Pqe 2
(a) Phil Gilliam, 3821 South Huron, said I was at the last South Broadway planning meeting. Most of
you weren 't there and there were some conversations that I thought, perhaps, wc could have. At the stan of the Plan
it says "goals.". Goals imply a paradigm, or a context or a reason to have the goals. Why do wc want a set of goals?
We have goals as outlined by the Plan . The conversation that I think we might need ... what do the goals help us do
or where do they help Englewood go, that wc want it to go? What is the background of those goals? Now, the idea
might be that maybe we want to have the best schools in the State. That might draw people to live in our houses,
which would push downtown development. It is an idea. It is an idea that Mr. Simpson said if we did it, it would
make his job a slam dunk. As it is right now, the South Broadway Plan looks like revenue generation. You look at
the goals, you look at where it goes and all it is, is a way to make more money. At the meeting, Mr. Tomasso said
''I'm even taking a look at a way we can tax landlords." If we want to be about revenue gehcration, put it right out
front. Say, this is our goal and this is the reason . This is our goal, because wc want to generate revenue . There
needs to be language at the start of it and it needs to be language that is developed, and made public and primed in
the Herald, before the goals come up . I looked at both plans and I saw something missing. And what was missing
was the why . But the unspoken ... was, boy, we need more bucks. So. I would just ask you guys to engage in a
conversation with the community about why wc need to go on the hustle for South Broadway. What is there about it
that we really need to do it? Now granted, wc all want to have as nice a looking business district as wc can ... as vital
and productive as it can be, but I think we should be real square about why it is that we are pushing that way and is
that sufficient reason to give it all the emphasis that we've got? I feel like I am one citizen, but that I've got two
different governmental bodies .. .I've got a school district and I've got a city. Everybody I talk to says, well we've
got a comminee and we meet with them once in awhile. I went on the web and got the first 15 of 104,000 sites that
talk about good schools being good for the town. So there is some information out there, somewhere. But I would
think that right now there is an unmet demand in education in the metro area . You've got schools that have waiting
lists. They've got lotteries so they can choose who can go there. If the schools in Englewood met some of that
unmet demand people would be moving into Englewood and popping tops, and scraping off and increuing the
housing stock and their presence would drive the demand on Broad-y. You wouldri't have IO force it. There hu
got to be a way to work with the school system. Right now. Englewood Schools are losing studenls. You see more
and more "for sale" signs. rental signs, and empty houses in Englewood proper. There has got to be 10111C way to
make this work and I don't know as putting all our effort in flll'Cing South Broad-y to revitalir.e ia goina to answer
the question. That is why I say let 's look at the goal and look at the context of the goal. Can anybody tell me what
the context of the goal is? Thanks, he said .

11. Regular Agenda
(a) Approval of Ordinances on First Reading
(i) Assi stant City Manager Flaherty presented a recommendation from the City Manager's
Office to adopt a bill for an ordinance approving an Intergovernmental Agreement with the Regional Transportation
District for landscaping requirements at RTD Elati Maintenance Facility . He said the purpose of the agreement,
primarily, was to address the deficiency in landscaping. RTD has agreed that they have, based on our zoning
ordinance requirements for landscaping of industrial properties, a deficiency of approximately 32 thousand square
feet. Our ordinance also calls out the calculation of that deficiency in the form of a fee in lieu, which RTD has also
acknowledged . However, RTD has worked with the City and has agreed that they would delay the payment of the
fee in lieu, in order to allow the City to enter into an agreement with RTD to explore the option of RTD providing
that landscape area in conjunction with the construction of a future Bates Station. We have agreed on those issues .
The agreement also covers that the parties will negotiate, in good faith, for a Bates Station agreement as well as an
agreement at Lucent Boulevard Station ... the end of the line station, under FasTracks for RTD, which is located on
our McLcllan Reservoir property. And , he said, therein lies the point of contention. Last week we presented to
RTD, language that Council provided to staff during the meeting of April 10"'. RTD has indicated that they could
not accept that language. What you have before you in this agreement is the language that RTD presented to the
City on April 9'" prior to the April lo"' meeting, at which time Council requested a change .
So, Council Member Bradshaw said , our procedure is to move it , get it on the table and then amend it ?
Mayor Garrett asked if there were questions for Mr. Flaherty before we start that process. There were none.
COUNCIL MEMBER MOORE MOVED, AND IT WAS SECONDED, TO APPROVE AGENDA ITEM 11
(a) (I) -COUNCIL BILL NO. 18.
COUNCIL BILL NO. 18, INTRODUCED BY COUNCIL MEMBER MOORE
A BILL FOR AN ORDINANCE AUTHORIZING AN INTERGOVERNMENTAL AGREEMENT
"SUBSTANTIVE TERMS OF THE ELATI LANDSCAPE AGREEMENT' BETWEEN THE REGIONAL
T RANSPORTATION DISTRICT (RTD) AND THE CITY OF ENGLEWOOD, COLORADO.
Mayo r Garrett as ked if there wa s an y di scussion.
Counc il Mem ber Moore sa id I would like to propose an amendment to paragraph number 6 in the agreement. I
thin k past di scussions make it clear that Council desires that we wa nt RTD to understand where our thoughts are
going wit h respect to the develo pme nt of the McLcll an Reservoi r. As such, I would like to put forth the language
we tal ked about previous ly. The ame nd ment would be to modi fy the last sente nce in paragraph num ber 6 to now
read "to the exte nt consiste nt wi th suc h minimization, the amo unt o f developable land shall be maxi mized, based
upon mutua ll y acce pt able design parameters for a station s it e not to exceed ten acres. Structured parking will be
req u ired. if financia ll y feasi bl e ." I wo uld like to suggest tha t we make that amendment so that our inte nt ions are
we ll understood ... o ur vi sio n fo r that land is we ll understood by RTD.
Council Me mber Yurc h ick sai d I have a question on the fi na ncial feas ibility langua ge . Did we want to be more
spec1tic than that'/
Mayor Garrett said wo uld we wa nt to insert "taki ng the Lucent BNlevard Station Project as a whole ." Mr. Moore
said I would agree wi th that revision.
Co uncil Member Yurchi ck said what i the point of even doi na the VOie ? What do we pin by amendina tlu and
passing it . versus u not even voting on II at all ? I guess tha t i more for Ci ty Attorney Brottman than anybody . I
mean. if we pass it the way wt want 11 . they don 't 11,n II and they pay l&S $37.000.00 ... if -.-c don't VOie OIi it at all
the y pa y us $37,000.00.

