of the meniien IR senior citizens, be said, and there IR also about eleven families with people in
wbeclchain, using walkers, and things of that nature . We have some bandicappcd spaces set aside in the
church parking lot, but the lots IR on the west side of the church and the south side, across Kenyon. As
you probably know, traffic along Kenyon can move along at a pretty good clip, and there is a fear unong
members of the congregation that it is not a safe situation for the older people. We IR here hoping you
will approve the designation of handicapped spaces on the east side of the church, which runs along South
Acoma Street Currently there is one designated spot for loading, and that is directly in fioot of the main
door, be advised. We IR cenainly willing to give up that loading 7.0DC designation ifwe could convert it,
and maybe the remaining couple of spots toward the curb, as handicapped parking, be said. The church bas
an elevator to accommodate these folb, which was installed about six or eight years ago, and it is located
on the east side of the chun:b, facing Acoma. The parking facilities around on the other side of the cbun:h
IR about a 100-yard walk to the handicapped elevator, be explained. Mr. DesManeau repeated that they
were requesting the lpllCCS along ACOIIII to be designated for bandical'l'Cd. and would only hope to see that
on Sunday mornings from eight to noon. The cbun:h two blocks down the street evidently bas the same
designation and it bappcm to be along Acoma . They have some signs up that indicate handicapped parking
on Sunday mornings from eight to noon, and we hope that you will approve the same for bmnanuel
Lutheran Church.
Council Member Yurcbick ukcd if there could be discuuioo at this time, or should we wait until the actual
ordinance is imroduced. Mayor Bradshaw said be could move the item forward if be WIDICd discussion

Council Member Gama sugcstcd that we have I pRIClllalioa by 111ft
Director Rou advised that the Public: WCllb Depir1menl rally does DOI have a recoonendation OD this
council bill. The City of Enakwood Municipal Cock requires that people wbo develop provide adequate
parking to provide for the hancticappcd. dcpendina upon the size of the parking field. Obviously, when you
arc laying out a site. you arc supposed to put your handicapped parking u close to the fro t CDttlDCe u you
can, and. unfortunately. in certain inslllll:cl whcR you have older buildinp that were buih before this
concern about the Americans with Disabilities Act. that door and that parking is DOI u convenient u
people would like . In this case. it is approximately 200 fm from the closest handicapped parking lpllCC to
the front entrance of that building, be advised . Typically, in that type of situation, the City will put loading
zones, which allow people to get dropped off in front of the buildina, bul you can DIily be there for I certain
time period to drop people off, and then ao find a parking place. The Model Traffic Code, which we
adopted by reference, does DOI allow you to have time limit n:strictiom oa handicapped puldns. The City
Attorney 's office bas drafted an ordinance that wou1d allow modificalioo to allow c-il ID decide that
they want to provide for time rntrictioas oa handicapped parking oa public llleetl. Obvioualy, in the
Public Works Deparlmcol. we get called inlo this -.t of dlins oa I hquml basis. Elderly people wbo
would like to prolKl the pamlll in fioal of dieiJ blue, and have I )w fic..,_t pam111 llicbr, wou1d like
to elimmate pam111 in tioal of their bol&IC by anyone elle and thereby have raerved pamll8. --oaly

Mayor Bradlbaw uked if this WU ID anw:ndment to the Model Traffic Code. Mr. Roa uid it is ID
amendment to our DUDicipal code, which would allow tbete time limit ratrictioas.
CoUDCil Member Moore asked, for the sake of the audience, that Mr. Ross explain why the church down
the street bu tbe9e signs a!Rady, ifit is not permitted under the Code. Mr. Roa uid lbolc parking sips
were put up before Traffic Engineer Vostry's time. We mean:bed our records and could not find the
justification, but the bad DCWS is that, if a penon pub there who does not have a handicapped sticker, we
really could not ticket because it would not be enforceable.
CoUDCil Medler Yurcbick augaled an ahermlive. We -ID have a lol of permit pmiDa in place, be

Council Member Garrett said, if you have two spots in front of the church, and you have eleven families
who have this issue, it becomes a fight. They start getting there at 6:00 a.m. to get the spot He did not feel
this would fully address the concerns and did not know if it solves the use of the street .
Mr. DesMarteau said it may not solve the issue for all eleven familiea that are invohed, but it would
certainly alleviate the problem for a number oftbem, and we would be willing to make thole deciliom u
to who is more appropriate to receive the permits.
Council Member Garrett said, for him to be supportive, be would have to have a full undenlandina of the
policy we are letting. Arc we going to uy all c:bun:bet have tbia ability, because I would bue to uy you
can come and get it, and tell the next c:bun:b that we are not Fina to do that anymore . I would lib ID have
a fmn policy, so we do not have to make individual judgment calla.
Council Member Grazulis commented that, for cburcbet that do DOI have this acccaaibility becaUle of when
they were built, we llhould try the permit If it doea DOI work out, then we can come back to the drawing
board.
Council Member Moore said bis pmomJ reaction to the permits is not a aood oae, only became be doea
DOI lib adding this extra layer. How do you allocate the pennitl, who baa the llllhority to do it? The
handicapped puluoa permit is already in place. The fimdamealal .-for doiD& this ltill aeens clean to
me , be said. I feel that, ifwe put permit parking there, we have gone a step too far . We have already made
this designation of a loading zone, and acconwnodating their request to make it a handicapped zone IOUllds
like a very small change, something easy to do. As far u policy goes, I am DOI Aft euctly what that is .
When l loolt at ii, it is a very siq,le, stnigbtforward request in tbia cue. For me, this is ID easy one, be
said. The apace is already there, and we have already llllde lbat decision. ID lmlll of what ocher
businesses might want, they can make that request about loadin&-. allo. We could be pulblll loadin&
zones up in front of a wide variety of plac:ea, 10 I think we have already emaed iDID tbe bit of cliacmion
that is going to be involved bele. Mr. MOOR felt this would be adequllle policy for DOW.
Council Memier Wololyn uid she could DOt mpport tbe ordinance bec:aule, aldaaup Mr. Moan .,.ta of
it u a lingle inllance, it is not. We are chanpra tbe law, and I feel lbal we are lllppollll ID imb paaal
laws. I really do feel tbat a loadina r.one is the oplimlm way of IOMIII )"llllr publem, llhe -.I,
because, u you said;you aever kllow bow llllll)' people you will have who need it, and• loldma-is
fair. Everyone baa equal acceu to the ftolll.
Mr. DesMarteau said the loadin& zone is not 10lving the pn,blem 1111d lbal is wby be -11ere IDllipt.
Council Member Wolosyn added tbat she -not in favor of chauaina tbe law. We are beq uked to
make ID exception, but who grants variances on lhillp lib this, she ubcl. II it Council? Mayor
Bradshaw said ii is our job. Ms. Wololyn uid she would be llllft likely to CDlel1ain that, than IO cbanae
the law, because it opens the floodgates.
Council Member Yurcbick said that is the aclvllllqe of a permit The law is already in place, all we do is
put up the sign for permit parking. Director Roa issues them ten or fifteen permill and die dlllldi
administers who gets the permits, and we don't have to pus a special law IO KClOllmDdlle this need.
COUDCil Member Moore uid be mpec:11 that poilll ofview. The idea oftbe City pvma I block ofpermill
to a church feels like we are beadiaa down a differeat road than I s--llY lllil* ii ript TIie ocher
advantage of adoptiDa the orclinlnce u it ii, is lbal it will briaa iDID ca•-=• die cludia which -ia

Cowicil Member Grazulis stated that this is a small conununity and there are a lot of people entering into
this need in the future, and I just want to be okay with a church needing it for a certain block of time, which
seems like no big deal.
Council Member Yurchick said it is no different than what we do at Englewood High School Isn't that
permit putting, or no puking except for residents at certain times, be uked. It is the same thing they are
talking about doing up north of Wal-Man, in that part of town . As far as the church down the street, if
those signs are legal, give them the option of having a permit.
CoUDCil Member Moore said be wanted to make sure he was clear on things. The permit, regardless of the
outcome of this vote, is something that can be punued without any change. Mayor Bradshaw said that is
right.

Yurcbick's question aboul the sipific:ance ofdle Sk.erritt Houte. Mr. WbealDll said be is ID ardli1ectural
historian, be 1111 worked for die Nllimal Parks Service for tbiny yan. tllOltly here in tbe Dmm=r and
Colorado areas. I bave a pat deal of expa ience wilb historic:al an:bieecture, pu1icularly wilb venllClllar,
which die Sk.erritt Houle is, which I am ICjNeteatma r.oaipl. It is quite ID.--. lilde llnlelllle, one of
those rare survivun from when die wbolc: metropolitan --very nn1, al they are very few and far
between. There -one boute -I "'J* and Wabinalon Streel, wbicll ii a 6-buildiDa which predata
Denver 's brick ordinances, be said. Thia boute really represents die wbolc: aeme of architecture before tbe
railroad arrived in the metropolitan area in 1871. It is really an exan-.,le of Englewood's identity at this
point. and I feel very S1r00gly that this boute bu a pat deal of architectural sipificance. I believe,
bavins sat on the Govmior·s Historic Preservation Review Boanl for two loo& tmns, twelve years total,
that I have seen nany come across the desk, and this is one of die most ~ little houses in this entire

