The proposal is to divide the property in- to six building sites; all sites will conform with the R-1-C zoning which is on the property. A revised survey of the site has been given members this evening, which survey shows a 5' easement on the west side of the property for utilities. Mr. Gil Vocate 1776 S. Jackson -stated that he was acting as agent for Alsum Bros., Inc., property owners. It is proposed that single-family dwellings will be constructed on the six building sites, the value of the residences to be between $30,000 to $32,000. Mr. Vocate stated that it is the desire of the property owners to develop their land comparable to the surrounding neighborhood. Mrs. Henning asked if the survey would be made part of the recorded waiver, and if the de- velopers would be held to this survey, which shows the division of the lots, frontage, etc.? Mr. Supinger stated that it would be part of the recorded waiver, and the developers would be held to that division of land. Mr. Carlson asked if the developers were being asked to provide on-site parking for their vehicles? Mr. Vocate stated that it is intended to have a driveway into garages on the rear of the lot on the south of three sites; the northern three sites will have access from Clarkson or Bates. Mr. Brown stated that he was pleased to see a developer building "homes" in the City; he had driven by the site, and the proposal "looks good" to him. Discussion followed. Henning moved: Vobejda seconded: The Planning Commission grant the waiver to the Subdivision Regulations as requested by Vocate Associates, Case #34-72.

Mr. Kephart stated that within the rental range previously quoted, the developer is providing more than most developers do; each unit will have a balcony or a patio to take advantage of the view toward the mountains. Mr. Carlson asked if there could be access from the K-Mart parking lot to this site --if the land was the same level? Mr. Carlson noted the grade on the access way of the subject plan and asked if fire trucks could maneuver that in the winter time? Mr. Kephart stated that the grade had been approved by the Fire Department; it is a 10% natural grade, and the developer proposes to "f latten off" 2 /3 way up the hill to a 7 % grade.. Mr ..

COMPREHENSIVE ZONING ORDINANCE Amendment of §22.2-5f CASE #3-73 Mr. Supinger stated that Public Notice of the Public Hearing has been published in the Englewood Herald Sentinel. Mr. Supinger stated that this amendment is in relation to com- pensation for members of the Planning Commission and for Board of Adjustment and Appeals. Mr. Supinger directed the attention of the members to a survey of cities of comparable size which was conducted last year, and the payment of their board and commission members.

Mr. Supinger stated that Arvada does so. Mrs. Henning stated that in that case, she would voice a minor objection to paying board and commission members.

Mrs. Henning asked if this matter had to have a Public Hearing before City Council? Mr. Supinger stated that it was an amendment to the Comprehensive Zoning. Ordinance, and he would assume that a Public Hearing before Council was required. Mr. Brown stated that since it is in the budget, and since some of the other boards and com- missions are being paid, he would hope that someone would make a motion to recommend the ap- proval of the amendment to City Council. Vobejda moved: Stanley seconded: The Planning Commission recommend to City Council that the amendment of §22.2-5f of the Comprehensive Zoning Ordinance be approved.

