RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS 100 Leaves
Sidewalk and Tree Maintenance -There is some concern about the survival of the
new trees on Broadway during the winter months. It is important to use the
proper ice and snow removal chemicals that will not harm the new trees. Dorothy
Dalquist prepared a flyer that EDDA could use in distributing this information.
Most of the merchants affected indicated that they appreciated this information.
Marketing Study -Update -The Director reported on the status of the Marketing
Study. The report from Phase I was received from Rocky Mountain Research Institute
in early October. After preliminary study, some modifications were made and
RMRI completed these and redelivered the report on December 12. During this time,
Susan Powers, Jim Bowers, and Penny Dietrich reviewed the issues to be considered
that were outlined in the report. This interpretation will be finalized for the
Board's presentation in January. It will include these issues as they relate
to the present and future plans of the downtown district.
Downtown Promotion -To present accurate and up-to-date information on the
downtown development activities, it was suggested to ~ave informational meetings
for merchants, property owners, and other interested parties after the first of
the year. It is hoped that a more aggressive promotional campaign can be
developed for the entire image of downtown Englewood and particularly for the
redevelopment project. It was the consensus of the Board to actively pursue
a positive identity and promotion of downtown Englewood.
One of the criticisms to date of the Trolley Square is the cost of a lease. It
was suggested to contact the leasing agent to see whether or not he could offer
incentives to pegin filling the vacant spaces. Some suggestions for Trolley
Square were jewelry stores, a tall women's store for clothes, and restaurants.
The EDDA will keep in touch with Lew Teperegarding any development and new
interest in this project.
Susan Powers noted that two large signs, denoting the entranceways to the
Trolley Square, will .be placed at Englewood Parkway and Broadway and also at
the Parkway and Route 285. This will help identify the entire redevelopment
area and note that there are .some very real plans for the area.
I f·
Other -Because of the holiday on January 1, it was decided to have the
regular Board meeting on January 15, 1986.
DRCOG -The EDDA will apply for an Innovation Award, Cooperative division,
in 1986 for our South Broadway BEautification Project.
AS there was no further business, the ~eeting was adjourned at 1:10 PM.
