6 . Recognition of Scheduled Public Comment
(a) Doug Cohn, 3 0 51 South M arion Street , said tonight I come as a representative of the
Englewood Merchants Association and I do apologize for the type font on that thing that I had put on your desk.
I tried to get it all on one page and the computer and I don't get along real well, so it is really small. As you are
considering the development of the Acoma property, those of us who have businesses along the way there , are
just a tad bit nervous. In the back of our minds, we see this crater that is about a block wide and a half a block
deep that will disrupt our businesses for a couple of years ... and that makes us nervous. I think you can
Englewood City Council

understand why that would be. I just have some comments about that. One would be that the development is
not just on the Acoma property. The development will be the whole 3400 block of South Broadway. Whichever
development, if either , you choose to put on Acoma, the parking structure , and the folks who live in those units ,
are probably not going to want to look out at the ugly back sides of our buildings, so there is going to be some
dressing-up that will be done on those kind of things . The development will take the whole Broadway block
there . I am hoping that as the development happens ... whoever is going to do it will kind of take us into
consideration on that. When Bonnie Brae moved into Englewood in 1999, one of the things that really attracted
us was the parking lot. We had been on Univers ity Boulevard for 39 years and if you have ever tried to eat at
the Saucy Noodle or one of those restaurants, it is really tough to find a parking space . And my customers
finally said to me, I refuse to walk two blocks , or three blocks , or four blocks and park in the neighborhoods to
come to your store, when your competitor has a parking lot out in front of his place. So that was one of our
attractions in moving down to Broadway. Steve Williams , who just opened the Artarama , one of the th ings that
attracted him to the 3400 block was the parking lot. So , the bottom line is we merchants are kind of worr ied
about the parking lot. I understand that one of the big challenges is how to pay for the thing. That is a problem .
As the Masons redevelop their space over on Sherman Street ... as private guys, they will be required to put in
enough parking for the residents who will live there and whatever kind of commercial retail goes in. As Jon
Cook redevelops some of his properties on Broadway, he is going to be required to put in sufficient parking for
whatever kind of development goes in there . I guess my thought is ... whatever developer takes over the Acoma
property, the same kind of an obligation should be on him . I have one more question on this whole deal. I'm
unclear whether the ground is going to be sold to the deve loper or whether it is going to be leased , kind of like
the City Center is . I think the City still owns the ground underneath here. I'm not sure about that. I th ink if it is
going to be sold to the guy and he will have a great chance for a profit , then the expense of the parking structure
should be built into that. On the back of the paper I gave you , is kind of a survey that we took . Just two of the
stores ... Rocky Mountain Budokan and us at the hobby store ... we asked our customers a number of var ious
kinds of questions. How important is parking locally? Are you willing to pay for a parking meter on Broadway?
How long do you stay in the stores? How often do you come and visit? And the results are on the back there
and it is kind of summarized on the front. In conclusion , I guess I want to urge you guys ... when the time for
development comes , that the parking structure gets built first.. .whatever kind of a parking structure we end up
with . Realizing that there will be a disruption for a time, having the parking structure there, it will prov ide a
space for the customers and for the construction guys as they start building the main part of the buildings . I
talked with a fellow who is just putting in a brand new project on West Colfax, and he suggested , for a little bit
more increase in money, a pre-stressed parking lot. .. kind of like the ones that are right out here . It is a lot faster
and not too much more expensive. It would be real handy to have some signs for alternative park ing for our
customers during the construction time . And the last th ing , when you take out the little park ... when the
developer takes out the park ... we would like to claim the bushes to put into the medians on Broadway . You
guys can keep the hammer and the nail. .. we like the bushes . Thanks .
Council Member Woodward said I just want to ask Doug if he wants to stay around for Counc il Member's
Cho ice, bec ause I do have a few comments that I would like to make. Mr. Cohn said sure , I would love to , I will
p lan on doing th at. Mr. Woodward sai d okay .

11. Ordinances, Resolution and Motions
(a) Approval of Ordinances on First Reading
(i) Economic Development Coordinator Hollingsworth presented a recommendation from
the Community Development Department and the Alliance for Commerce in Englewood to adopt a bill for an
ordinance reestablishing the Alliance for Commerce in Englewood . He said before you this evening on first
reading is an ordinance recreating the Alliance for Commerce in Englewood . ACE was established on February
20 , 2002, with a five year sunset provision . Over the last five years , ACE has accomplished a number of
significant goals in the community, including spearheading the creation of the first Economic Development
Strategy in Englewood. This was the first comprehensive look at economic development and the document was
ultimately approved by City Council in February of 2005 . ACE also supports existing businesses in Englewood
by introducing programs and initiatives to work with the business community, such as an Englewood business
visitation program . Also, ACE supports initiatives to enhance and diversify our Englewood business community
by undertaking studies such as the void analysis and our Primary Employer Study. This evening staff would like
to recommend the reauthorization of the Alliance for Commerce in Englewood and recognizes its important role
in enhancing the economic vitality of Englewood . Therefore , we recommend with the City Council's
authorization , the attached ordinance. Thank you .
Mayor Wolosyn asked if there were any questions for Mr. Hollingsworth . There were none .

Mayor Wolosyn asked if there was any discussion.
Council Member Woodward said I would just like to say that not being a member of ACE , but having attended
every meeting since I was appointed to Council a year and a half ago , except for one meeting , I really
appreciate and value the work that ACE and these business leaders are doing . This is a very busy group and
they have come forward with, I think, some very valuable information and great ideas. So , I will be voting in
support of this.
Mayor Wolosyn said I second Jim's comments . It is interesting to get to see the City through the eyes of the
people who do business here every week.