Council Member Wolosyn said I think we make a public statement of our concept of this project ... to the extent that
we hold ii in trust for a future Council. I think ii is important. Council Member Bradshaw said I agree .
Council Member Barrentine said ii will potentially affect the conversation happening if we do nothing and make no
statement al all al this point. Can we continue to have any talks with them or would this effectively stop that and we
just say this is what we've got on the table and that is it?
Council Member Wolosyn said I hope not, because I think what we are saying is positive. We are adding very little .
I think that we probably have the same idea in mind for the future, except that we want to hammer the language
down a little more, because we are in a position of trust with our community.
But, Council Member Yurchick said, they have already said they are not going 10 accept this language. Ms.
Wolosyn said I think that when we pass an amended one, we make a public statement that we agree to the entire
dialogue so far, except for this .
Council Member Bradshaw said that's right and the other thing is, again I have to talk about the historical value of
that land out there. Director Fonda, when did we get the land out at Lucent? How many years ago? Mr. Fonda said
I think we got ii in the early sixties. And, Ms. Bradshaw said, it has always been considered like a savings account
for the City and I just think that if that does develop, we need to develop ii to the best ... highest and best use. I think
we have to limit how much the station would take as far as land .
Council Member Yurchick said that wasn't my question. I don '1 disagree with that.
Mayor Garrett said I will put in my two cents worth. I think by passing this we are showing that this is an agreement
that is acceptable 10 us. We're trying for a little more structure, but clearly it is subject to good faith negotiations. It
is as if our City Manager's office came forward with an agreement, which they say they don't necessarily agree
with, but their board has passed it. II is up to their board 10 make those kinds of decisions, it is not a staff decision.
And I think we, at least, need 10 put ii on the table so ii goes to the board level and it may help them understand what
our positions are. They may decide that staff is not correct in this case. That is why I think it would be worth
passing as amended.
Mayor Garrett asked if there was any funher discussion on the amendment. There was none .
COUNCIL MEMBER MOORE MOVED, AND IT WAS SECONDED, TO MODIFY THE LAST
SENTENCE OF PARAGRAPH 6 OF THE IGA TO READ: "TO THE EXTENT CONSISTENT WITH
SUCH MINIMIZATION, THE AMOUNT OF DEVELOPABLE LAND SHALL BE MAXIMIZED, BASED
UPON MUTUALLY ACCEPT ABLE DESIGN PARAMETERS FOR A STATION SITE NOT TO EXCEED
TEN ACRES. STRUCTURED PARKING WILL BE REQUIRED, IF FINANCIALLY FEASIBLE,.
TAKING THE LUCENT BOULEVARD STATION PROJECT ASA WHOLE."

(ii) Fire Battalion Chief Schocnbein presented a recommendation from the Safety Services
Department to adopt a bill for an ordinance approving an Intergovernmental Agreement with the State of Colorado
fo.-Colorado Emergency Management. He said in fiscal year 2003 and again this year we submitted and were
approved for approximately $6,000.00 worth of grants to fund the Community Emergency Response Team Training
Program that we have had in the City for approximately ten years. This ordinance, for approval of the IGA, would
streamline the process that we get for reimbursement of the funds from that grant. Currently, the funds have to pass
through the Local Emergency Planning Committee ... that is the Sheriffs office of Arapahoe County. This process
would streamline that and allow the State to directly pay funds to us, and reimburse us, for our costs without having
to go through the LAPC. This is, basically. just taking a step out of the process and streamlining the program. I
would like for you to consider this proposal and I welcome any questions you may have regarding this.
Mayor Garrett asked if there were any questions on this particular measure . There were none.

issuance of Water Revenue and Water Pollution Control Revolving Fund bonds for the Phase 2 Expansion Project .
He said this ordinance is an emergency, basically to get the process going on these two loans from the Colo;ado
Water Resources and Power Development Authority . You will see that the actual loan agreements arc attached and
I should note that. as it says in the ordinance, these arc the form of the agreements and there could be some minor
c hanges still to come, but for the most part, it is 99% done.

(c) Resolutions and Motions
(i) Director Fonda presented a recommendation from the Littleton/Englewood Wastewater
Treatment Plant Supervisory Committee to approve, by motion. an amendment to the Purchase Agreement of
dcnitrification system equipment and installation services from Severn Trent Services in the amount of $98,58 I .
He said there were two vendors who could have possibly provided dcnitrification facilities . We chose this one, as I
indicated previously, because it was the one that allowed the most easy conversion for phosphorus removal. Then
we negotiated the fee for the equipment. As we got further into the design, after the negotiations , we found that
about $98,58 1.00 of the package should be increased in this bid. II docs not increase the total amount of the 110
milli o n. lljusl shifts from where ii is paid. We would be paying the general contractor for thi s, if we weren't
paying Severn Trent. but it makes more sense 10 go with Severn Trent. so we have to modify the contract.
Mayor Garrell asked if there were any questions for Mr. Fonda. There were none.

(ii) A recommendation from the Public Works Depamnent 10 approve, by motion, the
extension of the 2003 construction contract for Concrete Utility 2004, Concrete Program 2004, and Sidewalk
Missing Links 2004 lo Thoult Brothers Concrete Contractors Inc ., in the amount of $428,535.00 was considered .
Mayor Garrell said I would like 10 make note before Rick begins, that we had in our packets a really nice
background summary of the Concrete Utility District that was created in May of 1997 and it gave the ability for
propeny owners Lo elect into that and pay a cenain amount each time to cover the replacement of your sidewalks in
the event that needed to occur.
Director Kahm said if I could, I would like to just briefly do a little overview of that panicular document that was
included in your packet . I promised for months and months that I would bring everybody up to speed on the Utility.
As the Mayor staled, in the City of Englewood property owners are responsible, by Municipal Code, for the
maintenance of the concrete curb and guner adjacent to their properties. In 1997 we did establish a Concrete Utility
which is very unique nationally, it is the only one that I am aware of, to try to lessen the burden on those property
owners to do that maintenance . Prior to that time, if the concrete went bad the Public Works Department would
have to put together a list, we would come to Council, we put a demand, because the ordinance allowed us to do
that, and require the owners to repair it. The owners, of course, were never prepared for that financially . It created a
lot of hardships. So then we would form Concrete Replacement Districts, which were a time consuming and very
costly project for the City. But we would do that work and then we would sell bonds and we would spread
assessments out over ten years in a very complicated and costly process. The Utility allowed us to go out and
inventory all the concrete in the City. We created a cost of about 8 cents a square foot. We assessed the property
owners, based on the square footage basis of what was adjacent to their property. We did the same for the concrete
that historically was the City's ... that would be concrete at intcrsections ... allcy pans, cross pans, and that type of
thing. So that is why every year in the Public Improvement Fund you will see an appropriation from the City of
almost 180 thousand dollars for our share of that program . Altogether that program generates about 600 thousand
dollars a year. We believe , by the way, that this has been a very successful program. Property owners had the
opponunity to opt out of the program, when it was initiated in 1997 . To date, approximately 7% of the property
owners did opt out, but it means 93% stayed in. Of the ones that opted out, many of those were institutional entities.
The hospitals for instance opted out, because historically. the hospitals h:,vc maintained the concrete around their
facilities at a higher level than even we maintain the rest of the City. It has never taken more than a phone call to get
Swedish Hospital or Craig to do necessary work around their properties. So, we do have some of those types of
folks and some of the larger businesses prefer to .take care of their own concrete as well. We do, in fact, have, as I
mentioned, 7% that haven't participated. That totals 707 properties in the City. I also mentioned at our goal setting
meeting with Council that the infrastructure is worth taking care of, because the removal replacement value of the
concrete in the City is about 38 million dollars . Just for the construction. In the packet there were some charts that
may be beneficial to you all . We have one on funding on page 2. The important thing to note is that we have
generated 3.7 milli o n dollars over the last six years and we have spent 3.1 million dollars doing the programs on an
annual basis . We have done six programs altogether. In terms of how we have impacted the community ... during
that timeframe , we 've done work at 18S9 properties. which is a substantial number. That amounts to 270,000 square
feel of concrete that ha s been removed and replaced . Another note on that panicular chan, which is on page 3, is
that we have done 639 drivewa ys. That is important because as the City was constructed, we had raised curbs and
people prefer to have the driveway where the curb has been depressed . So we have had that impact by being able to
do those driveways. In order to be eligible, the driveway has to be in bad condition. We don't just do them, they
have 10 be eligible for removal and replacement. Included in the packet were two pages. one on physical damage
evaluation criteria and a second on hazard evaluation criteria . What you will note is that we had four levels. We
have ne ver been able 10 have the funding to do anything but concrete that falls in the Level 4, the unsatisfactory
category . He said there is a c hart in here that shows you that we have actually only rated 11 % of the concrete in the
City. Right now. as we are standing here . of that 11 % we know that I % is in category 4 ... that needs work right
now. That is about 61.000 square feet and that is the work that would be proposed in this coming year's program.
Opted out propenies are a concern for us . Since the project began in 1997 , our emphasis has been on getting the
proJecl up and running and we ju t have n't followed up on the 7% of the folks that opted out of the program. To
date , there are 2 10 propenies o ut there that are 1101 pan of the program that have unsatisfactory concrete. Included
in the pad.el arc some pi ctures of examples of those ... concrete that may be off grade an inch and a half or two
inches . badly deteriorating and that type of thing. We would like to come 10 Council. .. and thi s is kind of, just a
preparatio n for us ... but , we would like 10 approach those 200 property owners thi s year . The ordinance actually

