Senior PlaMer Sun . who wa dul y sworn . advised that th e topic tonight"" a re, 1s1on to the sign standard s
of the Engl ewood To"11 e nter PCD. The PlaMmg Co1TU11.1ss 1on considered 1l11 s proposed amendmenl a1 a
publi c heanng and their recommendauon wa s for approval. wi th transmi ssion on to C 11 y Coun c il for final
action . Mr. tin presented Proofof Publicauon of th e 'otice of Publi c Hearin g m 1he Eng le"ood Herald
on August 11. 2000 . At the time the Englewood To\\11 Center Planned Umt De,elopment "" appro ,ed.
he sa id , we were unsure exactly what type of tenants would be pamcipat mg m the redev e lopment of1he
C mderella Ci ty si te , and . as such, we adopted the sign standards of o ur zomng ordmance As 1h e
development moved along. he explained. we began to realize th ose sign standards were 1101 go mg 10 be
adequate for the type of development that Englewood To\\11 Center. or, as 11 ,s no" alkd. C 11 y( e n1 ,·r
Englewood, would tum into . We chose to retain a consultant to help review s1gna ge 111 1he me tro area . and
specifically for tlu s sue , he sa id. and ha ve developed a se t of regulauo ns that "e belie, e are cream e an d
will c reate the type of signage that compliments the type s of development th al "e are see mg no " a,
CityCenter. Mr. St itt advised that. principall y, thi s set of re gulanons 1dentifie four l)'J)C> o f de ta il or
commercial development Mthm the center nse lf. Most of th e regulano ns be for e o un 11 ar e take n as a
base from the existing sign code and have been revised to refl ec t the ty'J)e of de, e lopment that "e ha, e h,·,e
at C ityCenter. The depanure these regulations present . he aid. are m tem,s o f the types o f 1gnag e th at a rc
allowed, and the maMer in which the sign area 1s calc ulated . Specifi call y. "e ha,e four t)'J)e of
development this code anticipates. and those are based on sizes . he said . We ha,e "hat "e call 1 ype A.
which is a de velopment of 50.000 square feet m area or greater. Fo r mstan ce . 1hat \\Oulu be 1he Wal -~1an
site, which is the greatest user on the si te . The ne xt ca tegory 1s T)'J)C B, he contmued. "h1,·h ra nge fr o m
20,000 square feet to 49,999 square feet . Ty'J)C ranges from 10 .000 10 19 .999 square fe e t an d ·1 )l'e D. 1h e
smallest type. is up'to 9.999 square feet. he sa id . We have pro\'1ded. m the regula1,ons . -ome e,ample, of
how the signage would be applied. Two facets of these regulations are most mt erestmg . he said One ha,
to do with the letter size for the individual development types . We ha"e Type A developments whi ch all o "
a ninety-six inch capital letter with all other letters m th e name at Se\'enty-t wo inches. You nught ha"e a
sign on the face ofa building. for instance , Wal-Man could ha,e nmety-s1x inch hi gh c a p11al lett e rs. Th e ir
sign, howeve r, will not be that large . The Type B development . which 1s 20.000 to 49.999 square feet ,
allows a forty-eight inch capital letter with other letter no greater than forty mc he s. he adv1 ed . Th e 'I )'PC
Callows forty-two inch capital letters and the remammg letters at thiny-four inches. wh il e Type D all o "
twenty-four inch ca pital letters and eightee n mch rema mm g le tter s. That is imponant. because mos , of the
types of signage that we \\ill have m thi s development will be Oat-panel signs hke thi s, however. thi s
panicular s ign regulation encourages what we ca ll volume signs.
Mr. Sutt said he would like to present a piece of infom1ation from the Code to be tt er ex plam ho" volume
signs work. Us ing the document camera. Mr. Stitt said , for the purposes of di sc ussion. he would hk e 10 use
the example that is in the regulations themselves. We have here a cube with the following dimensions : n 1s
four feet by three feet by five feet , he said . The four foot dimension is across the bottom axis , the five fool
dimension is from top to bottom, and the three foot dimension is from front to back . Because we want to
encourage signs that are three dimensional , we are giving essentially a credi t for three-d,men sional sign s.
If yo u would compare thi s sign. face B, for instance , is four feet b y fiv e feet. or twenty square feel. What
we have done in these regulations is to only count the largest face . So in thi s example, face B would be
twenty square feet. Faces C and A would be fifteen square feet , so this sign would only account for twenty
square feet . The advantage of doing that is , rather than count all the si des that are visi ble, which m th,

