adv11ntage in workin g together to promo 1e our sales di strict Our onl y goal is m h3ve more people co me to
ou r businesses and buy ~tufTand use our services . Mr. Cohn pointed out , o.s a side benefit, if we're
successfu l in our efforts, the City will ge t more 10.x revenue fro m sale s 10.x . Three of us began !his gro up
about eight een months o.go , he sai d, by o.sking Co un,:i l to change th e law on:e a.gain , to nll ow si dewalk
sa les. Mr. Cohn sai d we reall y appreciat e you 1111 doing that. He said th e two sid e'w-alk sa le s las l year were
very success ful. Our grou p ha s grown and become more fo nnnl si nce Inst fa ll . We vo ted to become a pan
of the Greate r Englewood Chamber of Comme rce, and to have a bigger e\'ent this June than the sa le las t
yea r. That will incl ud e a sidewalk sa le 11nd a free conce n . We also vo ted to wo rk close ly with the Old
Tyme Fo.ir, which is being put on by the City in August. He said the mercho.n1s in the Cicy arc goi ng to
work clo sely on that event. He no1ed we voted to call ourselves "O ld Town Englewood" as a way to
idemify our sa les di strict li ke Old South Gaylord Street, Hi storic Old To,m Arvada and Historir.
Do,mtown Littleton . Mr . Calm said we've sele cted a logo 10 use as ou r marke ting symbol. In your pa cke t,
you've go t a lcne rh ead wi th our logo on ii. He stated the Englewood Cherre lyn Horsecar is perhaps the
best ~own early mass transit vehjcl e in the Uni 1ed States. Other pl aces use d horse cars eve n aro W1d
Denve r. He added there 's only one place where the horse got to rid e in the car and that's here in
Eng lewood . He no ted pic tures of the Cherrelyn Horseca r, are in railroad books all aroW1d the co un try and
some mnss transi t books as we ll . Mr. Cohn stated this is a great, positi ve image and for that reaso n we
decided 10 use thal fo r o•Jr symbo l. We co me 1oday to ask you to make a permanent der,ignation of the
district o.s "O ld Town Eng lewood". He sa id we envis ion the use of the "O ld Town Englewood" name to
tell potential cus tomers we're in origina l Eng lewood, not some place else tha t has an Englewood postal
address . And, he noted, havir,g a geogra phi c locato r will simplify our ad ca mpaigns and wi ll devel op a
wiique identification fo r our area . \V,:. think this w:ill be 11 real good thin g. He sa id mos t ofus in the
busines s di strict are de stinati on sto res, peo ple co me to sec us on purpose and 101s of lime s they hnvc no
idea that th ere arc oth er busine sses up and down the streets that thL"y al so mi ght have a need for. He added
when peo ple come to vis it the hobb y store, acousi-ic music . Glnss Ware house, th c su rplus store , Guyi,; and
Dolls, or the Mini Flea Ma n th ey don 't ren lizc how many un iq ue other sto res are just right in thc
ne ighborhood . Mr. Cohn said we envision "Old To wn Englewood" as a way to communicate with the
vishors at the various stores as to how th ey ca n co me in contttc t with the c ther sto res. He said it's almost
like we're a drive through shopping m1 ll . We ha ve some different kinds of ideas for promoting our
businesses fo r the folks drivi ng up nnd do wn Broadwa y and the sid e streets. We want peo pl e to learn about
us and stop nnd shop . He stated we'd like CoW1 ci l to con.o:;ider making a perma nent designation of our
name as "Old Tov.11 Englewood". I was trying 10 anticipate what kind of questions you might have or
negative po ;sibilities, he said, but I couldn 't think of any, so it seemed like it wo uld be a good idea tu co me
and talk to you about this .
Mr . Cohn thanked Council and asked if th e;-e we re any questions .
Mayo r Pro Tern Ga rr e!'t sa id I think what we 'll do , at Council's discretion, is talk :ibout this during Co un cil
Members' Choice and if it's some th ing we want to ex pl ore we'll probabl y do ii through a Study Session
fo rum. He no1ed tha1 prese ms a better opponunicy 10 di scuss th is iss ue and ex plore the id eas. 1'11 sure if
tha!'s what we decide w:'11 be co ntactin g you and your grou p to help pani cipate in that, he said.
Mr. Co hn snid th.'lnk you.
CoW1cil Member Yurchick ha d a question about the size of the a.rea . He said on th e fro nt, say it runs from
Yale tc Oxfo rd, but the majority of the busine sses arc Yale to mayhc a littl e so uth of Hampden. Mr. Cohn
said w:: tried to figwe that one out . We have pictures of the trnin t.Jr::ks that run :ill the way up 10 Oxford .
From the old Engle wood hi story books we sec old busine sses th at run all the way from Ya le up . There arc
picture s of businesses and houses tha t used 10 be do wn where we arc right now . He noted we we re
somewh:it arbi tra ry in choosing our limits .
Mr . Yurchick noted that yo ur area is Ya le to Oxford, but like most of the peop le that have signed your
peti tion are basicn li., from Hilntpden and nonh, :ind maybe a linle so uth of Hampden .

