Thosc project members will be providin& a lilllc plT~on and will be tbcR to answer questions on lhc site selection process and miuircmcats for an LRT flcility for our soulhcast corridor project. As Y'"' know, he said, the existing LRT fa lity that Rm bas, will need to be, not replaced, bul added on lo, IS far as the capacity, due 10 the additional ligblrail ,'Chicles and mileage for the southwest and southeast corridors. Those project team memben will alao be able 10 provide some informalioo oo the decision process, which will obviously involve the Rm 1111ft'. Mr. Warner said hejUSI WllllCd to mention, that IS the project director he will be working with Rm quite closely, this is a multi-modal project and will continue to be a multi-modal project until it is built, in bis opinion, and he will be worting with Rm very closely in the development or that The LRT facility ii, obviCN1Sly, to serve the LRT portion of the project.

He aid be would hope that is something Council would be willing lo participate in and II least allow staff to pudcipllc ill. So that is solllClbiDg Couocil might want to consider and lhal is somabing that we an: here to offer, he said He olfered to MSWOr any questions Council might have.

We cwrcntly have a scpmle, largc tap that wc put in for the iniption there and we roally don\ have a need for that, so we certainly support the requast that the HisloricaJ Society is brin&ing forward.

Mr. Jcntins thanked Council and said they appn:ciate it 7. No■-,cbeduled Vblton (a) Gary Kozacd<. 1260 West Oxford Avenue, passed out hls letter and some pic:llll'el to Council. He stated it WIS brought to biJ ancntion when be attcmplcd to go have a haircut, somo ...i parking problems and be thought a lot of it has to do with after having a severe accident he is a lot more cognizant of some problems going on. He said he iJ here regarding parking enfon:ement around Swedish Hospital. Whlle be WIS geaillg a haircut acroa from S....Usb Holpital be bad to go a bloclt and a bait away to puk. There ~ scvenl cars puked there and the penon cutting hls hair said the one car bad been there for four hours In the 1, minute parl<ing zone . She bad called the police depar1mcnt at that point in time, or sometime earlier In the morning and bad bad DO ,upome. But the penon next door, 11111 has the store right next to her selling clolhing or whatever, went in and called and the police officer did show up then. Wbeo the police officer 'MIS ~ he said, be wont out to talk to her reganling the problem. She statod that the porting enforeement position bad been ellminalcd as it was no longer CCODOllliclJJy feuible. Mr. Kozacck stated that the comment was alao made that the S....Ush employees we,e g,:tling their puking tickets cancelled or dismissed. He advised thal some of the problems are the two hour parking on both the east and west sides of Pennsylvania, you have two aimtment buildings In the block bctwccn old Hampden and U.S . 2a,, both with limited parking spoces . The church porting lot is on the east side and it has unavailable parking, it is all restricud for DO public and 0W11CRJU1 curb culS throughout the area. speaking of that two block area when: we bad VICll.cd Pennsylvania to go ahead and allow SwediJh toexpond. All of these items are difficult to discuss for the business OWDCtS, bccauac they are restricting their ability to get customers to them . He said this includes the SMdisb parking for their little shop they have ac:n,a the -oa Pennsylvania. Mr. Kozacct said biJ question to Council iJ is Swedish in compllancc with regard to the DIDllber of parking spoces required by our own City ordinances, based on the volume of people using the tbrcc medical office buildings. the hospital, the rdiabilitatioa center :ind :ill or their employees on all shifts .

He said be knows Council Member Waggoner has recciYed a couple of lettcn from Harold Woods and Jim Zadie and, be undenlandJ, there have been some other lettm. He said be would DOI go into delail on those as they are addresse4 in his letter to Council. The reason be mentioned those two names is to show that the parking problem isnl som ething that bas just started, but lhat it has been there for a long time. He said be has some suggestions be would lilce to throw out to Council . He said bow aboot doubling the fines for the overtime parking in the botpital mnes, that could be an ordinance and they could post a liatc sign under the parking sign stating fines are double. You can even go one step fwthcr, be suggested, and pd them up in the .;pecial pennit mnes around lbe High School and the elementary schools to add more p.fety there . How ohout restricting the times to one bour7 Especially on the real problem strcclS. Every time be bas ever gone to the hospital, unless it was goii,g In be surgery or an emerga,cy room visit where they hrl-e a parking struc-urc over there, if you ar-e going to be there more than an hour yoo should real ly be going to the parking strn:tut-e anyway. So, be stated, hls conccro is lhat we are DOI coforcing that over there and we are allowing • lot of things to take place and a lot of hazards. He said be doesnl !mow bow many tickets wcrc issued when Englewood High School bad a walk through on their graduation, but there were numerous ticltelS cited up at the High School and yet right over here, blocking and obstructing views where there is a lot of foot traffic and stuff, as they will sec in • some of the pbotos, with the sun and stuff and some of them parking clear out to the comer, that does create • • • lllliffood City c .. acu l1111t21,1999 .... , )b.,,.,.,, n3 l ,,.,,m't.

