Mayor Bums commented that he had signed up for this too, but his schedule was so bad that he didn't get
there enough to graduate. But. he said . there were some very interesting sessions that he was able lo
allend. He staled it is an excellent program and perhaps we might think of doing something like this in

(a) Jim Rees. a business owner in Englewood. 925 West Kenyon Avenue. said he suppons
the idea behind Council Bill No . 74 . He noced lie was here a couple of weeks ago with some numbers,
which Council wholeheanedly rejected so. he said. lie has more. Mr. Rees stated he would not go through
the disscnation on why we should ha\'C this bill . that they ha\'c that in front of them. Council. he noced ,
has indicated they would like to sec the salaries increased. He stated that the cost or living. or consumer
price index. on the $400 that Council now nxci\'CS. that tlie value of that is $809.20. That. he explained.
is what it takes lo buy $400 wonh of 1979 goods. So . he said . lie would like 10 sec the numbers doubled
so Council can stan out on an even keel. He commented that lie would also like to sec a eos1 of living
index or some kind put on this so that rueure Council people do not have to go through this. Mr. Recs
advised that the numbers he quoced were from Michael R . Mower, an cconomilil for the legislative
council . that he gave him the index numbers lo come up with the $809.20.

Nays: None
(i) A resolution declaring Englewood City Council support ofBallot Issue Number
IO . the Colorado Transportation Needs Act. which is being circulated for signatures for the November 4.
1997 General Election Ballot was considered.
Council Member Clapp stated there just doesn't seem to be enough detail as rar as the bottom line what
taxes would be increased. She said it looks like we would be supporting something that would allow the
County to create a new tax . Ms. Clapp advised that she wanted the opportunity to vote no on this as she
does not reel real comfortable with it.
Mayor Bums advised that this is the CTN proposal, which is the, sort or, companion tax issue on the
ballot this fall, along with the Guide the Ride Program. Both or them grow out of the Governor's Blue
Ribbon Panel on Transportation and they have been discussed al Transit 97. Transit 97, he noted, had a
press conforence last week with regard to Guide the Ride but not CTN. CTN had lo get ballots and
signatures and it thought ii still had another step to go through . But, he said. CTN is the increase in user
recs or various kinds. including a gas tax increase or $.OS. $1 .00 increase on the vehicle registration rec
and $100.00 new wheels tax. which fonds highway projects in various parts orthe State including some of
the metro area. He noted that both or these items arc on the agenda on the DRCOG Board Meeting on
Wednesday night and he didn ·1 know whether Council wanted 10 give him any particular direction with
regard to the CTN proposal . Of COUl'IC. he noted. Council passed a proclamation unanimously supporting
Guide the Ride, so that is not a problem. CTN. he said, is still being discussed quite widely . He advised
that it has been proposed through everyone he has talked to, and Transit 97. that these two not be bundled
together for support. They are really being kept separate. He noted he went to the Southeast
Transportation Management Organi7Jllion meeting Friday. right after the Arapahoe Mayor's and
Manager's Bn:akfast. Three County Commissioner's were at the breakfast and one or them. Polly Page,
chaired the Transportation Committee meeting at SETMO and they were all talking about CTN. Guide
the Ride . Lakewood Mayor Linda Monon. who chairs Transit 97 and the Mayor's Caucus. was a& the
SETMO meeting and giving her pitch for Guide the Ride. Mayor Bums advised thal she also agn,cd that
these are scpara&e. they should not be bundled logether. Mayor Bums poilllcd OUI that Council has not had
a chance 10 study lhe CTN proposal in a Study Session. which he thought they would do before they would
YOIC on II . He said he is not sure whal Cooncil wants him to do as far as the voting on Wcdnelday night
at DR COG . He aclmowlcdgc,d ii is an issue of iOIIIC complexity. He said be is 11111 sure whelher Council
bas it, bul thal there are IOp questions and -on this propollll thal ~ been iaued by the CTN
people. He noted ii is not in lheir packet. bul thal he has ii and he was sure Council would want to see it.
He said he •ill have ii copied because ii asks a lot of very pointed questions aboul why these increases are
propmed. whal !hey are about. why they clon'I come from the Stale budFI or the General Fund, whal
projects are being buill according 10 lhis suggested incn:ase in usen fees . He advised 1ha1 cities and
counlieli do shale in this. where lhcy often don '1 al the Stale legislalure. Council Member Wiggins
commenled 1lia1 lhey ha,'Cn 'I shared in lhe past. Mayor Bums agreed and advised thal if it comes from
lhe S1a1e Legislalure. lhrough the General Fund. lhcy haven '! been allocaling funds for local govemmenl.
This proposal does .
Council Member Vonninag asked ir he could move lo postpone lhis for IWO weeks . Council Member
Wiggins asked if he was tabling ii. Mr. Vom1i11ag commenled lhal if they table it ii is dead . Mayor
Bums said he thought thal either way lhey can bring ii back . He advised that he called this morning aboul
it because he 1hough1 1hey should al least have a 11ucly session on ii before lhey put it on 1he Couent