LYNNCO INVESTMENT COMPANY Parking Lot Approval --- - -------- - --- -- --- CASE #4-73 Mr. Supinger stated that Lynnco Investment Company has requested approval of the parking plan for their proposed 60-unit apartment complex to be located at South Cherokee Street and West Kenyon Avenue. Mr. Supinger stated that 102 parking spaces are required; 112 spaces are proposed. I I I I I I Tom Eitel 4301 S. Broadway - Page 1535 stated he was representing Lynnco Investment Company, property owners and applicant. Mr. Eitel stated that the request is for approval of the parking lot they propose in conjunction with an eight-story apart- ment building in the 3600 block South Cherokee Street. Mr. Eitel stated that Mr. Mel Denning, president of the company, and Mr. Dieckmann of Shield Realty, were present to discuss the matter. Mr. Eitel presented an architectural rendering of the proposed building; he stated there will be seven floors above ground, and one floor "subsurface", on which will be a swimming pool, recreation room, work-out room, storage space, and a management office. The total cost of the proposal, including land cost, is $1.1 million. Mr. Eitel stated that the Comprehensive Zoning Ordinance requires Commission approval of all parking lots with more than 50 parking spaces. Mr. Eitel then discussed the location of the parking; the guest parking spaces will be at the rear of the development, with access from the alley. The development will have sub-surface parking on both sides of the building, and surface parking. Sub-surface parking areas will be entered from the alley. Parking will be 90 °, 9' x 19' stalls, which comply with the Ordinances of the City. There will be some stalls on the sub-surface level nearest Cherokee which will be 10'8" in width, and surface parking stalls nearest the alley will be 16'2'' in width for ease of maneuvering. Access to surface parking areas will be from Cherokee Street at two points; curb cuts will be 25' in width. Mr. Eitel stated that Lynnea Investment Company has agreed to pave the Cherokee-Delaware alley in the 3600 block to City specifications. Mr. Eitel stated that the possibility of designating the alley one-way north bound has been discussed with City personnel. Lynnea Investment Company will ask that this be done, as well as restricting street parking along the west side of South Cherokee Street. Mr. Eitel stated that subsurface parking areas will not be screened; surface parking areas will have a brick- facing around the parking structure. Surfacing of all parking areas will be concrete or asphalt. Mr. Eitel then discussed fire lane loca- tions. A planting area in the front of the building will provide access for tqe fire equipment. Fire access from the rear will be from the alley. The building will have no windows on the north or south. The Fire Department has approved the proposed access for their vehicles. Lighting of the parking areas will be standard exterior lighting for the surface parking; the subsurface area will have fluorescent lighting along the center of the aisles. Signing will include an entrance sign, directional signs for guest parking; there would also be one-way signing in the alley if the City approves such designation, and signing along Cherokee Street prohibiting on-street parking on the west side if the City approves the request of the applicant. Drainage was then considered. Mr. Eitel stated that roof drainage will run to Cherokee Street. The sub-surface parking area will drain to the alley. The rear 1 /3 of the surface parking area will drain to the alley, with the front 2 /3 draining to Cherokee Street. Mr. Eitel noted that the City Ditch crosses the property. The applicants have undertaken proceedings for rechannelization of the Ditch, and the dedication on the part of the applicant has been accomplished. The City is in the process of vacating the present easement across the property in the present lo- cation of the Ditch. Mr. Eitel stated that the applicants have discussed the proposal with representatives of Mountain Bell and Public Service Company. Mr. Eitel stated that he did not know of any unfavorable re- action to the proposal. The applicant hopes to begin construction this spring. The development "will be the first of its kind in Englewood", a high-rise luxury apartment use with subsurface parking. Mrs. Henning asked if the sub-surface parking was on the same level as the alley? Mr. Eitel stated that it is. Mr. Carlson asked if there would be curb cuts for access from the alley, or if it would be open? Mr. Eitel stated it would be open. Discussion followed. Mrs. Henning asked how much "drop" there was from the surface parking level to the alley on the west side of the property? Mr. Denning stated that it was a 9' vertical drop. Mr. Eitel stated that parking spaces near this side of the surface structure would be 16'2" spaces; there will be a 3' barrier above the surface parking level. Mr. Brown asked that the audience be polled to see if there were members in relation to this request. Mr. Lentsch did so. An unidentified lady asked if the Parks & Recreation Depart- ment was aware of the request and the relocation of the City Ditch? Discussion followed. Mrs. Henning pointed out that this particular property is made totally unusable by the City Ditch in its natural course; the City would have to purchase the total property if it wanted to keep the Ditch available for bicycle and pedestrian trails, and from an economic stand- point, she questioned whether the City could acquire the property. Discussion ensued. Henning moved:C Carlson seconded: The Planning Commission approve the request for parking lot approval filed by Lynnea Investment Company, Case #4-78, provided the applicant meets all requirements for drainage, paving of the alley, requirements of the Fire Department, and accomplish the relocation of the City Ditch easement.

Mr. Eitel stated that the applicants would appreciate any direction on that matter. Discussion followed. Brown moved: Vobejda seconded: The Planning Commission recommend to City Council that the Cherokee- Delaware alley in the 3600 block be designated one-way north. AYES: Lentsch; Brown; Carlson; Henning; Vobejda; Stanley NAYS: None ABSENT: Weist; Ross; Robins The motion carried. --- - --- ----- - -- - ---- - - - ---- - - IX. JOSEPH BERENBAUM Silverman, Butz, Edward Electric SUBDIVISION WAIVER , 1795 West Yale Avenue CASE #6-73 Mr. Joseph Berenbaum stated he was appearing on behalf of Messrs. Silverman and Butz, and Edward Electric Construction Company, property owners. Mr. Berenbaum stated that the re- quest is for reconsideration of a subdivision waiver granted August 5, 1970. Mr. Berenbaum stated he wished to commend the staff for preparing a detailed staff report on the matter; it is very clearly set forth, and inasmuch as it has been available to the Commission f or their perusal, he stated he would not go into the matter in depth. Mr. Berenbaum stated that Edward Electric wants to add 25 ft. to their 120 ft. frontage to enable them to in- crease their facilities. Mrs. Henning asked why the 30' strip along the no~thern edge of the property was designated as "Parcel A"? Mr. Berenbaum stated that this is a strip along the ditch that the City will be purchasing for the drainage /greenbelt. The applicants felt that the best thing to do was to designate it as "Parcel A" and designate their two remaining parcels as "Parcel B" and "Parcel C". Mr. Supinger confirmed that this area is part of the Northwest Englewood drainage- way/greenbelt program, and that the City will be pu~chasing the area. Mr. Supinger noted that in the triangular area on the northwest portion of the property the City will purchase only an "easement" through the land. Vobejda moved: Henning seconded: The Planning Commission ·approve the request for Subdivision Waiver, filed by Mr. Joseph Berenbaum, Case No. 6-73, for property at 1795 West Yale Avenue.