She said she noticed in the Rocky Mountain News !Oday about the opening of the Cloduc 111d she wondered what the status WIS there. It WIS a very nice article. Mayor Bwns stated there was III article in the Post on SWlday . City Manager Sears advised we have been working extremely bani, Lance Smith and Chris Obon ID particular, to uy to make sun: they open, work with them on the openin& It has worked out rdaliwly ,...u and in Council's packet there WIS information that lilled out a oumber nf things, including the Deplrtmcm ofHealth and water roquirm,enu that arc outside our jurisdiction. Mr. Sears stated that whal we MIiied to do WIS provide them, as early as possible, a list of things that they have to do so we don't act inlo red tagging them the night of the evcnl Tonight is one event that has been postponed to Tbunday, but we an: still not ccr1ain as to whether or nol they will comply tomorrow night, with all the code , when the doors arc open. City Manager Sears advised we have been in .ilmost hourly contact with them and the colllractor to let them mow JJRCisdy what the an:as arc and they are behind. It is putting a lot of pressure on us 111d on them to move ahead, but we arc really trying to aa:onunodale. From a liq,.10r code standpolnl they have to meet cer1ain requiraoents. City Manager Sears asked that Chris Olson update Council with the latest informalioo this evening no where we arc. Director Olson advised be was over there tonight and the only people in the building arc coosttu..1ion worl<cn frantically putting things together. The pony WIS scheduled for tonight and we just waolcd to go over there and make sun: people wcn:n, in the building, but that is IIOl the case. Wort is moving forward frantically and the last word they got tonight WIS that they will be in there all night long, he said. Lance Smith and Ben Greene were over there earlier and they feel that they an: probably about 90% to complctioo on the things we demanded be done. They had their water tcSI, apparently, and Tri-County has given them an okay. Ben Greene will go on in there tomorrow and test the fire a1ann and the monitoring systems, so they are very, very close. Mr. Olson commented that bow they will be able to open tomorrow night be was not sure, because the place is just full nf people working in there and construction equipment and., on. But as City Manager SeaJS indicated, wc will, tomorrow aftanoon ... and Lance Smith conveyed to the supcrvi,or o,,er there ... that after 3:30 p.m. we will DOt be going back there later thal night to do mnn, inspections. That will be the cutoff point and be will have to have thooc requests in by that time, odierwi5c we won, go on bod<. So wc will meet tomorrow and at this point. surprisingly they arc about JO% away from at least being able to open given the criteria that we established for them. What conditioo it will be in at that point be just doesn't know. But, be said, if you drive by there now there arc people scrambling all over thal building and they are close . Council Member Habcnichl nolcd there WIS a lot nf activity over th, weekend. She said she thinks it is important that they open under the codes that we have and at the sai ne time she thinks that wc are being very coopenlive in working together and partnering. So she is hoping they can get all of that done. Director Olson said be would have to say that our people in building and in the Fm: Manhall's Office have really wolkcd with them much more than they usually Jo on most projects. They understand what they have to act done to be in compliance. So, he stated, if this is nol done, just from a life safety standpoint, then we just cannot let them proceed.

Council Member Habenicht said she thillks it is a real fioe line between being supportive of businesses aod construetioo and watching out for the well being of the citizens. She opined that our !talf does a wonderful job. City Manager Sean said he knowa Lance Smith and Chris Olson arc doing a wondcrftll job of working through this. 4.

They would like us to take over the maintenance of that 111d p,y us on an boorty basis for the mataials thal we provide to everybody else . Council Member Bradshaw and Mayor Bums commented thal that makes sense. So, City Manager Scan said, we arc going to go libead llld do that. Council Member Waggoner said that will be a conlracl, just like with the schools . City Manager Scan said thal is right Council Member Gan.'il.isml ifwe arc prOIJ:CICd OD the liability side. City Attorney Brotzman advised that the City bas an overall ,greemeut with the Lions Club. The agreement currcnlly provides that they will take care of maintenance and yes it does provide for liability protection for us. (b) City Manager Sears said Ibey did have tile Coacret, Utility discussion for the Study Scssioo earlier and be does not know the urgency or gelling inlo this. He knows we arc in concrete construetion season and that this is to aa:ommodale people who want to do other work on their property in addition to conattt. He DOied if Council would like to talk about that this evening we can do that If then: is not any urgency WC can pm this olf IO the next Council Study Session, he said. Council Member Waggoner noted iftbey have started into the prognm already there may indeed be people out there who want to piggy lack on the project in order to get driveway work done or service walk work done . And, be said. it is much easier to get that done at the same time. OOlcrwisc you have to wait until after that is finished and it bas cured and you have to bring somebody else in. Council Member Bradshaw advilod Ibey ran into a little problem in Arapahoe Acres over the handicapped area and Ken koa was kind cuougb to respond, very quickly, within mimics. And Ibey found out that even though it is ADA specs OD that that we still need to notify residents when K is going to 01:cur and there was some stuff that M..