Agenda. He said, as far as whal Council mighl wanl him lo do Wednesday night, thal he can be neulral if
they want him to do 1ha1. Because. he noled. !here arc some pans of 1his he favors and other people, such
as Liltlelon Mayor Dennis Reynolds who has questions about it which he has voiced to him and did again
at the breakfast on Tuesday. So. he said. the proponenls of these two arc being rather careful to keep them
separate, that they arc different issues.
Council Member Nabholz Slated she would appreciate. at this point. until they have an opponunity to
study it and take a look at it, that they take a neutral position on it. She said she is also concerned that
they arc hooking it together.
Council Member Habenichl said she would like to ask Acting City Manager Esterly if he would say why
our staff' is supponing it . Mr. Esterly explained thal it was a request that came through from the Colorado
Municipal League and we actually saw no reason not to suppon it and they were soliciting suppon from
around the Stale.
Mayor Bums conunenled 1ha1 the Exccu1ive Director of the Municipal League was at the breakfast on
Friday and he did give a pitch for lhis. 1l1e lhing lhal the League likes about ii is thal there is local
funding that goes with ii. Mayor Bums said lhc memo said the City of Englewood would receive SS.2
million over time. Council questioned whelher the $407,000 figure was an annual figure. Acting City
Manager Esterly asked thal Acting Director of Public Works Rick Kahm address thal question.
Council Member Habenicht said tlull she lhinks it is imponant to suppon this. She agreed that it is
totally, somctl1ing lotally separate. 8111 al lhc sa1ne time. she noted. Englewood has cenainly supponed
the Guide the Ride in terms of !he rest of the municipalities thal have helped suppon us with our quest for
light rail down the son1hwest corridor. She said she thinks also a lot of the tl1ings that are decided in
terms of 1ransi1 for our metro area arc determined by the whole State and lhe State legislature. She opined
that all of 1ransponation is imponant for all municipalities. Other municipalilics across the State
c:enainly arc being asked to suppon the needs of liS in the metro area. Ms. Habenicht offered the opinion
that while lhis may not be a huge boon 10 us in Englewood, or maybe nm the 1UooF51 thing for just the
metro area. thal municipalities throughoul the Slate would be advanlqoously IICMld by this ordinance.
She pointed out that it is a local control issue of"broad based concern. For that rason. she aatcd. she
would suppon ii and recommend that Mayor Burns suppon it at DRCOG and have Council's support of it
behind him. Al the same time. she said. she would want to give him the authority, thal if some good
strong arguments would come up. that would be reasonable for the him to CIOIIIC back to Council . Mayor
Burns could say -1iey now listen "''C came with this support initially. but the dilCUSSion ensued-... and
then have it come back to Council . Council Member Habcniehl said she ccnainly wants to sec Englewood
being supponive of Olher municipalilies · needs. whenever ii isn't to our disadvantage . And. she nolCld.
she does not think this is 10 our disadvanlage and it would c:enainl)' help a lot of other communities IICl"0'5
the Stale.
Acting Director Kalnn said. in addressing Council's question on funding. along wilh the request from
CML came an estimated schedule of revenues . He advised that Englewood's share would be
approximately $407,000 per year for the length of !he program. He said he docsn 't have the packet in
front of him. bul that he beliC\'CS ii sunsets in 13 years. Mayor Burns advised lhal ii sunsets in 2010 if the
projects arc not completed earlier than that He noted there arc 28 proposed projects selected by COOT
and lhe total funding, in this schedule for Englewood. would be SS .2 million over 1hat period of time .
Council Member Clapp wallled 10 know iflllC) had any idea how lhis would impact a family unit She
asked what lhe percenlage will go up on vehicle registration and whal is lhe new wheels tax. Is ii the
purchase of a new car, when you go in and re-register. and whal is lhc percentage 011 that? Ms. Clapp
commcnled 1ha1 she has a hard lime supponiug something when she docsn 't have all of that background

infonnation. Mayor Bums stated that he thought that was a good point . He noted there is infonnation in
the question and answer list . He said it really gives you a lot of answers to those questions, because they
arc essentially user fees . The trucking industry tends to be opposed to this because it is a user fee . One of
the responses to that that was given Friday to that was .. well if you gel the General Fund to pay for that
instead of the truckers. they would go for that ." Mayor Bums advised that a lot of people S11ppon user fees
when ii comes to this kind of funding, because then the people who arc actually using the facilities and the
roads arc actually paying for them. Tiiat. he noted. is one of the arguments and there is some good
material they have passed out on this that Council ccnainly should have. He Slated that he finds himself
S11pponing this personally. He opined it is probably a good idea even though there arc some questions
about all of the projects. Some of the niaterial says that we got behind on our funding for INlr roads when
the economy dipped in the late 80's . When we were in the recession the legislature got behind the curve,
so to speak. on highway funding. And this. he noted. is an attempt to try to make some of that up.
Council Member Vonnillag asked Acting Director Kahm if there would be a problem if this was
postponed for two weeks. Mr. Kahm advised that there is no timing problem at all . In fact , he said, as the
Municipal League asked for S11ppon . at that point in time the petitions for signatures to get on the election
were still being circulated. So. he noted. we arc not even S11rc it is on tile ballot at this point. Mayor
Bums Slated. that as far as the ballot proposal is eonccmcd. there is no problem at all postponing this for
Council's study.
Acting Director Kahm said. to put it in perspective. presently the City gets approximately a million dollars
a year from thc Highway Users Tax Fund . So. he advised . this would go up about 40"/e. it would be that
type of increase.
COUNCIL MEMBER VORMITIAG MOVED, AND IT WAS SECONDED, TO POSTPONE
AGENDA ITEM IO (c) (i) FOR TWO WEEKS FOR FURTHER STUDY.
Council Member Wiggins advised that he goes along with the motion. but for thc meeting Wednesday he
staled he would go along with the Mayor supponing it. Mayor Bums asked if that was the C0111C11SUS of
Council . Scvcra1 Council members indicated their agreement with Council Member Wigins. Council
Member Wiggins said that he agreed with what Council Member Habenicht said. about IDllldhing crucial
coming up.

