7. Recognition of Unscheduled Public Comment
(a) Scoutmaster Ken Maetzold said I want to give tribute to one of the greatest organizations our
country has, which is the Boy Scouts of America. I have been privileged to be the Scoutmasler of this Troop for
fifty years . I'm retired now, but I'm kind of their mentor and they gave me a Scoutmaster Emeritus patch, which I
wear with great pride. So, I am really glad to be here tonight and we honor the Boy Scouts all over this City, this
State and this Country and we live for values that we know we will always uphold. We have Eagle Scouts that
represent the Boy Scouts of America faithfully for the rest of their lives. They give honor to our Country, give
honor to our God and that is kind of what we arc about. But while we arc doing all that, we have an awful l.ot of fun.
Our Troop has kind of gotten known as the adventure ... high adventure ... Troop of the Denver Arca Council,
because we arc all over the mountains, and we're paddling canoes in Canada. That is partly what holds the Boy
Scouts together and especially our Troop. It was a very rewarding experience for me to be the Scoutmaster for all
those years. I am glad to be here tonight with you. Thank you all. There was applause.
(b) Scoutmaster Kevin Koalcnz said I would like to stan off by thanking the City Council for your
suppon of our Boy Scout Troop. In the process that a boy goes through in the rank development and the
achievements in scouting, he must provide a leadership project. And more than once, the City of Englewood has
provided us an opponunity to provide that service to you through one of our boys. Tonight wc arc here in suppon of
a very special boy in our Troop. Alan Carrick, would you stand up please? Alan put together a service project for
the City of Englewood and it was very successful ... helping you with your Parks and Recreation ... refurbishing the
signs, rebuilding picnic benches and saving the City quite a bit of money by reusing materials and our free
manpower. He provided the leadership for this. Some people might say ... well it is just another Eagle project, but
Alan has turned 18, which is the limit when you can work on Eagle and he had finished his project prior to that so he
is on his way to being an Eagle Scout. But Alan is a pretty special character to us. He has been in our Troop since
he was eleven years old. I have watched him grow from a very small young man with a lot of smiles and a lot of
vigor and now he is 18 and looking forward to his Eagle rank. Cystic fibrosis has noc tept Alan from doing all the
things that a lot of people might not have been able to accomplish. He has worked through that and I wanted to
make everybody aware of that tonight. He spends week after week in Children's Hospital under treatment for this
disabling disease. I don't know how long Alan will live on this planet, but I can tell you right now, as Scoutmaster,
that I am glad to work with this young man and glad that he has affected this community and glad that he will be an
Eagle Scout. I wanted to come here tonight and thank you all for letting him have that project and get that
accomplished. So Alan, good job and thank you very much. I am sure the City of Englewood appreciates all your
cffons as well . There was applause.
(c) Alice Hanna said I am vice-president of a non-profit organization named Englewood Unleashed,
which many of yo u know. We just wanted to kind of give you an update ... some exciting thing~ have happened . We
finally got our notification from the IRS on March I" that we arc a full-fledged tax exempt organization. which was
effective actually in July 2004. With that we wanted to let you know that we have raised approximately $2,500.00
and that was while we were waiting for that tax exemption. We really want to go forward with the fund raising
process. but we really think it is crucial t~at we know where the off leash park will be before wc can really push for
that fund ra isi ng . A lot of people want to know where it will be. If we go to business sponsors such as Petco, I llunk
that is going to be one of their first questions ... where is this park going to be? So, wc really encourage City Council
to work with us and the staff in creating a dog park. Thank you. There was applause.
(d ) G . L. West said I got a letter from Larry Nimmo about my concrete. Like I said before, about 25
years ago they had a o ne assessment deal 10 the adjoining propcny for street repairs. which I paid . It took me ten
years to pay it, but I got it paid . And now they want me to pay for concrete that is sunken in and it is broke apin. It
is a piece that I paid for before. Your water truck pulls up on the sidewalk, loads up 16.000 pounds of water ow of
my hydranr o n the corner and you guy want me to pay for it .. I was tcllina Larry Nimmo aboul it and be said why
don't you call Englewood. I said who do I call...you? Mr. Nimmo said no, I'm the wrona departmcnl. I said that i
the same an wer you get when you call E nglewood. Anyway. after I left bis office, I wclll down and measured the
wheel base o n the water truck that has been parking on my sidewalk . It i 19 feet and you can ao from the sunun
concrete 10 the broken piece of concrete and it is 19 feet . And on top of that, IOlllpl I was waldlina lhal suect
s weeper coming around and where the concrete is sunk III thae. 11 drops it's dut lhae ... doan't cw:n pick it up.
Anyway. I thml 111 about 11me Englewood paid for some of that, as l'w: &tJC several auys that remcmbCf it. He sud

in the letter it said that I had to get a permit. Well , three years ago in January, I got a permit and I hired an
Englewood contractor who had a permit ... let me put it that way. He started the end of January and said it would be
a six day job. April 12111 he got a factory rep out there to show him how to do the job. In the middle of June that
year, I came down to talk to the City Manager, who was gone, but there was a woman there that said she was an
Assistant City Manager. Anyway I told her what my problem was and she called over Lance Smith who between
the two of them sat there and they told me, just down right said, there is nothing they can do about it. They can't
even force somebody to buy a permit. What have you got ... double standards? I'm not quite sure what is going on
here. Anyway, I think it is about time for you guys to start paying for some of the damage that your employees do.
And you can look right across on Bates Avenue where that grader has tore that concrete up and I mean literally tore
it up. And that's why you had to form the concrete deal, I am surc ... to help replace that. He said I think when they
passed this new concrete deal, they ignored it, they thought people arc old enough and they either had moved, died
or something and just passed it without regard to the people that paid that bill. South of me on Ogden, not one
person paid. East and west on Bates, nobody paid. Cornell never paid, Emerson never paid. Now here you want
me to pay again.
Mayor Garrett said in respect to the concrete issue, if you could talk to this gentleman, Mr. Kahm, who is the
Director of Public Works, he can help you identify the damage that may have been done by the water truck. So, if
you could talk with him ... if you could step outside and get at least a name and number, he can contact you and work
with you on that.
Council Member Bradshaw said thank you for bring ing it to our attention.
(e) Yvonne Steers said I am here as a concerned citizen of Arapahoe Acres and this is concerning a
house at 2931 South Franklin. The house is owned by the Parks and Recreation Department and the City of
Englewood. I was out walking today and I noticed there was a dumpster in the driveway and went and looked at the
house and they arc replacing some of the windows. Arapahoe Acres is a historic propcrty ... pal't of the National
Register. The windows that they arc putting in arc not appropriate architecturally for the house . So I decided to call
the City today and complain about this and sec what we could do. Our neighborhood is working very hard to
educate owners on the original features and doing sensitive remodels. What I would like to sec .. .I would like to
have this project stopped tonight and further work on this house stopped and have a meeting to establish: (1) origiMI
features, (2) what needs replacing and how to do it. (3) restoring the unique fascia and beam projections on this
house, and (4) working with the color that would be appropriate for Arapahoe Acres. Like I said. we arc on the
National Register, yet the City is not doing their part to help preserve this propcny. The house was given to the City
and also has been receiving rent for many years, so there should be no problem with coming up with the money to
restore it properly. Thank you.
(f) Diane Wray Tomasso said I own a propcny at 3058 South Cornell Circle in Arapahoe Acres and I
would like to speak in support of my fellow home owners comments here this evening. We were able to meet with
Mr. Black in the lobby in front of City Council tonight and he has told us that he is going to immediately speak with
Public Works or whoever is in charge ... or the Housing, I think ... whoever is in charge of managing the rehab work
th:it they are undertaking over there with the idea that it is going to be stopped. We did advise him that it is not only
a National , but a State and an Englewood landmark district and the City, I think, is very well aware that there is an
active homeowners group in that neighborhood and yet Parks and Recreation did nothing to reach out to that
community group and discuss this with them before they started thi s major exterior rehab. So, Mr . Black has agreed
that it is appropriate that the project be stopped. However, we did want to stay and tallc with you tonight 10 make
sure that that follows through from the top down. Thank you for your time.
(g ) Dave Steers said I am also from Arapahoe Acres and I would just briefly like to say that any
damage to the integrity of an individual home damages the integrity of the entire neighborhood . I would really hope
that we can work towards replacing windows with windows that are architecturally appropriate to the homes in the
neighborhood. The windows that arc presently going in are double hung windows that arc in no other house in the
neighborhood originally. Thank you very much.
(h) Brian Verbeck said I am a resident of Englewood and owner o f Mile High Coffee at 871
Englewood Parkway. He said I would like to address the Council on issues of zoning . W ith our wonderful mixed
use development some o f the zoning things that we have in place now need to evolve with this development.