says that the City Manager and/or his dcsignee can just send letters and give people 30 days to do the work and if
they don't do it in 30 days, we do it. and if they don't pay us in 30 days, we file a lien. What we would really like to
do in this first round, because we haven't followed up on this since the program began, is we would like to come to
Council in late summer or early fall with this list of approximately 210 properties. We know right now that they
will vary in terms of the amount of work that needs to be done from $100.00 to as much as $4,000.00. The average
will be about $500.00 plus the costs of permits. Under the new permit system we've got for concrete, there is a
$200.00 permit fee to cover the costs of administering those permits. In that case, we could sec owner costs running
from $300.00 to $4,200.00, in that range . What we would like to do is put this together by fall, as opposed to 30
days. As I mentioned at our goal setting meeting. we are not overstaffed for this program, so what I would like to do
is give these folks from fall until spring to get this work done . It allows us to spread our workload out a little bit and
also it would, probably, case some of the hardship on property owners by giving them several months in order to
contract and get this work done. If this work wasn't completed, we haven't set the exact schedule, but by May, for
instance, then we would include those propcnics in next year's program. So we would still get the economy of scale
as far as getting the work done, as economically as possible, and then we would lien those folks at that point in time,
send a bill if they don't pay it then we would file liens . But, it would help the propeny owners and would also help
us, staff wise. We aren't equipped to deal with 200 people pulling permits at one time. If Council is agreeable to
something like that, that is the direction we would like to go.
Council Member Yurchick said if they didn't join originally arc they allowed to join now? Mr. Kahm said
absolutely . We have actually had 8 folks that have opted back in, that originally opted out. To opt back in, what
they have to do. is they have to bring all of their concrete on the propcny up to the existing City standard. So, they
have to go out and hire somebody and get it all done
Council Member Yurchick said so they would have to bring up ... so for one of these 210 property owners whose
concrete is stage 4, he has to fix it before he can even join the program. Mr. Kahm said absolutely. In fact, I would
say that when we went and looked at it, if you look at the definition of stage 3, we would probably ask him to do J's
aJl(I 4's, because J's are just waiting to become 4's and it is usually 3 to 5 years and we are dealing with those.
Larry Nimmo does most of the administration on these projects and one of the issues we are getting into, is that we
arc reaching a point when we are out doing work if we've got some 4's and adjacent J's even though the program is
really addressing the 4's, we will do the J's at the same time to bring everything up to speed, because otherwise we
would be back in 3 or 4 years anyway. They can bring it up to standard and then what they have to do is they have
to make up all of the past fees that they haven't paid into the program. And with that, they can be reinstated.
Council Member Yurchick said is the $600,000.00, the difference between 3.7 million and the 3.1 million, is that in
a special account that is earmarked the Concrete Funds? Mr. Kahm said yes, there is a fund and then on an annual
basis we appropriate from that Fund for the annual program. What I have tried to do in the past is keep about one
year in the account. try to have one year ·accrual of funds .
Council Member Yurc hick said one last question . What happens if we do away with the Concrete Utility and I paid
int o it si nce 1997? l s there any future guarantee on walks, or is it, oh sorry you just paid .
Mr. Kahm said we would have to talk to the City Attorney about that, but I am guessing it is, sorry you paid and the
program is gone. We don't have funding . We spend it as fast as it comes in . We have managed to keep pace with
what I call unsatisfactory concrete. but the fact is when we put the program together in 1997, we assumed by year
2006 or 2007 that there might be a balance of one and a half million or two million dollars. We thought we would
be accruing money, because the whole thing was based on a 75 year life expectancy. As it has turned out, concrete
has been going bad at a faster rate than we anticipated. We are okay for now but at some point in the not too distant
future. we will be coming to talk to you all about an increase in order to keep up. Included in your packet is a chan
that Ken Ross put together. !t is a Concrete/Paving District History. and it tells you when the majority of the
conc rete went into the City. You will sec that we had a tremendous amount that went in, in the 1960's and 1970's.
as much a two-thirds of the City. So at some point in time. we are going to ha ve a whole lot of it probably go bad
at about the sa me period of time.
Mayor Garrett asked 1f there were any other qucsLio ns .