(a) Approval ofOnlinanccs on First Reading
(i) AssiSlant City Anomey Reid presented a rcco1mncndation from the City
Anomey 's Office to adopt a bill for an ordinance removing criminal penalties for minor traffic violalions.
She advised that currently all municipal onlinancc violations. which includes traff'ic. arc criminal in
nature and therefore liave a possible jail sc1uencc as pan of their penalty. Council Bill 77 would
recommend removing criminal penalties for some minor traffic violations. which WINlld make them in the
nature of a civil issue and a civil penalty. She stated that they feel lllOS1 minor traffic violations arc more
easily and elfcctively handled as civil 1na11crs. that the pro1pcct of a jail sentence is not ncccaary for the
cnforcc1ncnt of those. Other traffic violations that arc of a more serious nature. such as carclels driving,
reckless driving, no proof of inswancc. and those type of oR'CIIICS WINlld remain criminal in nature. She

staled they think that the dccriminali1..alion action would eliminate the very detailed criminal procedures
that arc attached to anything that has a criminal penalty. such as jury trials, coun appointed counsel.
wananl procedures when someone fails to appear in coun . Ms. Reid explained that if Council agrees to
decriminalize these types of minor traffic violations. the fines would be collected, not with wanants or
threats of jail, but would be collected in a civil type manner. More specifically, she advised. the first line
of collection would be to put a hold on their driver's license with the Department of Mocor Vehicles so
they would not be able to renew their drivers license until the penalty had been paid. She stated they
would envision that this ordinance would go into effect January I, 19911.
Mayor Bums noted that there are exceptions for the more serious violations that are not decriminalized.
Assistant City AUomey Reid said yes. that would be careless, reckless and no proof of insurance, She
advised there is also the issue of ... if there is something that would be say four points or less, other than
the careless driving. that an officer tl10Ugh1 was of a more serious nature. due 10 the facts surrounding the
incident. they could still charge them in Stale coun.
The City Clerk was asked 10 read Council Bill No. 77 by title:
COUNCIL BILL NO. 77, INTRODUCED BY COUNCIL MEMBER WAGGONER
A BILL FOR AN ORDINANCE AMENDING TITLE I. CHAPTER 4 AND 7 OF 1liE ENGLEWOOD
MUNICIPAL CODE 19115 AND BY ADDING A NEW CHAPTER 18 TO TITLE 11. REMOVING
CRIMINAL PENALTIES FOR SOME TRAFFIC VIOLATIONS.
COUNCIL MEMBER WAGGONER MOVED, AND IT WAS SECONDED, TO APPROVE
AGENDA ITEM 11 (a) (i) -COUNCIL BILL NO. 77, ON FIRST READING.
Council Member Wiggins noted. on the hold on the dri,•ers license. if they do not pay ii it goes to Motor
Vehicle and Motor Vehicle will 1101 renew their license until they make this good . He asked if this stays
applicable in the other 49 stales if they do not make it good. or is it only for Colorado. Assistant City
Anomey Reid advised ii is just for Colorado. Council Member Wiggins said dam. Ms. Reid explained.
after that. if that docs not work then the City has the option of going to a collection agency and collecting
ii. as any other civil judgment would be. Council Member Wiggins pointed out that it is not profitable 10
go 10 a collection agency when they skip lo another stale. but at least we got them out of Colorado, which
is a gain anyway. Ms. Reid agreed that is a gain. She commented that we don ·1 know for sure. since we
haven '1 done it before. what the percentage would be. but that ii is probably about the same as people who
have failures to appear and warrants. who also skip the State.
Mayor Bums noted . in a dccriminali1.ed system. they still accumulate points under the point system so
their driving privilege wall be suspended the same way as they were before. if they have those kinds of
violations. Ms. Reid concurred and noted that while the decriminali7.ation ordinance would take away the
possibility of six 1non1hs in jail. which is in there now. ii also increases the amount of the fine they could
have. if they are multiple offenders .
Council Member Wiggins said, back 10 that question Mayor Bums asked. lhal they might be suspended
but by the same token Motor Vehicle and the courts do not accept a suspension unless they have been
personally served. He asked Ms. Reid if that was right. Ms. Reid said yes and asked if he was talking
about . for example. the photo radar issues. Mr. Wiggins said any of these issues in here, if they
accumulale enough points 10 gel their license suspended. but in fact they keep moving, all they have to
send is a certified lener of their last known address. bul .. Joe violator" jUSI keeps moving, thus he is not
served . So when an officer stops 111111 he is under suspension by their records, so he writes under
suspension plus NOL . no valid operators license The guy comes 10 coun and you can '1 prolCCUle him for

