f have had the opportunity to review the proposed ordinance on temporary
employment services with my client. You have indicated that the City is
agreeable to the language as proposed by David Hammond wherein the
amortization time period will extend to the end of the current license period or
within one hundred eighty ( 180) days from the effective date of the ordinance,
"whichever is later". This, then, will extend the time period for my client to
operate her employment service up to May 23, 1998.
You aJso indicated that the City of Englewood would grant a new license to my
client to authorize her to operate a temporary employment agency up to t he
date of May 23, 1998. Similar to Peakload, it is our request that Printers
Personnel Temporary Employment Service's license be renewed and extend ed
until May 23, 1998 before the City Council passes the amended ordinance .
With that understanding, we will not object to the new ordinance . Ple as e
contact me immedjatefy if this letter misstates the proposed changes to t h e
proposed ordinance.
Very truly yours,

COUNCIL GOAL AND PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION
The Englewood City Council passed Ordinance No. 50, Series of 1997 on June 16, 1997. In
a Court action by a licensed temporary service , the Court found that an immediate
cessation of business would cause irreparable harm to those businesses. The testimony at
the hearings was that it would take from two to twenty-four months to move this type of
business. The Engelwood Planning and Zoning Commission and the Englewood City
Council have previously determined that temporary employment services are not
compatible with B-1 and B-2 uses. The Englewood Planning and Zoning Commission and
the Englewood City Council have determined that temporary services were uses that were
never allowed in the B-1 and B-2 districts and therefore would not be a nonconforming
use. The City finds that it is in the best interest of the citizens and businesses of the City to
allow some time for the affected businesses to close.
RECOMMENDED ACTION
Adoption of a Bill for an Ordinance adding an amortization period to Ordinance No. 50,
Series of 1997.
FINANCIAL IMPACT
Should eliminate claims of action and current litigation.
