Mr. 1-11 .chcoc k said the con ccm of tho se who li ve lherc is abou t densifying the population . There are
gro'-''1h 11utia11ves being sponso red all over the Uni ,_..d State s and in Co lorado . We have see n the inc rea se in
tr.tffi c that re sult s m ovcrpopul :uion and he asked that Cou ncil co nsider thill very seriousl y. Most of us
who li ve up there on 1he hill are mired and bo ught propen y there as our last home, so anything that is done
up th ere 1s go ing to impact us more than it would in a lot of neighborhoods , he said. He allowed that a
series of fluke s prob abl y h:ippened here . because normall y not 1hat many things could go wrong, but his
ex perience m being a neighbor wnh th e Ci ty 1hcre has been very negative . He concluded by sayin g he wa s
JUS I curi ous abou t the plans for th ,1 area, and he expressed a de sire for it 10 be sing le-famil y dwellings that
would not look as ta cky as s,,me of !he one s over on the Denver side .
~fo yor llrad sha w Jdvi sed !he audience that the aJea th ey were looking at for the mora1orium was in the
upper lcfl quildront of the Ci ty of Englewood map. which is zo ned R-2-C.
Ma yor Bradshaw :isked if there was an yone else who wished 10 address Counci l. There W3 S no one .
Co un ci l Member Yurchick :isked if the ordinance could be amended 10 pu1 the moratori um on multi-fami ly
housing or subdividing those lot s fo r more th:in one house.
City All ome y Brotzman advi sed. since the pennil is going to tak e :i t lea s! fo ur months, that Co unci l ma y
want to extend th e bounda ry and ha ve A VS 1um in their pennil a linle b11 l:i.te . They can have everyt hin g
in pla ce. bu t you are almost bumpmg int o your six months.
Co un ci l Memb er Yu rchi ck said, rather lhln JUS t soying no residential bui ldin g in 1hat area. they ould j ust
li mit it lo no subdi\•ision lnd no multi -fa mil y building . so tha1 eliminates the AVS iss ue .
Mayor Brads h:iw ag reed. If they w:i nt 10 build a single-famil y house, th is will not stop them. but if the y arc
build ing :myth ing but si ngle famil y. the mor:it orium will stop it. She felt thlt was what the resi dents
wlnled.
Cou nci l Member Yurc hick slid he wa s not against pulling a littl e hou se on a big lot . bu t pre\'en ling !hem
from buying one 101 and building severa l duple xes on it. or subd ividing it fo r two houses.
Ma yor Bradsha w said. if yo u look al th is ma p. I don't know why you cann ot exclude that block on Wes ley ,
bec au se we own the vacant lots th ere. The n we \\'O uld just have ii pick up :igain l l the alle y. and tak e it
non h. She fe ll 1ha1 bloc k co ul d be exemp1ed .
Ci ty Atl omey Bro tzman s.:11d the relson yo u cannot is bec:1use you arc trymg to be fair 10 evc 1yonc in tha1
same arc:1 . He fell ~Ir . Yu rchick's sugg estion was probabl y more wo rkab le .
Co unci l \\ember Yu rch1 ck felt ex panding to Adria ti c was more appro pn 3te . He feh the area :iround Evans
was more commercial th:rn rcs 1den11al. but allo wed 1ha1 it did nol matter if thi s wa s bemg limited to
