(a) Norwood McFarland said he wanllld to see how he could get !his lhing straightened out
with the Police Department. because he is not getting any results with all !his harassment going on down
at his molher's place at 2290 Vallejo Street. He said they do have some people who have moved in across
the succt from his house. but the cops have been to his house , a week ago since Sunday. But. he noted.
when he went back to that police swion over here. !his Friday past. to try to get lhings straightened out by
the officer, they swted harassing him at his mother's house. But !his a,p would not take any word from
his mother, from him, and he tried to tell him to get the ha:t out of the stalion over here. down the block
and he noted, Council knows where that is at. But. he said. he doesn 't know what to tell Council. that he
has these people over here that are causing problems with him and calling the cops on him and he is not
doing anything to tbme people. Mr. McFarland advised he is womng for a gentleman. he has a barber
shop, but his father owns that house. but he has found out what the people are causing the problem and
harassing Olber people on there. But. he stated, he is not doing anything to those people. he doesn 'I even
know who those people are in that house when he comes home from his job. So, he advised. this is the
second time he has called the cops and they came to his house and tried to tell him that they want no pan
of it. Because these people try 10 tell him that he is showing his finger at them. Mr. Mcfarland said he
can't explain it. that he can ·1 even go over to that space down there and talk to the Police Dcpanment in
the right way to get this thing clear out of his system. He said he got the paper to go 10 coon on March
4 •. He noted with his condition. with his seizures. that he gets all worked up about this dam thing and he
is gffling tired of it. This is the second. since five years ago. when he was kicked by another gentleman
that lived down by his place . And they never did anything to that person. he got away with this whole
situation. He reitcnted he can 't explain it to Council. He said he knows Al Stanley no longer works for
that dc:putment. that Chris OI-bas taken his place and he -all mixed up since last Friday. Mr .
Mcfarland Slated he didn 't gct the officer 's name. but that he was dressed up in a tie and a suit and he got
real cuc:lcy over there . He said he swean to God. thal he doesn ·1 know what kind ol officers we have. that
you cunot talk to the people in this world today . He can 't tJeat the people and tell you to gct out of this

problem with the police department coming down all the time. He Slated his mother can 't be running out
of her hoUlc. that she has a bad heart condition. She has a bad bean and has been in the hospital three
times now by the paramedics here. by the Englewood Fire Department. He advised he is living with her.
but he is hoping it doesn't happen again. But he talked to the people at the front. up around the front. and
they told him to put it in writing or come 10 the hearing and explain it to Council in pcnon . Mayor Bums
told him that Council appRCialcs the fact that he has come and if he wanted to write a lcner he should feel
free to do that. Council Member Bradshaw encouraged Mr. Mcfarland to leave his card. Mr. Mcfarland
said he would leave his card. but that he hoped they could do this for him. that he would appreciate it very
much . He thanked Council.
(b) Robert D' Amico. Regional Manager for Waste Management Inc .. advised they have a
facility at 2400 West Union A\leDUC in Englewood. He DIiied dial Council will consider Council Bill No.
12 tonight, which would place some rcsuictions on Union Aw:nuc and west of Clay Street. as the
ordinance is written. He said he would like to offer some input OD that proposed ordinance, from Waste
Management's perspective. Mr . D' Amico advised that he has been the Regional Manager here in Denver
for about ten years and he is very familiar with the facility . As a matter of fact. he said. one of his first
associations with Waste Management dates back to 191!0 when that facility was originally constructed.
Obviously. he noted. their usc of Union Avenue docs put truck traffic on that section of Union Avenue.
from Santa Fe Drive to Federal. He said he would like to clarify their operation for Council. He stated
they actually have two operations at the Union Avenue facility . They base their truck nec1 there. which
consists of about 100 vehicles. but they also operate a transfer facility and a recycling facility and he
thought they have had the opportunity to have some of Council there in the past. In connection with the
transfer and recycle facility they do accept public traffic, bolh at the transfer station and for people
depositing their recyclables for processing. Mr. D' Amico advised they were in to talk to Gary Scars and
Chuck ESlcrly last week about the proposed ordinance and they discussed some possible alternatives. He
said they were CIICOW'qCII to QOIIIC in and offer some input and they welcome the opportunity to do that.
He Slated they appn:ciate the a>nccrns of the rcsidcnls on Union A venue. especially those residents that
aclUally front Union A\'CIIUC . He ackoowlcdFd there is a lot of heavy truck traffic on that stretch of
Union A\'CIIUC. He said they have. in fact. routed all of their uucks from Union Avenue. cast to Santa Fe.
They have instnlClcd their heavy route trucks. their refuse collection vehicles. to usc that route.
Periodically they will have a truck that comes in from Federal Boulevard and they continue to police that
within their own l1cCl. bccaulc they are sensitive to this issue and. be said. be thought this issue has been
before Couaci1 before. Whal they are ~ coacemcd about are the n::strictions that are being
CUITClllly aNmdacd. He advised that they think they are -=II too low. The average refuse vehicle
weighs approximatdy JS,000 pouads. He said they tlwlk if c-:il would focus OD the type of vcbicJes
that they really want to exclude from that ponioa of Union Aw:nuc, that we could end up with a solution
that they could be comfonablc with. Mr. D' Amico adviscd 11111 they really do IIO( want their heavy uucks
traversing that area of Union A\'CIIUC anyway , tlley ralm tlleR an: some safety issues there. 1bcrc is a
part jua to the north of Union Avenue there. it is quite -to have children in the area. So it
makes good business scnsc for them to keep their own heavy refuse veluclcs off that street . But. he noted.
with the traffic they generate at bolh the transfer Slalion and the recycling facility . it is common for them
to have vehicles in the 20,000 pound raDF that are IIO( 1arJC trucks. IIO( what you would think of as refuse

that bring their demolition debris into the facility . They allO have Slake bed trucks. roofing contractors

Council Member Clapp asked what time they clo9e the park. Mr. Stitt said be thought it was 10 :00 p .m .
but. he noted. she might want to direct tbal question to the South Suburban reprcsenlalives here tonight.
Mayor Bums DOlaS we previously made a m:onl of notices being published and so fonh and this is a
cootinucd bearing. Mr . Stitt said tbal is right.
DPe Lorenz, EXCICUIM: Director of South Suburban Parts and Recreation District. 6631 South University
BouleYard, passed out an intergo\'emmenl agreement which -authorized by their board at the last
public bearing. This agreement would allow Englewood residents South Suburban rates at the miniature
golf coune and baaing caacs at Comenlonc Pan. South Suburban residents. in return. would get
Eaglnood raidenl rates ll the swimming pool Englewood is planning to build near the Home Lumber
site. Mr . Lorenz advised lhal we joindy agree to line our Sld"s wort a,operativdy to create sufficient
parking for the fourth ball field they would like to bllild. • wd1 • for the swimming complex the City is
planning to build. In additioa, be said. be bas banded Council a leltcr wherd,y South Suburban is
agreeing to pay Englewood Sl,000 per year for City servic:a to Comenlonc Park. as it was taken alf the
tax rolls when it was acquired by South Suburban . Also, as identified t;arlier. he noted. he inc:luded a
letta from their traffic: engineer, which he ~ addreues the cona:ms that were raised by Council in
the previous meeting. Mr. Lorenz said be hopes tbal with these agreements Council will move quic:k.ly, as
quic:kly • possible, to approve their revised ll1IISICr plan for Cornerstone Park. so they can c:onstruct in-
line hockey and a skate board park. He stated he belic:\'es that this cooperative agreement between our two
entities. when enlered into, will only benefit the citizens of both communities and that our dream of jointly
clevdoping a c:enlllll park for all people of the area. regardless of which taxing entity they happen to live
in. will be realized.
In n:sponse to Mayor Bums. City Attorney Brownan advised tbal the intergovernmental ag,eement will
come back to Council, in ordinanc:c f-. • the next mecling.

(i) Director Simpson presented a recommendation from the Neighborhood and
Business Development Depanment to adopt a resolution approving an Encroachment Agreement for a
n:Caining wall al 4096 South Cherokee. He advised that this is an appeal for an Encroachment Agreement
and that Encroachment Agreements. for the City of Englewood, are typically administrative agreements
that allow for use of public rigbt-of·-Y for a variety of things, such as signs or walls or fences. They are
required to meet cenain criteria before they are granted and they are required to be reviewed by the
Director of Public Works and the Director of Neighborhood and Business Development. In this particular
case. he said. this Encroachment Agreement was going through the system and it was not approved
because the wall was not in the correct location. It was denied by the Director of Public Works. He
advised that Ms . Swanson. the applicant for this Encroachment Agreement, was in attendance tonight. if
they would like to speak with her. Mr. Simpson explained that because this is an appeal there is no Slaff
recommendation and Slaff is scelting resolution from Council .
Mayor Bums aslled about the status of notice of violation . Mr. Simpson said that Ms. Swanson was before
the oowt and received nocicc to prooced to correct the violation. This request for appeal is her attempt to
not do that. He explaiDCld that the situation is that a wall was built. directly adjacent 10 the sidewalk . We
require that those walls be built one foot back from the sidewalk . He noted that. as Council might have
read from the background, there were a series of difficult circumstances that lead up 10 this and this
particular agreement does not RICCI the criteria. Ms. Swanson has chosen 10 pursue this route and she is
seeking direction from Council.
Council Member Bradshaw asked about the rationale behind the wall being one foot off' of the sidewalk.
Mr. Simpson advised she probably needs to direct that question to Public Works . He noted he thought
everyone was in attendance tonight to answer lllOll of Council · s questions. He commented that. from a
Neighborhood and Business Developmcnl Slandpoint. they dido 't see significant problems. But. he said.
he thought it was a safety issue from a Public Works standpoint. more than anything.
Director Esterly said he could address it to -extent. but in fact it is a City Council onlinancc that
requires the one foot . Pan of the ratioaalc. be advised. and panicularly in a location like this. where the
sidewalk is very narrow, is that it doesn't allow you to ICIUally utiliz.e the full width of the sidewalk . If
you are right up agaiDSl the wall as you are walking down the sidewalk. your arms and shoulders can· t
negotiale the sidewalk. Mr. Esterly pointed out that it is a significant encroachment on the use of the
facility and it is already a relatively nanvw sidewalk al this location. too. Council Member Bradshaw
commented that it is exceptionally narrow in that one pan . Mr . Esterly noted it is not exa:ptionally
narrow. that actually there are other locations around this area where encroachments like this have either
been allowed or just occwrcd without a permit and there has been no enforcement action taken and they
are typically on sidewalks that are wider than this one. In response to Council Member Bradshaw.
Director Esterly advised that this is two and a half feet.
Mayor Bums commented that one of the notes says that Neighborhood and Business Dadopment Slaff
reviewed the Encroachment Ap-ccment and finds it will have no negative impact on the neighborhood.
and it will not adversely afJect adjacent propeny . He asked CllXdy what does that mean . Apin. Director
Simpson said. their criteria is fairly limited and be tbought Public Works reviews it mosl.ly from the
distance and location . He advised that. from tbcir standpoint. their Encroachment Agreements are really
not defined all that well and when they look • Encroaclunent Agreements they -t to make sure that
generally they are revocable if they 1-1 to be and tllal they don't impair development of adjacent
properties. He advised that this one docs not. He added tllal they uy to make sure they don 't create
silllalions for the City that can 't be resolved al a laler dale . Mr. Simpson staled that. from their
SIIDdpoint. this doesn't lCClll to hfte a nepaivc iatpKt OIi the comaanity ... from their andpoint. He
staled that is why this is befOR Council ... bec:aulC it takes tM to make that decision and they are not in
agn,cment. He noted thal is okay . •· •

Council Member Waggoner asked, even when a wall is one foot behind, if there isn 't a n:quircmcnt that it
be sloped one foot back away from the sidewalk. Diffldor Esterly advised that since we arc doing an
encroacbmenl pc:rmit tbcrc arc sort of exceptions and they arc done on a case by case basis. In some cases
they arc slopillg back and in other cases they arc very short walls. He commented that a two and half foot
sidewalk imy be oby for an able bodied person to walk down there. but you get into a situalioo where
anc:bocl)' is hying to manipulate a wheelchair and Slay oa the sidewalk, with elbows out ... itjust doesn 't
give any room for a person like that to make use of the sidewalk.
Council Member Habcnic;ht asked. if the neighbors ha\lC been <XllllaCICld. if tbcrc has been any concems in
the neigllborllood about this ... pro or a>n . Director Simplllll llid not that they arc aware of.
Mayor Burm noted that the way this agrccmcnt reads it is mocablc at will by the City. Director
SimPIOII explained that all Encroachment Agreements arc mocablc at will. because of the fact that there
is use o(public rigbt-d-way ... iffor some reason we need to lake that space back.
In other words, Council Member Habenicht said, if we ~ this we would be approving that we could
also unappnM: it whenever we wanted to. Director Simpson advised that is colTCCI. that one of the things
that comes with this ... in this particular case ... that he thought. in the next few years. we would be seeking
to widen 1h11 plr1icular Slrcc:t. He asked Direc:1or Esterly if that was correct . Mr. Esterly said that he
doesn't ha\lC lhal information in front of him. But basically, be advised. the cona:pt of just letting them
do it and rewiring it later on. is diffiaalt because at this point in time. by granting the encroachment
permit you arc cncounging them to expend a significant amount of money on creating a suucturc. To
undo that laler oa, be noccd. you arc asking them to remcM the SIIUCtUrC. which they paid 10 put up,
which they ~ again pay to lake down. He pointed out 1h11 it is a linlc different if we were lalking
about Paul's Ralaurant and he wants to ha\lC an ~t that allows him to put up an awning out in
the stred. The COIi for him to n:1110Ye that awning is negligible . But. be commented. in this case you
ha\lC a wall tbal is IUIIDing the entire lateral length of the street.
Council Member Habenicht asked if it is true that it is already tbcrc. Director Esterly advised it is under
COllllnlClioa . Council Member Waggoner noted it is not a,aplclcd . Mr. Esterly stated tbcrc is a portion
o( it tbcrc. He advised they have been ordered to Slap wort oa it
Council Member Nabholz asked if there arc any other raaiDiDg walls in the neighborhood similar to that.
Diffldor Esterly aid yes tbcrc arc .
Council Member Bradshaw qucllioacd if they arc within 1h11 one foot . Direaor Esterly AMed dial the
retaining walls they ha\lC men ha\lC had a diffcrcat width ol sidewalk in place II tbole ~ ud to bis
koowlcdF no one has raearcbcd wbedlcr they ha\lC arc peraiacd or not They arc pllysically tlleR.

