. The core team will begin taking ownership of the process during this phase and will be responsible for the majority of the development and configuration of the production system . Additional core team training will occur during this phase concurrent with the system configuration. During this final phase the end -users will receive training based on thP-ir roles and needs, the final data conversion will take place and the cut-over will occur. Tasks that will be performed during this phase include: • Production configuration • Documentation of operating practices, procedures and requirements • Training course segment and materials development • Production configuration review and acceptance • End user training • Final data quality verification and migration • Go-live • Go-live support and corrective training • System acceptance Deliverable/Milestone: Commissioned Datastream 7i system Resource Requirements of LE-WWTP The Stratum Consulting Partners Project Manager will interface directly with the assigned Project Manager from the LE -WWTP implementation team .

Brotzman, respectfully sub mits the following Answer: INTRO DUCTION 1. The real property located at 4811 South Broadway, Englewood, Colorado 80110, is leased by the Plaintiff, Mike Mahaney. The Plaintiff owns and operates a business from that location called Headed West. On or about April of 2007 the Plaintiff had painted two wall murals, one on the North s ide of the leased premises and one on the South side of the premises . Responding to citizen inquiries, ity of Englewood staff notified Plaintiff that the murals were in violation of the ity's Sign de and would have to be brought into compliance or removed . The Plaintiff subsequently did not bring the murals into compliance nor have them removed, and the ity began proceedings in the Municipal ou11 to enforce its Sign Code. City staff served upon one Mi c hael Allard, an employee and manager of the Plaintiff, a Sununons and Complaint citing him with violating the ity' Sign ode, the charges were di missed. On July 19, 2007 Mike Mahatmey wa ·erv d with a umm n and omplaint, again alleging everal violations of th City' Sign ode, nd the Pl inti ff ha n arraignment d te of Augu t 22, 2007 . De pile the Plaintifr contention to the ntr. ry, th ity f n lewood' Sign ode i a onstitution 1, c ntent n utral ign c d . JURISDICTION AND VENUE 2 . The City of Englewood consents to jurisdiction and venue within the Arapahoe County District Court. PARTIES 3. The City is unaware of the Plaintiffs citizenship; however, admits that Mr. Mahaney owns and operates Headed West, a head shop, located in the City of Englewood at 4811 South Broadway. 4 . The City of Englewood is a Home Rule Municipal City; its powers are authorized under Article XX of the Colorado Constitution. FACTS 5. The Plaintiff has violated the Englewood Sign Code as to size, number of signs, and failure to obtain a permit. 6. The Englewood Sign Code is facially neutral regarding First Amendment speech and is a minimal infringement on any free speech rights consistent with the police powers of the City of Englewood. 7 . The Englewood Sign Code works as a restrictive code. That is, nothing which falls within the Code is allowed unless there is a specific provision which authorizes a sign, or location. 8. The Sign Code's stated purpose is, among other things, to provide a reasonable balance between the right of the individual to identify his business and the right of the public to be protected against the visual discord resulting from the unrestricted proliferation of signs and similar devices." [ 16-6-1-B (3) E.M.C .] 9 . The Sign Code governs all signs within all zone districts of the City. [16-6-13 (C) (1) E .M .C.] The regulations relate to types , size and location of signs, not the content and is therefore facially neutral. I 0 . The Code provides exceptions to the Sign Code requirement of obtaining a permit for certain signs, when they are "displayed for non-commercial purposes ." The exceptions include a "work of art". However; the exceptions must still follow guidelines regarding placement and size. [ 16-6-13 (E) E.M.C .] 11 . Murals, wall signs and wall murals are defmed in the Sign Code and have definite meanings. ign : Any object, device or part thereof, situated outdoors or indoors, which is used to advertise, identify, display, direct or attract the attention to an object, pers n, institution, organization, business, product, service, event or location, by any mean including words, letters, figures, design, symbols, fixtures, colors , motion, illumination or projected images . 