The proc lamation be.fo re Counci l is a proc lam ati on recogniz in g the trem end ous efforts of the eleve n peop le th at are li sted. Many, m:my other people have contributed 10 thi s projec1 in big. and maybe more moderate wnys, but thi s ha s rea ll y been an exceptional tea m effort. ft ha s not been my experien ce, in fact, that different departments get alo ng as we ll . It is very unusual. I think , for that to occu r in so me orga ni zatio ns. I think it speaks to the co ll aborative nat ure of thi s "'rganization, he sa id . We ha ve done a lot of compari so n over 1hc ter m of 1his project 10 oth er initiative s. ta lking about capital costs and diffe rent thin gs, but I think the one mos t 1ellin g part of thi s proj ec t th at"s unique , is that most organi za ti ons takin g on such a big effo rt . hire a hu ge num ber of back fill staff to all ow th ,: learn membe rs to do their utmos t on th e project so tha t the re gul ar wo rk gel s done. We did not hire a si ngle ou tside per so n to co me in ... th ese fo lk s did their normal wor k in additi on to under taking 1h : ... hu ge effort. I estimated, among th ese pcu plc. th al at least fi ve to six th ousa nd hours of addi 1ional work went int o th is project beyond th e nor mal 40-ho ur work week . And, he nmcd, that will continue, beca use, not onl y are we li ,·c ri ght now but as with norm al sys tem imp lcmen1 ,1 ~ms. th ere is a lot of fine tun ing th at goes un .

That matt er was fo rward ~d tu the Code Enforce ment Advisory Co mmincc who reco mm ended to Ci ty Cou m.·11 to leave th e Cod e as it is. The ma il er then proceeded to Co uncil . Co uncil felt oth erni sc a nd wa nted th e issues addres scd ... as inoperabl e ve hicl es rath er th an as dereli ct and hobb y. Tha t mailer was se nt ba d . to th e Code Enfo rcem ent Ad vi,;ory Co mmitt ee. he said . and I work ed with them on a dr:1fl of th e Ordinan ce. Th ey gra ciously hdped me throui;h 1he ordinan ce pro1..-ess. wo rkin g to tr y to make th e leg al ese pra cti ca l as mu ch as we co uld . Th at matt er was then fo rward ed back to Ci ty Co uncil 10 a Stud y Ses sion. again wi th the re co mm e ndati on to leave th e Code as it c urre ntl y sta nd s. Thi s maner was th en rea d on fir st re ading and it is now before Coun cil on Public I-fearing . Ma yor Brad shaw noted that Co un cil wo uld not be maki ng a dec isio n thi s eve nin g. Thi s hearin g is fo r pub lic input. All witne sses were dul y swo rn . Don Roth. 283 0 South Sherman Stree t. said my fir st reacti on when I read thi s ... J have to admit. .. wa s who on Co uncil sel ls fe nce s? Thi s Ordinan ce is going 10 en co urage more privacy fencl!s. I ha ve been down plenty of alleys doin g lin er surv eys fo r Kee p Englewood Beautiful. If yo u ha ve ev er been do wn an alley where there are nothing bu1 so lid pri vacy fences, all the wa y down the all ey , it is actuall y quite startling . Th is ordinan ce would en co urage that. Then I thought that ma ybe Council doesn't under stand the thinking of people wh o ha ve 1hose ve hicles. Perso nally , I ha ve two vehicles that ... like my dogs ... the y have no li cen se. The y ne ve r jump the fen ce, th ey don't bark al the neighbors, they ha ve neve r atta cked thr. mailman, and they sit qui etly . One of them is a tru e cla ssic vehi cle. I bou gh1 it wh en I wa s 19 years old , I drove it for quite a fe w years and eventua ll y i1 got to th e point where ii needed fairly expensive repairs. bul by that time. I wa s married with ch il dre n. So with oth er pri orities, it go t p:trked. It is still parked as I am pay in g for coll ege, but. hopefu ll y. in a co uple of year s when that is done, I will be able 10 afford to bring it back out and start working on it again . I ha ve another ve hicle that I inheriled fr om my father when he pa ssed awa y. I re all y didn 't ha ve a panicu lar use for it at the tim e. but I felt ob!igatcd bec.-au se he felt stron gly about it. I tho ught that perh aps I should han g on to i1. As it turned out , it wa s an advanlage for rny mother . We pu t it at her house. She pays fo r comprehen sive in suran ce. It cos ts her $30 .00 a year or so methin g lik e that and it gives her a multi -c ar di sco unl. whi ch reduces her car in surance by over $2 00 .00 a year. He poin ted out that $200 .00 to a perso n on a fi xed in co me is not small chan ge. Like I said , I think it is en co uraging th e wrong 1hings. We loo ked at thi s duri ng my te nu re on Code Enforccmcnt. .. we loo ked at thi s iss ue a number of time s and as you nOl ed . Code Cnfo rce ment still agrees that the curre nt ordinance is perfectl y adequate. as~umin g it is en fo rced . And therein lie s part of th e pro bl em. The c urre nt ordinan ce is not being enforced . r m not sure how a more strin ge nt one is go in g 10 so lve th e problem . r m not blami ng Code Enforce me nt fo r thi s. I ha ve a neighbor who ha s three car s und er cover in hi s yard . I-l e ha s been 10 co urt and he sti ll ha s three ,:u s und er cove r in his yard. He ha s a cu upl c of truck s that ob viously aren'1 li censed and they are still sittin g th ere 100. So the ina bilit y to enfo rce the curre nt on e doesn't reall y bode we ll for a ne \1', more strin ge nt one . I j usl c:rn 't quite sec the log ic in it. he sa id . The current ordinan ce says yo u can only kee p nnr ve hicl e. I th ink that is reaso nable . h ha s to be nn an imper vious surfa ce. Well. Ih a! keeps th e weed s fro m gro win g up around it , so that makes se nse. It ha s to be covered . I ne ver quite und erstood that one. but I'm guess in g that pro babl y wns par! of 1he ori ginal ordinan ce , bec au se it reall y doesn't accomp li sh anyth ing. If yo u drive dow n my all ey. there is al least a dozen cars thal arc li ce nsed. park ed up and dow n th e all ey , in their dri veways and th e street s are cove red with vehi cle s. so rm not quite sure what coverin g th ese vehi cles :u.:compfo;he s. All in :111. he said . I think th e 1.:urrc nt ordinance addre sses th e iss ues . if th ey we re 10 be enforc ed .