case would be t"enty for 8 . and fifteen for A and C. so if yo u counted the three ,de tha t we ha,·e
illustrated here . you would have fifty sq uare feet of sign area . but. m fact . we are onl y cou nt mg th e larges t
face. which is twenty square feet. So there ,s an mce ntive . he said. for someone to put up a volume sign
that would have exposure on more than one face. but only count as twenty square feet. For example. a
twenty square foot flat panel sign obviously has only one face. whereas. a volume sign that has its large t
face twenty square feet. in this example , actually has a lot more surface that ca n be re ad. In esse nce. 1f yo u
take a look at this podium and envmon s1gnage on all three sides. we would only count the larges t face
against the allotted signage for that pan1cular busine ss . It encourages more creative type s of s1gnage . he
said. That panicular aspect 1s quite umque . he said. opinmg that there are not very many places in the
metro area that consider volume signs in qune the sa me way .
Mr. Stitt said regulations are qune dry. and do not reall y give a se nse of what we are trying to achieve . so
we have included . in the packet. mformation on vario us types of sign s. Mr. Stitt showed various examplt's
on the document camera . He a,d he would be keeping a notebook of s1gnage that exemplifies what we are
trying to accomplish here at C 1tyCenter. He showed two examples of a residential entry sign which wa s an
awning-type sign over an entryway. These are examples of signage in Denver. he sa id . He showed another
example where there 1s signage on three sides of the sign . He said we want to encoura ge proJectmg sign .
and there "~II be ample opponunity for even the small retailers to have these types of signs. becau e the
type of development that we have is as much pedestrian oriented as it is auto onented. espec ially on
Englewood Parkway. Another category sign is a blade sign. which is very smular to a proJectmg sign.
except we have only one connecuon to the wall. and that is known as an armature . The e are genera ll y
smaller scale signs . he aid, but would fit in nicel y with some of the smaller retail. Mr. S un hO\, ed an
example of a proJectmg ,·olume sign. In this case. there are only two faces . he said. but 1f we were
calculatmg the area that would be attributable to this sign. we would onl y co unt the area on o ne of th e
largest faces . In effect, this sign gets twice as much coverage for only half as much sign area. he sa id .
Mr. Stitt showed some examples of what we do not want to see . He showed an example of Goo Ga La
Doos III Denver. Although it is not quite apparent in this image. he said. there are seve ral different type of
signs at work here . in fact they are competing against one another. Yo u have the neon lett ers at the top.
you have a projecting sign. you have a sign on an awning. and. not quite visi ble in thi s image . there are al so
signs on the "indows. We believe this type of signage is overkill. he said, confuses the pubhc and does not
do anything to enhance the look of the building , so that would be prohibited We have another example of
excessive signage in Jamba Juice on the Sixteenth Street Mall , he said . Agam, yo u ·ve got signage . wall
signage or flat panel signage on two faces . there is signage in the "i ndows. and if you were to look up
above the first floor . you would see a projecting sign . That type of signage is overpowering for the space 11
is in and our design standards in this set of regulations would not allow such a combination. he said . Mr.
Stitt showed an example of excessive signage area and volume in the Ro ss Dre ss for Less store on the
Sixteenth Street Mall. You have a projecting sign on the comer. We would encourage that type ofs,gn. by
the way. it is not that we are prohibiting those , it is just that , in combination with the re st of thi s. 111
overpowering. We have signage on each of the windows. there is signage on the faces of the a,mings, as
well as in the lower Mndows. Mr. Stitt said his only thought here is that the people who run this bus111es s
want to make ure everyone knows it is Ross , and he felt one or two signs would ha ve accomplished th at.
Showing a picture of almost everyone 's favorite coffee shop. Starbuck 's, Mr. Stitt said this is a good
example of how to use a combination of signa_ge that does not overpower. What we have in thi s case ,s a
blade sign on two comers. as well as awning signage, and incidental signage in the windows . advenising
products they have available, which 1s tastefully done and in scale with the development . Like"~se. m the
regulations themselves , we have some examples of types of signage we would like to see . This is reverse
channel letters that are halo illuminated, so the neon is behind the letter. In the daytime , yo u would see the
"G" in Guarantee Bank, but at night , because the neon is behind it , it glows . We encourage neon, but thi s
set of regulations does not prefer exposed neon only, or what is known as skeleton neon. In this case , we
have neon enclosed in a recessed metal channel , and this is the type of signage we would encourage . Mr.
Stitt showed another example of internally lit neon, Mth the name routed into the panels . Combinations of
letters and graphics are acceptable in this, in fact it makes a very striking sign in the daytime and in the

evening with the back-lit letters, he said. Also on the document camera, Mr. Stitt sho "·ed an e xa mple that
was prepared by the consultant to show what you could do with a projecting volume sign . In th is case . th e
way the staff would calculate the area that would be charged for this s ign is j ust to insc ribe the sign in th e
volume shape, whether rectangular, cubic or even round for that matter. and calculate the area o f th e la rge t
face . The blade signs are very appropriate for the type of de velopment we are goin g to ha,·e. he sai d.
Another thing we want to encourage is canopies, and this code would allow either a name or a logo on each
canopy that a building might have. The types of businesses we anticipate locattng on Eng le wood Parkw ay
could very effectively take advantage of this type of signage, he said. With this set o f regulatt ons . "e
believe we have been able to provide the retailers and commercial tenant s of th is deve lo pment wuh some
basic signage that allows them to advenise and identify themselves as well as a creat ive edge that
contributes to the overall aesthetic of the development. Mr. Stitt asked if there we re any quest io ns .
Mayor Bums asked if there has been any feedback on some of the proposal s mentioned toni ght. fr om so me
of the retailers corning in and submitting sign proposals.
Mr. Stitt said there have been two responses. We spoke with the Wal-Man peo ple earl y o n about the
signagc, and these regulations were designed to accommodate what they were pro posing. Also. in rev is in g
these regulations, we have talked with the Office Depot people about what they wo uld see as appropria te
for their size building. These regulations have been re viewed b y Miller We ingane n and have been used as
pan of their marketing strategy. so we belie ve that all the tenants th ey ha ve contacted are aware o f th ese
signage regulations. From the feedback that we have gotten so far , there does not seem to be any pro blem
with complying with these regulations. he said.
Mayor Bums said Wal-Man is supposed to open in fifteen days . He asked if they have a sign that is be in g
fabricated and approved. Mr. Stitt said a permit was issued for all their s ignage on the building. and that
has been at least two or three weeks ago . They have some ofthetr s tgnage up . but it may be a while . rig ht
down to the wire. before they have all their signage up before they open, he said .
C ouncil Member Yurchick asked what happens if the sign does not meet the dimensions set out. He asked
if the design review board has the right to approve something. Mr. Stitt said the design review board has
the ability, not to override the regulations, but to suggest revisions to the proposed sign that brings it more
in confonnance. We always have the Board of Adjustment and Appeals if a panicular busine ss feel s th at
the amount of signage these regulations provide is not adequate. Based on the input from the consultant
and his team's experience in designing signage for commercial developments, he said. we feel thi s ,s mo re
than adequate, in fact, it gives an incentive to those businesses that want to be a bit mo re c reative in th ei r
signage.
Mayor Burns asked if there was anyone else who would like to speak re garding s ignage. There wa s no one .