swcd if there were plans in the worts to widen the street. more typically wc would wind up being in the
widening business ounclves. Ms. Bradshaw said what she is trying to say is. if the wall is constructed,
within these rules that we have here. would the City come back in five years and ask them to knock the
wall down, because of the street improvement. Director Esterly swcd he cannot tell her at this point in
time. He said he doesn't believe this street is scheduled for an improvement in the next five years.
Council Member Bradshaw asked about the next ten years. Mr . Esterly advised they do a Five Year Plan .
Then, Council Member Nabbolz said, it is not in the Five Year Plan. Mr. Esterly said it is not in the Five
Year Plan for an improvement.
Mayor Bums nocal that he is a little confused by looting at it. exactly where the c:ncroachmcnt is.
Council Member Waggoner indicated it is all the way next to the sidewalk . Mayor Bums asked if ii is all
along the wall. Council Member Clapp advised that she drove by this today and ii was hard 10 see the
front of it. but she could sec the side of ii on Oxford. On Oxford. she noted. you have the newer. wider
sidewalk and then on the front you have the very narrow . So on the busiest pan of the walkway you do
have plenty of room . Then, she said, ii appeared 10 her Iha! ii narrows in the fronl of the property .
Mayor Bums asked how high they plan lo go . He was advised it will be 30 inches .
Council Member Habenicht said that if is 20% complded. what would be the problem for anybody who is
involved in this project. to grant the encroachment for just the part they have completed. Director
Simpson advised they can't. because it is the foundation that is 20% complete and in order to get corrected
it would have to be put back one foot . Ms . Habenicht said then it is the encroachment pan that is
complete . Mr. SimplOII staled that is right.
Directing her question to Mr. Esterly. Council Member Bradshaw wanted 10 know if they asked this
resident to comply with the lctlcrs from Public Worts. would they be coming back 10 1his person in the
futwe and asking them to lake the wall down . Director Esterly advised they could. that that is part of the
Enc:roachmcnt Agreement. that wc could come back to them if wc wanted to make any improvement to
the street whatsoever. and at their COit they would remove the wall . He swcd that is uue of any
Encroachment Agreement that we approve. Council Member Bradshaw thanked him for the answer.
Council Member Garrett asked. if they built it one foot back from the sidewalk. they move the wall back
and the City then widens the street and the wall needs 10 be removed. would Iha! be the City 's cost
Director Simpaon said no . Mr. Garrett said it is not enc:roacbing. Mr. Simpson expwned Iha! they are
meeting the criteria of the Encroachment Agreement. it is still within the public right-of-way .
So . Council Member Bradshaw said. either way . if they continue to build the wall. they still might have to
tear it down and if they follow our rules they may have 10 tear it down . Director Simpson said potentially .
Director Esterly advised Ibey could. that WC could requiJe either one to be laken down . He commetUed
that he thought wc have -pn,ccdcal in the pat. wheR we might amune -respomibility for
rccomtructing that if it -pan of a large widening project. But wc are not n:quiRd 10 do that.
Council Member Habeaidll abd if this foot were not an i-. if this would be an improvement or would
it be ~ that would be an eyaore. DiRCtOr Simpson advised that tllll is wheR he came in to the
siluation. Council Member Bnidshaw asked that he tell them . Mr . Simpma stated that he would ICII
Council tllll he thinks it becomes an improvement. aathetically it i1 an improvement.
But. Council Member Wagoner pointed out. it is difficult for people to walk on a two foot eight walk
with a wall rip& beside the back of the sidewalk . Yes. Council Member Bradshaw said. and ii is difficult
for kids to ride bicydcs ... that is a concem .

Council Mcmber Clapp said that she wanted to gel some clarification. She noced we have talked about
widening the 5lrcelS and tbollc possibilities. but she wondcrm about sidewalks. She asked if then: an: any
plans to widen the sidewalk . Director Esterly advised that we do not have a program in place throughout
the City that would routinely widen sidewalks. If we wen: widening this street. he swcd. we would go 10
a diffemit sidewalk section, probably, ifwe had enough right-of-way .
Council Member Habenicbt asked if there isn't a bike lane somewhere then: on Oxford. Council Member
Waggoner noted that lricyc1cs don't usually ride in bike lanes. Ms . Habenicht questioned how we can
aa:ommodatc these little Irids.

Motion canicd.
(ii) Director Gryglewicz presented a rccommendalion from the Department of
Financial Services adopt a resolution declaring the intent of the City of Englewood to reimburse itself with
proceeds of a future borrowing for capital outlays at the Safety ServiteS communication center. He
explained that this resolution declares the intent of the City of Englewood to reimburse itself for the costs
that an: currently being expended on the communication S)'5lcm. at the newly constructed communication
center . Normally when we COIISUUCl a capital pn,jcc:t. he said, we borrow the money first and then
construct. He advised lbal what we are doing is having the software and hardware installed and paying it
in increments. At the end of that we would borrow the funds to reimburse the City.
Mayor Bums asked about tbc stalUS of this pn,jcc:t. as be thought it was suppose to be operational in
March . OiRlctor Gryglewicz advmd that is should be completed by the end of this summer . Mayor
Bums collllllCIIICd it wa ia. fall , dim it wa March and now it is at tbc end oftbc summer . Mr.
Gryglewicz said be can 't answer tbc quesaions on tbc complexity of this pn,jcc:t. but buically all of the
software is being developed. all the dala is being convcncd. it is all custom software. it all has to be tested
and people need to be trained . That. he advised. is the reason why it is taking so long to gel it up and
running and make sure its is 100% before it goes on-line. He Slaled that at the end of the process the Ci ty
will probably issue. buically. a leuc purchase agreement on this equipment.
C ity Manager Sears staled they can give Council a swus report because it has been going on a while.
But, be said, communicalion syslCIIIS are n:ally complex to transfer. He reiterated they should give
Cowlcil an updaled repon on that.
Cowlcil Mcmber Nabllolz said that she would appreciale that. that she scrva1 on that Task Fora: and she

Nays : None
Motion carried.
(iii) Director Gryglcwicz presented a recommendation from the Dcpanmcnt of
Financial Services to adopt a resolution approving a supplemental appropriation and transfer of funds
from the Capital Projcds Fund and General Fund to the Englewood Envirunmcntal Foundation. Inc . He
stated that. accually. the funds for this project will be transfenal in whole from the unreserved.
undcsignatm funds in the General Fund, to the Englewood Environmental Foundation. Inc . in the amount
of $625,000. Earlier this evening. he DOied. Council met with the potential an:bitecc and these monies
would be transferred there as needed. He stated they will not be transfenal all at once. they will be
transferred as they are needed in the Foundation .
Mayor Bums noted they did have a presentation by Mr. Tryba and be found it quite impressive . He
opined tbal we have to handle our monies card'ully and we llllll many questions for them as far as their
duties are concemcd. But. be said. be thought it was a favorable resolution. that we need to move ahead
on the Foley's building.
Council Member Gamn noted it is a two S1cp process. where we are going to have a 30 to JS day
evaluation for an hourly raac and if tbal is suc::cessfuJ and we 1111M: forward, lben we will have another
pic:cc:. And this is like one group of monies. as oppmed to two pieces of .-ies. which. be Slated, is the
part be doesn't undenland.
City Manager Sears noced tbal Mr. Rick Kabm can probably review dial. But. be said. in essence we are
proposing tbal the~ be given to the Foundation with the iJllallioa of hiring Tryba as the architect.
And. be explained. that covered within that $625,000, is the initial pbaK of Ibis. a 30 day review of the
feasibility of the project . He asked Mr . Kahm to talk about that in a linle bit more detail and what that
entails.
Engineering Manager Kahm advised that the fine phase is a feasibility pllAR and David Tryba talked
about. this evening ll Study Session. looking ll the building and looking al the mechanical and eleccrical .
But. be Slaled, a biger issue than that. that be will be getting into, is the programming and functioning of
the building. Mr. Kalun mainlained that they need to be looking al ialCI durin& tbal time frame. such as.
can we put the couru in tbll building with the other 1111e1 and can it be dfeclive. will the baildin&

Council Member Bradshaw asked what the $625.000 goes for . Mr. Kahm advised that that takes us all
the way through the project. Ms. Bradshaw asked if that will go to build out. Mr. Kahm said absolutely.
that includes the prdimiaaly phase. the schematic phase and then you get into all of your design. which
would be done by mid-summer. And 2!1% of that fee is the COIISUUClion, administration phase of the
project. So, be noted, that takes him all the way through the project. it is a complete contract.
Council Member Garrett said that it is his undcl'Slallding that $23,500 gets us this preliminary review and
then we will have ID look at a contract and approve the contract. He commented that it seems they should
only be IDOYing $23,500 today, and then ifwe go to final contract then we move the rest. Council
Member Bradshaw agreed.
Dircelor Gryglewicz advised that this approves the entire appropriation. But. as they have done with the
Foundation before. they have only moved money from the City General Funds as needed to the Foundation
and they have upialecl Council with reports on their expenses periodically. So. he Slated. they would DOI
expend that money without Council's knowledge .
Esseatially, Council Mcmber Waggoner said. they would approve the full transfer now. but they will only
do it as needed. DiftlCIOr Gryglewicz Slated that is right.
And if. Couacil Member Habenicht asked, you decide you want to do something after Council said they
didn 't waat ID. could Council SIDp them and take the money back . Mr. Kahm responded affirmatively .
Council Member Bradshaw llOled she was son of confused based on that presentation and she asked if Mr.
Kahm could clear it up . Because. she staled, he said that then he goes 10 a percent of the construction
cost. Mr. Kahm advised that his overall contract is at $625,000 and that is based on a percentage of
OOlllbUClioD and what they have done with him is nego(iatc his contract. His original proposal was about
SI 2!1,000 higher than where it is setting today. But. his contract calls for a fee of 8 \I,,.-. based on a $5
million COIISIJUClioa contract. If it goes up to as high as S7 million his fee drops. on that next S2 million.
drops to 7 '1,% and ifwe were to go above S7 million on COIISlnlction his fee drops to 6 \I,,.-•. So. Mr .
Kahm stared. it is a sliding scale. the larFr the project, the smaller his fee . Council Member Bradshaw
DOied the pmzalaF is smaller. but she does 11111 know ifthal is a smaller fee . Mr. Kahm acknowledged it
is a smaller pmzalaF. He advised that typic:ally this is the way thcle type of projects wort and the
$62!1.000 is i-1 ca the S7 million CODllnlclion project. Mr . Kalua advised they have talked with David
Tryba ~ ud they have wriucn the number of S6 millioa in the COlllnlCt and it can be changed by
mutual agrecmcnL But. be noted, we have a provision in there that. if he designs a project that comes in
bid higher tban wbal we have IIPIJIOWd, then he redesigns the project to come up with a project that can
be built withia our budgel.
Counci1 Member Bradshaw asked if this is jllll for the City Hall, jllll the Foley 's building. Mr. Kahm said
yes .
Mayor Bums commeated that several cities have decided that couns should 11111 be in the city hall. but
rather with the police administration building or something like thal. He said he knows that l...altewood
and Litdeloa are doing that. He asked wlw if we should clocide the couns should go somewbeR dse and
then we have aaodler C05l to have that. Mayor Burm asked if they -taking all of that into
couideraboD. Mr. Kahm ..a that is wlw thcle ftnl 30 days will tell us. 1h11 it will tell III wbctller this

determined that this doesn't make sense. Mr. Kahm opined that the 30 days will lell us that. So. Council
Member Bradshaw said. we will have those answers in March.
Mr. Kahm SlalCcl that is a critical answer to have for your developer, as well. Sooner or later we have to
decide what is going into this project and it is critical that we have those answers by March 20"'.
City Manager Sears advised Mr. Kahm that the question Council is asking. which he waso 't sure he
undcrslood either, was if Council could give authori7.ation up to a cenain level. $23,000 or $30,000 or
whatever, for the first phase and then come back to transfer the additional funds for the second phase
without i.mplcling the c:oatract that you have put together with them. Mr. Kahm SlalCcl that the contract is
actually for $625,000 in pbasing and we can tcrminale the contract at any point. So, in effect, if Council
goes forward with this first pbale. which is $23,500, that that is all they would be expending until Council
gave them further approval. So. he advised, what Director Gryglewicz is saying that Council is
authorizing the expenditure. but the money never moves to the foundation . So. he said. Council is really
making that decision March 20111, which is a Friday and the day they put in his contract.
The resolution was assigned a number and read by title :
RESOLUTION NO . 48. SERIES OF 1998
A RESOLUTION FOR TifE TRANSFER OF FUNDS FROM TifE GENERAL FUND TO THE
ENGLEWOOD ENVIRONMENTAL FOUNDATION. INC .

COUNCll. MEMBER BRADSHAW MOVED, AND IT WAS SECONDED, TO AMEND THE
RESOLUTION TO CHANGE S625.IOO TO 525,000, ON AN AS NEEDED BASIS.
Council Member Nabholz said she thought that was real sman.
lbcn, Council Member Bradsbaw DOied. they will sec what the 30 days tells them and then they could
authoru.c $600,000 after thlt.
Council Member Hlbeaic:bl llaled slic would probably Ian lounls that. except when they were doing the

and she thought it -beDdicial to dlcir being able to negocialc in our besl intercsa . Ms . Habenicht
advised that * fdl comforlablc with die raolulioa • its prclCIIUd.
Mayor Bums agreed ud COIIIIIICllled that he doesn 'I think it makes that much difference . When they say
they would Ct1111C back to Council for any further transfers of funds. he asked if that was right . Mr. Kahm
advised thlt they an: not speDdillg -than the $23,500 ualess Council desires, after 30 days. 10 go
fornrd with the projecl ... ...iurely. Mayor Bums ulled what about increments after that. S11ppD1C they
go IO the ftdl COlllnld. would thcy come back IO Council for llapd increments after that. Mr. Kahm
adviled thlt the aJDUact is bnlllea illto pieces. for illllallcc the ICbemalic phalc is I 0% or 15% of the
cwerall fee ud the CDIIIIIUc:UOD admiDillnlioa oa the tail Clld -25% of the OYCrall fee . So. he noted, ii
is bnlllea Ullo thole pieces.