Mayor Bradshaw said, if we go ahead and do the work that will satisfy the highway depar1mcnt. We do the
work and then put a lien against the house .
Council Member Wolosyn asked if she is responsible for the work that we do now . Mayor Bradshaw said
yes. COUIICil Member Y urcbick said it is a tax lien. Ms . Wolosyn said that is different than she understood
it, and that seems like logical procedure.
Council Member Moore said just as a little background, last year we took some trees down, we did not get
the property fully into the state of compliance, so that wu pan of my confusion, too . In the end, and I have
talked to the owner, the confusion over the property is that, if we just get it into the state we need it
maintained, she lll\lreS me she will maintain it from that date forward. Tbcre is confusion about two
things. One is that what was done lut yar did not reach that level, and the ocher aspect is she bas been on
the property for six yars and she did DOI realize it was her responsibility and it bad DOI been brought to her
attention as an issue until about a year ago. Personally, I am not saying I agree with all of this, I would just
like the property to be in c~liance, he said, and she will take care of it from this point forward. I am fine
if we do a lien approach, he said, but I just want the property looking good.
Council Member Garrett said, if we do the lien approach, she bas to pay for it. Or when she sells the house,
that lie "as to be released before she can sell the property, so I want to mike sure we are all talking about
the same thing . Let me ask two questions. The wort that was done last year, was it with the expectation
that that was what needed to be done to bring the property into compliance lut year? b that an
undentanding she may have bad, he uked.
Director Rou said the work lut year involved -dead trees along the fioalaae, and our undastanding
was that wu the only issue and that ii 'MIii we addrcued.
Council Member Garrett asked ifhe meant the only iuue from the property owner'• point of view, or Code
Enforcement's.
Director Roa said from Code Enforc:emeat's point of view. He said he met with Dave Lynn out at the site,
and tbat wu the burning issue. You mast uodentaDd that, when you have taken care ofa dead lree, you
have taken care of a dead lree, and it ii SC-· When we go out•there and -dloae --is, and then act a
good rainstorm, at the end ofthe llUtDIIIClr, dlOle weeds are ript back. I don't undenland why we would do
this one more time . Her neiahbor wu very patient after he pit bia notice of violation, and he waited until
after the judge found against Mary Motto and then last weekend went out and took care of the weeds. A
fifty-five year old took care of the weeds, and I think he is going to be very interested in what is decided
here , and whether he did the right thing in responding to the notic:e of violation or DOI.
Council Member Yurchick asked why she deserves special treatment when there are a lot ofus who have
right-of-ways that we have to mainlain. Why does she deserve to have the City come in and clean this up
for her?
Council Member Moore felt the difference in this situation is that the pu1icular piece of property is not a
level, nice piece of pus, it is very steep, ript there on 285 . Besides lhe 11eepDe11, her llpmenl would
abo be the danger it presents to her family in trying to Jd out there and trying ID aailllaiD it. So dial is the
ditTettDCe, it is a uniquely difficult piece of property. bit sufflciendy dift'ereul? You caa nab dial
judgment on your own. Mr. Moore uid she bad pven him ID nlilmte from a COlllll'lclDr w1io-cleaning
up the lot between her and Baily's, and he said lhe cleanupofherpn,pertywould na--.1 Sl,000.00.
He asked Director Rou, based on his knowlcdF of the property, wbclher dial IOUDdl evaa lalllllely
reuooable.
Director Rou said he thouaht he would 10 out there and do ii for her for Sl,000.00.

Council Member Yurchick said it is expensive to have trees removed, too.
Mayor radshaw said wc have already put money into that property.
Council Member Nabbolz asked, it would probably be a liability, but why can't wc use the community
service workers to clean it up?
Safety Services Director Olson said there is a hazard issue . I don't know that I would want to have kids out
there on 285 doing that kind of work, be said. The neighbor right to the east went out last week on his own
and cleaned that entire piece of property, but wc see absolutely no reason why she can not get out and do
this, she has already been directed to do it. I would not want to use commmity ICfVice workers, be
repeated, to do that kind of thing. I already have my people, voluntarily, on their own time, cutting
branches down at people's homes, so I have a real problem with that. There is a liability issue that we still
have to watch out for .
Council Member Yurchick asked if she is an elderly lady. Director Olson reapoodcd that she is only thirty-
five years old and in good bealtb, and her bmband is, also.
Mayor Bradshaw said her solution is to do the work and put a lien OD the bollle. Mr. Yun:bick feh she
should be given a chance to do the work OD her own before we clean it up. Mayor Bradshaw mggcsted a
week.
City Attorney BrolmU said there is a process that is act forth in the namicipal code right now.
Mayor Bradshaw asked what the process is, and wbetber she is in court-· Dilec1lor Olaon said she has
already been to court and directed to clean it up. If it does not get taken care of, we hie a private furn and
try to get the best price that we can. Normally, we have regular firms tbat come out and do grounds
maintenance, and then WC lien the property .
Mayor Bradshaw feh that this is the law and wc need to have people rapect it.
Council Member Moore said she still has a court date left, ao if it is not cleaned by August ~, she gets
cited and it goes to court. Theo would the City step in, be uked? Director oi-said be was not IUl'e of
the entire process at this time, but it was bis understanding that she bad already been to court, she has
already been directed to go ahead and do this.
Assistant City Manager Flaherty advised that she bad an administrative bearing. If abe does not clear the
property by the 9111, she will be sUJmlOIISed to court and amigned. She would go to court thirty to forty
days after that, and then it is up to the judge what bis ruling would be. It has not gone through the entire
process , be said, as she has had the administrative bearing only.
City Attorney BrolZrllan advised that the Code Enforcement COIDllittee gave a series of alreroativea at
every step, so the criminal case can proceed, so we c an still clean the property and lien it at the same time .
The Code Enfoo:ement COIDllittee anticipated that you could have this probleni. and did DOt WIIII to have a
weed problem that is cured by the winner, instead of being cleaned up in a timely fubion. We can get the
time frames to you. be added. It is still a liening process, tbou&h-
Council Member Moore said he was still confused . He asked what the next step would be.
Council Member Garmt said what be is bearing is that we juat lc1 it go.

City Manager Sean asked if we should inform her. He felt she should receive a courtesy call that basically
says that we are just going to proceed, unless she cleans it up, subject to the Code.
City Attorney Brotzman said it is required by the Code for that to happen, so, again, you are under the Code
process.
(vi) Mayor Bradshaw asked Comnmity Development to raunect the med car
dealer ordinance, which they worked on five or six yean qo. Some CClllllllllllit have limited the IIUlllber
of lots in their city by si7.e, and by service. Sbe aaid she would like to have Council loot at 1bat around the
end of November.
(vii) Mayor Bradsbaw aaid ,ve have an iuue on the Skaritt HOUie.
Council Member Garrett comnn1ed 1bat the iaue that cune up IOlligbt, wbich -new, -IOlllething of
a veiled enfon:ement threat by the State Hiltoric:al Society. 1 am 11111 familiar with the apecific CODtrlct
language, be allowed, and what our culpability pouibility could be beyond the dollar amounts.
City Attorney Brotzman aaid they pve us $80,000.00, so the liability ii for $80,000.00.
Mayor Bndsbaw said, so ifwe give back the $80,000.00 ... City Attorney Bromnan aaid 1bat is the
amount of the contract. and 1bat is the IIIIOUllt of the enfon:emeut audlority 1bat they have OD the house.
Mayor Bradshaw asked about needing permission from them City Attorney Brotmllll rapooded that, if
you expended the IDOIICY, and you did something with the house, you could be liable up to $80,000.00.
Mayor Bradshaw sa»ifwe kept the moaey. What ifwe retumecl Ibo llllllley? Mr. 8rolZmlD said, then you
have given them $80,000.00 and you are done. Your liability under tbatc:oanct ii 1imi1lld to $80,000.00.
1 am DOI saying they are DOI going to file for an injUDCtion, but your liability ii $80,000.00.
Council Member Garrett asked, when Council toured the house, if other people Wff invited, by Council
and City -~ and if anyone from the Historical Society appean,d.
Council Member Grazulis said she WU DOI IUl'C they Wff invited, although she bad requeaed that they be
invited.
Mayor Bradshaw asked if Library Director Long could amwer that
Mr. Garrett asked if anyone from the Historical Society wu invited. Ma. Gnzulil aaid Ille bas apecifica11y
asked for Roger Brown to be one oftbem, but wu not IUl'C ifbe bad been invited.
Director Long said it was bis undentanding 1bat the tour was for the benefit of City Council and ataft', and
that is the way we interpreted it, and that is the invitation we put out to City Council. If we misunderstood
that, then my apologies , but that was our understandina, We did sugat, that if Council wlllled to invite
someone, they were fiee to do so, but to let us know --we needed the safely mub in order to ao into
the building.
Council Member Grazulis recalled that m an e-mail she thought she llllgated to alt IOIDCOIIC, but Ille wu
not sure bow far that got.
Mayor Bradshaw said we did take the tour, and althoup she aclmowleclpd that Ille ii not an expert, Ille
was not ilq,reued.
Council Member Woloayn said she took the tour, and she ii not ua up.at. either, but Ille could 11111 even
determine what put is &om 1864. One lbma that llu ccme ID die aumce, lhe lllowod, ad I Ft

the report from Andenon/ Anderson, and the fint line of that report -tbat IDID)' believe this building is
the oldest standing ranch house in COiorado. That concerm me, abe said. I'm IOD')', but it does.
Architecturally, I did not see that. I see it u an old building and I do not think we are in a position to go
the whole preservation route. I said that at lhe last meeting, she recallecl. Preservation, u you know, is
more than just saving buildings, it is creating a context, and a life for them afterwards, and this report a1ao
said this building could not be adaptively reuaed, bec1111e it would have to be adapted to ADA standards, so
you could never uae the second floor, and even the tint floor hallways would have to be added. M1.
Woloayn said ahe wu not in favor of burning it immediately, but felt we should put it out there, since it
may be the oldelt building in the state, maybe there is an organization tbat is more capable of addressing it.
I would hate to juat do away with something if there is someone who is williDg to come forwud and give it
what may be ita due. I regret that other people were not in there, becaule you say that it ii a unique
building. One of the unique things about it nay be, like so IDID)' old buildinp, ita provenance wu loat.
You cannot tell what the original pan wu and there are pans added on. lfwe had $600,000.00 to spend on
biatorical praervation for our C'.ilture in Englewood, I would maybe want to loot at ocher building'•
facades along main street that have a broader value to the connmity.
Council Member Grazulis cormnented that that was well said. I do know that on some of the old, hiltorical
buildings, they do not have to be up to ADA. if they are not uaed for anything more thanjuat being
preserved.
Ms. Woloayn said abe had said for a historical livin& farm sort of thing. Ms. Grazulis said the hallway does
not have to be, but that is beyond the point. I am in favor, until we find out more about it and get a better
feeling, I feel like we are almoat butily lmkiD& a decilion becaUle the mooey ii overt1ki1J1 our viewpoint.
She suagested warehousing it until we get a liale bit filrtber along. and other entitiel and poupa would
come forward, and m1ybe we can have m1ny dift'enml poup1 do it u a collec:tive efl'ort. We mipl then be
able to railc amne of this mooey, or have the HillDric:al Sociely do ao. I-very belitantaboutjlllt