regarding holiday decorations being displayed for not more than sixty da ys , she asked 1f there is any type of

City Manager Scars said he really did not know, but he could investigate it . Residential zones have
different regulations than business zones, he said .

is excellent. Council has given a lot of suppon to staff for the work they have done this la st year. He said
he just wanted to thank Council personally for working with them.
(b) City Manager Sears reminded Council that the City Picnic would be thi s coming Friday
at 11 :00 a .m. until 3:00 p .m . at Cushing Park .
• * •••
Council Member Wolosyn said she had one thing to bring up . The Cultural Ans Commission Exploratory
Committee is working on the Ans Center. We are going to use an Ans Counsel to help us. she advised , to
put together a board.
City Attorney Brotzman said this is a request for a non-profit attorne y to help form the add111onal
exploratory non-profit . If Council has a consensus on hiring another outside attorne y. he \\Ould tak e care
of that out of his budget.
Mayor Bums asked if that was the request being made now . City Attorney Brotz man said yes .
Council Member Yurchick asked for clarification on who we would be hiring thi s attorne y for. Ms.
Wolosyn said it would be for the C ultural Ans Commission and Exploratory Conmtinee. She sa id she did
not have any objections to waning until after they give their presentation on the 25th . which 1s what he
originally intended.
Council Member Nabholz asked if they currently have an attorney. Ms . Wolosyn said no, the y do not.
City Attorney Brotzman s:11d this would be for formation of a non-profit. Council Member Wolosyn sa id
the attorney would basically assist in filing some paperwork so we do not do anything \\Tong .
Council Member Yurchick asked why it was the City's responsibility to hire this attorney. Ci ty Anorney
Brotzman said. basically, because we are going to work on joint projects . lfwe work on joint projec ts. the
Finance Dcpanment"s auditors are going to want to see their books and their IR S regulations . Secondari ly,
if we begin accepting money. we want to make sure that the money coming in, whether it goes to the City
donors ' fund or whether it goes to this non-profit, both are tax deductible . but you can get grants from
different place and we "'ant to make sure the people giving the mone y have a tax deductible gift.
Council Member Yurchick asked if it was for the RFP . Council Member Wolosyn said they could make
this more understandable on the 25 .. , but it was for the Exploratory Committee for the Cultural Ans
Commission, which has a business plan for an ans center, and this is the first step in a long-tern, plan . We
need to get a board going so that we ca n position ourselves to get mone y, both public and private . The
Cultura l Arts Commission is an advisory board of the City, and , at thi s point , it really is cormected to th e
City, she said .
Mayor Bums said this is the committee that we authorized last year to explore the possibility of a cultural
arts facility .
Council Member Yurchick asked if this is the prelude to the cultural arts center. Ms . Wolosyn said . yes.
Mr. Yurch1ck asked what happens if they want to do an RFP. are they then a separate entity from the City ?
City Attorney Brotzman said it actually would be separate from the City at that point. Certain non-profits
can receive grants , he said, that cities can not, and that is what this group is looking for. The non-profit
status would let them get private grants that the City simply can not obtain under it"s municipal exemption .

Mayor Burns asked if Mr. Brotzman was saying this could be done out of has budget . Mr. Brotzman said
yes . Mayor Burns said he did not have an objection ifit was under the C ity Attorney's budget. He said 1t
would encourage them to receive funds from some source other than the City. He felt that \\Ould be very
beneficial and he would encourage it.
Council Member Garrett said he is looking forward to the 25"'.
Mayor Burns asked if they were looking for a consensus at this time . or if a mollon wa necessary. C ity
Attorney Brotzman said they did not need a motion. If Council does not have any obJection. he will be
helping the Conunission find a non-profit attorney so they can get this entity formed so the y can receive
funds.
Mayor Burns asked if they would have it formed by the 25"' when the y -..;11 be gi ,·ing a presentation . Mr.
Brotzman said the paperwork will have been staned.
Mayor Burns said he had no objection.
Council Member Garrett asked if it would be under the existing budget. and would he need a special
appropriation. Mr . Brotzman said no , and it would be from ha s existing budget. Mr. Garrett asked what it
would cost. Mr. Brotzman said he had not spoken with the non-profit attorney yet , so he would be
guessing. We arc going to have to file all the IRS paperwork, so he reall y had no idea. but he assumed it
would be under S 10,000.00. Council Member Garrett said he would like to have a number to get an idea of
what they were talking about. Mr. Brotzman said he could get that.
14 . City Attorney's Report
(a) City Attorney Brotzman said he would be attending a seminar on Frida y. It is CML ·s
Strategic Visioning Process. He said if Council has any comments for the CML policymakers ... he said he
was on this board because he is chairing the City Attorneys· sec tion thi s year ... so 1fCounc1l would lake
CML to address something, please let him know.