SERIES OF 2006.
RESOLUTION NO. 36, SERIES OF 2006
A RESOLUTION SUPPORTING THE PASSAGE OF THE "COLORADO CLEAN INDOOR AIR ACT" ALSO
KNOWN AS COLORADO HOUSE BILL 06-1175, PROHIBITING SMOKING IN INDOOR ENCLOSED AREAS,
AND MAKING ALL COLORADO WORKPLACES, INCLUDING RESTAURANTS AND BARS SMOKE-FREE.
Mayor Wolosyn asked if there was any discussion.
Council Member Oakley said I am disappointed that they left the casinos out. However, I won't abstain for that

Mayor Wolosyn said the resolution will be forwarded to the people who requested it. Thank you.
Council Member Woodward said I would like to make sure that it is forwarded to all our representatives ... Joe
Stengel and the people that represent us here.
2. He said I want to congratulate Englewood Arts on the fine piano concerto performance on Saturday.
Everyone was very excited and looking forward to the next performance.
(ii) Council Member Woodward said I just wanted to comment on some of Mr. Cohn 's
remarks here tonight. First off, the ground is owned by Englewood Urban Renewal Authority and the City of
Englewood and the land is for sale. And, I think there has been request for proposals that were put out over a
year ago and if business owners were interested in that, I would assume and hope that they would have brought
forward some development plans, meeting the criteria of those proposals. There have been some proposals
now that have come forward, that have met the criteria, from developers from legitimate real developers that are
builders . And, I think we would be looking at selling that land and in selling that land it would be very difficult to
tell the developer how to construct their development...that is, to use pre-stress concrete or wood framing
poured in place, whatever. As far as the parking goes, I know Bob Simpson ... ! know Darren Hollingsworth have
been very committed to letting the business community know, that we are looking at, in one of the criteria of the
proposals, 100 parking places for the existing businesses that are there . All new parking would be for the new
businesses, but there would be 100 parking places ... that has been recommended by Community Development.
I have not heard , on this Council , in Urban Renewal, on the decision around the selection committee , anything
about metered parking . The first time I have heard about metered parking is when I read your stuff over the
weekend and heard it tonight. So, that is a rumor, as far as I am concerned . And , I don 't know where some of
these rumors seem to get started , but it is a rumor ... nothing more than a rumor and it is just not something that
has come forward to us .
Mr . Cohn said can I interact? Mayor Wolosyn said just one thing. Mr . Cohn said okay, just one thing ... the
metered parking on Broadway was a thing that some of the guys in Community Development brought forward
as a way of paying for the parking structure .
Mayor Wolosyn said thank you Doug .
Council Member Woodward said okay ... then I will reiterate that if it came from Community Development, it has
not come to us as a Council. Nobody has brought that up , as far as I am aware and I read my stuff pretty
thoroughly ... and , personally, I would not support that. Meters would cost more than the benefit, In my op inion.

Also, Council Member Woodward said, I just wanted to comment on two weeks ago when you were here, and
you had left before there was Council Member's Choice, and there were three Council members that wanted to
respond to your remarks regarding ID theft and the laws and what has been put on in the City of Englewood.
There are certainly laws within the State and within the City, with regard to identity theft and fraud and those
types of items. Neighborhood Watch, during the calendar year of 2005, put on no less than three different ID
Theft seminars that were open to the public and were open to the Block Captains. One of the seminars was put
on by the 181
h Judicial District. It was an excellent seminar. I recommended that the City put it on for its
employees. They put it on one time and it was so successful they ended up putting it on a second time . So, to
clarify and to go on record and clarify, I think the City of Englewood has done quite a bit and has addressed
identify theft to the best, and maybe better than, its ability and certainly tried to make people aware of it. So that
is it, thank you.
13. City Manager's Report
City Manager Sears did not have any matters to bring before Council.
14. City Attorney's Report
(a) City Attorney Brotzman said the Rehabilitation Loan Committee has recommended foreclosure
on the Gali property, 3279 West Tufts Avenue. Not only haven't they made a payment, but we lost all contact
with them on this property, so I am recommending and asking authorization, from Council, to pursue that matter.
COUNCIL MEMBER MOORE MOVED, AND IT WAS SECONDED, TO APPROVE THE GALI
REHABILITATION LOAN FORECLOSURE.
Mayor Wolosyn asked if there was any discussion .
Council Member Woodward said I only have one question and that is the last sentence "I will notify Central
Cashiering not to accept any monies from them at this time." If they were to come in and cure the delinquency,
which, probably has a due on sale or due ... would we accept that or not accept that?
City Attorney Brotzman said more than that, we would probably work out a payment plan with them . Janet has
tried before to work out a payment plan . We just want to make sure they talk to Janet Grimmett or to me, but we
just don't want a payment of a few dollars toward a foreclosure .
Council Member Woodward said okay, so if they did come and cure? Mr. Brotzman said we would absolutely
work with them. Mr. Woodward said okay, that is the only question I had .
Mayor Wolosyn asked if there was any other discussion . There was none .

Mayor Wolosyn said I would like to begin by announcing that we had a Public Hearing scheduled tonight about
the Sheridan Redevelopment Project of our Golf Course, but because the City has not received and analyzed all
of the information we have requested from the developer, the Public Hearing is canceled for tonight. We had
one person, Homer Dunn, signed up to speak at that Public Hearing and I will move his name to the
unscheduled speakers list. But , I believe that Douglas Garrett, who used to be our Mayor , and has stayed on as
a volunteer counsel to City Council on this issue and our head of Parks and Recreation Jerrell Black , will be
here at the reception so if you have any questions about that project, you can ask them. Other than that , the
Public Hearing has been canceled . We will keep you posted .
Mayor Wolosyn said I wonder if there are any other changes to the Agenda tonight.