Currently, the City has very specific zoning, which is exactly what zoning is about. There is zoning for residential,
commercial, industrial and so on, but with the introduction of a mixed use development that needs to evolve so it is
kind of a hybrid between the groups . There arc perfect examples currently in the Denver area, there is Stapleton,
which is ten times the size but along the same lines, Lowry Town development and even LoDo . There arc a hand
full of things that have changed there, so they've changed a few things. With my research, I found a very specific
town center called Abacoa Town Center. It is actually located just outside of Jupiter, in Aorida. It is very similar.
It has retail, food and bars with residential above it. It actually has an amphitheater run by the City ... quite similar to
what we have here . It even has a little transit piece ... a trolley. Not quite as historic as ours, but still along the same
lines. So. with residents and retail mixing together, their perceived conflicts and currently, again, the zoning
ordinances arc written for one or the other, but don't necessarily address issues that both may have. If l can read a
small, little piece of what I found about Abacoa Town Center, it is more a literary piece of kind of what we created
here. ''Towns arc where you live, work and play. They have substance and they arc forever. They hold memories
and snapshots of joy and sorrow. Towns arc the culmination of many different neighborhoods and they arc defined
by the main street and town centcr.(Very similar to what we have here at City Center) Main Street is where it all
comes to life ... the festivals, the shops, the movies, restaurants and galleries, the outdoor concerts. It is dynamic . It
is vibrant and acts as a host to the community. It hosts events and celebrations and it is where you go to tell stories,
to shop, to recreate and to celebrate. And it becomes and stays forever ... the focus of attention. It is the Town
Center." He said so here with the City Center Englewood, l would ask that we address a few of those things as the
City evolves and brings us more of this type of de velopment and that we change the docket and the zoning to make
it appropriate. That may prevent issues later on. It's just a normal part of the evolution of development. Thanks.
(i) Greg Kaincr, 4443 South Acoma, said I am President of Englewood Unleashed . My dad was a
Scoutmaster so I grew up in that environment so I admire the work that you do, but that is not why I came here
tonight . I would like to bring into focus, so that it is crystal clear, the whole picture of events that led up to the
decision to fund the water study for the off-leash dog park at Belleview. There was a Task Force appointed and it
established criteria after extensive evaluation for selecting park land here in Englewood . Centennial Park was
selected initially through a process that basically was an elimination of two other locations and was without
extensive debate . Centennial later bccarnc cost prohibitive due to environmental remediation. Englewood
Unleashed met with the City. We discussed what the community really wanted ... safety and grass ... safety being the
number one issue. Through the selection process the numbers just didn't pan out for Centennial . It was expensive
and from a rational standpoint, it just didn't seem like money well spent if the community wasn't going to use it and
it was going to be expensive. So Englewood Unleashed forwarded a proposal using the Task Force criteria and the
selection process came back to Belleview Park. Englewood Unleashed made a very concerted attempt over the
holidays. two or three months ago. to contact each and every member of the City Council to discuss the proposal
that we had forwarded . Most City Council members responded and some didn't. Some didn't e'1en return our
phone calls which I question ... why?. since, I think. we put maybe 100 hours into this proposal . And, not to have
phone calls returned or not to even consider the work put into it. was a little disheartening to the community. I don't
think that the dog owners are any less of a taxpayer or a park user than say the Boy Scouts or the Soccer
Association . Which reminds me , the Soccer Association has been very accommodating to us ... they understand our
needs. We share Jason Park with them and we have found a way to get along with each other and we found that it is
a very accommodating process, but l guess I just wanted to make it clear as to how the Belleview Park selection
came about . I just wonder why it just appears to go back into a loop after Belleview was the compromise park and
the locati on that we are talking about was the location that they were talking about, although Council initially voted
and misunderstood the location and they fessed up . It has been a long and hard process . We have been at this for
almost a year. So, I just hope that you really think about all the community work that has gone into this because,
yo u know. the Task Force arc volunteers and they arc members of the community. If these were paid consultants
there would be a pretty good bill for all the hours that have been put into this and to bounce it uound. It is really
taxing on the ci tizens and I think we have really acted in good faith . I think every agency and department that we've
worked with. with the City, has realized that thi s has been a very civilized and diplomatic proces.~ that we have been
involved in. And. I appreciate the City for that . Thank you. There was applause .

community of Englewood.
Mayor Garrett asked if there were any comments.
Council Member Wolosyn said I would like to make a comment on Agenda Item 8 (a} regarding Ms. Nabholz'
letter. KEB does not have a mandate for e-mail. Yes, the group does communicate by e-mail to save paper, but it is
always understood and followed up with phone calls to those who do not have it. I wish Ms. Nabholz well in her
future endeavors.
Council Member Bradshaw said, regarding Agenda Item 8 (d), Louis Parkinson was the Municipal Judge and was
quite the character for many, many, many years to those of us who knew him. I remember I was on Council in the
SO's and at our budget retreat we would always end up at opposite ends of the spectrum on the budget and he would
always storm out threatening us with contempt of court. But, he provided a great service for Englewood. There
wasn't a cause that he didn't really believe in, that he didn 't back 100 per cent He was very instrumental in getting
the Golf Course put in . So, the court system we have today was a lot of hard work from Carolyne Boettger and Lou
Parkinson .
Mayor Garrett asked if there were any more comments. There were none .

recall, we began working with Bass in micro-surfacing in 1991. We went nationally to develop a system that mixed
aggregate asphalt and an application to assure us a quality product. As compared to standard slurry programs, on a
national basis, slurry products arc intended to last approximately seven years ... a seven year rotation. This micro-
surfacing that we have done all these years has given us almost two and one-half times that performance. So, we
have been getting really good quality for our dollars. Bass has actually worked with us for the last 14 years on
micro-surfacing and 3 years prior to that on slurry. During that time, they have placed 152 miles of thar product.
Micro-surfacing is specialized in that it is a product that deals with chemistry. All these years we have used a gray
granite product for our aggregate that comes from asphalt paving up in Golden. It is an extremely hard aggregate
with the hardness of about 16 so that would mean the only aggregate in the State that would be harder than that is
probably a diamond if you could find one in Colorado. It is a very hard aggregate. Over the years. we used
emulsion that was actually custom produced for us, initially in Vicksbcrg, Mississippi and later Waco, Texas. And,
it was very special to us because the mixture of that aggregate and that emulsion gave us what was considered by the
International Slurry Servicing Association, as the second best micro-surfacing product in the world . The key to this
was that the asphalt, the crude stock was coming out of Venezuela and we had very good luck all these years and we
were very happy . About three years ago there was an oil strike in Venezuela and ERGON, for an extended period of
time, wasn't able to get that product. We don't sec much ofERGON in this part of the country, but they arc very
big in the south and southeast. They were having problems with base crude so they went out and bought a company
called Lyon Oil and so now they own their own oil company. So starting two years ago, they began blending the
Venezuelan crude that they could get with their own product. We noticed the difference on our streets and that the
product wasn't as black and we were a little bit concerned, but Jong term their products seemed to be okay ... by Fall
it looked as good as any other product that we had ever put down. As we went into this last year, noticeably, we had
situations like on Logan where vehicles , as they stopped at the intersection at Hampden, picked up a little bit of
product. That is the first time we had ever seen that happen in our history ... going back to 1987. So, we became
concerned and then realized that ERGON was using more and more of their Lyon Oil and less and less of the
Venezuelan crude. This last year we went back to the drawing board. We were really proud of the product that we
had developed over the years and we went back to the drawing board and worked with Bass. They found us a plant
in Port Allen, Louisiana ... right across the river from Baton Rouge. It is a small family owned operation that has
been in business for about 20 years and they do produce about 3 million gallons of emulsion a year and they could
get us a base stock from Saudi ... a mid-cast product. It is a blend of Arab heavy, Arab medium and Maya crudc ... it
is 85 per cent of that product. The other 15 per cent ... these arc proprietary products where .. .it is like Coke, they
won't tell you what the actual composition is, but they manufactured some asphalt for us . We have sent 40 tons of
rock to Arkansas . The Street Superintendent, Del Montgomery, went to Arkansas and we laid that product ne~t to
the product that ERGON has been supplying us these last two years and this new product was far superior. So, I did
want to tell you that we arc changing the chemistry. because we arc going with a different emulsion ... we arc going
to a better emulsion again . I also wanted to talk to you briefly. because I was hoping to come to a Study Session, but
there wasn't time . But not too many weeks ago , we met with Congresswoman Diana DcGette and talked about
transportarion and I specified at that point that I was concerned, because we have three miles of South Broadway
thal is now· our maintenance responsibility . And , I was concerned that I don't think the Federal pool of grant money
is going to be as available as it has been in the past. After that, I was talking with Del Montgomery, Street
Superintendent, and he became really co ncerned about the quality of our roadway on Broadway right now . The
north section, which runs from Yale dow n to Hampden, was only built in the year 2000. It was a State project with
Federal participation . Bur, we are seeing quite a bit of rutting starting to develop on that and the aggregate is
starting to polish, which means we arc starting to lose surface aggregates . We believe that to protect the City,
because roro -milling and overlaying Sourh Broadway for three mile:. could cost us 3 million dollars. And with the
s ucce ss that we have had with micro-surfacing , what we arc proposing to do this year is to go out on Broadway and
put a micro-surface on it from Yale all the way to Hampden full width . The beauty of micro-surfacin1 is ... ! gave
you some drawings in your packets. but. .. what it allows us to do is that it allows us to go in and in the travel lanes .
we can pull a ten foot path in each travel Jane. which will fill the minor rutting and we will put down about 16
pour.ds of material per square yard . Typically. we put down about 20 pounds per square yard on residential
streets ... so we will put 16 down . Then we will tum around and come back in a later pus and we will go all the way
across the street , so we will do the parking lanes as well as the left turn lane. with about anochcr 18 pounds . What
that allows us to do is put a wearing course and a seal in the left turn lane and in the parlr.ina Janes but they arc
lighter, they arc only 18 pounds, because we don't need that much material and it allows us to put over 30 pounds in
the travel Jane where we need the extra material. So we arc proposin1 to do that . The other thing tha1 we arc
proposing to do is then go from Hampden on down to Tufts . Because of budaet constraints, what we would do there
is we would take a rut box and we would fill the ruts. because the rutting is much more severe in that area . We

would fill the ruts and then we would come back and we would pull about 16 pounds per square yard in a 10 foot
path, again in the travel lanes. We would leave it that way this year and that would take up a big piece of our
budget. Then next year I would come back and would propose that we would go gutter to gutter on that section of
the street and we would extend on from Tufts down to the City limit line on the south end. I have talked to Littleton
about our South Broadway Plan and when we get to the south end a.nd Charlie Boston said Littleton will participate,
and I think they will take Broadway on down to Littleton Boulevard and do the same thing. They will work with us
next year.

