Leidholdt Water Treatment Plant Operator Award from the Rocky Mounta in Section of the American Water Works Assoc iat ion . Director Fonda said it is my pleasure to introduce you to Don . I thought I would just read the announcement that went with the award. It is a prest ig ious awa rd . It is g iven in a three-state region by the American Water Works Association and one award is g iven per year . "The Rocky Mountain Section of the American Water Works Associat ion is proud to announce that Mr . Don Coatman of the City of Englewood 's Utility Department is the recipient of the Ralph M . Leidholdt Water Treatment Plant Operation Award for 2006 .

He is the contributing author to Rumbles , serves on the Rocky Mountain Section Safety Committee and trains staff on all aspects of operat ion and maintenance.

Mayor Wolosyn said congratulations . There was applause . Mr . Coatman said thank you , your Honor. (b) Lorena Beauregard , an Englewood resident , said I would like to start by saying thank you for allowing me to come here and speak . I have been a resident in Englewood for 20 years . I am also a letter carrier in Englewood for the pas t 20 years . There have been three major concerns ... not only from me , but also from some of my co-workers . One of the problems is increasing the number of dogs allowed per household . My concern with that is that you are not just doing that for the responsible owners , it is also be ing held out to the irresponsible owners who, unfortunately, we get to deal with quite a bit. The other concern is our office at th is t ime is very shorthanded , so a lot of times carriers are doing one assignment and then going back out to help a fellow carrier in a different area . In doing this , I am running into a lot of situat ions whe re the number of pit bulls that are coming to our neighborhoods are multiplying . And it is really frightening ... not only as a carrier , but as a mother. You know , I am afraid to let my k ids walk alone to the park anymore . I am hoping that we can ra ise awareness and at least set some k ind of c ri teria if these dogs are go ing to be in ou r ne ighborhoods . On e of th e main reasons that I am here tonight is because I have had an ongoing dog problem with a customer on my route . I have called Code Enforcement probably 25 to 30 times. I have tried to expla in to th is customer tha t fo r pe rsonal and profess ional reasons , it is not a good idea for me to get to know anybody's anima l. .. bec ause in do ing that , the nex t carrier that comes in o n my day off, or when I am s ick , or whatever the reason tha t I am not th ere, and th is dog is used to appro ach ing me, could very well approach somebod y w ho is death ly afraid of dogs and I have just endangered the dog and my fellow carrier . When Code Enforcement was called out this last time , at the beginning of September, she told me ... I am very clear that I have no rights as long as the dog is on their property. The dog was unrestrained and off the property . And this gentleman ... it is a game to him ... to allow his dogs loose when I am in the area . It is intentional. Well Code Enforcement explained to me that there was nothing that she could do, except to give a good strong heart-to-heart ... which isn't going to protect me from a dog bite . Her next suggestion was for me to cut off mail to the entire block, rather than have this one household be responsible for their pets . I find that very unfair. I have some very big professionals on that block . Mr . Moore, you are one of them . I am hoping that I can come to you . The laws are set ... it is just that they are not being enforced . And I come here today in hopes that we can educate . I don't want to criticize ... l am a dog owner myself ... but to educate the public, so that we create a safer situation not only for the public but also for the animals . Thank you . Mayor Wolosyn said thank you . I would like to say that we don't have a question and answer period at this time , but we often return to these issues at the end of the meeting during Council Choice . Ms . Beauregard sa id thank you . Mayor Wolosyn said thank you . (c) Englewood Business Owner Doug Cohn , an Englewood resident , said I wanted to come back and g ive you a little report on Englewood Days . Most all of you received this nifty poster. We have some Englewood City Council October 2, 2006 Page 3 cert ificates of appreciation that we would li ke to hand out to some guys in d ifferent parts of the C ity governmen t. He said, Mr. Olson, I would like to give you a cert ificate of appreciation and a letter of thanks for the Safety Services guys who worked with us on the Englewood Days and say thank you to Jeff Sanchez and John Knoth . Council Member Barrentine said why don't you have all of the people who were on the Committee stand up with you? Mr. Cohn said yes, that is a good idea . I have some other members of the Englewood Days Committee here in the aud ience tonight. Mr. Cohn was joined at the pod ium by Chris Duis, Bob Farris , Anne Burris , Laurett Barrentine . He said Rick, can I give you a certificate for the Publ ic Works guys? It seems like most of the assistance we got with stuff on the ground was from the Public Works guys . Rick is the Director and Larry Nimmo and Jim Kavinsky got us the Englewood flag that the Boy Scouts could use for the day. Jerry worked with us to get the Show Wagon over there and Dell did lots of work with the barricades and grad ing the park ing lot and sweeping the streets ... and Linda Wilks who is the keeper of the gate over there. You don't get anything done unless you get past Linda first. .. and Scott with the trolley . And even though I was kind of suspicious that Ladd's idea on traffic control would work ... it worked really well with the electric signs and slowing the speed lim it down . So, I would like to say thank you to all of you guys over in the Public Works Department with a certificate and letter saying thank you . Mr. Kahm said thank you . There was applause . Mr . Cohn said the Community Development guys ... Darren , Brook and Bob ... did all the paperwork that we needed to do to make sure that all of our permits were in order ... and working with Joan Weber, the Risk Management person, so that we didn't cross any kind of lines that we shouldn't cross and stuff like that. We would like to say thank you , Bob , for all the work that you guys d id . Mr . Simpson said thank you . There was applause. He said the second from last is the Parks and Recreation guys . Debby Severa was able to line up the Show Wagon for us with Jerrell and Gary working with us on that thing . The Show Wagon was a big hit and it worked out great. He said , Jerrell , we want to say thank you . Mr. Black said thank you , I appreciate it. There was applause . Mr. Cohn sa id and now just one more ... if you didn't get to see the trophies at the Car Show for the winners in the various categories , Chris made one extra trophy that we would like to give to the City of Englewood . He said they are unique and we would li ke to g ive it to the City. Counc il Member Barrentine said I don't know if you guys know this or not but Chris Duis designed those trophies and he made them . There was applause . She said they were the talk of the Car Show. The people who do Car Shows said they were pretty impressive trophies ... and he had the idea of presenting Englewood with one of them as well. So they are unique and hopefully we can display that w ith pride for our cit izen effort on a really successful event. Chris and I also had one more ... and Bob Farris from the Survival Store was the head of our vendors . Chris Du is headed up the Car Show and also headed up the finances with me . Pos itively Englewood was also involved in the fund ra ising events and I am the Cha ir of that group . And Anne from Orcha rd Place was nice enough ... they volunteered to come in and help us and prov ided a lot of assistance in part of Orchard Place as well for th is even t. So I wanted to give all of them a round of applause for all of the effort that they d id . The re was applause . Ms . Barrent ine sa id like w ith any even t, noth ing happens w ithout a Chief an d wh ile we had so me very ha rd work ing Ind ian s, we d id pretty well w ith that , but it wouldn 't have com e together w ith o ut Do ug Cohn being the go-to gu y and organizin g all of th is . An e vent like th is is ex tremely difficult to put on . Even Darren ... bless his heart ... when somebody said , hey, what the City needs to do next yea r Darren is ... and he goes , this is too big for us . But , it wasn 't too big for Doug Cohn and I appreciate the work and effort that he put in to it or it wouldn 't have happened . It was an excellent event. It brought the commun ity together and we are so very proud to have you both as a business owner and a citizen here in Englewood . We have a plaque for you as well . Mr . Cohn said thank you . There was applause . He said just one extra thing . We were thinking with that nifty trophy , if those posters could be displayed on either side of the nifty trophy that would even be way cooler. There are two different posters , so can I just put those with the trophy? Thanks for your time . Mayor Wolosyn said thank you Doug . Mr . Farris sa id every single th ing that the City helped w ith , they did a better job than anybody could have hoped fo r. I mean , there wasn 't one th ing that they didn 't go overboard on . So, for all the people who helped from the Ci ty, you couldn 't be li eve what k ind of good j ob they d id w ith everyth ing . Englewood City Council October 2, 2006 Page4 Mayor Wolosyn said thank you very much . We have a great staff and they did go the extra mile on that project . There was applause . 7 . Recognition of Unscheduled Public Comment (a) Cherie Wolkensdorfer, an Englewood resident, said I am currently an employee at Starbucks ... the new one on Broadway and Bates . We opened Friday and I am just here to invite you all to come in and enjoy a cup of coffee ... and everybody else here too . I wanted you to know that our Manager is very into the community, along with Starbucks , so I have for you certificates to come in and meet Dave any time . Come in and have meetings or just coffee and come in and read . We have a beautiful lobby and a drive-thru . Jim has been there and so has Laurett. Mayor Wolosyn said thank you and welcome . Council Member Barrentine said I went to the opening on Friday . It was excellent and when she said she was going to come down here and talk, I said that is fantastic, let everyone know . And when she said she was coming down here with a certificate for everybody to have free coffee, I said, come on down . There was laughter. Ms . Wolkensdorfer said I have given out some of the certificates, but I will leave the rest on the table ... so if you haven't gotten one, please take one . Mayor Wolosyn said thank you very much. Council Member Woodward said I actually had the opportunity to go on Friday and last night with friends and family and twisted Cherie 's arm to come down here and get up to the podium and actually speak to us . So , th is is a new and different type of Starbucks . I think Dave , the manager. is very excited about what is going on there an d 1 wish you a lot of success . Ms Wolkensdorfer said I think th is is going to be a plus for our City . Thank you . Mayor Wolosyn said thank you . There was applause. (b) Deborah Sullivan , an Englewood resident, said I didn 't think I would be able to speak tonight. Around July I went down to City Council and I gave City Council an envelope and I guess maybe you guys have not received it. On January 41 h ••. six months ago ... my dog ran out of my house barking . She was a lab , looks just like a lab . There were two undercover policemen who did not identify themselves ... my neighbor and I both sa id, she is only barking and she will not hurt you . They did not listen at al l. Mr. Smith pulled his gun and shot my dog three times in front of me as I watched my dog 's neck explode . My concern is that pol ice offic ers should not be above the law ... that they can just shoot whoe ver they want. This man was not put in jail. If my neighbor had done it, he would be . I have an attorney and she told me I can speak about this . In this book of the lies that were told about my dog ... there are pages of lies . One officer said there are no witnesses and in his own report he states the man's name four times that was a witness . Also. I have letters in here from all my neighbors ... one is 87 years old . I have arthritis and when I can, we walk together . I have a letter from my neighbor who is blind ... he played with her every day . I have a letter from Doggie Day Care who loved her ... you cannot take an aggressive dog to Dogg ie Day Care . I have a letter from a neighbor who states that he has seen 3 and 4 year olds pull my dog's ears and tail and never did one thing to them . My dog was really loved . My husband and I never had children ... we have been together for 30 years ... she was my life . I would like for you all to take a look at this chart . I would like you to look at the crime scene and the pictures of my dog . Can I present them to you? Mayor Wolosyn said yes, we will look at them , yes you may . Ms . Sullivan said thank you very much . Mayor Wolosyn said thank you . I'm sorry for your loss . As I said, the issues that come up in this area of Council are often addressed at the end of the meeting , if you wish to stay . (c) Barbara Larson , an Englewood resident , said thank you for allowing me to address you . I am going to read a letter and this is going to sound so ... I don't know ... after hearing that test imony and that little talk , I am hesitant here . However , we as letter carriers for the City of Englewood are having a problem with loose dogs and irresponsible dog owners . I put a letter together and circulated it around our office today and I would Englewood City Council October 2, 2006 Page 5 like to read it and I would also like to pass it around and show you how many people signed it. There are a lot of carriers who couldn 't show up ton ight but they are aware of this and they know that there is a problem . "Dear Sir or Madame : We are letter carriers and we would like to express our views concern ing dogs in the City of Englewood . Postal regulations do not allow a carrier to enter a yard where there is a loose animal. The top ic of dog bites is frequently addressed at our safety meetings . We are constantly told not to pet o r feed a dog , because when someone else delivers the ma il he may not treat the dog in the same manner. Dogs are protective an imals and they act differently when the owners are not at home. Some routes have up to 100 dogs so it is hard to distinguish which ones are friendly or which ones are not fr iendly . Our mantra of deliver ing through rain , snow, sleet and dark of night does not include fighting off dogs . I am sure people have stories of about how we over react when a dog approaches us , but our supervisors threaten discipline when we are bit and when we know a dog was at that point. We are being pushed into a corner , so as letter carriers of Englewood , please restra in your pets . Thank you for your time ." Thank you . Mayor Wolosyn said thank you . (d) Charles Trujillo said I have been a mail carrier for 24 years . I live in Littleton , Co . I was here probably about three or four years ago w ith another petition with approximately 50 signatures, similar to what Barb just presented . And I am here again, because I strongly feel that we need to go ahead and voice our opinion ... I need to voice my opinion ... about how I feel about th is issue . I feel that the law, the way that it stands now, should probably be a little bit stricter , personally, when it pertains to dogs . I feel that sometimes Code Enforcement officers feel that their hands are tied and they can 't really give citations or address a problem . I also feel that when there is a problem out there, if I am delivering mail , I feel that I should be able to call d irectl y to a Code Enforcement officer ... they should be able to go out there immediately and address the s ituat ion and decide what to do from there . I w ish that there would be more vis ibil ity, you know , on some of these routes . I w ish and I hope that the City Council would look into th is more seriously down the road , because , fo r th e most part , you know 99 .9% of dog owners are respons ible and they do take care of the ir pets , okay , but it is that .1 % that needs to actually be policed up as far as I am concerned . I think that if we can go ahead and nip this in the bud, on just a personal level with that individual that we are having problems with , I th ink it would be much eas ier , because we would hate to cut off ma il del ivery for the whole block or for the ne ighbors next door , because it is not fa ir to people who don 't have that problem . I could go on more, but I th ink I shou ld go ahead and cut it short . That is all I have . Thank you . Mayor Wolosyn sa id thank you . (e) James L. Campbell , of Morri son , Colorado , sa id thank you fo r th is t ime to add ress Cou ncil. wa s a n Englewood res iden t for over 20 years . I graduated from Englewood High Schoo l. I have bee n a letter car rie r in Englewood for 32 years . Two and a half years ago I was del iver ing ma il on the 3500 block of Co rona Stre et. I w as wor ki ng o n one si de of the street w ith no pro bl e m ... ! cam e down the other si de of the street and came around a Suburban ... two rottweiler dogs were in the yard. One of them ... we had had trouble with this address before ... l went out into the street to avoid the dogs and thought they are not going to get delivery today . One of the dogs jumped this 30 inch chain link fence , came after me aggressively, I was knocked down , I put my right arm out to catch myself as I fell and the dog attacked me . Fortunately, I had a satchel so I was able to fight him off. The dog went back . When I got up , I couldn't move my right arm ... my rotator cuff was damaged and also I dislocated a bicep tendon . Come to find out, the dog had attacked a letter carrier four months previous to that. He had also attacked a little girl. He had been ticketed for dog attack and dog at large and another t ime ... a month later ... the dog had been ticketed for dog-at-large . He attacked me and, subsequently in the investigation. we found out that the people were renters and they moved out of Englewood as soon as they could . But in the last two years , we have noticed a big increase in pit bull dogs . I can sight an example ... the dog next door to my dog attack, on Corona Street , the people moved in and told me , well we are responsible pet owners , we moved out of Aurora to avoid the dog problems there ... with their pit bull they moved into Englewood . Another situation we have had in the 3200 block of Corona Street is a dog name Avalanche . He has attacked carriers four times and we made him move the mailbox down on the street , they were forced to get a post office box and the dog has been picked up and the owner ticketed twice for this dog . I would just like to ask the Council to consider more regulat ions or tougher enforcement of the dog codes in Englewood . Thank you . Englewood City Council October 2, 2006 Page 6 Mayor Wolosyn said thank you . (f) Lou is Rivas said I have been here before , a couple of years ago ... before th is Council. .. and presented my photos of all my dog bites that I have gotten ... on Cherokee , Delaware, Galapago , Washington . It is to the point where they nicknamed me T -bone , because of all the dog b iting incidents , but the problem is everywhere . It hasn 't gotten any better and I've got scars all over my body. A V ietnam veteran and I came back scar less and here I am in Englewood w ith four dog b ites in less than two years . So , we do need tougher regulations . Thank you . (g) Victor ia LeBert , an Englewood res ident , said it is kind of funny that everybody is talk ing abo ut dogs , because I am only up here because I heard you guys talking in Study Sess ion . I know you guys aren 't going to discuss breed spec ific dogs, but I do think there is a need for severe revamping of the dog pol icies that we have . I would like to point out that when I was a kid Doberman pinschers were cons idered very dangerous and there are rottweilers that I am pretty sure that I couldn't survive an attack from. Nobody is talking about banning rottweilers or banning Doberman pinschers or German shepherds ... who are more likely to bite me than any other dog from what I have read . What I want you guys to take into consideration ... when you are talking about breed specific bans ... that I have been around a lot of dogs ... being a part of Englewood Unleashed ... ! am not speaking for them , I've just been a part of them and been around a lot of dogs . I think that if you go toward the breed specific , rather than working on just fixing the policies and strengthening the polic ies that we have , you are going to punish some long-time Englewood residents who have been excellent dog owners and who have pit bulls or pit bull mixes that are calm dogs and good dogs . It is unfortunate that we are surrounded by cities that have banned them, so a lot of people are coming to this City with dogs that are not necessarily safe and that does worry me . There is a gentleman that l ives down the street from me that have p it bulls that worry me , but there is also another guy down on the other side of the street that has a 30 pound German Shepard m ix that scares the crap out of me too so ... l j ust want you guys to cons ide r, when yo u are tal ki ng abou t th is , the re have been many, many people who have lived in Englewood and had pit bulls speci fi cally and they are good owners and they have had calm dogs and they haven 't had any sort of compla ints against them or the ir dog , other than the fact that the ir dog is a pit bull. That is all I had to say . Thank you . Mayor Wolosyn said thank you . (h) Linda Hart , an Englewood resident , said I have l ived in Englewood for about 10 years now . have lived in Littleton for about fi ve yea rs before that and I'm a Colorado nat ive . I show dogs . I have small dogs . I have s ilky terr iers wh ich are about 10 pounds and have done that for about 30 years . I also wor ked on PACFA , the State Regulat ion for Care and Fac ili ties and I worked w ith several c it ies on the ir dog ord inan ce s. I am work ing w ith Parke r righ t now and a couple of othe r places that we are tryin g to bring th e m into li ne an d get th em w ith some good ord inances . I sat in on you r St udy Se ssio n and I agree w ith what is be ing prese nted ... that breed specific la ws do no t work . You ma y ban p it bull s but you a re not bree d ing b ull m astiffs or m as tiffs o r some of the other Japanese breeds that can be quite aggressive, if they are improperly socialized and improperly raised . You need to be punishing the owners that are having the vicious dogs . I see my letter carrier here and I know that she has had problems with the lab mix across the street that for ten years has been a very nasty dog and they have stopped the mail service to them on several occasions , because the dog is mean . They fixed the fences now so that the dog cannot get out. But , breed specific dogs do not work . What you need to do ... and if you 're ordinance says that the dog can have two bites in two years ... that is way too lenient. The State law has just been made stricter on vicious dogs and dog bite regulations and I think the City of Englewood would be well served to do the same thing ... to review the State law and br ing the City laws in line . The State law is a very good law at th is point in time . Also , the information that you were given from the Coalition For Liv ing Safely with Dogs ... I recommend that you read that real closely . There is some very , very good information in there and very good resources supported by the Animal Control Officers of the State and some of the top organizations in the State on animals . Thank you . Mayor Wolosyn sa id thank you . 8 .