motion. the execution of a Sofiware License and Services Agree ment with Oracle Co rporali on for the
purchase of Ente rprise Re so urce Plannin g (ERP) software . He said before the Council is a
recommendat ion on the part of what we call the IBIS steering committee , composed of stnfT representatives
from across the dcpanmcnts lis1ed in the Council Co mmun icatio n to purchase from Oracle Corpo ration,
finance, hum:m resources and payroll systems , under their versi on 11-1 softwa re. He stated as it 's been
no1cd to Council on nwncrous occasions at Study Session, this has been th e result of a very extensive
process. As man y as a hundred s1afT throughout th e organiza tion ha ve been involved . Over approximate ly

eleven months identifying the business process for improve ment , Iss uing a fom'ill l reque st for proposal s, to
analyzing, in depth, tho se proposals , including in depth sc ript ed dcmonstr1u lo116, He: said, based on a
number of facto rs including cost, the functi onal capabilit ies of th e sonwn re, M:hn ic al capabilh lcs of the
software and the business parmcr fit with Oracl e Corporation, staff is rcco rnme1:dinQ that Co uncil 11pprovc

favorable tenns and com l:rions , incl1-6dL-'1g II very substantial reduction in th e li censi ng cost, wh ic h is
approximately 61% below the list price for the so ftware . He ad ded we have also been succ css l\JI in
guaranteeing a reduced cost saucturc should lhc Cily dcciJc 10 purchu c oddllio nal lic co 11cs. Mr. In gle sai d
the duration of that is through the end of May 2003 . He sta te I we 've al so, agreed with Oracle 10 ca p th:
ongoing suppon costs of the system for four years , at 5% per year, and have gai ned ac cess to Fedeml GSA
pricing for ongoing tra ining servic es . Again, he said, this has resulled in a substanti al cos t 10 the City based
on the budget estimates. He slate d we originally estimated a linle bit ov er 3 million doll ars , however, the
cost for this co ntra ct for the software is 11pproximatcly 531 8,000 .00 , so we arc very happ y wi1h that result .
Director Ingle said he would be happ y to answer any questi ons .