(ii) Assistant City Manager Flaherty presented a recommendation from the City Manager's
Office to approve, by motion , an agreement with the Museum of Outdoor Arts authorizing the placement of artwork
for MOA's 2005 Design and Build program. He said I am requesting approval of an agreement with the Museum of
Outdoor Arts for the fifth year of the Design and Build exhibit. As you know, we have an agreement with MOA
that covers their art exhibits in this building and on CityCenter ... that goes back to the 1999 original agreement.
Each year for the Design and Build, they extend their exhibits beyond the CityCcnter area into other City owned
properties in the general area of the downtown and this year is no exception to that. There are four sites outside of
the CityCenter area where MOA plans to place exhibits that are constructed by high schools that have Design and
Build competition. This basically addresses issues such as installation, maintenance and insurance liability issues
for this particular exhibit. The exhibit will be installed beginning April 6"' and the exhibit will run through May 18"'
and all exhibits will be removed by May 25,i,. There is an opening reception on April 21" that Council will receive
invitations to . The packet that MOA included in your packet includes all of the locations, the schools involved and
other information including some diagrams and sketches of the art work . They have actual models of each of these,
as well as those pieces that will be placed in other locations outside of Englewood. So if you are interested, you go
into the back area of the Museum of Outdoor Arts, you can sec those models. He asked if there were any questions.

(a) Mayor's Choice
Mayor Garrett did not have any matters to bring before Council.
(b) Council Members' Choice
(i) Council Member Tomasso said, having received some of the phone calls this evening
about the double hung windows in Arapahoe Acres, I would like to add my support 10 my weekend neighbors about
upholding the standards of the Historic District and maintaining the building. I feel it is a continuation ... with
absentee landlords and their insensitivity to the neighborhoods in which they have properties and that it is an area
that needs to be addressed. I highly recommend that the City stop any progress on the conslnletion on this house
and adhere to all standards that the neighborhood believes should be held to.
(ii) Council Member Wolosyn said it sounds like Jerrell did really jump on that and I thank
you Jerrell for being so responsive lo the Arapahoe Acres issue.
(iii) Council Member Bradshaw said I noticed that we got this Positively Englewood Golf
Tournament information and I love the name. Lauren, I just had a couple of questions. The inception of this just
came out of ... is it ari off-shoot of KEB? I was just confused about that. Ms. Barrentine said no. Ms . Bradshaw said
is it independent then of KEB? Ms. Barrentine said the reason that kind of got tied together was because the idea of
it was ... and as the minutes reflect ... that I said that we wouldn't be interfering because they were involved in ..... Ms.
Bradshaw said because you were thinking of doing one anyway. Ms. Barrentine said, actually. I got the idea when
they'said they would prefer not to do it ... not focus on this issue . And then I thought, well hey, if I could put
together a group that would be interested in that ... then would that be okay with you guys? And that is when I
originally started that idea . Two weeks later I had 15 people and presented that and that is where we have gotten
with that. One of the things that was available that had already been started ... they gave me that idea also ... was that
the Golf Tournament was something that they specifically came to Council and said they were not going to do . Ms .
Bradshaw said I missed that meeting . Ms . Barrentine said I'm sorry and well we already kind of had a fund raiser
and I got people together . Ms . Bradshaw said so just put them together. So this isn 't in anyway a political action
committee? Ms . Barrentine said no, not unless raising money for scholarship programs for disadvantaged
Englewood youth is anyway political. .. okay ii could be I guess . Ms . Bradshaw said no, I didn't know. Someone
called and said, do you know that is a political action committee and I just wanted to ask you . Ms . Barrentine said
wow, then we would have a lot more money . Ms . Bradshaw said don't you have a lot more money? Ms. Barrentine
said well we 've already got $1,000.00 committed and we 've got 15 people. And, since you brought it up, I will let
you know what we kind of wrote up here to answer your question . She said "It is our intent to be a uniquely
enhancing spirit , rai si ng fund s for Englewood community projeclS . Some of the ideas that have been raised by
people who have come 10 join this for future consideration are Parks and Recrution programs, adopt a garden, the
annual parade. reinstating the Library's Bookmobile, planting the Broadway median. tent talks, neighborhood
National Night Out , Inter-Faith Task Force Prosrarns and House of Hope ." And, obviously there is a great need for
an organizatio n hkc thi s when people are wanting to partner with the community and partner with the City to bring
in some of the se fund s and so me of thi s excitement and energy to have some of these things happen . Ms. Bradshaw
sa id I just wa nted that cleared up . thanks. Ms. Barrentine said this is a fund raising event by the members of

Positively Englewood in partnership with the City, for the purpose of establishing a scholarship program allowing
disadvantaged Englewood Youth { 18 and younger) to participate in the Englewood Parks and Recreation
Department programs, events and activities who would be unable to for financial or other mitigating factors as
determined by Jerrell Black, Director of Englewood Parks and Recreation Department.
(iv) Council Member Moore said I would like to echo the comments and would like to make
s ure that we are being a homeowner that is respectful of the iw.,ighborhood where we are in, so I would like to find
out what happens . It sounds like Jerrell is already jumping on the Arapahoe Acres issue, but I would like to hear
back . And again I support that we need to be making sure that we are very conscious of the neighborhood where we
are property owners.
(v) Council Member Barrentine:
1. She said I was asked to bring this forward . I asked Dan Brotzman, our City Attorney, for guidance. This
has never been done before. A request was made that if thi s group is going to ask to use the logo and working with
the Parks and Recreation Department. that we write up a statement as to what we were raising the funds for, where
that money would be going and who has control of that and I have fulfilled that. And I wanted to get a vote on that.
I was asked to bring it to you and I did .
Mayor Garrett said you would be willing to do an accounting, after the fact. so that we would know how much
money actually was raised for the program? Ms. Barrentine said Jerrell are you willing to do that? Mr. Black said
absolutely. it is public information.
Mayor Garrett said you will be collecting the money. Council Member Barrentine said no, we won 't be handling the
money. That was specifically a requirement that the group wanted, was that no one person. individual, handle that,
that the City was able to maintain control of that. Also, to have an accounting of anything that is spent on the City
side. so that those funds would come out of there as well ... you know with an accounting and mectin& with the
group, so that we weren't putting funds into his coffers. but using so much of his ~tuff that it didn't make any
money ... so yes. I'm okay with that .
Council Member Wolosyn said so is staff going to be sort of administratina this event then? Will staff be the
administrator of this event? Ms. Barrentine said no, we have a Chair for the Golf Tournament already and no, we
are working in partnership with them to do the event, just like they would do with any other poup . Ms. Wolosyn
said I just wanted to clarify that. Ms. Barrentine said Ann Nabholz already had swu,d it under KEB , so I used the
same structure. There are several other directors that had worked on it, several other Chairs that are coming in as
well to Co-Chair this. Their names were given on the list last time.
Council Member Woodward said one last question. The Golf Tournament will be held at the Englewood Golf
Course? M s . Barrentine said yes . Mr. Woodward said okay . Ms . Barrentine said and we have a tentative date of a
Monday in June. She said and I'm sorry. I had it written down, but not on this stuff that I have here . We have a
tentarivc date. bur I don'r have it wi ch me right now .
Ms . Wo losyn said I assume yo u will have rhe same structure as KEB did . They will be charged also. right.just as
KEB was ? Ms. Barrenline said yes . Mr . Black said from the audience that it was Monday. June n•. Ms .
Barrenline said we ha ve a good partnershi p with a good group of people . Some of the business owners, people like
Jo n Cook ha ve brought millions o f dollars of investmenl into this community. Paula Sparacino. we've aot Jim
Higday ... a former Council member, as well as Ann Nabholz . We 've aot IS people committed to this in a very short
period of rime and I am ve ry excired abour some of the projects we can hopefully take on in the future if this is
successful.
Council Member Barrentine said I didn'r ask for this. so I am kind of confused. I'm jus t askina for the opportunity
to do rhe fund raiser. wo rk with the Parks a nd Recreati o n Department and use the City logo. M . Wolo&yn sud I
actually th ink whar yo u are aski ng for is to use the Ci ty logo. You can have as many fund raisers as you want ... you
don ·, need o ur permission for a fund raiser .