Public Hearing Items No public hearing was scheduled before Council. 11 . Ordinances, Resolution and Motions (a) Approval of Ordinances on First Reading (i) Director Kahm presented a recommendation from the Public Works Department to adopt a bill for an ordinance approving an Intergovernmental Agreement with the Colorado Department of Transportation for design and construction of a bridge over the Platte River at the Golf Course . He said , as you may or may not be aware , there has been an existing bridge at that location s ince 1982 . Whe n the C ity bu ilt that bri dge to connect the east and west sides of the river , as we developed the Golf Course on the east side . Fo r the last several years , there has been a lot of conflict w ith the increased use of the Tra il System . We are ask ing golfers , we are asking bicyclists and hikers and folks walk ing dogs or whatever to use the same bridge and there are conflicts some times . As early as 2003 , before we even proposed redeveloping the Golf Course , we had submitted, for funding , under the Federal government's Enhancement Program, to build another br idge at that location . At this t ime we have had approval by DRCOG ... if I could get you to look at the third page of your packet ... what you will see is a l ist of projects that DR COG has approved for the 2007 through 2012 TIP Enhancement Pool Projects . You will notice that there are a total of eight projects that have been approved ... six cit ies have each put in one ... we have been approved for two . And what I would like to point out , because it will affect this ordinance , as well as the next one ... is that in 2007 there is only a total of $429 ,000 .00 ava ilable from that Poo l. This is almost a first-come , first -serve with the State ... and we really believe that the compet ition right now is between Englewood , Boulder and Golden for proj ects . Since we are a lready in the fiscal year 2007 , money is ava ilable as soon as the State could prepare the necessary docu ments . It wou ld a llow us to start the des ign on that bridge this year yet and as early as July of next yea r, poss ibl y start c onstru ct ion . And that would a lso li ne up w ith the propose d deve lopments at th e Golf Co urse, because the Course is expected to open in the early summer of 20 08 . In this particular instance, this project is on a 20/80 percent match with Englewood's share being $144 ,800 .00 and the Federal total being $579,200 .00 . As we have negotiated with Miller Weingarten, the developer , they have agreed to pay for the City's match on this particular project. The only way we would be at risk is if for some reason we didn't do that project ... we would have to come back and ask for the local funding out of the Open Space Funds . Mayor Wolosyn said thank you Rick, well done. Do we have any comments or questions for Rick? Council Member Woodward said I have one question on the map . On the area between the new bridge and the existing bridge, will that trail be vacated then? Mr. Kahm said we have not completed the design at this point , but I suspect that it might be . What we intend is that the trail users would use the new bridge ... the south bridge ... and of course we will hook everything up with a traffic type circle, where they come together on the east side . That particular segment that is there now , that connects up to the Golf Course, might still be of value to the Golf Course to get maintenance equipment in and out. There are times that we have used that. Most recently the Corp of Engineers did some channel improvem ents along the river and that is how they accessed from Oxford to get in there to do that work . But we would be able to control the access point , regardless . Mr. Woodward said some sort of control would be put up Englewood City Council October 2, 2006 Page9 to turn the t rail off of that, so we wouldn 't have the same problem on the ex ist ing bridge . Mr . Kahm sa id absolutely . Mr. Woodward said great. That was the only question that I had . COUNCIL MEMBER WOODWARD MOVED, AND IT WAS SECONDED, TO APPROVE AGENDA ITEM 11 (a) (i) • COUNCIL BILL NO. 38 . COUNCIL BILL NO . 38 , INTRODUCED BY COUNCIL MEMBER WOODWARD A BILL FOR AN ORDINANCE AUTHORIZING AN INTERGOVERNMENTAL AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE COLORADO DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION (COOT) AND THE CITY OF ENGLEWOOD , COLORADO, THAT PERTAINS TO CONSTRUCTION OF A BRIDGE OVER THE PLATTE RIVER AT THE ENGLEWOOD GOLF COURSE . Vote results: Motion carried . Ayes : Council Members Barrentine , Mccaslin, Moore, Wolosyn , Woodward , Tomasso , Oakley Nays : None Mayor Wolosyn said thank you Rick . (ii) Director Kahm presented a recommendation from the Public Works Department to adopt a bill for an ordinance approving an Intergovernmental Agreement with the Colorado Department of Transportat ion for design and construct ion of a br idge ove r the Platte River at Dartmouth . He sa id like the previous request , this is almost identical. In this case , the br idge is along s ide Dartmouth . The re the s ituat ion is we are asking the Trail users to cross on the existing street bridge , wh ich has a very narrow s idewa lk ... so the separation would be of great value from a safety standpo int. It is almost identical except on the fund ing . In th is part icular instance , we have th is 80/20 spl it , but what the C ity d id when we asked for this is , in order to increase our chances of getting funding for this bridge , we worked with Community Development and this was submitted at about a 65/35 split.. .but we overmatched it and that got us additional points in the evaluation , which got us on th is list. One thing that I should also note is that there is a note that the corrected outline letters are not substantive changes . What that is about is that the State, in a hurry to get these contracts to us , because it is go ing to be a f irst-come , first-serve situat ion ... had made some techn ical errors ... noth ing that has any impact on the language in the contract or the value of the contract. We w ill try to get those corrected before you sign them , but we did go forward ... you will see where we have had to do some hand w ri tin g to co rr ect so me letter s and numbers . But I th ink that is t he only thing we 've got there , is that we did overmatch it. And if in fact , th ey don 't fund that project in 2007 , we will ask them to allow us to go forw a rd a nd use our o ve rmatch fund s to get th e d esi gn started , so t ha t it cou ld st ill be built in 2008 . Mayor Wolosyn asked if there was any discussion . Council Member Woodward said just a comment. Last week there was an Open Space meeting and Trails meeting down in Littleton with the County Commissioners and the stakeholders on the South Platte River . And this particular area was identified as being real important to get the east and west connections back into the trails, especiall y in the Ci ty of Englewoo d. W ith the TIP financing and the leverage that we are able to do , I am real supportive of this . I think the Parks Master Plan , as pointed out in Trails and Open Space , are very high on the list of the citizens and so I am supportive of this .

COUNCIL BILL NO . 39 INTRODUCED BY COUNCIL MEMBER WOODWARD A BILL FOR AN ORDINANCE AUTHORIZING AN INTERGOVERNMENTAL AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE COLORADO DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION (COOT) AND THE CITY OF ENGLEWOOD , Englewood City Council October 2, 2006 Page 10 COLORADO, THAT PERTAINS TO CONSTRUCTION OF A BRIDGE OVER THE PLATT E RIVER AT DARTMOUTH AVENUE .