Council Member Wolotyn said the ii aot apilllt returnma the pant, becaUle ifwe are in a poaition where:
we are not going to make filrtber investmentl, that mipl happen.
Council Member Ganett said be wu looting at the budpt and be wllllld ID be clear. Where it says
stabilization COllltnlclioo, to wareboule it, will it COit S140,000.00 ID lllbilize it to jlllt hold it? Council
Member Woloayn asked if we have to do that. Mr. Ganett said the tJudaet says stabilmtioa C0111tn1ction.
I WIIII to be 111re, when we say we will board it up, we know there will be nae than plywood and nails,
and I wanl to know what tbat coat is . It says $139 ,000.00. I jlllt want to undenland, ifwe modlball it,
which is one of the suggestions, what are we looting at, and where are Ibale funds goiDa ID come &om.
City Manager Sean said Assistant City Mana,er Flaherty and Director Lona pul toaether the memo .
Ass istant City Manaaer Flaherty said be could connent on at 1eut put of that. The project which we
received the grant for is a S 160,000.00 project, and it ii for the puipoee of stabilizin& the ltnletUR, and
mitigating the lnd-bued paint on the exterior of the buildin& throup an eocaplUlation pn,ceu. That

Historical Fund, however, we are very rapidly approaching the deadline on the COBO grant, and probably
no longer bave the availability of those funds, be advised. So basically wbat we bave is $80,000.00.
Council Member Yurchick said be was still not clear on what we are getting for the S 160,000.00.
Mayor Bradshaw responded that we are getting a building to mothball. Mr . Yurchick asked what they were
doing for S 160,000.00. All I beard WIS encapsulate the outside lead based paint. Wbat does that mean,
that they are painting the house for S 160,000.00?
Assislllnt City Manager F1aberty said the S160,000 .00 includes lltructural stabilization, shoring up the
foundation, putting on a new roof, replacing IOl'lle wood in the window and door area that bas become
rotted, in addition to the lead based paint remediation.
Director Long said be would like to mention one other tbil!g. If the water leak bad not bappeucd, the grant
for $160,000.00 would bave done euc:tly what Mi said. It would have taken care of the exterior of the
building for the foraeeable fillure. The problem came about with the leak, and the reaultaal mold within
the building, be said. We did a tour for Mr. Moore this aftmloon, and Tom Major. I mentioned that the
mold is steadily increuing. We do DOI bave money allocated right DOW to addras the mold issue. It is
pouible that Mi could come up with additional funds, but that mold issue bas to be taken care of, even if
we fix up the outside of the building, IOllletbiug bas to be done now with the inside just to stop the mold
damage, which means ripping out a great deal of the interior.
Council Member Yurchick asked if the water leak changed the lltructura1 condition of the building. Mr.
Long said there is DO real way of telling right DOW, until -of the walls are removed.
Council Member Oarrett said, for S160,000 .00, Ml do wllat we said we were going to do, and DOW we have
the mold problem. Mr. Long said ya. Mr. Ganeu ubd bow IIIIICh the Clliml1e -· Mr. Lq said when
Mr. Major did the tour for us 1be otber clay, be thoupt it would be mound $30,000.00, but that would only
address die north section of the house, DOI the entiR house.
Mayor Bradshaw said the south section bad mold~ tbere is no foundation under that portion. Mr.
Long said that is comet, the entire house bas mold, tbere ii ubestos tbrougbout the house, and tbere is
work that bas to be done, and we have to come up with tbe moaey to ::lo iL
Mayor Bradshaw said they used asbestos mutic on the tile . Mr. Long said i:onect.
Mr . Garrett said we are at $190,000.00 and only deaJina with the north side mold, $30,000.00 for tbe north
side mold, so we have S 160,000.00, plus $30,000.00 plus Ml have other mold and asbestos iuua that are
unknown at the moment. At the same time, if we -return the $80,000.00 back to the State, that is all OD the
City's nickel.
Council Member Wolosyn said the $80,000 .00 WIS for stabilization, right? Mr. Long said right, it wu part
of the S 160,000.00 grant.
Council Member Garmt said be beard one COUDCil per.. uy wc would return the $80,000.00 ao we can
preserve our options, so we do DOI bave the ten year problem. Couacil Member Wololya uid Ille dioupl

Council Member Nabholz said you know my feelings on the Skerritt HOUie. When I took the tour the other
day, I penonally did not think the mold wu that bad in there. I would like to take a look, within the next
month, if possible, at every option we have available. How to save it, what needs to be done to save it, and
maybe even, possibly, and I bate to say this, a sale, u is, with a stipulation about it being an historic site.
Council Member Yurcbick said, if we just keep the bollle, and do :r.ero 111bilization, zero re-roofing, just
get paint OD it IO it does DOI look like an cyaore, what would that COit 111? Director Long said it WIS DOI
just a siq,le thing of painting it, because you have the lead buecl paint OD the exterior. Mr. Yurcbick
asked why we can't just paint over it, u ii. Mr. Long said be ii DOI an enviromnenlal enameer, ao be
canDOt answer that It ii my undmtaading tbat it bu to be eaclpllllated with a apecial kind of paint, ao
there ii a COit factor there. Just to paint it, I have DO idea, be uid, but we could probably come up with an
answer for you very IOOD. You still have a house that ii l1rUdurally quatioolble.
Council Member Yurcbick said that puts a time fuse OIi it, if.-WIIIII to buy it and pre9erVe it, Ibey
have a structural issue to deal with before the thing caves in, IO it pull a time limit on dealiDa with the
project If we go in and 111biliu it, and sell it to someone, it could sit there for another twenty years in the
condition it is in.
Mayor Bradshaw said that ii what Council Member Nabbolz uid, that there would be certain demands on
the sale that Ibey would have to do IOIDething in a certain amount of time.
Mr. Long said, again, I am a librarian, DOI an qineer.
Council Member Yurcbick said bis concern is that it is just an eyesore, when you come from ~ and
go west, it is an eyesore on the bill. If we are aoin& to keep it, at a minimum we need to paint it
Council Member Moore said, for the record, he visited the house today and could not tell which pert of the
bollle WIS 1864 versus 1964. It wu very bard to see how life in 1864 wu like by this house. Alao, the
amount of money required to do the right thing here ii tmnendMI, and I am not convinced it ii ill our
, citizens' beat interest and I would love to see the HiltlOrical Society, ifit ii that impar1ant. to help III out,
step up with IIOllle serious fimdina for it, because rigbl DOW, J do DOI feel it ii I reapomible action 00 our
pert for the rest of our citizens.
Mayor Bradshaw uked if they weic to the point where Ibey could make a motion of some sort
COUNCIL MEMBER YURCHICK MOVED, AND IT WAS SECONDED, TO RAD THE
SKERRITf HOUSE.
Council Member Moore uked what it would take to find out what fimdina ii available from the Hiltorical
Society. Do we have the information already? Have we aheady done our due dilipnce, requested all the
funds, or are there still funds that can be acquired for this?
Council Member Grazul is said she realized that we bad a profeuioaal come in and take a loot, and there
are always second opinions on what it would take . The company that did the actual 1111 -"' ofit and
realized these coats, did they have any other stake in it, like reconmiendin& wbo would do this, she uked.
I realize there would be a code of etbicl there, but I wu just thinking that ninety pacelll of the bouaa in
Englewood have lead based paint, and they have children living in them. It -like in order to jlllt make
this an historical place where kids are not goina to be pawing on the paint, these price& are still
u1rononucal. I think we are going so far over that it just seems outlandish to rue ii because of that. Ms .
Grazulis said she still bu a problem with takin& it down without -elae lteppina up from the State
Histor:cal Society and telling us where the funds are available. I would love to see where these flllllll are ,
and then I will vote oo the other aide, she said.

(ii) Council Member Yurchick
1. He felt the City seuion with ACE went well. He asked Council to consider adding to an
upcoming Study Seasion a look at their recommendationa for Council and staff, and see what we want to
do, and then come back with a commitment to the committee.
2. He suggested having one of Council's outside fOIIIIDI pared IIIOle towmda busilleuea. Maybe we
could have it at a central location, like Flood Middle Scbool, and par it more u a balima forum, nther
than a citizen forum.
3. He said it always concema bim when be pves a request to Code Eafon:ement and there is always
something added OD they say I have requested, that I did not. Thia is a perfect euq,le in the packet, where
I have a citi7.en complaint about dog fec:a at South Emmon, and all of a IUddeD it becomes eiu:esa number
of dogs and dog fec:ea. There -no COlllpllilltGD the number of dogs. OnD1ec1, there wae four clop