issue of auto theft throughout the Denver Metro area, has become increasingly more severe. Last year in Englewood
alone, there were 457 auto thefts and we haven't started this year much better. It is almost a daily occurrence. What
the Task Force is designed to do, is through participation of as many agencies that can muster the personnel and
resources to participate, it puts a cadre of individuals available to work as a group throughout the Metro area based
on need . For example, if Englewood has a particular auto theft problem developing, we will have one detective
assigned to the Task Force. We call upon the other Task Force members, they come out and assist us and work this
group or work the suspects or whatever that we may identify, in an effort to try to stem this problem of auto thefts.
The Memorandum of Understanding is a requirement that just allows us to participate legally and reap the benefits
of some of the monies that are available. This is funded through the auto insurance industry ... up to $8,100.00 a year
in overtime reimbursement per agent. .. or in this case it would be one detective.
Mayor Garrett asked if there were any questions.
Council Member Woodward said I just want to make one comment and that would be that as I recall from a
meeting ... a Neighborhood Block Captains meeting at the end of last year, when I believe it was Detective Fox that
did a presentation ... he had pointed out that Englewood had the eighth largest amount of car thefts in the S~te. So.
we certainly aren't the eighth largest city in the State. And basically with that, I certainly would support this.
COUNCIL MEMBER WOODWARD MOVED, AND IT WAS SECONDED, TO APPROVE AGENDA
ITEM lJ (a) (i) • COUNCIL BILL NO. 4.
COUNCIL BILL NO. 4 , INTRODUCED BY COUNCIL MEMBER WOODWARD
A BILL FOR AN ORDINANCE AUTHORlZING AN INTERGOVERNMENTAL AGREEMENT ENrITLED:
"MEMORANDUM OF UNDERSTANDING" RELATING TO THE DENVER METRO AUTO THEFT TEAM
BETWEEN THE PARTICIPATING LAW ENFORCEMENT AGENCIES AND THE CITY OF ENGLEWOOD,
COLORADO TO COMBAT AUTO THEFTS AND VEHICLE INSURANCE FRAUD IN THE DENVER METRO
AREA.
Mayor Garrett asked if there was any discussion.
Mayor Garrett said I do have one item on the discussion side. A friend of mine, unfortunately, had her vehicle
stolen in Englewood. It was run down, but the sister police departments across thc was, did not notify her when it
was recovered. When she recovered it from another agency, she picked it up and it had paraphcmalia that she was
very uncomfortable with. in her vehicle. At that point. she was able to call the detective here in Englewood who met
her at the Safety Services building and was able to remove certain items. So. we were very grateful that at least our
P o li ce Department is taking the respons ibility of helping someone take some contrabllnd from a vehicle.
Council Member Tomasso said we would second that. It happened to my wife in recovering the car and finding a
funny w hite powder in 11 and needles a nd 45 caliber ho ll ow points . They had recovered the gun and I guess the
quantity of drugs when they caught the s uspect. but it still cost S I 15 .00 to get it back from the other Police
Department a s they had impounded it .
Cou nci l Member Wolo yn sa id I guess the ques tion is, do these sorts of partnerships address issues like that?
C hief Vanderrnee said yes. working as a team. I mean, we currently have nine detectives. Those detectives
handle ... we have 200 active cases right now. We don·t have the resources or the personnel 10 address the auto lheft
iss ue like it deserve to be addressed . This basically creates thi s Task Force environment so that those resoun:cs are
available if we identify a targeted group of individuals. We now have an investigative group that can agressively
attack thi s problem. The have decoy cars. They have all the resources, the equipm:m and the personnel thal we
need .

(ii) Senior Planner Graham presented a recommendation from the Community Development
De partment to adopt a bill for an ordinance pertaining to Private Activity Bonds for homeownership programs. He
s:1id the Metro Mayors Caucus has approached Englewood and asked whether we would be interested in
participating in a mortgage bond program , that al so provides down payment assistance to low and moderate income
ho usehold s. Thi s year th ey ha,e offered to provide this program to Englewood residents without our allocating
priva te ac tivity bond to their program . although the y certainly would enco urage that also. More than three years
ago, we panicipated in a Metro Mayors Caucus Program to provide this . They didn 't run their program for a couple
of the la st two years and th ey have had loans repaid . So, the mone y that is available now is , in part, recycled money
th at Englewood has co ntributed in the past to the Metro Mayors Caucus Program. More recently, for the last three
years. the City ha s panicipated in CHFA, a single family mortgage program. We have typically made that decision
in mid -s ummer before the September deadline. We would make the recommendation this evening that wc hold off
on the allocation o f the Private Activity Bond, but move forward to take advantage of providing these programs to
Englewood re si dents th ro ugh the Metro Mayors Caucus.
Mayor Garrett asked if there were any questions for Mr . Graham . There were none.

people th at atte nd ed . The o nl y th ing th ey fai led to prov ide was a mi crophone, so it made the people who were

3. She said two weeks ago the Keep Englewood Beautiful Commission came to City Council and asked that
they change the scope of their focus and what their Board would do . Tiley had participated in a lot of fund raising
efforts previously and wanted to change their focus and eliminate all but one of those events and not participate in
anything. I asked at that time if I could put together a group of people that we wouldn't be, in anyway, interfering
with any projects that they might be doing. They said that that would be fine . So I have formed another committee
that is totally separate from Keep Englewood Beautiful. This is just a separate deal. This is a fund raising
committee . I talked to Jerrell Black with the Recreation Department and also talked to Gary Sears and let him know
that Jerrell has agreed to provide us with a staff liaison. I always enjoy the opportunity anytime I can talk to a lot of
people in the community. One of the things that really brought this home was the opportunity that Michael Munds
brought here in raising money for the tsunami victims . And in a very short period of time, as a high school student
in this community, raised over $5,000.00. My son and I had a lot of fun participating in that. We worked on tbe
previous race . I have seen this community really come forward and participate and enjoy this community. But
maybe with a little bit of focus and a little bit different leadership, we could get a viable group of people who would
be willing to parti c ipate in events and raise money for this community again. So, I starteci calling people and I have
a group and would like to let you know who is on the Committee so far, that is Ann Nabholz, David Brereton, Jackie
Edwards, Reggie Macl.aren, Dorothy Martinez, Jon Cook, Robyn Vanderleest, Jim Higday, Doug Cohn, Anna
Marie Kratzer, Paula Sparacino and Daryl Estes . And then I have some commitment for some part-time work from
some other people. Unfortunately, I have only had two weeks so far, so we arc trying to get a group together. If
there are any people who would like to be involved in this , please feel free to contact me. Fortunately, there has
been an event that has gone on for the last thirteen years that Keep Englewood Beautiful decided not to do and that
is o ur golf tournament. So, that would be the first fund raiser that we are going to go ahead and pursue since that
was already started. Like I said, if anybody is interested.just let me know . Also, we already have a commitment of
$1,000.00. So like I said, if anybody is interested, please contact me and we will have some fun raising some money
for some worthwhile events. Thank you.
(ii) Council Member Bradshaw said I had a phone call from Gabriel Allen today and she is
with the American Cancer Society. They arc looking at doing ... it is not a race for the cure, but it is a cancer walk.
It is a 48 hour celebration for the survivors of cancer ... all types of cancer. It looks like they will be h~ing that at
Belleview Park on August 201h and 21" with Jerrell Black and Dave Lee's help. So,"! will get more information, but
s he would like to come and talk to Council at a future Study Session. So, I directed her to call Sue Bradshaw and
have Sue set that up . Ms. Bradshaw said there were some issues ... they were trying to get the High School, but they
were turned down. I think this will be a real worthwhile event and Lois Hjclmslead, one of our citizens who is a
well known author of books on cancer survivors will be the guest speaker at the event It is an overnight team event,
it will last 48 ho urs . because cancer doesn't quit over night. It is really powerful. Mayor Garrett said how docs that
impact a neighborhood , if it is going all night? Ms. Bradshaw said that is Dave· Lee's issue and he is working on it.
(i ii ) Council Member Woodward:
I. H e said I also anended the Neighborhood Watch Block Captains meeting and I would like to also thank
Detective Schellpfeffer and also want to acknowledge L:iureu for standing up and sharing her experience at that
meeting .
2 . He said Tom mentioned to me toni ght that E nglewood Schools had turned in their funds for the tsunami
relief a nd they had raised almost $6,000 .00. So, congratulations to them and the group at the High School who
headed th a t up .
(iv) Co unci l Member Wo losyn:
I . She said the E nglewood Schools Annual Art Show will be held on March 1Q"I' from 4 to 6 p.m. They work
wuh the Library a nd han g c hildren 's llr1 from across the community all over the Library. l encourage everybody, if
yo u can 't go to the opening. to visit that in the next month . I'm really not sure of the length of time the an will be
displayed.
2 . he said March IO'b . I think Thursday through Saturday. 1s the Library's Book Sale which is always a p-eat