COUNCIL MEMBER TOMASSO MOVED, AND IT WAS SECONDED , TO APPROVE AGENDA ITEM 11 (b) (i) -ORDINANCE NO. 35, SERIES OF 2006. ORDINANCE NO. 35, SERIES OF 2006 (COUNCIL BILL NO . 37 , INTRODUCED BY COUNCIL MEMBER WOODWARD.) AN ORDINANCE VACATING THE ALLEY RIGHT-OF -WAY LOCATED IN THE 1800 TO 1900 BLOCK , BETWEEN SOUTH RARITAN AND SOUTH TEJON STREETS , IN THE CITY OF ENGLEWOOD, COLORADO . Mayor Wolosyn asked if there was any discussion . There was none . Vote results : Mot ion carr ied . Ayes : Council Members Barrentine , Mccaslin , Moore , Wolosyn , Woodward , Tomasso , Oakley Nays : None (c) Resolutions and Motions (i) Director Kahm presented a recommendation from the Publ ic Works Department to approve a motion award ing a contract to Maj or Env ironmental Serv ices fo r environmental mon itor ing an d cons u lt ing services re lated to the reconstruct ion of the Golf Cou rse and redevelopment of assoc ia ted pro perty in th e amount of $264 ,000 .00 . He said as we go forward w ith the Golf Cou rse proje ct , there a re two pieces tha t affect the C ity . T here are two separate VCUP 's , Voluntary Compl ian ce cl eanup docume nts ... on e that affects the development that Mill e r Weingarten is doing and one that affects the Golf Course . In the case of the Miller Weingarten VCUP, 53 acres of what they are redeveloping ... the City of Englewood owns and is leasing to them . And so, even though they are doing the work on that landfill, the City is still responsible as the generator of the hazardous material that gets moved to another landfill . So, it is critical that the City oversee and watch over their shoulders to make sure that all the material that is leaving that 53 acres ... ends up in a proper landfill. And , that is the purpose of thi s env iro nme ntal con tract. The same fo lks will also come into play any time we encounter a n e nviro nme nta l issu e as the Gol f Course itse lf is being constructed, because much of that property is still on a landfill and any t ime that they, for ins tance, just trench through the dirt and get into trash , then that comes in to play and that has to be dealt with . In this particular instance , the work on the 53 acres will be spread over approximately a six month period and while they are doing that work , they will be active out there 20 hours a day, seven days a week . So, we will have to monitor almost around the clock . Mayor Wolosyn said thank you Rick . Are there any questions? Council Member Woodward said I have a question . On the second to last page here , under the Major Environmental Services , Inc., under their letterhead ... the very last sentence on that first page : It is our understanding that the City will provide an on -site job trailer with electrical power and heat. He said do we have a job trailer or ... Mr . Kahm said we will have a trailer . Mr . Woodward said we will have one? Mr . Kahm said we Englewood City Council October 2, 2006 Page 11 will rent one and Major Environmental will work out of it and it will also provide office space for Jerrell's consultant that will oversee the Golf Course construction . Mr . Woodward said so that is another part of our $650,000 .00 settlement ... that we are considering there . Mr. Kahm said yes it is . Mr. Woodward said okay , thank you . Council Member Oakley said I have a comment. From the very beginning that was one of my primary concerns ... the landfill ... knowing full well what was in there since I worked on City landfills . And, I think this is very important for us to be doing this . COUNCIL MEMBER WOODWARD MOVED, AND IT WAS SECONDED, TO APPROVE AGENDA ITEM 11 (c) (i) • A CONTRACT WITH MAJOR ENVIRONMENTAL SERVICES FOR ENVIRONMENTAL MONITORING AND CONSUL TING SERVICES RELATED TO THE RECONSTRUCTION OF THE GOLF COURSE AND REDEVELOPMENT OF ASSOCIATED PROPERTY IN THE AMOUNT OF $264,000.00. Vote results: Motion carried. Ayes : Council Members Barrentine, Mccaslin, Moore, Wolosyn, Woodward , Tomasso, Oakley Nays : None Mayor Wolosyn said thank you Rick . Mr. Kahm said thank you so much . 12. General Discussion (a) Mayor's Choice (i) Mayor Wolosyn said we have several items that we have to complete on the Study Session and I am going to continue that discussion after this meeting adjourns in the other room . I feel that the nature of the discussion requires us to be in that room and it will be easier for me to monitor it. It will still be a public meeting and it will still be recorded . (Clerk's note : Circumstances required Council to reconvene the Study Session in Council Chambers at the end of the regular meeting .] (ii) Mayor Wolosyn said Cathy Mandel, who is the head of the Lights On After School! program in the Englewood Schools , called Sue Bradshaw late on Thursday ... and asked if she could have a proclamation honoring their Lights On After School! on October 1 i h Sue worked with me to tell her that we cou ld exped ite it , but tha t I would ask Council 's perm ission to pass th is proclamat ion ton igh t. I am go ing to pass it out and hope that you agree . It is a great prog ram ... Kid Q uest ... l think it has been going for abo ut fi ve years and it started with a Federal grant, but it is maintaining itself without and it really does help out in this community . COUNCI L MEMBER TOMASSO MOVED, AND IT WAS SECONDED , TO APPROVE A PROCLAMATION DECLARING OCTOBER 12 , 2006 AS LIGHTS ON AFTER SCHOOL I DAY . Motion carried . Ayes : Council Mem bers Barrent ine, Mccaslin, Moore, Wolo syn, Woodwar d , Tomass o, Oak ley Nays : None Mayor Wolosyn said I will make sure that this gets to the District. Thank you guys for helping me expedite that. (iii) Mayor Wolosyn said I noticed in the general part of our packet a letter from Doug Cohn asking if he could have the original of the letter complimenting the Englewood Days along with the photos that we re includ ed and I don 't see a problem with this . Can we do this for Doug? Mr . Tomasso said I think he deserves that. All Council was in agreement. Englewood City Council October 2, 2006 Page 12 (iv) Mayor Wolosyn sa id Le igh Ann Hoffh ines and I and the members of the Cultural Arts Commission would li ke to tell you that the annual judg ing will be on Wednesday , at the Cultural Arts Commission meeting at 5:45 ... for the art calendar . The judging will be set up in the C ity Manager/City Council conference room some time tomorrow , so we invite and urge anybody who wants to participate in this ... to stop by if they can 't make it to the Cultural Arts meeting at 5 :45 on Wednesday . (v) Mayor Wolosyn said I am go ing to address the issues in the Study Sessio n. Wayne I th ink that when it comes to your Council Cho ice , would you like to address the woman in the aud ience abo ut th e tragedy . Mr. Oakley said yes , I w ill do that. Ms . Wolosyn said thank you . Mayor Wolosyn sa id I would like to follow up on the comments from Lorena Beauregard ... Mr . Campbe ll in particular and all the concerns of the postal workers in our City . As you may know , we are revisiting our vicious dog ordinance and, really, the inpu t couldn 't have come at a more opportune time, because it dovetailed very well with our discussion tonight. In addition, I would like to have follow-up on Lorena 's issue ... that particula r issue of being asked to not deliver mail to an entire street. I would just like a little more information on that from staff and Mr. Campbell with the dog on the 3200 block of Corona. I just want you to know that we take your concerns seriously and felt your input will definitely be part of our discussion , which will happen next Monday night. .. not tonight as we need more information . One of our Council people gave us more information that we couldn't read tonight, so I post;Joned the majority of that discussion to next Monday at 6 o'clock . Thank you . (b) Council Members' Choice (i) Counc il Member Barrent ine : 1. She said I would like to re iterate some of wha t she sa id . It is very timely that you guys came on th is issue , but it isn 't just to address whether we have an ord inance that is tough enough or not , but certa inly whether it is being enforced ... where we are with that. .. and you brought us some serious issues on the enforcement piece . And so I appreciate that Olga has asked for some of that to be looked into and I am sure that we will have some of that information available for our discussion on the dog issue , as we are look ing at the ord inance and discussing the dog issue as well. It is eye open ing to hear that , that many compla ints can be filed and maybe we have some issues . No matter how strong you make a law , if it is not enforced , it means nothing, so we will be looking at that at the same time . I am sorry about your loss of your dog . I apprec iate yo ur prov iding the other information . It is a little too much to look through right now and I do remember when th at happened and I also remember the sentiments of that officer and how upset he was of what had happened as well . But you have some addit ional information ... you provided some other things to look through and I apprec iate that and I am sorry that you lost the an imal. 2. She sa id li ke I sa id earlie r, I wen t to the op e n ing of St arbucks . Al so , on my w ay to the open ing of Starbucks, I a lso saw the work that the y are doing to open the Panda Express . I had the opportunity to go with Darren and also see how some of our consulting fees are spent, through Community Development, in working with Alignment Masters on a redevelopment project that he would like to do for that corner. He has quite a large area over there on Chenango and Broadway. She said they invited me to go with them, when they talked to the owner of George's Bar and Grill . He would like to turn it into more of a restaurant and it really gave me a lot of insight into how user friendly Community Development has become . I heard a lot of great compliments from the people at Starbucks, from John at Alignment Masters and from the owner of George 's . I have been hearing so many positive things ab o ut working with Community Development. I know that there was some change-over in personnel, but it certainly takes a great deal of leadership on Bob Simpson's part ... every department has its share of problems, but it takes leadership to overcome those and move forward . Also, with some other plans that are in the w orks, for a business office, there are some concerns about trying to move forward with that. And it was that afternoon, wi thin a couple of hours, that Bob had already contacted that property owner and started working on that, so that we could go ahead and move forward with that within the system . So, I wanted to say that I may not have always been the biggest fan , but you won me over and I certainly am now and the citizens and the business owners are profiting from that and so is the community . Thank you very much Bob ... I appreciate it. .. and to your Department and to Darren Holl ingsworth as well. It was an eye opening experience and it is nice . One of the people said , you know , well what do they do , you know , as far as the C ity j ust prov iding money? ... and that is not what they are doing . They are help ing people put that crowbar in their wa llet Englewood City Council October 2 , 2006 Page 13 and spend their money in this commun ity . They are not gett ing people to invest in Englewood , because they are able to offer them tax rebates or funds or they offer them expertise , information , some tax rel ief, but those are through Federal programs w ith the Enterprise Zone and then some that are City, but it is a min imal piece of that. What they are offering is information and their expertise and it is wonderful to see all of that going on . I wanted to clear that up , because a few people have an assumpt ion that some of these people com ing in weren 't gett ing any k ind of breaks from the City tax w ise or actually getting money from the City and in most of those situations that is not the case . That takes a lot to be able to get somebody to open up their wallet and hand ove r that money and invest in the community . I appreciate what you did . {ii) Council Member Mccaslin said after some of the feedback that I heard ton ight and the residents that I talked to about some of the Code Enforcement issues ... as far as dogs and weeds ... I do , personally , feel that we have some issues and whether we are too lenient or we are not enforcing them , it is wrong . It is absolutely wrong . I th ink we need, as a Council , to give better direction to our employees to help keep Englewood clean and a safer place . I truly , truly believe that. We are not going to get people to move here if they feel it is unsafe or not clean and I am tired of hearing it. Hopefully, we can give some direction to keep it a safe and clean place. Thank you . {iii) Council Member Moore said I would like to also recognize the valuable input from the mail carriers, I appreciate the timeliness of you guys coming out and I am perplexed by the number of incidents and the solutions proposed ... particularly cutting off a neighborhood from their mail to fix one problem . So , I too look forward to hearing about how that could be put forth as a fix, but I know we will have more fun next Monday. {iv) Counc il Member Oakley : 1. He sa id yes , I would lend my comments to that same subj ect. Being a dog person myself, I a m am az ed at the amount of people that have dogs ... that they have them because t hey know that they are maybe on the vic ious side and they like that they have that kind of control over people . And I can 't imagine why people let their dogs run loose , know ing the harm that they do to other people . We just have to do someth ing about th is . 2 . He said getting back to Deborah Sullivan 's talk here before us tonight ... this is a little bit backwards from what I intended ... ! intended to bring it up at Study Session ... but Debbie d id call me two times last Thursday and then we talked aga in today and you can see how d istraught she was ton ight about her dog , as she was when she spoke to me . Her biggest problem , at the time she talked to me , was that Council had not seen the packet that she had presented and that was explained to me that , that went to the City Attorney 's Office . I would tell he r that that is the way th ings happen , because we are part ti me people here and the C ity Atto rn ey is f ull time ... so they handle these things for us . Bu t, we do know what is go ing on and , at an appropriate ti me , the C ity Attorney bri ngs th is stuff before us and I am su re that w ill be the case here and th ere may be m o re comment on that too . {v) Council Member Tomasso said last week I attended an Arapahoe County meeting that brought together a lot of stakeholders on the South Platte . Also . in attendance was the Mayor, Mayor Pro Tern . Mr. Oakley and myself and the City Manager and we had a member of the Community Development and a member of our Parks Department. We were asked if we were interested in participating in the program . I th o ught by our att endance that we looked like we were, because some cities only had one representative and we had most of the City Co uncil there . But it is an issue that I think should be presented to the full City Council to see how much we want to participate . And then , if we do want to participate, who we should appoint as our representative ... maybe Dave Lee , since they made Dave sit at the table while the rest of us sat in the audience . He could be the one that would inform us , so he would be up to speed with everything that is going on . So, that is an issue that is on the table and we need to look at. Mayor Wolosyn said I agree that should be at a future Study Session and I saw Jim Taylor the other day and he asked me about our participation . I told him we would get back to him . Mr . Tomasso said yes . {vi) Council Member Woodward : Englewood City Council October 2, 2006 Page 14 1. He said well I had mentioned that at the same meeting that Ray had attended, the Mayor and I left early to go to Keystone and meet up with Jerrell Black from the Parks and Recreation, and meet up with some other Parks and Rec people up there from Englewood, to accept another Columbine award . This award is the highest award that the State Parks and Recreation Department can give a city for a program, which was Pirate's Cove . So, I would like to personally congratulate Jerrell Black , Gary Hultberg, and especially Brad Anderson for all of the work in the success of Pirate's Cove in winning another award for such a fine program Council Member Barrentine said congratulations . There was applause. 2 . He said I would also like to address the mail carriers and incidentally, I did not ask the mail carriers to come here tonight. I had nothing to do with that. .. I didn't know that they were coming. But for sure, I am very concerned about what you are talking about and I think this segues right into what I have been trying to discuss about dangerous and vicious dogs in our community . Believe me, we are dealing with that right now and I believe it comes up at our Study Session, as I understood it from you Olga, next week again . We will be looking at it and the enforcement is a real concern . I would like the same answers and I would like the answers also as a Code Enforcement Advisory Committee liaison ... why we aren't enforcing this and what is going on . 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) Assistant City Attorney Reid said I don't have anything unless Wayne would like to address the Sullivan claim . Council Member Oakley said that would be up to you, if you think it is appropriate . Ms. Reid said just for those who are not familiar it, Ms . Sullivan did deliver a packet to the City on June 20 1 h . July 3rd we received a memo from the State Safety Services Department. They had conducted an internal review and, in this particular case, the officer was cleared of any wrong doing. At that time, that same day, Ms . Sullivan's attorney filed a claim ... under the Statutes they must file a claim within six months and this was six months . A notice of claim against the City was filed ... a Civil claim ... and the City, per usual procedure, referred that to our insurance carrier ... CIRSA. That claim was denied by CIRSA. At this point , that is the status of the claim . Mayor Wolosyn said thank you . 15. Adjournment LOSYN MOVED TO ADJOURN . The meeting adjourned at 8 :48 p .m . 1. 2. 3. 4. 5.