7. Unscheduled Vlslton
(a) Roger Brown, 4260 South Grant Street, President of the Englewood Historical Society,
said he wanted to read from the minutes of the Historical Society and the City Council. On August 2, 200 I,
he said, we discussed the Skerritt House and Mike Flaherty and Gary Sean talked about the estimated cost
of stabilization and rehabilitation of the Skerritt House. They talked about grant money that wu there and
the money the City has already received at this point. There wu also tallc about what wu actually going to
be done to the Skerritt House with that money. The one quote that was in here was "once this money has
been spent, the decision has been effectively made not to demolish this house." We were told about the
research into the building, and its history, and the history of Tom Skerritt and discussed the merits of
moving, demolishing or saving the house . Basically, he noted, we had a motion at that poinl to support the
expenditure of the grant monies to stabilize the building and the motion was unanimously approved. On
August 6•, our current vice president addressed Council as an IIIIICheduled visitor and said, "we, as the
board of the Historical Society, endorse the expenditure of the City and State money to stabilize the Tom
Skcrrin property. As custodians of Englewood history, he said, we view this as a prudent and desirable
action ." The reason I bring this up is because last Tuesday we had our board of directon meeting again.
Instead of passing a new motion, basically restating these same things, we decided to reaffirm our
conunitment. We support the expenditure of these grant monies for the stabilization of the Skerritt House,
he said, we do not support a decision to demolish. He aslced if there were any questions. There were none .
He thanked Cowicil.
Mayor Bradshaw thanked Mr. Brown.
(b) CliffYowig, a teacher in Englewood for 40 )'eUS and now living at 3120 West 39•
Avenue in Denver, noted that in 1999 the Englewood City Council pun:hased the home of the father of
Englewood ... the Skerritt House . We were elated bccaUle we tbougbt we had dodged having a realtor
developer get a hold of the property and who knows what would happen to it then. I would like to address
some of the points here, he said. You have a letter from Mart Wolfe, Director of the State Historical Fund,
be said, and here are some highlights . The decision was based on cost, that we couldn't afford to redo the
Skcrritt House . I guess, from the historical penpective, we ask what's the cost of preserving Eqlewood's
history? The building is architecturally significant and that is from Mark Wolfe. He said yes it is. The
director has said that his historical society has put together a million dollan for over 2000 projec11 and he
said the Skcrritt House in Englewood fits exactly what they arc loo..lcing for . So there arc some funds
available above the 80,000 stabilization. W c arc on the local rqistcr and he says that automatically puts us
on the State register. Mr . Young stated we can also get funda through the Department of Local Affairs. So
I think we can exhaust a lot of different ways to keep the burden of restructuring this property off of City
Council and the citizens of Englewood. Mr . Young stated we feel pretty sad about demolishing the fint
primary home in Englewood because of some lead paint and water breakage. It looks u thou&h, when we
talk with Mark Wolfe , that the water damage is mostly cosmetic . So, he said, I would like you to take this
into consideration and maybe we need to revisit this and sec what we can do. I just don't know how much
it will be read, if that structure is marlced with a plaque . Some things that I would consider, u a teacher, is
that we don 't know bow that could be used right now, my sight is not that clear. There arc virtual toun that
can be done with computers and things, there are things that can be done, but we don't really have the
technology now . Give those people a chance, fifteen or twenty yean from now, to be creative. I am
hoping that we will have the foresight 10 be creative and hold off for a little while . He asked if there were
any questions. There were none . He thanked Council.
Mayor Bradshaw thanked Mr. Yowig .

Mayor Bradshaw apologized to Mr. Brewer for making him wait. I am going to have Diane Wray speak
and then we will get to you, she said.
(c) Diane Wray, 3058 South Cornell Circle, said that as we all know the centennial of
Englewood is coming up next year. She stated that the centennial should not be celebrated by the
demolition of the home of our founder . It makes a mockery of any kind of centennial celebration t!Jat could
take place in our city. As a citizen and as a member of the Englewood Historical Society, she said. I would
like to inquire into the process. From everyone I have talked to, we have been somewhat broadsided by
this decision. I would like to know the documents that served as the basis for your demolition decision. I
would like to hear described the public process that supported this decision. I would like to know the status
of your plans for demolition and what the schedule for your plan is. As pan of the documents that serve as
the basis for the demolition, what are the potential sources of funds that we have? I understand that we
already have State Historical Fund monies, grant funds from Arapahoe County and insurance money . Io
other words, she said, we already have quite a body of dollars that are setting there that can be used. And
certainly we can envision a lot of other public sources, as well as consideration of pro bono services from
the conununity. So, first I would like to ask all of those questions and I would like to say that the Historical
Society, and the people in the city that are interested in this, would like to understand this whole process
before any demolition takes place. Secondly, I would like to say that I think the centennial represents an
occasion for us to take stock of the buildings that comprise our city. The redevelopment projects, the big
ones ... Cinderella City and the foundry project ... are well in hand. They are moving forward . And, she
pointed out, if we are going to look to the future, beyond our centennial, and look at the opportunities that
we have to invest in our community, that investment is going to take place in our homes and in our small
commercial businesses and retail strips. What I would recommend is that we use the occasion of the
centennial to create an historic survey of the building stock in our community. 1bat as part ofthis
document, we create a ten-year plan. Once we have identified our important historic buildings, we can
look at where we need to encourage growth. Where do we want our funds to go to help our business
people and our homeowners? Or, where isn't growth wanted? Where do we want to maintain and where
do we have quality oflife now? She opined that we need to work on maintaining it, not cbaoging it. These
are the kinds of decisions and the kind of forward-looking things, she said, that we can understand when we
complete an historic architectural survey of our community. Ms. Wray stated that an historic preservation
conserves an important pan of the planoiog that's going to need to start taking place in Englewood. She
noted Mayor Bradshaw had talked about a building award program. Awards based on mainlenaoce are
divisive, as we saw . W c heard all kinds of differeot testimony about bow making the awards on the basis
of the condition of a building really set off' a lot of fires, on a lot of different levels. But, if we would take a
look at that whole program and consider an award based on the hisr.oric value of the building to the
community, we could have a program, completely voluotary, where the building owners are recognized for
the historic contribution that their properties make. And just this process of recognition, I think, will also
encourage the development of under-maintained properties. A summary of the Englewood Historical
Society 's previous book could be united into a centennial history of the City of Englewood. Using the
summary from the previous volume the Historical Society created could prove as the beading for this
survey and we would be happy to create a subcommittee. I understand, she said, that there is already an
historic preservation person on staff with the City, working 30 hours, that could possibly be devoted to
some aspects of it. She advised that the Englewood Historical Society would be happy to take a leadenhip
position in putting this together. I think there are plenty of ways that private donon and local businesses
could be encouraged to contribute funds to the printing of a project like this, as is nonnal with these kinds
of centennial books that celebrate the history. So please, she said, I think that the Skerritt Houae should be
saved . If the City is incapable ofhaodlina it themselves, then we should look at some alternative types of
ownership or use for it. Worst-case scenario, this house should be boarded up and warehoused. She
maintained that it is invaluable to this community and once it is lost, it is gone forever. This house should
be made the ccm.:rpicce of our centennial events and plans. she said. The centennial should DOI
commemorate the loss of this important structure . She thanked Council
Ms . Wray said she was over there looking at the property . I tbouaJit I would point out that we do want to
make sure that the landscaping on the slde is not lost . There are some very handsome and mature shrubs.

lilacs and trees that probably relate to the historic nature of the property. And if there isn't water over
there, she said, we should at least make sure that the landscaping isn 't lost. That represents a valuable part
of that resource.

Mayor Bradshaw thanked Mr. Brewer for his patience and offered her apology.
6. Scheduled Vlllton
(a) Mike Brewer, representing the Englewood Masonic Lodge, 3500 South Sherman Street.
said that for those of you who are not aware of who we are, we are a charitable organization with education
as our main charity. The Englewood Lodge has been a steady presence in the Enalewood comanmity lince
1926. In the lut couple of yean, be said, the Lodge bu looked at becoming more active in the collllllllllity,
with direct involvement and help in the Englewood schools . In contacting the schools a couple of yurs
ago, we asked them what we could do. Basically, Melanie Drasman of Maddox Elemmtary said we have
a tremendous need in Englewood to help the underprivileged kids who CIDIIOt afford to buy their own
school supplies . As a pamit, I was as1Dllllded that 40% or more of the kids in the Englewood elementary
schools didn't have pencils and paper. The Lodge put together an inrcmal program to help raiae lunda for
that and the fint year we were able to supply Maddox Elementary underprivileged kidl with all of their
school supplies . Last year we supplied all of the underprivileged kids in the Englewood elemmtary schools
with their school supplies. We will do that again this year. And men we asked them what can we do now.
It was brought to my attention that the school libraries were built in the 1950'1 and the boob haven't been
replaced since . So, he said, we wondered what we could do to raise money to put new boob in these
libraries . The idea for a golf tournament came out of that I am here tonight to uk for a couple of thinp.
One , the Englewood Municipal Golf Course, u far u I know, beloup to the City ofEDalewood-We have
made reservatiom on August 17* for 25 founomes to play rouncla of golf; a puUiDa COllllelt, a bole in
one ... that type of situation. If we could get help from the City of Englewood ID cover the COIII of the golf
course , that would help us tremendously, with the proceedl goina to the Enalewood eten.mry acbool
libraries . Secondly, I would challenae the City Council to put together a team to play in that IDUrllamlmt.
We are currently struggling to get enough playen to mike this happen and we could U1C any help we can
get. We are donating all of our time and mources to milm this happen. be said, and any help we could get
from the City and the City Council would be deeply appreciallld. He uked if there were any quelliona. In
response to Mayor Bradshaw, Mr. Brewer adviled that Aupat 17* ii a Saturday.
Mayor Bradshaw asked i(be wanted Council to defray the COits of the golf coune. Mr. ere-said iftbat
is in your power, that would be great.
Mr . Brewer said I believe the greens fees are about S50 .00 a penon and we are cbargina S75.00, SJ00.00
for a foursome . The profit marp1, therefore, is very thin. We are buying imuraDce policies to cover the
hole in one , the idea being to give away a new car in the punin& contest ... these types o(thinaa, He 1111111d
we are struggling to make those quotas . Thia is the fint year we have put this on and, with any charitable
event, there is a struggle that first year to make it happen. If we could have any reduction in Cea Cor the
greens fees, he said, or donations along that line, it would help ua. That, buically, would mike it euier for
us to make the money to pay the insurance policies and give more proceeds to the library tbnd to add more
books .
Mayor Bradshaw advised Mr . Brewer that Council would take it under advilement and act beclt ID bim.
Mr . Brewer thanked Council.
Mayor Bradshaw thanked Mr. Brewer for all their services to our kidl .