I have j ust three quick po ints. The fir st 1wo are regard ing dcfinil ion. The fi rst one i~ th e defini tion of carpon . We have had an established definition of ca rport wi thin the Zo nin g Ordina nce and that defi niti on is "a sp:1t·c fo r housi ng or sm rn gc of motor ve hicles ;md enclosed, on not more than two sid es. by walls:· Under the propo se d Title 15 ame ndments th at definition is "a stru cture wi1h a roof. but lack in g a side wa ll." Ju sl so there arc no ques ti ons of in1e rprct.11 io n, she sai d, thi s propo sed definiti on m Tit le 15 , co uld sugge st that so me one co uld ha ve a carport with up to three wa ll s. Ju st as a recom me nd atio n to es ta bli sh con sistency and 10 avoid confusion, we wou ld recom mend th at Counci l cons id er adopt in g th e same defi niti on as the one with in the Zo nin g Ordinance. The seco nd de fi niti on is fo r hard surfa ce.

Th e onl y pro bl em I have is wi1h th e in surance and license plate. If you show yo u are pullin g a lot of money in1 0 the vehi cle and you arc fixi ng ii up, I reall y don't un de rstand why it has 10 be lice nsed or insured. But if yo u show proo f. you kn ow . he has already fixed th e en gin e aml th e tran smi ssion and he is workin g on th e bod y wor k:. It is a 1950 pic kup . It is an old lruck and he is try in g to restore it ... doing what he ca n. littl e by little . As fo r ns gell ing it in sured and lice nsed. I'm sure th ey can 't afford th at.

Ma yo r Bradshaw sa id she was shoc ked to find out that it hadn 't been back to Code Enforcement in thi s fo rm. City Attorney Brotzman sa id let me explain that one. In thi s fo nn, no, because Cou ncil ml\dc changes at their last Study Sess ion. It then we nl, wi th those changes bei ng limited 10 one vehicle in th e backyard, then there is a limi tati on on hours on the weekend that is still problematic, lang uage wise. II then we nt to fi rst reading. The meeting that was missed, was after first reading . So. they co uld ha ve made reco mmendat io ns. but th e Co mmin cc could not have made any changes, si nce you already approved it on fir st reading . Mayor Bradshaw sa id okay. Co uncif Meffi6cr GarrcttTaid I'm sorry, rffiissed 1hal. Let's try th at one mo re time . Th ere arc one or two things the y hi!ve n't discussed, which where th ose two items we changed in Study Sessio n. Ci ty Attorney Brotzman said that is co rrect. Co unc il Member Garrett said ot herwise th ey reco mm ended thi s ordina nce. Ci ty Attorney Brotzman sa id no. That is why yo u are havi ng somewhat of a prob lem . Normally, what co mes to Co uncil is exact ly what a co mmittee has approved. In thi s case. 1heir recom mendati on was to not cha nge the Code. Co uncil then made modi fi catio ns to the last draft. Ma yor Brad sha w sa id oka y. ls there any other discu ssion? Council Member Moore said th e pi cture s to ni ght were ve ry helpful , and in fact, I think so me of the chan ges being proposed in thi s ordinan ce are intended 10 pre ve nt so me of th ose th ing s th at we saw in the pictures. Co rrec t me if I'm wrong. but the Cadi ll ac wi 1hou1 th e doo rs, or a lop. or whee ls or eve ryt hing else ... l think that is per mi ssi ble under our c urrent rul es. It was on a hard surface . it was in the front yard . Ci1 y Auorn ey Brotzman said it wasn't covered. but if th ey cove red it, the answer is yes. Co uncil Membe r Moore said eve n today. before we go uny furth er, whal would slop 1ha1 ve hicl e from sining in th e yard in that fo rm today?

