(a) Approval of Ordinances on First Reading
(i) Director Olson presented a recommendation from the Department of Safety
Services to adopt a bill for an ordinance authorizing an Intergovernmental Agreement with the State of
Colorado for transfer of State Highway Patrol Cars. Approximately two months ago, he said. A. J.
Guanella, of Bun Chevrolet, came to me with a problem. He explained that over the years they sold,
through State bid, cars to the State Patrol for their use and in return, every once in while they would buy
cars back from the State Patrol which they use for their security fleet down at their lots . Mr. Guanella
thought they were going to do that this year and all of a sudden they found out that State procedures had
changed and the State Patrol could not sell directl y to a private vendor. such as Bun . Mr. Guanella came
down and talked with us and asked if we might be able to help them out. At that point , he said. I got in
touch with City Attorney Brotzman and we contacted the attorney with the State Patrol. We de cided an
IGA was the way to go with this, Director Olson said. so that we would actually purchase the vehicles and
Burt would. in tum. reimburse us for the ve hicles. It would be a pass-through kind of thing with no cost to
us . We thought this was the way to go with this. because Burt has been very cooperative and supponive of
a lot of efforts that we have here in Englewood and. because of the zero cost on this. this would just be a
nice opportunity to kind of help them out. He asked 1f Council had any questions.
Mayor Burns was assured that there would be no financial impact to the City.

(i) Mayor Bums said Alexan finally got their temporary certificate of occupancy
this afternoon. I would personall y like to thank Gary Sears. he said . for some yeoman efforts in the past
few days . There was difficulty with some of the code compliance in the last few days and Mr. Sears drove
all the way back from the Colorado Municipal League Conference in Snowmass on Thursday to have a
meeting on this and then he turned around and drove all the way back on the same da y. That was
wonderful service and, he said. I think Mr . Sears felt that he needed to be here and I think that is true , but
he sure went the extra mile to do it in more ways than one. Ma yo r Bums noted it was quite an effort .
(ii) Mayor Burns advised that the Jul y 4th festivities start at 4 :00 in the afternoon at
the parks, with the fireworks about 9:00 p.m. E\'eryone 1s encouraged to participate . This is a great event
for our City and the cities that share the firework s with us. so invite yo ur friends and neighbors and ha ve a
good time .
(iii) Mayor Bums advised that he. Julie Grazulis and Olga Wolosynjust got back
from the Colorado Municipal League Conference m Sn01•mass . He opined that it was a very good
conference and that there were good sessions . I attended a sess ion on the Mainstreet Project. which nu ght
be available for Englewood . I talked to Barbara Silverman. he said, the lady in charge of that . and It is
primarily used by small communities to try to revitalize downtown areas. but she has been doing some
work in Denver on the Mainstreet Project. Mayor Bums advised that Ms . Silverman sa id she would be
delighted to talk to us about ma ybe working with us for some further developments on Broadwa y on
Englewood . I was very pleased that we got a good re ce ption to that overture and I ga\'e Gary Sear some
materials on that. Mayor Burns noted that the first da y, of the City Attorney's sec tion , was mtegratcd w11h
the rest of the conference and there were some very good sessions on this . Saturday there were maml y
attorneys there . but they had a very good program on conflicts of interest and how tho se are defined when
you represent various boards and commissions in addition to the governing body. I thought 11 was a very
interesting discussion. he said, and it was well done . There were a number of very good programs . One
was "Beyond Parliamentary Procedure", on how to run small meetings without being ued up man awful lot
of rules and regulations . There was an interesting discussion where one attorney was posmg as a city
attorney and the other one was, primarily, an outside defense counsel and they had very different ideas. at
times, about how to go about this . My memo about this conference, he said. is about complete, but I would
encourage anyone who is interested to get a copy of the city attorney 's material because there is an awful
lot in there that I thought was really interesting and useful. Mayor Bums thanked the City for sending him
to the conference.
(iv) Mayor Bums advised that the Metro Mayor's Caucus will be meeting here , for
the second time , in the Community Room. on Friday to discuss primaril y growth control. I am pleased that
we are able to host them again .
(b) Council Member's C hoice
(i) Council Member Grazuhs said she JUSt wanted to say how much she appreciated
being able to go to CML. My report will be forthcoming, she said. but the two sessions she really enjoyed
the most were "Who's running this town, anyway'?" and the sessio n on traffic calming . It was really an
interesting conference . She noted she had a chance to talk to a Littleton citizen yes terda y who found out
that a lot of his people from Littleton had gone. He was going to go ahead and try to make it so they would
never attend another CML conference because he felt it wasted money and they always hold them in such
wonderful areas . Like we choose the areas, she said . I told him what a shame it would be that his City
wouldn't be represented at these conferences, as all of the cities in the State anend. Ms . Grazulis said she
told him that we do mix and mingle. but we also discuss issues with the various cities and you get to
discuss how you solve some of the good things and the bad things . She told him that they are very good
conferences. After he listened to what I said, he decided to withdraw his petition to have everybody be so
accountable that they couldn 't go. Mayor Bums said good for you .