Activity Bond Cap Allocation to the Colorado Housing and Finance Authority. This item, he explained, is
a follow-up to the February 11 111 Council Study Session where representatives of the Colorado Housing and
Finance Authority presented a range of programs, that they were able to offer, with benefi11 for Enatewood
residents and businasea. We alao have provided information, in the put, on Metro Mayon' Caucus
programs, which were an alternative uae for the bond cap. Both ofpropama, the Metro Mayon' program
and the CHF A program, have provided housing financiDg. I think Council's diRction, at the time of the
February meeting, was to work with CHF A if an alternative uae of the bond cap didn't come forward by the
July meeting . Mr. Graham stated that the bond cap reverts to the State in September, ifno action is taken.
So, he said, this action tonight, of passing this resolution, would reserve the bond cap for uae in Englewood
to provide home ownership programs.

(i) Mayor Bradabaw said I included a dnft reaolutioa, wbicb baa aince "-
revised, in your pac!cet on the RTD ballot meuure . She uked if Mr. F1abeny would speak OD tblt.
Acting City Manager Flaherty said what I think tbe Mayon' Caucus is requesting, is for tbe tDlllic:ipalities
in the RTD district to prepare reaolutiona to support the RTD ballot 1111111uro. However, I believe this
resolution is still in process . Mayor Bradabaw said ya it is . Mr. F1aberty advised that when it is
completed, and meets the approval of the Mayon' Caucua, then we will brio& it back to Council.
Mayor Bradshaw noted it is just a heads up, for Council's infom.tion.
(ii) Mayor Bradabaw said she wanted to brio& aaolber item up to staff. Remember,
she said, in 1998 we changed the definition of a family, reprdiq the people who could inhibit a buiJdina.
And I remember, she said, that Council Medler Wau-said this is &ODIi to cause all kinda of

think it puts our kids at risk. The other thing is that I think if people have a lot of vehicles, then they should
probably be able to screen them from the front of their property and not with the blue tarp. That, she
pointed out, is another pet peeve I have, the blue tarp. They say they will cover it, but why not use a green
tarp? Anyway, that is a whole other issue . But I think, she said, that might be related to some of our
parking issues too, that it might go back to the family definition that we pused and I would like to have us
revisit that. Mayor Bradshaw asked if there were any questions on that, if that makes SCDIC. I do remember
when we did that and, at the time, I thought it was a good idea, but now I'm not sure if it was. We can
always change our mind, she noted.
(iii) Mayor Bradshaw said the other issue she would like to bring up is the Skerritt
House. I don't know if Council is comfortable talking about it at this point or not, she said.
Council Member Grazulis said I would like to put together a tour of the Skerritt House with the Englewood
Historical Society, perhaps with someone from the Colorado Historical Society and our City people. Then
we can walk through it together, discuss it together and take a look at it together. It ia just my own personal
suggestion, she said, that we temporarily put the demolisbment of the Skerritt House on bold to try to work
out something. Perhaps we could have Ginny Steele try to put together some more ideas of bow to procure
this money that seems to be floating around, but is not coming to stick at the Skerritt House . There is all
this talk about all this money, she said.
Mayor Bradshaw said there arc promises of a lot of money.
Ms . Grazulis said that is right and if we could get some of it stick to the Skerritt House it would go a lot
funhcr than saying it is here, as it is not really here until we 11et it in our hands. Maybe that would help
convince us to go one way or the other, she said, and explore some of the possibilities. And also, that
landscaping should probably be cared for .
Mayor Bradshaw said City properties should be maintained, there's no cxcusc.
Ms . Grazulis agreed. She said these were just some of her ideas .
Council Member Wolosyn said I would like to say that the issue is biger than just the restoration of the
building. I mean, it is a bi111cr responsibility than just a dollan thin&-Historic pmcrvalioa involves
education, she said, I would say it is almost like a nueum buiJdina. I looked at some of the old
discussions, which addressed the fact that we could never 111e the second floor bccauae of the narrow
staircases and we would have to make the doors, on the fint floo,;, wider. We could-. feuibly, have a
business there and I also don't think the location lends i11elf to even a non-profit. There wu a COIIIIIICIII
that it might have made a really good livin& history farm. She noted that that is a really bit commitmelll to
make to a piece of property. That is really why we have been clngina our feet, bccauae we bow that it is
bigger than just fixing it and I don't know that our 11ovemmrnt bas the raourc:ea to be ID hilloric:
preservationist. It is bard for me to say that, but I have to say that She opined lbat the idea of llkiDa a tour
is great, but that we should all talk together about this , because it is a b11 thin&-I beard a thin& oa public
radio on Saturday, on Colorado Matters , that Lakewood bas their 20• Century Livina History Mmeum,
which is a bunch of buildings they have been buying from throughout the State, that they are llllkina a
commitment to restore . I just don 't know if that is one of our functions 111 full service City . I think that
will ultimately be what we, painfully, must decide, she said .
Ma yor Bradshaw said I want to know where the S600,000.00 is 11oina to come from with our c:unent
budget shortfall in thcCity . I love these 11 • hour appeals, she said, that come 1C1011 e-imil and I'm Iliff
you all have copies of my terse response to that. My concern is where bas Mr . Wolfe bin and bow c:ome
all of a sudden he shows up July 3ril and can quote everythina and misquole some tbinp. So, .i. said, 11
far as I am concerned it is whatever the Council wanll to do. I lhouahf -made a very prudem 111d
thorough investigation and we did make a decision . We did apee IO 11ve the arcbilec:tunl r.a-and
other significant features . Now, what I helir experu sayina II lbat we aoc bad ~ Is dlll lNf?
D1d we hire a contractor that then goes out and tells other people that lua recommendation isn 't npr? I

mean this is why it is so damn confusing to me, she said, I don't undentand it I thought we made a
decision.
Council Member Garrett said I do think that we weighed a lot of issues that you raised and I can tell you
when we were first looking at it we were told that the building itself did not really have any historical
significance, other than the fact that someone lived there. That it wu a hodge-podge of different things and
we couldn't tell when different additions were put on and no one could really go back and say what the
original structure wu. That wu the information we received and so this is different. I am concerned,
because we also had some preservation issues, in just even boarding it up, that we had to get through and
that is one reason we were rushing to get things done before winter sets in. If we need to delay, he said, my
recommmdation is that the delay be very ahon. Whatever information and input that you would like to
have, with the tour and whatever, lets do that very quickly. And then we will reconvene to see ifwe need
to reevaluate the situation. I mean, he said, I haven't heard anything that would lead me to want to change
my mind. Mayor Bradshaw said nor have I.
Ms. Wray, from the audience, asked to speak. Mayor Bradshaw advised her that the public speaking part
of the meeting was over.
Council Member Moore said he would just like to reiterate that, on the financial side of it, the filnds that ue
mentioned in this letter were not presented to us. Our dec:ision wu based on what this is going to cost
versus what is fair to our citizens. So again, he said, if the money is out there, we were not made awue of
it.
Council Member Nabholz said, u Mr. Moore said, iftbe IDDIICY is out there lets get it toptber, !eta have
our tour quickly and see what we have . It wu very difficult for me to say lets demolilh that So if there is
something out there, she said, that would be my last hope and prayer ... you never know.
Mayor Bradshaw said I would strongly suggest that we get information &om Rod L Wheaton, who seema
to have a lot of answers and I would also suggest we get some answers &om Mark Wolfe, who IUddcnly is
very interested in what is going on here. I would alao, she said, encourage the Enalewood Hiatorica1
Society to get their ducks lined up, becauae the last time we bailed lbe Englewood Historical Society out, it
cost us three hundred and some thousand dollan. I undenlllld it is difficult, but by lbe token we
haven't heard &om any of you guys and then all of a sudden we mala: a deciaion, based on lbe information
we have, and then there is a small uproar. So that would hi! my direction to staff, she said.
Council Member Wolosyn said .. I would also say that I am probably goin& to take into consideration some
of the comments I heard tonight about historic preservation. Perblpa you can't put all your raourcea iDlo
what may not end up being the most significant
Mayor Bradshaw agreed . In a lot of-ys, she said, I am more concerned about our post office going away.
(b) Council Members' Choice
(i) Council Member Nabholz :
I. She said she would like to say thank you to the police depanment for finally gettin& involved with
Mr. Widgery and his collection of items. It took them four trucks on a Saturday for Officer Medina and
some young men to load that up, so I want to thank them for that.
2. She said I spoke to the Impact Team about 3015 South Cherokee. It looks like a paint booth, it is
part of an old house and it has a long black, plastic section with a s~ cooler in the middle and then the
rest of it is like the back of an old house. So the impact team is very familiar with lbem. abe Kid, but I
would just like a follow-up u to what is ta1an& place there .