(c ) Mark Swanson was no t presen t.
(d) Chris Hoagland , 3041 South Franklin Street , sa id I am really glad tha t I was able to sit in on the
proceedings this evening . I am proud to be a cit izen of Englewood . I've worked in the alarm industry for 18
years and I recently had the opportunity to read the City's internet post ing about their new alarm pol icy and I
have a couple of concerns about that , which I was hoping to present to you th is evening . Essentially , the
internet posting describes two basic areas that the C ity is going to change how it p rocesses bu rglar alarm
signals . The f irst half of the posting , basically , discusses verif ication procedures that the C ity is going to
implement to try to reduce or elim inate human error and mechanical problems with alarm systems . In the first
instance , the City is going to requ ire the verification by a call to the prem ises to see if somebody is on site that
has got a password , so that a simple error by a user doesn 't result in a dispatch . And , addit ionally , t he City
proposes three types of physical ver ificat ion and that the alarm signa l won 't be responded to unless there are at
least two devices that are involved in caus ing the alarm or a video or aud io verif ication or, finally , corroboration
by an unaffiliated third party. And I think that those are all to the good . I think those can be effectively
implemented at no or very modest cost to alarm system users and they should dramatically reduce the false
alarm experience that the City has . My concern relates , primarily , to the second part of the proposal , which is
how the police will be dispatched in response to alarms both verified and unverified . And my reading of the
internet posting , basically , indicates that the City will no longer be dispatching a particular officer to an alarm , but
rather "broadcasting the alarm " and at that point in time , if an off icer is available and is inclined to respond to the
alarm , then an officer will respond . My contention is that that , for all pract ical purposes , is a non-response
policy. And what I would like to try to encourage the City to do is , since they are implementing some very
substantial verification procedures , to continue with their current practice of dispatch ing an officer to an address
that has an alarm and wait and see if perhaps the statistics don 't greatly improve, as a result of the ver ification ,
before they go to what I would regard as being a rather draconian non-response . Now it is possible that I have
simply misread the internet posting and I am sure that that is not a comprehensive d iscuss ion of the police
policy , but that is how it reads to me and I would really be concerned if I were a c itizen that really does rely on
an alarm system to protect their home wh ile they are working dur ing the day or a business that , you know, is
unoccupied at night. You know , a lot of people really rely on alarm systems to protect the ir property. I have
been a long standing advocate of responsible alarm uses and I work very hard with my customers to make sure
that the ir equipment works well and they are educated and informed on how to use it. I try to use the easiest
equipment that I can . I want to do everyth ing I can to prevent false alarms and I th ink my results show it. I think
I have excellent false alarm statistics . They inevitably happen , in sp ite of everyone 's best efforts . I think it really
would create a situat ion that could be very dangerous to property owners , if the C ity were to go ahead as th is
proposal i nd icates . Thank you very much .
Mayor Wolosyn said thank you Mr . Hoagland . I would like to add that o n Apri l 3•d Counc i l w ill revis it this and that
this new pol icy w ill not be implemen ted unt il Counc il rev is its it. And a ll of the th ings that we are hearing , such as
your re marks , a re app reci ated and w ill be addressed aga in on Ap ri l 3•d .
Mr . Hoagland said I would certainly be happy to volunteer any time that you might find useful. I have quite a bit
of experience in this field and if there is anything I could offer in terms of background or knowledge or whatever ,
please feel free to call on me . Thank you .
Mayor Wolosyn said thank you very much .
7 . Recognition of Un scheduled Public Comment
(a) Don Ramer, 3720 South Lipan, said we have four units on Lipan down there . W e have an
automotive repair facility and remanufacturing business and also a fabrication facility . He said this is my
partner , Jim Murray of the same address . W e started a business here in Englewood in July of 2 004. W e
basically have a very quiet business . We do a tremendous amount of repair work for the federal government as
far as U .S . Marshals . We do Comcast Cable ... we do a lot of what we call municipality and fleet, government
types of veh icle repair . Up to about the first 9 or 1 O months of our operation of business , we have had an
extremely ... ! would say ... very good neighborhood. Since that time , we have had a large increase in vandalism
and destruct ion of property to our business resulting in theft of art icles and automobiles ... random damage to
them in excess of thousands of dollars . Since that time , we also share some of the same concerns about this
Englewood City Council
February 6, 2006
Page 9
new policy that may be implemented regarding response . We have had no false alarms in our businesses .
However, we are concerned about this, because if this was to go forward, that would just give the criminals
more time to get into the building and inflict more damage before someone could get out there and do anything .
I think that needs to be addressed or looked at, probably a little bit more thoroughly , in our opinion . We have
also had a tremendous amount of activity at the end of our street, which the Englewood Police Department is
doing their best to try to alleviate , but , apparently, we have had a business that moved into the end of Lipan and,
from what we understand, this business has been booted from the City of Sheridan , because of problems that
Sheridan had with them . We are concerned , and all the area business owners on Lipan are also concerned ,
because since they have moved into our neighborhood , our crime has just skyrocketed . What it appears to be
is a chop-shop and we are real concerned and would like to have the City look into this . There has been drag
racing on the street , which the City of Englewood has also tried to clamp down on . These people have been so
bold ... they are only about five blocks from the Englewood Police Department. .. and they have even had time to
set up lights on top of the building, including a Christmas tree, to start drag racing with . We have done
everything on our end to alleviate it and now we are trying to come to the City and say ... in order for our
businesses to stay down in that corridor , we are going to need some help . And if we can't get it addressed a
little bit more formally and get it under control, we are going to be forced to move our businesses . There are
already vacant buildings behind us now. That also is causing problems . People are not wanting to move into
these businesses. Vacant buildings left for long periods of time are a haven for people to sit in those parking
lots and also become a little bit more criminal and this is what we are seeing . So , we wanted just a few minutes
of your time. We wanted to thank the Englewood Police Department for what they are doing, but we are in
hopes that maybe the City Council will take a look into this and possibly even the corridor where the light rail
is ... we have even had some issues with the light rail, where people have come from downtown . We had one
gentleman who was literally almost beat to death and he crawled off of light rail , came into our place of bus iness
after hours and had to be removed by the paramedics , because he was bleeding all over our floor. The reason I
am telling you this is because we have a big problem down on Lipan and it needs to be looked at. .. and also
Windermere . So, if you guys have any extra funds this year, we would like to open our business up and see if
there is something we can do to help . We want to stay and we want to see if we can make a big impact in that
corridor, but we are going to need help .
Mayor Wolosyn said thank you. She said I would just like to ask Chris if we could have a little more information
about this situation in our packet. I know that I had a letter about it.
Director Olson said we will do some more research on it. Obv iously , as he indicated, we are doing extra patrols
and other things down there right now , but this is the first time that it actually has come up where this has been ,
as far as I know, a significant problem that I am going to have to deal with. So, we will continue on with it. It is
going to involve, obviously , some more targeted enforcement kinds of situations and we will see if we can work
on that and we will work with them , as we have been doing .
Council Member Woodward said what hundred block was that? Director Olson said 3700 . Mr. Woodward said
okay.
Mayor Wolosyn said thank you.
(b) Peter Jones , 3133 South Bannock Street , said I also have some concerns about the alarm
policy . I have lived in Englewood for almost 10 years and have had an alarm system for that entire time . I have