Consideration of Minutes of Previous Session (a) COUNCIL MEMBER TOMASSO MOVED , AND IT WAS SECONDED , TO APPROVE TH E MINUTES OF THE REGULAR CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF SEPTEMBER 5 , 2006. Mayor Wo losyn asked if there was any discussion . There was none . Vote res ults : Motion carried . Ayes : Council Members Barrentine, Mccaslin , Moore , Wolosyn , Woodward , Tomasso, Oakley Nays : None Englewood City Council September 18, 2006 Page 2 6 . Recognition of Scheduled Public Comment (a) Kevin Dixon, an Englewood resident, said the reason I am here is because about a year and half ago City Council changed a zoning law to allow only duplexes on a 60 foot frontage, and about 90 % of the parcels in Englewood are 50 foot frontage, so it eliminated a lot of the redevelopment that was starting to occur . I am specifically talking about north Englewood ... between Broadway and Elati primarily, to Galapago and to Santa Fe . The new law stopped some of the redevelopment right in its tracks . There are a few projects that kept going, because it happened to be on 75 foot lots. But prior to that, there were starting to get some momentum to redevelop this neighborhood, which, frankly, has gotten a little rundown . Most of the projects that were done, were done by a man named Jim Wishmier and he has done a good job . They are good looking projects . I can give you the addresses at a later time, if you want to take a drive by and make sure that the quality is acceptable . I have been investing in the neighborhood myself. I have a couple of rental homes and just as I was getting ready to submit some plans, the law was changed . So, it changes the economics when you cannot build a duplex anymore and all you can build on your 50 foot lot is a single family home . You can't do it anymore . Jim's duplexes ... some of the units have sold for $300,000.00 a piece . So, in the previous model, he was getting a total of $600,000 .00 for the development. Now he is forced to build single family homes ... he cannot get $600,000 .00 for a single family home in this neighborhood . The highest home in the entire neighborhood is about $260,000.00 and his duplex units, getting $300,000 .00, were even higher than that but they are not out of the range of the neighborhood . So , economically, it makes sense as a duplex ... single family home ... the model doesn't work any more and you're stuck with these older homes that are really getting obsolete. On some blocks , about 60% of the homes are starting to get really run down . They may not have a basement or a low height basement. That means you can 't fix this house up . You 've got to tear it down and build something with an acceptable basement, because people in this area love their basements . So , this law really cut the legs right out from under Jim and some of us who were getting ready to redevelop . To pass a law like this , it is almost like down-zoning . And down-zoning is a little bit like taking away some property rights. because all of a sudden you don't have the ability to do with your property what you thought you could . It also applies to all of the homeowners that are just still living in the neighborhood in their single family home. Jim could afford to pay $215 ,000 .00 to anybody with , let's say , a 75 foot lot and about $180,000 .00 to somebody with a 50 foot lot, if he could build a duplex on the 50 foot lot and a triplex on the 75 foot lot. But, under the new rules , he has determined that it is about 30% less that he can afford to pay them now. So, it is actually taking money out of the pockets of everybody in that neighborhood by doing this . Now, possible suggestions ... I understand that you have dir ected the Development staff to have some flexibility in regard to redevelopment along Broadway and we are saying if we have a good look ing proposal for a duplex on a 50 foot lot , I would ask for some flexibil ity from the Planning and Development staff so that we can still build duplexes ... especially close to the new Bates Avenue Station , on the west side of Broadway . It is going to be such a nice walkable neighborhood . A little more density is welcome and there will just be a few more people in the neighborhood making it livelier ... going to businesses on Broadway as well as the proposed businesses on Bates . Thanks a lot. 7 . Recognition of Unscheduled Public Comment (a) Douglas Garrett, an Englewood resident, said I am here mainly to introduce Mr. Loss . We have talked over the last year and a half about the Golf Course Development that is go ing to take place across the street. As we get closer to the time that hopefully that will happen, we thought it would be worthwhile for Council to hear from the developer. Miller Weingarten Realty is going to be represented ton ight by John Loss , Executive Vice-President. John has been the principal , if not sometimes the only , negotiator from M iller Weingarten over the last eighteen months . So, he is here to give us a brief update on wh at is going on . Thank you . (b) John Loss said I appreciate this opportunity. Like Doug said, I know with all the tim e and hard wor that has gone on by the Council members, their staff , and consultants, that you are all very well informed nd conv rsant about this proiect , but I thought it might be worthwhile to get the most current update and have it b from th dev lopers perspective . We have been work in g on this project for about three years and I r m rnb r thr y r go , right when we were elected to do the proj ect , the most common question was : with Englewood City Council September 18, 2006 Page 3 all the complexities that are involved in this , is this project really going to happen? Over the last two years , I think the question has really been the same ... all the complexities, is it going to happen? Our answer has been for the last two years, we are making good progress , there are still a lot of things that have to happen, but we are very optimistic and we do think it will eventually occur . Now we are literally, I think , on the eve of something really happening here and the answer that I give when the same question is put forth ... is it going to happen? My answer is ... all the pieces are now put together , or close to being put together, and we intend to close and move forward on the project in September or October . I've mentioned that there are a number of complexities on this project that aren't typical in most development projects that we get involved in . I think you folks are aware of most of them . Clearly , the diverse ownership of the property ... there are over 25 different owners in the approximately 125 acres that this project will encompass . We are now in a position where we believe we have the requisite control and ability to acquire those properties . The environmental situation here is, again, one where I think most people are aware of. It is being built on two old landfills and there are significant environmental concerns and hazards that go along with that condition . The process of dealing with that has been a complicated one dealing with the State of Colorado , the County ... Englewood has been very involved, so has Sheridan ... basically we are going to take care of this part of the project with a voluntary clean-up plan ... a VCUP ... and that document is in place and we think we have the resources and ability to perfect that part of the project. Make no mistake, having a situation where you are needing to come to another municipality ... Englewood ... and ask them to consider a situation where the utilization of 50 acres of their property, is another complication that you don't normally fit into. I feel Hke we are very , very close to being able to say that, that part of the puzzle has been completed . We are down to just a few details that I think are very manageable . We had hoped to start by the end of September . We are going to possibly make it , but there is some chance that it will slip into October. We absolutely know that there is no exception to our commitment that the Course has to be open by Memorial Day of 2008 . And working with the City staff. we are definitely going to make that happen . Bond financing is another unique complexity to this project , because of the massive amounts of premium costs involved in acquiring the property and clean ing it up . This project needs a very significant public subsidy , which will be done in the form of the issuance of tax increment financing bonds . And again, that is another complexity that we feel is now very much in place. Our company spent a significant amount of money on this project. It is going to go forward . We very much appreciate the hard work and efforts of the City . We worked very closely on this . We just can't help but think this is going to end up being a win/win/win proposition for Englewood, Sheridan and for us as the developer . I would like to be able to, if you so desire , to answer any other questions you might have . Mayor Wolosyn said thank you John . Although we don't usually conduct a question and answer forum at this point in the meeting , I thought that tonight, since John is here , we could take a few minutes if we have questions that are relatively brief and if we have more complex questions, we can pose those through staff. But to be respectful of his time , I would like to give him the opportunity to address any issues that we may have . And also ... let us be mindful that we have quite a few c itizens here to talk tonight. So with that said, we will open the floor to Council. Council Member Barrentine said I didn't know that you were coming and I would have appreciated receiving some information, so that we could have been prepared . That would have been more useful for me . I do appreciate the update . Usually, we wouldn 't do this at a public meeting with a five minute limit. Mr . Loss said if you think of something afterwards, I will be glad to talk to you . Ms . Barrentine said maybe we could schedule it for a Study Session , if you would be willing to do that if we had other questions . Mr . Loss said I would be glad to do it. Mayor Wolosyn asked if there was anything else . Council Member Woodward said Mr . Loss , could you address or tell us where you are with your leases with .. .from what I understand ... Costco , J .C . Penney , Target, the theaters? Mr . Loss said yes, all four of those are ones that are quite far advanced . They are conditions precedent to closing on the bonds and each one of those ... in add ition to the specific lease form , or in the case of the purchase and sale agreement. .. because of couple of these entities are purchasing property ... in all of those instances, they w ill be governed by what is called an OEA .... an Operating and Easement Agreement , which is a govern ing document that ties the entire Englewood City Council September 18, 2006 Page 4 shopping center together , and that contract is being negotiated and agreed to among all the parties at the same t ime as these lease or purchase contracts are moving forward . Mr . Woodward said you feel that , that is going very positively forward . Mr . Loss said I do . Mr . Woodward said great. Mayor Wolosyn asked if there was anything else. Mayor Wolosyn said I would like to thank you and I wou ld also like to add that I have been out of town for the last four days . I got back in at 4 p.m . and I think you guys came up with this on Friday morning and I wasn't around to address this as an Agenda item, so I appreciate your coming and apologize for any inconvenience of Council. Thank you . (c) Gary Tisch said my main business is commercial real-estate . I have properties in Denver and Lakewood, but mainly on South Broadway . I also own the Liquor Barn on South Broadway . My concern here tonight is what happened at the liquor hearing on September 61 h . I just want to get one thing out in the open . Everybody understands why I don't want a liquor store two blocks down the street from mine . I'm not here to talk about that. However, what happened at that hearing was not right either . There are a number of points that I want to make. One was that apparently the decision to grant this liquor license was weighted primarily on the petitions and, according to my attorney , a liquor license is supposed to be granted on needs and desires . The petitions showed the need, they don't show a desire . Sixty people who were here that night expressed their desire . Now you have a Chairman named Ron Lunders ... that time after time, when people came up and talked , they were shut down . They were shut down for things like ... when there was a woman , I don 't know her name , but she owns a house right behind this proposed liquor store, she says I don 't want a liquor store there , because there are schools . And Lunders shut her down , because he says that according to Statute th is school is outsid e this 500 foot statute area ... this liquor store can be there . Her desires have nothing to do with the Statutes . Her desire is not to put a liquor store in there . And, many people were shut down based on this, which is not fair . All these sixty people came in and they described whatever their own reasons were for not putting in this liquor store . All of those have desires . There are also eleven liquor stores within th is immediate area ... five of them were in close . I would also point out that these liquor stores ... they are a little bit more sensitive than some businesses in the sense that you can group certa in bus iness together ... like restaurants . You can put twelve different restaurants together and you create a need or people come to one area for restaurants ... it becomes an area where they can go to . Liquor stores ... if you put twelve liquor stores together , they are going to die . You can't put that many liquor stores together . So , you know , these people who own these liquor stores, they have had them for decades . Some people have had them fo r a long time . They pay a lot of taxes . They have paid a lot of taxes to the City fo r a long time . And , they are people just like you and me . They have mortgages to pay an d children to feed . And when you start pack ing in all these liquor stores, they can't survive . Now my point here this evening, is that I, time and time again, saw Ron Lunders, the Chairman, who has been there now for 15 years, shut people down when he had no business, in my opinion, shutting them down for their desires . At the end, there were two people that said they wanted this liquor store and about sixty that said they didn't. .. and they weren't even considered . So the way I understand this is this Liquor Board is appointed by the City Counc il and their actions are reflections on you . Now if all these people are shut down, why would they want to come to your meetings . I don't understand . What I also brought with me tonight was ... I had this pulled from the City records, Ron Lunders voting record for the last 15 years on liquor stores ... on ten liquor stores he voted to put nine of them in . I think he has his own agenda . I made some copies . I don't know if you want to take a look at them . Mayor Wolosyn said just leave them with the Clerk and she will get them to us . Mr . Tisch said I'm requesting that you have somebody, as a Chairman , that is not so one-sided . I think Ron Lunders has his own agenda . There were a lot of people here that night and they were not listened to and this is not the first time . That record that I just turned in over there, you should take a close look at it. At least put someone in here that listens to the people . He has been there for 15 years ... maybe it is long enough . Thanks . (d) Jon Liberman , an Englewood resident , said I wrote the letter that should be cc 'd to you all regarding the liquor hearing last week . Mayor Wolosyn said we received it. Mr . Liberman said I just request that the Council please consider my points , particularly the Board 's total disregard for the testimony of the people who were here . As Gary sa id, there were 50 or 60 people against it and maybe 2 people for it. Also , I Englewood City Council September 18, 2006 Page 5 don 't believe that we really need two liquor stores that close to one another offering exactly the same product. It gives a seedy image of Englewood and it limits our commercial diversity . That is all I have to say. Thank you for hearing me . Mayor Wolosyn said thank you for coming . (e) Ira Wier, an Englewood resident , said I have been a resident of this town for 48 years . I've talked to a lot of people and we had a lot of people come and there isn't any way people know that there is even going to be a hearing . They posted a little bitty note in front of that store, where they want that liquor store , and the only reason we ever found out is the Liquor Barn had a survey . They come around ... it was a lady, she did a good job . She didn't say for ... she said, we are taking a survey and we want to know if you are for or against it and you signed your name and you put down whether you are for or against it. And when we had the hearing , she had more people against it than for it. Then the guy that was proposing to have the liquor store there , they had a person go around doing a survey and they had more people for it than against it. I had one of my neighbors tell me he came to his door and asked him if he was for or against it. He said against it so he didn 't even write down his name. I met these people in the street , across the street from my house , and they asked me if I was for or against it and I said no, I am against it. I don't like liquor stores and I am against it and I don't think there should be two liquor stores that close, and for lots of reasons . First of all, there is a school that is too close for the liquor store to be there . And second of all , there is a traffic problem there ... there is 7-Eleven, there will be people driving through 7-Eleven, and everything else, going to that liquor store . It is just a traffic problem . There are sixty people here to the liquor meeting ... they all said that they were against having a liquor store there . So , the people on the Board listening to the licensing, they listened to us and everything else. but I am pretty sure ... I feel that they had their mind made up before we even got here . They let us come in and talk , then they came out and they said we are going back and talk it over ... they came back and talked it over and three of them voted for it and the one that was the last one to vote for was the one that was over , handling it. I don 't know his name ... he was the one that has been there the longest. And one person on there that voted to go ahead and have it was a brand new person and I feel that he influenced them . I asked them how they knew that the school was further than 500 feet away and they said well , somebody measured it. And I said I wanted to ask them who, but I didn't get to ask them who measured it or how they measured it. I went to a guy that works for a survey company and he did it by satellite . And after they told us that they approved it, he come out and told me ... he said it is 581 feet from the school. Okay, I wanted to find out how they come up with that 581 fee t. And another point I want to br ing up , when you measure something, you measure it from one point to the other point. If you measure a board , you measure from one end to the other end ... if you measure a room , from one end to the other end . And if you had a restraining order against somebody for 500 feet , if they come within 500 feet of you , they are breaking the law . And this school is like a reverse restraining order. The liquor store can't be within 500 feet of the school and I have papers showing a satellite that it is 453 feet from the corner of the liquor store to the corner of the schoo l. And the way they did it , they went down Broadway, across Tufts and up to that corner. Yo u d on't me asure thin gs from going way out of the way to get there ... it is a li ne of s igh t. .. 500 feet. A nd it is less than 500 feet and I have sa te llite p ictures to sh ow you . Mayor Wolosyn said if you give those to the Clerk she can make copies of them for us . Mr . Wier said I have copies . He said I feel that the Liquor Board didn 't even consider what we were saying . They don 't pay any attention to the people . They ... the government , is supposed to be for the people , by the people ... they are supposed to listen to us, but right now I feel that it is for the rich , by the rich . Mayor W olosyn said thank you very much . Thanks for bri nging the ma terials . (f) Ellen Roebuck -Cole , an Englewood resident , said I am unprepared . I did not realize that it was going to be a presentation situation . I am opposed to the additional liquor license and it is primarily for all the reasons you are going to hear from everybody else tonight , so I am not going to duplicate that. W hat I do want you to know , is that I am a sales rep and I am out of town 60% of the time and I have taken two nights in the last 30 days to be here to vo ice my opinion on this particular issue . That is how important it is to me . That's it. Mayor Wolosyn said thank you very much . Englewood City Council September 18, 2006 Page 6 (g) Brad Cole , an Englewood resident , said I didn't know I had to present ton ight either. I am to support the view against getting another liquor license issued . I was at that meeting and quite frankly it was unbelievable . There were so many people in support of not granting another liquor license and only a couple of people for the liquor license . We were just blown off. When I got home, I was beside myself. My interests weren't represented . I wasn't listened to . I was ready to sell my house in Englewood and leave but , you know , I'm not going to do that. .. I can't. The guy didn 't listen and he shut us down . Sorry, I'm a little keyed up. Than k you . Mayor Wolosyn said thank you . (h) Paul Hendricks , an Englewood resident, said I've had a few days to think about this . I didn't attend that meeting ... that doesn't surprise me ... that kind of stuff goes on in Washington all the time where the minority gets squashed . Well , this is squashing the majority , wow . I analyze it this way ... I will use a metaphor that everybody here knows well. The film ... lt's a Wonderful Life ... you got the character that Lionel Barrymore plays wanting to develop a city a certain way according to his venal interests . That means it was for money ... he was in it for the money . And you only have to say, Jimmy Stewart , and you know what direction he wanted to take the town and you've got a choice, and you can affect the way things go . We can fill Broadway from Denver to Littleton with liquor stores for purely venal reasons that have nothing to do with the quality of life of the citizens , that has nothing to do with the will of the people . I think you ought to overturn that Liquor Board license if you have the power to do it. Oh, and that is all I have to say and if you want anymore out of me you will have to torture me . There was laughter. Mayor Wolosyn said thank you Paul. (i) Linda Hendricks , an Englewood resident , said I don 't have very much to say , because pretty much all of it has been said . I just would like to go on the record as being against the granting of the liquor license . We don 't need another one that close to the Liquor Barn , the seediness ... like was mentioned ... along Broadway and it being too close to the school. .. quality of life ... all of those are the ingredients as to why I am against it. U) Annette Story, an Englewood resident , said I have lived in Englewood all my life . I am also opposed to this new liquor store . We've got problems with those two hotels that are on Broadway there . There is crack being smoked in the alley back there and I just think this would attract more of the same sort of seedy people . I also heard about the meeting where everyone was dism issed and nobody seemed to care about ou r opi ni ons . And one of the things that was asked was ... do you shop the liquor store? And when a person sa id yes they did , well tha t was the end of it ... they had no opinion before the Board . So , I just wanted to also say that I am opposed to the liquor store and hope that you will overturn the decis ion . Thanks . (k) Norma W ier , an Eng le woo d resi dent , said I'm a lifetime resi dent of Englewood . I am also opposed to the liquor store going in there and I was at the meeting . But, what I wanted to suggest was it is kind of ironic that we have to put up a huge sign on someone 's property to have ... maybe a garage made larger or a fence put up , but we have a little tiny sign in the window which nobody could even see from the street. We have our Englewood Citizen ne wsletter that goes out and I noticed that you did put the budget meeting in there . I would like to sugges t tha t all sche d uled meetings are put in this Engle wo od Ci tizen . We used to have the Englewood Herald ... you kno w all of our meetings and things were in there . It was our Englewo o d paper , and since we don't have tha t , I would like to see the Citizen used so that the people are informed on what is going on . Thank you . Mayor Wolosyn said thank you ... the Herald still exists, the Herald is still a publication in Englewood . Ms . Wier said it is? Ms . Wolosyn said yes . (I) James Beadling , an Englewood resident, said the reason I am here ton ight is just. .. I th ink you need to listen to the people of the City . We don't need another liquor store, espec ia lly around kids . Kids don't know 500 feet. All they know is they walk home and they are going to pass another liquor store . I don 't think we need 1t. I really don 't. I think the biggest thing is that you need to listen to the people of the City . Thank you . Englewood City Council September 18, 2006 Page 7 Mayor Wolosyn said thank you . (m) Dan Duncan, an Englewood residen t, said I have lived here about six months and I am very impressed, it is a beaut iful town . I think that the people are very friendly. But , I couldn 't help notice in getting to know the area, that the hotels and some of the other areas along that same stretch , seem to be in fil trated with less than probably ideal people wandering around . And I just th ink that if that liquor store were to be put in , it is going to be another situation for those people to wander into and create additional clutter and possibly have additional crime in that area . So , I just wanted to say that I am opposed to the liquor store . Thank you. Mayor Wolosyn said thank you . (n) Jennifer McKee, an Englewood resident , said I am also very opposed to this liquor license tha t was approved . And I did not know about the September 61 h meeting otherwise I would have been here for that. I did happen to see the sign in the former Blockbuster building . I had no clue what that was for . I thought it would be for a permit to do some construction or building ... not to request a liquor license . I am also very concerned about this section of Broadway and what 's becoming of it. You know there has been such an emphasis to improve Broadway, north of Hampden and the results have been wonderful. I have the feeling and I sense that other people in this group do too , that the south corridor is just going in the opposite direction . I would imagine that we would like to make Englewood a place where people say ... we 've got great schools , we've got a great City Council , and we've got people who are involved . I've talked to so many people , as my son has entered kindergarten at Cherrelyn , who have told me ... l grew up in Englewood and I want my kids to live in Englewood , but if these kinds of businesses infiltrate that southern corridor, you are going to have the opposi te effect. And there w ill be an exodus and people are going to say , I don 't want to live in Englewood . It is muck on th e bottom of my shoes as I pass through to Littleton or Centennial or some place else . I see Englewood as th is wonderful neighborhood ... w ith an old town feel to it ... surrounded by a natural area . I have been getting that sense of small town feel , but we don 't need th is . And I think you do need to l isten to the people . I th ink you 've got to say ... we can 't just approve whatever businesses, because as other people have said, that there is money exchanging hands . There has got to be an attraction of other kinds of businesses to this area other than rundown motels, head shops ... you know a great fishing tackle place that now has a head shop . That is what I want my son to go to when he is in junior high , right? I don't. I would like the Council to really regard what everybody has said thus far and last week and do something to say that we are listening to you as neighbors . We do have desires and needs and we are paying our taxes and we want to make sure tha t the bus inesses that come into Englewood are going to contribute to the commun ity . That are going to contribute to the people who l iv e he re . I've lived in my home ... l never thought I would live the re fo r th is long ... l'm com ing up on 15 years, and I am the second owner of my home . That says someth ing about Englewood . There is a person who live s j ust behind me , one house over , he is the lifelong owne r of that home . The pe rson who li ves around the corner grew up in Engl ewood and th is is maybe h is third hom e in En g lewood . That is wh at Englewood has been . That is what we would like Englewood to stay , but you've got to think about the businesses that are coming in that are going to keep people who want to live here, because it is a neighborhood ... rich, quality city. Thank you. Mayor Wolosyn said thank you . (o) Jonathan Fore, an Englewood resident , said I am the Principal of Clayton Elementary in Englewood and this is my personal assistant , Olivia Fore age 10 . I would just like to start off by complimenting this organization and the City. We were walking around downtown and Olivia, out of no where, said gee , Englewood really values the arts . We were admiring all the sculptures down ciround the Civic Center and the fountain and how beautiful it was . And I said , you know, you are right Olivia , we have this Englewood Arts Council and I know the City Council, the Mayor and everyone is really behind the arts . She noticed that without me saying anything about that. And I think if we were to put in a liquor store down by 7-Eleven , our kids are going to notice that too and it is not going to be for good reasons . I don't see how that liquor store could be 500 feet from Cherrelyn . If you take that man's example of how the crow flies , I think that needs to be re-examined , because I can't see that being 500 feet from a techn ical point of view . From another point of view, what I am worrie d about is our youth in Englewood . I think there is an image problem on South Broadway ... head shops , Englewood City Council September 18, 2006 Page 8 liquor stores, tattoo parlors ... not that any of that is not , I guess, illegal, but I don't think it is a very good image . Our kids do have to walk around that area . We have Middle School and High School kids on the bus stop right there ... all day long and all night long . I really wish we wouldn 't put a liquor store there that close to another liquor store but also ... really you are in the middle of three schools ... you have Cherrelyn at Lincoln , you have Clayton at Fox and you have Sinclair at Chenango. It is just too close . And I would be worried about the example that we are setting for our kids ... especially our High School kids . We have had way too many alcohol related deaths in Englewood ... in our High School. The last thing I think this City needs is another outlet for liquors . Thank you . Mayor Wolosyn said thank you Jonathan. Mayor Wolosyn asked if there was anyone else who would like to speak . There was none . Mayor Wolosyn said thank you all for coming . Council Member Barrentine said I would ask that you please remind the people that we have Council Comment after. Mayor Wolosyn said right , we don 't address these issues now, but at the end of the meeting , people on City Council have their own issues and often return to what happened in Public Comment. Council Member Barrentine said thank you . 8 . Communications, Proclamations and Appointments (a) Proclamation in honor of Bishop Elementary School 's 50 1 h anniversary. Mayor Wolosyn said I am going to read that proclamation and I know that we have the Principal of Bishop here , Linda Mccaslin, as well as the Principal of Clayton . Mayor Wolosyn read the proclamation in full. COUNCIL MEMBER WOODWARD MOVED, AND IT WAS SECONDED, TO APPROVE AGENDA ITEM 8 (a) · A PROCLAMATION IN HONOR OF BISHOP ELEMENTARY SCHOOL'S 50TH ANNIVERSARY . Mayor Wolosyn asked if there was any discussion . Council Member Mccaslin said yes , I brought it up at the last City Council meeting and extended the inv itat ion . I personally want to thank Wayne Oakley , Ray Tomasso and Jim Woodward for showing up and showing that we are trying to work together ... the City and schools to try to bu ild a relationship . I feel gu il ty because I couldn't make it as I had other commitments, but I sent some of my staff to Bishop . There was laughter. I would like to thank you . Thank you very much from the bottom of my heart. Thank you very much for showing up . Mayor Wolosyn said thank you and asked if there were any other comments . She said I couldn't be there either , but Happy Birthday Bishop . Vote results : Mot ion carried . Ayes : Council Members Barrentine , Mccaslin , Moore , Wolosyn , Woodward , Tomasso, Oakley Nays : None Mayor Wolosyn presented the proclamation to Linda Mccaslin , the Principal of Bishop Elementary School. Council Member Woodward said I think it is worth noting that on Saturday there were a number of members of the Bishop family in attendance ... at the celebration . One had traveled ... ! believe it was all the way from North Carolina ... so that was pretty neat. Englewood City Council September 18, 2006 Page 9 (b) Proclamat ion des ignating September as National Preparedness Month . COUNCIL MEMBER TOMASSO MOVED, AND IT WAS SECONDED, TO APPROVE A PROCLAMATION DESIGNATING SEPTEMBER AS NATIONAL PREPAREDNESS MONTH. Mayor Wolosyn asked if there was any discussion . There was none . Council Member Woodward said this is something that I know Chris has been very involved with ... Ready Colorado ... and I think th is is something that we all need to be conscious of these days ... our security for ourselves and for our citizens , for our City and for our Country . Thank you . Vote results: Motion carried. Ayes : Council Members Barrentine , Mccaslin , Moore , Wolosyn , Woodward , Tomasso , Oakley Nays : None Mayor Wolosyn presented the proclamation to Director Olson . Director Olson said Mr. Woodward, thank you very much . You covered what I was going to say ... Englewood has been a very active part of, essentially, individual preparedness , which has been a very key component of the National priorities that have been developed since the 9/11 activities . With Homeland Security in place now , we are a very important component of that and I appreciate it and that is what National Preparedness Month is all about. .. so that we , as indiv idual c itizens , understand tha t it is time to take things in ou r own hands and be prepared for the worst case scenario. So thank you very much . We appreciate that. Mayor Wolosyn said thank you Chris . 9.