Mayor Bums commented that you really do learn a lot at these conferences, it is very interactive and I find
them very helpful.
(ii) Council Member Wolosyn said she appreciated the opportunity to anend the
conference. I tend to like the sessions that have open questions , she said, instead of the ones that ran le a lot
of info at you . She said she liked the one about the idea of everything being computerized. It was ni ce
because they held a discussion about it in the afternoon and it was a lively discussion. because not
everybody agrees with that. I just like the push and pull of those types of sessions, she said . Ms . Wolosyn
opined that the session about who runs the government was also very interesting . The class made the point
that it is not just City Council, that it is a bunch of organizations and interests and one of Council ·s duties is
to figure out how to balance it . I always like to be left with something I don ·1 feel completely sure about.
she said. and this conference gave me about three sessions like that .
Mayor Bums noted that the talk about who is runnin g the City was give n by John Buecher, former CU
President, and he has been the mayor in Boulder and a council member and he had a lot of thoughtful ideas
about where cities arc going and who is really impacting them . .....
Mayor Bums said that. along that line, he meant to mention that e veryone on Council has received a call on
the possibility of having a vote on the ballot on a turn signal at Oxford . Jo Anne Antoniuk ca lled me too .
he said. but I have not had an opportunity to call her back because I was gone , but 1 am very concerned
about micromanaging the City by having votes on individual tum signals, stop lights , flower beds and
whatever else. He opined that that can just be chaotic . Mayor Bums pointed out that Council ha sn ·1 even
had a chance to get a full report from staff on this and we haven 't ye t turned this lady down and she is
already talking about petitioning. I think we really have to encourage people to work with the Ci ty , he said,
before we start doing that because these arc very expensive measures and I think it is a very great error to
start micromanaging the City that way.
Council Member Bradshaw suggested that maybe we need a citizen 's traffic commission . Mayor Burns
said that might be an idea . He noted we do have a lot of reque sts for individual stop signs at individual
places and we are in the middle of a Comprehensive Traffic Study for the City and I would hope that our
citizens would have enough patience with us that the y would not rush to a ballot box every time they want
something.
Council Member Nabholz pointed out that they have come to us and told us that there are problems at
Dartmouth and Oxford and Kenyon and evidently they don ·1 feel we are listening . So , she said, maybe a
traffic commission would be an answer. Because we keep hearing that we have a traffic study and we are
working on it, she said, and I don 't know how many years I have sq uawked about Dartmouth .
Council Member Bradshaw suggested that perhaps the citizen's traffic commission might consist of
someone from every district or something like that .
Mayor Burns felt that would be a good idea . He noted they would act as sort of a buffer between Council
and the citizens.
Council Member Bradshaw commented that it is not so much that. Council Member Garren said it would
be a recommendation commince. Ms . Bradshaw agreed that it would be a recommendation comminee to
Council. She noted we did it for code enforcement .
Mayor Burns opined that Council does get good staff input from Public Works on these issues when the y
come up . Because , he noted, sometimes people raise a question and when you really analyze it. the facts.
and how it works, things arc a linlc different than you might think .

City Manager Sears advised that Ken Ross would be here Monday night. We did have a conversation with
Ms . Antoniuk and we told her that this issue would be coming before Council Monday night and she said
fine , that she wanted to wait and see. Again. he noted. Council ha sn't had the opportunity to look at the
pros and cons of that. Certainly, he said, a commission that could deal with the traffic is sues would be
good.
Council Member Bradshaw stated that a citizen's traffic commission would have helped with the light rail
and that neighborhood and it would also help with the area around the high school. She noted that just
because she thinks that four way stops at schools are a good idea. it doesn't mean they need to be . She
pointed out that the traffic is not going to diminish in the next eight years . I just think. she said. that that
might be another way to get citizens involved . So. she said, we should think about it.
City Manager Sears said we could provide some information to Council on other communities that ma y
have had established that type of commission, to see all the pros and cons . We can try to pull that together
by Monday. he said, if Council wants that . That could be a part of the transportati on plan that we are
doing. as a recommendation. Mr. Sears noted that he does not know exactly where Carter & Burgess and
Ken Ross are in terms of puning together the information that came from the la st of that series of hearings .
We are looking at doing a follow-up set of hearings with some recommendations. he said. in August. Mr.
Sears advised that he would require that Ken Ross provide that information to Coun c il Monda y ni ght on
where we are going to go with those recommendations . Certainly. he said. "e could find out 1f there are
other communities that have looked at that and could pro\'ide that information .
13 . City Manager's Report
(a) City Manager Sears said he wanted to officially say that Trammel Crow did open their
doors this afternoon and they are moving people in tonight. They have two banks of the building that meet
the Code. There were issues about fire alarms in the stairwell. in particular. in tem1 s of the height of the
stairwells. It was actually the same issue we had with CityCenter. he said. They have complied with that
and Scon McFadden did say, at the meeting. that he was looking to have kind of a grand opening
celebration with the City in August and that he would work with us on doing a Joint . positi\'e event. Ri ght
now they are moving, he said , and they are planning to have quite a few tenants mo ve in within the next
two weekends . Mr. Sears noted that they do have some continuing problems to solve in order to get the
next level open. But, he opined, it is exciting and they are moving in tonight.
Council Member Bradshaw asked if they are ahead of schedule. City Manager Sears said yes , that actually
Mr . McFadden did indicate that they are ahead of schedule and this is one of the fastest proJects they ha ve
put together. Mr. Sears said I think they just got a linle bit ahead of themselves and thi s was a press ure
point meeting because the requirements for this building and these units will then set the tone for all the
units in the rest of the development . So that . he advised. is why it was c ritical and these are tough issues .
For instance , the temperature of water was six degrees over what is allowed , but there is sca lding that
happens beyond a certain point . What we do get ca ught in is what the law says and then how yo u enforce
the law. But overall , he said , I think he thought we were responsive . This is a very complex project. he
said, and I have been told that , on any project , sometimes you will find that the subs don 't talk to the
general contractor. That 's what happens . Mr. McFadden was going to try to develop a little bit better
internal process. But Mr. McFadden said, at the end of meeting Thursday, that he was excited about being
here and he feels good about the future of the project . He has some concerns about their relationship with
Wal-Mart and some of the trash and trucks that are there . but . again , I think those types of issues can be
worked out with his management people and with Wal-Mart . Cny Manager Sears stated that Mr.
McFadden felt this project looked reall y good and he is excited about the tenants that are coming . Overall .
Mr. Sears sai d , I think things are going well .