under suspension. because he has not been properly SCM:d. He asked if lhat is comet. Assistant City
Attorney Reid responded that is true. except we don't do IUlpCIISion in Englewood Municipal Coun
anyway. that is County . And they have that problem tccbnically. she said. bccaUlc ii is the problem of the
Dcpanmcnl of Motor Vehicles finding them .
Council Member Habenicht asked if they don't have a llllpellded lmise and they CIR do lhat. what will
happen to them. She said she is just conccmcd that wllll dlis is is if you pay you drive and if you can't
pay tbca you doll 't drive . Assistant City Anoracy Reid advillll ac,. dlllt it .alld ao1 c:llaaF that
pmticular ~ bccaUlc wben it aJ-. to Sl!lpC'lldiag I *iven ~ dial is iD die pumew of the
Depanmcnt of Motor Vchiclc and they an: the ones tbat ....-a it uyway. She lllled dull, whether it is
criminal or civil in nature. they still accrue points if they pt a ClDIMClioa iD the Englewood court. If they
pt I cooviclion. she said. the court acnds in the notiflCllion of the ClDIMClioa with the points and the
points an: logged by Motor Vchiclc IS to how many points they have. Then. she noted. when Motor
Vehicle finds they have I certain number of points that would merit I mspcnsion. that is when their
procedure. that Council Member Wiggins was talking about. goes into effect . Then they notify them to
c:omc in because they are suspending their license. She noted that happens either way, whether ii is

Council Member Habenicht asked if these people can pica bargain. Ms. Reid lapoadod ya. She said
lei's say for example it was a two point ticket. That is still an~ that is still MNDetbiag that can be
doac. She noted wc tllink it would be done in simpler and mon: lffllJDlinad mcdlOII and wc an: hoping to
work IOWlrd andhing. poaibly even for a mail-in ticket. But. she noted, at lhis time wc an: IIOt
aintcmplating the kind al mail-in ticket like Denver has. which is like if you nail iD tllis tickct you pt
two points off and that's it. Ms. Reid advised that the .,._aion dcpaltment al the City feels dull you
should still tab into COlllidcration someone's past driving ieconl wben you make any kind of a plea

afternoon with a representative from Equitable who also has approved the agreement with two caveats.
which he said he will mention to Council . Mr. Miller Slated that the only reason they do not have the
Equitable agreement is that the person with signing authority has now retired and Equitable needs to,
through their own internal process. deputize somebody with signing authority and that could not occur by
this evening. But the representative of Equitable has signed off on the agreement. Mr. Miller said the
caveats arc nonsubstantive. He said they have asked. subject to Council's approval, regarding paragraph 3
(c) oflhc agreement, if they will specifically exclude any warranty regarding the parking structure. Mr.
Miller commented tbat as Council knows this agrccmcnt contemplates that upon closing there will be a
release of any obligation of the parking structwc. He said they do not want to make any wananty as a
condition of the parking structwc pursuant to this agrccmcal. He stated that we did not contemplate that
there would be any warranty as to the parking structwc. The ICICOlld item that they want is in paragraph
5.1 (c) dealing with their warranties. He advised there is a provision that says if any event tnullpircs after
the agreement is signed. wbich would render the warranty no longer accurate, that they would have an
opportunity to cure that. He said they want a similar rigbt if a warranty is currently not accurate, that
before the City would pursue a claim they would notify them and give them an opponunity to com:ct the
error before they were liable. Mr. Miller said he thought that was tile intent of tlic agreement, but the way
it was drafted, on reflection. they felt that it needed to be clarified. The last item, he advised, in paragraph
11 .11 , there is a definition of knowledge. He noted that there arc many provisions in the agrccnicnt that
say that they arc representing to us to the best of their knowledge. He advised they would like to limit that
knowledge to the knowledge of Greg Moore as the representative of Cindennak. The reason being, he
explained, is that this project has existed for over 30 years he would guess. People have come and gone
and they do not want to be charged with the knowledge of somebody who may have been here 20 years
ago. Coincidentally, he said, Greg Moore did run this project when he was in Denver before he was
transferred to Atlanta. So probably, he pointed out, the person currently having the most knowledge of
this project is. indeed. Greg Moore. So again. Mr. Miller said, he docs not believe that is a significant
change. He pointed out that all of our dealings have been with Mr. Moore on behalf of Cindennak. So.
he noted. there arc those three caveats. the signature from Kravco, and he said he has an assurance from
Equitable that the agn:cmcnt will be signed as pn:scntcd with those three clarifications. Mr. Miller stated
there arc two other items he needed to point out to Council. This agn:cmcnt, he said. is being prcacnted to
Couacil with the understanding that tlicrc will also be an agrccmcnt rcprding die Selby panzl . It is their
undcnlancling that the City will agree to the IIUblease . Indeed. he said. we have prcpucd and wc have an

