City Manager Mccown stated on Page 5, the first paragraph -"Administrative Assistant Brown • • • restrictions placed therein.", did not clearly explain the outline of the discussion at the meeting. City Manager Mccown passed out copies of a suggested revised paragraph and requested that this paragraph be entered as the correction. The correction read as follows: "Administrative Assistant Brown discussed the third recom- mentation from the Water and Sewer Board which conerns Supplement 18 Valley Sanitation District. The Board had previously requested this item be withdrawn because there was concern about the addition of an industrial area and industrial operations dumping pollutants into the sewer system. The Board wants to make any new buyer in the area aware of the restrictions that are in the City of Englewood. The Sanitation District has agreed that the ordinance of the City concerning sewer service be recorded with the County; therefore, anyone coming into the area would be aware of these restrictions beforehand. Now that the amendment to Supplement 18 has been approved, the Water and Sewer Board is recomnendinft approval of Supplement #8 to Valley Sanitation District. City Manager Mccown stated the second correction was to be made on Page 12, first paragraph; the appraiser's name is mis- spelled. The correct spelling is Baughhar.

Mr. Coleman stated the downtown area needs this parking space for parking for its customers. Mr. Coleman asked Council if they would set up a study group to study the feasibility of purchasing the land in question or work out some form of trade with the Public Service Company for land presently owned by the City so this area in question would remain a parking area. Councilman Smith stated the Central Business Conmittee's reco11111endation to the City in order to encourage businesses to invest private money in downtown Englewood is to secure parking in two areas: 1) the area of which Mr. Coleman spoke by acquiring the Public Service land and as much of the parking area behind the building as possible; and 2) the land on the west side of Broadway at the southern most end of the 3400 block. COUNCILMAN MANN MOVED TO DIRECT THE CITY MANAGER TO DIRECT HIS STAFF IMMEDIATELY TO CONTACT THE PUBLIC SERVICE COM- PANY TOWARDS THE FEASIBILITY OF PURCHASING THE PUBLIC SERVICE LAND OR SOME TYPE OF LEASE; SOME TYPE OF TRADE OFF OR ANY POSSIBLE METHODS THE STAFF CAN COME UP WITH.

Assistant City Attorney DeWitt answered affirmatively. * * * * * * April 17, 1978 Page 4 Pre-scheduled visitor, Municipal Court Judge Lou Parkinson, appeared before Council and discussed the two resolutions concern- ing transfer of funds to Municipal Court as well as the differences between the two. Judge Parkinson stated the resolution prepared by the City Manager's staff did not include the additional ~5,000 he understood would be transferred for the cost of a facility study; and secondly, he thought the Source of Funds should not come from Fines and Forfeitures. As a result, Judge Parkinson stated he felt compelled to submit another resolution reflecting the addi- tional $5,000 with the Source of Funds to come from the General Fund Balance, and requested Council to consider this resolution instead. Judge Parkinson then answered questions from the Council concerning the two resolutions. Councilman Mann queried if there was some portion of the study made by Ron Rinker that would be appropriate for use now. Councilman Mann stated he was in favor of the resolution submitted by Judge Parkinson. City Manager Mccown pointed out that the $5,000 dif- ference is based on Council's direction to staff to prepare the resolution omitting this figure. COUNCILMAN SMITH MOVED TO TAKE AGENDA ITEM SE, A AND B, (THE TWO REFERENCED RESOLUTIONS) OUT OF ORDER. Councilman Weber seconded the motion. Upon a call of the roll, the vote resulted as follows: Ayes: Nays: Absent: Council Members Smith, Clayton, Mann, Williams, Weber, Taylor. None. Council Member Harper. The Mayor declared the motion carried. * * * * * * Councilman Weber requested that the resolution submitted by the City Manager's staff be designated Se(a) and the other re- solution submitted by Judge Parkinson as 5e(b). Mayor Taylor agreed. RESOLUTION NO. 31, SERIES OF 1978 A RESOLUTION AMENDING THE 1978 GENERAL FUND BUDGET. COUNCILMAN MANN K>VED TO PASS THE RESOLUTION SE (B) SUBMITTED BY JUDGE PARKINSON AS RESOLUTION NO. 31. Councilman Weber seconded the motion. April 17, 1978 Page 5 Councilman Mann discussed his reasoning for sponsoring the resolution submitted by Judge Parkinson. City Manager Mccown stated the Judge's recoDIDendations consisted of three parts: 1) additional people; 2) $6,000 for re- modelinf to handle the additional people; and 3) a request to hire an arch tect to re-do the present facility or design a new facility. City Manager Mccown stated the Council directed the first two parts be initiated and decided to consider the third part of the recom- mendation at a later date. Councilman Smith stated he agreed that the funds should be taken from the General Fund Balance; but the general overall facility study should be handled by the staff with a report issued to Council and not by the Court. Councilman Clayton stated he was against the resolution for the following reasons: 1) the $5,000 should be handled differ- ently; and 2) he was ready to vote for two additional employees but not three. Councilman Weber spoke against the resolution because he felt the ·$5,000 should not be included in this resolution even though there ia a need to have a facility study conducted. Council- man Weber stated he thought the study should be handled by the staff and not the Court. Judge Parkinson stated he was not concerned how the study was administered just that the study be done expeditously; however, he thought hie resolution and his contacting someone to do the study would be more consistent with the resolution passed several weeks. Mayor Taylor discussed the comprehensive facility study that was conducted by Ron Rinker several years ago. Mayor Taylor suggested that the Judge and the City Manager pull the plan and go over it; and come back to the Council with a report advising whether the study is still useful and/or provide suggested revisions. Councilman Mann withdrew his motion to pass Resolution No. 31. Councilman Weber withdrew his second to the motion. COUNCILMAN WEBER MOVED TO PASS RESOLUTION NO. 31 5E(A) SUBMITTED BY THE CITY MANAGER WITH THE FOLLOWING CHANGES UNDER SOURCE OF FUNDS: DELETE MUNICIPAL COURT FINES AND FORFEITURES AND ADD GENERAL FUND BALANCE.

City Manager Mccown stated there is very little he and the Judge can do with the present plans in order to come up with a idea on where the Court facilities should be or what to do on re- modeling the present building; and the motion just passed excluded him from contacting any outside help because there are no funds for spending on such. Therefore, if he and the Judge are going to be responsible for contacting outside advice then they are going to need some funds.