DiRCtor Ross explained thal buically lhey wanled IO tailt about two issues. One was IO dqx'8I ....t, CUii and what happens is we 11111 doing tbe work wilh tbe Cmxfflc Utility Pmgram and a porticm of It is in the driveway area and Jl"'Ple aren\ very fond of their Hollywood curbs and they want tbe cwt, cut~ In response IO Milyor Bwns, Mr. Ross C.'Plained lhal a depressed cwt, cu is a tnullitiou wbon: ii comes down and leaves about an inch or zero of a lift. So buically what harAJCDS is instrad of driving.., over a four inc,\ dcplh al cwt, walk they will go ....,. one in ~ or no inch, ii is n lot more g111tlu.il. It dcvala tbe jar you !eel as you an, drmagialoyourdmeway. We Fl illlO tbe situalion where,.. have the Utility Pmgram to rq,lace concrete tbat is in poor condition and we explain Ibis IO tbe people. But we do work with the Jl"'Plc and explain that if ,0% al th.:, driveway is in bid condition we will go ahead aad replace it all and give you the depressod cwt, cut F.--Jy, be atlvisctl, we haw pRlly good Jl"'Pic out In the field and lhey will even take 1h11 IO tbe next slop and they will look al the romainins ponioa and if ii looks like it will go bid in two or throe years, even though it doesn't meet Ibis year's !<St, lhey will still go abeatl and rq,lace it Ho explained thal"" have DOt receival any complaiJD cm i~ 90 we feel that is the way IO continue IO handle that situation, but we WUICd IO nm it by Council aad make sure ii meeta with CGuDcil's approval . Mayor Bumi commentod that if ii im\....., don\ fix it Director Ross explained Iha! onsilc concrete is a little difrcm,t story and we take a bands off apprca:b ID 1h11. We buically give the penon tbe name of our amlllCIOr and phone number and they can coalact them and try to scbodule their work . Typically our concrete conllaCIOI' is a little more expensive than a Jot of the people who do this kind of work. lie noted thal ii seems that cveryt,ody bas a brother-in-law or a uncle, or a friend of a friend who bas a coople of finishing tools anti a pick-up truck and inslcatl going lhrough our contractor. Din:ctor Ross noted that wbat"" haw in tbe economy today is, !bes Jl"'PIC, when lhey an, worting cm this program, their finishing aew is scbcdulal for IM> Olhcr jobs as IOOll as they finish Ibis job. So they an, rcally DOI too approad,able in lllday'a ecoaomy to do thal ldatl ofwort. Bulcally, be lldvilod, 'Ml just f'acililalc them, give them anameantllllllllberofwho to contact and if they have any luck fine, if they don\ they can have a brother-in-law or some ftimtl of• friend. We don\ rcally want IO go any farther, be said. Obviously you get ialo libations wbon: Ibis work is done IO our spocilicllions ... it is well definotl ... you have IO do things exadly i:a:onling to our ,pecificatiom and standards, and -,,ce you deviate anti pt off the public way ... some people like a swirl fillish, some like a broom finisb ... liley have dilr~ideuand dilrercDI expectations and ii is a little difficult for III IO enforce Ibis persons e.pectations and what they want It is better that lhey enforce their expectations and they CDlcr inlO a collllllct with a conlrlClor. Council Member Waggoner said it would sure help ifyoo would givo lbat collllllctor a little nutlgeantl say we ,voultl appreciate it ifyoo would work with these Jl"'Ple. Mr. Roa Slaltd we could cer1ainly do thal. The nudge part is kind of dillicul~ ii is kind of a tough spec to write when you say thou sbal~ becauae when you liWt pulling thole mandalea In there, then unfortunately if they rcally don\ WIIII IO do that they mighl price ii in a way that is DOI vc,y favorable . We can certainly indicate on our specs lbat we will expect the Jl"'Ple who bid oor work IO do this, but i• 7'0n\ be any cheaper, but we CID al least give them a beads up when they bid. PircclDr Ross ulwl Cow.ciI Member Waggooer if he had any ideas as to how we can do this . Mr. Waggou said DO, ·, ,,. it ,eema like it wooltl be easier once the dump truck is 001 there and they have machinerJ 001 there, to g., ahead aotl remove the Olhcr concrete at tbe same time. Director Roa DOied Iha! he used to be in the couniclioa businesa and tbe limes were a lot leaner when he was doing it When we were _.,ached by Jl"'PIC, wbco "" were out in tbe field. we gave them a break, becauae there was DO point in charging this person mobilization foes, when I was llreatly charsins that to la""9NCltyC-U J-21,lffl •·1• Ibo Cily, be 111d.