will no longer be able 10 come back 10 us as they have for what is now three years. So, he said. his
recommendation is that the City adopt the agreement that ii has in front of ii , with the three clarifications
that he mentioned which, he said. he does not believe are substantive. He said he thinks they are clean-up
items.
Council Member Habenicht asked if they could have a subsequent, son of a mutual. equitable, agreement
on that 11 .11 Knowledge, limiting the knowledge to that of this Council. Mr. Miller said in other words
the knowledge of the City would be limited 10 the knowledge that anyone currently serving on the Council
has. Ms. Habenicht said yes. Mr. Miller said that is fine . Ms . Habenicht said when she asked about her
concerns before, what she was trying to expn:ss. thal she thought that was the same sense she had.
Obviously, she noted, they had the same kind offceling she had and maybe ii could just be mutual. She
said what she is saying is that she underslands their thinking. Mayor Burns commented that they might
do that, but that he wouldn '1 be a bit surprised, as a public entity. that that is not going 10 hold up in coun
if challenged. Council Member Waggoner said ii seems like that is what ii says anyway. City Attorney
Brotzman staled it is pretty close 10 that anyway.
Council Member Vorminag noted this is Council Bill No. 52 Introduced by Council Member Waggoner.
He asked City Anorncy Brotzman ir this is a second reading or a first reading. Mr. Brotzman advised that
this is a first reading as amended.
CCMlncil Member Waggoner asked Mr. Miller if he was satisfied that Ilic changes in this particular draft
satisfy the concerns that they had over hazardous material and the timelines that we had established. Mr .
Miller said yes, that there is a provision that Cindcrmak or its contractor is obligated to sign the manifest,
they have agreed to that and ii is now included in the agreement. Mr. Miller stated that they contemplate
that the contract with the contractor will have a liquidated damage provision and will be bonded. He
advised they do not have the agreement in front of them. 8111 , he pointed out. Council will have an
opponunily lo approve that contract .
Council Member Waggoner pointed out that Mr. Miller was concerned with that other major paragraph in
there on the timing and obligations of each pany and he was going to change all that. Mr. Miller advised
that has been changed and. for reasons that will become apparent as time goes forwud. he thought the
timing was going lo work out as they contemplalc:d. He said he does not think that is going to be a
problem .
The City Cler1' was asked to rad Council Bill No . 52 by title :
COUNCIL BILL NO. 52. INTRODUCED BY COUNCIL MEMBER WAGGONER
A BILL FOR AN ORDINANCE AIJTlK)RJZJNG A PROPERTY TRANSFER AGREEMENT
BETWEEN CINDERMAK ASSOCIATES AND 11fE CITY OF ENGLEWOOD. COLORADO.
COUNCIL MEMBER WAGGONER MOVED, AND IT WAS SECONDED, TO APPROVE
AGENDA ITEM 11 (a) (Ii) • COUNCIL BILL NO. !12, WITH CLARlnCA TIONS, ON nRST
READING.
Council Member Waggoner said he thought it would be good to lee the public know that it was not
Englewood or the Council that has been holding up the project . that it has been the process with
Cindermak and that side of the bargaining table rather than the City. He commented that he knows they
have been criticized for taking so long lo come to some type of an action with Cinderella City and he
thought now ii 's time that we can move forward since we are getting this close.

Mayor Bums said that is a good point and that he agreed . He acknowledged this project has gone on for a
long time, but we are receiving title to propeny plus the money to remediate it from Cindennak, instead of
condemning it and having to pay several million dollars for the property as a City. So even though it has
taken lime. he opined that we have gOCten a pretty good deal out of it.
Council Member Waggoner called for the question.

I . Mayor Bums mentioned that he has been out getting signatures on a nomination petition for
reelection and has been to a lot of homes in Englewood in his District. He said he has been amazed at
how patient the public is with us on Cindcn:lla City and things like that and noted it comes up constantly

weelicnd that we would probably have a signed contract tonight. that he was hoping we would and we
bftoc . Mayor Bums staled he is very pleased about that. He advised that he gets a lot of questions about
water quality, taste and odor problems and clouding. And, he noted. when he talks 10 young mothers who
draw a bath for their childn:n in the evening and they look al the water and say "no, I don 'I think we an:
ping to do that tonight" ii c:onccms him greatly. He said he would like to sec us 1novc forwanl as much

probably an all year celebration. He said he is looking forward 10 working wilh 1hem on that .
2. He thanked Mr. Miller for the fine work he has done on Ibis amlract with Cinderella City . He
said he knows he has pul a lot of time and effon inlo it and he just wanled Mr. Miller to know we

(iii) Council Member Wiggins:

I . He asked City Attorney Broczman if wc have any ordinance that limits the siz.c and the number of
satellite dishes a resident can have in the City . Mr. Brot1.ma11 advised that wc do currently and we also
have a moratorium on larger ones. He stated that issue is going to be going to Planning and Zoning and
then ooming back to Council . Mr. Wiggins asked who he should talk to aboul this. City Attorney
Brotzman referred him to Harold Stitt .
2. He stated that he thinks Code Enforcement needs to check around General Iron Works for weeds.
He noted from the sidewalk 10 their fence has prolific growth and ii needs lo be brought up to standard.
Acting Director Esterly stated they will get on ii .
(iv) Council Member Clapp:
I . She advised that she has been working with a lot of different people on a possible food and
clothing drive. She noted there seems to be a real need for food and clothing. especially with the welfare
refonn. It is not that we are na:essarily in a huge crisis. but she docs sec there is a need out there to assist
people from falling on the system al this point in time. getting sucked back into it . She noted mostly
women and children are going out there and trying to make it on their own. Ms . Clapp advised that she
spoke to one of the County Commissioners. Commissioner Brackney. and asked him if this was a real
oonccm and a real need . He was \'Cry excited about the prospect and said absolutely. it is a very real need
and he would wholeheancdly suppon something of that nature. So. Ms. Clapp said. she took it UOlhcr
11ep and spoke to Molly Marquette one of the social services employees over there. They bounced this
idea back and fonh and decided if they could get municipalities behind iL not necessarily to do all the
work. she said she didn't walll to give them the wrong idea. but just to embrace the idea and give it DIie
public suppon if you will . Ma)ile. she said. with • litlle bit ol PR out there we could do a lot or poutive
things. Council Member Clapp advised that she would be willing lo work on this. to do letter writing, to
mcel with people on it. try to explain what we are doing with other municipalities. that type of thing.
Really. she noted. Molly Marquette indicated that they 1nay be willing to help in the way of truck pick up.
those types of things. Ms. Clapp stated she has a list of details we would need to work out. She advised
that one would be a nonprofit orga11i1.a1ion where we oould store and distribute food and clothing from .
Drop off sites. maybe oompanies such as King Soopers and Safeway. Ms. Clapp pointed out that she has
not approached any of these people. that she is ooming to Council first for some suppon . She noted they
had talked about media coverage. She brought up the issue of a theme. She said if we could coordinate
these efforts through municipalities and oounties that she felt ii would be imponant to have a real positive
theme. maybe Hand in Hand type of Iheme . Ms. Clapp advised that she would be asking Council to
suppon a proclama1io11 for the month of Oclobcr. She said they really thought October would be the bell
month to do this. She noted they have to have a little time to prepare for it and gel things organi:zcd and
they didn 't want it to fall within the holiday season. She opined that people gel so bogpd down within
the holiday season that it is really hard to make something like this effective. Ms . Clapp noted that is the