3 . She said I would also like to thank Lauren for goi ng ahead with this non-profi t committee. As I understand
ii. thi s money wi ll go towa rd s th e same programs that KEB has . Ms. Barre ntine said that has not yet been decided
by this committee. I just said that we were not associated with Keep Englewood Beautiful anymore and that thi s
was a separate fund rai si ng commiuee. I will leave that up to them to decide and we haven 't had a chance to meet
yet Ms. Wolosyn said okay, I misunderstood. I would like to say that the members of KEB are very hard working
and they did no t d ec ide to dro p their work. They decided to refocus on a new fund raiser, not on new projects to
which they are dedicated . Two years ago they all worked on the 2002 Comprehensive Plan and just like every other
commission that is associated with the Comp Plan ... a segment of it . For instance ACE and the business
secti o n ... they are going to look at it and try to come up with an implementation plan. I think that is one of the really
exciting things th at we can do when we participate on the Commission level. .. the advisory level. .. is look at how to
impleme nt these very ambitious and visionary plans that we all help make. I just wanted to make sure to note that I
think the members of KEB arc hard working and I appreciate what they do for the Commission and the community.
M s Barrentine sa id I want to clarify that I in no way disparaged any of the work they did. As a matter of fact, I
thought I gave due respect to the fact that they decided to take another course and left an opening, an availability for
something else to happen here , so I never disparaged any of their work . I am not criticizing their change in direction
either.
13. City Manager's Report
(a) Ci ty Mana ge r Sears said I have included. in the Council packet this evening, a report that I had
asked Public Safety Director C hri s Olson to put together. He has some additional attachments in that report and it is
in response to the Uni on allorney that was here at the las t meeting two weeks ago, where he expressed a concern of
the officers in th e Po li ce Division regarding no confidence for the work of Chris Olson. In that presentation, there
were three items he identified. One being the 800 megahertz radio system, the second one being the computer
assisted dis patc h and basically dead spots within the system ... cspccially with the use of the mobile laptop
computers ... and third . the lack of police uniformed service bureau staffing, to make up the 36 police personnel on a
continual bas is. I ha ve reviewed the report Chris put together. I think that I have confidence in both Chris' work
and the work of the command staff. I think that certainly these items arc very important and serious to the safety of
o ur police officers and to th e safety of the public. so I appreciate, again. the work that was done by Chris and his
s taff in addressing these issues . I could go into detail on the specifics. but I guess I just have a couple of general
comments and then if Co uncil has questions of me. I will try to respond to the questions or Chris is here and he can
respond or direct his staff to respond . But primarily. I know the radio system has been a concern. I know that it has
been worked at fo r quite awhi le ... the 800 rnc gahcnz radio system. And I know that due to Chris' efforts and his
s taff. we were able to garner federal funds to pay for thi s very expensive system. I know it has been on order, but
again. with Federa l Ho meland Security funding. there arc a lo t of issues associated with getting that here and dealing
with the firs t respo nder types of funding . I don 't know, as Chris alludes to, whether it will solve the problems, but it
certai nl y is an upgrade that has been looked at and I appreciate the fact that the issue was raised and that wc arc
continuing to work toward the implementation with Trina Everhart . Secondly I think that Chris has identified the
issue with the dead spots. I don ·t quite understand all the details there, but I know that both Chris and Trina can
respond 10 th ose and I think that these are i sues. In my 34 years of experience with five different cities throughout
Colorado. that there has always been some difficulty with handheld radios and I think they arc a concern of Police
Department,. Plus. as \\C implement and move toward better mforrnat1on technology. as the Council h as seen in the
past . we are ho ping that th1 integration "111 make things happen . I am pleased with the work of C hris and Trina 10
tr) to put together a S)Stcm. under Jeff Sanchez' and Dick Petau's leadership, to try to integrate their ystcm into our
informauo n technoloin \ e put a lot of money into that and I think it is absolutely critical that we continue to work
to ward re lvin g those I ue . The third issue that wa identified by Mr. Bruno at the rnccung was the FTE
allocauon . l think . again . Jo!ln Col hn has h ted good inforrnau n about that. I know certainly the Command Staff,
fr o m Chris. to Tom. to Jeff and to the sergeant that they have struggled with o ur budgetary hortfall over the last
couple of years. And )Cl. I kn o "' for a fact. because I am in touch with them o n a daily ba i . that the safety of our
oflicers in ha \lng adequ te manpower for s11 ua11ons . 1 at the forefront . I know the Council has certai n ly made that
a point • t o ur hudge1;ir) ;..: ,o n, and there have been several meeting where Chris and his Command Staff have
cuher aslcd lur. N put ha,l o n. certain po 11,ons . But \loC , hle every other community in the mctrO area. have gone
thwugh wmc d11!1 uh 11mc, o ,cr the la t ~ouple of >Car And, pcrhap me of our officers, \\oho arc looking at

and formalling the Police Division Administrative Policy Manual. And according to this , I believe that to be the
case . The Police Benefit Association Executive Board has been an active part of this process. Again, I want to
e nco urage them to s tay invo lved. Secondly, I have asked Chris to work with the Chief Officers throughout the State
o f Co lo rado to wo rk through an accreditat ion process that I think is important for this community to have and for the
Po lice Divi s io n to have and I think that is well und ~r way . So again , I just wanted to summarize what I think Chris
has presented to me and I have provided a cover lettc:. I will be happy to respond to any questions or concerns that
C o uncil may have or if they would like to have further information from Chris ... that would be fine also.
Council Member Barrentine said I wanted to know if you were provided with the other 23 issues? City Manager
Sears said I was not. I was not given those 23. Ms. Barrentine said I wasn 't either, so I didn't know if they had
been presented in any form. Mr. Sears said my understanding was that Chris may have taken a look at those , but I
did not ask for those and I guess my feeling was that I wanted to stay with the formal information that was presented
that e vening. I'm receptive to taking a look at those but, you know, I jus t want to say that there are concerns
th ro ug ho ut th e o rganizatio n with other departments and that is an ongoing situation when you have over 500
emplo yees and a $36 million budget. Ms. Barrentine said I am only going from the comments he made that night,
that he was goin g to prov ide that, that is not up to Chris to provide somebody else complaints or to present them, but
I didn 't kno w whether they had followed through on that ... and if they haven 't, that is fine. Mr. Scars said sure, I
was never pro vided that. They never made contact with me nor presented those. Thank you .
Counc il Member Bradshaw said Chris did you receive those? Director Olson said they never formally presented
them to us . It took a lot of wrangling from within the organization to even try to find out what they were. So that is
why I ne ver presented them to Mr. Sears, because they just did not come to me in a formal process. It was
something they s at on. They didn 't mention them that night , other than supposedly there was another list out
th ere ... but I've seen it. The form it was presented in ... ! would be a little embarrassed to present it to you, because it
wa s n't very well written. It was a compilation of, apparently, individual complaints from a variety of people. A lot
o f it was based o n a pretty high degree of lack of knowledge and information as to what is really going on. So, I
d o n 't think it is a document that would be something formally presented to you. Again, it was not formally
. presented to us either, internally.
Mayo r Garrett said are there any other questions by Council?
Coun cil Member Woodward said my question would be , do we have any idea when the 800 megahertz radios will
be in o perati o n'! Direc to r Olson said I do have Trina Everhart here who is my Research and Technology Manager
and s he has been wo , king direc tl y with thi s . Would it be all right to have her come up for a couple of minutes to
ex plain that? It is a very in vo lved process. He said while she is coming up, if I could intcrjcct ... the current system
th at we a re o n, a very hi gh frequenc y system. has been in use in Englewood for probably 40-50 years . Now, of
co urse . we are alway, cons ta ntl y upg radin g it. but that s ystem ,s not something that will just disappear. We arc
go ing to keep that sys tem as a bac k-up system . And I j ust fo und o ut today that Boulder is not going to 800
mega hen z . T hey are keepi ng their V HF sys te m fo r their po lic e department there. because it works much better in
that enviro nme nt tha n th e ~00 wi ll .
"Research and Tec hn o lo g y Manager Everhart said the 800's ... my understanding is that the final approval of the
contrac t was supposed to ta ke pl ace today. This is the lat est wo rd that I have from Motorola, who is the vendor.
Afte r tha t eq uip me nt a rr ives here ... I a m ho pin g that will be within the ne~t 3 -4 wccks ... it will go to Arapahoe
County S heriff. T here are fo ur id e ntified e nt ities that program the radios for the 800 system. They are one of them
and the cl oses t. We ha e a n a g reement wi th them . They will be pro grammed and while that is being done. the

is a more direct line of sight system. So there are some other interference factors. For instance, Chris alluded to
issues in Boulder. They won't be switchi ng to the 800 because of their terrain. The other issue that comes up with
the 800 is what they call ·make busy'. That is whal you experience on your cell phone when you go 10 make a call
and the circuits are busy. Some of !he repeater siles, from time to time, will overload and there will be that second
where you can't gel on th e radio. Those are the two issues with the 800 that we see. One of the benefits of the 800
is that it is being built out 'throughout the State, we have inter-operability with the majority of the State entities. You
can also have an o fficer travel outside o ur jurisdiction and have coverage as far as Grand Junction, Montrose or
down in the so uthern part of the State. So those arc the benefits. It certainly is a step forward in the radio
technology.
Council Member Barrentine said how many communities already have this system in place? Ms. Everhart said I
believe, the last I heard, there are 168 entities within the State that have the 800 State system that we will be joining.
Ms. Barrentine said that you will be joining ... so they already have them working? Ms. Everhart said yes.
Mayor Garrett said are there any questions?
Council Member Barrentine said is thal in conjunction with the Homeland Security in order to get everybody on the
same thing so that they can communicate with each other? Was that why it was started? Ms. Everhart said the State
system started prior to 9/11 . The Homeland Security grant that we were fortunate to get to pay for the First
Responder, came out of the 9/ l l . One of the priori1ics for that, they call it UASI Communication Committee, was to
get all the Firs! Responders in the State 10 street coverage level of the 800's for inoperability.
Council Member Wolosyn said lhis is probably just the same, bul there was an article in the Denver Post a couple of
months ago, about how all of the rad.io systems in the State arc having trouble meshing. With this one, will we have
1he most coverage with other municipalities that we could of any? Ms. Everhart said yes, this system that we arc
going to Join ... the State 800 System ... has the largest membership, if you will. Denver operates on what they call a
MaCom sys1em and so docs Aurora. Th ose are two of the largest that arc not on the system, but the majority of the
Stale are on the what they call the CCNC State sys1em. But, Ms. Wolosyn said, can we communicate with our
radios with lhe two of them? Ms. Everhart said no , they are different. They arc different entities. There is
techno logy that we are all working on. that would tie those systems together. Denver has been pretty successful
wilh testing a system like that, so it is in the very near future that the different systems would be tied together in a
different manner. M s. Wolosyn said thank you.
Council Member Woodward said I have a question regarding the MOT's and those logging off. You say that the
users d o not Jog out of th e computer properly, which causes the unit to lock up . ls there some way that it can be set
up so that can be avoided? Where they have to log out or that the information can be saved? And I am asking that
queslion as I participated in a ride-alo ng back in Oc1ober or November and the officer I was with experienced that.
believe that 1s whal happened with hi s computer. It locked up and later in the evening he had to input all the
information 1ha1 he had input up lo 1ha1 point. It sounds like whal you are sayi ng here is that it is a user error in
Jo gg in g o ut o r 1f the vehicle 1s shut down, the compu1cr shuts down . Is there a way that we can back that up or have
a ba c kup baue ry power so that type of thing doesn't happen? Ms. Everhart said there are three issues that occur.
The is s ue that I believe you are referring to. where 1hey so meti mes lose data, is actually due to a software package
that 1hey use to type their reports. The MOT's were upgraded about two years ago. They have more memory, but in
o rder to address tha1 situation what we are doing is periodically we go o ut and clear the memory of those units so
that doesn't occur or al least wilh less frequency. The other issue that we experienced wilh not logging oul properly
is. c urrently. we are not running o n the bauery from the car. Once the car is shut down, the MOT's power is down.
Thi s issue is go ing to be addressed wi1h th e new vehicles . With some of the power saving devices that arc going to
be used o n 1he new vehicles coming in. this shou ldn't be an issue and what we can do is set the MDT's so that they
will run fo r a penod o f time and no 1 just shut down . So. if the officer needs to exit the vehicle . 11 won't be s hut
do " n. And the third 1s JU St a user error. The officers arc busy and sometimes don 't ha ve the time to log out
pro perl y and that will Joc k II up . In trying to addre s that as well , we arc goi ng to be providing MDT training. We
ha\'e ne " officer, and a re fr e her for el'eryone is always a good opuon as well . We are trying to address those
1 ,ues so 1hat the o ffi ·er, can con ·entrale on what the need to do on the street...not having to worry about their