Public Hearing Items (a) Mayor Wolosyn said this is a Public Hearing to gather input on the City's proposed Budget for 2007 . COUNCIL MEMBER TOMASSO MOVED, AND IT WAS SECONDED, TO OPEN THE PUBLIC HEARING TO GATHER INPUT ON THE CITY'S PROPOSED BUDGET FOR 2007. Ayes : Council Members Barrentine, Mccaslin , Moore , Wolosyn, Woodward , Tomasso, Oakley Nays : None Motion carried and the public hearing opened . Director Gryglewicz, being duly sworn, said I have provided the City Clerk with Proof of Publication of this Public Hearing that was in the Englewood Herald, September 1, 8 and 15, 2006 . The City Council received its 2007 Proposed Budget on September 11 1 h . The Charter requires the Council to receive the budget by September 151 h and to hold a Public Hearing within three weeks of submission of the budget. Council will also hold a Budget Workshop on September 23'd in the Community Room at 8 :30 a.m . That is this Saturday and that is open to the public . As Council knows , the budget process begins early in the year . We usually have a Council/staff mini- retre llt or workshop and we discuss the goals and priorities for 2007 . We did have that this year and the rest of the year was spent mainly with staff estimating revenues and putting the ir proposed budgets together . In your packet, you received a budget in-brief, as it is called . It is just a small little three-fold document. .. mainly highlighting the General Fund , because the General Fund provides the revenues and accounts for expenditures that include the Fire , Police, Public Works , Recreation , etc . Those are the main public services that the City of Englewood provides . For 2007 , total revenues are estimated, right at this point, at 37 .5 million dollars . The main revenue source that the City relies on ... to provide public services ... are the sales taxes . This year they are looking like they are going to go up a little bit more than normal , because the Englewood Urban Renewal Authority tax increment bond is ending next August. That is going to add about a half a million dollars to the budget. On the expenditure side, at this point in time, expenditures are budgeted at 39 .5 million dollars . Most of that increase is due to increases in wages , benefits and energy prices . Also , I mentioned earlier in the Study Session , that the Debt Service, which we did refinance ... they are called Certificates of Participation ... on the building and improvements on this site ... next year will increase, because we took the savings in 2006 . Fund Balance , for the General Fund for 2006 , is estimated right around 18 % of revenues and next year about 12 %. And as I said , the budget will be discussed more in full this Saturday at the Budget Workshop . I am ava il able now for questions . Mayor Wolosyn said this is primarily a time for Counc il to receive input from the community. We will discuss it on Saturday. She asked if Council had any questions . There were none . Mayor Wolosyn asked if there was anyone else who wanted to speak during the Public Hearing . There was no one . COUNCIL MEMBER MOORE MOVED, AND IT WAS SECONDED , TO CLOSE THE PUBLIC HEARING TO GATHER INPUT ON THE CITY'S PROPOSED BUDGET FOR 2007 . Ayes : Council Members Barrentine, Mccaslin , Moore, Wolosyn , Woodward , Tomasso , Oakley Nays : None Motion carried and the public hearing closed . Mayor Wolosyn said thank you Frank and we will see you on Saturday. 11 . Ordinances, Resolution and Motion s (a) Approva l of Ordinances on First Read ing Englewood City Council September 18, 2006 Page 11 (i) Manager Stitt presented a recommendation from the Community Development Department to adopt a Bill for an Ordinance approving the vacation of an alley in the 1800 -1900 blocks be tween South Raritan and South Tejon Streets. He said the item before you is a request to approve an ordinance that would vacate a portion of right-of-way that is located in northwest Englewood and is bounded by West Baltic Place on the north , West Iliff Avenue on the south , South Raritan Street on the east and South Tejon Street on the west. This was presented to the Planning Commission upon an application for vacation from the residents in that area . The petition that was received by the Planning Commission reflected 100% of the property owners in that area requesting the vacat ion . After a Public Hearing , during which information was rece ived from staff, as well as from the residents in that area , the Planning Comm ission determined that it was in the public's interest to vacate this right-of-way . There are no City of Englewood public utilities in the right-of-way. However , there are Excel Energy , Comcast cable and Qwest Communications lines in that alley and the recommendat ion from the Planning Commiss ion was to vacate the alley and retain a 16 foot easement to maintain those other public ut ilities . Mayor Wolosyn asked if there was any discussion . Council Member Woodward said the photos ... specifically the ones that are showing it where it is really pretty and grassy there ... and then there is the other one where there is this horrible looking alley ... is the green the before? Mr . Stitt said I don't know exactly when these photos were taken . Obviously, the one in the upper right hand corner was taken in the Fall or Winter and the one in the lower right was taken probably th is summer . The alley was ... as was stated in the staff Report , used for a number of years and then closed and reopened because a resident in that area had submitted an applicat ion for a garage permit , which was approved and since the alley had not been vacated, access was again reopened . Apparently, that resident has now moved and the new owners in that area have determined that the alley would be better closed than left open . Mr. Woodward sa id so the one with the grass and flowers certa inly looks a whole lot nicer. And then , the only other thing, obviously I support th is ... is tha t there is , I assume , an additional cost of adding curb and gutter. It says the grading maintenance cos t. .. there is a savings we would have, but we would have a cost of adding curb and gutter according to the information provided . Is that correct? Mr . Stitt said yes , along the right-of-way on the east and west. Mr . Woodward said okay . Mayor Wolosyn asked if there was any more discussion . There was none . COUNCIL MEMBER WOODWARD MOVED, AND IT WAS SECONDED, TO APPROVE AGENDA ITEM 11 (a) (i) -COUNCIL BILL NO. 37. CO U NC IL BI LL NO . 37, INTRODUC ED BY COUNCI L MEMBER WOODWARD A BILL FOR AN ORDINANCE VACATING THE ALLEY RIGHT-OF-WAY LOCATED IN THE 1800 TO 1900 BLOCK, BETWEEN SOUTH RARITAN AND SOUTH TEJON STREETS , IN THE CITY OF ENGLEWOOD , COLORADO . Mayor Wolosyn asked if there was any discussion . There was none . Vote res ult s: Ayes : Nays : Motion carr ied .

Mayor Wolosyn asked if there was any discussion . There was none . Vote results: Motion carried . Ayes : Council Members Barrentine, Mccaslin , Moore, Wolosyn, Woodward , Tomasso, Oakley Nays : None (c) Resolutions and Motions (i) Manager Stitt presented a recommendation from the Department of Community Development to adopt a resolution authorizing the extension of the agreement with Laidlaw Transit Services , Inc ., for operat ion of the "art" shuttle for 2007 . He said as you are aware , the shuttle is operating under a grant received from the Federal government under which DRCOG pays 80%, RTD pays 10% and the City of Englewood pays 10%. We initiate the contract with Laidlaw to provide services and the original contract was negotiated for each of the three years and the years run from October through September and this will be for the final year from, actually, October 151 , 2006 through the end of September 2007 . The amount is $218 ,000 .00 and it represents an amount that was originally estimated in the original contract , so there is no increase , wh ich is d ifferent than last years contract where fuel costs and additional personnel costs were factored in for a slight in crease . This will cover our percentage of the operat ion and also provide for operation through the end of Septembe r next yea r. Mayo r Wolosyn asked if there were any questions . Council Member Woodward said this has been really valuable . Something that has been really valuable in the community and I hear a lot about it from people on both sides of Broadway ... the art shuttle and how nice it is to have it available to them . And also, the minimal increase in cost from last year to this year ... I think they figured it was not even one and a half percent. .. that's great.