time frame and those arc pretty much the details that we have yel to work out . She reiterated then: is a
need out there and she would be willing to do most of the work .
Mayor Bums noted that is really quite a proposal. He mentioned thal John Brackney was at the breakfast
on Friday and talked about this and generally the implementation of welfare reform is one of the biggest
challenges that the Counly Commissioners have at the moment. He noted they have had a drop in the
rolls. he thought. anticipating welfare reform. but as you get down in the sys1em you will get down to that
harder core group that is the toughell portion of the people that need to be ,q,ositioned . And if, he DOied,
you have a limited amount of time that you can be on welfare they aJU1d have some real needs before this
is over . He commented that that ties right i11to that type of thing.
Council Member Clapp opined that our County Commissioners had a really tough job with the welfaR
rdorm and C\'Cl)'lhing dse that was on their plate recently . She said this would be a nice way to support
their efforts and what they arc doing and try to make it a sua:ess. really get behind what they arc doing
and try to assill people .
Mayor Bums said indeed. as he n:called, Joh11 Brackney was asking for suppon from the municipalities.
Because it really is quite an undertaking to make this change.
Council Member Waggoner pointed out that we participate in the Inter Faith Task Force. He asked how
they enter into this arrangemc111. He said he understands that is a toe of what they do, assists families in
need . Mayor Bums said that they do . Council Member Clapp advised that she toured Inter Faith and that
she knows they were just 011 thc edge of doing some food drives and cloching drives. that type of thing.
She said she doesn't koow if they have and when she toured the shelves were almost bare. Ms. Clapp
stated she doesn 't want to strike panic in an)tlody, because they were on the verge of doing some things
and that may not be the case today. Ms. Clapp opined that whal we need to rccogni:ze is that the need is
increasing and certainly it is not a huge crisis. but there is an inclaacd need and we need to do our share.
Especially, she pointed out. in consideration of the fact that we utili:ze 60% of what they take in. al Inter
Faith, here in Englewood .
Council Member Habenicht said she thought it was appropriate when a Council member has an inlCRII in
an issue that helps pull us together and wants to work on that . She said she didn't think Ms. Clapp was
talking about major staff resources. She asked Ms. Clapp if that was true, that she was talking about jllll
primarily that she will be doing this and working in cooperation with ocher cities and maybe -stafl'
support. Council Member Clapp advised she would ask for some staff assillancc, posaibly liom Pauletta
Puncen:lli, as she feels she could oiler quite a bit of her communication skills and PR skills to this. But.
she said. she certainly would IIOI want to monopoli:ze her time.
Council Member Habenicht asked Council Member Clapp if this is somcchiag she would aec ~ag
through with other cities like bringing to the Tri-Cities group . Ms. Clapp said )'Cl. definitely.
Mayor Bums asked Council Member Clapp if she wanted a COIIICl18& flOIII Council al tlais poilll. if that
was kind of what she was looking for . Ms. Clapp advised she fdt she ablolutcly would need -..elhing
like thal to prooccd .
Council Member Nabhol z advised that she would also like to lend her suppon and noted that is a big
undertaking. She said she lends her support because she has a very diYCIIC dillrid where she really 1ee1
the need.
Council Member Waggoner llaled tltat he personally does not have a prab1cm with it either, bul dill he
would like to aec it coordinated with Inter Faith. to 11>mc CXICIII, since we pll1icipMe witll laler Faidl.