Counci l Member Barrentine said that is the system that allows them to go ahead and do their reports on the
computer system in their vehicle'? Ms. Everhart said currently they can type their reports in the vehicle. We are
mo ving towards o btaining and implementing field reporting, then the problem of losing data is miniscule. It saves it
to the MDT while it's also transmiuing it back to a server. And so, it even double checks itself, that it has received
everything before it eliminates anything on the hardware. So, we are moving towards the actual wireless field
reporting for the officers. Ms. Barrentine said do you know how many other police departments have that? Ms.
Everhart said I can 't give you a number off the top of my head. Ms. Barrentine said I did a ride-along with Littleton
and they are very jealo us of us that we have that capability, so I was just wondering. Littleton is a little bit bigger
ci 1y. Ms . Everhart said a lot of agencies do , but I couldn'I give you a number. Ms. Barrentine said all right, thanks.
Counci l Member Woodward said I think, like most technology, it is great when it is working. Ms . Everhart said like
any machine.
Direclor Olson said jusl so me additional information. I appreciale Mr. Sears thanking me for gelling this money
fr o m Homeland Security for this 800 megahertz. but quite honestly, it was Manager Everhart that did the vast bulk
of all the detailed leg work and the really significant cooperation with Denver and 23 other jurisdictions around us to
get us up on to p of the pri o rit y li st to get this funding . So, a lot of the congratulations should go to her for this. IL is
an unending task . but again I appreciate her comments that she just made to you right now.
Mayor Garren said thank you very much. Ms . Everhart said thank you .
Mayo r Garren said are there a ny o ther questions for City Manager Sears?
Coun ci l Member Woodward said I guess I just have one question regarding police morale right now. Where do we
see it and how can we. as a Council, assist if need be, in promoting better morale if that is a problem?
Directo r Olson said I wo uld like to make a comment on that. Identifying morale, how to measure it, and what to do
abou1 i1, is an ongoin g, forever, problem. Generally there is 100 per cent morale when you get a pay raise, when you
get some new toys, when you get an a ssignment you really like, when you get a promotion ... then you arc really up
!here . But 10 measure morale is always something difficult. I always go back and say, morale is almost an
individual 1ype of a siluation. And I wo uld say from a Council perspective, what you should look at ... if you stan
seeing a d egradatio n of ser vices out there. that is when I want to know about it and I want my command staff to
know abou1 ii . because then we know we have a s ignificant morale problem. If you still feel like you arc getting
good se rvice and the ci 1i ze ns seem to be happy with that, then I would say morale is okay and then it goes back to
01 her issues, which hopefully the officers will address with us intcrnally ... such as pay, assignments, special
assignments and jus t a variety of things like that. But the bottom line factor is what arc they doing for the
community and are th ey doing i1 appropriatel y a nd in the fas hion that we expect. .. that is the measurement.
Ci 1y Manager Sear~ said I think Chns addressed that from his side. I don't know if there is a magic wand out there.
Ccrlain ly I think 1hey have expressed fru s1ra1io n and concerns , especially lo take a vote. I d o n't know if I really
have an answer fo r whe re"" are al. I think s 1ruc1urally. the City Council basically puts their responsi bili ty on to the
C u. Manager. II is in a public environ ment here, we are in a public setting. so it is a little different say than a
·urporauo n where you ca n I.ind of deal with th ings on a more informa l basts. You know also within the structure,
"e ·, e gm command people who are there and you know turnover is going to be an issue that is going to happen .
Plus. we do have three bargaming units with differenl attorneys and different ways of looking at things. I wish there
"ere o ne answer IO thal and I know that is not probably where you arc at. I think that, certainly, having an
orgJmzat,on that li s 1ens to th e tnd1 vtdual s and tries to put that tnt o a format within the public setting fish bowl, is
probably reall) o ne of 1he o nly things yo u can do.
Coun.:,1 kmbcr \ olo yn said th, ,s a mall thing, but I feel tha1 I have to say it. When we talk about if monlc
JnJ perform:ui.:e a re related .. in the last couple of \\CC"5 there was a small ... a very small thing ... a garage door was
open in the hou,e ne,t 10 ~ and the man acr the lrcct rcponcd n. M y hu band is supposed to be watclung the

service is good and impressive, so I think it is great when we all can keep our performance up, even though we have
other issues . I just wanted to say that.
City Manager Scars said if I can add to that. I think we 've got a very highly responsive organization, whether it is
the Council requests, which all of our department heads get back to Council. .. we never put any off. We r~,5pond no
matter where they are. I think we have an open organization at the top level. We've got hard working, detailed,
focused employees ... fire and police especially ... put their life on the line . It is not to say that utility workers that are
out there are not in a tough position or our street workers that do a good job. So, I think organizationally it is a very
complex organization, but we have been able to maintain a responsive type of approach in a very, very difficult
budget session. We arc down 50 employees from 500 employees, from where we were a couple of years ago. I
think a good organization is one that struggles through the difficult times and tries to work through those . I think
that is what we arc doing tonight. I know there isn't an answer, other than trying to have the .Council listen to
citizens, focus on things, represent the community, have the management try to figure out the best, most effective
and efficient way of doing things with the resources that we have and have employees that are enfranchised with
where they are at . We are going to have mobility. We are going to lose 5-JO percent a year. To a certain extent that
is healthy . It allows people to move up the organization. We are going to have our own disciplinary problems, but I
think organizationally we have been able to accomplish a great deal. I think the openness of how we try to address
these types of situations is the character of what we are as a community .
Council Member Barrentine said I think one of the ways that we can help as a City Council, as Chris Olson deals
with his morale issues in the capacity that he can, that as a Council, certainly in listening to the community, that we
have a responsibility to provide a police department, police force, and protection for this community and they do an
excellent job. One of the things I think as Council that we could do is to let them know that they aren't on the
chopping block for the budget any more and give them some peace of mind that they have some stability, so that
they can go ahead and move forward. And that is where I think our power lies .
Mayor Garren said anybody else? There were no other questions or comments.

Mluioa:
The mission of lbe Deaver Metro Auto neft Team is to combat auto thefts and vehicle
insurance &:wd. This will be accomplished by thoroughly investigating organized groups,
repeat offenders and those individuals, groups and or organizations that benefit from or
suppon tlus rype of criminal activity.
• OMA TI will work closely with prosecuton in preparing cases in which the
Colorado Organized Crime Control Act (COCCA), if appropriate, can be
unplcmented.
• OM.\ TI will be proactive in the use of .. sting" operations, bait vehicles and
tnformants to penetrate organized groups of auto thieves .

•
't
•
• DMATT will also be proactive by enforcing the "Daily Business Record" statute
for tow companies, auto salvage yards and auto repair businesses.
• DMATT, upon request. will assist member agencies with large, and/or organized
multi-jurisdictional auto theft related investigations.
• DMATT will participate with other Federal, State or Local Law Enforcement
Task Forces that request our assistance on auto theft related issues.
• DMATT will work closely with the Colorado Auto Theft Investigators (CATI)
organization to educate the public and provide introductory and advanced auto
theft training to other Law Enforcement agencies.
Participadoa:
Initially, it is anticipated that for at least the first year the DMAIT will be a pan-time
organization designed to facilitate complex vehicle crime investigations. It is not intended
to be a full-time task force, requiring assignment of personnel at this time. OMA TI will
be activated when a member agency bas a multi-jurisdictional auto theft investigation and
requires additional manpower to properly investigate the case.
Agencies requesting activation of DMATT must be able to assign a minimum of one
Investigator or Detective to participate in Team operations and that member agency's
personnel will serve as case agent and may make available a co-supervisor for the Team
for the purpose of operational plan review and field supervision during search and arrest
warrant execution within that jurisdiction.
Agency heads or designces are invited to quarterly briefings from the Project Director.
Such briefings will also serve as a forum to address any issues of mutual concern to the
participating agencies.
Composidoa: .
DMATT will consist of a combined law enforcement body from the agreeing agencies
with the Colorado State Patrol as the lead agency. In addition, any additional
participating agency that subsequently agrees to the terms of this MOU will suppon
DMAIT. Each participating agency agrees to provide manpower to allow DMAIT to
accomplish its mission.
Specific control of Team members shall be retained by the respective participating
agency heads or designee, who will be kept infonned of all investigative developments
by their respective subordinates.
The primary OMA TT supervisor will be the CSP Sergeant or other designated officer as
assigned by the Colorado State Patrol to supervise the Team.
Liability:

Each participating agency ackno\\ ledges that applicable Colorado State laws govern (
liability for negligent or wrongful acts or omissions committed by its employees while
they are participating as a member ofDMATT . liability for negligent acts or omissions

are the sole responsibility of each of the participating agencies or employees and none of
the agencies or employees waive the benefits or obligations of the Colorado
Governmental Immunity Act; C.R.S. 24-10-101. Participating agencies and individual
team members agree they will not be responsible or liable for acts performed by
personnel of other member agencies while performing DMATI activities.
Each participating agency will be provided with a copy of the Operational Guidelines for
the Team. Each Team member will be required to follow the rules and regulations of their
parent agencies unless T earn guidelines are more strict.
Each participating member remains an employee of their parent agency and each agency
is responsible for salary, worker's compensation, and other benefits afforded their agency
members.
Salary/Overtime:
The Colorado State Patrol will issue purchase orders that authorize the reimbursement of
overtime incurred in furtherance of team objectives as outlined in the Denver Metro Auto
The.ft Team Operational Guidelines.
Assignment or Cases:
All cases assigned or developed by the Team will be jointly investigated by the DMATI.
The development of teams within the DMATI may be necessary to effectively
accomplish the mission. Such teams will consist of a Team member from the requesting
agency and a Colorado State Patrol Investigator and any additional detectives as needed.
It is agreed that unilateral actions on the part of one agency will not be under-taken, as
such actions run contrary to the multi-jurisdictional spirit if the Coiotado Auto Theft
Prevention Authority (CATPA) legislation. All law enforcement actions will be
coordinated and cooperatively carried out
Use of Rocky Mountain High Intensity Drug Trafficking Area (RMHIDTA) Watch
Center is mandatory for DMATI operations to avoid conflicts with another agency or
task force operation.
Records:
All Team investigative records will be maintained in a secure location by the initiating
agency. Copies of all documents generated by the Team with respect to a Team
investigation shall be provided to DMATI unless prohibited by that agency's regulations,
and/or applicable State or Federal law .
{
Classified information and/or documents containing information that identifies or tends to
identify a DMATI informant shall be maintained by the initiating agency in accordance
with that agency 's policies regarding intelligence and confidential informant handling.

The detective, supervisor, appropriate district attorney and the Colorado Attorney
General Office will make a determination, on a case-by-case basis, whether the filing of a
specific Team investigation should be filed with the Disttict Attorney or the State
Attorney General's Office. The determination will be made at the earliest possible time
based on the evidence obtained and a consideration of which level of prosecution would
be of the greatest benefit to the overall objectives of the Team.
1Dcidea11 iavolviD& Team Memben:
Should a Team member be involved in a "critical incident" (deadly force encounter)
relating to and in the scope of Team duties, established critical incident teams will be
utilized. Investigation of critical incidents that occur in areas without a critical incident
team will be investigated by the agency having jurisdiction. Investigative assistance may
be requested from the Colorado Bureau of Investigations as needed. The agency of the
member involved in the incident will be responsible for conducting their own intern.al
investigation. Should Team members from more than one agency become involved in an
incident, participating agencies in this MOU agree to conduct independent investigations
unless it is determined by the appropriate supervisor that a joint investigation would be in
the best interest of the agencies involved. Any critical incident involving the use of
deadly force occurring in the City & County of Denver will be investigated under the
direction of the Crimes Against Persons Bureau under the most recent version of the
guidelines set forth in the Denver Police Department's Operations Manual.
However, if it is agreed that the agencies involved in an incident will conduct their own
investigation, it is agreed that each agency will conduct their respective investigation in a
manner that doesn't interfere with or hamper the investigation(s) of other agency(s).
The Denver Metro Auto Theft Team pmnancnt supervisor will notify the parent agency
supervisor in any instance of a complaint against a Team member arising from Team
duties. The parent agency is solely responsible for administrative investigations and
complaint resolution for their employee and any disciplinary or corrective action will be
the prerogative of the team member's agency.
1Dvesti1ative Methods:
The majority of the Team cases will be prosecuted on the State level. Therefore, the
participants of the Team agree to conform to State standards concerning the collection,
processing and storage of evidence and electronic surveillance. In addition, the use of
other investigative methods (search warrant, intercepts of oral communication, etc ... ) and
reporting procedures in connection therewith will be consistent with the policy and
procedures of the State of Colorado and each panicipating agency. Evidence will be
maintained and processed by the initiating agency under that agency's established
guidelines.

COUNCIL COMMUNICATION
Date: Agenda Item: Subject:
March 21, 2005 9 C ii Award of joint construction contract for
Concrete Utility 2005, Concrete Program 2005,
and Sidewalk Missing Links 2005
Initiated By: Staff Source:
Department of Public Works David Henderson, Engineering/Capital Projects Administrator
Rick Kahm, Director of Public Works
COUNCIL GOAL AND PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION
Council approved Ordinance No. 36, Series 1997 creating a Concrete Utility and ConcrP.te Utility
Enterprise Fund (EMC Chapter 8, Title 12) on May 5, 1997.
City Council has established a citywide goal to meet ADA standards for all street improvements in the
public way. City Council passed the 2005 Budget, appropriating funding for the 2005 Concrete
Program, which was first implemented in 1996.
On March 1, 2001, Council directed staff to begin programming construction for completion of the
Sidewalk Missing Links in the City of Englewood.
On June 16, 2003, Council approved a motion awarding the •concrete Utility 2003• contract to
Thoutt Brothers Concrete Contractors, Inc. The 2003 contract contained a provision to extend the
contract for up to two additional years.
On April 19, 2004, Council approved a motion extending the Thoutt Brothers contract for the 2004
construction project.
RECOMMENDED ACTION
Staff recommends that City Council approve, by motion, an extension of the 2003 construction
contract for Concrete Utility 2005, Concrete Program 2005, and Sidewalk Missing Links 2005 to Thoutt
Brothers Concrete Contractors, Inc. in the amount of $514,241.00.
BACKGROUND, ANALYSIS, AND ALTERNATIVES IDENTIFIED
• Section 11-38-1 of the Municipal Code makes it the responsibility of every property owner to
maintain the concrete curbs, gutters, and sidewalks adjacent to their property. An option available to
property owners is to participate in the Concrete Utility. The Concrete Utility provides a funding
mechanism for co ncrete repair at a reasonable cost ($5 to $7 per quarter for a typical residential
property) and a conve nient way to pay (96% of the fees are collected with the water and sewer bills).
The City contributes its share of the fees just like any private owner.
,,
' .
.·
• •
-
(J.
• For the past several years, staff has worked toward developing a Citywide Concrete Program
addressing existing sub-standard concrete and complying with the Americans with D isabilities Act in
constructing curb ramps.
The cost of these improvements is borne by the City through monies budgeted in the Public
Improvement Fund (PIF). Costs include concrete construction, incidental storm drainage construction,
administration, engineering. surveying, testing. and miscellaneous incidentals.
• In 2001 staff identified and prioritized 16 Missing Links of Sidewalks in the City of Englewood .
The total cost of constructing these segments was estimated to be $1,657,000. These links represent
walks that have never been completed in a Paving District or by other means. Council concurred that
these areas do need work and began appropriating funding in the 2001 Public Improvement Fund {PIF)
toward this goal . In 2005 we anticipate completing the segment on the east side of Zuni Street, from
West Vassar Avenue to Colorado's Finest Alternative High School. Completion of this segment is
contingent on Xcel Energy relocating the poles that are in the way of construction.
• Staff has combined all three concrete projects into to one construction contract in order to take
advantage of the economy of scale . Staff was pleased with the quality, timeliness, and performance of
Thoutt Brothers Concrete Contractors, Inc. this past year and believes that it is in the City's best interest
to continue this relationship into 2005. This extension will save the Concrete Utility and the City costs
related to bidding the project. Thoutt Brothers is familiar with our City construction standards resulting
in both direct and indirect savings in project administration .
• Per the 2003 contract documents, Thoutt Brothers Concrete Contractors, Inc. submitted new
unit prices for 2005. Increases in the price of concrete and fuel have resulted in a 6.4% increase from
2003. Last year, Thoutt Brothers did not increase their unit pricing for concrete removal and
replacement, therefore, the average annual increase over the last two years is 3.2%. Public Works
requested and received backup from Thoutt's concrete supplier supporting the increase. With Council
approval, the City will be able to take advantage of quality work and favorable prices.
Concrete Utility 2005, Concrete P'rogram 2005, and Sidewalk Missing Links 2005 are scheduled for
construction during the spring and summer of 2005.

Scctjon 5. Year to Year Obligations of tbe City. No provision of this
Ordinance, the 200S Lease, the Certificate Purchase Agreement, the Escrow
Agreement, the Commitment, the 200S Indenture, the 200S Certificates, the
Preliminary Official Statement, or the final Official Statement shall be construed or
interpreted (a) to directly or indirectly obligate the City to make any payment in any
Fiscal Year in excess of amounts appropriated for such Fiscal Year; (b) as creating a
debt or multiple fiscal year direct or indirect debt or other financial obligation
whatsoever of the City within the meaning of Article XI, Section 6 or Article X,
Section 20 of the Colorado Constitution or any other constitutional or statutory
limitation or provision; (c) as a delegation of governmental powers by the City; (d) as
a loan or pledge of the credit or faith of the City or as creating any responsibility by
the City for any debt or liability of any person, company or corporation within the
meaning of Article XI, Section I of the Colorado Constitution; or (e) as a donation
or grant by the City to, or in aid of, any person, company or corporation within the
meaning of Article XI, Section 2 of the Colorado Constitution.
Section 6. Declarations and Findings. The City Council hereby determines
and declares that the Base Rentals, which shall not exceed Sl,S7S,OOO annually,
represent the fair value of the use of the Leased Property, and that the Purchase
Option Price, which shall not exceed $21,000,000, reprcscn:s the fair purchase price
of the Leased Property. The City Council hereby determines and declares that the
Base Rentals do not exceed a reasonable amount so as to place the City under an
economic or practical compulsion to appropriate moneys to make payments under
the 200S Lease or to exercise its option to purchase the Leased Property pursuant to
the 200S Lease. In making such determinations, the City Council bas given
consideration to the current market value of the Leased Property, the cost of
acquiring, constructing or equipping property similar to the Leased Property, the uses
and purposes for which the Leased Property is being and will be employed by the
City, the benefit to the citizens and residents of the City by reason of the use of the
Leased Property pursuant to the terms and provisions of the 2005 Lease, the option
of the City to purchase the Leased Property, and the expected eventual vesting of
full title to the Leased Property in the City. The City Council hereby dctcnnincs and
declares that the leasing of the Leased Property punuant to the 2005 Lease will result
in facilities of comparable quality and meeting the same rcquircmcnts and standards as
would be necessary if the acquisition of the Leased Property were performed by the
City other than pursuant to the 2005 Lease. The City Council bcrcby determines and
declares that the duration of the 2005 Lease, including all optional renewal terms,
authorized under this Ordinance, docs not exceed the weighted average useful life of
the Leased Property.
Section 7. Ratlfleatloa of Prior Actloas. All actions heretofore taken (not
inconsistent with the provisions of this Ordinance) by the City Council and by the
officers and employees of the City directed toward the lease purchase fmancing for
the purposes herein set forth arc hereby ratified, approved and confirmed.
Section 8. Headings. The headings to the various sections and paragraphs to
this Ordinance have been inserted solely for the convenience of the reader, arc not a
part of this Ordinance, and shall not be used in any manner to interpret this
Ordinance.
Section 9. Severablllty. It is hereby expressly declared that ail provisions
hereof and their application arc intended to be and arc severable. In order to
implement uch intent, 1f any provi ion hereof or the application thereof is