Council Member Wolosyn said I don't have any at this time, but in the future I would like to have a Study Session
on it because there are questions.
Mr. Kahm said we had originally hoped to bring this to a Study Session but then we kind of ran out of time . Ken
and I haven't talked about this, but we have kind of neglected those opted outs, because we just haven't taken the
time to follow up on them. What I would recommend is that this year we send some letters and follow up by spring.
I would like to start doing that on an annual basis and try to keep up with those, because some of that concrete is in
really bad condition and creates a hazard out there. We really shouldn't let it set around for years unaddressed. That
is the other thing that I would like to start doing on an aMual basis, probably, getting people up to speed. There has
been no penalty for dropping out of the program, because we have not done anything to those folks who opted out. I
think once we start dealing with those properties, maybe some of those people will start coming back in . I know we
have seen it as properties have changed hands and people have purchased, we've had folks that required the previous
owner to get back in the district in order to get them to close the deals. I think the program will be more popular in
the future than it is right now.
Mayor Garren said would you like to discuss Item 11 (c) (ii)'/
Director Kahm said yes I would. He said this award for our construction contract is just a little different, because
this is something we have never done before. We are always looking for a better way and a more efficient way to
get things accomplished. A couple of years ago, in 2002, when we bid our Concrete Program, we put a provision in
the program that allowed the contract to be extended with Council's approval for up to two additional years, because
we spend a tremendous amount of time putting these things together for bid. In 2002, we just weren't that satisfied
with the contractor that had that project and in 2003, we went back out to bid again and started over. What we are
here with this evening, is we are looking for a motion for an extension of the 2003 contract with Thoutt Brothers.
They did an excellent job last year. Their prices are very competitive. We shopped it out and we have compared it
• with what other cities have gotten. as far as bids go. this year. A couple of minor exceptions ... last year Thoutt was
taking trees out for $18S.OO. We took out a lot of them. because that item should have been about $1,400.00 and
this year it has been raised to between $500.00 to $1,100.00 ... to be fair with them. Also, with asphalt patching, we
had to raise that unit price a little bit. That is what we are a:.king to do is to award this contract to Tboutt Brothen
for $428.S3S.00. One thing that we do, as the communication states, is we include the Concrete Program, which has
money that is put in the PIF to provide handicap ramps . It is our efforts to comply with ADA requirements for the
City. We include those and if we have money for Missing Unks sidewalks, we include that work as well, in one
contract, so that we get the economy of scale. That is what this package amounts to. The Concrete Utility portion is
actually. construction wise. $376,000.00, and we have another SS2.SOO .OO that we would use for ramps. The
Sidewalk Missing links portion has yet to be determined, because we have been using the Sidewalk Missing Links
money as our match on the TEA-21 projects on University and Belleview. Those projects aren't complete and we
know we arc still going to have a balance in those accounts. but we don't know what it is yet. so we will see bow
that works o ut . I know there is some sidewalk on Zuni that we have been trying to get in , for three years or so. We
have been waiting o n Xcel to mo ve some poles, so I think we will be able to do that work this year as well .
Mayor Garrett said as there any questions regarding the extension. There were none .
COUNCIL MEMBER BRADSHAW MOVED, AND IT WAS SECONDED, TO APPROVE AGENDA ITEM

Director Kahm said did I get a nod to go forward on the opt-outs? Council gave him the go ahead. Mr. Kahm said
thank you very much . ·
12 . General Discussion
(a) Mayor's Choice
(i) Mayor Garrett said last Thursday I had somewhat of a dual role. The Sports Authority
was elected, or nominated, and won the Colorado Business of the Y car by the Colorado Economic Developers
Council. Thal was very nice. City Manager Scars and City Attorney Brotzman were there.
(ii) Mayor Garrell said May 8111 is tour of our Waler Park. The letters did go out. They have
probably been received by quite a few people. In fact, this morning someone was thanking me for getting their
letter, so they are excited. II is fun to go by and watch that thing grow and ii really looks neat.
(iii) Mayor Garrett said next week we are doing our road show. Between 6:00 p .m. and 7 :00
p .m. we will have a general discussion with citizens who come to the meeting. Al 7:00 p .m . we will have our formal
Study Session. We will look forward lo seeing you next week.
(b) Council Members' Choice
(i) Council Member Barrentine said I want to thank Sue Osborne for following up with some
citizen questions regarding Code Enforcement. I want 10 thank Larry Medina, Code Enforcement Officer, for taking
me on a tour of District I and giving me a little bit more insight into their job. And I also want to thank Ken Ross
for providing handicapped parking information 10 Linda and James Fall al 4100 South Grant and contacting
residents on Oxford concerning truck traffic.
(ii) Council Member Tomasso said on Thunday night the Historical Society is doing a
presentation, Bungalow Heaven, dealing with the bungalow-style ans and crafts houses in Englewood. The person
giving the presentation is from the Colorado Ans and Craft.s Socie1y. II should be a very intcreslina program. They
will have some discussion on how 10 add 10 your arts and crafts houses. You know, in an appropriale style, so ii is
conducive 10 the archi1ec1ure and some other things you can do for your houses. So thal will be in the Community
Room al 7 :00 p.m. on Thursday. ·
(iii) Council Member Yurchick said we may have resolved this in thal budge! meeting on
Saturday and I just don't remember. Bui I was wondering abou1 the three Safely Services posilions 1hat we funded
through the middle of May. Mayor Garrell said May 3"' is when that discussion will take place . Cily Manager Sears
said it is coming back with a presenlation wilh Chris Olson on those three in particular.
(iv) Council Member Wolosyn :
1. She said I did 0nend the South Broadway Plan presentation lasl Wednesday and I thought i1 was very
pos itive in that yes, objections were voiced al the beginning, but then I think over the course of the evening, the
conversation developed in10 a pretty insightful and different sort of discussion about what we would like South
Broadway lo be and why we have this Plan. I think that I see the facl thal we do walll lO improve the qualily of life
of the entire City by trying 10 raise the face of ourCi1y ... tha1 is so evidcnl to me that I see ii when I read ii, but I
think there is probably something 10 be said for adding language like that. I believe Community Devcloprncnl heard
that loud and clear and made notes on 1ha1. But I thought ii was a good plan and I thought staff, and everybody in
o ur community. handled ourselves quite well . II was fun, ac1ually.
2 . She said the next morning I stood in for the Mayor al the Wastewaler Plant, with Gary Sean. Dan
Brotzman , the Mayor of Littleton and the enlire staff of 1he WastewalCr Trutrncnl Plan1 , where we received a
delegation from Rwandan. The President couldn't come. I think some of the staff met him 11 anodler buildina, after
the di scus ion at the Wastewater Plant . II was very interesting and it was sort of humbling 10 see what ocher people
arc dealing with . I drove home thinki ng, I gel all of 1hi for S 100.00 or S200.00 a yar? I lhink thal wu whal they

said, I can't remember. It was a wonderful opportunity to meet people from another country, see their problems and
put what we do in perspective. I wanted to commend all of you . I thought you did a wonderful job.
3. She said I had requested a waiver of the Swedish b3nncr fee. However, subsequent conversations with the
City Attorney made me realize that it is actually not necessary. The Cultural Arts Commission voted to sponsor one
of the Dala Horses that Swedish is having painted and placed throughout the community, as pan of an awareness
plan . Every sponsor of $3,000.00 or more receives one of these blank Data Horses. which is the little horse you sec
at Christmas time painted red ... that is part of Swedish tradition. So, to make a long story short. since the City is
sponsoring the Swedish Shots for Tots program through 1% for the Arts money, we can hang that without all the red
tape of a resolution . I just wanted to keep everybody up to date on thaL
4. She said thank you for passing the proclamation.
s. She said on Saturday, Englewood Arts is having a matinee chamber concert. Beethoven Septet.
13 . City Mlllllllff'I Report
(a) City Manager Sears said we were at the India exhibit. through the Museum of Outdoor Arts. on
Thursday night and I thought it was a well done .
(b) City Manager Sears said I also want to add that Mr . Fonda did do an outstanding job with the
Rwandan delegation . They were very intrigued with our facility . I know he would like to do an exhibit at some
point in time down the road , maybe for Council or for citizens.
(c) City Manager Sears said I am going to be out of town for a couple days at the end of this week
My wife 1w an opportunity to ttavel and I am going to travel with her. So Mike will be here and dealing with the
Tri-Cities meeting Friday morning.
14. City AUoraey's Report