Seni or Plarmer Graham. being dul y sworn , explained that the propose d amendment to the Co rnp rehe11'1\c
Plan would add a regional element. This element was anticipated by th e .. l\l 1le Hi gh o mpa ct'", wl11 h
came through this body recentl y. he said. We have anticipated thi s, actuall y. for th e pa st tw o year s. rn ce
the DRCOG board members, who are members of Council. passed it at the DR CO G boa rd le ve l But . he
noted, along with many of the other cities, we were waiting to understand the 1mph ca11 ons of thi s Reg ional
Plan before moving forward to this point . Mr. Graham advised that tht s add five core e le m ent s " h1c h are
the test s for whether the lo cal plans are consistent with the Regional Plan . O ne of th e e leme nt s "as al re ad )

Balanced Multimodal Transponation element, the Urban Centers elemem and Enviro nm e ntal Q ualit y, as
new items for our Comprehensive Plan. He noted that these amendments wo uld repre sent. pro babl y, th e
mo st signifi cant amendment, at least s ince the South Broadway Acti on Plan came through thi s body. Mr.
Graham said , from his review of the plan, that , probably, there have been onl y fi ve s 1gmfi cant amendment s
over twenty years , so it is not inconsequential that we ask Council to amend thi s. He explained that one of
the provisions of the .. Mile High Compact'" is that the Regional Plan serves a s the context for all o f th e
other elements . So, he said, we felt it was appropriate to move this pie ce along. ahead of the Ho us in g Plan .
the Economic Development Plan. the Open Space Plan and the Transponation Plan . We are here befo re

eruor Plaruier Graham said he would like to give Co un c il a couple of representative point s from each of
the five elements. just to illustrate what Council would be approving. He said he was not cenam \\heth er
Council re ceived the anachment. He passed them out to Council. In keeping with the format for th e
Co mprehensive Plan revision. he said, we are trying to stay at the pohcy level with these amendments . '\1 r.
Graham pointed out that after the policie s are in place . later on. then we would do the implementati on
plans . So , he advised . in this amendment we are only dealing \\~th the intent statement and the obJeCtJ\·c
under each of those intent statements . there isn't anything very specific. This doe sn 't include any proJe ct s.
Mr. Graham said the last one. on the extent of urban development hst. is 10 encourage the de,·elopment of
balanced communities. characterized by a mix of income and housing rypes and hav1D g a reasonable
relationship between the affordable housing suppl y and employment opponuniues. TI1at. he noted . 1s an
objective that is held by the Housing Authority, 11s something that we hope the hou s1D g gro up ... the
subcommittee that will be chaired by Chns Willi s, will take up as pan ofh1s c harge ID th e Ho us1Dg Ta sk
Force . oder open space. he pi cked out two. he said . Regarding the regional o pen space syste m. th ere 1s a
plan that shows the South Plane RJ\·er and Cherry Creek as the two pnon!les 111 the merro areas open ,pa ce
system. So, he aid. we belie ve that adopting this plan for Englewood will help us understa nd that so me of
the pieces of the open space s stem are 1mponant regionall y. as well as loca ll y . And. perhaps. ge t
resources from the region to help implement those. Another 1s to conserve and protect 1mponant narural
resources , including environmentally sensitive lands. wetlands and ~ldlife habnat. Agam. we are work mg
on an open space stud y of the Plane River corridor and this kind of statement helps us when we are makm g
grant application s to the Div1 s1on of\V1ldlife , or the Co nservauon Trust. for re ourccs to implement an
open space plan.
Mr. Graham advised that the rather Jong titled one is about mass rrans11 . Englewood 1s in the fonunate
pos111on ofhanngJu t implemented most of the most imponant pieces here ... prov1ding the high capital
rransponation faciht1es , which is an indirect reference to the hght rail transit. But. he noted. there is a
responsib1hty that 1s entatled with that investment, a responsibility to the region . which is , to develop land
uses that make efficient use of those facilities . That is the challenge to us now. he said, 1s to make se nse of
the land uses that could reasonabl y use light rail. Another one is implementmg the rapid transit to redu ce
the need for addiuonal roadway capacity and reconfiguring the bus network . Well cenainly, he noted .
some of the thmgs we are already working on, like the shuttle proJect. speaks directl y to tlus .
Semor Planner Graham explained that under urban centers. the idea in the Metro Vision is that ultimatel y
there would be several urban centers in rhe region . all served b y mass rran II and that most of the jobs and
entenainmcnt and retail opponuniues. the reg10nal ones, would be at the e large urban centers and yo u
would be able to get between them efficiently. He commented that Englewood has cenamly staned the
process \\~th CityCenter. Developing a mixed use facilit y on a light rail sys tem 1s a perfect fit for "hat thi s
urban centers is about ... focusing a major ponion offurure gro\\1h into urban centers to reduce land
consumption and loss of open space while increasing ndersh1p . Mr. Graham stated that the final point ID
urban centers talks about promoting a network of coruiected streets and sidewalks, with buildings oriented
toward sidewalks. He advised rhat many of the designs , suggesuons. that were made by Calthorpe and
Tryba on rhis project were exactly for that purpose, to strucrurc the park.mg , to keep the blocks small , the
development compact and very walkable . Mr. Graham advised that his take on this is that Englewood ha s
done a terrific job even Mthout Metro Vision policies . But making them explicit would be helpful to the
rest of the community to know what are some of the benchmarks for progress in these areas .
Mr. Graham stated the environmental quality piece 1s probabl y the most difficult one to understand, but 11
speaks to the difficulty of getting clean air and clean water . Largely these issues have to be handled on a
regional basis. it JUSt makes sense to handle II tlus wa y, he opined. Achieving a locally defined, balanced,
ecological cornmuruty, he noted, is a lot of words, but what 11 comes down to 1s that WR.I\.IAC. a DR COG
comminee, is charged w11h clean water compliance. They work ~th all the water utilities and provider
and they hope to structure reasonable arrangements where the investments m water capital facilities make s
sense .

to the Counc il for Historic Property Designation. Ms. Dannemillcr expla111 ed that 111 o rder for a propen~ to

1aff and the o mm1 ss1o n believes that this property meets two of the four crneria . in add111 011 10 the age
crnena, and n 1s a structure which embodies distinguishing charactensucs of a an archnectural ty pe
va luable for study of a period or style . In this case the Historical Socit'ly believes that the st ru cture I the