Mayor Bums noted it sounds like what Ms . Clapp is talking about is son of a sustaining type of supply,
that Inter Faith tends to do more of crisis management . Council Member Waggoner advised that he
knows Inter Faith has a food drive every year, because the Englewood Rotary Club participates in it.
Council Member Clapp advised that we would have to have a nonprofit assist us with this, there is no
doubt of that, it is just that she hasn't approached anybody so she would hate to commit anyone.
Council Member Vonnittag asked Acting City Manager Esterly if he could see a problem with Pauletta
Puncerelli helping her out . Mr. Esterl y said he was not sure he was comfonable committing Ms.
Puncerelli to the work on this tonight. He advised he is comfonable oommitting to provide staff suppon
to get things done and we will have to sec which direction this heads. He pointed 001 that social services
type issues are not an issue that we here in the City of Englewood are routinely involved in . Council
Member Clapp said okay. that that is fair enough .
Mayor Bums told Ms . Clapp that he thought she had a consensus of support and we will see where it l(ICS
from here.
Council Member Vonnittag asked Ms. Clapp if she wanled to work on Che proclamation for October.
Council Member Clapp advised lhal she will work Oil a proclamalion for the month of Occober 10 kind of
gear up for Chis and get Che word ouc . so people know ics coming around .
Council Member Vonnittag wished Ms . Clapp good luck .
Council Member Habcnichl said she just wanted lo clarify Iliac Ms. Clapp would be working with County
Commissioners and oeher represencatives pulling logcther and son of helping 10 be one of the catalysts to
make chis happen. And, sbe continued. Council Member Clapp would work with Che City of Englewood
as Englewood 's represcntalive. not looking coward us becoming social services to supplanl her, to do
anything. to pick up any kind of financial thing thal the Slale or Federal is giving away, bul jUSI u a way
to help muster suppon for the volunlccr sector and Che nonprofil sector. Council Member Clapp said that
if anything like thac came aboul she would certainly bring that back 10 Council . Bue. she said. she docs
not sec thal need righl now . She opined 1lia1 whal they are looking for right now is suppon and YOIWIICCn
and some organi7Jllion in this cffon .
2. She advised chat she and Council Member Habenicht had a meeting with Dan Brauman 111d
BaJb Fout last week . She noted 1ha1 really some wonderful . wonderful sugcstioas came OUl of Iha!
meeting. One was 1lia1 basically 1ha1 we really need an education process for our bauds 111d commiaions .
She opined thac we really haven '1 gone out to our boards and ~ visilod witll them or Fl1CII
them all together. Council Member Habenicht added wc haven't gonen lCJFllier for aa informalion
process . Ms . Clapp advised they would like 10 bring something like thal as a propmal to Council. She
asked Ms. Habenicht if they were ready to do that. Council Member Haheaichl said she thought ii -
good lo ICI Council know ahead of time Chai ii is coming and ma)i>c working with Dan Brotzman . She
noted ii son of dovetails a little bic on the repon we got from the Culcural Ans Commission 100, about
looking 11 the facl tliat there really isn 't anything standard that wc really ha\'C in place. Council Member
Clapp said we don '1 have an orientation in place . Ms . Habenicht agn:cd thal was the term they used .
(v) Council Member Waggoner advised that quite a few ycan ago u pan of a class
project. he thought it was Mike Woika with the Utilities Depanment. had studied looking into a bottled
water program . He s.-iid he was not sure wliat he came up with as far as numbers, but thal he bappcocd to

of the taste and odor problems that we have. Mr. Waggoner opined that it might be time to brush off the
report that Mike Woika did and maybe take another look at what the cost would be to get into a process
like that, rather than everybody buying bottled water at Safeway or somewhere else, maybe we would
provide it on our own through our plant. In response to Council Member Habenicht, Mr. Waggoner said a
lot of those cities BR marketing it as a special name. Mayor Burns commented that many ~
showed him their bottled water. but that is because they didn't like our water. Council Member Waggoner
said this might get around something like that, that maybe we could sell our own water.

12. Gelleral DiKUllioa
(a) Mayor's Choice
I. Mayor Bums prcsenaed a proclamation declaring Council's support for lhc RTD "Guide The
Ride" lnitiatiw:. He explained that this stems from lhc Transit 97 Committee. The general support for
lhc -Guide The Ride" Program, is basically found in Senalc Bill SS this year in lhc legislature, which we
testified on to increase lhc RTD sales rax by .4% to a full cent, to fund lhc -Guide The Ride"
improvements . He said, as he understands. they BR having a major kick off and press conference next
week on this. Mayor Bums noted this is being brought up in lhc form of a proclamation. instead of a
resolution which would have to haw: been on lhc docket. He commenam that Council Member Habenicht
has an addition to this proclamation.
COUNCIL MEMBER HABENICHT MOVED TO AMEND THE PROCLAMATION TO ADD
ANOTHER WHEREAS. "WHEREAS, THE CITY or ENGLEWOOD LOOKS roRWARD TO
THE LIGHT RAIL PROJECT ALONG THE SOUTHWEST CORRIDOR, AND HAS
APPRECIATED THE SUPPORT or OTHER COMMUNITIES IN MAKING TBA T HAPPEN,
WE CERTAINLY WANT TO SUPPORT ALTERNATIVE MODES OF TRANSPORTATION
AND SOLUTIONS roR OTHER COMMUNmES AS WELL"
Mayor Bums noted that that really goes hand in glow: with lhc kind of underanding we haw: tried to
haw: with other communities in lhc metro ara • lhc southwest corridor light rail came on for voting. not
only II RTD but cspccially at lhc DRCOG Board where it had to be appn,wed in onler for 11110 get a full
funding grant agreement with lhc Federal GcM:mment for this line. He said they had told lhc other cities,
especially in lhc aonhem tier of cities. dull if they would support us in this line. which -lhc tint one.
that we -W see what we CIOUld do to appon diem whea other lines aime on boanl. Mayor Bums
advilCIII Iha& lhc -Guide The Ride-Plopaa his Ille pnipcml to do _.. of thae lines. especially the