General Discussion (a) Mayor's Choice (i) Mayor Wolosyn said I would like to ask Council to approve my attending the Urban Land Institute Conference here in Denver. I think it is 500 and some dollars for a local official. I serve on DRCOG , which is involved in a lot of these issues . It is here and it is something that I've always wanted to do and we don't have any travel expenses, so it seems like a great opportunity . Council Member Tomasso said I would also like to attend that conference . Mayor Wolosyn said it is $495 .00 . COUNCIL MEMBER WOODWARD MOVED, AND IT WAS SECONDED, TO APPROVE MAYOR WOLOSYN'S ATTENDANCE AT THE URBAN LAND INSTITUTE CONFERENCE. Mot ion carr ied . Ayes : Council Members Barrentine , Mccaslin , Moore , Wolosyn , Woodward , Tomasso , Oakley Nays : None COUNCIL MEMBER OAKLEY MOVED, AND IT WAS SECONDED, TO APPROVE COUNCIL MEMBER TOMASSO'S ATTENDANCE AT THE URBAN LAND INSTITUTE CONFERENCE. Ayes : Nays : Abstain : Mot ion carried . Council Members Barrentine , Mccaslin , Moore , Wolosyn , Woodward , Oa kley None Counc il Member Tomasso May o r Wolosyn sa id I apolog iz e fo r not ab s ta ining . (ii) Mayo r Wolo syn sai d under the liquor lice nse issue, w e , at the las t City C ou nci l meeting elected to address this ... just the actual laws in existence ... at a future Council meeting an d I believe we have it down for November 201 h . And we have that because of a heavy schedule and various Counc il people have asked fo r information about distance . So , we will be address ing that in the future . (iii) Mayor Wolosyn sa id the othe r issue I would like to address is the 60 foot frontage . bel ieve it stated 30 feet per uni t. I would like to say that the Commun ity Development Department did ask us to change that for the entire City and having been part of that discuss ion when we moved that law ... it was part of Counc il 's goals of try ing to establish more single family housing stock for sale in our community . That said , I think Community Development agreed that perhaps the way they stated it to us was too broad , they were going to try to shape the issue differently and br ing it back to us in the future . And right now. we are on the br ink of hav ing d iscussions about the neighborhoods around South Broadway and also around Swed ish . And I th ink th at th is issue also perta ins to issues that will come up there . We will be address ing this in the future . but it w ill be a ft er thi s process and we have mo re inform ation . Some of po ints yo u made were well tak en a nd they will be a part of th at discuss ion . I app reci at e that. (b) Co uncil Members' Ch o ice (i) Council Member Barrentine : Englewood City Council September 18, 2006 Page 14 1. She said I wanted to acknowledge the Englewood Days . It was a successful even t. A lot of peop le worked very hard on that. Chris Duis is here ... he was in cha rge of the Car Show, Bob Fa rris did the vendo rs , Doug Cohn worked tirelessly on organizing that event and I was just impressed with the way the community pulled together . It was a fun even t. It was well attended . The merchants en j oyed it , I enjoyed it , Pos itively Englewood was able to , as a fund rais ing base fo r tha t, ma ke some money for t he scholarsh ip progr am fo r the Parks and Recreation Department and it was just a very impressive event. I wanted to thank the Pub lic Wo rk s Department, Community Development , Chris Olson and his Pol ice Officers and wh ile they assured me they had a wonderful time and it wasn't really a bad duty for a Saturday, we appreciated that support in having them there . The C ity came forward to partne r with th is , but it truly was an event put on by the citizens and I appreciate the work and effort that so many people d id for that. 2 . She said I had the pleasure of go ing to the Liquor Board meeting and I had stated previously tha t I did not re -up to sit on the Liquor Board . I sat on the Liquor Board for 8 years and believed that I was an objective representative of the community, willing to listen to the evidence and not make any predeterminations on the license coming forward . When I found out that this license was coming forward, I already knew how I felt. I was in the boundaries of this liquor license and I am also the District Ill representative elected official for that area and I knew how I felt. I didn't think it was appropriate for me to stay on the Liquor Board , because I wanted to represent my constituency and oppose something that I thought would have a terrible effect on the community . I went around ... l had the opportunity at Englewood Days ... to go and talk to a lot of people on South Broadway , a lot of residents and a lot of businesses . And , they were not for this . When I testified last Wednesday ... I was test ify ing on behalf of that constituency and not just myself ... also , myself , but also the const ituency that had made it very clear to me that this is not what they wan ted in their community . Another liquor store two block s from the Liquor Barn . They did n't need it , they d idn 't want it. They ex pressed that. Over sixty people we re there and it was inappropriate the way that they we re treated . I wo u ld l ike to say that the y exaggerated, b ut they did not. They were dismissed . They were not treated w ith courtesy People were cut off . Mis infor mat ion wa s given several times that the school issue was a moot point, that that d idn 't matter. It confused people who we re trying to testify and several of them were cut off. When someone is testifying as to the ir needs and des ires an d they bel ieve that , that ought to be heard and they say that they th ink the liquor store is too close to a school. .. actually three schools ... that is valid on its own , for their needs and desires . It was inapprop ri ate fo r it to cons istently come up that it was a non -issue ... nor fo r the attorney to have been interrupted , when those issu es came up as well. She said I have a concern , as we go into Community Development issue s, a lot of th e c lea n - up that happened up on North Broadway, encouraged people to open up their wallets and inve st in North Broadway when the Day Labor places went out, when the restr ict ions went in on tattoo pa rl ors, and the check cashi ng pl aces . It opened up that environment fo r investment to go in t he re an d now you 've got a Panda E xp ress , UnD ic i, Old Dubl iner or the Truck Stop . You 've got milli ons of do ll ars of in ves tments going in, because th e C ity showed a pu re intention of what the d irection should be fo r tha t commun ity . I am saddened to see my area of town, th en, become th e dum p ing ground for some of this activity . T h is is not what that community wanted . I was further dismayed to find out that this has been tried before ... that a liquor license tried to go in that area 14 years ago and they didn't want it then either . Citizens won out at that time and I was saddened to find out that the one vote, at that time, with a community outcry not to have that license approved ... and it wasn't. .. the only vote for that liquor store , in the 3900 block, 14 years ago, was Ron Lunders . And 14 yea rs later, again, I saw people being ignored when they asked for their community not to have another liquor store . Like the Principal from C layton, he represents a school, he represents his constituency, he speaks for himself but also , as a p rofessional, for the commu n ity that he serves and the education field . And he is right , there are three schools right in that area . I tried to represent my community . I felt just as unheard as the people who spoke here tonight and believe that there should be some effort and some time put into looking into our Boards and Commissions and how they address citizens and how they uphold their duties . That is all I have to say about it. Oh, and I did bring up at the Study Session last Monday, about potentially having Council look at sett ing limits on the distances between liquor stores . I am very pro-private property rights . I don 't think it is in the best interest of the City to try and set everything by Ordinance and regulations . Unfortunately, we have a stop -gap in place already and for that liquor license it was for the citizens to be able to be heard ... 1f that is n ot g oin g to be listened to , if that check and balance isn't going to be available to the constituency , to the c1t1z ens of this co mmun ity , then it leaves no choice than to look at alternatives of trying to set ord inances in order for tho se c1 t1zen to b heard . That's it. Englewood City Council September 18, 2006 Page 15 (ii) Council Member Mccasl in: 1. He said I would like to thank Community Development and Harold Stitt. We worked household hazardous waste Saturday ... ! only worked three and a half hours , but the compliments we got from the people coming up and br inging the ir hazardous was te was unbelievable . They were praising and thanking us and you know, thank you for having this day. It was just neat. This is the first time I have ever been able to do something like this , because I was j ust elected in November . I appreciate Harold and your time and effort. You guys in Community Development do a great job . Thank you both . But like I said , all the comments were pos itive . 2 . He said this thing on South Broadway ... when we formed the BID, I asked why ... whatever happened to the people south of Hampden? You know they were concerned about the people north of Hampden and they said well we are going to work up to the end . And so, I've been concerned about ... of course , I grew up in Englewood, my parents have been here 57 years, so I was concerned about the south end . I said well you guys are taking care of the north end, what is happening to the south end? So like the young lady said, she has some concerns and so do I, so hopefully we will address those concerns . I appreciate your speaking tonight. 3 . He sa id in talking to employees of Englewood , I have heard some rumors and speculation that we we re look ing into changing our 24 hour shifts for firemen to 48 hours . And as this was brought to my attent ion , there have been a couple of great TV articles about how this is going to put a liability and stress on the employees and really make it tough . I don 't know whe re we are in this process , but I would like to hear some update on tha t. To me that is a big concern . 4 . He sa id we talk about all the bad th ings ... you know ou r divorce rate in soc iety is about 50 %, 48% or whatever it was ... but last n ight I attended a 50 1 h anniversary party for Wayne Oakley , who is one of our Counc il members , and I'll tell you what, it was a great even t. We need celebrat ions like this in our community . Too bad he couldn 't open up the whole City of Englewood , but it is pretty expensive . I really appreciate the people who showed up and I had a great time. Thank you . (i ii ) Council Member Moore : 1. He sa id in the letter from RTD , the fa re that they are mention ing , the $1 .50 , was that contemplated as part of th is projec t? C ity Manager Sea rs sa id no , it was n't contemplated . Mr . Moo re sa id I mean the success of the project ... it is go ing to be tremendousl y affect ed by tha t. I don 't understand why that is com ing out of the blue . Mayor Wolosyn said I guess I will add that Engle wood has two re pre sen ta t ives on tha t Bo ard , don 't we, the north end and the south end? So, we have a lot of influence and Council should probably put some letters in about how valuable it is . Mr. Moore said I thought it was intended to operate more like a circulator shuttle . Mayor Wolosyn said that's right , it is . City Manager Sears said we just received that today and we had not received any preliminary information about that ... that that was the direction they were going to go . We will do so me follow up and certainly we sh o uld be a part of the discussion or the decision making they have and w here they go . Certainly go ing fro m zero to $1.50 ride is go ing to have a huge impact. We will do the follow up , thank you . 2 . He said in respect to the liquor license issue . I can't wait until November 20 1 h to talk, Olga . Our City government gets a terrible black eye when our citizens feel this ignored, even if the outcome in this thing is right. Obviously, the process is flawed when the citizens don't feel like they are getting a fair shake . Now , what if they are not getting a fair shake in this? Is there any ... and I think I am directing this to Dan ... is there any immediate action we can take w ith respect to this situation? .. Or by the nature of the independence between that Board and ours ? Is there no intervention that we are capable of? City Attorney Brotzman said your only role w ith this Board is to appoint this Board . Englewood City Council September 18, 2006 Page 16 Mr . Moore said okay , let's just assume that this 500 foot issue ... let's just assume for discussion ... that they were flat out wrong . Mr. Brotzman said on that issue? Mr. Moore said yes . City Attorney Brotzman said if it was the measurement issue, that could be overturned and we could take care of that. Council Member Moore said by who? Mr . Brotzman said that actually is through the court process . We would resolve it there . He said again , that is not a Council issue ... that is the court process issue . An appeal from th is goes directly to District Court and the answer is , if it was measured incorrectly ... I have to qualify this, it wasn't. .. but , if it was measured incorrectly we would simply agree that it was measured incorrectly . The problem with this and what Council Member Barrentine has requested ... is looking at a zoning process outside of the liquor code process . The Liquor Code has a very specific methodology of how to measure this . Community Development did that. .. it is over 500 feet. The Liquor Code provides that you can extend that through a zoning process . You can do other things through the zoning process . That is what is coming back to you . What we are going to be giving you , as Council reque . ted , they are plotting all of the liquor stores, GIS wise, so that you can see what those measurements are. Mr . Moore said I am not interested in other law changes right now. Mr . Brotzman said right. Mr . Moore said what I am interested in ... is it a fair process? You have adequately answered that the 500 feet is not measured as the crow flies, so that is fine . Mr. Brotzman said right. But, Mr. Moore said, there are many other issues that • have been raised in this. Mr. Brotzman said and the answer is the appeal from Liquor Board goes directly to District Court . Mr. Moore said who has power to appeal? Mr. Brotzman said any aggrieved party, meaning any of the citizens who were at that hearing can appeal. Mr. Moore said can the City? Mr. Brotzman said if you desire to appeal , yes you could . But the standard , however, is , was the Board arbitrary and capricious in their decision . Mr. Brotzman said that is almost an impossible standard to win . Mr . Moore said that is concerning. We have the ability to appeal if we so desire , as a City , aga inst our own Board . Mr. Brotzman said yes . Mr . Moore said the time frame for doing so? Mr. Brotzman said you would be doing that tonight. Mr. Moore said what is the cost of doing it? We have an issue here. If we have the ability to stop a wrong ... the problem is we haven 't had a chance to evaluate whether or not there is a true wrong here ... but , if acting tonight preserves our ability to evaluate this ... Mr . Brotzman said and you are setting up a very , very unusual process, because what I have to tell you is that if the City appeals ... your having my office on both sides of the law suit. .. because Dugan Comer represents the Board ... so they make a decision that he would have to defend . That is why you have the City Attorney's office representing the Liquor Board . So, you would actually have to hire outside counsel to appeal that. Mr . Brotzman said I would recommend ... Mr. Moore sa id I am not asking for a recommendation yet. This license is permanent. Mr. Brotzman sa id yes . Mr . Moore sa id it goes with the property . Mr. Brotzman sa id no . Mr. Moore said you have to maintain it, but if. .. Mr . Brot zman said no , if they want to transfer it there is actually a process to transfer a liquor lice nse , as wel l ... so they would have to get perm issi on to transfe r. M r. Moore sai d bu t there isn't a renewal ? Mr. Brotzman said as long as this company is there and these owners are there , there are various process ... meaning that you actually have to register the people that work there, the owners have to be the same , you can't change the corporate structure without going to the Liquor Board and getting that authorized again . Mr . Moore said if I were a betting man ... I have an eight year member of the Liquor Licensing Authority over here and has been through the process, diligently participated before ever being on Council. I have numbers being presented by the citizens that are grossly out of whack in terms of against this . I can't fathom how this was the right decision . I am trying to recall. .. we had a closer one , but I had us talk about four or five years ago ... but in that case I think the numbers were at least in the ballpark ... the majority was against it , but at least there was a sign ificant minority. Council Member Barrentine said actually I sat on that one and there were around ... there were under 20 people of came to oppose that license , but the petit ion process was well in the 90 's in favor of it. This one had an oppos ing petition process that showed 43 % .. .first of all , I would like to say that I've been on the Liquor Boa rd , not one time has a survey company been paid and not come back with the majority for what they got pa id for . So the pet ition process ... and I'm not say ing that anybody does anyth ing inappropriate ... but the petition process , like a lot of th ings in life , you get what you pay for . If you send somebody to oppose it , they come back with a n Englewood City Council September 18, 2006 Page 17 oppos iti on . If you send somebody in favor of it , in the e igh t year s I have never seen somebody be paid for a petition and not come back with that their side should have what they wan t. But in that case , you had the surrounding area ... over 90% wanting it and you had maybe about 15 to 18 people who came out in oppos it ion to it. I had only one time ever seen that many people in here and that liquor license was turned down ... it was for over at Girard . There are only three that I have sat on and that's ... the change of corporate structure , those things are rather business procedures, those go through ... you never have anyone show up . The three ti mes we have had people show up, th is was a large number of people with the pe tit ions not over whelming and tha t is why I had the concern that I did . Mr . Moore said do we know if any other parties are filing an appeal? Mr. Brotzman said we have heard that Mr. Tisch is contemplating doing so . I have to tell you though ... arbitrary and capric ious means there was no evidence presented that they could approve the liquor license. Now , you heard there were people there that were in favor of this . Whether you agree or not , the person who gets to dec ide that is actually the Liquor Board . You may disagree whole heartedly with how the process went , but if there was any ev idence presented , the chances of winning are slim to none . Mr . Moore said that is the basis for your advice to let it go . What is our ability to unseat the Board? Mr . Brotzman said you have appointments every year ... that is up to Council. Mr . Moore said the Board membe rs terms are two years , four years? Three years ... do we have to wait until a term is complete? Mr . Brotzman sa id the answer is yes or the only other piece that you have are absences . Mr . Moore said I do hope the audience can appreciate the handcuffs that have been placed on us. Council Membe r Ba rrentine said I would only ask one other question . All the decisions that were made were made based off of needs and desires . Then the City has nothing to do with t ha t c ri teria ? Mr. Brotzman sai d that criteria , no . The criteria tha t you have asked us to look at , which is a zoning issue , which is d istancing ... Ms . Barrentine said no, I am not talk ing about what we are going to do in November. I am talking about what John is talking about right now. That the decision that each of them made was stated that it was made based off of needs and desires . I don 't understand how it has to be capric ious and .... Mr . Brotzman said that is the standard to overturn the Liquor Board. So , if there was any evidence presented to them , they we igh the evidence . A judge will not set aside your citizen appointed panel , unless it was just so erroneous that they couldn 't or shouldn 't have ever found that. That is not weight of evidence, that means no evidence ... there wasn 't anyth ing before them that they could have looked at and said ... the re is a need and des ire . Ms . Barrentine sa id we had a cit iz en that presented a pet iti on process as well , and some of the proces ses weren't handled the same as they had in the pas t. I would go with Joh n. I'm concerned a bou t leavin g a Bo ard in place that is th at-i n-you r-face abou t not listening to peop le ... not hearing them ... leav ing them w it h th at ki nd of impressio n . Mr . Moore said my disgust should be apparent. I hope , if nothing else ... we have two actions that we can take . One of them is to remember this when we are considering reappointments . Second, we can look at changing the law to mandate the space requirements, right? ... through zoning . The third is I would like to , again ... in fairness to the process and accepting my own personal ignorance of all the rules. if Council is on board with this ... I wou ld like to understand this better because right now I have the feeling that this was a flagrant disregard for the way the rules are set up . And I know , it can't be that bad . Maybe in the N ovember 20 1 h session , I would like to understand that there is some scenario where this was fair . Mayor Wolosyn said I think the fact that we are going to address the possibility of changing that, I, myself, wanted to have the whole ordinance structure examined, because we are going to propose changing ... solving a perceived problem by doing this , that unless we understand the whole process , I don't think we are in the position ... so to me, it is part of the discussion . Council Member Moore said and Dan , a lot of that is dictated by State law, right? Attorney Brotzman said yes . we have adopted the State Liquor Code and that is .. Mr. Moore said like the arbitrary capricious standard , we can't change that . that is State . Mr . Brotzman said that is correct. Englewood City Council September 18, 2006 Page 18 Council Member Barrentine said it is my understanding that they will need to look at the Executive Sess ion tape , which is something that the audience and myself are not privileged to, to know what went into the decision making process ... that that tape , if requested , would go to a Judge and they would take a look at that and if there was disregard ... the potential is there for them to make a determination on the instruction, especially given to a new member ... both legal and experience given by other members and for them to decide based on their conversation ... whether they ignored that. .. needs and desires can still play into it , I guess . (iv) Council Member Oakley: 1. He said I too would like to understand the process better. I feel anything we can do in the future , we need to do, but for now , I would defer to Dan 's advice . 2 . He said in regard to Bob's comments about my 501 h wedding anniversary, last night, I would like to say, that we were able to rent the facilities at the Malley Center and the employees were very professional and treated us very nicely . It is a very nice room and I would recommend to anyone in the community that has an affair like that , to keep the Malley Center in mind . 3. He said going back to last week when I was a little passionate about graffiti in our City , I noticed th is week that Denver has put in their budget a special cleanup crew like I had suggested last week . I th ink that Chris had said that he had some things along those lines in mind and I would like to see us pursue that in the future . (v) Council Member Tomasso : 1. He sa id I want to thank the merchants for the wonderful car event they put on and all the effort they put into that. It really made the City look good . Also , all the City staff that contributed to that. I know the City made an extra effort to make that work really well. 2. He sa id we received a report on the number of crimes per motel. What I would like to get now is the number of rooms per motel , so we could get a percentage of wh ich ones are creating the most problems ... based on the number of rooms or clients they have per nigh t. So , the two wou ld make sense and we could try to compare tha t. 3. He said I also not iced the house , whe re we closed the st reet at Bates and Clarkson ... the house they just built ne xt to Bates a nd Clarkson ... was on a 75 foot lo t. They subd ivided the lot into two houses . The fi rst hou se is bui lt and it is listed as $879 ,000 .00 and th ey are about to build a second house on that property . There is also a house four blo cks away that ha s bee n scraped ... the y are d igg ing a new bas ement. I suspect tha t on e will also be about an $879,000 .00 house . So, that is another direction for the City to go .. .for dev elopment. It might not be a duplex at $600,000.00, but it might be a single family house for $600 ,000.00 on a 50 foot lot. They don't all have to be $879 ,000 .00, but $600 ,000 .00 is kind of nice too . (vi) Council Member Woodward : 1. He said I want to congratulate Wayne and Jeannie on their 50 1 h wedding anniversary again . So , congratulations from me too on that. 2. He said the rest I have are kudo type of things . Mike Flaherty, Leigh Ann Hoffhines, Don Ingle and the IT Department have been chosen as a finalist in the City and County Communications and Marketing Association's Savvy Awards competition for the City of Englewood's new web site and I just want to compliment them on that and acknowledge that they have done , obv iously , a great job on that . 3. He said I would also like to acknowledge Rocky Mounta in Urgent Care who ... according to our Council Newsletter ... is providing financial support to youth In-line hockey , basketball and baseball leagues through the Parks and Recreation Commission ... Dave Parks helped put that together . Rocky Mountain Urgent Care is a Englewood City Council September 18, 2006 Page 19 business that has been in Englewood for about two years now and they have been a real supporter of community events and this is just another one of those . So kudos to them 4 . He said then lastly, to City Manager Sears for 35 years of being in the business of City Management. Congratulations! There was applause . Mayor Wolosyn said congratulations Gary. 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 you received correspondence from Trina Everhart from Safety Services regarding the return of our police radios . The conversations and the correspondence have not been fruitful, so I am seeking a motion to pursue suing EF Johnson for return of the funds . Council Member Woodward said I would like to make that motion . Based upon our discussions back when we started having problems with these radios and back then, I think , we had discussed that there were some other communities within the State that also had problems with the same radios . So , absolutely, I think they need to step up and make a refund . COUNCIL MEMBER WOODWARD MOVED, AND IT WAS SECONDED, TO APPROVE TO PURSUE SUING EF JOHNSON FOR RETURN OF THE FUNDS. Motion carried. Ayes : Council Members Barrentine, Mccaslin , Moore , Wolosyn , Woodward , Tomasso , Oakley Nays : None 15 . Adjournment The meeting adjourned at 9 :14 p .m .