(ii) Director ln gle presented a recommendation from the Department of Jnfonnation
Technology. Finance and Administrative Services, and Hwnan Resource s to approve , by motio n, the
execution of a professional serv ic es con1r.1ct with Solb1Jurne Computer, Inc ., to suppl y implc mc n111t ion
servi ces for the Orncle Enterpri se Re~ Planning (ERP) software implementation. He stated that one of
the issues that staff felt was very impl n our selection of the complete solution was the ability to ha ve
more of an opponunity to pick and choose one of the most imponant and costly elements in any enterp ri1e
resourc e pl anning system implemcntarion . And that 's the selec tion of an implemcntalio n finn As noted 10
Council be fo re , the typical approach has been to bid the software and impl ementation services at the same
time . He advised implementation se rvic es actually end up being one of, if not th e most, su bs tantial cost of
a new system procurement and also one of the most risky. He noted staff went ahead with a rather ec lec tk ,
compared to other organizations , appro ac h of bidding the servi ces aspect separately after arriv ing at a lis t of
finali sts for the software . Mr. lngle said after an extensive RFP proc ess, extensive interviews and a look at
the busine rs ba ckground of seve ral firms , the City had chosen Solboume Computi:rs . In c. of Boulder to
pro vide tl'.c implementation service s. Several factors similar to the RFP process for the software
procure':4\Cnt camc into play including the experience and qualifications of Solboume and the approach that
they proposed, to meet the City 's objectives. He added of parti cular imponance, was the qualifications of
the staff that would be nssigned to the City and also, the overall cost. He said the City has a budget of
$1 ,550,000.00 for this purpose and lhe Solboume agreement is below lhat allowing approximately an 8%
contingency as well . Again, he stated, this decision invol ved the IBIS ste ering comminee, who I'd reall y
like to commend for a substantial amount of effort that 's been expended over the last year, while still doing
their regular jobs. They devoted a great deal of time to this project. He uaid we feel that the
Solboume/Oracle partnership has good experience , especially locall y, and we respectfull y reque st lhal
Council approve this agreement.

(iv) Director Olson pre se nted 11 rec ommcn dati l' from the Safety Sen•ices
Department to approve, by motion, a contract with CSI for the cons truction of a metal storage facility at the
Englewood Service Center, in the 11mount ofSl0?,6 16.00 . He suued I think the Council Communi cation lD
front of yr is pretty se lf explanatory, including the pictures in there. It will be located at the Servicentcr.
He sai d wh11t l would like to add, is originally we thought this might cost $200 ,000 .00 and we were able to
get it do,vn 10 $107,000.00. He said as you can see it is going to be 11 split , $40,000 .00 will co me from tJ:c,
Publi c Improvement Fund and the rest will come from our Forfeiture Fund. Mr. Olson added we think wt·
will have the costs covered on this pretty well and as you can sec there 's plenty of room there for the
command van. Again, he noted it's just one more need for storage spa ce and th at's an on going problem, nf
course. in th e City with our organization.