Mayor Bums asked if Council appnwes the coa1ract if we go beyond the initial phase. Mr. Kahln staled
that Council would authorize the Foundation ID ID forward . But, Mayor Bums said, they also have a

of side by side. City Manqer Scars acknowledged that is a legitimate. real concern. He said he has had a
discussion with Tim 1.-ard. Marilee Utter and Bob Simpson and he thought their intent was that they
were going to scpanae tbcmsclvcs from the cb'elopcr or the way they were going IO work with the

is something he can't work through them on. then he needs IO come sec him, the City Manager. and then
they need to work as a team to Uy IO resolve the situation. City Manqer Scars stated that he made that
clear to Tim Leonard, because he: has the ability to go over his head IO Council on some basis. if again, it
is of impact IO this cb'elopment. He pointed out they all just want to make the development the best that
they can, but on a day to day basis. he: docsn 't really sec that he is going IO be worting with Skip Miller.
as he: sees that that would really be their responsibility. Mr. Scars advited that what he: has asked Bob
Simpaon to do, and askcd them to do, is focus on issues that will be of concem . as this gets developed.
Such as parting, the l1'lllllpOltalion that goes through there. the way the Plaza works. and the Foley· s
types of things . He noted there are probably six or seven i55UCS and on those i55UCS he: would sec them
working pretty much as a team.
Council Member Habenicht asked City Manager Scars if he: felt the direction would be clear if Council
passes this motion. Mr. Scars stated Council could add some language into that motion. if they would like
to, that says that Council feels that the developer should also be present as a panicipanl with !he Ciiy
Manager. He opined that would be fine. He commented that since they had Iha! meeting he: dido '1 gel
them to review that. but that is his intent on how this is going to come logethcr. Basically, Council
Member Bradshaw said. what we have is a City team and the developer's 1cam . She was advised 1ha1 Iha!
was right.
So, Council Member Waggoner said. there is not a big bunch of people in bctwccn. Council Member
Bradshaw commented that we are just all on the same team. Mr. Waggoner said then it docsn ·1 take ten
days IO go from one end to the other. Council Member Bradshaw asked how long it should take. Director
Simpeon advised it sboulcln't take but about two minutes. which is a telephone call.
Council Member Waggoner stated he has some qucslioas he: is cona:med about. He said he: doesn 't know
whelbcr it has been explained IO Council. by either of the tcams ... thll he koows they talked about selling
pads at the last meeting, doing this and doing that ... but that he: is not clear who is going 10 own this
property after we are all done. One time. he noted. they talked about transferring the ownership. because
they didn 't want the City IO be owner for any period of time. because of liability and lhc cost. and now we
are talking about selling pads or we have talked about selling pads. He askcd who will own this properly
after this is all done. Director Simpson Slated that it has been the intclll as we have continued forward
that we own the parking within the entire project. That has been kind of the intenl since our beginning
and it still remains that way . Council Member Waggoner asked who owns the pads. the buildings . Mr.
Simpeon advised that lhc pads may be owned by the developer or the individual tenants. Then. Mr.
Waggoner asked. how do we asswe ounelvcs that we are going to keep this area in good rq,air and
looking nice without an overall owner. either. be it lhc City or be it the dcvelopcr. or a homeowncr's
association type of thing. He qUCllioncd how we can guarantee ounelvcs that. Actually. Director
Simpeon advised. those are 101DC of the methods, there are mechanisms that are out there that can be put
into place that 8IIW'C thole kinds of things. Council Member Waggoner asked when those will be
addressed. Mr . Simpson Slated thole will be addressed and it is a mechanism similar to a homcowncr's
association and they become a set of covenants that aovem behavior and tenant houn and kind of the
appearanc::e and all of thole kinds of things aaoc:iated with tenants. So that will be addrcsaed. he advised.
a we tDCM forwmd. 11lcn, Council Member Wagoner said, we will haw: another maiDICDUICC
agreement li1lc we bad on Cinderella City for the parking. Direcl0r Sillll*)II swccl that he has never seen
that. Mr. Waggoner said he was sure lhc City doesn 'I want to Slripc it. sweep it. clean ii and repair ii .

Mr. Simpson said that we would probably, on the parting ponions that are owned by the City, end up
having to create a maintenance agreement for the parting areas. Council Member Waggoner said then
any tenant would pay into the maintenance agreement, that type of approach. Mr. Simpson stated they
will sure work on that part, make sure wc get some RVenue generation .
Director Simpson opined it is their intent that wc maintain long tcnn control over significant ponions of
this propaty. Council Member Waggoner said that he knows. wi-we were entering into a development
contract. that was one oftbe things wc discussed quite heavily. Mr. Simpson staled that is comet and it
slill remains an impol1anl goal.
Council Member Waggoner empbasiu:d that he saill ~ we arc duplicating dl'ort. Dim:IOr Simpson
said that is true. He said the thing he would say is lhll thc,e iuy be -cluplicatioa of effort. but he
opined that wbal is crealed is some -that have ~ IJUll to allow this project to move
forward . He acknowled,ed thcle is -cost aax:ialed widl that duplication. but there is also some
significant progress that is occurring bec:aule of it.

(a) Mayor's Choice
I . Mayor Bums advised that several Council Members went on the RTD tour of the Southwest
Corridor Light Rail Project last Thursday. He thought they were really impressed by the presentation. the
slide presentation in Littleton. and about how fast this project is moving. He pointed out it is on time and
it on budget and $4 7 million is in the administration budget this year for this project . which RTD is quire
pleased with. Mayor Bums advised that he. City Manager Sears and the Mayor. some City Council
members, the City Manager and AssiSlaDt City Manager from Littleton. met today with Representative
Dan Schaefer and discussed this with him. Mayor Burns said that he continues to be very supportive of
the Southwest Corridor Light Rail and he did swe that the $4 7 million is just the budget proposed by the
administration and the Congress actually puts the budget together. He advised chat Representative
Schaefer said that once these projecls liW1 they aJlllinuc to be funded. the only caution is ... as they saw in
the paper today ... is the unfoltUDale pllling of Russ Tarvin. a very supportive RID board member for the
Southwest Corridor. He DOied thee was an illleraling scheme. described in the paper. about bow his
rrplacerncn~ was going to be sdcclCd depending on bow many rcgisten:d voters there arc in the City and
County of Denver and bis disuict and Arapahoe County, and who selects. Mayor Burns opined that it is
very important to have Mr. Tarvin replaced by someone: who supports light rail. because there arc still
CDOUgh votes down theR to put this project in some jcopudy. For. he thought. if that board ever voced to
reject funding. from the cum:nt budget. it would be a very haz.anlous thing for this project. Mayor Burns
advised that he is pcnonally calling board members of RID to just touch bue with them. The
transportation conferaice thaa Ibey attend every year in Washington. will be held March 811, to 1111, and
they will be visiting Conpas then and of coonc their Chair. Mr . Ca1dara. has been vocally in opposition
to this corridor and written letters uying to reject funding and encowqe Congress to reject funding and
so fonh. Mayor Bwm DOied thaa be fdt a certain amount orthaa is going to be going on. so he feds it is
imponant for us to lleep in touch with thole board memben and lleep in touch with this process of the
rcplaccment of Russ Tarvin. He said be has ukcd thaa we IIClld a card from the City to his family. because
we unanimously supporu,d Guide the Ride and we have all supportOd this project.. Mayor Burns noted the
paper reported on the meeting that was bc1d in August al the nuning home after he had the stroke. and he
stated, that wu an heroic cfl'on for him to go to that meeting. Mayor Bums advised he was there and it
was something for Mr. Tarvin to get through that and he has gone to a couple of mecungs since . lbat
meeting appnwed $62 million in new COlllnlcU for the Southwea Corridor and Mayor Bums pointed out.
it wu a pivotal meeting. So . he said. he lhinks the City II very thankful 10 Rua Tarvin for the wort he
has clone .
2. Mayor Burns swccl that he also c11joyed going to the VFW Post 322 6S• Anruvenary pany on
Saturday . He noted Council Member Nabholz came over too and they met the membcn and celdlraled

with them. He commented that it is quite an organization and they have many members of that group.
that have been around for 40 or SO years. since the second World War. that have put in countless hours of
service to the community through that organization.
3. Mayor Bums advised that on February,.,. he was elecled the Chair of the Metro Mayor 's Caucus
for the next year. He said they did have a discussion at that meeting about the legislation in the Colorado
Legislalum to change the governance at RTD. He notcd it was not on the agenda. but it was brought up
for disamion and he cautioned them against taking any stand on that because he thought that was
dangerous for the City of Englewood and it was not a good thing to do. They did not take a position on
that. And sure enough. he said, as they saw a few days ago, that bill was killed in the Senate
TransponalioD Committee. So, he opined. it was fortunate thing to do. 10 not take a position on that He
Slated 1h11 so far it hasn 'I taken much time and Pauletta Puncerelli went 10 the meeting with him and was
very helpful . Mayor Bums said he does not see it as taking a great deal of time. He advised Council he
will tell them, and he did at that meeting, that if there is anything being discussed 1ha1 he lhinlts the City
of Englewood should take a particular position on. or thal he should not take a position on himself, that
his first obligation and loyalty will be to Ibis City as far as that body is ~nccmcd.
(b) Council Member's Choice
(i) Council Member Nabholz:
I. She said she also wanted 10 say congratulations 10 the VFW on their 65th Anniversary .
2. She advised Council !hat the third and final meeting to discuss the General Iron Works plan and
what the neighborhood would like and would not like, will be Tuesday the 24th . from 7:00 p .m. IO 9:00
p .m . at Bishop Elementary. She said she also has !hose flyers IO pass oul.
3 . She noted she is looking forward to the Code Enfon:cment meeting IOmorrow night in regard to
the Public Nuisance Ordinance. Ms. Nabholz commented that hopefully they can tum the heat up on that
4 . She stated that she spoke to Susan Clark in regard IO landlord registration and she thinks they
need to bring it up at Study Session fairly quickly so they can address ii once again .
S. She advised that her constituents have also asked if. after these meetings. she could possibly mee1
with them once a month . Ms. Nabholz said she needs to ftnd oul if that is accepcable. If she could meet
with her c:omlituents once a month. in the Library or somewhere, just keep it a set time . whatever is
convenienl for them. whether they show up or not. She stated she is more than willing 10 do that.
6 . She stated that she has quite a few code problems and she is really getting frustrated with this
problem . One of them is the Gothic and the second one is a citation that was given 10 3057 South
Broadway in regard IO merchandise on the sidewalk. however the saore right next door was not cited.
Council Member Nabholz pointed out that we have sandwich boards up and down this City and banners.
She said she feels that ifwe are going IO cile one. we might as well go up and down Broadway and cite the
rest of them . She stated that Carl M. Duncan. the CPA wbo owns that property, would like for her 10 read
his letter into public. Ms. Nabholz read "To Whom it May Concern : Please be advised that the real eswe
located at 3057 South Broadway. Englewood, Colorado, has a building which is set back about ten feet
from the sidewalk . This area. on which there is no building. but which has outdoor carpet. does not
belong to this City or any other municipal authority. but l'llher is private property. owned by my client.
Joan L. Duncan . Her rcnlen pay for lbc lplCC 111d are IUlborizcld IO use it in any way to p,omote their
business." There again, Council Member Nabholz said. if our ordinance Slates "everything off the
sidewalks" then lets enforce ii.

She advised that in the 2800 block of South Sherman. in the alley between Sherman and Grant.
approximately four hoUles down from Amherst, there are six vehicles in the alley. One has 1996
Colorado license plata and two others have no license plates at all. There are approximately four
unlicensed vehicles in front of the house and they belong to the same individual that lives there. Ms .
Nabbolz swell the lady that lives behind this house can't even get into her own garage . She said she
undenlands that the lady called the police the other night and when they called back they said they could
no1 locate the problem. So she was very frustrated. At the comer of Bates and Broadway • towards the
alley. all cl Broadway and Lincoln. on the nonb side of Bates, tbcre are so many large vehicles where this
individual is working on them. that a lot of times you canDOI have two way traffic on Bates. You cannot
come out cl the alley and successruuy make that tum to head west.
Mayor Burns asked about the mning there. C.ouncil Member Nabholz advised that it used to be a
limoulinc service and the guy works on cars. it is right behind the check cashing place and it is a problem.
But. Mayor Bums asked. what is the zoning. what is allowed. Ms . Nabholz said she was not sure. she
would have to look that up. She commented that she thought it was B ., Council Member Bradshaw
advised that it is B-1.
Council Member Nabbolz Slated she is sorry. but that she also feels the fiustration of this. that she has to
continually bring up the same addresses over and over. She noted that she is a Council liaison. as is Mr.
Garrett, on the Code Enforcement Advisory Committee and she thinks it is time we turn up the heat and
we act on this stuff and quit talking and roll up our sleeves and get to work.
(ii) Council Member Bradshaw:
I . She advised that she wrote a thank you note to Bob Tonsing fo.-the RID tour. She told him he
really knew bow to throw a tour.
2. She staled that she bu a question and a conc:cm about 5IUdy seaioa items. Ms. Bradshaw opined
that Council needs to deal with ooe thing per 5IUdy eaioa, • she fdt cbclled tonight with the architect.
Either that. she said. or they need to meet Ill S:00 p.m. if they have two items. She Slaled that just wun 't
fair, as she didn't feel they finilbed with the Housing Authority, and they didn't give the architect his time
either, and she clocsn 't like to fed rushed like that. So. she Slid. they are dealing with two matters that
she considers cootnwersial. "time to think" matters and they need to limit those on study sessions.
3 . She noted she had the complaint apin. and this was the same complaint raised by Bill Belt on
the 26•, about transients in BcUcvicw Park . She asked if there was any enforcement going on . She said
she tbougbt we were going to look Ill that. They are by the shelter and al one time they were having wild
gllbcrinp there . She comtnenfed that she didn't know that they can have that in the winter, it has been a
little chilly, but that she was sure in the spring that beau up . She noted there is also a nudist in that area .
Additioaally, she said. Ill ooe time people were burning the shingles oll'that one far shelter, in the
fireplace, to Ila)' wum. Ms. Bradshaw said she doesn't know if that has happened lately, but she
suggaled they might cbeck to see if our shingles arc still there.
4 . She staled she would like the Code Enforcement Committee, or someone. to look at increasing
the penalty for graffiti. She said she still thinks that is a viable thing.
S. She said that sllc. Mayor Burns and Council Member Clapp need 10 set up at time to talk about
the Housing Audlority ~-