(a) Joaru1e Antoniuk, 3675 South Cherokee Street. presented a peti tion to C11y Council
regarding traffic conc erns along South Broadway.
Ma yor Bums said we are all curious as to how yo u got tl11 s man y signa ture .
\1 s . Antoniuk said she went eve'Y'' here to ge t them. he aid an ac ~1 dent wa s th e impetus fo r the pe1111 on
she submi tt ed to Englewood City Council. She said she \\JS dnnng nonh on Broad"ay. and entered the
left tum lane to go west on Kenyon. a\\alled the yello" light. then procee ded mto the 1ntersec11on
Unfommately. she said. her car wa s h it and made a 180-degree rum . -he \\JS no t 111Jured 111 th e accident.
she advised. but her car was in the repair shop for two months . Th,, occ urred on January 23 . 2 0 I at ,· I 0
p.m .. j ust as sntdents were di smi ssed from Fl ood l\t1ddle School. It wa s a nuracle tha t no sniJent s \\ere
injured, she said. and she re soh·ed at that time to take ac uon to a,·ert u~h ac ci dent . \\'hen he called the
n·affic engineer of Englewood the fo ll owing day . s he learned that BroaJ\\ay 1s a State l11 gll\\ay That
see med to present an in s um1ountable problem for one c111 ze n to undertake . she said . \I . Anto111uk ,a id her
conscience wo uld not let her re st unul she started the petiuon for left-rum arro" on Broad " a,. She J id
not learn that the City of Englewood is responsible for th e li ght s along Broadwa v t11111 I the end o f \by.
long after s he had started the petuion. Although th e petitions are for Kenyon and Oxford. the d1 stan e fro m
Belleview nort h on Broadway to Hi ghway 2 5 offers dri vers no altemal!\'e for left-hand nirns to go east or
west except on the ye llow light. Traffic on Broadway is horrendous. she assened. and will undoubtedl y
increase when TREX is underway. Signantres to the petition ha,·e been gi ,·en eagerly. and many have
questioned why there are only two avenues on the petitions . Much conce rn ha s been vo iced regarding the
difficulty to get to the re cteat,on center on Oxford from Broadway. The majority of the comments ha ,·e
been in regard to the two busiest avenues, Oxford and Danmouth. she ad,·ise d . She said her effons gleaned
1.169 signanires. and s he also has cop ies of the fifty-five sig na tures co llected by two other perso ns . She
passed out co pies of the addiuonal signatures to Co un cil. 'vi s. Antoniuk advised that Traffic Engmeenng
Analyst Vostry has been very helpful. The statistics re garding traffic co unt and accidents are a,·ailable
from him, she said . The cost of ntm signal s on Broadway 1s very ex pen sive. s he acknowledged. She asked
1f it would be feasible to put this to a vote of the citize ns . One other problem, she obsernd, is that th ere are
only three traffic police officers for th e C ity of Englewood. That seems very inadequate fo r a c 11 y of
30.000, s he opined, when n·affic 1 escalatmg. She commen ded the Ci ty for the present traffic stud y. s inc e
the la st smdy was done in 19 8 . The SI 00 ,000.00 allotted for 11 is a great deal o f mone y. She advi sed that
she has anended four of the meetings and regrets that attendanc e ha been o small. Pe rhap th,· 6·00 p.m .
meetings were a factor for working parents with cluldren, she said, ugge st111g that another lime might be
co ns idered for the Jul y and August meetings . Hopefull y. she said . more c ni zens will panicipate thi s
summer. Ken yon Avenue is the molehi ll. she said. and traffic m Englewood 1s the mountain . She thanked
Co unci l for their consideration. She asked for those persons, "ho came to s upport the petitions, to stand .
Eight perso ns in the audience stood.
Ma yo r Bums thanked Ms . Antoniuk and the o thers who came in suppon . We appreciate your interest 111
this s ubject , he said. We will have some quesl!ons later in the meeung for Publi c Works, he said .