Ms . Nabholz said yes th ey have . In fact there have been postcards sent. Ms . Grazuli s advised that nol
every busin ess has received one . Ms . Nabholz asked which business she wns Jlking about. Ms . Grazulis
noted the business where she works has no knowledge of it. That 's just one, she said, and if there 's one
there could be more . Ms . Nabholz said I will inform them of that, because they really want to stay W~f!f,.
the horse tracks were and it goes up to that area . So I will inform them that that part or town has no!
received any notification. They meet the first Wednesday of every month at the Co UJ1 try Buffet.
Ms . Grazuli s asked if th ey have parti cipation from other are as, be sides those two blocks, from other areas
from th e 2700 bl ock to the 4000 block . Ms . Nabholz said there were a cou ple of pri,1ting shops further up
and one of them donated the logo .
Ms . Grazu!is said at one time Art Scibelli had the four areas designate d and I was wondering when· we
stood on those four area !i, becaus e these don't follow the same bound aries.
City Manager Sears said we 've had discussions with staff about that. Mr. Brotzman advised that they are
part of the comp plan and when we have the Study Session we'll bring those forward . Ms. Grazulis said
that will coincide . Mayor Pro Tern Garrett said I agree with that, there needs to be some interface between
that Bnd thi s.
Mr . Garren asked if everyone would be in favor of a Study Session to discuss this. All agreed. Mr. Sears
noted that the fir st one coming up would be May 6th, and right now I don 't think we've got anything
scheduled for that so , it would work out if that's okay with the Co uncil .
Ms. Wolosyn stated May 6th there is a regular meeting . I would iike for us not to schedule those so heavily
that people sort of have to clip along. She felt is was better to wait and go on a night when people can be
there longer. Various Study Session dates were discwsed . Council Member Wolosyn said to go ahead and
schedule this issue for May 6th •
(ii) Mayor Pro Tern Garrett said it's been requested , that Council approve the
issuance of the ERP hardware purchase order to Forsythe Solutions . He noted that we ha ve a brief
pre se ntation on that.
Director Ingle said as discussed in today 's Co uncil Study Session we have an opportunity to address yet
anoth er se parate issu,: associated with the ERP syst :m procurement. He advised hardware is an element to
the procurement that is not handled by any of the ot.ier panics that Council approved contracts with today.
He said when we were going out to bid we came dowt, with two finalists for software, ')racle the firm
selected and a competitor called SAP . He noted the two finns operate their softwa re on very different
platforms , so we wt.1.· unable to expedite the issuanc e of the hardware RFP until we kn ew we were going
with one product or the other. Mr. Ingle said we have undenakeu a fonnal RFP for procurement of the
Oracle hardware platfonn, we have receiYt:d fiv e respons es and in the interes t of expediting the
implementation, the reque st has been made that Council approves staff's desire to issue 11 purchase order 10
Forsythe Solutions. The City Clerk has given Council the copi es of a recommendation memo. He advi sed
Forsythe is the lowest bidder overall , including on-going maintenan ce charges, which we look at as bein g
significant overall in tenns oftl1e long term cost of ownership of the system He said we are approximately
SSO. 000 .00 below the budget thnt was originally anticipated and in fact , the RFP Nas extended for two days
13!.t week as a result of notice that came from the manufacturer of a new costing structure that ended up
sav ing the City approximately S40,000.00 extra, so, our timing was very good on that. He stated Forsythe
also has n very good reputation in tcntlS of the installation services and their relationship with the
m3nufacturer relative to maintenance services. He mentioned, just as a side note , that the r~gional
distribution center for Fors ythe is loca ted within the City limits of Englewood as well .
Direc tor Ingle asked if he co uld answer any quest ions. There were uone.

(iii) Co uncil Member Yurchi ck sai d he had a citizen re(!UCS I. He s1111ed J g.!nllcman
came in and\ as talking to me the other da y, I guess th ere 's a gnat probl em on lhc hill . He said I'll tell you
his story and I 'II 1ell where we go from here. Accord ing to the genllcman, Harvard Gulch used to drain
into the City sewer right there 1t Co unty line. Now th ey've capped that off wit'l concrc-le , so the water
runs down into that open area in Denvc and j us t stan ds and becomes stagnant water . Mr. Y 11rc!iick said
the ci1 izcn has caught the gnats and taken them to the stale and they've confirmrd that they have co me from
stagnant water .
Mayor Pro Tern Garren asl.cd if the stagnant water wa s in Denver.
Mr. Yurchick said the water is actually in Denver, ii comes down Harvard Gu lc h and according to him it
used to dn:iin in10 our sewer system so me how , but thal's been concreted over .
Ci!)' Manager Scars said Harvard Gulch, as it drains in10 the Plane , is in Denver.
Mr. Scars asked , ifht: was talkin g abo ut whe re the City Ditch used to go into Harvard Gulch. Mr .
Yuchick said I'm not sure .
Mr. Yurch1ck said on the west side of Denve r and the cast side of Englewood , on Harv11rd Gulch,
somewhere in there , it used to run into some kind of a sewer pipe which h11s been concre1ed ov r.r. Now it
just runs out inlu flat land on the Denver side , he said, and even though the water's in Denver, ll originates
in Englewood . Englewood used lo drain it off somehow.
City Manager Sears said the Utilities Department can take a look 111 that and there are a lot of gnats up :md
do wn th e Platt e River especi all y m early Spring and e11rly Fall . You can 't bicyde there without see ing
people with ma sks on .
Council Memb er Yurchick sa id he see ms to think it 's wo rse this yea r and he 's zeroed in on the problem
area . Mr. Sears sai d we will do II fol)l)w up on th:!.:.