1. She said she would also like to congratulate the VFW . as she also attended. She noted she had a
very busy schedule Saturday, but she was then: towards the middle. to congratulate them. and she thought
it was imponant.
2 . She said she thought it was real interesting that Council is talking about code enforcement. She
noted she brought up a situation with Cricket Thicket, at the last regular session. and talked about the
King Soopers trucks. Apparently. she said. code enfon:cmcnt went out and spoke with the two owners.
and according to her Council request packet. they said that there was DO problem. basically. Well. she
advised, she ca1led the owners today and ukcd if this wu resolved to their satisfaction. Ms . Clapp stated
the owner told her she couldn't believe that it would say that there is DO problem, that that is not what she
told Joya: Parsons . The owner said she told Ms. Parsons it wu a coocern. as her business is growing and
she would like to know where they draw the line with public parking and storing business vehicles. The
owner stated that as a citizen she would not be able to come down there and park an RV and she asked
what wu the diff'emu:. Ms . Clapp commented that we have a very unhappy business here and that she is
very disappointed that code enforcement did not handle it a little better ,than that. She maintained tlia1 we
arc talking night and day between the response of the business owner and what she is being told in the
Council request. Council Member Clapp stated she can't tell Council how disappointed she is with that.
It concerns her a great deal and she wonden:d how many other code enforcement requests she has made
that have come back to the contrary.
Council Member Habenicht advised that several of them attended the Chamber of Commerce's annual
meeting and at her table that was a topic of discussion and there was concern about those trucks. She
stated she heard it from a different business as well. that it is really detrimental .
Council Member Clapp stated she would have to agree with Council Member Nabholz. that perhaps this is
something that should be looked at in another area of the City . Ms . Clapp opined that Chris Olson docs a
good job as a Safety Services Director and she is sure he is a fine officer and a fine fireman . But. she said.
she docs not know if he is good at code enforcement.
City Manager Sears suggested that Council make this a subject of a Sl1ldy ICSlion . Poccnlially, he noted.
they have a fRc night the 23"', next Monday night They bave a ~ night that night but he said. they
could focus oa code enforcement or they could make it a lllbject for tbe 2"" and go lluuugh the list of sbon
tenn ilemS and focus in on each of the issues they bave l2ised, or bow we addras code enforcement
issues. He advised be would be happy to move in thal dinx:lioa if Coanci1 would like to.
Mayor Bums asked how that dovetails with the Code Enforcement Advisory Committee and when: are
they moving at this point Council Member Bradshaw aslled if Council is doing their wort . Council
Member Nabholz said no. not necessarily, that she thinks there needs to be some direction from Council.
But. she noted. she thinks it is interesting wben Council lalb aboul tbe gnffiu removal . or some of the
regisUations or public nuisance ordinances. that they want to k!c* al. thal they give it to the Code
Enforcement Advisory Committee or the Clean. Green and Proud CommiRiM . Ms . Nabholz maintained
that sooner or later Council has to Slcp up to the plalc and tallc 1~li1y. That she said. is what they
have hired these people to do. She opined the -,, the beaer. t1lal they take a loc* at this.
Council Manber Habenicht maintained that this &aka tllan badl IO a coaccm t1lal Ille brings up every
once in -bile thal has to do with the adminillnlive policy onli-tlull we have J-.i and the way
our depanmcnu bave chanpd willy-nilly, fnlm here to t1lere. 6-llcrc to there and code enforcement
has been pmcd oil like the bid boy or somdlod)'. Crom a. dcpulmcal to uotber. to tJus to tlull . She
said she really docs think that Gary Sears is new and he has IO loc* at how he wants tlus 11 10 be done and
she docsn '1 know if Council should be rushing him IO -quaaions. BuL she poillled out that docsn '1

mean we sbouldn 't be addressing the code issues and all of that, but she is thinking that rather than trying
to do a really quick study session. that maybe it is one of these adminisuative things that be needs to be
looking at ... where docs code enforcement fall into place and bow is ii being done ... while addressing the
immediate needs, but maybe looking al the overall problem.
Council Member Bradshaw noted that it used to be in the old. old days, even before her other term on City
Council, that policancn ... when they were out and about ... would take notice of code violations too. if they
bappeDed to DOticc it Now, she Slid. ii seems that wc spend a lot of our time doing things that arc pretty
obvious, like the property she reported across from Miller field. The guy said take me to c:oun. That was
bis 1'C1p0111e to that. Ms. Bradlbaw acknowledged that is a lot of City rcsourccs. but we are in the City
and we nced to make our City a pretty place to live, a safe place to live.
Council Member Nabholz staled she agrees with Council Members Habenicht and Bradshaw, that City
Manager Scars needs to take a look a1 it and wc also need to do the enforcement aspect of it and noc the
selcclive enforcement. She emphasized that this is making her crazy . Ms . Nabholz commented she felt
like Council Member Clapp, as she got back that her request was completed and there were no problems.
She staled she has a problem with that. because she physically goes out and takes a look al this stuff.
Council Member Clapp said that her major concern with that is not only did lhc problem not get resolved.
but she is being told one thing from code enforcement and another from the property owner .
3 . She said she would like to pass along her thanks to Division Chief Vandcrmec for putting out the
sman car. Obviously, she pointed out, from the complaiaCs of its prcscncc it was needed. She advised
that she would appreciate his enforcement in that area.
(iv) Council Member Waggoner:
I . He advised that tonight be pve to City Manager Scars an audit that was sent over from EDDA.
He said be was 11111 sure who that was suppmed to go to, but he assumed Mr. Sears would find the proper
party. Mr. Scars UIUl'ed Mr. Wagoner be will delcrminc if it is Dan Brownan. Frank Gryglewicz or
Bob Simpma.
2. He noted be had copied. and !ICIII out to each Council member. Cinderella City comments from
Clifford Wcinbcrgcr. He said it was made clear at the EDDA meeting, that that was not the EDDA 's
polilioll. that thal was only Mr. Wcinbcrgcr's polilioa.
3. He said regarding the cncroacbmcnt, that OD the cncroachmcnt agreement it says that they have
to indemnify, bold harmless the City. Council Member Wagoner asked if they shouldn 't give the City a
CCl'lific:ale of imurance. !isling the City as an addilimal ilmlnd. City Anorney Brownan advised that WC
haven 'I done that. but WC can look inlo it Mr. Wagoner poilllCd out that if somebody gets hun OD that
wall, it would 1e1:111 like wc should be an addilimal insured on lhcir inswance policy, so wc don 't end up
funding IOIIIClhiq that WC are IIOl llippoecd to do.
(v) Council Member Habcaicbl :

2. She advised that sbc attended the CML legislative workshop and policy committee meeting. Ms.
Habenicht said she just wanted to draw attention to the two son of surprises that came out of the policy
committee. One was the recommendation from staff to oppose Manha Kmatz's health insurance bill.
She said sbc thought it was very interesting that the discussion chose to take no position in monitoring.
Perhaps. Council Member Habenicht suggested. since she is our rcprclClllative wc may want to let her
know that wc were not suggesting opposing her bill . She opined that could be very positive.
Also, sbc noted, Senate Bill 6, Standing, confers political subdivisioas Slallding to assen or defend
property or contract rights with each other. The recommendation, the VOie, from the growth committee.
was to oppose, but it was very highly controversial. She said sbc tbougbl that maybe this is something.
that if our City Attorney is not aware of. that maybe wc look into it to sec what implications it has for
Englewood. Bccausc, she noted, it is dealing with municipalities or Olbcr govcmmcnt bodies having
standing with each other. It is bow wc relate to South Suburban. bow wc rclatc to Sheridan, how wc
relate to Highlands Ranch. bow they relate to us and sbc opined. wc nm! to look at it carefully and make

COUNCIL COMMUNICATION
Date Agenda Item Subject Case OR-98-01
Comprehensive Zoning
Ordinance Amendment -
March 2, 1998 10 a i Landscape Standards
Initiated By Staff Source
Tricia Langon, Neighborhood and
Neighborhood and Business Development Environmental Technician
COUNCIL GOAL AND PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION
There has been no previous Council action concerning this matter.
PREVIOUS PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION
"' -
The Planning and Zoning Commission held a Public Hearing to consider proposed modifications to the
Landscape Standards of the Englewood Comprehensive Zoning Ordinance on February 3, 1998. The
Commission recommended approval of the proposed Ordinance.
RECOMMENDED ACTION
9'lllf recommends that City Council set a public hNrlng for April 8, 1988, tdconsider public testimony
on the proposed Ordinance. The proposed ordinance meets Planning and Zoning Commission's goals
and addresses community feedback received during the public participation process.
BACKGROUND, ANALYSIS, AND ALTERNATIVES IDENTIFIED
Englewood Planning and Zoning Commission requested that staff research and prepare landscaping
standards that would focus on "greening" the City and provide minimum standards of quality and
quantity consistent with similar communities within the metropolitan area. Additional goals include
administrative clarity, fairness and equity, environmental improvement, and improving the aesthetic
environment of the City. The Commission felt that establishing landscaping requirements in anticipation
of the redevelopment of Cinderella City would showcase standards for the entire City, as well as,
strategically prepare for subsequent spin-off development from the project.
Staff reviewed the current Englewood landscaping ordinance, identifying deficiencies and areas
requiring administrative updates or revisions . Key deficiencies included a lack clarity, minimal or no
standards for living plant material quality and quantity, minimal or no existing landscaping credits or
water conservation allowances, maintenance responsibilities, and fee-in-lieu alternatives. Staff
reviewed and analyzed landscape ordinances from various communities, both locally and nationally.
Research of landscape and planning literature related to landscape ordinances were also examined.
Interviews and discussions with landscape architects were conducted to address current available and
practical options .
The draft ordinance was circulated for review and comment to the following City departments: City
Attorney , Parks and Recreation, Public Works, Safety Services, and Utilities. Staff met with the Greater
Englewood Chamber of Commerce and distributed drafts to Englewood Downtown Development
Authority and several Englewood business owners .

Case #OR 98-01
Landscaping Standards Ordinance
Staff requests that the Planning and Zoning Commission review , take public testimony, and
provide comment on the proposed Englewood Comprehensive Zoning Ordinance Title 16,
Chapter S , Subsection 26, 1.andscaping Standards .
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends that Planning and Zoning Commission recommend to City Council to repeal
existing Title 164-18, l.andscape Ordinance, of the Comprehensive Zoning Ordinance, ap-
prove Case #OR 98-01, and enact the ordinance as Title 16-5-26, Landscape Standards .
BACKGROUND :
Englewood Planning and Zoning Commission requested this ordinance be initiated .
In preparation of this ordinance, Staff reviewed the current Englewood landscaping ordinance.
In that review, deficiencies and areas requiring administrative updates or revisions were identi-
fied . Those regulations were determined to be substandard or inadequat.e to deal with develop-
mentor redevelopment of Englewood's existing urban environment. Key deficiencies included
a lack clarity. minimal standards for living plant marerial quality and quantity , minimal credits
or water conservation allowances, tenants not responsible for maintenance, and fee-in-lieu at
applicant's choosing .
The overarching goals of "greening" and providing minimum competitive standards of quality
and quantity consistcnl with the metropolitan m:a were derived from discussions with Planning
Commission. Additional goals included administrative clarity, fairness and equity , environ-
mental improvement , and improving the aesthetic environment of the City
Staff also reviewed and analyzed landscape ordinances from various communities, both locally
and nationally . Research of landscape and planning literature related to landscape ordinaDces
were also examined . Interviews and discussions with landscape architects were conducted to
address current available and practical options.
Based on the above process , a preliminary draft was written . This draft was circulated for re-
view and comment to the following City departments : City Attorney . Parks and Recreation,
Public Works , Safety Services, and Utilities . All departments provided input. An independent
landscape architectural firm then reviewed the ordinance . Staff met with the Economic Devel-
opment Conuninee of the Greater Englewood Chamber of Commerce and distributed drafts of

the ordinance for public review and comment to the Englewood Downtown Development
Authority and several Englewood business owners in business and industrial zone districts .
From this review process additional areas were addressed and a second draft was distributed
for funher review . Staff feels the attached final draft meets Planning and Zoning Commis-
sion's goals and address community feedback received during the public participation process.
Notice of Public Hearing appeared in the Englewood Herald on January 23 , 1998.
ORDINANCE PROPOSAL;
Major points of the revised Landscape Standards ordinance follow :
• Expanded Application:
More propenies arc potentially affected by adjustments to criteria which activate the
landscape requirements. The City goal is to increase the quantity and the quality of
landscaping in the City . A balance is created between more propenies being affected
with those same propenies receiving credit for existing trees, and laodscaping in the
ROW and parking area not being counted toward the total landscaping requirement.
The activation mechanism is lower, but propenies have more options and allowances
with which to work.
• Sets Minimum Standards and Requirements:
The spacing, quantity (number) and quality (size and condition) of plant material is
specified . How materials are planted and maintained is addressed . The I .andscape
Plan requirements are detailed. The current ordinance sets requirements for non-living
materials (i .e . rocks and mulch) but stops shon for living plam material standards . The
current ordinance requires that the I Jfndscape Plan be of "sufficient detail". This does
not provide adequate direction. as applicants prefer clearly written and defined re-
quirements. It lacks uniformity or consistency of submissions.
• Provides Equity and Fairness:
Full compliance of every section of an ordinance is DOl always practicably feasible in
every siruation . Therefore. options need to be available so that the intent of the ordi-
nance can be met in those unique siruations. Alternatives include alternative compli-
ance plans. credit for exiting trees. ROW and parkiDs area laodscaping allowances, fee-
in-lieu , and administrative relief. Options for unique situations should be available .
SUMMARY;
The proposed revisions provide minimum quality and quantity standards and equitable means
10 meet those standards in order to provide quality competitive development in the City . They
recognize Englewood's built urban character by offering consideration for space limitations.
credit for existing trees. buffering of adjacent land uses and compliance alternatives . They also
promote creative design and provide flexible alternatives .
Landscaping brings aesthe1ic . environmental and economic benefits and softens the harshness
of the urban experience . Trees and plants add appeal and value to the community , improve air
quality . moderate temperatures and reduce erosion. They unquestionably contribute IO a sense