Intergovernmental Agreements with the Colorado Water Resources and Power Development Authority for the
issuance of Water Revenue and Water Pollution Control Revolving Fund bonds for the Phase 2 Expansion Project.
He said these two intergovernmental agreements are for a loan from the Revolving Fund from the Authority and it
states in here that that is for $33,000,000.00. That is a little bit higher than we actually anticipate taking. We are
looking at $30.000,000.00 and $21,000,000.00 from the Bonds. This is going to fund the $110,000,000.00 total
project cost. Those are being split 50/50 by Littleton and Englewood. This is being done as an emer,ency to take
advantage of interest rates and to have funding for the actual bids as they come in.

(iv) Director Fonda presented a recommendation from the Utilities Department to adopt a bill
for an ordinance approving an agreement for realignment of Brown Ditch in Columbine Valley Estates along
Watson Lane. He said the property owner at Watson Lane wants to make a very slight adjustment in the ditch
alignment. It is not a ditch that we use, but one where we are retaining the right-of-way in case we should ever need
to use it. There is a fairly high probability that we won't, but we arc retaining the right-of-way and we have
determined that this slight movement will not affect our potential future uses of the ditch and therefore we
recommend passage .
Mayor Garrett asked if there were questions for Mr. Fonda. There were none.

(ii) Director Ross presented a recommendation from the Department of Public Works to
adopt a resolution supponing Six Y car Reauthorization of the Transponation Equity Act for the 2 I• Century (TEA-
21) regarding TEA-21 Funding. He said I am here tonight to ulc you to consider passing a resolution that would
indicate your support for the Senate version of the TEA-2 I Funding. This measure has been discussed and debated
for about a year in the Congress. The President has come out and said that he would support a tramponation bill of
256 billion dollars. The United States Senate voted 78 to 20 against that, saying that no, it needs to be closer to 318
billion dollars. The Department of Transportation completed a study of the conditions and in assessing the
performance of our highways and transit they, actually, have come out in favor of 375 billion dollars. The House,
just Friday, passed their version of the same bill and they came in at 293 billion dollars. So, the Senate version goes
the farthest toward addressing the needs . That is why the Colorado Municipal League and the National League of
Cities have asked their member cities to show their support, so when the House and the Senate get together to
discuss this in commillee and try to come up with a compromise bill, hopefully, they will take resolutions from
agencies such as Englewood into consideration. Mr . Ross said if you have any questions, I will be happy to try to
address them .
Mayor Garrett asked if there were questions for Mr. Ross.
Council Member Wolosyn said only to compliment you on the packet item . It was informative and I liked it.
Mayor Garrell said what's the purpose and where will this resolution go and how will it be used? Mr. Ross said it
will be forwarded to our Congressional deleption. We will also send a copy to the Colorado Municipal Lea1ue so
they will know that our Congressional people have received it. It will carry whatever weisht our ConlJrcSIK)llal
people will give it.
Mayor Garrell said what docs it mean to Englewood? Mr . Ross said every two years we apply for transportation
impro vement money . In the last couple of years we have received almost $2,000,000.00 wor1h of projects through
thi s process. Thi s year wc arc in the process of gelling money for a traffic signal at Kenyon and Broadway out of
th e Safety Fund and we arc also in the process of gelling money for the Broadway Streetscape, where wc improve
the medians along South Broadway . Obvious ly, if this gets held.up and there is no money there, then these projects
will have to be held back until those monies become available . So, wc miss this window of opportunity, 1iven the
current construction climate-and the favorable bids that wc are rcceivin1 and who knows what else .

12 . General Discussion
(a) Mayor's Choice
(i) Mayor Garrett said on May 8111 we will have our tour of Pirate's Cove. I think some of
the pools will be full , so for those of you who would like to jump in, feel free.
(ii) Mayor Garrett said I will not be meeting with Gary Sears this Wednesday, as next
Monday night we will be meeting over at the Wastewater Treatment facility with the City of Littleton. It is a joint
meeting so that will be the agenda for next week .
(iii) Mayor Garrett said also it appears I could be testifying tomorrow on House Bill 1396.
That is the bill on disproportionate fee . I will deal specifically with the issue, if Englewood was the precipitous to it,
we didn't have a reason to be the precipitous to it. If it turns out we are not, I probably won't be testifying, but we
haven't gotten clarity on that. We have tried to do that through several phone calls, but haven't gotten that clarity.
So that will be tomorrow .
(b) Council Members ' Choice
(i) Council Member Tomasso said I am curious. I read the paper on Sunday about the
drought. the continued drought. and wondered if it wct11 on for another three years what the water situation would
be, worse case scenario, in three years, in relation to Englewood and our water rights. And I wondered if Stu Fonda
has a plan. a worse case scenario worked out.
Director Fonda said I noticed that the article indicated if Lake Powell continues to fall for seva-al years, then the
State engineer at that time would then try to get a State wide plan. And at that point. I don't. quite frankly, know
what the impact on us would be. If it was strictly the trans-mountain diversions, we have many senior ripts on the
east slope . It might affect our ability to provide as much hi&h priced water to HiaJdands Ranch that we lcuc. I do
not know , he said, barring that there is also a drouaht simultaneOUSly on the cast side. that we would be in a
mandatory restriction capacity at that point. HoweVCI', I will tell you that I am conccmed about it. I am not in a
panicky mode, but it is something that I think we will certainly look into. If Lake Powell keeps dropping, I think
there will be plenty of time to do that type of analysis , because the State will start a procedure and there will be all
kinds of public meetings and so· forth which we attend and sec what sort of things they come up with . Quite frankly,
I don't know, given the doctnne of prior appropriations, how they would cut people back. ocher than in their ·
seniority and we are fairly senior on most of our rights . So right now. I would say it would be unpredictable at this
point. but we would probably be in as good a position as anybody on the front ranae.
(ii) Council Member Yurchick said I just wanted to thank Torn Vandcrmec and Chris Olson
for talking to the liquor store owner up there on Evans and Tcjon and cxplainina why. even thoup he had a license
number . that there were no arrests in hi robbery . He cauaht me the ocher day and he is extremely happy with the
re ponsc .
(111) Counci l Member Wolosyn :
I. he 1d I am scrvina on the Swedish Cen&cnnial Committee . The main proJ«t of that Cornmiaec is a