Dear Sirs: We are letter carriers and would like to express our views concerning dogs to the City Council of Englewood . Postal regulations do not allow a carrier to enter a yard where there is a loose animal. The topic of dog bites is frequently addressed at our safety meetings. We are constantly told not to pet or feed your dog -because when someone else delivers the mail -he may not treat the dog in the same manner. Dogs are protective animals and they act differently when the owners are not at home. Some routes have up to 100 dogs -so it's hard to distinguish which are friendly and which are not. Our mantra of delivering "through rain , snow, sleet and dark of night" does not include fighting off dogs. I'm sure people have stories about how we overreact when a dog approaches us, but our supervisors threaten discipline when we are bit -and we know a dog was at that delivery point. We are being pushed into a corner, so as letter carriers of Englewood -please restrain your pet.

Olga Wolosyn, Mayor Be COUNCIL COMMUNICATION Date: Agenda Item: Subject: October 2, 2006 9 Ci Resolution approving FY2007 Community Development Block Grant Application Initiated By: Staff Source: Community Development Department Janet Grimmett, Housing Finance Specialist COUNCIL GOAL AND PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION Housing and Community Development Previous Action: City Council has approved resolutions to file Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) applications almost annually since 1977. Participation in the Arapahoe County entitlement program began in 1991. Participation is authorized in three-year increments. Ordinance 13, Series of 2006, approved an Intergovernmental Agreement to participate in the Arapahoe County Community Development Block Grant and HOME Investment Partnership Programs for federal fiscal years 2007 through 2009. RECOMMENDED ACTION Staff recommends that Council approve a Resolution authorizing staff to apply to Arapahoe County for the City of Englewood 's portion of federal fiscal year 2007 Community Development Block Grant (C DBG) funds . BACKGROUND, ANALYSIS, AND ALTERNATIVES IDENTIFIED The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) CDBG Entitlement Program provides grants to units of local government and urban counties to meet housing and community development needs. The objective of the program is to enhance urban communities by providing: • decent, safe, affordable housing; • improved infrastructure; • public facilities and services; • economic opportunities. The F deral Program objec ti ves are achieved through projects developed by local governments that primaril benefit low and moderate income families and other federal objectives. The request for fund~ rndy dlso include activities that meet other urgent development needs in communities such as d mag from flooding. tornadoes, fire , etc . Local governments determine which activities best rve the obj c ti es of the program . Funds are appropriated annually by Congress for the CDBG program and are allocated by statutory formula to each entitlement area. Arapahoe County is an approved entitlement area. The grant funds are currently distributed to participating cities within Arapahoe County based on each jurisdiction's poverty population as identified from the latest census information. The current participating jurisdictions are the Cities of Englewood, Littleton, Sheridan, Glendale, Deer Trail, and Greenwood Village plus unincorporated Arapahoe County. The funding level for the City of Englewood for FY2007 is anticipated to be $150,000, the same as it has been for the past four years. An additional non-jurisdictional pool of funds of approximately $300,000 is also available directly from Arapahoe County for projects that benefit persons living in any part of the county. The City of Englewood must submit an application no later than October 16, 2006 in order to receive its portion of the 2007 CDBG funding from Arapahoe County. The application will be for a total of $150,000. Englewood's FY2007 program consists of same three projects that were approved for FY2006 CDBG funds. These three projects continue to meet current housing and neighborhood needs. All projects are subject to additional review by City staff, Arapahoe County CDBG administrators and the County Commissioners. The listed projects and funding levels may change based on those reviews. FY2007 CDBG funds will be requested for the following projects: 1) $70,000 for the Housing Rehabilitation Project to provide loans to low-income homeowners to finance the costs of major household repairs and improvements. This Project also includes a handyman/small rehab component to assist seniors and disabled persons with minor household repairs ; 2) $55,000 for a neighborhood revitalization "paint-up/fix-up" project designed to improve the streetscape appearance of low-income owner-occupied residential properties within the City; 3) $25,000 for a seventh-year request to assist with staffing needs for the House of Hope homeless shelter. FINANCIAL IMPACT Existing Community Development staff will administer the proposed projects. Staff salaries and benefits represent the City's partici pation in the projects. LIST OF ATTACHMENTS Resolution l RESOLUTION NO. SERIES OF 2006 RESOLUTION BY THE CITY OF ENGLEWOOD AUTHORIZING THE CITY OF ENGLEWOOD, COLORADO, TO FILE AN APPLICATION WITH ARAPAHOE COUNTY FOR A 2007 COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT BLOCK GRANT. WHEREAS, the Englewood City Council has approved CDBG applications since 1977 and approved the execution of an Intergovernmental Agreement with the passage of Ordinance No. 37, Series of 1991, covering the City's participation in the Arapahoe County CDBG Entitlement Program for funding years 1992 through 1994; and WHEREAS, the Englewood City Council approved passage of Ordinance No . 13 , Series of 2006, authorizing the execution of an Intergovernmental Agreement between the City of Englewood and Arapahoe County covering participation in the Arapahoe County CDBG Entitlement Program for funding years 2007 through 2009; and WHEREAS, the Arapahoe County Community Development Block Grant Program provides gr~ts to participating municipalities to meet housing and community development needs; and WHEREAS , to compete in the Arapahoe County Community Development Block Grant Program, local governments must submit an application; and WHEREAS , the City of Englewood has received a notice of fund availability; and WHEREAS , the City of Englewood, Colorado, desires to apply for these funds through the Arapahoe County 2007 Community Development Block Grant to fund the Housing Rehabilitation Program, House of Hope staffing and neighborhood revitaliz.ation projects .

ADOPTED AND APPROVED this 2nd day of October, 2006 . ATTEST: Ol ga Wolosyn, Mayor Loucrishia A . Ellis, City C lerk I, Loucrishia A. Ellis, City Clerk for the City of En glewood, Colorado, hereby certify the above is a true copy of Resolution No . __ , Series of 2006 . Loucrishia A. Ellis, City Clerk I COUNCIL COMMUNICATION Date: Agenda Item: Subject: October 2, 2006 11 a i Intergovernmental Agreement with CDOT for Bridge over the Platte River at the Englewood Golf Course Initiated By: Staff Source: Department of Public Works Rick Kahm, Director COUNCIL GOAL AND PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION • Council approved Resolution No. 79, Series 2003, authorizing the City to apply for Federal funds under the lntermodal Surface Transportation Efficiency Act (ISTEA). • Council approved Resolution No. 77 , Series 2005 , authorizing the City to apply for Federal funds under the "Safe Accountable Flexible Efficient Transportation Equity A c t-Legacy for Users". • Staff discussed the status of the project at the August 14th Council Study Session. RECOMMENDED ACTION Staff recommends Coun ci l approval of a Bill for an Ordinance to enter into an agreement w ith the Colorado Department of Transportation . The agreement c ov ers financial commitments related to the design and c onstruction of "Platte River Bridge at Englewood Golf Course." BACKGROUND, ANALYSIS, AND ALTERNATIVES IDENTIFIED Th e exis ting brid ge over the Pl atte Rive r was b uilt by En glewood to c onnect the front and back nine h o les of o ur G o lf C ourse. Su b se quentl y, it has serve d as a c ro ss-over c onn ection for the Mary Cart er Gree nway. Th is has ca us ed confli c ts b etween p edes t ria ns , b icycles, and go lf carts. Th is proposed project will install a new struc ture south of the existing bridge to separa te golf course patrons from the Platte River Trail System . The Denver Regional Council of Governments (DRCOG) accepts applications from local governments, typically on a two year cycle, for projects to be considered for federal funding. DRCOG, in cooperation with the Colorado Department of Transportation (CDOT), is charged with preparation of the Transportation Improvement Program (T IP). The TIP priori tizes regio nal p rojec ts for Federal Transportation Funds available through the "Safe Accountable Flexib le Efficient Transportation Equity Act-Legacy for Users" (SAFTEA-LU). Congress adopted this program in August, 2005 to replace the former Transportation Efficiency Act of the 21st Century (TEA-21 ). Englewood first applied for this "Enhancement" project in 2003 and , with Council's concurrence, we reapplied in 2005 . Based on our application and certification that local matching funds are ailable, DRCOG accepted the project earlier this year and included it in the TIP. Metro-wide, -------- only eight Enhancement projects were selected for funding through 2010 with Englewood receiving two of the eight (see attached list). As shown in the attachment, federal funds for Enhancement projects are very limited in FY 2007 ($429,000). DRCOG has challenged cities with a competition for the available federal dollars. Money for the selected projects will be allocated based on the order that COOT agreements are approved by local agencies. Staff worked closely with CDOT Region 6 and requested they expedite the preparation of our agreement. The turnaround time for Region 6 was seven weeks, beating their typical time frame of about twelve weeks. Based on statements made by other local government representatives, our main competition is from Golden and Boulder. The other project sponsors anticipated waiting until FY 2008 to begin their projects. Staff is hopeful that our projects will be funded for design in FY 2007 and construction in FY 2008. COOT will not encumber more money than is available in 2007. The Contract Encumbrance in this Agreement is for the design portion only. The Agreement contains a "Funding Letter" provision that CDOT will use to increase the dollar amount for the construction phase as funds become available in FY 2008. CDOT and DRCOG also require that the design be substantially complete before construction funds are encumbered. This process reduces the likelihood that federal dollars would be encumbered by a project sponsor and not spent within a reasonable period of time. Please note: Corrected outline letters are not substantive changes. FINANCIAL IMPACT The total estimated cost for the project is $724,000 as detailed below: Design Construction . ta l Fiscal Year 2007 2008 Federal Share (80%) $103,200 $476.000 $579,200 Local Share (20%) $25,800 $119.000 $144,800 Total $129,000 $595,000 $724,000 Per the proposed Development Agreement related to the Sheridan development, the entire Local Share of $144,800 will be provided by Miller/Weingarten. Englewood applied for this project in 2003 and certified that matching funds would be available before discussions with Miller/Weingarten began. Should the Development Agreement not be approved, staff will request a supplemental appropriation from the PIF in the amount of $144,800.