operations here at Civic Center, such as a library. a court, and people who want to do business at Cny Hall.
During that time frame , individuals who wanted 10 do business at City Hall were not able to park here, he
said. Employees who left to attend meetings. or for other reasons, came back to find that they did not ha,·e
a place to park. Granted. thi s 1s something that is goi ng to happen frequently. but. from staffperspecti,·e. at
least. we are a little reluctant to ,·o,d tickets in the parking garage. but cenainl y \\e will lea\'e that decision
to Coun ci l. Mr. Flaherty felt Cushing Park wa another is ue. because. llrgely. Monday through Fnday.
the parking spaces are under-uuliud. unless there ts an evem in the park. On that '.\1onda y. there "'ere no
permi ts issued in the park for the pa,·,hons. so to restnct park mg , for that pamcular evem , he opined. "ould
ha\'e forced people to park in the neighborhoods in north Englewood. Frankly, there were some cars that
were found in the neighborhoods , he added. It 1 a touchy issue. parti cularl y whe n we ha,·e th e currem
problem that we ha,·e with RTD ofnot pro\'ldmg enough parking on a daily basis. at least during the schoo l
year. Right now. during the summer momh . of the 910 spa ces that RTD has available at our parkmg
complex, we are approaching that or maxmg out. basically. and d uring the sc hoo l year, when classes are 111
session at Metro and Arapahoe Community ollege . \\e are at exce s capacity. In terms of the A\'alanche
event , I would want to at leas t ask Coun 11 "hether "e wam to look \'Oidi ng ticket . either at Cu slnng Park
an d/or in the parking garage .
Mayor Bums say he would sy111pa th1 ze "1th u hmg Park more than the parking garage. Another co ncern
about the parking garage 1 1f"e tart ,o,ding tJ c kets there , we are g,vmg RTD an out. \Ve "ould not be
asking them to directl y confront our need for add1t1onal parkmg. But si nce Cushing is not used as mu c h.
and this is an occasional matter. my )111path1e \\Ould be wnh Cus hing Park. much more than wnh the
parking structure, especiall y "hen our 0\\11 employees do not ha\'e a place to park.
City Attorney Brotzman said oun Adnumstrator Wolfe was present, and she is our parking referee . I ca n
tell yo u that these are all good tJ ket , he said. Director Olson's people did a ni ce job. and evel')'\,here
there was a limited parking sign. or a no parkmg sign, the y appropriately issued ticket s . As an anomey, I
have no problem movmg 10 d1 srru ss the tickets . he said, but I am having a logic problem, because th~y
parked in front of a s ign that said four ho ur parkmg. or no parkmg. I see them all the same. in 1111 ins tance.
he stressed . Parks and Recreation ,s actually recommendmg changes to Cushing Park. but fo r that day,
they all look ahke . They all parked ma pace "here th ey "ere not supposed to because there "as hmit~d
parkmg . If ounc,1 \\Ould hke for me 10 disrruss the. then l would like 10 dismiss them all evenhand edl y.
he said . I under tand that in the furure we would like to preser\'e parking here . he said . I guess I ha\'e a
problem for that day.
Mayor Bums said people say well . if yo u inrne us to use the hght rail . it ,s your problem ifwe don't ha ve a
place to park, and we rum to RTD and express the same )mpathy. but it 1s our name on the ticket and we
get the heat. RTD doe s not address the problem as well as we wo uld lik~ them to, so it does put
Englewood in the middle. Mayor Bums said he understood what it y Attorney Brotzman was saying , from
a legal perspective these all look alike. It still puts us in a difficult 1ruat1on beca u e there 1s no ready
solution to this problem, he said .
Ci ty Attorney Brotzman asked Court Adrrumstrator \Volfe how mu ha parking 11cke1 ,s . ;o..1 s. Wolfe said
the y would be S 15 .00 each.
Council Member Yurchick said that is about the same pnce n would cost to park do"'ll!own .
Council Member Garren said someone told him the y were w1lhng to pay a u cket here because it was
cheaper than going downtown to park. When the Avs and the Rockies were playing the same night. u wa s
amazing how the price went up in LoDo, be o bser\'ed.
Council Member abholz felt we would be sending a mixed message . Director Olson and lus people are
doing a good job ticketing these people. Yes it is a once in ma ybe se\'eral yea rs e,ent. but Jt is a mixed
message to say okay, we ·11 let you go. She said she has a problem with that.

Approval for Electrical
Rehabilitation of the Mclellan
Pump tation
INITIATED BY
Utilities Department Stewart H . Fonda . Director of Utilities
COUNCIL GOAL AND PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION
The original Mclellan pump station was constructed in 1964.
RECOMMENDED ACTION
The Utilities staff recommends Council approval by motion of the electrical rehabilitation of th e
Mclellan Pump Station to Ryal! Electric in the amount of 535 ,340 and Mountain Pea k Co ntrols, Inc.
in the amount of $37,3 46 for a total of $72,686.
BACKGROUND, ANALYSIS, AND ALTERNATIVES IDENTIFIED
Due to heavy use in the last few yea rs and the age oi the eq uipmen t, major upgrades are necessary
for the pump station if it is to remain in operation. This pump stati on is used to supply th e demands
of the City of Englewood and provide our contractual water supply to Highlands Ranch and
maintain this revenue-generating source. On June I a maj or short de\eloped in th e number one
motor starter which destroy ed the disconnect power switch and criti ca l w irin g. An operat o r
working at the site was nearly injured trying to reset the disconnect breaker when th e short
occurred. Because of the age of the equipment, satisfactory parts and pieces could not be found to
repair the damage. A certified electrician inspected the motor control ce nter and deemed that the
entire unit was a saiety hazard and should be repla ce d as soon as possible . Th e rehabilitation will
bring the facility up to code and coincide with the existing equipment at the Allen Filter Plant. Both
contractors had been used v arious times for repairing Allen Plant eq uipment.
FINANCIAL IMPACT
Due to the emergency nature of the repair, sole source bids were received. Allen Bradle y (Rya ll
Electric ) provided a bid in the amount $35 ,340. for a m o t or co ntrol cen ter which w ill include
cabinets, buss bars, lighting panel with transformer, soft starters and new disconnects for the whole
panel and each motor. Mountain Peaks Controls, Inc. provided a bid in amount of $37,346. for
demolishing the old unit and installing the new unit and wiring. Both bids total $72,686.