X, SWENSEN & PICKENS INVESTMENT Astro-Tune Garage 4780 South Broadway CASE #7-73 Mr. Supinger stated that the request of the applicant is for an "interpretation" of the Com- prehensive Zoning Ordinance to permit a tuni-up and repair garage in the B-2 Zone District, The use, as proposed, is not mentioned in the Comprehensive Zoning Ordinance, and therefore is not permitted. The Planning Commission does have authority to say whether it is similar to permitted uses, and would be permitted at the 4780 South Broadway address. Mr. Supinger stated that the staff sees no objection to the request, provided all of the tune-up and re- pair is done within an enclosed structure. Mr. Lentsch asked for clarification; will this garage be doing body repair, etc.? Mr. Howard Swensen stated that the Astro-Tune Garage is a nation-wide chain; there will be no body or fender work done at this garage, and no heavy engine work done, Mrs. Henning noted that the staff report cited an opinion of City Attorney Berareini, whereby he has stated that action would not commit the Commission for all time, and the Commission . would act on each request brought before them. If this use were to be approved, could any firm that did this type of work locate in the City? Mr. Supinger stated that he interpreted the City Attorney's statement to mean that this use is approved for this location; any other use at another location would have to have specific ~approval of the Commission, Mr. Lentsch asked about solvents, etc. used in the garage? Mr. Swensen stated that there would be no materials used in the garage to increase fire hazard, Mr. Supinger interposed that the use must meet requirements of all codes and ordinances applicable to the B-2 Zone District. Mrs. Henning asked if it was found that some of the repair and tune-up work was being done out-of-doors, would this constitute a violation of the Comprehensive Zoning Ordinance? Mr. Supinger stated that it would. Mr. Lentsch asked how many cars could be worked on at one time, and where would additional cars be parked? Mr. Swensen stated that the parking would be shared with the Midas Muffler Shop at 4770 South Broadway; one access point to the parking area will serve both uses. There will be four bays within the garage itself. Mrs. Henning asked if gasoline pumps would be allowed? Mr. Supinger stated that the Ordinance would permit such use. Mr. Swensen stated that this is the third Astro-Tune garage in the Denver-metro area. I I I I I I Page 1537 Mr. Brown asked if there has been much opposition to this r.equest? Mr. Lentsch noted that there is no public notice given on a matter such as this. Mr. Swensen stated that he knows of no opposition to this use; he feels it would complement the other service uses in the area. Vobejda moved: Henning seconded: The Planning Commission approve the request of Astro-Tune Garage to be located at 4780 South Broadway, as set forth in Case #7-73; this use is to be conducted wholly within an enclosed structure. AYES: Vobejda; Brown; Carlson; Stanley; Lentsch; Henning NAYS: None ABSENT: Ross; Robins; Weist The motion carried. XI. DIRECTOR'S CHOICE. Mr. Supinger stated that the Action Forces Steering Committee has selected a consultant for the Core Area Study; and that City Council has endorsed the recommendation and approved a negotiating committee. The firm selected was Environmental Planning & Research of San Francisco, and he felt that negotiations would begin by the end of the month. Mr. Supinger stated that he hoped within another month there will be a consultant on the job. Mr. Supinger reminded the Planning Commission that the second meeting in February .is on a Wednesday evening, February 21st, and asked that they mark their calendars accordingly. XII. COMMISSION'S CHOICE. Mr. Lentsch noted that the Commission had received a thank-you note from Mrs. Romans for the plant sent her when she suffered a fractured arm. Mr. Brown stated that he would like to make a statement for the record, and emphasized that this is his own personal opinion. Mr. Brown stated that he has heard public statements that the Planning & Zoning Commission is against progress for the City; he has heard public statements that the citizens of Northeast Englewood are against progress for the City. Mr. Brown stated it is his personal opinion that the Planning Commission is not opposed to prog- ress as a Commission, and that they have to listen to the citizens of Englewood and do what is best for all concerned. Mr. Brown stated that it is his opinion that the citizens of Northeast Englewood are not opposed to progress for the City of Englewood; it is his honest opinion that all the citizens of that area are asking in relation to the Larwin Site is that the density be lowered. Mr. Brown reiterated that they are not against progress. The meeting was declared adjourned at 9:35 P.M. Gertrude G.
