M. Chairman Janssen read the following letter: October 13, 1955 To The Members of Englewood's Planning Commission and Other City Departments Concerned. Gentlemen: Because we are a<lopting the Denver 1953 Building Code and there will be some delay in working out several of the main points of difference, especially in connection with the administrative section,· your recommendation to Council would be greatly appreciated re- garding the interim use of the 1953 Denver Code. Specifically and if you so intend and agree, would you please recommend to Council that those parts of the 1953 Denver Code which are now intended for adoption for Englewood's permanent use be authorized to the Building Department by letter for use in the interim period? This recommendation, I am sure, will greatly facilitate our handling planning and design of new buildings during this interim period. This request is not intended to circumvent legal requirements but merely to facilitate handling matters in a practical manner. Without such an arrangement I cannot see certain ty~es of building plans being continued until Council actually passes on the new, proposed Building Code. These planners will just have to hold off for the number of months it will take us to effect the change. This is restrictive and certainly is not so by design of Council. Your reply would be appreciated for referral to Council in time for its recessed meeting Monday, October 17, 1955. cc: Mr. Banta Mr. Rudd Very truly yours, /s / James D. Rapp Councilman, Ward III I I I I I I After discussion, Weigand moved: Romans seconded: PAGE 113 That the matter be deferred, for action, until the Plannin g Commission meeting of November 3, 1955, to allow time to study necessary changes in the Denver Code that may be involved and to enlist legal assistanc e from the City Attorney, after which, if feasible, recommendations can be made to Council.