RE : South Plane River/Santa Fe Corridor Open Space Plan
Dear Ms . Dannemiller:
Pursuant to your request. enclosed please find Wenk Associates' standard contract form . As we have not had occasion to use
it in some time, I took the liberty of reviewing it against the contract document offered by our professional association
(American Society of Landscape Architects) for members' use . The provisions of our contract are consistent with that
standard, so hopefully it will suffice for your contracting needs on the South Plane project .
Following are additions to the Englewood scope :
I . The site analysis will be based on existing available information : the City will be responsible for assembling all existin g
information , and will provide it to Wenk Associates. Wenk Associates will provide the City a list of desired information .
We assume that G .I.S. information will be provided by Arapahoe County, and that little if any of the analysis information
will need to be digitized .
2. We assume that the City will organize. prepare notices for . arrange meeting places. and otherwise facilitate public and
steering committee meetings.
3. Our scope is based on a total number of meetings as described in our proposal. We assume that the City and Wenk
Associates may jointly agree to change the type of meetings held to meet the specific needs of the planning process.
4 . Our proposal assumes that the final repon includes a compilation of only the sketch graphics prepared as pan of the
planning process. and brief written summaries of each subject area identified in the proposal. Graphics in addition to th ose
prepared as pan of the planning process may require renegot iations of our scope. We assume the repon will be approximate I~
20 pages in length , including reductions of graphics .
We look forward to working with you on this important project. If there is anything else you need to initiate a
contract, please do not hesitate to cal I.
Sincerely,

Project Context and Overview
The City of Englewood is preparing to create a Park , Trail and Open Space Plan
(herein called Plan ) for the South Platte River and Santa Fe Corridor within the c ities of
Englewood and Sheridan . The Plan will provide a publicly supported vision, which guides
trail enhancements, recommends park/open space acquisitions, improve recreational
opportunities, and protects riparian habitats. The Plan will become part of the En glewood
Comprehensive Plan.
The South Platte River Greenway extends approximately 35 miles from Chatfi eld
Dam into Adams County . Regionally, the South Platte Greenway has tak en o n new life as
communities such as Denver and Littleton have reclaimed the river and enhan ced
sustainable development. Englewood is interested in maintaining the momentum started bv
these communities, so this entire greenway corridor is protected.
With the opening of the RTD Southwest Corridor Light Rail , opporturnt,es fo r
adjacent land use redevelopment along this corridor are abundant. Realizin g that m any
uses currently bordering the waterway may be inconsistent as recreational us es and wi th
changes associated with transit oriented dev elopment. change in thi s industrial co rri dor w ill
be welcomed by the stewards of the water and land . The need to protect and enh ance th e
natural resource, recreational and open space amenities is critical, as parcels becom e
available for red eve lopment. The mission of the project will be to position th e South Pl att e
River corridor, as it winds through Englewood and Sheridan . as a natural reso urce worth of
protection for the improvement of the quality of life for both local and re gio nal users .
Funding This project is made possible through a grant from Great Outdoors Colorado Trust
Fund , the City of Englewood , and Arapahoe County Community Development Block Grant
funds. The project total budget is limited to $51 ,000.
Public Objectives
Realizing the valuable natural resource that the South Platte River provides to the
communities of Englewood , Sheridan and the South metro-Denver area, this projec t ai ms to
develop a long-range v ision for the parks , open space and trails along th e South Platte
Riv er/Santa Fe Corridor. The multi-objective project will look at the co rridor as a co mplete
re c reational system . To this end, the goals of the project are comprehensive and will
address planning for four primary outdoor amenities :
• Parks -active recreational areas such as so ccer fields , playgrounds and
limited passive natural areas
• Trail Enhancements -access , safetv and m ai ntenan ce improvements
• Open spaces · passive recreation , wildliie preservation and
environmental education
• Riparian Habitats -aquatic and watershed habitat protection