had two different alarm companies that I have worked with . I, as well as the two alarm companies I've worked
with , have been very concerned about false alarms . That is my first concern, frankly, having Englewood Police
respond to false alarms , espec :ally when I hear these horror stories about companies that don't do verification .
That really boggles my mind . I can't imagine a company not doing that. I, and the companies that I have
worked with , have worked extensively to avoid false alarms . We have been very responsible users of the
system . In fact, I wrote a letter of apology to the Englewood Police Chief, some years ago , when I actually did
have a false alarm and the police had to come out. I was initially concerned about the kind of two trigger policy ,
or whatever you want to call it , where you actually have to have a motion detector and a door alarm go off , or
something like that. It seemed that was kind of like asking a criminal to put on a show ... to wave at all the
mot ion detectors or someth ing , before they left. But having consulted with my alarm company ... they don't seem
very concerned about that particular thing ... I will trust his judgment on that. I guess , aga in , the thing I am
Englewood City Council
February 6, 2006
Page 10
concerned about is the appa rent d iscretion tha t is being granted to po lice officers and after we are jumping
through all these hoops , if this policy becomes a reality , to then say , okay then we will follow up if we feel like
it...you know , if we are in the neighborhood, which seems to me to be wholly inadequate . It kind of puts all the
other efforts in vain, basically. If we are making the efforts to make false alarms a minority, then the alarms that
pass through that narrowing schism, ought to be taken seriously, I think, by the police officers . I am encouraged
very much by the fact that you are requiring the notification system to come into play ... that they would have to
call and actually verify that it is not a false alarm . I think that alone, as Chris was say ing , I think that in and of
itself, would likely prevent a large number of false alarms . False alarms are part of the deal , if you have an
alarm system you really can 't avoid having some false alarms and I have had a lot of them, but the percentage
that actually went through to the police , is actually very, very small , because most of them ... ! trip the alarm , I
walk in too late , I trip the motion detector, I get a call from my alarm company , I give the password and the
police are never involved in the process. So , I mean I can't imagine if all my false alarms had gone through to
the police, that would be an amazing problem , but the fact that I have always had a responsible alarm company ,
that has never been the case. I will say in conclusion , that I just hope that responsible alarm companies and
responsible users of alarms are not penalized by kind of a knee-jerk , broad-brush policy that kind of presumes
that we are all irresponsible, because I'm as bothered by false alarms as anyone, because when I see them
happen, I know that I don't want to be the alarm owner who cried wolf . I take it very , very seriously. I hope that
the Council, when they make their decisions and the police when they construct policy , will take into
consideration that there are a lot of us out here who really do want to be part of the solution and not the
problem. Thank you.
(c) Mark Craft said I live at 3333 South Lincoln Street, at the Simon Center at Lincoln and Floyd .
What I wish to speak about is the noise these Harley-Davidsons make starting about 9 o'clock in the morning on
the weekends . My apartment faces out to Broadway. From 9 o 'clock in the morning until bar-clos ing , all you
hear all day is rmmm-rmmmm ... packs of them going up and down Broadway. Now they are so loud that they
set off car alarms of the cars parked in the lots nearby or those parked on the streets . So after they go by , you
hear weoooo-weoooo-weoooo. I hate to give sound effects , but from 9 o 'clock in the morning until bar-closing ,
that is all we hear ... especially when the weather is good , there are about 40 ... they are all ou t. And , with the
summer coming they are going to be out every day ... almost.· Some come up through the ne ighborhood and my
windows shake . I represent the tenants at Simon Center and they complain too . So , are you working on more
ordinances to get the noise controlled from these Harleys?
Mayor Wolosyn sa id this is one of those issues that I am going to ask Director Olson about. We do have noise
ord inances , right? Director Olson said yes , we do ... we have noise ordinances , that is correct. The difficulty is
in the enforcement side and it is literally having to determine the decibel level where the no ise ord inance would
k ick into play . I understand their concern . It is a problem . It is a problem throughout the metropolitan area . I
know down in Lodo and so forth , it is a major problem down there , but , literally, the difficulty is of an officer be ing
in proximity and ... it is going to have to be a police officer ... not just a code enforcement officer . A police off icer
is go ing to have to be in som e sort of proxim ity to where these folks are , have a meter to de te rm ine the decibel
level a nd th en de termine w het her it violates the City 's noise ordinance , w hich in itself is a relatively minor
violation and the City Attorney could probably confirm that. But we do have an ord inance in p lace , it literally is
the enforcea bility side of it.
Mr. Craft sai d o ka y, it is j us t very annoying , espec ially in the summ er.
Mayor W ol osyn sa id t ha nk yo u an d we w ill keep abreas t of it. Mr . Craft s a id th ank yo u.
(d ) Do ug Cohn , 305 1 South Marion Stre et , sa id I wanted to t alk about two things real quickly
ton ight. T he f irst one is , Pos it ive ly En glewood . That is a bu si ness a nd citizen group tha t I ha ve been connected
with for a littl e wh ile . Last ye a r th e y gave away a nu mbe r of bic yc les a nd th ey d id a charity Golf To urnament at
the Eng le wood Go lf Course . I wo uld li ke to use th is ti me to inv ite yo u a ll to our second annual Positively
Engle wood Charity Golf To urnament. It w ill be at t he En g lew ood Golf Cou rse on Monday , June 12'h . It starts at
8 :00 a .m . It sounds like , at least f o r a wh ile , this summer will be the last time we play golf over at the Golf
Course until the new sys tem is set up over there ... so , I would like to invite you all to come . The money ra ised
w ill be donated to the Recreation Ce nt er to provide passes for kids who want to use the Center o r want to
pa rt ici pate in team sports and can 't afford the bills . So , the Positively Englewood guys are go ing to donate th e
Englewood City Council
February 6, 2006
Page 11
money to the Recreation Center programs. So, for all of you on the Cit y Council and the City staff and you all in
the audience who play that evil game, we would like to invite you to come on June 1 ih and participate with us .
We will have more details coming soon . The second thing is one of the other things I ran into on the campaign
trail during the campaign for City Council. .. identity theft. Probably every one of you in your employment and
even in the City here has gone to at least one conference on identity theft. Why is it not a crime in Colorado to
steal someone 's ID? I honestly don 't know the answer to that. It feels almost like ... those three little
statues ... hear no evil, see no evil, and speak no evil. Nationally , as the Republicans run the thing and I'm not
sure which one of those three the Republicans are , but in the State of Colorado nothing has been done and so I
guess I am encouraging you all to look hard at doing something about the identify theft problem. And, I realize,
as a City, that the book we could throw at them would be a very small book . I think this could be a shot heard
around the country by just taking a stand and saying we are not going to do that here . If you try to hurt
somebody in the City of Englewood , even though we have a really small stick, we will hit you with it. I would like
to encourage you to consider making identify theft a primary offense here in Englewood. Thanks for your time.
Mayor Wolosyn said thank you Doug .
(e) Homer Dunn, 3430 South Pennsylvania , said I am here to talk about the golf course . Where
people pay from $10,000.00 to $300,000 .00 to have a golf course in their neighborhood, we 've got one of the
finest Par 3's in the State and we have the greens ... finally after about 2 years ... where they are fit to play on .
We've got a good greens keeper. I can 't imagine Englewood giving up the Golf Course , because it will be the
last one we will ever have ... because somebody wants it to build a bunch of stores or apartments on it. .. I don 't
know . But the way I look at it, the only reason they want the Golf Course is because he will sell the rights , the
piece of paper to them for millions of dollars and he will retire and go live in Florida . And if they don't hold on to
that Golf Course , this Council, if they had the right to vote on it, should retire if they vote for it. That is all I've got
to say . They haven 't got the Englewood heart , if they do away with that Golf Course .
Mayor Wolosyn said thank you.

