COUNCIL COMMUNICATION
Date: Agenda Item: Subject:
April 18, 2011 9av Ordinance approving the IGA and
purchase of Fire Training Academy/
Orphan Property -Dedication of
Transportation Easement
Initiated By: Staff Source:
Parks and Recreation Department Jerrell Black, Director of Parks and Recreation
Dave Lee, Manager of Open Space
COUNCIL GOAL AND PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION
During a City Council Study Session on December 1, 2008, Parks and Recreation Director Jerrell
Black and Fire Chief Mike Pattarozzi gave an update on the Fire Training Academy/Orphan
Property. City Council directed staff to move forward with the grant request for acquisition of the
property for use as open space and trailhead for the South Platte River corridor.
RECOMMENDED ACTION
Five separate ordinances are required as part of the approval process for the purchase of the
orphan property, covering the following items necessary to complete the transaction:
1) accepting the 2009 Intergovernmental Agreement for a grant from Arapahoe County for the
Fire Training Academy/Orphan Property Acquisition and Improvements.
2) approving a quit claim for transfer of¼ interest in the Orphan Property from the City of
Englewood to the City of Englewood and authorizing the purchase of the Fire Training
Academy/Orphan Property from South Metro Fire Rescue Authority, Littleton Fire Rescue,
City of Littleton, West Metro Fire Protection District, and the City of Englewood.
3) dedicating a Transportation Easement over the Fire Training Academy/Orphan Property.
4) dedicating a Bike Path Easement over the Fire Training Academy/Orphan Property.
5) dedicating a Conservation Easement across the Fire Training Academy/Orphan Property in
favor of Arapahoe County.
Staff seeks Council's approval for this bill for an ordinance approving the dedication of a
Transportation Easement over this property.
BACKGROUND, ANALYSIS, AND ALTERNATIVES IDENTIFIED
The City of Englewood has partnered with many organizations and public agencies in an effort to
preserve lands, enhance wildlife habitat, and improve recreational opportunities along the South
Platte River corridor. The City is receiving Arapahoe County grant support for the acquisition and
improvements to a 0.719-acre parcel of land known as the Fire Training Academy/Orphan Property.
The parcel is located along the Big Dry Creek Trail at the confluence of the South Platte River.
The Orphan Property has long been identified as an important acquisition by the City and the South
Platte Working Group.
Proposed improvements to the property include trailhead amenities such as small parking lot,
pavilion with picnic tables, trailhead signage, and trail connections to the Big Dry Creek Trail.
The grant was supported by the Englewood Parks and Recreation Commission at a meeting on
January 8, 2009 and is also consistent with the plans from the City's 2003 South Platte River Open
Space Plan of increasing the recreational value of the corridor, preserving natural areas, protecting
water quality, and encouraging land uses that are compatible with recreational goals .
FINANCIAL IMPACT
Arapahoe County agrees to provide the City of Englewood with grant funds in the amount of
$74,200. The Englewood Parks and Recreation Department will use Arapahoe County Open Space
shareback funds in the amount of $24,800 as a grant match. These funds are included in the 2011
Open Space Fund Budget. Total costs for the project are $99,000 for the acquisition and
improvements to the property.