County Seat sry le . Also , 1t reflects the broad social hi story of the Ci ty of Englewood. ev iden ced by an
article in the June~. 191 5 Englewood Enterprise . talking about how the rai lroad and the subsequent dep ot.
helped to establish Englewood on the map . It created a station and helped generate busine s opponun111c s
in the City that were, otherwise, going to other neighboring cities. Add11,onall y, the Colorado Sta t~
Historical Society ha s listed the Englewood Depot on the State Re gister of Hi sto n c Places as of November

on this criteria. Ms . Dannemiller advised that repre sentatives of the Hi sto rical Sociery were present and 1f
Co un ci l would like them to speak to the merits of this application, the y are avai lab le to do that. Follo\\111 g
that. she said, we have a certificate for the Mayor to present to the representatives of the Society .

Ci ndy Scon stated she was representing the Englewood Historical Sociery . On behalf of the Society, she
thanked everyone for all therr support. Ms . Scon noted that many years of effort have gone mto savmg thi s
depot and it stands as a prominent landmark al this point . This is another step in establ1shmg its legitimacy
as a symbol of the community, she said, and they hope to continue to work to make it a reality and niake 1t
a real important pan of the community .

(iii ) Ri c k Kahm advised that he is the Engineering and Capital Proj ects Mana ge r for
the City, however he is speaking tonight as a Director of the Englewood Envuonrnental Foundatton . He
presented a recommendation from the Englewood Environmental Foundation to adopt a reso luti on
upponing the deal sheet between the Englewood Environmental Foundatio n and ',,!tiler Wemganen
co ncerning the space at the Bally Building at CityCeoter Englewood . Mr. Kahm adv ised the deal sheet 1s
dated August 21 , 2000 and the panies in the lease would be Weinganen/Miller Englewood LL C. Landl ord
and the Englewood Environmental Foundation as the tenant . The leased prenuse s, to be deve lo pe d m th e
Bally 's building, would be approximately 12 ,000 square feet. Mr. Kahm explained the rea son that 1s an
approximate number is because the building has not been fully designed yet. once the layou t takes p lace we
wi ll know exactly what the square footage is . It is a space lease wi th one lump sum rental pa ym ent. paid at
the beginning of the lease and that would be upon completion by Miller Weinganen of th e co re and shell
Co uncil Member Bradshaw asked when we anticipate that. Mr. Kahm advised th at by pa ss mg the
resolution this evening, the deal sheet would allow us to go forward and enter into a lease . whi c h \\OUld
require that they have that core and shell available to us within eight months of their closmg, "hi h wa s
August 4 , 2000. Ms. Bradshaw said oka y, so that doesn 't change that time line at all. Mr Kahm agreed
that this does not change that timeframe .
Mr. Kahm noted that it is . approximately. a 75-year lea se and it would run co nc urre nt ly wnh the M1 lkr
Weinganen gro und lease that the y have with th e Foundation for the who le propen y. He stat ed th e pnce
wo uld not exceed $66 .000. We would actuall y be pa ying fo r th e actual cos ts of hard co ts and so ft ·os t
There are forrnulas m the deal sheet that would allow us to pamc1pate 1fthere are . m fac t. SJ\ mg from that
number. On the so ft cost side it 1s also puts a cap of $48,000 on arch necture and engmeenng. A
development fe e 1s established at $1 5,000 , legal fees are capped at S 15,000. th a t is a not to ex ecd numbe r.
and interest is at the rate of one-half percent below prime. but capped at a maximum o fS4 0.000 .
Regarding the condition of the leased premises, he said. Miller Weinganen has defined a core shell as a
storefront with one entry door, one rear door, a troweled concrete floor wnh c utout for bathroom(s). one to n
HVAC per 400 square feet of building. that's provided but not d1smbuted. A 100 amp 12 01208 volt panel
for electrical. There would be structural studs on 16 inch centers with ban msulation, which would eparat e
the Ball y's use from this space and it come s with a water line , a sewer line and exterior sidewalks and
railings . That, he noted, is their definition of a core and shell.
Co uncil Member Bradshaw asked if that is the total cost. ~r. Kahm stated that is what we get fo r our
$668.000 maximum.