OPE N S PACE PLA N
Wenk Associates Inc. is pleased to submit this proposal to develop a vision for the redevelopment oi the Santa Fe/Platte
River corridor. With vision and foresight , and guided by a plan that has broad communi ty support, the corridor can become
an integral part of the future for the communities of Englewood and Sheridan.
Our reading of the RFP suggests three broad goals: (I) to increase the re creational potential for th e corrid or; (2) to preserve
critical natural areas and protect water quality; and (3) to encourage land uses that are more compatible with rec rea ti onal
goals and that revitalize selected segments of the corridor. To achieve these goals and realize the corridor 's full potential. a
strong Plan should be guided by the following three principles.
• The plan must enhance and build upon the corridor's phys ical qualities. Maintaining the Platte River 's floodplain
and flood control function is an essential foundation of the plan , but should not limit the corridor's rec reational
and wildlife habitat potential.
• Economic development and preservation and rehabilitation of the river corridor need not be conflicting goals. but
rather each can and should enhance and reinforce the other. Improved water quality can increase th e recrea ti onal
potential of the corridor, as can encouraging more compatible land uses.
• The plan making process must facilita te broad support from varied constituents, from the general public to
specific agency partners to abutting landowners.
Wenk Associates is known nationally fo r the redevelopment of urban waterways and for our creative responses to
integrating recreation and natural areas. We have planned and built over a dozen regional and local greenway and trails
systems, including the Sand Creek Greenway. the St . Vrain Greenway. and the Big Dry Creek trail system . We have re stored
urban stream corridors to recreation al an d ci ,•ic use, including Cherry Creek in downtown Denver, the Blue River in
Breckenridge, and Westerly Creek at the new Lowry community, whi ch forms the spine of that parks system. We have
designed two parks along the restored Platte River in Denver, and are completing that City's parks, trails. and nat ural areas
master plan which extends projects already in place along the Platte. Our firm is also known for work in urban waterway
mixed use redevelopment. Projects incl ud e a community housing project within the Santa Fe /Platte Corridor in the City of
Littleton ; a redevelopment plan for the Shingle Creek Corridor for the City of Brooklyn Park (MN); a redev elopment plan
for the Near Northside/Bassett Creek area of Minneapolis; and the Vista Village (CA) redevelopment plan .
Clarion Asso ciates , a national land use consulting firm with emphasis in natura l resource protection. open space pl an s,
co rridor plans, development financing, and zoning and regulatory actions, will lend expertise in formulating a land use pl an
for the corridor that encourages uses compatible with recreation and preservation goals and that may st im ulate selected
redevelopment of the corridor consistent with a recent market analysis study. Firm staff will also lead dev elopment of a n
implementation strategy. Wright Water Engineers will be responsible for the assessment of existing natural areas, wildlife
habitat, and water quality considerations, and will advise the team on potential conflicts between plan proposals and federal
and state natural area and environmental regulations. As consulting engineers the firm will also advise on matters relating to
channel morphology and hydrology .
Our team would very much like to assist the City of Englewood and its strategi c partners on this important corridor
revitalization project! Please let us know if we can answer any further questions regarding our proposal.

C H ALL£N GE # l :
The river offers the opportunity to become a recreational and open space "seam" that improves both
communities' quality of life and, that generates redevelopment at its edges.
A. Evaluate existing waterway and natural resource opporruniries and constraints.
1. Identify natural areas that should be preserved and enhanced.
2. Evaluate maintenance and channel stability issues to identify potential funding partners and river enhance-
ments.
3. Evaluate the potential to extend "fingers" of Open Space into the community ro more srronglv link exi sting
and potential neighborhoods to the river.
8 . Evaluate the starus of current land uses in the adjacent corridor.
l. Do a "hard /soft" analysis to identify stable areas, and those ready for redevelopment.
2. Identify patterns of land use and ownership to evaluate options for different types and SC!lle oi
redevelopment.
3. Evaluate the road and transit network to identify deficiencies and opportunities fo r red evelopment :is "ell as
potential multimodel access.
C . Develop corridor concepts that integrate river protection and enhan cement with redevelopment opporruni ries .
C ALLE GE#2:
The character of the corridor changes dramatically through the study area. The expansive natural quali-
ties of the river south of Hampden contrast with the channelized, road-confined portion of the river
corridor to the north.
The planning process should uniquely address the particular issues and opportunities of each portion of rhe co rridor.
To the south the river's narural qualities and un channelized character suggest re creation and o pen space iss ue s and
opportunities that are significantly different that the north where the river access is constrained and incom patibl e
uses predominate.
I. Hold focused work.shops with agency partners to explore the varied potential of each segment of the co rridor .
2. Emphasize and embrace their differences for example, the northern portion might emphasize its urbanity,
encourage development at the edge and encourage better access to the edge . In contrast. the sou thern portion
might discourage pedestrian access in contained areas.
CHALLENGE #3:
The Plan must recognize and be coordinated with changing land use patterns along the corridor.
-•
Development patterns along the South Plane River / Santa Fe Corridor are likel y to undergo signifi c:mt changes
over the next decade. in response to market opportunities created by the light rail orridor and other market
factors . Our ream will work closely with the City and other key stakeholders to ensure that the land uses and
policies in the Corridor Plan respond to market forces but also capitalize on recreational opportunities. give
direction to bett er leverage access ro the river as well as prote<.'t riparian habitat.