(a) Approval of Ordinances on F irst Read ing
(i) Director Gryglewicz presented a recommendat ion from the Finance and Adm inistrat ive
Serv ices Department to adopt a Bill for an Ordinance amending the transitional period for the Reflexologist
License . He said back in 2005 , November 11 1
h , the Council passed Ord inance No. 54 , which added the
reflexology license to the Code . As you know , we had a number of meetings with reflexologists and people
working in the City and at the time when we looked at the educational requ irements we thought that they made
sense and it would be easy fo r them to get the ir exper ience requ irements . But , after a little bit of time and
pract ical ity, they realized that they thought that it wou ld be easy for one of the providers to be able to prov ide t he
in-c lass train ing . That proved to be a lot more d ifficul t than we rea li zed . So , the two reflexo logists pract icing in
th e commun ity would have had to start , basically. over aga in with another course , which included classroom an d
hands-on . So we t hought , mos t of t hese peop le have work ed in the City for qu ite a bit of t ime , have mu ch more
hands-on ex perience than is required in the license and what we are recommending is that we , b asically , wa ive
that portion ... the hands-on port ion of the educational requiremen t a nd allow those two people , that pract iced in
the C ity on Septem ber 1, 2005 , to go ahead and be licensed and then all others going forward would be
required to have that full in-class and practica l exper ience that is in the license as passed in November 2005 .
Mayor Wolosyn a ske d if the re were a ny questi o ns .
Council M ember Woodwa rd said so bas ic ally we are grandfathering t hose two in ? Director Gryg lew icz said yes .
Mr. Woodward sai d and there are only two? Mr. Grygle wicz sa id there are only t wo that I kno w of and I bel ieve
that is t he onl y two . T hey wou ld have to p rove th at they worked in the City at that time and had all the other
qualifications . M r. Woodward said okay ... one is Shirley Fr iend and there is a noth er o ne down o n So uth
Broadway in about the 380 0 block? Mr. Gryglewicz said yes and she has , actually , been licensed as a massage
therap ist for quite a period here , but she actually does ma inly reflexology . but she doesn 't have t hat in-class for
th e reflexology . So we felt that in all fairness , we wan t to ke ep them work ing here in the City , that th is would
wo rk f o r everybody. Mr . Woodward sa id okay.