4. Reason for FOURTH AMENDMENT
I.S Additional Design Investigations and Final Design
0.0¥9 ....
1) "Line of Sight" Controls for Union Avenue Pump Swion -A hard-wire control
sysiem has been designed for the Union Avenue Pump Swion. The controls are for
controlling chemical feed equipment placed in the Old Pump Swion. The hard-wire
symm entails burying a conduit in the soil between the Old Pump Swioa and the
Union A venue Pump Swion. A change to "line of sight" control system has been
requested by the City due m concerns reprdina the poor soils conditions pomntially
causing constnlction, opemions and maimenanc:e problems. A "l~f-sigbt" system
does not have buried conduits and will therefore eliminate the potential problems
rewed to the soils .
2) Conformed Documents -Conformed documents will be prepared to inc:orporaie all of
the addenda items and the original dcsip information into one set of documents. The
addenda items include Addendum No. I, 2, 3 and 4. Addendum No. I is the
drawings and specifications for the electric:al. insaumenwion and control designs for
the project. Addendum No.s 2 and 3 primarily comain responses to questions from
the bidders and designs of some miscellaneous items. Addendum No. 4 primarily
contains responses to questions and commena from the City's Building DepanmenL
Addendum No.s I and 4 -a direct result of the time constraints imposed on the
project by the deadline for the SRF Loan Application. Had there been more time,
most of the contents of Addendum No.s I and 4, and portions ofNo.s 2 and 3, could
have been incorporated into the original desi", infonnation. The conformed
documents will facilitate the construetion of the project by clearly presenting the
requirements to the Contractor. •· •

The agreement with Centric/Jones states that the City of Englewood will provide ten
sets of design documents to them for their use. In addition. the City of Englewood
and Camp Dresser & McKee Inc . will need copies for their use.
3) Flood Wall Redesign -The flood wall has had to be redesigned to : (a) improve the
accessibility to the underlying sanitary sewer for the Southgate Sanitation District.
111d (b) accommodate the re-alignment of the newly consttuc:ted bridge over Big Dry
Creek. In response to requests from the Southgate Sanitation Disuict, the transition
of the flood wall where it crosses over the 60-inch sanitary sewer wu redesigned.
The redesign involves opening up the width of the transition to improve the access to
the sanitary sewer.
lbe flood wall will tie into the newly constructed Windermere Street bridge over Big
Dry Creek. For the original design of the flood wall. the ENGINEER wu provided
with COOT documents for the design of the bridge. Discrepancies in the bridge
design infonnation were discovered during design. To correct the discrepancies. it
was necessary to resurvey the area around the bridge to obtain an as-constructed
topography . Due to site constraints presented in the as-consuucted topography, the
flood wall will have to be redesigned where it anaches to the bridge. The redesign
will involve another crossing of the sanitary sewer owned and maintained by the
Southgate Sanitation District. There are a number of alternatives for crossing the
sanitary sewer. The alternatives either impair the accessibility to the sewer or have a
bigb consttUction cost and possibly impair the use of some of the facilities at the
Allen Waser Treatment Plant. A study of the alternatives is necessary for discussions
and negotiations with the Soutbpte Sanitation Disuict. Once an alternative is agreed
upon. the redesign can then proceed.
4) Carbon Supplier Options and Agreements -Operating conditions at the Allen Waser
Treaanent Plant have rendered a situation where the warranty originally proposed by
tbe Calgon Corporation for the service conD'Kt for the granular lctivaled carbon was
uaacceplable to the City of Englewood. The Calp Corporation wu initially
unwilling to relax the warranty conditions. ln response to this situation.
iavestiptions and negociations were pursued with a second porential carbon supplier,
ACMS. Calgon Corporation has since chaqed its wamnty to meet the needs of the
Allen Waser Treatment Plant. As a result of its negociations. the City of Englewood
now has two potential carbon service companies to chose from for the project.
S) Phosphate System -Treated potable water from the City of Englewood's (City) Allen
WIier Treatment Plant (WTP) is delivered to customers via a nerwork of water main
piping referred to as the •distribution system.• The majority of the distribution
sySlem is comprised of small-diame1er (e.g., 4 inch) unlined cast iron pipe, which has
been in service for several decades. Over time. the effective diameter of the pipes in
tbe disuibution system has slowly been reduced by tuberculation buildup on the
imemal pipe walls. This has been observed throughout virtually all reaches of the
distribution system . The tuberculation limits the ability of the City to deliver the
required flowrues and/or pressure required by its water customers. Funhennore,
periods of high demand incre:ue the flow velocity in the disuibution system. resultin&
in shearing of the deposited tuberculation materials. These materials are then
resuspended in the wuer traveling through the distribution System and are observed
, ,

·-•
• •
at customers' raps, which results in numerous "red water" or high-turbidity
complaints from customers.
A two-part program has been proposed by the ENGINEER to mitigate these
dislribution system issues. It is recommended that the City continue to mectwuc:aJly
clean affected sections of the distribution system piping followed immedwely by
application of a liquid phosplwe solution to prevent corrosion of the resulting bare
mecaJ. The second part of the proposed plan includes continuous feed at the Allen
WTP of a different liquid phosplwe solution to further control corrosion and prevent
deposition of particullle mauer in the disaibution system.
Details of the distribution system issues and the recommended corrosion c:ontrol plan
are included in die repon tided Ciry of Earlewood. Colorado: Corrwion C01111"0I
S"'1ly (CDM 1998). Thar repon a!so includes a recommended set of tests to be
performed by the City to derermine the optimum chemicals and doses to be used. It
is imponant to note that this program is expected to reduce the occurrence of "red
water" at customers' raps. but such occurrences will not be completely eliminaled.
Mechanic:aJ cleaning of segments of pipe in the distribution system will continue to
release deposited rruuerials back into the water system for a period of a month or
more following the cleaning. However, the "one-time" application of chemic:aJ
following the cleaning is intended to reduce the severity of this effect. Upon
commencement of the preventive program, it is anticipated that over time, the
frequency ofmechanic:aJ cleaning of the system will be reduced, and subsequent "red
water" occurrences will likewise decrease.
ENGINEER will prepare a preliminary design letter report for the proposed chemic:aJ
storage and feed facilities to be installed for continuous feed of phosphare solution at
the Allen WTP. Final design will be llllhorized., if necessary, after the testing
program.
6) Emergency Generator. The Allen Wuer Treaanenc Plant is provided with elecaical
power throup tw0 feeders from the Public Service Company. The initial design
considered usina one ofdlese tw0 feeders as an emerpnc:y power source to die
aaanent planL Durio& the review oflbe desian by the City's Buildin1 Depanment,
it wu determined that a stand-alone eme.pocy paeaaru. is required, insread of one
of die feeders. to power the ventilalion equipment in die hip hazard areas.
7) Sodium Hypochlorite lnvestiptions 111d Report • The operations staff at die Bi-Cities
WISteWller Treatmenc Facility reviewed IDd commented on die final desian ofdle
sodium hypochlorite feed and sto~ facilities. Their review commencs called for
facilities significandy different than whir wu designed. The as-designed syS1em wu
reviewed, documented. and justified.
8) Assistance with Belt Filter Press lnvestiptions • The existin& belt filter press is 10
years old . It hu been recently discovered that a slishdy-used newer press is available
for purchue through a nearby sanimion dislrict. Preliminary nqocwions indicate
that the press can be purchued for SI0,000 to $90,000, approximately half die cost of
a new press . Further investipions an aecessary to determine the feasibility ofusin1
die press in the new facilicy . An allowance ofSI0,000 is authorized to aaist die
CITY with the invesciptions.

1.6 Additional Bidding Phase Services
I) Exiended Bid Period -In an effort to attract the top local contractors, encourage
competitive bidding, and obcain the best possible bids, the City of Englewood
maaded the bid opening dale for the project by one month. During the exrended bid
period, the ENGINEER imerviewed contl'IC10rs, prepared additional addenda i1111DS
raponding to questions from tbe bidders, consulted with tbe City, attended meetings,
and provided management and adminislration of the extended bidding period. The
City of Englewood's efforts to extend the bid period has paid off. bids were received
&om five top local comracron, the range of bids wu very llln'OW, and the low
bidder's price wu considerably below the Engineer's Opinion of Probable
Comlruction Cost.
2) Final Document Printing -Reproduction and disaibution of tbe design documems to
tbe bidding conll'ICtors, plan rooms, and vendors is essential to aaracting interested
panies to the project. The design documents were sold to tbe9e parties to cover the
associated cosu resulting in a nominal credit to the City of Englewood.
I. 7 Additional Consuuction Phase Services
I) Exlended Services During Construction • In response to requesu from several of the
bidding conD'llCtOrS, the City of Englewood exleDded the connct time for completing
tbe project. The extended COlllnCt time will provide for more time during the low
flow season. tbe time when most oftbe critical consauction activities will take place.
Giving the bidding c;omraaon more time during the low flow seuon has
undoubcedly reduced bid prices and will likely reduce the polm1tial for COIISU'Uction
c:Jaims. The coanct time bu been exmnded to 619 calenclan from 499 calendar
days (an increue of 190 calendar days). For tbe time exrension, tbe ENGINEER

Intergovernmental Cooperation
RECOMMENDED ACTION
Staff recommends approval of a bill for an ordinance authorizing an intergovernmental between the

BACKGROUND, ANALYSIS, AND ALTERNATIVES IDENTIFIED
Staff and City Council have had negotiations with South Suburban to reach agreement on a proposal

Recreation District at Cornerstone and Belleview Parks. This agreement will provide the following:
• Residents of the City of Englewood will receive South Suburban resident fees at the batting cages
and the miniature golf facilities at Cornerstone Park.
• Residents of the South Suburban Part< and Recreation District will receive City of Englewood
resident fees at the new aquatics facility to be built on the Home Lumber site.
• Both agencies will work cooperatively to address parking issues so a fourth baH field can be built on
the northern portion of the Cornerstone site . Currently, three ball fields are located on this site.
The parking should also allow for better access to the Park Shelters located in the north western
portion of Belleview Part<.
• Staff from both agencies will coordinate promotion of cooperative resident programs through their
program activity guides.
A payment from South Suburban to assist in providing City of Englewood services to the
Cornerstone site is not included in this agreement. That issue is addressed in a separate
arrangement.

aewiew « the Proposed Housing Authority Agreements
Members of the City Council have asked that I review the proposed housing authority
agreements and proposed transfer of the employees of the City to the Housing Authority.
Although I have not had the time to do an exhaustive review of the issue, I believe that
the recent dialogue with Housing Authority Board members and the City Council gave
both sides a better understanding of the role and responsibility of the Housing Authority
and Project Build Program. I also believe that it is important to hold a meeting of the
committee created at the study session of Council and Housing Authority members
before the agreements are approved.
It appears to me that there are two issues to be considered. The issue of management of
use of project build funds, and the management of the project build employees.
I' -
Project Build employees can either remain with the City under NBD or be transferred to
the Housing Authority, depending upon the requirements of the program. Once the
committee meets and determines the best use of the Project Build funds, the employees
should be supervised by the agency responsible for the implementation of the program.
For your information, I have attached a copy of a report from Cheryl regarding the uses of
Project Build funds since its inception. Issues such as eligibility, houses to be scraped
and reconstructed, use of funds for rehabilitation, and the future use of funds should be
considered by the committee.
In regard to the management of employees, I believe the plan of transfer of employees
was proposed to make sure that Project Build employees reported and worked for one
supervisor. Since the Housing Authority was responsible for the Project Build program, it
made sense to me that employees should be supervised by the Housing Authority. If , as a
result of the committee meeting, the employee's mission changes, then the employees
should be supervised by the entity responsible for implementing the program. The City

,.
Council should also consider the space limitations of City buildings. Currently, we have
no space in the City Hall for Project Build employees. Using the former Impact Team
Building at the Miller Field is one alternative. Clearly the Housing Authority employees
involved in the Section 8 homes and Public Housing ought to be employees of the
Housing Authority and report to the Director.
One other alternative would be to proceed with the agreements, transferring the
employees to the Housing Authority, and define by contract the responsibility of the
Project Build program with the Housing Authority. Such an agreement could include the
eligibility of pa11icipants in the program, types of houses Jo be selected for
redevelopment, number of homes to be recoostructed. apd limits of subsidy.
Because of the newness of the program, and the availability of funds, City Council can
direct the use of those funds in any way you desire. I believe that mission of the program
needs to be defined, with guidelines for use of those funds. Then the issue of supervision
can be determined.
I hope that this review has been helpful in your consideration of the agreements. If you
desire further investigation. please let me know.

1998 Budget, and 1998 Appropriations on final reading October 23, 1997. This action supports
economic development by moving funds from the Project Build Fund to the General for economic
enhancements.
A memorandum was sent to City Council on October 15, 1997 regarding the background of this action.

BACKGROUND,ANALYSIS,ANDALTERNATIVESIDENTIRED
This is in response to a comment Council Member Habenicht made at the September 15, 1997 Budget
Retreat regarding the Project Build Fund. She had mentioned that Council had designated a portion of
the funds transferred to Project Build Fund for economic enhancement programs. Susan Clan<
researched what amount, if any, of the Project Build funds were designated for economic
enhancements. It appears, from the June 6, 1994 Council minutes, that $320,000 was designated for
economic enhancements. Further research concluded that no funds have been used for economic
enhancements as designated by Council.
The 1998 Budget includes various business enhancement programs administered by Neighborhood
and Business Development staff. Staff would like to proceed with actions to transfer $320,000 from
Project Build to the General Fund to help cover the cost of the economic enhancement programs.
City and Englewood Housing Authority staff met on November 3, 1997 to discuss this action.
No alternatives were identified.
FINANCIAL IIIPN:f
The transfer will reduce the Project Build Fund's Contributed Capital by $320,000 and increase the
fund balance of the General Fund by $320,000.