1997, 1996, 1995, 1994, 1993, 1992, and 1991 micro-surfacing programs, respectively.
RECOMMENDED ACTION
We are seeking Council approval of a Resolution allowing a negotiated contract with Bituminous
Asphalt Sealing Specialists, Inc., a.k.a., BASS, Inc., in an amount not to exceed $460,000 for our
2005 Micro-surfacing Program .
BACKGROUND, ANALYSIS, AND ALTERNATIVES IDENTIFIED
Each year, our Streets Maintenance Division reviews Englewood's 119 miles of streets and
determines which roadways are in need of maintenance efforts.
The design life of an asphalt road is 20 years. In order to coax 20 years of life out of our roads with
the tough Colorado freeze /thaw cycles, studded snow tires, the challenging and constandy
changing subsurface conditions, as well as the truck and bus traffic, we need to periodically perform
some resurfacing treatments .
Staff introduced "Englewood" micro-surfacing in 1991 . Our cbjective was to develop an alternative
to address the maintenance needs of roadways subjected to excessive traffic volumes resulting in
pave ment rutting and lanes requiring leveling treatments along with new wearing courses and
surface seals . Micro-surfacing is a cost effective maintenance alternative that provides rut filling,
leveling of existing pavements, a surface seal and a new wearing surface. The finished product is jet
black, aesthe ti ca ll y pleasing, and exhibits more traction than the original asphaltic concrete for
improved safety. Modification in the product chemistry over the years has enabled us to open
streets to through traffic in 20 to 30 minutes, if required.
BASS h as satisfa c t oril y parti ci pat ed in a partnership arrangement with the City for the last 14 years
to construct o ur micro-surfacing programs, ha ving now placed a total of 2,889,542 square yards of
our design product (a pproxima tely 1321 blocks, or 152 miles of roadway}.
'
... ..
• •
Englewood Public Works Staff has worked with BASS this winter developing a new mix design
utilizing an emulsion manufactured by Asphalt Products Unlimited. The Asphalt Products emulsion
is manufactured in Port Allen, Louisiana and uses a mixture of Arab Heavy, Arab Medium, and
Maya crude slate . Staff attended a demonstration of the new product last year in Mississippi where
the Asphalt Products emulsion was tested side by side against the ERGON emulsion historically
used for our micro-surfacing program. Past ERGON products used Venezuelan crude; however,
recently ERGON has substituted other crude products into their emulsion. Asphalt Products
performed superior to ERGON at the demonstration and we are developing an "Englewood" mix
using it. Our design continues to specify the quality custom crushed, gray granite aggregate
supplied by Asphalt Paving Company, Golden, Colorado.
Micro-surfacing requires highly specialized construction equipment. Based on our last 14 years of
experience, we know that the use of continuous micro-surfacing equipment produces a superior
product when compared to that applied with truck-mounted type machines . Continuous
equipment provides consistency of application and minimizes seams by reducing equipment stops
and starts. The number of continuous micro-surfacing machines continues to grow throughout the
country; BASS owns and operates two of these machines.
BASS has successfully constructed micro-surfacing on selected arterials, collectors, industrial and
local service streets in our 1991, 1992, 1993, 1994, 1995, 1996, 1997, 1998, 1999, 2000, 2001,
2002, 2003 and 2004 micro-surfacing programs. Throughout our 14-year experience with
"Englewood" micro surfacing, and BASS, Inc., citizen response continues to be positive . The
workmanship of BASS , Inc. remains superior.
Staff continues to monitor slurry seal and micro-surfacing activities in the metro area. This year,
cities exploring use of this product include Littleton, Sheridan, Greeley, Arvada, Greenwood Village,
Cherry Hills Village, and Parker.
Most of the cities in the Denver metro area apply either slurry seals or chip seals to help prolong the
life of their roads . Slurry seal is a very thin application product. Because of the thin application (1/8
inch thick or less), the protection and benefits of this treatment are not significant. Chip seals rell,'
on the rock or aggregate to provide traction and protection benefits. However, chip seals are
dustier; when cars drive too fast immediately after the chip is applied, cracked windshields can
occur; the streets are nosier; and, when kids fall off their bikes, their scrapes are worse . Citizen
complaints are typical with chip sealing.
Experience with applying our product is crucial t o a success ful project. We prefer using the only
contractor that has repeatedly demonstrated successfu l applications utilizing the products and mix
designs that we have developed and which has consisten tl y achieved the desire d results . We are
sa tis fied with product performance to date and are particularly pleased with performance on our
local service streets. The contractor, BASS , Inc., is available to accomplish our 2005 project in May.
Our 2005 Micro-surfacing Program will target local, collector, and arterial streets .
FINANCIAL IMPACT
We expect th at bids for standard slurry in the metro area, using local contractors and lower quality
components th an our specificati ons, should range from $1.40 to $1.90 per square ya rd in 2005.
We believe, however, that the reco mmended course of ac tion represents superior value to our
ci tizens, because :
I . The City of Englewood has developed a product th at has superior workability than the standards
being utilized by other jurisdictions.

2. We are utilizing a contractor that has a 14-year track record with this product and our
specifications, and a 14-year history for being responsive to our needs and those of our citizens.
3. Micro-surfacing has construction advantages over slurries in that micro-surfacing can be used for
rut filling and leveling in addition to providing the surface seal and new wearing surface .
4. Micro-surfacing is more customer friendly, and doesn't require large quantities of loose r k that
could cause problems or concerns for our citizens . The short set time allows the roadway to be
reopened without long delays.
5. Micro-surfacing has the capability of being applied in any required thickness that is necessary to
address our street maintenance needs.
BASS is willing to return to Englewood in 2005 to construct our micro-surfacing project We are
anticipating a unit price increase in the range of 5-6%, due to dramatic increases this year in the
price of petroleum based products, transportation and shipping costs, from last year's contract

MICRO-SURFACING CONTRACT 2005
At the City Council meeting on March 21, 2005, Public Works Director Rick Kahm will present a
Resolution for City Council's approval to negotiate a contract for the 2005 Micro-surfacing Program.
The City has partnered with Bituminous Asphalt Sealing Specialists (BASS) for annual micro-surfacing
programs since 1991.
As shown on the map and list of streets submitted with the Council Communication, Public Works is
recommending including South Broadway from Yale to Tufts. Staff continues to monitor the condition of
this major arterial, and a resurfacing treatment is required to extend the life of the roadway and prevent
pavement failure. We estimate that an asphalt overlay of South Broadway through the Englewood City
Limits would cost in the neighborhood of $3,000,000, and it appears that Federal funding assistance is nOl
likely to be available for some time. Micro-surfacing on Broadway can be accomplished for
approximately 20% of the cost of an overlay, or approximately $600,000. $460,000 is available In the
2005 Public Improvement Fund (Road and Bridge Account) for micro-surfacing. Staff proposes to spend
approximately $280,000 on Broadway this year and the remaining 2005 budget ($180,000) will be used to
micro-surface approximately thirty (30) residential blocks. Completing all of the micro-surfacing of
Broadway, south 10 the City Limit Line, is anticipated to be part of the 2006 program.
The high volumes of traffic on Broadway require that the micro-surfacing treatment be applied at a
heavier application rate. Additionally, a leveling pass of micro-surfacing to fill wheel ruts is required
before the final topcoat is applied (see attached typical sections). The newer pavement between Yale and
Hwy. 285 will be treated full width and requires less rut filling than the southern section of Broadway.
Between Hwy. 285 and Tufts, we propose filling wheel ruts and pulling 10 foot passes in the through
travel lanes. The depth of ruts in this section requires application rates that are approximately two times
the rate typically applied to residential streets. Pulling the 10 foot passes will protect the pavement from·
further deterioration. In 2006, we anticipate applying a full width top coat from Hwy . 285 to Tufts, and,
additionally, treating the section from Tufts south 10 our City Limits line .
Public Works has investigated new technology to evaluate rosdway conditions and has contracted with a
company specializing in this area. The process involves a van mounted device that inventories the
roadway condition while driving. The data collected includes depth and cross-section of the ruts, video of
the roadway surface, cracking inventory, and a profile of the entire lane . We expect the contractor to
deliver the data by mid-April, and we will evaluate the information as it relates 10 our proposed micro-
surfacing treatment .