C ALLE N GE #4 :
A number of related project area planning studies and river maintenance projects that could influence
the outcome of the plan have been completed, or are in progress; projects in process will need to be
closely coordinated with the corridor open space plan to achieve synergy.
Use past planning work in the area as a beginning point for the corridor plan. If other plans are in progress,
collaborate to ensure that they reinforce the goals of the corridor plan. Key collaborations will include :
1. The transportation study currently in progress. The team would explore a range of issues and opportunities
with the transportation consultant and city staff. Improving road access , for example , to largely inaccessible
areas south of Hampden Avenue could be important to redevelopment efforts. To the north of Hampden
Avenue, removal of portions of roads lining both sides of the river, as Denver has done at Gr ant Frontier Park.
could improve river access and redevelopment potential.
2. The economic/market analysis for the Santa Fe Corridor that has recently been completed. The findings of
the study should be a basis for land use recommendations; uses identified through the corridor planning
process not included in Economic Analysis should be reviewed with the reports author to determine compatibil -
ity with the city's long-term goals.
3. Army Corps of Engineers plans for river channel maintenance of rip-rapped banks and kay ak/drop stru c-
tures. Although the Urban Drainage District opposes it, the Army Corps of Engineers is advocating removal of
vegetation on the riverbanks in the study area, and the modification of drop structures to provide greater stabi 1-
ity. The process proposed for this study will identify potential conflicts and benefits of the work and propose
approaches that support the goals of the corridor project .
4. The planned TOD development along the light rail line at Linleton Boulevard . This project could influen ce
plans for development at the Oxford Street Station. Work should be coordinated to identify the potential for
development complementary to the Oxford Street Station.
5. South Suburban's Plans for "soft" trail. The South Suburban Recreation District is planning a wsoft" pedestri-
an trail paralleling the existing concentric trails from the Denver city limits south to the Platte Park . The trail
alignment should become an integral part of the corridor plan.
CHALLENGE # 5:
A strong base of community and agency partner support will be required to ensure approval and
provide momentum for implementation.
•
Because such a large number of community and agency partners must participate in the plan, outreach and
involvement of these groups must be structured to maximize their contributions in issue areas where they are
critical .
We have proposed a tiered public outreach process that identifies three onstituent segments, with varying levels of
involvement:
1. "Core" steering committee members-e.g. City of Englewood and Sheridan Community Development staff.
South Suburban Arapahoe County-these staff will participate regularly in plan development and review. Four
full meetings of hte core steering committee are planned.
2. Steering committee resource members.-individuals who will make selected technical contributions to the
project effort and will be called upon as needed (e.g. Planning and Zoning, Public Works). These resource
members will be invited to core steering committee meetings or partnering workshops as appropriate.
3. Agency partners--e.g. RTD, Urban Drainage , Cities of Denver and Littleton , Army Corps of
Enginee-nvisioned as participating in specialized workshops that will cover their geographic or regulatory
areas of jurisdiction. Four partnering workshops will be held. In addition, a meeting of agen cy partners will be
held to achieve consensus on their roles and responsibilities for implementation .

The proposed redevelopment of a vacant 1960s era sho pping center in Brooklyn
Park, an older first ring suburb in the North Central Minneapolis metro area,
prompted the city ro retain Wenk Associates as parr of an urban design team 10
propose the redevelopment plan . The City saw the potential of Shingle C ree k. a
channelized stream hidden behind the center, to serve as a recreation and open
space focus for redevelopment.
Proposed concepts saw the the Cree k as an open space spine linking different uses within a mixed use town center.
Proposals focus on maximizing the natural and recreational potential of water. An urbane stream edge links th<" cree k to the
commercial core. More naturalized portion of the corridor are dedicated to habitat enhan cement. and improvement ot
water quality.

The closure of Stapleton Airport created the opportunity to develop a regional greenway along Sand Creek that would
connect the eastern fringes of the metropolitan area to the Platte River. Working collaboratively, the ci ties o f Denver,
Commerce City, and Aurora retained Wenk Associates and a team of ecologisrs. hydraulic engineer , and designers to
develop a comprehensive greenway plan for the Sand Creek orridor. The plan addressed the potential of the corridor as
critical wildlife habitat, and as a major recreational resource linking the Highline Canal and drainageways in the eastern part
of the cities ro the Platte River. Specific recommendations for trail heads and visitor facilities , and for interpretive elements
high lighting the corridor 's wildlife, scenic, and historic resources , were proposed with the active involvement of the publi c
and various constituent groups. The master plan d001mcnt has enabled comprehensive, mulri-jurisdict.ional planning and
management oi this important natural resource, as well as guiding design and construction of numerous trail segments along
the corri dor.