COUNCIL MEMBER HABENICHT MOVED, AND IT WAS SECONDED, TO APPROVE
CONSENT AGENDA ITEMS 10 (a) (i) • COUNCIL BILL NO. IJ, ON nRST READING.
Council Member Waggoner Slaled that he has a question on page 4. paragraph D (I) (A) and (B). He said
he was curious as to why those percentages, like 4<Wo, 25% and 25"., were different and why it is 40"/o of
the lot area on the single-.family ddachcd, single-family attached, two-family uses. Neighborhood and
Environment Technician Langon advised that the single-family ddachcd, single-family attached and two-
family, in all zone districts, would be the same. No matter what mne district you fell into. So, she said.
for example if you happen to be in a single-family ddached home that was in an industrial area. you
would still follow the guidelines for all other single-family homes. Ms . Langon staled ii is an across-the-
board llltCmpl to address landscaping for the single-family, across the City . so they are not separate, in
different mnes .
Council Member Waggoner asked why 1ha1 should be any more than the multi-family uses ... 25%. Ms .
Langon Slaled that. generally, ii would be because with multi-family they would be larger buildings.
Council Member Bndsbaw said ii would be like apartments . Mayor Bums noted you would have a IOI
more building aJYelllF • the site dlan you would with a single-family home .
Council Member Habellichl med that she clarify ii is 2591. of the property, not 25% of that which is
available for landsc:aping. Ms . Langon Slated that is right, ii is 25% of the total site .
Council Member Bradshaw med ifthere is anything that shows what was in the Code before the
changes. Or, she ulted. are these all changes. Ms . Bradshaw commented that she can go through her
Code, which is noc her favorite thing to do. but she CXJUld do that She asked if there is anocher way that
Council cx,uld see what was changed. Ms. Langon said. if there was something specific, she would try 10
answer that.
Mayor Bums uked. as Council will have a public hearing and there will be another reading. if they CXJUld
do that in between. He noted they have done that before.
Council Member Bradsliaw lllllcd she would tlppffl:iale • line version . Council Member Habenicht
oommcnted thll she always lilies III w that. Ms. Langon Siami lhe would do that. Ms . Bradshaw said
that would be pctfcct .
Council Member Waggoner med if this actually came up • a lllldy a:ssion . He said he doesn ·1
remember seeing this at • study session . Mayor Bums oommentcd that Council had this in front of them
before. Ms. Langon advised that the Planning and l.oning Cmunission has been going over ii for some
time. Mayor Bums said he thought the Planning and l.oning Commission came to a Sludy session .
Council Member Waggoner pointed OUI that Council didn't go over the council bill or anything. like they
usually do for something that appc:an to be a far reaching thing. He staled it seems that Council should
have ii at • Sludy session before ii actually comes up on the agenda. City Manager Sears advised they can
do that, put ii on• study a:ssion agenda . He said he was noc sure where they are and that the 16'" is the
next study session. He commented that he didn't think there was a timing issue . No. Ms . Langon said.
and she CXJUld have a line by line . Council Member Bradshaw said she would appreciate lhal .
Mayor Bums said if they are going to do that then they wouldn '1 pus ii on first reading. Council Member
Waggoner agreed they wouldn 't, that they would go ahead and have• study session and pus ii on first
reading later. Mayor Burns commented 1ha1 they wouldn ·1 set the public hearing tonight either. because
they aren '1 passing ii on first reading.

So , Council Member Bradshaw asked, Council has to pass it on first reading and then set a public
hearing. Mayor Bums said if they are going to pass it on first reading then they will set a public hearing.
If they arc going to have a study session then they will probably not pass it on first reading. Because, he
said, they don't want a study session between first and second reading. Ms. Langon noted they wouldn 't
have time to publish. Mayor Bums said you wouldn't have time to publish and do all of that between the
first and second reading.
Council Member Waggoner Slated that he just thinks there are a lot of questions that need to be answered
on this.
Council Member Bradshaw commented that shejusl c:ouldn't believe that no one showed up at the
Planning and z.ooing meetings when they were considering this.
Council Member Waggoner noted that this affects a lot of residential area .
Mayor Bums stated that he got the impression that Planning and Zoning has done quite a bit of work on
this. Ms. Langon adviscdthat they had a study session. some review and the public hearing. OT at least,
Mayor Burns said, maybe the staff did a lot of work on this. Council Member Garrett advised that it has
been an issue with Planning and Zoning for over two years. they have been talking about this for two
years. Ms. Langon noted it has been since about October for this ordinance.
Council Member Nabholz Slated she is kind of like Council Member Waggoner is. for the simple fact that
she doesn't know where the numbers came from . She said that is what she had highlighted 100, the
diff'erence between single-family, multi-family and business. Also, she asked. on page 14 , when ii comes
to mainlenancc, if this will be another-enforcement issue . She asked how ii will be enforced . Ms .
Nabholz staled that she 100 has a lot of unanswered questions.
Mayor Bums said if the consensus is to have a study session, then they should have a study session.
Ms . Langon advised lllat the answer to the ques1ion from Council Member Nabholz and Council Member
Waggoner. the 40% is tbc same from the cummt ordinance to the proposed ordinance ... the same number.
So. Council Member NmholNaid, that is not dlangcd.
Mayor Bums commented that the bill was IIIIMd and scconded . Council Member Habenicht noted she
c:ould probabl)' rcmovc: the motion and Council Member Bradshaw said tllll she would remove: the second.
But. Ms. Habenicht noted, she had a queslion to ask before she would do that Council Member
Habenicht asked if there is any c:ona:m about timeliness. bccaulc ol somc of the rcdcvelopmcnl projects
that we have in place. For example, she said, Cinderella City. the nonheasl uea and Broadway. She
asked if this is something Council should go ahead and pass on first reading. Ms. Habenicht noted she
also has several questions and that is why she wanted to pull it.
Council Member Bradshaw commented 1ha1 this is where she gets confused. She said she thought first
reading was to bring it to the public's a1ten1ion, then Council could have a study session on ii and they
c:ou1d make amendments. But now, she noted, it's like Council doesn't do anything until they have a
study session on it. Mayor Bums said he thought Council c:ouJd do whatever they want. Council c:ould
have a study session between them and then just delay lhc second reading and the public hearing. City
Altomcy Brou.man pointed oul that their only problem comes if they act a public hearing, they need 10 set
it just far enough back that they can have their study ICS5ioci . He noted they arc actually looking into
probably April before they can have the study session .

Council Member Waggoner Slated that there may be some major changes before they would even want t.o
set the public hearing.
Council Member Habenicht pointed out that she still hasn't had an answer to her question. Which is, she
said, is there timeliness on this in terms of some of things we are doing. And one of the problems is that
we don't koow what we have in existence right now.
Mayor Bums asked if this is a major rewrite. Ms. Langon Slated it is a major rewrite. So, Mayor Bums,
noted, showing lines really wouldn't benefit Council that much. Ms . Langon advised that she could do a
breakdown, a comparison . She DOied it won't be exactly line by line, but it will be a comparison where
one number -40 and now it's JS.
Mayor Bums askcd if Council could pas it on first miding and not set a public hearing. City Attorney
Brotzman advised they could do that cxcqll they would have to bring it back up for Council lo set the
public hearing.
Council Member .Habenicht staled that she wanted to say that generally she supports it, that ccnainly she
supports what they.a: doing. blll she feels tKrc are a few things that need to be tweaked.
Mayor Bums commented that he also basically supports it. He suggested Council pass it on first reading
and set the public hearing off to when they are assured they can have a study session in between.
Council Member Bradshaw asked if it would be in effect by the time we stan redevelopment .
Council Member Waggoner pointed out that if there are any changes to it then they have to stan all over
anyway ... ifthey are substantive challflCS . He asked City Attorney Brotzman if that was correct. Mr.
Brownan said yes.
Council Member Habenicht Slated she still does not have an answer to her question. City Manager Scars
commented that Ms . Langon or Director Simpson could address that. but that he was not sure. Ms.
Langon advised that it is focused across the City. She noted, as Mr. Ganctt said, that it has been coming
on for two ycan. Ms. Langon Gpincd that iws a..aiity o( life issue and it would be as to how soon
Council would wait to1111dRathal.
Council Member Habenicht said that Council has the benefit of having somcbody who has sat through the
process a little bit. She askcd that Council Member Garrett enlighten Council a little bit on this. Council
Member Garrett advised that this issue came up in October as he was walking out the door. But . he
stated, for over a couple o( years there was a concern. cspccially when Trolley Square was taken down .
He advised that a lot of people on the Planning and Zoning Commission wanted to have some kind of
landscape in the parting lot just to make it look better. Which then led to a lot more discussions about the
landscape problems and son of our lack of updated landscape standards. So, Mr. Ganctt explained, it has
been in sort of an evolving process over the last a,uplc of years. of trying to come up with some standards
they thought would help the quality of life in Englewood and that was for businesses as well as residential .
Council Member Habenicht Slated she would like to ask Mr. Garrett's opinion, as a fellow Council
member and somebody who has been following this issue for a long time, if this is something that he
believes they should probably moving forward on and would it have some impact . She asked if he would
suggest that Council go ahead and pass it on first miding and then make any amendments or what have
you . She asked if he felt it was okay to wait a little bit. Ms. Habenicht said that she would like to have his
opinion. Council Member Garrett advised that their concern. at the time. when they were talking about it

last year, was to get it into place before Cinderella City 5lartcd lo move. He Slated that was a lot of it, and
when the South Broadway piece 5lartcd lo fly, they wanted 10 have this in place.
Then, Council Member Bradshaw said, the more they delay . the more ii will impact quality of life.
Exactly, Council Member Garrett said.
Council Member Habenicht said okay, then she would not withdraw her molion. Council Member
Bradshaw stated she would not withdraw her second.
Council Member Waggoner llilalcd he wanted to point oul. again. that if then: are substantive changes then
they may• well not pass it on firsa reading. Mayor Bums noted that they don't know how subslantive
they are going to be yet .
Council Member Waggoner asked if they wanted him to bring up one. just so they might know. Council
said yes.
Council Member Waggoner asked that they look on page 6, at the bottom of the page, number 4 . "all
landscaped areas shall have an approved irrigation system." He asked if that means that every residential
house in Englewood. that their landscaped areas will have an approved system . Ms. Langon referred
Council to page 13, Q . Irrigation. She noted lhal defines an irrigation system. which includes a hose
attachment with 100 feet of hose lo lhe landscaped areas. So it doesn '1 have to be an installed.
underground system.
Council Member Waggoner, referring to the next one, number 5, ~all landscaped areas adjacent to
vehicular areas shall be protected from vehicular lratTJC by concrete aubing or other devices accq,table 10
the City which prohibit vehicular aa,ess to and encroachment upon these areas ." Mr. Waggoner said let 's
,. assume that every house or every residential home has a driveway leading to the garage. He asked if that
means that all driveways have to have curbs on each side to prolCCl it from somebody running over the
landscaped area . Ms. Langon Slated that was a good point. She explained that they looked at ii as an
issue of a parking lot . Council Member Waggoner said 1ha1 he underSlands 1ha1 .
Mayor Bums pointed oaHllal this is the excrasc they will go through iCthey have a study session .
Council Mcmbcr •Wagoaer said that is right and if there an: subslantive changes then they will have to
stan all over . Mayor Bums commented that they could pass ii on firsa reading and then they would have
to do it again.
Council Member Habenicht asked if this is for all existing properties or if it is for new dcvelopmcnts,
~ or redoing, within the City. Ms . Langon advised it is for any property that would be
activated by one of the applicability standards, al lhe front . Ms . Habenicht asked that she answer that so
she undcrslands ii better. Potentially, Ms . Langon Slated, ii could be every property. but there are a
number of what they hope would be safeguards that with existing landscaping. or a number of other
things, that not every propeny would have 10 come up lo these Slandards. Because. she said. if you were
going 10 add an addition lo your home. but you dido ·1 qualify under the size. this landscape ordinance
would not affCCI you . Council Member Garrell and City Allorney Brotzman noted applicability is
addressed on page 2, B.
So, Council Member Habenicht said, ii wouldn't apply unless something kicked in. Ms . Langon said thal
was right Ms . Habenicht commented that cvaybody is not going to have to IO OUI and redo and 111Ca11m
and all of that. Thal ii is only if they are going to do something new and ii is for new developments. Ms .
Langon said yes and &he explained that there are clauses for existing propenjcs if you are going to add on

to your home, if you can demonstrate that you had existing landscaping that met or exceeded the
requirements, then you arc done.
So, Council Member Habenicht said, everybody who has a driveway isn 't going to have to redo their
driveway according to this. Only if they do something else that requires one of these things to kick in .
Director Simpson suggested, in the interest of time, that they go ahead and set the public hearing date for
April 20111 and cnsurc they have a study session that addresses Council's questions. He swcd he knows
that Ms. Langon is moR: than prepan,d to go OYU this in minute detail as wcU as answer most of
Council's quations. He opined that most oCthcir quations can be answered. He pointed out that they arc
not ayiDg this is 100% perfect. that he doesn't think any ordinanc,c can Ft there, but if they have 101DC
di1e1111ioo on this they would really appreciale it. He said he knows that this ordinance bas been in, kind
o(, clilCllllioo iJr the lat ~ oC yan witll the Planning Olmmiaion Mr. SilllpWI noted tllcy
dilCllad it with Council lat Augull when they were talking about large formal. retail design. guidelines.
So it bas been aJDSidcrcd and tbouglll about. He advi9Cd that OIIC of the R:a10111 it is SO imponaal to this
cx,mmunity is because we arc facing sipificant rcdevdopment isaies. along South Broadway and in, and
adjacent to, Cincbdla City. Thal is what the Planning Commission and staff felt was important, he said,
and they arc brillplll6il forward as a qualily al life issue . He noted they would appreciate it, if Council
Id the hearing date far enough in advance ad they would answer questions in the interim . He asked if
that would be possible . That way, he opined, they would answer them moR: fully and moR: comfortably
for C-ouncil, in moR: of a dilCllllioo format .
C-ouncil Member Bradshaw swcd that Ms . Langon's handling them, from all angles, very well right now .
Director Simpson agreed that she is and he said that he can tell Council that Ms. Langon has worked very
bani on this. Thal this was a very cliffiadt ordinanc,c to prepllR!. He stated that one of the reasons. he
bclicws, that they didn't have too ~ pcoplc show up at the public hearings, is because Ms . Langon
was out with the pablic, worting very bani Uying to Ft enough input in advance of these hearings. He
said they have tried to do a liUlc bit al that homework and they will be moR: than happy to go over that