that is good for our budget , but also good for our Country really .
(i i) Mayor Wolosyn said a couple of weekends ago , I spoke at the Meridian to a Men 's
Breakfast Club . They gave me a great perspective on the community . One thing they asked about was our new

rad ios and t hey had a great interest , of course , in what is go ing on at the Denver Sem inary. I was able to g ive
them a good report thanks to staff and they also we re very interested in the Parks Plan . And , they love , love ,
love the Art Shuttle and want it to go to Ka iser .
(b) Counc il Members ' Cho ice
(i) Counc il Member Barrent ine said I am really so rry that Doug Cohn left , because I j ust
had a resolut ion , after almost a year , of deal ing with an identity theft. And , he is incorrect. .. identity theft is
illegal. It is proving it that m ight be difficult. It was brought up at a neighborhood watch meeting , Sergeant
Schellpfeffer did a beautiful job in providing information . And I also went to a meeting ... the Arapahoe County
Sheriff has a task force working on it and they handed out information on dealing with that as well. The
unfortunate part ... and the leg islation just passed this last year ... is that you have to be able to prove it , wh il e
those instruments you need in order to prove it , don't necessarily come to you . They are going to someone else
or a collection agency. I was able to work with the District Attorney , Carol Chambers , who d id a wonderful job
with the Judicial 18th bad check writing organization , to try to turn these back over to the police, so that they can
be investigated . I had nothing but cooperation from everyone .. .from Vince Atencio in talking to him about what
was going on , because one of the checks had been written in Englewood and I was able to find that out. .. and
Chris Olson has been very interested and been on top of it. And so I think that they gave a presentation at the
Neighborhood Watch . I th ink they are very on top of what is going on and they knew about the legislat ion right
away and they told me what th ings I would need t'o collect in order to have that happen . Fortunately, I hope it
has been taken care of, but it has no t hing to do with my account or my name or my address , so quite honestly I
wouldn't have been able to prove identity theft , because they never comm itted a crime against me . But it is still
illegal and I th ink Englewood is doing a beautiful job . They were very up to date on it and they were cutt ing
edge a year ago when they did that presentation . I know that Jim Woodward was at that one as well and I th ink
they have done an excellent job. So , I'm sorry that he didn 't stay, because an awful lot has already been done
and they have focused on that. I apprec iate them in keep ing up w ith me on what was going on w ith me too .
Some additional legislation is being looked at in orde r to try to help the people that fall into these categories , b ut
it is very diff icult. All these people had to do was put my name on a check with some number. It wasn 't even a
real account. So , quite honestly, it is a matter of what the businesses are going to do and how they are going to
c rack down . It is kind of open ended , but it can really happen to anybody and you don 't even need trash to go
through or loose a purse to have it happen . But , I can 't speak h ighly enough of the Arapahoe County Sheriff
and our Pol ice Department and what they have done over the last year on this . I'm sorry he left , but I will try to
pa ss that along to him .
(ii ) Counc il Member Mccaslin :
1. He sai d I was hoping Mr. Cohn wou ld st ick around .
2 . He said we d id have a meeting with the Sch ool Distr ict and th e City Council la st we ek , whi c h I t ho ught
was very, very positive and hopefully we will get more done through the School District and the City Council , but
we will deal with that later.
3 . He said I just read a newspaper art icle ... it was on the front page of the Rocky Mountain News on
Saturday ... a bo ut c ode enfo rce ment in othe r cities . Abou t how c itizens are really wanting us to buc k le down , so
I don 't kno w whe re we sta nd o n th at. I kno w o ur Cit y has done really well as far as code enfo rce ment. I just
hope we keep up o ur stand ards and do n't allow a few of the citizens to come in and all o w us to ha ve less
standards than we really need . I am on Keep Engle wood Be aut iful, so hopefully I can hav e some d irect ion
there .
(iii) Council Member Moore said I ju st would like to empathize with Mr. Craft who spoke
about the Harleys . It is unfortunate that it is clear there is a problem , that we have laws to deal wi th the
problem , but we just don 't have a practical way to deal wi th it. I have looked into this issue before and got
convinced that there is not a solution , but still hold on to a hope that one day we will find one ... by whatever kind
of creative means . I remember from one of the last reports we had on the Harley issue, that part of the problem
is that the laws are ... if I am correct. .. how they come out of the factory is fine and it is the modifications that are
done afterwards that are almost imposs ible to d ist ingu ish . It makes it a very difficult problem for enforcement
Englewood City Council
February 6, 2006
Page 15
and also having to monitor. The problem is common sense though , when your ears tell you the problem is real.
I just still hope one day, maybe even while I am still here on Council , we will find some kind of solution that will
work its way to the top. I appreciate the problem , but I also very much appreciate Mr . Craft's concerns . Thanks .
(iv) Council Member Tomasso said on Friday Jerry's Artarama opened in the old Guys and
Dolls facility on South Broadway. We now have a professional art supply store on Broadway , so I expect to see
the rest of the Council start moving in that direction . Thank you .
(v) Council Member Woodward:
1. He said I just want to second what Laurett had said and I guess make it a third for what Bob had said .
2 . He said also Neighborhood Watch ... put on by the 181
h Judicial District ... a whole seminar on ID theft ,
which I came back to Council and recommended that the City provide it for its employees . I think after the first
one it was so popular that they provided the second one , so I would suggest that we are doing quite a bit in less
than a year regarding ID theft. ID theft is a major problem throughout the country ... I think throughout the world
right now and I think we are certainly doing our part .
3. He said I just wanted to congratulate Stu and the Littleton/Englewood Wastewater Treatment Plant for
their State approvals as per this letter.