URE A, 1 v A C::2 /A R ~STORATl
Wenk Associates led a ream engineers and
ecologists to develop a park and parkway spine, centered on a restored creek that has been buried si nce the rurn -of-the-
century, that will form the core o f a new community of 900 residential units on a 120 acres site near d o wntow n
Minneapolis. Schemes to restore habitat, and ro treat stormwater from the watershed for point-source-po llu tants are an
integral pan of park proposals.
Wenk Associates developed co nce pts fo r
redevelopment in areas adja cent t o the floodplain on the site of a vacant rail yard adjacent ro the Los Angeles River in
Central Los Angeles. Californ ia. Open space concepts included restoration of riparian plant commun ities. dev elo pment of
athleti c fields , and integrati on of a small tributary channel into proposed mixed-use development.
Wenk Associates developed conce pts to in tegrate pro posed
downtown redevelopment sc hemes into a restored creek that had been channelized when the area originally developed.
Wenk Associates led a team of engineers and ecologists to restore the
Blue River in downtown Breckenr idge as the focus for the town 's ceremonial and cultural activiti es . Water quality and
habitat improvements were a sign ifican t part of the effort. Today the Walkway is the heart of the community 's public li fe
and has fostered the re vi talization of the Downtown area.
Wenk Associates led a team of engineers to develop a multip le us e t rail
corridor and a series of small urban spaces by removing sections o f walls in the channelized portion of Cherry C reek in
downtown Dem•er.
L AND USE PLANNING A.J'\10 IMPLEMENTATION STRATE G IES
Clarion Associate s led a consult ing team that
included Wenk Associates and Dames & Moore Environmental Services to identify public values for an area of north ern
Douglas County conduct environmental and visual analysis , project development pressures and develo p an implementation
strategy for preserving those aspects of the high plateau area that are most valued b y the citizens of Douglas Co unt .
Pr incipals of Clarion prepared a comprehensive plan and implementation
ordinances for the area surrounding Denver International Airport. The resulting plan identified key parcels and assigned
implementation responsibility ro participating jurisdictions and was adopted by the Denver, Aurora. Brighton , Commerce
City and Adams County. Implementation tools included zoning regulations, impact fees , and land acquisition . Both efforts
won statewide awards from the Colorado Chapter of the American Planning Association.
Clarion Associates is assisting
the City of Englewood in a comprehensive, two-phase update of its Development Code. The first phase consists of a
reorganization of the Code to eliminate inconsistencies and redundancies and to make the code more user-fr ie ndly. The
second phase includes substantive changes to the Code and an extensive public partic ipation process. One other important
new addition ro the Code is a transit-oriented development (TOD) overlay district that will ensure appropriate development
around Englewood 's new transit stations along the Santa Fe light rail line .
When it
opened in 1968 . Cinderella City was the largest enclosed shopping mall west of the Mississippi River, but its 1.3 million
square feet of retail space now lies vacant. Clarion Associates was selected to head a team to advise the City of Englewood

R E CREA T IO AL A 1't E J IT IES P
The clos ure of Stapleton Airpo rt and Lo wr y Air Fo rce Base prese nted the
opportunity to develop Westerl y Creek. which passes through both Lowry and Stap leton. as an open space and recrea ti on
corridor linking Sand Creek to the Highline Canal. The cities of Denver and Aurora. together with the Lowr y and Stapl eton
redevelopment authorities, retained Wenk Associates to formulate a restoration plan for the Westerl y C reek Corr idor. Key
features of the plan included the daylig hting of Westerl y Creek through portions of th e red evelo p ~ent sites ; strategies fo r
mitigating flood hazards in established neighborhoods of Aurora; regional trail linkages to Sand C reek and the H ighl ine
Canal ; and water quality and habitat improvements.
Wenk Associates designed and
implemented two major City of Denver parks along the restored Pla tte Riv er. Grant Frontier Park was expanded th rough
removal of an adjace nt roadway, affording substantially impro"ed neighborhood access to th e riv er or rido r as well a mo re
suitable habitat. Northside Park. located on the South Platte River in Globeville , adapted and re-used a tormer wastewat e r
rreaunent plant to create a neighborhood park and wild life preserve , saving the City an estimat ed 30 per em in d emolitio n
costs. The project rece ived an Honor Award from the Colo rad o Cha pter. American Societ y of Land sca pe Archi t e ts I 999

The St. Vrain River, ha d long been an und er-ut il ized re sou rce Ii ned with
industrial uses, with its aquati c capa ity depleted by irrigation demands. T he City of Lo ngmont retained Wenk Associates to
develop a comprehensive greenway plan that wou ld transform the St . Vra in into an am e nity for City residents. The plan
addressed the restoration of the river corridor from water qual ity and habitat perspectiv es; addressed co mmunity access and
recreation; proposed public art and innovative interpretive elements to comm un ica t e the corridor·s natural and c ultural her-)
itage; and proposed image and identity graphics that would help make the river a focal point fo r the commun ity. To date ,
Wenk Associates has overseen construction of fi ve segments of greenway and trail corridor in the past six years. The project
also received the Honor Award for Design in the 1998 Colorado Chapter of American Societ y of Landscape Architects
design competition.

PUBLIC FACILITATION
Wenk Associates has been engaged to develop a new master plan for the City's parks, recreational amenities, trails, and nat-
ural areas that will provide both a broad 50 year vision that extends this great sy stem 's legacy. as well as strategy and tactics
fo r implementation over the next five to 10 years. Mandated by the City's Comprehensive Plan, the project draws upon an
extensive publi c outreach effort to the City's varied communities, organized user groups, and important segments of the
user population , that encompasses surveys, focus groups, web based communications. nine public forums. and direct out-
rea h to certain neighborhoods and interest groups. When completed in late 2001, the Plan will provide clear ph ys ica l and
policy direction that will dovetail with the City 's Land Use and Transportation Plan , currently in development.
The closure of Stapleton Airport created the opportunity to develop a
regional greenway along Sand Creek that would connect the eastern fringes of the metropolitan area to the Platte River .