2 Wall mural: A picture painted on any exterior wall of a principal building other than the front wall of the building, which (1) does not directly or indirectly advertise or call attention to any product, or (2) restores a previously existing wall painting at least forty (40) years old (regardless of whether such wall painting advertised or called attention to a product). A wall mural may include a sign of no more than two (2) square feet identifying the artist and/or thesponsorofthewallmural. [16-11 E.M.C .] Wall sign : A sign attached to, painted on, or erected against a wall of a building, the display surface of which is parallel to the face of the building to which the sign is attached . A mansard roof may be considered a wall if the top edge of a sign attached to it extends no more than twenty-four inches (24") from the mansard roof surface. 12 . The Plaintiff appears to argue that he is exempt from all requirements of the Code because he feels the paintings on his building are "works of art" and not subject to legitimate commercial speech limitations . 13. Even if taken in a form most flattering and advantageous to the Plaintiff, "works of art" are exempt from the permitting regulations but not from the objective requirements of size and number restriction. 14 . The Defendant admits the allegations set forth in Paragraphs 6, 9, 11, 13, 15, 20 and 26. 15. The Defendant denies the allegations set forth in Paragraphs 8, 10, 11 , 12 and 14. 16. The Defendant is without sufficient knowledge and information to form a belief as to the truth of the allegations set forth in Paragraphs 16, 17 , 18 , 19 and 21. 17 . Regarding Paragraph 7 , the Defendant admits that Section 16-11-2 E.M .C . defines a "sign" but denies it is a broad definition and that the abbreviated version given in the Complaint accuratel y r efle cts th e Englewo od Municipal Code. Defendant denies the remainder of Paragraph 7 . 18. R egardin g Paragraph 8, the D efend ant admits that 16 -6-13D E .M .C . makes it unlawful to displ ay erect, co nstrue relocate or alter any sign wi thout firs t fi ling an appl ica tio n in writi ng, paying app licable fees and obtaining a pennit except for signs which do not require a pennit pursuant to 16-6-3E E.M.C. The Defendant further admits that "In the case of any sign for which special review by the City Manager or designee is not requested, the City shall, within five (5) working days of the date of the application, either approve or deny the app lication or refer the app lication back to the applicant in any instance where ins u fficie nt information has been fu mi hed . Defen dant denies the remainder of Paragraph 8. 19 . Regarding Paragraph 10, Defendant ad1nits J6-6-3E E .M .C . allows igns disp layed for non- onm1ercial purp se based on the size of the sign, not on content. That Section defi ne one type of n n-conunercial a. a "work of art" which inc ludes, among other types of art, "painting, whether po1table or pennanently fixed, as in the ca e of murals". Defendant denies the remainder Paragraph I 0 . 20 . Regarding Paragraph 23, the Defendant admits the City served Headed West with a Notice for violating Sections 16-6-3D (l)(a); 16-6-13K (3)(b)(6) and Table 16 -6-13 E.M.C. Defendant denies the remainder of Paragraph 23 . 21. Regarding Paragraph 28, the Defendant admits the allegations and that Plaintiff was subsequently charged in Englewood Municipal Court with the three violations listed in Paragraph 23. 22. Regarding Paragraphs 22, 24, 25 and 27, the Minutes of the Meeting will speak for themselves. 23 . The Defendant denies all remaining allegation of the Complaint. FffiST CAUSE OF ACTION FffiST AMENDMENT; FREE SPEECH 24. The City of Englewood denies that it in any way denied the Plaintiffs First Amendment Freedom of Speech under the United State Constitution. SECOND CAUSE OF ACTION COLORADO CONSTITUTION ARTICLE ii, SECTION 10; FREE SPEECH 25 . The City of Englewood denies that it in any way denied the Plaintiffs First Amendment Freedom of Speech under the Colorado State Constitution. FIRST DEFENSE 26. The Defendant affinnatively denies that any of the claims presented by the Plaintiff in this matter can be based upon the First Amendment to the United States Constitution. SECOND DEFENSE 27 . The Defendant affirmatively denies that any of the claims presented by the Plaintiff in this matter can be based upon the Constitution of the State of Colorado. THIRD DEFENSE 28. The Plaintiff has failed to mitigate the damages alleged by him in this matter. FOURTH DEFENSE 29 . At all times relevant hereto , any actions undertaken by the Defendant or its officials with respect to the Plaintiff were based upon the legitimate and valid exercise of the police power of the City of Englewood, a lawful construction by appropriate City officials of City zoning ordinances, and were based upon neutral time, place and/or manner restrictions. . " PRAYER FOR RELIEF WHEREFORE, the City of Englewood respectfully prays that this Court dismiss this Complaint and determine that the City of Englewood Municipal Code -Sign Code as it applies to murals in question is Constitutional.