Council Member Waggoner asked when this might come up on study session . He was advised it will be
April 13th. Council Member Habenicht asked if that would give Council time, if they make substantial
changes. to redo a first reading. She asked if they c:ould do a first miding and a public hearing that night,
if they had substantial changes. She questioned if that made sense . If they have substantial changes,
Mayor Bums said, he dido ·1 think they would have a public: hearing that night, that they would be back to
first reading. City Attorney Brotzman said that was a,rrcc:t. Council Member Habenicht said if they are
hying to make it move forward for substantial c:hanges, maybe they should have a study session prior to
the 6th so that oo the 6th they could pas a DN lira reading if nea:ssary. Mayor Bums said if they c:ould
fit it in. City Manager Sears advised they ~ the issues oo Cinderdla City, landlord registration, code

the last mocting of the Metro Mayor's Cauc:us . He said it is important because the FCC may preempt our
loc:al zoning. dec:ilioll making. powers ~ telec:ommunic:ations is c:onc:emcd . He stated that local
communities wen: advised to mow: promptly ahead on onlinanc:es to proecct themselves. But, he noted.
perhaps they c:ould meet earlier. City Manager Sears said if they c:ould meet al S:00 p .m . on April 6th and
that would give them an hour to review this. Council Member Bradshaw pointed out that they have
March 30th wide open. Mr. Sears agreed. Counc:il Member Garrett advised he will not be here, he will be
on vacation. He commented that they c:ould do the telec:ommunications that night, as he can't participate
in that anyway . Mayor Bums agreed that was an idea. City Attorney Brotzman explained that Ken
Fellman can't make it that night, that we are hying to wort around the Aivada City Council schedule as
well . City Manager Scars said March 30th is fine if that will wort for the Council. Council Member

he keeps thinking back to the requirements they put into the Swedish Hospital contract. whereby any
future need for improvements to signals caused by the increased development shall be borne by, essentially
then, it was by Swedish Medical Center. He said he was wondering whether or not we should not have
that same thing as a oondit.ion on this one. As, he noted, we are not going to require them to do anything
now, that if indeed we find out that traffic has Men generated. that they have to pay for, or at least share
part or the burden, for improving the signals for the South Subwban gystem. Council Member Bradshaw
asked if that would be Section 5 . Council Member Waggoner said it could be Section 5.
Council Member Waggoner noted there is also a problem with Section 3, in that it says ··residential rates
for the use of all facilities in Cornerstone Part" and our agrccmcnt with South Suburoan is just for the
baiting cages and the miniature golf at Cornerstone Park. So. he stated, they definitely have to amend that
to read batting cages and miniature golf. Rather than saying the use of all facilities. it would say use of
the batting cages and miniature golf in Cornerstone Park .
The City Clerk was asked to read Council No. 82 by title:

for an ordinance approving an lntergovcmrncntal Agreement with South Suburban Park and Recreation
District regarding cooperative resident programs was considered.
The City Clelic was asked lo read Council Bill No. 14 by title:
COUNCIL BILL NO. 14, INTRODUCED BY COUNCIL MEMBER BRADSHAW
A BILL FOR AN ORDINANGE AUl1iORIZING AN INTERGOVERNMENTAL AGREEMENT

COUNCIL MEMBER BRADSHAW MOVED, AND IT WAS SECONDED, TO APPROVE

Director Black advised that they have been wolicing with South Suburban for a number of months 10 try 10
get Englewood residents special consideration al facilities over at Cornerstone Palic . There was a sub-
committee of City Council. the South Suburnan board and staff and the Parks and Recreation staff that
met . The meeting they had. he stated, is the foundation for this agreement before Council 1onigh1. He
said that ii basically says that City of Englewood residents will n:ceivc South Suburban resident fees at the
batting cages and the miniature golf. South Suburban residents will receive City of Englewood residenl
rates at the new aquatic facility that ~i ll be buill in the future al the Home Lumber site . Director Black
staled that the City of Englewood will wolic with South Suburban staff in terms of wolicing out parking
issues. He noted they have a strong interest in completing their fourth ball field over there. We will also
work with South Suburnan in that they will help promo1e some of our programs and we will try 10 help
promote some of their programs, in our quanerly activity guide . He said that is kind of the gist of the
agreement and reiterated Iha! there was a subcommittee of Council members there involved with setting

up pan of this agrccmcnl Mr. Black advised that he would be happy to answer any questions Council
may have rclatcd to this agreement.
Council Member Garrett asked if, by voting for this, they arc voting to build a fourth ball field or to just
discuss building a fourth ball field. No, Director Black advised, they would not be voting to build a fourth
ball field. What the agreement says, he stated, is that wc will work with South Subuman to try to wort
out parking issues. so they can build a fourth ball field . But in order for a fourth ball field to be built, he
said, it is his understanding that they would have to come back through the PUD process . Mayor Burns
said yes they would.
Council Member Habenicht asked if, by approving this. they arc approving the swimming facility .
Din:aor Black said no, that what they arc saying is, that ona: that facility is built, and they hope ii will be
built, South Suburban residents will recieive City of Englewood rates.
Also, Mayor Bums pointed out, parqraph 5 llalcs it is subject to annual review , approval and budgeting
and it may be tenninatcd by either party if that approval is not given . Director Black advised that is
correc:t . So, Mayor Bums noted, there arc a lot of outs on this.
Council Member Waggoner said he bad anolher question on that particular paragraph. In the council
communication, under financial impact, ii says wc do projea a significant impact on revenues to either
agency . Bui, he noted, wc have lo approve ii through the budget process each year ... with there being no
financial impact . Mr. Waggoner commented ii bothered him somewhat . Mayor Burns noted that was a
good question. that he would think there would be mmc financial impact . Director Black advised that the
financial impact he was talking about was if South Subuman Parks and Recreation District charged
Englewood residents the same rate as they charge their residents there would not be a large amount of
money ... probably anywhere from a quarter, fifty cents or I dollar ... -where in there. It wouldn 't be a
large amount of money that would be a great impact and vice versa with the City of Eaglewood . But.
Council Member Waggoner said, you would never notice tluit, there wouldn't be any budget change for
that. Director Black said that was correct. Yet. Mr. Waggoner pointed out, wc say that the agreement is
subject to annual review, approval and budgeting. He noted he docla't UDderaalld the~ pan of
it.

the farm propcny. It is simply a one-sided agreement. Council Member Habenicht asked when we will
have that. Council Member Bradshaw noted that Frank Gryglcwicz said he would look that up tomorrow.
Director Gryglcwicz advised that he went back and checked with Steve Dazzio, our Chief Accountant, and
he said to his knowledge it hasn't been received. so they will have to look into it.
Council Member Waggoner asked how that is enforocable, if we don't have some kind of an agreement or
somedling in writing. City Attorney Brouman explained that they have a paragraph regarding payment
in lieu o(taxes, in the land use issue, in the other ordinance ... scction 4 of Council Bill No. 82.

And, Council Member Bradshaw noted, there is no discussion. Mayor Bums said that is right. a motion
to table docs not allow for discussion .
Council Member Clapp asked if she CXIUld ask a technical question, not having to do with this, just a
technical question. She questioned if she understood correctly, that to bring this very same proposal up to
Council again, they would need two-thirds of a vote of Council to do that. City Attorney Brotzman said
that is correct. Or, he noted, they CXIUld continue it to a date certain.
Mayor Pro Tern Habenicht stated there is a motion to table on the floor and she called for the vote.

Mayor Bums said he just wanted to clarify. that what this means is they can 't just put it on the agenda like
they did tonight. That they have to actually have it on the agenda as to whether they want 10 bring it up at
another time. City Attorney Brotzman said that is correct .
However. Council Member Habenicht said. it is her understanding 1ha1 if something new would come up
and be redone, that ii could go on as a new thing and this would just die a natural death. Then, City
Attorney Brotzman explained. you would stan over on first reading. He stated Council can deal with it
either way. They can either bring it otTthe table or if they l'CYllmp the agreements they can start with new
agreements. Council Member Habenicht said thal would be as a first reading and then this will just never
come up again, that is another option. City Manager Scars advised that he thought they would bring it up
after they meet with the committee. That. he pointed out, is his intention. to bring it back to Council after
the committee meets and then have the Council dccidc at that time whether they would want to consider
the issue. But. he noted, hopefully the committee will mcct in the next week or two and based upon what
their review is of the issue, they will brins,it back to Council. Then Council can make a decision as 10
whether they want to proceed or not . •
Then. Mayor Bums said. proccdurally. if the committee makes ra:ommendations. Council will decide
whether they want to follow the n,c:ommenda6ons or not . Cil)• Manager Scars said that is correct.
Council Member Habenicht asked who is on the committee. City Manager Scars advised 1ha1 Council
Member Clapp. Council Member Garrett and two members of the Housing Authority, DdJbie Medloclt
and Don Bobeda are on the oommittee.
Council Member Clapp Slated that when they put the together the committee. it was her understanding it
was put together just to address the Project Build and where we were going 10 go with lhal. Whether we
were going to put the money into the business dis&rict or whether we were going 10 continue putting 1ha1
money into the residential . Ms. Clapp pointed out that lihc didn '1 belic\·c ii \1115 to decide on these
contracts. She said she believes the vote tonight was really a dec:iSIOII oo these and 1ha1 Council pretty
much spoke on that . that they arc not comfonable with \l'hat is oo lhe llblc. She asked if she was the only
one that walked away with that undcntanding of the committee C-1 Member Waggoner said he
thinks so, becalllc when he was lalking about. ud having Gary S-S Fl r.-Jaar with. tbcle agRICIIICIIIS •

So, Council Member Nabholz said, Council Member Clapp's understanding was that the committee was
to specifically address Project Build. And, Ms. Clapp said, what Council should do with those monies.
She stated it had nothing to do with the voting matters that Council just took care of tonight. That, she
reiterated, was her understanding of that committee.
Council Member Garrett said he fdt Council Member Waggoner was tabling to hear what Gary Sears'
recommendation is. That, he DOied, was his understanding. He commented there could be discussion of
the committee that might be useful to City Manager Sean in making his recommendation. Council
Member Clapp said okay, she just dido 't understand that. Mayor Burns said he thought Ms. Clapp was
right about the committee.
Council Member Clapp staled that the point she was making was that the committee was not set up to
make a recommendation to Council on all of this. these contracts.
Council Member Garrett advised it was his understanding, which was similar to Council Member
Clapp's. except 111111 what Council said at that SlUdy session was that they need to look at all kinds of
different categories el people who lllight need assistance, from businesses to all kinds of residential type
areas. He stated they were going to look to see if monies were available, and maybe Project Build money
needed to be moved there or not moved there. But it wasn't specifically dealing with these contracts.
(c) Resolutions and Motions
(i) Director Gryglewicz presented a recommendation from the Depanment of
Financial Services to adopl a resolution approving a transfer of funds from the Project Build Fund to lhe
General Fund. He stated that this resolution would move $320,000 from the Project Build Fund to the
General Fund to be used for future economic enhancements that would be required to be approved by
Council. He advised that he sent Council some information and some minutes from the Council meeting
on October 18, 1993 and basically at that time, in the budget for 1994. $320,000 was earmarked for
economic enhancements. He opined that, because of changes in personnel, thole monies were never used
for that. Director Gryglewicz noted that Council Member Habenicht brought this up at the budget session
this year, as she bad remembered some of the monies were designated for that purpose. And that is where
this originated ud 'Why it has been bnJaghMo Conncil tonight.
Council Member Waggoner asked if be was saying this was transfemd into the Project Build fund and
now they transferring it out . Director Gryglewicz advised that if Council approves this resolution, that is
true.
Council Member Waggoner asked why they would transfer it out. Director Gryglewicz staled that it was
originally earmarked for CCIIIIOlllic enhanccmenlS. He advised that the discussion was to do a program
similar to Project Build. but for the business sector. Because, he DOied, as he said. changes in personnel
management, the program was never brought forward . He explained that those people that bad brought
this forward left the City and then the money mycd in Project Build and was used for other purposes.
This resolution would bring that back and the Neighborhood and Business Developmenl personnel would
use that for programs. but only with Council's prior approval .
Council Member Habenicht asked. since Project Build is. in essence. what ii always has been. and this
money was earmarked in Project Build for cc:onomic de\'Clopment purposes. why does ii need to be moved .
Director Gryglcwicz advised thal it is his unden&anding that the people womng with Project Build did
not have the incentive or background to do that program. He noted be can · t speak for that personally. that

he is just looking al bringing the money back for use by general City projects regarding business and
enhancements.
Council Member Clapp said ii is a little confusing lo her 10 have this on the agenda at this point in time.
Or maybe not to have ii on the agenda, but to go forward with that. Because, she stated, they have yet to
ddcnnine what they arc going to do with the Project Build funds. Council Member Garrett said he
thought that was what this committee was about. Ms. Clapp said that is right.
Council Member Habenicht opined that it is l'Qlly critical in terms of what the intent of Project Build was
and why this fits in with Project Build. She said she thinks that is l'Qlly important. Council Member
Bradshaw asked wbal that means. Ms. Habenicht advilCll thal her point is that Project Build includes this
functioa as well and tbcsc funds si-ld be available based on anything that they need to do for economic
dcvclopmcnt reuons. She said that is the way she understands it and she doesn't know why it has to be
moved and why it can 'I be utiliud for the purpose that it was intended within the fund that its in.
Council Member Waggoner suggested Council let City Manager Scars look at that when he is looking al
the rest of ii. City iAllorncy Brotzman advised that the reason this was on the agenda tonight, was because
they were anticipating that the agreements ~isted above on the agenda, including the Project Build, would
pass. That is why it was brought forward tonight.
Council Member Bradshaw said if there arc other things they would like to use that money for, then it is
not in the General Fund, it would remain in Project Build. She noted that might be why it would be a
good thing lo move that if you need the money somewhere dse.
Council Member Clapp asked if, they nccdcd the money. could they get into the Project Build fund,
without a motion, if they redefined the boundaries. Council Member Garrett said he would guess the
question would be if they have to do the transfer. and then they approve ii on a project by project basis
anyway, if they could do all that in one evening. Which means they could just move it if they need it.
Director Gryglewicz advised that it was his understanding that the Neighborhood and Business
Development people would come to Council lo use that money for specific programs, so the money would
DOI just be used without Council's permission.
Council Mcmbel"'Gurctt said his question 15, if that is the cue, if they don't 111CM money tonight, and
somebody comes in and needs SIS,000 ... can they move SIS,000 and approve that particular project all in
one evening. That way they do it pieccmcal. if they happen to need to money . Dircctor Gryglcwicz said
sure .
In other words. Council Member Habenicht said, if they decide they want to do something 10 improve
some commercial property or to deal with some commercial property . it would be appropriate 10 move that
they would do that and eamwlt Project Build funds for that. Or move the money , Council Member
Garrett said. however they need lo physically do that at the time.
Council Member Habenicht pointed out that that is how she understood Project Build worked .
So, Council Member Waggoner asked. if somebody 1110YCS this and ii docsn 'I get a second, then it dies for
lack of a second and then they can bring it up anytime. City Allorncy Brotzman said that is corrcc1 or
they may simply want to table this one. the same as they did the others.
Council Member Habenicht said she docsn 't know that they want 10 table it . but maybe Just not move it
She asked if they could just not move ii. City Attorney Brot7man said yes