appropriating and transferring funds for the hard and soft cost of the David Taylor Dance Thearrc ·s
relocation to the CityCenter Englewood site.
...
Director Gryglewicz requested Council consider Agenda Item 11 (c) (v), a recommendation to ado pt a
resolution supportmg the deal sheet between the Englewood Envrronmental Foundation and the David
Taylor Dance Theatre, first. He explained that he wou.ld like Council to consider that first , as that is the
deal sheet with David Taylor that should be considered pnor to taking this action.
Council Member Nabholz aid she has a couple of quesuons she needs to have cleared up . Number one .
she said. by moving this deal sheet. she wants to make sure we are not compromising any of our current
projects that are gomg on. whether 11 be the "ater park. expansion of Malle y Center or expansion of Park s
and Recreation . She want s to make sure that none of our City and community things will be impacted by
moving this . Director Gryglew1 cz advised that the projects. Ms . Nabholz just spoke about , will be
considered in a bond I sue scheduled for 200 I . Tlus wtll have an impact on the bud ge t. he said . but at th ,·
present ume II will not impact any current projects .
Mayor Burns asked for confirmation that Director Gryglewicz was recommendmg Coun c il con sider
Agenda Item 11 (c) (v) first. Mr. Gryglew1cz said yes .
( v) Assistant City Manager Flaherty presented a recommendation from the
Englewood Environmental Foundauon to adopt a resolution supporting the proposed de al heet bet \\ee n the
Englewood Environmental Foundation and the David Taylor Dance Theatre for sublea e of space m th e
Bally building . He said, as Council will recall at our last Study Session. Council completed their verbal
negotiations with Mr. Taylor regarding use of the space and the cost allo catton fo r the development ofLhat
space . The intent of this deal sheet, he explained, is to be the basts for the contract that will mcorporat e th e
terms that Council discussed with Mr. Taylor last week . Mr . Flahert y said he wanted to sununanze tho se
terms . The City will contribute the initial cost of the core and shell finish to be provided by Miller
Weingarten to the City. The cost of that is approximately S529 ,000. to finish 9,200 square feet of the
12,000 square feet of the space the City will lease from Mt lier. A maximum expenditure for tenant fini sh
ofS275,000 and declining payments over five years totaling S240 ,000. Benefit to the City will include
rental payments received from David Taylor, at the rate of$6,875 a year, for a total of$34,375 during the
first term of the lease . The lease would be a five year lease wtth three , five year options . Over the term o f
the lease , 1fwe go to full term, it would be $13 7,500. However, he noted , Council. at the last session ,
indicated to Mr. Taylor that they wanted to make the lease payment subject to negotiation at the end of
each option penod ... at the end of the first five years and then at the end of each option period thereafter.
Mr . Taylor ,,.;11 provide, through his dance group, approximately $72,000 a year, in services to the Ctty, in
the way of performances at CityCenter. He asked 1f Council had any questions .
Mayor Bums commented that he thought this comports with our negotiation last week and our discussion .
Council '.'vlember Bradshaw stated that this reflects what we negotiated .
Assistant City Manager Flaherty stated that we believe this reflects what Council negotiated with Mr.
Taylor. We have had to clarify a couple of items for purposes of understanding how we move forward with
this project. In particular, he said. how the joint funding would take place . He advised that what we are
suggesting is that Mr. Taylor would be provided an amount of time, and we have provided twelve months .
for him to raise the necessary funds or in-kind services, necessary to add to the City's $275 ,000. so that
when we go forward with the project, we know that we have the funds available to complete the project .
Council Member Bradshaw noted that this also ties into that August 4"' closing date with Miller
Weingarten.
Council Member Nabholz said it is her understanding that we would have to do this core and shell finish
anyway at the same cost .

COUNCIL COMMUNICATION
DATE : September 5, 2000 AGENDA ITEM
9a
SUBJECT: Englewood Town
Center PUD Signage Amendment
INITIATED BY : Englewood Environmental
Foundation
PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION:
STAFF SOURCE: Harold J . Sti tt . Senior
Planner, Community Development
Department
On August 7 , 2000 . the proposed Englewood Town Center PUD Signage Amendment was
approved on First Reading with a public hearing set for September 5. 2000 . City Counc il
approved the Englewood Town Center Planned Unit Development as Ord,nance No . 82 . Series
of 1998 on November 11, 1998 .
PREVIOUS PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION:
The Planning Commission approved the proposed signage amendment at a public hearing on
July 18, 2000 . The Planning Commission previously approved the Englewood Town Center
Planned Unit Development on October 27, 1998 .
BACKGROUND:
The Englewood Town Center Planned Unit Development District Plan Design Standards and
Guidelines were created to provide site planning and design direction based on the unique
nature of the project. The Standards and Guidelines help to re inforce the relationsh ip of the
uses and establish the character of the development , a character that is also reinforced by the
signage .
At that time of the adoption of the PUD , specific sign criteria for the development had not been
developed . Rather than leave signage consideration out of the Design Standards and
Guidelines , the current Comprehensive Zoning Ordinance sign regulations the were
incorporated . With site design, architectural character , and details complete. the Foundation is
requesting that the signage standards and guidelines of the PUD be repealed and replaced with
the attached signage regulations .
The proposed signage regulations differ from the current Sign Code by placing emphasis on
design rather than strict requirements . The Standards create categories of uses with min imum
requirements . In addition to these categories , the Standards also define sign types specifically
identified for CityCenter . The most notable feature of the Standards is the Design Review
Board that will review and approve all sign designs. 1 he Board will help to insure overall design
integrity throughout the development.
The Planning and Zoning Commission, in their deliberations, offered three amendments
concerning prohibited signs and references to joint identification signs locations . These
amendments have been incorporated into the proposed sign regulations .

A Vision for CityCenter £nglewood
CityCanter Englewood is the realization of a master plan to create a unique urban environment
that enhances the economic, soc ial. physical and cultural life 1n the Denver metropolitan area.
This project offers a strong sense of community to people moving to the metroplex and to our
active lifestyle, by combining art 1n public places. live performance venues and an urban mix of
retail shopping and res1dent1al. CityCanter creates a memorable . dist1nct1ve and human
environment that 1s easily accessible by the li&nt rail transit. The convenience of diagonal
parkin& in front of the retail district reinforces the feel of community w1th1n an urban fabric.
Supported Values
The City encourages retail tenants and residential property owners to take advantage of the three-
dimensional sian criteria allowed by the "Creative Sians" standards-These standards give
preference to creative s11ns utilizing three-dimensional volume. unique angles . shapes . materials.
color and l ighting to express the character of :he business ano tile surrounding urban
environment.
• The voluml! signs capture the •1iewer 's eye as he/she trave ls around ·ne ,olume of :he si gn .
This creates lonaer and greater viewing of the business exposure wh il e add i ng enter:a1nme nt
value to the experience.
The rights of the retail tenants should not subordinate the rights of their resident ial
neighborhood. The mix of retail and residential must respec: the balance of the urban •11llage .
All areas exposed to public view within and surround i ng the Planned Unit Development (P'JD l.
will be reviewed by the Creative Sign Standards Criteria. Retail tenants. residential entry
identification and common areas shall avoid linear or boxy forms i n preference of dynamic
curves . angles. materials and lighti ng of signs with volume.
a.ti All retail tenants and residential development owners are ~ncouraged to express their own un 1que
design statement w1th1n the parameters of the des ign criteria for signs and "common area ·· street
graphics .
General Statement
The Ci ty of Englewood recognizes that signs within Englewood Town Center PUD are a necessary
means of visual communication for the convenience of the public and that it is the right of those
concerned to identify their businesses or services . Therefore. the Ci ty encourages unique and
innovative urban signs and street graphics. not only to aid in the creation of shopping and
commerc ial areas but also to enhance and i mprove the character of the PU D as a whole .