wo uld agree to the same. As I understand it. it is a policy decision . I have a letter here respectfully requesting that.
Mr. Garrett asked about the dates. City Manager Sears said we actually received the application today, hut I don't
remember what the date was. M s . Wolosyn said I think it will be in the summer. Ms. Wolos yn said they understand
that if there is someone else in line, they may have to shift. Mr. Garrett said they arc willing to shift? Ms. Wolosyn
said right, the issue here is can we waive the fee . Mr. Yurchick said how much is the fee? Ms. Wolosyn said
$150.00.
2. She said we had our big Back to Bach Concert and it was a success. I want to thank staff for all of the
support . It always feels good to bring people in from all over the metro area and wc received a lot of compliments
for the City during that night. I appreciate Council 's suppon through Aid to Other Agencies for this event and also
to staff in general . Amy Doe does a woridcrful job, she said. Also, the previous night, the Young Sinfonia met here.
They also performed and we had another good concert and received a lot of compliments. I heard people saying
they ate at the Patriot and Loyalist Pub and then came up for the concert.
3. She said the Art Show that the Englewood Arts puts on with MOA just ended and we sold $7,600.00 worth
of art so wc will be putting some money back into the General Fund. Several members of Council congratulated
her .
(iv) Council Member Bradshaw:
I . She said I think we have a new day labor business in Ray's district on South Broadway . I !bought they
couldn't go in . Mr. Tomasso said I looked at that and tried to decide if it was a rehab center, becaUIC the people I
saw standing outside did not look like security guards. Ms. Bradshaw said it is on the west side of Broadway and it
is north of Eastman. Mr. Tomasso said it is that building complex where New Balance is on the north end and it is
on the south end. They arc looking for security folks for $8 to SI I an hour. It is hard to tell if it is a labor hall or
just what is going on. I crossed the street and there were a bunch of people standing out in front smoking cigareltcS,
I walked by it once and the group was a little funhcr south and it looked like a methadone clinic . Ms. Bradshaw said
there is a methadone clinic there too. I would like to make this a Council Requcst and have staff look into it .
2 . She said I would also make a Council Request for information on the number of car businesses going in on
Broadway no w. City Manager Sears said as of the end of the moratorium? She said yes. as of the end of the
morat orium .
13. City Manqer's Report
{a) City Manager Sears said j ust a reminder about this Saturday. ThcR will be coffee and rolls from
8 :00 a .m. to 8 :25 a .m. in the Community Room. We arc working through the presentation with each of the staff and

COUNCIL COMMUNICATION
Date Attenda Item Subiect
April 19, 2004 11 a i Approval of Intergovernmental
Agreement with RTD for
landscaping requirements at RTD
Elati Maintenance Facility
INITIATED BY STAFF SOURCE
City Manager's Office Michael Flaherty, Assistant City Manager
COUNCIL GOAL AND PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION
RTD seeks to reach an agreement with the City and secure a certificate of occupancy for the
maintenance facility by approximately May 1, 2004, in spite of the fact that they have not fully
complied with the landscaping requirements of City's zoning ordinance. The terms of this
agreement provide for either a payment of a fee in lieu, as provided by the zoning ordinance, or by
providing landscaping to satisfy the current deficiency of 32,000 sq. feet when the Bates Avenue
Light Rail station is constructed. If an agreement on the Bates Station is not reached by December
31, 2004, or if the Fas Track vote fails and no alternate plan for the Bates Station is in place by that
date, RTD will pay the City's fee in lieu in the amount of $37,000.
The agreement also documents that RTD and the City will cooperate to reach formal agreements
for location of light rail stations at Bates Avenue in Englewood and at Lucent Boulevard on property
of the City's Mclellan reservoir.
While no previous formal Council action related to this issue has occurred, RTD has included the
Bates Station in its Fas Tracks plan as result of Council's interactions with RTD.
This version of the intergovernmental agreement is the version that RTD has agreed to support and
sign . The language that Council requested during their April 10, 2004 meeting was not accepted by
RTD.
RECOMMENDED ACTION
Staff re commends council consider a Bill for an Ordinance to approve a IGA with RTD .
BACKGROUND
The City had been involved with RTD regarding the redevelopment of the General Ironworks site
since 1999 when RTD began planning for their Elati Light Rail Maintenance Center. The GIW site
was selected by RTD from 20 sites along the southeast and southwest light rail corridors. Initially,
RTD planned to use the entire GIW site for its maintenance facility. The City, however, believed
th at th e redevelopment of th e GIW site should include residential and limited commercial/office
uses, rather th an a soley industrial use. The parties agreed on a compromise solution, which would
allow RTD to acquire additional property in Denver, north of the GIW si te, and only use
approximately 'h of th e GIW site for th eir maintenance facility. The City entered into discussions
with RTD fo r redevelopment of the GIW site and development of the Bates Station that would also
t
.,.. .. ..
. .•i
• •
satisfy the City's landscaping requirement for the Elati maintenance center within the southern
portion of th e GIW property. The Englewood Urban Renewal Authority selected a developer,
through a competive process, to negotiate an agreement for the redevelopment However, in late
2003, RTD reached a condemnation settlement with the owner of the GIW site that allowed the
owner to retain the southern portion of the site . This effectively ended the City's ability to negotiate
redevelopment of the remaining ground with its selected developer and reduced RTD's ability to
comply with th e landscaping requirement for their Elati maintenance project causing the deficiency.
After much discussion and negotiations with RTD, we have agreed on language for an
intergovernmental agreement that will address the landscaping deficiency and create a framework
for future agreements for both the Bates and Lucent stations.
FINANCIAL IMPACT
The City will be compensated $37,000, based on $1.15/sq . ft ., by December 31, 2004, as a fee-in-
lieu of landscaping requirements, per City zoning regulations. Alternatively, RID may provide all or
part of the 32 ,000 sq. ft. landscaping deficieny within the area of the future Bates Avenue Light Rail
Station . The value of land received as a result would be in the range of S 140,000-$200,000. Any
portion of the current deficiency not met in the Bates Station landscaping plan would be subject to
the City's fee-in-lieu.