I . Mayor Burns advised that he attended the mccling or the northcasl neighborhood al Bishop on
the 24• with Ann Nabholz, Gary Scars and Mark Graham. He said he thought it was a constructive
IIICCling, lhcrc was a lot of panicipation by the people there and that the Cily is gaining back some
goodwill from the neighbors in that area . Mayor Burns congratulated Council Member Nabholz on all the
wort she has done on this and all the effort she has put into that.
2. Mayor Bums staled that on the 2,... he appeared with a number of metro mayors at a hearing al
the Department or Loclll Affairs on privalC activi1y bonds for housing. that the Metro Mayor's Caucus is
lpOIIIOring. He l!Msed they ~ rcqucsling alllout S8 or $9 million for private activily bonds for affordable

will come down and make a prclClllalion on that 10 Council . The Metro Mayors ~ asking the various
cities 10 adopt this program . He said he thinks ii is a FOCI one. that they worked with Tony Hernandez at
HUD. and a variety of lenders. 10 implement this program and it includes rcqucsas 10 cities 10 reduce COSI
and fca from other income housing. such as tap fca and various kinds of fees . He commcn1ed thal
Mayor Parsons explained to the committee that a moderate income house may COSI as much as 13% of the
house , in fca. where an average house may be 7% or 8%. So. he said. ii is a sood program and they will
have a presentation on that.
3. Mayor Burns advised that he. and Cily Manager Scars, met with Rcprescntalive Dan Schaefer at
his office on Huron and he was very supportive of the Southwest Corridor Light Rail Projccl . He noted
they discussed the funding with him and he said he could arrange it if we wanted 10 testify this year before
the appropriate House committee on funding . Because, Mayor Burns said, the $47 million requested for
that project, by the administration, is just the administration's budget and Congress ultimately puses the
budget . Last year, he noted. they dido 'I testify because the lobbyist for RTD said they really didn 'I Med
us. He advised they will check that out lo sec if they Med us . He said thal once lhcsc projects SW1 10 be

the only thing that aJUld damqc that is if the RTD Board, in one of their meetings. ever tried to reject the
funds. He commented thal, as they saw today, the Chainnan and Terri Binder were off to Houslon, Texas,
with the Clcnenl Manager, to look at small bus operations that he favors, other than light rail . So. he
said, the Chair does not favor this light rail line, but they arc monitoring the members down there, to
make swc there is no attempt ... and he has been warned to watch ... to reject any of the funding for the
Soudnwell Corridor, by this Board. But. Mayor Burns added, he thinks we have some people beginning to
vote for us down there, that haven't voted for us before.

trying to determine their level of interest. their needs and their acccptancc of. kind of, the direction we are
moving. So it was really more an initial discussion .
Council Member Waggoner said he thought they had decided to stay in Greenwood Village. Director
Simpson advised that he dido 'I think they have made any decisions yet, that was the conclusion of the
meeting with them .
Mayor Bums commented that he thought, at one point, they were supposed to have made a decision by
Scplcmbcr of last year. Director Simpson advised that they were supposed to have made a decision in
1997, but be docs not believe they have been able to accomplish that. He noted he is not really certain of
all the -why, but we are continuing to hold discussions with them . And they, he said. continue to
say they have -inlerelt in this site. Mr . Simpson advised that, based on Council's previous direction,
they are continuing to bold dilCIISSions . He stated that as they get more infonnation. specific to this
potential ICllalll. they will bring those forward to Council .
Council Member Waggoner asked if he was talking about some space in the Foley 's building. or. he
questioned. is thal a poaibility. Director Simpson advised that at this time they didn ·1 specify detailed
numeric requirements. • they did before . tk said he thinks they understand there are some site restraints
and some monetary COllllninls on the pan of the City. although those wcren 't n:ally discussed in any
great detail . He said he thinks they understand that we would. more than likely . not be able to contribute
to the level we had talked about before. But they understand that we have an interest and they also have
an interest. He indicated it was a fairly general discussion, to express our interest in having them here , to
sec if there is potential for a branch museum. 11ley have expressed interest in that kind of direction. he
"' said. and we are continuing to pursue that. He advised there was an indication they have a strong interest
in becoming a tier two organization and that would be based on increasing attendance numbers for the
museum . To increase those attendance numbers will require a variety of methods to get people in their
facilities . Whether it is through branch facilities or additional people through a defined an garden area .
which could be on site or not be on site. Director Simpson advised that those are the kinds of things they
are seeking and we arc continuing that discussion to sec how they fit. It may be that the site still doesn 't
work for them. but, he said, he thinks it is n:ally incumbent upon us to continue that discussion for awhile .
Actually, he noted,~ arc having the same discussion with all the other tenants.
Council Mcrnbcrflrlldshaw asked how dai• are going . Director SimplOII opined it is going very well ,
that he is positive, excited and having fun. He said he thinks that we have a IOI of work to do. but he is
very hopeful that they will have a modified plan coming back that is going to be financially feasible . He
staled he is certain of it. Ms. Bradshaw said that is great and told him to keep up the good work .
Council Member Waggoner commented that he DOliccd it said they met with Cliff Weinberger on
February 23.,. to begin dialogue . Director Simpson advised that he . and City Manager Scars. met with Mc.
Weinberger last week to discuss the talking paper that he submilled to us . He stated they understood that
it was DOI a reflection of the EDDA 's position, but rather a single individual . But they felt that Mr .
Weinberger held such a significant pan . representing the business community during the CRNA process.
that it was really wonh it to find out what his issues were . He Slated they did not change his mind. he still
has a IOI of issues about where we are going . But , Mr . Simpson said, that he thinks he has an
understanding of why we arc doing these things. He opined that that is okay .
So, Council Member Waggoner said. it is just a beginning dialog. He asked if that was what he was
saying. Director Simpson Slated that he thinks it is imponant. the City and our City rq,rcsentalivcs, Slay
in touch with the business community and the citiz.cnry, as we continue to move forward on this. He said
he thinks we have to keep them informed . That he is DOI saying they should n:ally plan on 100"/e
acccptancc or agreement . He said he docsn 't think we will ever get there. or ever make everybody happy .

But, he llalcd, he does think we can find • plan that begins to achieve many of the things Council has set
forth• goals. Mr. Simpson commented that he thinks it is very possible for us to get a plan that is very.
very good for this community. So. he advised, they are holding those discussions from time to time.
letting them know our progress, talking to Harold Celva of EDDA and keeping him informed, we
continue to deal with citizens. He said the process with citizens and the business community is going very
positively.
Council Member Waggoner asked who Kirk Beardsley and Bryan Hinckley are . Director Simpson
advised that Kirk Beardsley is the architect rcprcscnting Miller Development. He said he doesn 't know
Mr . Hinckley.
In rcsponlC to CGuncil Member Waggoner, Director Simpson advised that Tryba Architects is
rcprclCllling Miller/Kitchell, fn,m • team standpoint. and is rally looking at the overall site il9Clf. Kirk
Beardsley is probably the inner Slaff" of Miller. Mr. Simpson Slated that the three people who have been
with Miller from the bcgiMing have been Skip Miller as primary contact. John Loss representing
financial concerns and Kirk Beardsley representing the architectural aspec1s.
Council Member Waggoner said that, undel: the project schedule for all the meetings they are having, he
didn 't see Skip Miller listed there. He asked if he has a representative at those meetings. Director
Simpson advised that there is always a representative at every one of his meetings. Council Member
Habenicht asked if that is Kirk Beardsley . Mr. Simpson stated that when it is a design related area it is
Kirk Beardsley, when it is a financial area it is either Skip Miller or John Loss . But, Council Member
Waggoner pointed out. they arc not listed. Mr. Simpson said he does not think he is either, necessarily.
He commented that he thinks it is an issue. that there are some people that kind of float in and out, but
those people are always aa:epled to those meetings.
Council Member Waggoner asked if anybody knows Bryan Hinckley. City Manager Sears noted he
thought he attended one of thole meetings, but he couldn 't tell Council if he was structural or what.
Director Simpson said he might have been one of the parking people. because they have bad a lot of the
parking structure diliCIISSions . Mr. Scars asked if he was with Manin and Manin. Director Simpson
agreed that he might be. City Manqcr Scars stated they need to get Marilee Utter to list out who the
rcprcscntatives are on thllllonn. So, Council Member Bradshaw uid. they would like a Who's Who on
that. Council Mcmbcr Waggoacr aid dlcJ nccdcd something. bccauK he was not fiun.iliu with • lot of
thole names . Director Simpson Slated that he would ask Marilee Utter to identify who people atlcnding
rcprcscnt .
(c) City Manqcr Scars aid we IIICMJd into the facility on Broadway and everything sccms
to be worting well II that facility . He asked Director Olson to speak to Council about this.
Director OI-advised they are in the facility al South Broadway. that they have everybody moved down
there. It is operational and they have bad a lot of people stop in. including people asking for pan-time
jobs. because for awhile they thought it was still Standby Personnel and Printers Personnel . But he
thought they have solved that issue. 1bcy will be having an open house in maybe two to three weeks,
when they have everything settled and they will be making announcements on that and, he advised, there
will be I pretty good aniclc in the paper. So. he noted. as of right now it seems to be going very well .
Director Olson noted it was a transition for a lot of folks, Nancy Peterson bad to move a lot of things down
there and it is I diJrercnt type otricc for her. But, he Slid. they think it going to wort out very well . He

firm and they will have an average of 35 employees working there during the day. So they arc going to
work out an agreement on parting with them so there won't be a problem. Director Olson stated it is up
and running and he invited Council to stop clown there anytime. Although, he said, there is no guarantee
that somebody will always be there, because they arc out in the street quite a bit. But they will probably be
having a part-time police officer filling in clown there, four or five hours a day, so there will normally be a
presence at the site.
Council Member Habenicht said she was curious to know if that area is landscaped at all. Council
Member Nabbolz stated it is concrete, asphalt. Director Olson said no, that there is no landscaping
around there at all. 111c only landscaping, he noted, would be next door at Kaiser Pennanente. Ms.
Habenicht asked if IOll1Cbow wc oould incorporate, into our use there, what wc arc trying to incorporate
with our landscaping ordiDIIIIOC. Council Member Bradshaw pointed out that wc arc a tenant. Ms.
Nabbolz adviaed it is all c:ioncrcte, that she tore out the stuff' that oould have been landscaped and poured
asphalt and c:ioncrcte . She said it is a IIICS5 and there cannot be any landscaping. Ms . Habenicht stated
she bales to sec the City setting a prea:dcnt that wc arc not trying to set. She suggested that maybe wc
oould put in tubs. Director Olson noted wc arc only leasing this, wc don't own the property. so wc arc
limited as to whal-can do down there. He commented that he docsn 't really know what wc could do
down thcre. Council Member Habcnicbt sugested tubs with trees or something. City Manager Sears
c:ommenlcld if wc go to a Ieng term basis. wc could build that into a lease agreement. that wc do some lypc
of'landscaping, but that wouldn't happen for another year. It is something wc can take a look at when the
lease: comes up next year.
Council Member Bradshaw thanked Director Olson for everything they do. She said she appreciates it.
(d) City Manqcr Sears asked Director Fonda to briefly address the closure of a street
'" connecting to Allen Treatment Plant. which he thought Council should be aware of.
Director Fonda advised that they have advenised quite a bit and he thought they were going around lo talk
to people that they arc aware of'. that are cona:med . Because. he noted. when Windermere and Layton
were closed they had to go around anodler direction . Mr. Fonda stated he rccommcnded that wc close
Layton for several -and he thought they had put out a communication to Council. II could be a big
safety problem. bee.-tllcy will be opening up pipe excavalions and so forth . And going on and off. and
on and off. would be coalaing. Then: is a good probability -.ICbody would go around the sign sometime
and go into a ditch. In addition. he said. they arc ID limited on space for construction. that they don ·1
have adcquale puking ror the people who will be womng there. They will prubably be on Windermere.
he DOied, as they have localCd ~ parting there . But, he pointed out. they don "t even have enough
space to stage the construction. Director Fonda explained that wbal that means is -.e would have to
go one block north to Tufts and then ID down onto Windcnncre that way . He opined it is DOC a peal
inconveniena:, but for a lo( of' good -it would be a good idea to clCIIC this during the period of'
construct.ion. He said he thought they had pul the message out to Council. in the papen and it will be
coming out in the City paper too . He asked if Council had any questions.
Council Member Waggoner asked about the length of time of that closure. Director Fonda advised it will
probably be about two ycars ... a year and a half ... somcwhere in there.
Referring to a Oyer , Director Fonda commented that ii looks like it was put out by the school , that it is
going to happen on March s"' and wc arc involved. He thought maybe tomorrow they oould put out an E-
mail out. after they find out. He said he got a bold of Chuck Esterly and he was not aware of exactly whal
the project was . Council Member Clapp said thank you. that neither was the school, lhat they asked her.
City Manager Sean said it sounds like a gas line or it could be something else with a private vendor. But.