standard mathematical formulas for regular aeometric shapes. including. without limitation.
triangles. parallelograms . circles. ellipses or combinations thereof.
2. Irregular Shape. In the case of an irregularly shaped sign or a sign with letters or symbols
directly affixed to a building, the area of the sign is the entire area within a single
continuous rectilinear perimeter of not more than e11ht straight lines enclosing the extreme
limits of any writing, representation, emblem or any fi1ure of s1m1lar character, together with
any material or color forming an integral part of bac1<&round of the display if used to
differentiate such sign from the backdrop or structure against whic:, 1t is placed.
3. More than One Element. The total surface area of non-proiecting signs composed of more
than one sign element includes the 'lertical and horizontal spac ing between eac h element of
the sign .
4. Length . The length of a non-projecting sign shall not exceed fifty (50 ) percent of th e
length of the wall or the width of the leased space of the wall on wh1c:i 1t 1s located .
whichever is less.
5. Non-Projecting Signs on Multi-ienant Buildings. The total allowable area i or non-pro1ect1ng
signs on multi-tenant buildings shall be based on the length of a tenant's frontage. accord in g
to the following calculat ion : (multiple frontages allow the same formula for each frontage )
Total Buildin1 Fronta1e x 1.2,. Muimum Allowable Sian Area
Thus. a tenant with thirty-five (35) linear feet of frontage would have !orty-two (42 ) scuare
feet of allowable sign area (35 x 1.2 = 42).
6. Single-Tenanr Bu1/dmgs. The total allowable area for non-projecting signs on sing le-tenant
bu1ld1ngs shall be based on the area of the building, according to the fol lowing calcu lat ion :
Total Buildin1 Area x .020 = Muimum Allowable Sian Area. not to exceed
1,000 square feet.
Thus . a tenant occupying a 20.000 sQuare-foot building wou ld have 400 sQuare feet of
allowable sign area (20,000 x .020 = 400).

The City of Englewood is submitting herewith a request for a license for The Big Dry Creek Trai l
bicycle/;,edestrian underpass crossing under Regional Transportation District (RID) Light Rail line s lo cated
at approximately South Santa Fe Drive and Bellview Avenue in Englewood, Co lorado . (Please see attached
map for location.) The project is a key trail link in a major non-motorized transportation route that wi ll serve )
the South Central metro area. An application is also currently pending before the P .U .C .
The project partners conducted a site tour of the proposed underpass with R TD representatives on June 16 ,
1999 and submitted preliminary construction drawings for review to you. as well as Jerry Nery , Andy
Leong, and Terrel Heather on October 5, 1999.
Our project team has addressed comments received from Jerry Nery dated October 19 , 1999 request ing that
we review as-built improvements as completed by RTD in August to determine design co mpatibility w ith
the underpass . The as-built improvements were reviewed by our project engineer John Pflaum and were
incorporated into the final design detailed in the attached revised plans. Jerry also asked that John Pflaum
address the impacts of the project to the RID structure during a 100-year event flood . We have attached a
hydraulics report from John Pflaum that addresses this issue .
This letter serves as a request for a final review of the attached plans and issuance of a license for the Big
Dry Creek Trail bic ycle/pedestrian underpass. If you have any questions. or need additiona l info rmatio n
ple as e feel free to call Nancy Reid at 303-762-2320 or Jerrell Black at 303-762-2681 .
Thank you for your consideratio n o f this request and I look forward to hearing fr o m you .

Colorado Planning Grant
10 C ii
INITIATED BY : Community Development STAFF SOURCE : Lauri Dannemiller ,
Planning Analyst
COUNCIL GOAL AND PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION:
No previous action has been taken on this matter.
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Approval of a resolution to apply for a Great Outdoors Colorado Planning Grant
which will assist in funding a South Platte River/Santa Fe Corridor Open Space
Plan.
BACKGROUND, ANALYSIS, AND ALTERNATIVES IDENTIFIED:
The South Platte River/Santa Fe corridor is beginning to spur redevelopment
opportunities due to the large public investment garnered in the RTD Southwest
Corridor Light Rail line . While much of this economic redevelopment will be
welcomed , it is imperative to be aware of and plan for the protection of the
recreational , natural resource and open space amenities provided along this
corridor .
The South Platte River has been identified in numerous documents , including the
1979 Comprehensive Plan, as one of the city 's most valuable assets worthy of
continued protection . While this natural resource has benefited from the
community's protection efforts, a long-range strategy is necessary due to the
ever-changing development environment.
This plan proposes to address:
1.) Identification of lands with potential for redevelopment into recreational
and open space uses;
2 .) Upgrading the pedestrian and bike trail to address safety , aesthetic and
natural resource concerns;
3 .) Identification of the corridor as a link between the cities and nature,
through improved linkages to key urban assets; and