Bui th e answer is, he said, th a: blu e car co uld be in the fronl yard if ii was cmcrcd and on a hard surface . Counci l Member Moore sai d clearly we have so me kind of enforceme nt issue already . Mayor Brads haw sai d th at is right...so why cha nge i1 ifwc can·, enforce wh at we've got . Is th at what you are thinking? Co unci l Membe r Moo re sa id I think th at is a fair poi nt. If we can 't address th at OagrJIH vml 1tion now, th at wou ld be one co nce rn . I :i i ways wo nder why those thi ngs happen to begin with , he sai d. Ci ty Au orncy Brotzman sa id the answer is that if 1hcy cove red that it could remain in 1he fron1 yard. Under 1he proposed ordin ance. you would acl ually have to cove r it and put ii in 1hc backyard on a hard surface. Cou ncil Member Moo re sai d I still 1h ink th a1 is a fair objective. Even wi th tha t car next doo r to me covered, it st ill does not make me feel good. Mayor Brad shaw said ri ght. So how do we get that ?

I do n't have an y strong objec ti o ns to what we are do ing. I sec it as a wa y to move towards cleaner. safer streets , she sa id . Council Me mber Moore said I think the large ga ra ges are aciually being address ed in the UDC . I, too, agree th ere is a balance here a nd I st ill think s10rage of derelict ve hicl es in the fr o nt yard is not to rhe Ci t y's advantage . So, we have to find a way to get closer to th at ri ght o bjec ti ve , Maybe we ca n't do it com pl etely painless ly. I wo uld like a chance to di ssect to night's comments, he said .

So me of th is stuff has been here a lo ng tim e. she sa id, so we arc ba..:k to the e nfo rc e ment iss ue. We make more re g ul ati o ns and more rul es, conden se the m a nd put th em int o a prett y littl e package , but we arc still bac k to enforcement.

Coun cil Member Garrett said ·vould like to summarize. T his ordinance, the new o ne, appears lo Uo three things specificall y. It moves thi ngs off the fro nt ya rd , it mean s yo u can't have things in a carpo rt , a nd if you do move it to th e ba ck, the n the re arc certain rcgu la1io ns that we ha ve impoSt .d bused o n how it loo ks in the ba c k. Is th at sort of a reaso nable s ummar y o f what thi s does? City Att orney Bro1zman said tha t is correc t Englewood City Council April 21, 2003 Page 12 Co uncil Member Garret said those are all new items Now it seem s like when we ha ve our discu ss ion. he sa id . we should foc us on th os e pani cu lar three iss ues.

C:>Unc il Member Garrett sa id we need to talk aboul it. becau se we do hav e is sues reg arding enforceabi lity. ~l:\yor Brad shaw sai d maybe we should ask Code Enforcemen t to take a seri ous loo k al those picture s, as C..:-!.lncil Member Nabh ,lz said. And. write them up . Let 's use th e laws we ha ve and see if th ey wi ll do so meth ing. Council Member Moo re asked how do busine sses fit into thi s equation? City Au omey Brotzman said there is currently no UDC definition of a non•R zo ne , meanin g bu siness and industrial zones . The big exemptio n in the busi ness and industrial zones , is that if yo u have an occupation that docs work on cars , it is allowed, as licensing and zoning iss ues , for th ose bu sinesses, should address it. So if you ha ve auto sa lvage., obviously you are allowed to have these cars . Mayor Bradshaw pointed out th at auto sa lvage h11s a particull\f di strict , northwest Engl ewood . City Attorney Brotzman said absolutely. But, Ma y~ Bradshaw said. I sec auto salvage going on on Broadway. ')r, Ci ty Attorney Brotzman said, if you have car repair. I don't know if that is the issue or no t, but if you had a car repair business, the same wou ld be true . Thal is the big exemption to the bu siness and industrial district. If you are licensed to do that type of work, if y'J u arc zo ned properly in those areas, then yo u don 't have all these regulations. You simply have the zoning and licensi ng regulations followin g down upon you to regulate that. Mayor Brad shaw asked if there was 11nything else . She asked if they needed to address collectors se parately? Attorney Brotzm:m said if you get into the plate issue, I would enc ourage yo u not to rely u~n the State 's determination as 10 what type of plate s so mebod y gets . I don 't think it is going to be whJt yo u de sire on that. I think you want to address the type or cars yo u want to addres s. he said . Not rcl;ing on the Cou nt y Clerk to do thllt for yo u. MJyor Bradshaw as ked when Code Enforce ment meets agai n. Code Enforcement 's meeting sc hedu le wa s di sc ussed . Due to sc heduling problems . Cou ncil agreed to advise Code Enforceme nt of the Study Se ssion di scussion and invite them 10 attend . Mayor Bradshaw said let 's go ahead and put thi s on the May 191h age nd a on second reading. We can have a Stud y Session on thi s on Ma y 5111, at 6:00 P.M. in the Co mmunit y Roo m. Ma yor Brad shaw asked if that so undrd fair . Coun cil Member Moo re sa id that so unds good.