". Therefore, local agencies must comply with this CFR requirement and the following state procedures when obtaining professional consultant services under a federally funded consultant contract administered by CDOT. CDOT has formulated its procedures in Procedural Directive (P .D.) 400 .1 and the related operations guidebook titled "Obtaining Professional Consultant Services". This directive and guidebook incorporate requirements from both Federal and State regulations, i.e ., 23 CFR 172 and Colorado Revised Statute (C .R.S .) 24 -30-1401 et seq. Copies of the directive and the guidebook may be obtained upon request from CDOT's Agreements and Consultant Management Unit. [Local agencies should have their own written procedures on file for each method of procurement that addresses the items in 23 CFR 172 .5(b)(l-6)). Because the procedures and laws described in the Procedural Directive and the guidebook are quite lengthy, the subsequent steps serve as a short-hand guide to CDOT procedures that a local agency must follow in obtaining professional consultant services . This guidance follows the format of 23 CFR 172. The steps are : 1. The contracting local agency shall document the need for obtaining professional services . 2 . Prior to solicitation for consultant serv ic es, the contract ing local agency shall develop a detailed scope of work and a list of evaluation factors and their relative importance . The evaluation factors are those identified in C.R.S. 24 -30-1403. Also, a detailed cost estimate should be prepared for use during negotiations . 3 . The contracting agency must advertise for contracts in conformity with the requirements ofC.R .S. 24-30-1405 . The public notice period, when such notice is required, is a minimum of 15 days prior to the selection of the three most qualified firms and the advertising should be done in one or more daily newspapers of general circulation. 4 . The request for consultant services should include the scope of work, the evaluation factors and their relative importance , the method of payment, and the goal of ten percent ( 10%) Disadvantaged Business Enterprise (DBE) partici pation as a minimum for the project. 5. The anal ys is and sel ection of the c onsultants should be done in accordance with C .R.S . 24-3 0-1403 . This section of th e r egulation identifie s the criteria to b e used in the evaluation ofCDOT pre-qualifi ed prime consul tants an d their team. It also shows which criteria are used to short-list and to make a fi nal selection. The short-list is based on the following evaluation factors : a . Qualifications, b . Ap proach to the project, c . Ab ility to furn is h professi onal services . d . Antici pated design conce pts, an d e . Alternative me thod s of approach fo r furnis hing the professiona l services . Eval uation factors for final se lection are the consultant's : a . Abilities of their personnel, b . Past performance, c . Willingness to meet the time and budget requirement, d . Location, Exhibit H -Page 1 of 2 Exhibit H e. Current and projected work load, f . Volume of p reviously awarded contracts, and g. Involvement of minority consultants . Under 24-30-1401. cost shall not be considered as a factor in the evaluation of professional consultant services. 6 . Once a consultant is selected, the local agency enters into negotiations with the consultant to obtain a fair and reasonable price for the anticipated work. Pre-negotiation audits are prepared for contracts expected to be greater than $50,000. Federal reimbursement for costs are limited to those costs allowable under the cost principles of 48 CFR 31 . Fixed fees (profit) are determined with consideration given to size, complexity, duration, and degree of risk involved in the work. Profit is in the range of six ( 6) to fifteen ( 15) percent of the total direct and indirect costs. 7. A qualified local agency employee shall be responsible and in charge of the project to ensure that the work being pursued is complete, accurate, and consistent with the terms, conditions, and specifications of the contract. At the end of project, the local agency prepares a performance evaluation (a COOT form is available) on the consultant. 8. Each of the steps listed above is to be documented in accordance with the provisions of 49 CFR 18.42 , which provide for records to be kept at least three (3) years from the date that the local agency submits its final expenditure report. Records of projects under litigation shall be kept at least three (3) years after the case has been settled. The C.R.S. 24-30-1401 through 24-30-1408, 23 CFR Part 172, and P .D . 400.1, provide additional details for complying with the eight (8) ste ps just d iscussed.

COUNCIL COMMUNICATION Date: Agenda Item: Subject: J October 2, 2006 11 a ii Intergovernmental Agreement with COOT for Bridge over the Platte River at Dartmouth Avenue Initiated By: Staff Source: Department of Public Works Rick Kahm, Director COUNCIL GOAL AND PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION • Council approved Resolution No. 77, Series 2005, authorizing the City to apply for Federal funds under the "Safe Accountable Flexible Efficient Transportation Equity Act-Legacy for Users". • Staff discussed the status of the project at the August 14th Council Study Session . RECOMMENDED ACTION Staff recommends Council approve a Bill for an Ordinance to enter into an agreement with the Colorado Department of Transportation. The agreement covers financial commitments related to the design and construction of "Platte River Bridge at Dartmouth Avenue." BACKGROUND, ANALYSIS, AND ALTERNATIVES IDENTIFIED Currently, the connection between the Little Dry Creek Trail and the Mary Carter Greenway Trail requires bicycles and pedestrians to cross the Platte River on the Dartmouth Avenue Bridge . This bridge has narrow sidewalks, and there is a history of accidents and conflicts between motor vehicles and trail users . This proposed project will install a new structure south of the existing bridge for the exclusive use of trail users . The Denver Regional Council of Governments (DRCOG) accep ts applications from local governments, typically on a two year cycle, for projects to be considered for federal funding. DRCOG, in cooperation with the Colorado Department of Transportation (CDOT), is charged with preparation of the Transportation Improvement Program (TIP). The TIP prioritizes regional projects for Federal Transportation Funds available through the "Safe Accountable Flexible Efficient Transportation Equity Act-Legacy for Users " (SAFTEA-LU). Congress adopted this program in August, 2005 to replace the former Transportation Efficiency Act of th e 21 •1 Cen tu ry (TEA-21 ). Englewood applied for this "Enhancement" project in 2005. DRCOG scores projects based on a number of factors including safety, connectivity, usage, and cost-effectiveness . Additional points are gi en if a c ommunity offers additional local matching funds above the required 20%. Community Deve lo pm nt staff re co mmend d o ermatching the proj ct to increac;e the C'han ce of heing el c ted . DRCOG ac pted the project rlier this year and included it in the TIP . Metro-wide, o nl eight Enh nc m nt pr oj c t w ere sel ted for funding through 2010 with Englewood re c ei ing - two of the eight (see attached list). As shown in the attachment, federal funds for Enhancement projects are very limited in FY 2007 ($429,000). DRCOG has challenged cities with a competition for the available federal dollars. Money for selected projects will be allocated based on the order that COOT agreements are approved by local agencies. Staff worked closely with COOT Region 6 and requested they expedite preparation of our agreement. The turnaround time for Region 6 was seven weeks, beating their typical time frame of about 12 weeks. Based on statements made by other local government representatives, our main competition is from Golden and Boulder. The other project sponsors anticipated waiting until FY 2008 to begin their projects. Staff is hopeful that our projects will be funded for design in FY 2007 and construction in FY 2008. It is possible that DRCOG will only fund the design of one of our projects in FY 2007. DRCOG encourages projects that are overmatching to proceed with design using 100% local funds . The local funds spent on the design phase will be credited to the overmatch for the construction phase . COOT will not encumber more money than is available in 2007. The Contract Encumbrance in this Agreement is for the design portion only and does not account for the overmatching local funds (see table in Financial Impact below). The Agreement contains a "Funding Letter" provision that COOT will use to increase the dollar amount for the construction phase as funds become available in FY 2008. COOT and DRCOG also require that the design be substantially complete before construction funds are encumbered. This process reduces the likelihood that federal dollars would be encumbered by a project sponsor and not spent within a reasonable period of time. Please note: Corrected outline letters are not substantive changes. FINANCIAL IMPACT The total estimated cost for the project is $670,000 as detailed below: Fiscal Year 2007 2008 Federal (80%) Local (20%) Overmatch Design Constru ction Total $ 73,000 $362.000 $435 ,000 $ 18,2 50 $ 90.500 $108,75 0 $31 ,75 0 $94,500 $126,25 0 To1fil $123 ,000 $547,000 $670,000 The total Local Matching Funds for the design phase in FY 2007 is $50,000 (Loca l 20% plus Overmatch). The t o tal Local Matching Funds for the constru c tion phas e is $185,000 (Local 20% plus Overmatch). $40,000 is available in Open Space Fund . An additional $83,000 from the Open Space Fund is requested as part of the Proposed 2007 Budget.

This directive and guidebook incorporate requirements from both Federal and State regulations, i.e ., 23 CFR 172 and Colorado Revised Statute (C.R.S .) 24-30-1401 et seq. Copies of the directive and the guidebook may be obtained upon request from CDOT's Agreements and Consultant Management Unit. [Local agencies should have their own written procedures on file for each method of procurement that addresses the items in 23 CFR 172.5(b){l-6)]. Because the procedures and laws described in the Procedural Directive and the guidebook are quite lengthy, the subsequent steps serve as a short-hand guide to COOT procedures that a local agency must foJlow in obtaining professional consultant services . This guidance foJlows the format of 23 CFR 172. The steps are : 1. The contracting local agency shaJI document the need for obtaining professional services. 2. Prior to sol icitation for consultant services , the contracting local agency shall develop a detailed scope of work and a list of evaluation factors and their relative importance . The evaluation factors are those identified in C.R.S . 24-30-1403 . Also , a detailed cost estimate should be prepared for use during negotiations . 3. The contracting agency must advertise for contracts in conformity with the requirements ofC.R.S . 24 -30-1405 . The public notice period, when such notice is required, is a minimum of 15 days prior to the selection of the three most qualified firms and the advertising should be done in one or more daily newspapers of general circulation. 4 . The request for consultant services should include the scope of work, the evaluation factors and th eir relative importance , the method of payment, and the goal of ten percent ( 10%) Disadvantaged Business Enterprise (DBE) participation as a minimum for the project. 5. The analysis and selec tion o f the consultants should b e done in acc ordance with C .R.S . 24 -30-1403. This secti on of the regulation identifies the criteria to b e use d in the evaluation ofCDOT p re-qualified prime consultants and their team. It also shows which criteria are used to short-list and to make a final selection. The short-list is based on the foJlowing evaluation factors : a . Qualifications, b . Approach to the project, c. Ability to fu rn is h professional services . d . Anticipated design concepts, and e . Alternative methods of approach for furnishing the professional services . Evaluation factors for final selection are the consultant's: a . Abilities of their personnel , b . Past performance, c . Willingness to meet the time and budget requirement, d . Location, Exhibit H -Page 1 of 2 Exhibit H e. Current and projected work load, f. Volume of previously awarded contracts, and g. Involvement of minority consultants. Under 24-30-1401, cost shall not be considered as a factor In the evaluation of professional consultant services. 6. Once a consultant is selected, the local agency enters into negotiations with the consultant to obtain a fair and reasonable price for the anticipated work. Pre-negotiation audits are prepared for contracts expected to be greater than $50,000. Federal reimbursement for costs are limited to those costs allowable under the cost principles of 48 CFR 31. Fixed fees (profit) are determined with consideration given to size, complexity, duration, and degree of risk involved in the work. Profit is in the range of six (6) to fifteen (15) percent of the total direct and indirect costs. 7 . A qualified local agency employee shall be responsible and in charge of the project to ensure that the work being pursued is complete, accurate, and consistent with the terms, conditions, and specifications of the contract. At the end of project, the local agency prepares a performance evaluation ( a COOT form is available) on the consultant. 8. Each of the steps listed above is to be documented in accordance with the provisions of 49 CFR 18.42, which provide for records to be kept at least three (3) years from the date that the local agency submits its final expenditure report. Records of projects under litigation shall be kept at least three (3) years after the case has been settled. The C.R.S . 24-30-1401 through 24-30-1408, 23 CFR Part 172, and P .D . 400.1, provide additional details for complying with the eight (8) steps just discussed .

Loucrishia A. Ellis D ( COUNCIL COMMUNICATION Date: Agenda Item: Subject: October 2, 2006 11 Ci Contract for Professional Services - Golf Course Environmental Consulting Initiated By: Staff Source: Public Works Department Rick Kahm, Director COUNCIL GOAL AND PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION Council approved Ordinance No. 28, Series 2006, approving a Property Lease Agreement with the Sheridan Redevelopment Agency. RECOMMENDED ACTION Staff recommends that Council approve, by Motion, a contract with Major Environmental Services, Inc., in the amount of $264,000, for environmental monitoring and consulting services related to the reconstruction of the Golf Course and redevelopment of associated property. BACKGROUND, ANALYSIS, AND ALTERNATIVES IDENTIFIED Environmental oversight of construction activities for the Sheridan Redevelopment Project and for the reconstruction of the Englewood Golf Course is critical. Although Miller/Weingarten is responsible for all the construction related activities, the City of Englewood is considered the "generator" of any hazardous materials in the landfill . The City will always be responsible for any hazardous materials that leav e the site . Major Environmental will monitor excavated landfill material and assure that any loads that leave the site are properl y manifested . The Colorado Department of Health issued a "Voluntary Cleanup Plan " (VCUP i for the project. Two separate permits were issued by the State, one for the Golf Course reconstruction, and one for the retail de velopment. Approximately 54 acres of th e retail deve lopment is loca ted on City of Englewood land leased to Miller/Weingarten. Major Environme ntal wi ll monitor construction activities performed by th e developer's contractors to assure compliance with both VCUP's. Based on the developer's proposed construction schedule, Major Environmental Services will need to be on site approximately twenty hours per day, seven days per week, for a six month period. FINANCIAL IMPACT Funding for the environmental oversight is allocated as part of the $650,000 paid by Miller Weingarten. The funds were set aside for a pump station, environmental consu ltants, wetlands remediation and fencing along the eastern perimeter of the project.