3. She said the Laundromat at Logan and old Hampden, Soaps Up, is a hazard. They have hanging
wires, there were little kids hanging on the wires, and they have broken wasben and dryers that have been
pulled out. I don't know whether Lance Smith needs to check on this oue or not, she said, but this is a
dangerous place.
(ii) Council Member Moore:
I. He said be needed to return a call to the rmdent that lives at 285 and Emmon and had the
property in question. Her message, be said, seemed to indicate that there baa been some City action in
terms of gettin& back to her. I would just lib to know what that is before I call her back. So, be said, if I
could find out about that that would be great.
2. He said be just wanted to address the letter in Council's packet fromLuAnne Mickelsonreprding
retiree health benefits. I think we had to deal with this issue earlier, be said. Before we had this problem,
where we couldn't find a medical provider to cover this group of people, what was the cost expectation for
the employee and for the City and what is that now, be asked.
Mayor Bradshaw asked ifbe wanted the cost expectation when she retired in 1995 . Council Member
Moore said the last year of coverage might be representative.
And then, Mayor Bradshaw said, what their expectation was.
Cowicil Member Moore said be is trying to better UDderstand why we backed off of providin& coveraae to
this group. I feel like I might be missing somethina or forgettiq a prior discussion. but it looks like this is
a group of people who made a decision to retire and once they are in reti.euent, the game is cbangina.
Mayor Bradshaw said I agree and not only that but we have the documemation of what was handed out to
that group, at that time, and I think there is a responsibility there.
Council Member Moore asked if we had already made a decision, as a CO\DICil, that we were accepting this
decision.
Mayor Bradshaw said we talked about it as a Council.
Council Member Moore asked what it would take for us to revisit this in more detail.
Mayor Bradshaw said you just have to ask.
Council Member Moore said okay, then I am asJrin&.
{iii) Cowicil Member Garrett :
I . He advised that last night there was a concen here, a woaderful concert put on by the Library.
Thank you very much, he said. I talked to Hank Lona a linle bit this afternoon about some possible
publicny . It was not a robust crowd, but it was an enrhuaiastic crowd. OD the record, be said, I would lib
to thank Mile Hi&h Coffee . It was a warm evenina and they broupl over a whole buket f\111 of water for
the crowd and it was free .
Mayor Bradshaw said there was no cbarae, they just had it there .
Coun cil Member Garren said yes, they just sat it there and said if you need Wller,juat take it. It wu about
93 or 94 degrees when it staned, so that was very mucb apprecwed by the crowd. It wu a bemtiful NaiDa
and JUSt very enjoyable , he said, so thanks a lot

2. He said, u we all know, our Parks and Recreation group is up for ID award. They are one of four
finalists . They are seeking someone from the Parks and Recteation Commilsion and, also, someone from
City Council to go to Tampa when the award is IIDIIOUDCed. I serve two roles, be said, so I would be
willing to go and I would uk if that would be okay with the Council for me to pursue that
Mayor Bradshaw said yes, absolutely.
Council Member Garrett said when I get the information on registration and all that kind of stuff I will be

3. He said I received a letter, and I know at leut one other Council penon who also received a letter,
from a church celebrating their so• anniversary in Englewood. They would lib ID appropriate recognition
of that. I don't know whether this Council would have a problem or not have a problem in recopizina ID
institution that bu been around for SO years with a pn,clanation of some aort.
Mayor Bradshaw said I think we should.
4 . He noted we have been presented a proposal and be asked wbetbcr Council would want ID discuss
it this evening, as the Parks and Recreation Commission will not have the opponunity.
Mayor Bradshaw said I think we need to deal with it then.
Council Member Garrett said I know that historically, since I have been on Council, what we have done is
that we haven't really waived fees at the golf course, but the City bu taken certain lpOIIIOrlbipl and
purchased a foursome or whatnot We are doing it this week with the Chamber and we also have done it
with Keep Englewood Beautiful. Whether we want to let that kind ofpncedent or DDt ii up to Council, be
said, but I know we have done that in the put.
Mayor Bradshaw asked what Council's feeling is oa that
Council Member Wolotyn said I think we need ID look into the other spomonbipl we lave a alao wbl!

2. She said she appreciates Stu Fonda for continuing to work with the community. I hope we can use
this to leverage with Denver for a really great long-term solution.
Stu Fonda said I will be on the phone with them tomorrow.
(v) Council Member Grazulis:
1. She said she regretfully has to let Council know that she will not be here next Monday. I have
been called out of town with John for a family emeraency .
2. She said I also beard that the fireworks were quite popular, c:onaicleriq there wu not a whole lot
going on in the area. Half my family wu here, u I wu out of state then, also. They said they tried to get
u close as they could, and it wasn't very close, but they had a good time anyway.
3. She uked when the next Centennial meeting will be held.
Acting City Manager Flaherty advised it will be held Aupat ..,. .
Mayor Bradshaw and Director Long advised that Legacy has a committee meeting this Wednesday .
Acting City Manaaer Flaherty noted the Program Committee will meet on the 25* of July and Lepcy ii
this week.
Mayor Bradshaw said we will talk about the Sbrritt Houae at Lepcy.
4. She said she still has her report comiq from CML. I have hem out of to-a lot lalely, but I will
get it toaetber. One of the things that wu memioDed wu youlh participation in difCenml c:ilia. We put
our youth on certain colllllliuiona, she noted, and then we j1111 a«t of IIIDp there. Odlllr citiCI IO beyond
with their youth and they even have a position to lit on Council every aiqle -k and tbey take it from

of the commiuions aod lakin& it up to this level of aovernmem, lbe said, bec:aule they only pt 10 a cenain
point and then we slOp .
Mayor Bradshaw said Susan Thornton shared with me that Littleton has a youth conmieaion dial cllllla with
all issues involving youth and they are advisory to Council. Maybe that is die dim:lioa -mild ao,
rather than all oftbeae liaisons . Mayor Bradshaw asked Actina City Manaaer Flaberty to set a bold of that
information from Susan Thornton. Mr. Flaherty said be would.
Council Member Grazulis said that was just one of the things I learned by altendina thole meetinp at
CML.
S. She asked if there ii a possibility of comin& up with an old hil1Drical -tor Iba aqualic park.
perhaps a contest to name the new park. Since it really doesn't have a -ocher dlan die aqualic park at
Belleview.
Mayor Bradshaw said, on Saturday , Olp Wolosyn, Dou& Garrett, John Moore and I went to die Splash. If
you haven 't heard of it, the Splash is located up in Golden and it is iDcredible . SIie DOlld dial oun will be
three times the size of that one .

where that is .

Mayor Bradshaw said she thought a letter from CoUDCil Member Moore, u that district's aepreselllltivc,
would mean sometbin1 . You could have Leigh Ann Hoffhines put one lllgetber for you. Mr. Moore said
that would be peat.
Mayor Bradshaw told Mr. Flabcrty to go ahead and have lbe lcam prepared and dim COUDCil will come by

RE-DIVERSION OF REt:SABLE RETUR.""I FLOWS Of WATER
l. lnuoductjon: P;utjes ;ind Purposes.
Centennial W:iter and Sanitation District (Centennial) owns reusable return flows to the
Soudt Platte River which consist of Centennial' s reusable water discharged by Centennial' s Marcy
Gulch wutewater ae:itment plant (the return flows). The City of Englewood (Englewood} has a
means to re..Jiven the return flows at Union Avenue. and either retain them for use by Englewood or
redeliver same to Centennial . The parties intend that Englewood shall aaempt to divert the return
flows, under the circumstances set forth below. and pay Centennial for the return flows if same are
retained by Englewood; and that Centennial will pay Englewood for re-directin1 the return flows, if
same are redelivered to Centennial. It is anticipated that Englewood will attempt to divert the return
flows at its l'nion Avenue pump station. and either use same immediately in its Allen Tre:wnent
Plant. or exchange same up City Ditch to :Vlcl.:llan reservoir. in Englewood's discretion.
Therefore. the parties have agreed as follows .
2. Ci:ncennial to Give '.'iotice of Avajlabjlitv: Englewood Response .

August 5, 2002 11 a i Unit Development (Safeway PUD) -
First Reading
INfflATED BY Safeway, Inc. I STAFF SOURCE Tricia Langon, Senior Planner
COUNCIL GOAL AND PREVIOUS COUNCL ACTION
There has been no previous Council action concerning this matter.
PREVIOUS PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION
The Planning and Zoning Commission considered The Shops at Hampden and Logan Planned Unit
Development at a public hearing on May 7, 2002 . The hearing was reopened on June 4, June 18
and July 2, 2002 for additional testimony. The Commission voted to forward the PUD to City
Council with a recommendation for approval with the following conditions:
1. Refueling tanker truck access to the site shall be only from the South Sherman Street
access via U.S. 285, and shall be accomplished between the hours of 11 p.m. to 6 a.m.
2. The outdoor garden center accessory use shall be limited to the months of April through
July, shall not utilize more than 20 parking spaces, and the layout shall be consistent with
the PUD proposed site plan .
3. The shrubbery between the sidewalk and South Logan Street shal~ be of one species,
consistent in height and width at maturity, and shall not be of a species that wiR overgrow
the sidewalk. A Burning Bush species is suggested. Further, shrubbery and landscaping
proposed on the west side of the sidewalk shall be_ moved further west up the slope to
provide more grass closer to the sidewalk
RECOMMENDED ACTION
Staff recommends that Council set September 3, 2002 as the date for the Public Hearing on the
pro posed The Shops at Hampden and Logan Planned Unit Development
BACKGROUND
Fueling facilit ies (service stations) are not a permitted use in the 8-1 Business District The
a ppli catio n requests rezoning from B-1 Business District to Planned Unit Development to allow the
a ddition of a fueling facility as a permitted principal use and a seasonal garden center as an
accessory us to the standard 8-1 zone uses .
Galloway, Romero & Associates, representatives for Safeway, Inc ., submitted a prelimiOMY site plan
for th e pro posed The Shops at Hampden and Logan Planned Unit Development on April 26, 2001 .
Th e preliminary pl a n was presented at a neighborhood meeting on June 26, 2001 , as required by
th e PUD O rdinance. Th e formal PUD application was submitted on August 31 , 2001 . The
Development Review Team and outside agencies reviewed the proposal. The PUD District Plan and
the Site Plan were combined and submitted as one document for consideration by the Planning and
Zoning Commission.
The site is located at the northwest comer of the intersection of South Logan Street and US
Highway 285 and is composed of four parcels totaling 4.33 acres. The site contains the Safeway
grocery store, built in 1984, and required parking. The shops to the north of the parking area are
not part of the proposed PUD, however, the PUD site does contain 54 parking for these businesses
per a previous parking agreement
ANALYSIS:
The Planned Unit Development is a rezoning process that establishes specific zoning and site
planning criteria to meet the needs of a particular development proposal that may not be
accommodated within existing zoning ?r development regulations.
The 1979 Comprehensive Plan identifies the sites as part of the Central Business District or
downtown area. The Downtown Plan's generalized land use plan identifies the site as an area
proposed for •medically related development" because of its proximity to the Swedish Medical
Center.
The fueling facility is proposed in the southeast comer of the site and includes six (6) multiple
product dispensers ( 12 gas pumps), an attendant kiosk, and air pump station. A 106 feet by 45 feet
canopy that is 20 feet high is proposed over the pumps and kiosk. Motor-related product (i.e.
motor oil) and snacks would be sold at the kiosk. The fueling facility is proposed to operate on a
24-hour basis with an attendant available during typical Safeway store hours (6 am to midnight).
Areas of concern identified during City review and at Public Heartns included: proposed use,
parking, fuel delivery and fuel tanker access. As this First Reading request is to set a Public Hearing
date, a complete staff analysis and presentation wiU be provided in the Public Heartns Council
Communication.
FINANCIAL IMPACT
The sale of taxable goods such as motor oil at the kiosk would generate only minimal sales tax
revenue. Gasoline sales do not directly generate sales tax revenues for the Oty as revenues are
based on a percentage of motor fuel excise tax collected by the State.