•
•
•
l ' ,,
• -~
4 .) Creation of a shared vision, both locally and regionally , for the
maintenance of healthy communities by providing for an improved qual ity
of life for the region .
Project funding will support a consultant , specializ ing in open space and
recreational land use . to facilitate a five-phased process including:
1.) Open Space and Land Use Inventory-creation of an inventory of
current land uses and assessment of their potential compatibility with
open space standards and their potential for redevelopment to open
space uses;
2 .) Consensus Building -public , private and agency representation of
their desires for the corridor ;
3.) Visioning -development of alternatives and a pro/con analysis of
potential open space scenarios along the corridor ;
..
4 .) Preferred Option-refining the potential scenarios and presenting detail
on the projected costs (capitol and operating) of the preferred option ;
and
5 .) Vision in Motion -presenting strategies for implementation of the plan
recommendat ions .
Since the South Platte River stretches throughout the entire metro-Denver
region , it is essential that other community interests are considered in this plan .
To this end , the planning process will bring together a variety of interests . in the
form of a steering committee , including Arapahoe County, the City of Sheridan ,
the City of Littleton , South Suburban Parks and Recreation District , The
Greenway Foundation , Corps of Engineers , Urban Drainage and Flood Control
District , Trust for Public Lands , local youth groups and other interested parties.
Additionally , Arapahoe County has committed their support for this process by
approving the use of the City of Englewood Community Development Block
Grant funds as matching resources towards this grant application .
Notification of the outcome of this appl icat ion w ill be received in February 2001
and the project is expected to be completed six months after notification to
proceed .
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
Total cost of the project is $59 ,000 . Funding from Great Outdoors Colorado is
requested in the amount of $34 ,000 , with the balance being provided from CDBG
funds in the amount of $25,000 .

Re : Carl Carrell. Plant Operaior I at Littleton/Englewood Wastewater Treatment Plane ;
DisciplillMY Appeal and Request for Hearing before a Hc:aring Officer
Dear Sir/Madam :
1 am writing os coun:;c:I lor Carl Carrell, hereby to notify you of Mr. Carrell'.; appeal of
his August 8, 2000 termination and to request a hearing before a haring officer. 1n doing so , Mr .
Carrell is exercising his right of disciplinary appeal and request for hearing as set forth in the
C ity of Englewood Administrative Po li cy M1111ual --Hwn1111 Resources Policies , p11ge 31 (attached
hereto as Exhibit 1 ).
For the past nineteen years. Mr . Carrell has worked for tbe City of Englewood at its
Wuu:w~ Tn:atmt=nl Plant. Mr. Carrell has performed his work satisfactorily during that time .
but n:cently has had difficulties with attendance as a result of family uoubles (these troub les
culminated in Mr . Carrell's divorce this year).
NATURE OF rnE DISPUTE
On August 8 , 2000, Mr . Carrell was iiiven notice of the termination ot' his employment
for a final attendance failure, from July 30, 2000 througii August I, 2000 . (The termination of
employment notice is attached hereto as Exhibit 2.) Mr. Can'Cll's final inattendance was
necessitated by hi~ am:.<1t and incarceration on drug charges that were dropped five days aiter lhe
arrest for lack of evidence. Mr. Carrell explained to his supervisor inunediately after bis
incarcetation the reason for his inability to llppear for work . Mr . C.urell 's supervisor, Jim Tallent.
Operations Division Manager, told him by telephone it was okay thal he had missed some work
because of the mistaken arrest and that he would be able to make up the shifts l11rcr that week .
When Mr . Carrell returned to work., however, be was given the ootice of termination instead of
being able to make up the shifts. which he was willing 1111d able to do .
It is a matter of concern that Mr. Cazrell's iDancDdance due to emotional difficulties and
illl c:roncous mest have prompted Mr . C=ll's tc:rmination. It is a matter of grave concern .
howe ver. that a fellow wastcWalCr plant employee hu bad similar anendance problems caused
by di von:e . but remains a City employee . Mr . Carrell is black; his fellow employee is white.

lbe Wasaewater TffldZDellt Pl11J1l seems to be one of the last bastions of 1'llci3m.
Employees of color are given more meaial tasks to perform than white employees of comparable
experience and job levels. Training is less available to employees of color than to white
employees. Employees and supervisors tell raci,tjokes.
Mr. Candi believes that his recent tcnnination was motivated by race., and not by his
inattendaace from Iuly 30 through August 1. 2000 and on prior occasions. Mr. Carrell believes
that he can prove this fact by a pn:ponderan1.1: uf evidence ifhc were to file a wronafw discharge
suit apinst the City. Mr. C~ll would like merely to be rcimtatcd in bis former position,
however, rather than to tile such a suit.
Additionally, Mr. Carrell believes that his leave time_ sick days, and vllA:litiun llays were
calculated incomcdy, placina him in a position of having no excused absence days when he
should have bad cbcm. 1ne incorrect calculation of his excused absence days may have
contributed to his cerminatiun too.
11m A TI'EMPTS TH£ EMPLOYF.F. RAST AKEN TO RESOLVE HIS APPEAL
Mr. Cmcll has secured counsel to represent him and ben:by n,qut!lils a bearing before a
hearing officer to appeal his termination. Mr . Carrell was not given an opportunity on August 8,
2000. when given his notice of tennination. to object to it or appeal from it.
REQUESTED REMEDY
Mr. Carcll rcspecdwly requests to have his disciplin:iry appeal heard before a hearing
officer. Mr. Cmdl aecks immediate rcimtatcmcnt as a Plunt Opcmur T llltd sceks beck pay for
the pcricd after his termination (which was efrcctivc Auaust 13, 2000) and until bis
rwimtet mezit. Iftbe City reimtates Mr. Cm-ell as requested, with baclc. pay as requested. he will
qrec DDt to file lluil apiast the City of EnJlcwood for wrongful termination based on racial
discrimination as aicswt of the notice o!temtination given to him on August 8, 2000.