Some Thoughts about the Development of the Acoma Property
Notes for the City Council meeting Feb.21.2006
The parking lot in the rear of the 3400 block of Broadway is goi~ be built up starting
in the next few months . The whole parking area is involved in the projec~"'"'fhe City Council will
make some major decisions in the next weeks. At the merchants meeting we talked about these
concerns and have these recommendations:
a. It would be a good idea to centralize all the trash dumpsters in an enclosed area
for centralized pick up.
b. It would be necessary to have some delivery access to the rear of the businesses.
c. If the BID and other promotional plans are successful, we will have more people
coming to shop in downtown (a good thing) and need to plan for some excess
capacity. On Tuesday Feb. 7 at 12:45 pm there were 103 cars in the lot.
Traditionally, February and July are two of the quietest months in retail.
d. The width of the spaces needs to be carefully thought out. On Friday evenings ,
about 60-70 nice cars park in the north end for events at the Hobby Shop, the
Dojo and the Smoke Shop. The spaces need to be wide enough that the pretty
cars will not be dinged. The width of the current spaces is just right.
e. A possible financing option is to make the lot large enough for the new residents
and the customers at the stores and then sell spaces to the residents. The
residents would have permanent guaranteed parking as part of their purchase.
The developer could cover a large portion of the expense of the garage by selling
spaces to the residents. The businesses would look closely at the same deal if the
parking spaces were sold to them.
f. During the construction, careful planning would allow some customer parking in
the lot. The parking structure should be built first, then the buildings.
g. We would like to consider vacating a part of the alley to make outside
recreational space behind our stores as part of the commercial improvement.
h. A survey of a number of customers during the past week has reached these
conclusions. Metered parking on Broadway is a bad idea. Charging people to
park in the new lot is a bad idea . I will bring copies of the surveys and a
summary to the Council.
1. • There will be a need for employee parking during the construction, the
consensus is most employees may need to park further away. For safety reasons,
having some close spaces for those handling money would be very useful. It
would cut down on the need to carry defensive weapons.
J. During the construction, if most of our customers will park on the east side of
Broadway, we need to have the mid-block crosswalk put back in .
k. When the park is torn out to make way for the parking lot, the trees and bushes
should be moved, not destroyed. We could plant some of them in the median.s.

To: Englewood City Council
Concerning Development on the 3400 Stock of South Broadway
I am the manager at Bonnie Brae Hobby Shop at 3421 S . Broadway and I have a few
concerns about the upcoming construction on the lot next to my store and the parking lot behind
it.
First and foremost is parking for my customers. I would like to know where they will be-
asked to park during construction of the parking garage. What about our customers with limited
mobility? Where are shop owners and employees going to park? How much access will we have
to the alley and the rear of our stores? What will happen with trash service and deliveries?
I have heard that there may be plans to install parking meters on Broadway in front of
stores. I believe this would be a monumentally bad idea. So I surveyed my customers about
parking, and what they would do if parking meters were installed on Broadway. The majority of
my customers said they would not used metered parking. Now if the plan behind the meters is to
raise revenue for the parking garage, therr I can tell you that you will loose more in sales tax than,
the meters will make. This would be a blow to the image most people have of our shopping area.
The last thing we need in our current shaky economy is to drive away the people who choose t<l
spend their hard-earned money in local area shops.
I am also concerned about the access that will be available to trash service trucks and
delivery trucks. I take most of my deliveries through the rear door of my store, as do other stores
on the block, if access is severely limited, we will have delivery trucks taking up valuable
parking on Broadway. I shouldn 't have to tell you what will happen to the trash cans if the trash
trucks can't gain access to empty the cans.
I would like to see the city council work with the businesses in the area to agree upon
access and parking so we have a plan in place before the start of construction later this year-. By
working together on this, we can minimize the impact on our customers, and the image of our
shopping area that we have worked hard to build and maintain.
Thank you,