RECOMMENDED ACTION
I Subject: Intergovernmental Agreement for
Colorado Emergency Management
I
Staff Source: Fire Division Battalion Chief
Don Schoenbein
Approval of the Intergovernmental Agreement (IGA) between the State of Colorado Office of
Emergency Management (COEM) and the City of Englewood for receipt of funds awarded to the
City for emergency management activities.
BACKGROUND, ANALYSIS AND ALTERNATIVES IDENTIFIED
In 1994 the Department of Safety Services Fire Division implemented a newly developed Federal
Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) national program to educate, train and support citizens in
response and recovery from major emergencies and disasters . The program, Community
Emergency Response Team (CERT) continues to be part of the public education and support efforts
of the Fire Division . In 1995 the program was offered to the Medical Preparation Program of the
Arapahoe/ Douglas County Area Vocational School (ADAVS) located at the Lowell Annex/
Englewood High School. It has been part of the curriculum ever since . Since 1994 Fire Division
personnel ha ve trained over 200 citizens and 350 ADAVS students on disaster preparedness, basic
fi re suppression, emergency medical practices, basic search and rescue techniques, teamwork,
disaster psychology and terrorism. In addition to the educational component, the citizens and
students have the opportunity to practice the skills learned in mock drills and tabletop exercises.
Th e City of Englewood was one of the first jurisdictions in the country (and the first in Colorado) to
o ff er th e CERT program to its citizens and the first nationwide to offer it at the high school level.
This grant provid es the City with the ability to c ontinue providing this essential program to prepare
cit izens to mitigate and respond to incidents that effect their lives, health and safety. In the wake of
Se ptember 11 , '.!001 the Federal Government made citizen preparedness a priority, using the CERT
pro gram as the vehicle to reach those citizens.
In fisca l y ear 2003, the Fire Division applied for and received approval of a grant from the Fede ral
Em ergen cy Mal} gement Agency (FEMA) to upgrade team training and equipment. The grant was
off red and approved without need of matching funds and was granted through the State of
Colorado, D epartm ent of Local Affairs, Division of Local Government, Office of Emergency
Managem ent. Dispersal o f funds was then routed through the Arapahoe County Sheriff's Office as
the Loc al Em erge ncy Planning Committee (LEPC ).

ATTACHMENT A
1. Compensation and Method of Pavment
A . General :
The State agrees to pay the Sub-Grantee, in consideration for the work and services to be performed,
an amount not to exceed the amount awarded to date. Payment will be made to the Sub-Grantee upon
receipt oflegitimate invoices or claims from the Sub-Grantee for vendor services or other eligible
grant expenses. Such invoices will be summarized with the original supporting documents to be kept
on file by the Sub-Grantee. In specific cases where a Sub-Grantee may have a cash-flow problem,
verified by the State, the State may reimburse the Sub-Grantee based upon unpaid vendor invoices or
Purchase Orders (PO). In these cases, which are exceptions to nonnal practice, the Sub-Grantee shall
be responsible for payment to the vendor upon receiving funds from the State, and for providing proof
of such payment to the State.
B . Advance of Funds :
Some federal grants such as those for Disaster Assistance and for the Chemical Stockpile Emergency
Preparedness Program provide for an advance of funds . In such cases where the federal grant program
allows for advances, it will the State's (COEM) decision as to whether specific Sub-Grantee's
situation warrants the use of an advance. In cases where an advance of funds is authorized by the
State, the Sub-Grantee will be responsible for maintaining expenditure records, and reconciling such
expenditures with the advance of funds, based on a reponing schedule determined by the State. Funds
so advanced will be maintained in a non-interest bearing account by the Sub-Grantee until the time of
expenditure.
C . Year-end deobligation-reallocation of funds:
A potential exists that the total amount of the grant award may be increased or decreased as a result of
a year-end deobligation or reallocation of funds made by the State. Such action may occw-after the
end of the performance period for the grant. Such an action would either deobligate funds not
expended by this or another Sub-Grantee and/or reallocate funds to reimburse eligible program
expenses incurred by this or another Sub-Grantee dw-ing the performance period, for which
reimbursement has not been previously made. Such reallocation of funds shall not exceed the -
percentage of reimbursement, identified in the Grant Award Letter, of total eligible expenses incurred
by the Sub-Grantee. Such actions will be made by Grant Award Letter Amendment, indicating the
amount of the year-end deobligation or reallocation of funds made for the fiscal year, for each eligible
jurisdiction. This Amendment will be signed by both the Director of the Colorado Office of
Emergency Management, and the Department of Local Affairs' designee authorized to sign for th~
State Controller. The Grant Award Letter Amendment will be a valid contract amendment, effective
retroactive to the contract performance period.
::!. Current Award Period -This award shall be effective from the fir.;t date shown in the performance
period on he Grant Award Lener until ninety (90) days after the final date shown in such performance
period. For grants of m annual recurring narure the performance period routinely runs from October
I of one ye:ir through September 30 of the next year. The federal appropriation process and in cases
of disas ter declarations, the disaster declaration process is such that the actual funds for these
progr:irns normally do no t become available to the state until after the starting date of the performance
penod . This results in grant award letter.; being issued by the state for a performance period which
Page I of .l
'
..

-·•
• •
may have started several months previously. The Sub-Grantee may have incurred eligible program
expenses during this period and is, therefore, entitled to reimbursement for same under the terms and
conditions of the grant program.
3 . Amendments -All additional award letters issued under the Initial Award will be considered
amendments only to the amounts or provisions in the Initial Award. All additional amounts awarded
subsequently under this Award will be subject to all of the terms and conditions attached to this
Award unless specifically amended therein. The State may request changes in the scope of service.s or
any other provision in the award letter. Such changes in the scope of services or other provision shall
be in writing via the issuance of an amended award letter, and shall be incorporated herein as part of
this award. Any revisions to the scope of services or any other award provision initiated by the
Contractor must be approved by the State and formalized through an amendment to the award letter.
The Grant Award Letter amendment shall not be deemed valid until it shall have been approved by the
State Controller or his designee .
4 . Financial Management -At all times from the effective date of this grant until completion of this
project, the Sub-Grantee shall maintain properly segregated books of state funds, matching funds, and
other funds associated with this project. Sub-Grantee shall be responsible for accounting for and
reporting on the required non-federal match for this grant, if one is required, either in hard or in-kind
match as provided for in applicable regulations . Records shall be maintained in accordance with
applicable local and state procedures and in accordance with applicable 0MB Circulars (A-87-110).
5. Reponing -The Sub-Grantee shall meet all reporting requirements in accordance with the then
current program policies and any subsequent forms and related program policies as required by the
Federal Funding Agency or the State Office of Emergency Management (COEM). All changes of
policies or forms for the COEM shall be transmitted to Sub-Grantee in writing.

State Auditor , or any of their duly authorized representatives and the federal government or any of its
du ly authorized representatives shall have the right to inspect, examine and audit the Contractor's and

a) Termination Due to Loss of Funding. The parties hereto expressly recognize that the Contractor is