Galloway, Romero & Associates, representatives for Safeway, Inc., submitted
amended plans on June 21, 2002. A formal review of the amended plans by the
Development Review Team was not conducted because of the shortened review
period created when the hearing was continued to the next Commission meeting.
However, representatives of Public Works, Utilities, Fire Division and the
Community Development Department reviewed the amended plans.
The Public Works and Utilities Departments comments are unchanged from the
previous plans reviewed on June 4•h. Fire Marshal Greene's comments are attached
to this report.
Community Development reviewed the amended plans and provides the following:
Amendments to the Plan
1. The fueling facility has been reduced from 8 islands (16 pumps) to 6 islands (12
pumps).
2. The area of the iueling facility canopy has been reduced from 5,940 square feet
to 4, i70 square feet.
3. The length of the canopy has been reduced from 132 feet to 106 feet.
-l . The parking area directly north of the fueling facility has been redesigned from
1 7 to :w parking spaces.
5. The overall total of proposed parking spaces has increased from 237 to 240
parking spaces .
6. The width of the southern-most drive aisle has been widened from 22 .59 feet to
24 .59 feet.
7. The length of th e parking stalls in the southern-most row of parking has been
reduced from 18 feet to 16 feet.
8. The pedestrian crosswalk at the South Grant Street access has been re-aligned
per Public Works Department comments .
9. Shrubbery has been added beneath the trees in the parking lot islands west of
the fueling facility .
Comments :
1. Sheet PUD -1: The amended canopy square footage and percent of area
coverage in the PUD Development Summary Table should be adjusted to reflect
the amended canop size .
2. Required parking spaces : This should be clarified so that either a minimum
number of spaces or an actual pro ided number is determined. On sheet PU0-1
Minimum Off-street Parking states that a minimum of four (4) off-street parl..ing
,.
t
• •
3
spaces shall be provided for every 1,000 square feet of gross leasable floor area
(GLA ). The GLA should be identified in order to establish a minimum number of ·
parking spaces required for the store . Additionally, reference should be made to
the 54 parking spaces required per the parking agreement with the shops to the
north , or the 240 provided parking spaces proposed on Sheet PUD-3 becomes
the required number of spaces
3. Sheet PUD-3 : Notes state that a standard parking space is 8 feet by 18 feet,
while the site plan indicates the typical space is 9 feet wide. On sheet PUD-1,
standard spaces are also identified as 9 feet by 18 feet.
4. Sheet PUD-6 : Notes under the Simplified Comparative landscape Summary
state that the 29 new trees and 231 new shrubs will be planted on site, while the
New Plant Schedule indicates 18 trees and 225 shrubs .
5. The air station should be identified on the proposed site plan.
6 . Two of Staff's original conditions for approval, remain viable (sign issues have
been resolved):
Refueling tanker truck access to the site shall be only from the South
Sherman Street access via East Hampden Avenue and
Outdoor garden center accessory use shall be limited to the months of
April through July, shall not utilize more than 20 parking spaces as shown
on sheet PUD-3 and layout shall be reviewed for traffic and parking
impacts .
7. The applicant has submitted a "Zoning Application Review Criteria Analysis H
providing justification for the proposal under 16-3-6: Standards for Zoning and
Rezoning of the Englewood Municipal Code. This Section pertains to the zoning
and rezoning of property, but does not apply in Case PUO 2001-02 . Though this
case involves the rezoning of property, it is an application for a Planned Unit
Development and thus the Commission is required to apply the standards
established in 16-4-15 : Planned Unit Development (PUD) Zone District. The
Planning and Zoning Commission is required to make the following findings
concerning a PUD application :
District Plan
I . Th e PUD D is tr ict Plan is, or is not, in conformance with the District Plan
req uirements and th e Co mprehensive Plan .
., All req uired documents, drawings, refe rr als, recom mendations, and approvals
have b ee n received.
3. The PUD Dis tr ic t Plan is consis tent with adopted and ge n erally acce pted
stan dards of developm ent in the City of Englewood.
~. The PUD District Plan is subs tan tially consistent with th e goa ls, objectives,
design guidelines, policies .ind any oth er ordinance, law or req uirement of th e
Ci ty.
5. Wh en th e PU D D is trict Plan is w ith in th e Englewood Downtown Development
Authority (ED D A ) area, the Plan is consisten t with the EDDA approved design s,
policie and pl.in . (~: This pr o ision is not applicable because th e EDD A
was disbanded ). • •

1. The PUD Site Plan is, or is not, in conformance with the District Plan
requirements .
2. All required documents, drawings, referrals, recommendations, and approvals
have been received.
3. The PUD Site Plan is consistent with adopted and generally accepted standards
of development of the City of Englewood.
4. The PUD Site Plan is substantially consistent with the goals, objectives and
policies and/or any other ordinance, law or requirement of the City.
RECAP QF ISSUES IDENTIFIED AI PREVIOUS HWING$i
Based on the amended plans, Staff has edited the recap of previously identified
issues to reflect the proposed amendments to the plan (edits appear as bold text):
1. Land Use -addition of a fueling facility principal use and garden center
accessory use

PUD allows for flexibility over
conventional zoning
Fueling station is a convenience

W!:i
Fueling facility is prohibited in
underlying 8-1 zone district
If the fueling station was a use-by-
right. the PUD request would be
unnecessary

Numerous additional minor issues were also identified and discussed during the
Hearings including an increase in City sales tax from the fueling facility. It should be
noted that any increase would result only from the sale of taxable goods such as
motor oil at the kiosk. Gasoline sales do not directly generate sales tax revenues for
the City. Revenues are based on a percentage of motor fuel excise tax collected by
the State.

Englewood approved issuance of $12,800,000 of general obligation bonds at the election held November

the election held November 6, 2001 .
FINANCIAL IMPACT

bonds will pay for both project and issuance costs . A separate levy will be assessed to properly owners In
the City for debt payment.

INmATEDBY
Public Works Deoartment
Ordinance amending Tttle 11, Chapter 1 of the
Englewood Municipal Code to allow parking
privileges for persons with disabilities on specific days
and durinR certain hours.
I STAFF SOURCE
Ken Ross. Director of Public Works
COUNCIL GOAL AND PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION
No previous Council Action.
RECOMMENDED ACTION
The Public Works Department is not making a recommendation.
BACKGROUND, ANALYSIS, AND ALTERNAlMS IDENTIRED
The City of Englewood Municipal Code requires all properties to provide adequate off-street parking
when they develop. Then dependent upon the size of the parking fteld provided, the Zoning Regulations
determine the minimum number of handicapped parking spaces that should be provided.
Typically, good site planning results in handicap parking provided that is in dose proximity to the main
entrance of the building. On certain occasions the handicapped parking is not as dose to the building
entrance as is desired. In those instances the City has typically tried to provide loading zones on public
streets to facilitate better access to the building for people with disabilities. However, this
accommodation does not work well when the driver is disabled.
The Public Works Department has concerns about removing parking from public streets in order to
provide "reserved• parking. Installing handicapped only parking sip effectively eliminates parking on
the public street for 98% of the population. A possible compromise is to only restrict parking to the 98%
of the population during certain hours when the business, residential development, or church determines
there is a need. Currently the Model Traffic Code, which has been adopted by reference by the City of
Englewood, does not allow this . In order to aHow a compromise approach for providing handicap
parking in the public way with time restrictions, the Municipal Code needs to be amended. The attached
ordinance will make time limit restrictions on handicapped parking signs legally enforcuble.
FINANCIAL IMPACT
The City averages about four requests each year, each location requires at least two signs, which cost
about $400 at each location to fabricate and install.

Mayor Beverly J . Bradshaw
City of Englewood
1000 Englewood Pan<way
Englewood, CO 80110
Dear Mayor Bradshaw :
(II
COIDRADO
HISTORICAL
SOCIETY
--,..
When the City of Englewood made the wise and considered decision to acquire the
Skerritt House. it did so knowing that there would be difficulties in the path it had chosen.
The house was in deteriorated condition, and such properties often require an
investment of time and money to bring them back into a condition that will permit them to
serve their communities . But Skerritrs significance as the "Father of Englewood• made
the project worthwhile . The City's adoption of an historic preservation ordinance.
permitting local designation. was a byproduct of this project. and I'm sure that ordinance
will continue to serve the people of your community for many years to come.
It has come to my attention that the City of Englewood's Council has now made the
decision to demolish the Skerritt House. Your letter to that effect. issued on June 18"' to
the Englewood Herald. cites several reasons for this decision . First, the suggestion is
made that "the structure has no actual architectural significance·. Next, the costs
associated with the restoration of the house are cited. And finally, recent damage
caused by a water line break is mentioned . Please permit me to address each of these
issues ,n turn .
The Skemtt House most certainly is architecturally significant. Any misunderstanding on
th is point ,s probably related to its elig1b1lity for designation on the National Register of
Historic Places . The National Register permits designation under a variety of criteria . No
one basis for designation is more important than another . The Skerritt House has been
altered over time . and as it stands today ,t is not eligible for designation on the National
Register of Historic Places for ,ts architecture. However , it has been officially detennined
el igible for its history . rne fact that a property is not eligible for National Regis• listing
for ,ts architecture does not mean that it ,s not architecturally significant It simply means
that either the property has been altered or that its condition is such that 1t falls to convey
its significance to the observer. Once restored . the Skerritt House might then be
considered el igible for National Register status based on ,ts architecture. It is, attar all .
one of very few houses of its kind in Englewood . 1f not the only example of such an earty
homestead .