You are beginning to consider development ol"the 3400 tilock ors. Acoma property. As a business owner on that
block , I would like to share some survey results and thoughts with yo u. We are excited about changes coming to our
town . Having up to lit new households of people across th e parking lot from our businesses would be a good thing.
Some observations:
I . The development is not just Acoma, it is the whole block
2. There is an existing deal/reality/expectation with parking
3. Private developers must include and pay.for all necessary parking-Jon Coo k, Masons
4. Is the City selling the ground lo de,·eloper ?
a. Merchants have tried twice to buy lot
h. l.f leasing. City is reaping the gain
Bonnie Brae Hobbies and Rock) Mountain Budokan took a survey on Wed . Feb. 8th. We \\'anted to get
ideas and reactions from our cu stomers about possible changes and how they might affect our busint·sses. We got 78
people to fill out the forms. The summarized results oftlmt s urvey are on th e back of the paper I gave you . I have the
originals if you want them .
Parking is essential to our businesses, free; close in parking in our city is necessary to keep people coming to
our businesses.
• 69"/o said the lack of close parking \Vould impact their visits.
• 72% said they ,H1uld not use meters on Broadway.
• 74% said the y would be willing to walk I block or less to shop. 15 % said they would wa lk 2-J blocks.
• 79% stay more than one hour nhe n th cy come to shop.
We are most concerned with the construction period. If done 1..-orrectly, there will be a minimum of d1aos for
our customers.
I. We would urge you to write into the proposal that the parking structure is to be built before the main
development. That way, our customers and the construction people will have a place lo park during the
higger phase of the construction .
2. We would urge yo u to require a pre-s tress structure. rather than a poured one. ·n,e construction time
w ill be much less and the cost not much more.
3. We would urge you to plan alternative parking for the customers during the construction time with
signs directing people to the other lots. If we are to use the east side parking lot . the mid-block
cros~walk should be put back in. The vacant lot on the corner of Girard and Broadway could hold about
50 cars.
4 . We would like you to allow us to move the plants in th e lillle park and plant them in the planters in the
medians Oil Broadway. You can keep the hammer and nail.
We are excited about the future of the develtipment and our city. Things are beginning to happen.
A lcw )Ca rs from now. downtown is going lo be a real ha()pening ()lace . Please help us achieve that.
Tha nk you!

Initiated By: Staff Source:
Human Resources D epartment Sue Eaton, Director of Human Resources
COUNCIL GOAL AND PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION
The Collective Bargaining A greement with the Englewood Police Benefit Association wa s approved
by Council for 2004-2006 . The proposed amendment was discussed during the Council Stud y
Session on February 6, 2006.
RECOMMENDED ACTION
Staff requests Council 's approval to amend Article 9, sec ti ons A., B., C., and D . of the 2004-2006
Collecti ve Bargaining Agreement with the Englewood Police Benefit Association .
BACKGROUND, ANALYSIS, AND ALTERNATIVES IDENTIFIED
Per th e City 's co ll ective bargaining agreement for 20 04-2006 with the EPBA , wage increases were
t o be gran t ed if certain revenue projections were achieved by the City. After a 1.12 % increase was
granted on Januar y 1, 2005, the y had two more opportunities t o recei ve wage increases if revenue
projections we re met ( on Jul y 1, 2005 and October 1, 2005). The City's re ve nues did not meet
projections o n either of those dates, so no further increases we re gran ted to EPBA members .
In 2006, the contract prov ided two additio nal opportuni ti es ior wage increases , again on ly if the
City 's re ve nu es m ee t projections. The first o pportunity was on January 1, 2006. The y were not
gran t ed an in crea se on th at date because the reven ue targets we re no t achieved. The remainin g
opportunity wi ll occur on Jul y 1, 2006 . On August 1, 2006 the con tra c t provides for the union
members t o move 1/4 of the way to th eir market point, as agreed upon after a salary survey
co nducted in 2005 , withou t regard t o th e City 's revenues . For EPBA the increase wi ll be 1.8 % since
th ey are 7.2% behind market. This increase is con tra ctuall y required to be retroactive to January 1,
2006 .
Th e recomm ended con tr ac t amendments described above reflect the implementation of the
August 1, 2006 increase on March 10, 2006 .
FINANCIAL IMPACT
The impact o f the amendment will be approximately $356.17, which is an estimation of the interest
income lost by early implementation of the salary increase .

some delive access to the rear of t~n~ t~~ ~!al t~e successful, we
will have more ople coming to shop in downtown, which is a od thing, and we will need to plan for some
excess capacity. Tuesday, February ?'h at 12:45 p.m . t re were 103 cars in the lot. Traditionally, February
and July are two of t quietest months in retail. The w· of the spaces needs to be carefully thought out. On
Friday evenings, about to 70 nice cars park in th orth end for events at the Hobby Shop, The Dojo and The
Smoke Shop . The space eed to be wide eno so that the pretty cars will not be dinged . The width of the
current spaces is just right. ossible finan · g option is to make the lot large enough for the new residents
and the customers at the stores d then II spaces to the residents. The residents would have permanent
guaranteed parking as part of their p ase . The developer could cover a large portion of the expense of the
garage by swelling spaces to the re ·cien The businesses would look closely at the same deal, if the parking
spaces were sold to them. Duri the constr ·on, careful planning would allow some customer parking in the
lot. The parking structure sho d be built first, the e buildings . We would like to consider vacating a part of
the alley to make outside r reational space, behind o tores, a part of the commercial improvement. A
survey of a number of c omers during the past week has ached these conclusions . Metered parking on
Broadway is a bad id . Charging people to park in the new lo · a bad idea. There will be a need for
employee parking ring construction. The consensus is that most loyees may need to park further away.
For safety reaso , having some close spaces for those handling mone uld be very useful. It would cut
down on the ed to carry defensive weapons . During the construction, if mo f our customers park on the
east side o roadway, we will need to have the mid-block crosswalk put back in . n the park is torn out to
make w for the parking lot, the trees and bushes should be moved, not destroyed . We could plant some of
them · the medians . We are very excited to see new things happening, just concerned about the .details . Do
you have any questions?