Assuming compliance with the covenants contained in the Loan Agreement, the
Governmental Agency is not, directly or indirectly, (a) using in excess of ten
percent of the proceeds of the Authority Bonds (as defined in the Loan
AgJCCmcnt) loaned to the Governmental Agency or the Project in a manner that
would constitute ''private business use" within the meaning of Section 14l(b)(6)
of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), and at least one-
half of such private business use permitted by clause (a) is neither unrelated to the
governmental use of the proceeds of the Authority Bonds loaned to the
Governmental Agency (within the meaning of Section 14l(b)(3)(A)(ii)(l) or (Ill)
of the Code) nor disproportionate related busillCSI use (within the meaning of
Section 14l(b)(3)(A)(ii)(Il) or (Ill) of the Code) nor (8) using, directly or
indirectly, any of the proceeds of the Authority Bonds loaned to the
Governmental Agency to make or financ:e loins to penom other lhan
governmental units (as such terms is used in Section 14l(c) of the Code).
The execution and delivery of the Loan Documents are not subject to the
limitations of Article X. Section 20 of the Colorado Constitution ('7 ABOR")

enterprise under TABOR. The performance of the obliptiom of the
Governmental Agency under the Loan Documents is not subject to the limitations
of TABOR as long as the System continues to qualify as an entaprisc under
TABOR . If the System is not longer an enterprise under TABOR, the Loan
Documents will continue to constitute lepl, valid and bindina obliptioos of the
Governmental Agency enforceable in accordance wilb their respective tmns;
subject, however, to (a) Creditor's Ripts Limitations or other laws, judicial
decisions and principles of equity relllin& to the enf-t of COlllraclllll ripts
generally, and (b) subject to the next sentence, the revenue and spendina
limitations of TABOR. If the System at any time fails to be an entaprisc under
TABOR, (a) the Governmental Agency may continue to impolC any inaeuc in
fees, rates and charges of the System without voeer approval; {b) all revenues of
the Governmental Agency used to pay Loan Repaymeota lhall be included in the
Governmental Agency's fiscal year spendlna limit under Section 7(d) of TABOR,

the Governmental Agency's revenue and spendlna buis and limits; and (c) if the
Governmental Agency is required to reduce 1pendin1 in order IO comply with its

Amendment for Denitrification
System Equipment and Services
Purchase
INITIATED BY STAFF SOURCE
The L/E WWTP Supervisory Committee Stewart H. Fonda, Utilities Director
COUNCIL GOAL AND PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION
Approval of the Planning and Capacity Assessm ent Study and the Phase 2 Predesign Project Report.
Approval of the Denitrification System Equipment and Services Contract.
RECOMMENDED ACTION
Approve, by motion, Amendment #1 to the purcJ)ase~~~ lyetalt
equipment and installi!,tion services for the L/E wwrP from Severn 'rrerit Services in the amount of
$98,581.
BACKGROUND, ANALYSIS, AND ALTERNATIVES IDENTIFIED
The Littleton/Englewood WWTP has a current treatment capacity of 36.3 million gallons per day
(mgd) and 63,000 pounds per day of organic matter. Two primary factors have been identified that
w ill require expansion of the present facility: 1) higher than anticipated population growth in the
facility 's service area and ; 2) the regulatory requirement to remove nitrate from the plant effluent
These two factors and the need for expansion were presented to both Littleton and Englewood City
Councils at a study session in November 1999.
A planning and capacity assessment project was authorized as a result of the study session and
Brown & Caldwell completed the project at the end of 2000. The results of the project were
presented to both councils at a study session in February 2001 . Brown & Caldwell recommended
increasing plant ca pacity to a nominal SO mgd and discussed the need for nitrate removal that may
result from the o ngoing nitrate Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL) study. Results of the TMDL are
now anticipated in June .
A pre-design project was completed to identify specific plant components needed to expand the
facility to the recommended capacity and include a denitrification (nitrate removal) system. The
pre-design project also included the identification of the regulatory work required to obtain
appro va l from the Water Quality Control Division and the Denver Regional Council of
Governm ents, th e 208 planning agency in the Denver area . As part of the pre-design project. a
preliminary es timate of project costs was developed.
The findings and recommendati ons of the Pre-design Project Report have been accepted and the
engineering tinal design oi the Phase 2 project is now complete. Project cost estimates have been
upda ted anJ reflned as the design progresses.

• •
The Seve rn Trent Services contract for pre-construction technical services, denitrification
equipment, and startup and testing for the Tetra denitrification system in the amount of $3 ,080,300
was rev iewed and approved by City Council in July 2003. During the final design phase additional
equipment items were identified that need to be part of the Severn Trent Services scope of supply.
Amendment #1 to the original contract has been drafted and includes this equipment in their scope
of supply in the amount of $98,581 . This will increase the total Severn Trent contract amount to
$3,178,881 for process equipment, startup services and testing. These services will be provided to
the Phase 2 construction general contractor. The payment of the contract amount will be made
through the Phase 2 Construction Contractor to Severn Trent as equipment is delivered, installed
and tested . The increase is included in the total Phase 2 Expansion project budget estimate of
$110,000,000.
FINANCIAL IMPACT
The cost of the Dentrification System Equipment and Services will increase by $98,581 to
$3, 178,881, is a capital cost and will be split 50/50 with the City of Litdeton . Funds to complete
the equipment purchase are included in the Phase 2 Expansion project budget

COUNCIL GOAL ANO PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION
Council approved Ordinance No. 36, Series 1997 creating a Concrete Utility and Concrete 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 2004 Budget to appropriate funding for this annual 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, City Council approved Notice of Award of Concrete Utility 2003 to Thoutt
Brothers Concrete Contractors. The 2003 bid package contained a provision for the extension of
the contra ct for up to two additional years, with council approval
RECOMMENDED ACTION
~...,, Cl(,
Concreta P~-Sidewalk Missing Links 2004 to Thoutt
in the MnOUOt of $428,535.00
BACKGROUND, ANALYSIS, ANO ALTERNATIVES IDENTIFIED
• Section 11-38-1 of th e Municipal Code makes it the responsibility of every property owner to
maintain th e con crete curbs, gutters, and sidewalks adjacent to their property. An option available to
property own ers is t o participate in the Concrete Utility. The Concftte Utility provides a funding
mechanism for conc rete repair at a reasonable cost ($5 to $7 per quarter for a typical residential
property) and a convenient way to pay (96% of the fees are collected with the water and sewer bills).
The City cont ribu tes its share of th e fees just like any pri ate owner.
• For th e past se eral years, staff has worked towards developing a Citywide Concrete "'°IRffl
addre sing e is l ing sub-tandard concrete and complying with the Americans with Disabilities Act in
con t ru _ting c urb ramps.
t
.· .. ,,
• •
The cost of these improvements are 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 walk and began appropriating funding in the 2001 Public Improvement Fund (PIF)
towards this goal. In 2004 we hope to complete the segment of Zuni St., east side, from the Vassar to
the Colorado's Finest Alternative High School providing Xcel Energy relocates the poles that are in the
way of construction.
• Staff has combined all three concrete projects into to one construction project 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 2004. This extension will save the City costs on bidding the project as
well as Project administration cost because we will be able to work with a contractor who knows the
City standards and follows them with minimal direction.
• New unit prices were requested from Thoutt Brothers Concrete Contractors Inc. the first of the
year. All concrete unit prices will be extended to this year, however the pricing for tree removal and
asphalt patching increased slightly. Staff obtained a copy of a bid for removal and replacement
concrete job in Aurora. Thoutt's unit prices were comparable to the Aurora project accounting for size
of the project With Council approval, the City will be able to take advantage of quality work and
favorable prices.
Concrete Utility 2004, Concrete Program 2004, and Sidewalk Missing Links 2004 are scheduled for
construction during the summer and fall of 2004.