Although the costs of restoration of the Skerritt House are substantial, I would like to
offer the assistance of the State Historical Fund . Sinca its creation a decade ago, the
State Historical Fund has assisted more than 2.JOO projects and has distributed over
$100 million. The majority of those funds have gone to public entities, in accordance with
our statutory mandate. The Skerritt House is a perfect fit for our program. The property is
publicly owned. it is most certainly historically significant (listed on your local register,
and determined eligible for listing on the National Register. which automatically means
that it is also eligible for listing on the State Register). and we have altudy agreed to
provide funding toward the building's stabilization. Although I cannot make promises that
would bind my Board of Directors, I feel secure in saying that this property, with an
appropriate public reuse in mind. would do very well in our competitive program. And as
a local government project, other funds may also be available through such sources as
the Department of Local Affairs. There is no reason for you to think that the City of
Englewood would be forced to fund this project in its entirety .
Finally, while I understand that the building suffered some damage as a result of a
broken water line. the consultant on the SHF-funded Historic Structure Assessment
grant has indicated that the damage is mostly cosmetic. The house will probably
deteriorate at a faster rate due to this damage . But there is no reason to demolish the
house merely because it now looks somewhat worse than it did before .
In the end, the Skerritt House is much more than a piece of real estate whose fate is to
be decided based exclusively on what is "cost-effective". It represents the beginning of
your community, the genesis of Englewood. A marker on a vacant lot cannot convey that
significance to your citiZens.
I do not question your commitment to preserving your community's history. I only ask
that you reconsider your options before it is too late.
I ask that you place this matter on the agenda of your meeting on July 16, 2002. Alyson
McGee-. Public Outreach Coordinator for the State Historical Fund will attend that
meeting to express our desire to assist in the preservation of this important place. In the
meantime. if you have any questions regarding our potential role in this project. please
don't hesitate to contact me at (303) 866-2n6.

Business Survey and Business Forums
The Alliance for Commerce in Englewood (ACE) initiated the Englewood Business Survey for
the purpose of establishing a baseline for the business community, discovering business
concerns, and creating an action plan for business improvement National Research Center
conducted a survey similar to the Englewood Citizen Survey to determine the business baseline.
The business perspective of the members of ACE provided valuable input for a streamlined,
effective survey. ACE understands that a community is both ~esidents and business. Both
residents and business must be healthy for the community to be strong and vital.
In addition, ACE conducted a series of business forums, in conjunction with the development of
the Comprehensive Plan that will help to identify and eliminate barriers to business success and
encourage private financial investment in Englewood.
The four groups for the forums included 1) shareholders in the current market, 2) the physical
attributes of the commercial properties, 3) the regulatory dimate and, 4) the finance aspects.
Each group met three times to discuss their area of interest, education about issues and possible
improvement actions. A fourth meeting brought together aH participants and City staff to create
an overview of the effort. Business owners, property owners, real estate brokers transportation,
infrastructure providers, private developers, financial and economic developers participated in
the forums .
The two-pronged approach of business survey and business forum provided communication
from many different business perspectives in Englewood. ACE is confident that the infonnation
presented to Council is representative of the current Englewood business climate, as well as
identi fy ing the barriers and opportunities for business succl!SS for a future Enalewood plan .

MEMORANDUM
To : City Council . V
From : Michael Flaherty, Assistant City Manager ' f('
Throup: Gary Sears, City Manager
Date : August 1, 2002
Subject: Motto Property at Emerson & HWY 285 Maintenance
The City Manaser has requested that I provide background information on the matter of
3588 S. Emerson Street in which the property owner, Ms . Mary Motto, has questioned
the City's order to clear weeds from the right-of-way adjacent to her property. I have
obtained the following information from the Public Works Department and the Code
Enforcement Division of Safety Services .
The m&tter of maintenance of the state right-of-way adjacent to private property along
HWY 28S east of Logan Street has been an issue since lat swnmer . The IUacbed
memorandum from Public Works Director, Ken Rou. dated August l, 2001, explains
that State law passes right-of-way responsibilities to local jurisdictions and that the
Englewood City Code requires that adjacent property owners maintain this public riaht-
of-way; a copy of the City Code citation is also auached. Ken's memo further states that
the Code Enforcement Division had worked with seven property owners alooa HWY 28S
in 200 I to gain compliance with the City Code . Five of the seven complied at that time
and one owner worked out an agreement to complete the work over an extended period of
time . Ms . Motto failed to comply with a Notice of Violation issued for dead trees on the
public right-of-way adjacent to her property .
Later in August of 200 I , Public Works staff' cut a narrow shelf along 28S for pedestrians,
as no sidewalk exists in that area . At that time Ken instructed his workers to QJl down
some dead trees while they were doing this work in order to get the Ms. Motto problem
resolved . Dead trees were the violation last year, weeds were not, and Public Works did
not cut any weeds .
No additional Code violations were issued to Ms . Motto in 2001; however, on May 9,
2002, she was issued a Notice of Violation for weeds . On May 29, 2002, Code
Enforcement personnel met with Ms Motto It her property to clarify 1-reaponsibility .
la early June, the Code Enforcement Division apin anempted to have the Colorado
Deplltment ofTransportltion take responsibility for c:learins the weeds, however, the
State denied responsibility in the attached letter, dated June 16, 2002 .
A leCOlld Notice of Violation wu iuued to Ms. Moeto cm June 27, 2002, for "Obstruction
ofRight-of-Way." Because no action wu taken by the property owner to remedy the
violation, the property WU polted and the property owner nodfied that unleu tbe
violation wu corrected within 30 days, a summons to court would be iuued. Following
the postins, Ms . Mouo requested ID ldminilll'ative bearin& u provided by the City
Code . The bearing WU held on July 17, 2002 and the Hearin& Officer ruled that the
condition wu in violation of the City Code and constituted a nui•nce. A copy of the
ruling is attached.
lfMs. Motto does not comply with the postitls order, a IUIIIIIIOlll will be iaued on or
after August 9, 2002, and ID amignmeat date will be Nl within 3().40 days . Followina
ID arraignment. unless Ms . Moao pleads pilty, a court heiring would be Nl within 30-
40 days following the arraignment. At that point the Municipal Judp would bear the
matter and make a ruling.
It should be noted that during the process SUIIIDllliml above, Ms . Mono Im not made
any auempt to clelr the ripl-of-way nor hu she discuued any oda opdon with Code
Enforcement. u:h as an.-to brin& the pn,perty into complilnce OWi' some
period of time, u one of her neighbors had previously llftllled. la &ct. tblt neipbor is
now not complying with his aareed upon IChedule for cla'iDI his ript-of-way. Stiff
believes that he is awaitm& the remit ofMa. Mono's 11t11npt to line die City clelr '-
property .
As Ken pointed out in his memo, there is approximllely 17,000 linear feet offtoalaae,
tolaling about 8 acres ofript-of-way alo• tbis section olHWY 215 11cm. lfCcuncil is
considering cbanain8 the provision of the Code dllt ..... prop11ty °'"*' to amalain
adjacent right-of-way, the increuat City rapomibility and COiia will be lipiftcMt

MEMORANDUM
TO: City Council
THROUGH: Gary Sean, City Manager
FROM: Ken Ross, Director of Public Works
DATE: August 8, 2001
SUBJECT: MAINTENANCE OF STATE HIGHWAYS WITHIN CITY LIMITS
The State Legislature has passed a state statute that mandates that all maintenance of landscaping
street lights, and sidewalks behind the back of curb along state highways are the responsibility of
the local jurisdiction.
Similarly the City Municipal Code does the same thing. by making it the adjacent property
owner's responsibility to maintain the public sidewalk and landscaping in the public right-of-
ways adjacent to their properties.
On Highway 285 there is about 17,000 linear feet offtonaaae in the City ofEnalewood. On
average there is about 20 feet of land behind the back of curb . Which means there are about
eight aaes of COOT right-of-way that by state law and city code mandate adjacent properties
must maintain .
Recently , Code Enforcement has been working with seven property owners to pt them to take
care of weeds, dead trees, and dead branches along HWY 285 . Five of the seven have complied
or are in the process of complying . On one parcel Code Enforc:emeal bu worked out a three-
year phasing plan to accomplish the required measures to bring the property in compliance .
The property owner at Emerson Street and HWY 285 has made several phone calls to the various
representatives to the City complaining about having to be responsible for COOT ROW . Once
her neighbor learned about City staff looking into the situation to clelermine the reuonableneu
of the requirements, the neighbor immediately stepped forward with similar concerns .
Since this is definitely a policy issue, we thought it might be best to dilala the situation with
City Council before proceeding . Dave Lee, &om Parb and Dave Lynn fiom Code Enfoccement
will be joining me , to discuss the situation ll the City Council Study 5-ioa on Auaull 13, 200 I .

RE: Notice of Violation
Mr. Dave Lynn:
STATE OF COLORADO
-
The property at 3588 S. Emerson is Qg! COOT property. I have visited the site
and discovered this portion of right-of-way falls with in the public way of State
Highway 285, and not an excess or remainder parcef owned by COOT.
As you know, Colorado Revised Statute 43-2-135 "Oivieion of Aulhortty over
Streetsft basicaily states; it is the rasponsibility of the local entity to maintain
street right-of-way from back of the curb to the right-of-way line of said strfft.
In this case , it is the local entities responsibility to mow and clean up W9eds
mentioned in the notice.

Subject: Council minutes
I am working on my minutes from the 8/5 council meeting. During Mayor's Choice, they
were talking about a property that the city might clean up and then place a Hen on the
property. It sounded like they called It the "Moto" property. Is that right? Do you know the
address? Thanks for your help.