2. Mayor Bums said. as they know, we had a tragic accident at Belleview Partt where a couple of
boys crossed Belleview at that location and were hit by a car. He noted there was a question, in the paper
and he thought the police responded. as 10 whether they could have gone undemealh at that time or
whether lhat was blocked or how it was signed. Mayor Burns stalCd he is not sure what the signage is
there while that is under repair, and while we are pulling a bike trail through. whether these kids
understood that they could go underneath that road or not. Mayor Bums staled that he thinks it is
iacwnbenl upon us 10 ma.kc sure people do know or don't know. that if ii is blocked or signed or whatever,
whether they can go under there or not . So. he opined. we need to lake a look at that and make sure there
is a clear undcrslanding of what facilities can be used.
Council Member Clapp fell that was a really good point he brought up. She suggc:sted that maybe we
could put a little something in INlf Citizen. kind of laying out a map as lo how lo usc that.
Mayor Burns asked if it has ever been actually blocked. He said he did not think ii had . Council Member
Wiggins advised that it is open right now. Acting City Manager Esterly advised that portion of the project
has been consuucted. but the project itself is not fully constructed. That project is being carried INlt by the
City of Linlcton with the assistance of the City of Englewood. He explained that the City of Littleton.
after the rain stonns and flooding and debris 1ha1 were in the box culvert ordered the contractor 10 close ii
until ii was cleaned up. So. he advised. ii was closed olJ with barricades al either end at the time of the
accident. Mayor Bums stated that ii was a tragic event .
3. Mayor Bums staled that he thought. when Council approved the usc of their new consultants on
the Cinderella City project last week. they said ii would lake about ten days lo get their project groups
together. He asked Acting City Manager Esterly how they are coming along with that Mr. Esterly
advised that he will be reponing on that during the Manager's report .
4. Mayor Bums noted that tomorrow night is National Night Out and that participating Council
members are set up with several places lo go. 10 the various block parties. He encouraged everyone to
participate and thanked all of the people in the community who agreed to host the block parties. Mayor
Burns said he knows that Nancy Peterson and her group have really put a lot of time into this. 100, and ii
is always a great event. He commented that Englewood probably has more panicipation in something like
this than IIIOll any city in Colorado. So. he said. he wished to thank cvcryonc participating in that and
urged the Council members 10 ma.kc all of their appointments during the evening.
(b) Council Member's Choice
(i) Council Member Nabholz:
I . She said she has a question in rcpnt 10 semi-truck tralfic. She noted she realizes Delaware is
the truck route. that it is the wider of the streets. But. she advised. she has semis going down Cornell
now . as well as Bates. In fact. she said. a semi turned the comer on Cornell to Delaware and cracllcd the
comer of her concrete as ii went by . It was a nonhwcst transport truck at approximately 11 : I 5 this
morning. Ms . Nabholz emphasized that there is increased semi traffic OIi Cornell and she docsn 't know
what can be done, whether it can be a police enforcement issue. She pointed out we are working on this
Concrete Utility and now. all of a sudden. we have semi 's coming through the neighborhood. She said
she would like 10 find oul if anything can be done. Acting City Manager Esterly advised that they will
give her a repon back on 1ha1 .
2 . She noted the next item she has she clillCUSICd briefly in Study Session . Ms. Nabbolz lllaled that
she recciwd I lcacr from a lady who hid ICltifaed oa bcbalf ol lbc properly and its c:ioaditiolls at 320 I

3. She stated that she was surrounded briefly by approximalcly 20 juveniles Friday night II a
quarter to eight at Dartmouth and Delaware. There are several cluplcxes on Delaware and they are 30711',
3068, 3090 and 3096. Council Member Nabholz advised thal lhere is a lat of police CX*aCl II tllClle
duplexes. She said she .. to Sergeant Waa-this IIDlliDg ud be said be wouJd be pulliDg 10F1ber a
bislory of calls. that it is her Wldenlanding that it oould possibly be one owner. But. sbe advilCd. this is
causing a real problem within that neighborhood once again.
4 . She said she received a call from a Gary Athey on Sunday C\'Clling and his ainc:au was the pawd
alley in the 3100 block of South Bannock. He said the City has been promising to fix that and repair that
a111crete and he wants 10 know if in that Concrete Utility he is also paying for that alley to be repaiml
with concrete. She said she told him she would check and get back with him.
S. She advised that she has changed her plans. that she will be visiting block parties tomorrow
night. that they have posq,oned their block party until September.
(ii) Council Member Vormittag:
I. He said regarding the Smart Trailer. he saw that Division Chief Moore is in the audience and
wanted 10 let him know that he appreciates still getting them . Mr. Vormiltag stated lhal he noticed one or
two in there where the speeds were extremely higb for the lime. One car was doing 58 miles an hour
between eight and nine o 'clock in 1he evening. He said he thought ii was over near Cornell on that
particular one. Council Member Vormillag poimed our that he also noticed another one on the 4100
block of Delaware at two o 'clock in the morning between 66 and 70 miles an bour. There was another
one that concerned him. he said. doing 5010 55 miles an hour at 12 in the afternoon. He said he was just
wondering if we ever have any patrols out there. even though we have the Smart Trailer there. he didn 'I
know how they can get away with doing that kind of speeding like that in the middle of the day.
Acting City Manager Esterly stated they can talk about this a liale bit and get back to Council . But. be
said. as Council Member Vormittag noted the Smart Trailer was sitting out there typically for a one week
period of time and there was one or two violators that extreme during that time period. He commented
that to calCh that person you would have had to have posted an officer there for 24 hours a day for a week
to come up with the one violator. So. he noted. Iha! is probably not a practical solution to catching that
person. Council Member Vormittag stated that he had a guy going down his street and he must have '-8
doing 75 or so. be was burning rubber for four blocks. Mr. Esterly advised that if we were doing a camera
security type activity. that type of person would have been noted. He said he did not know if Division
Chief Moore might have some comments about the opportunities for inaa:uracics in the Smart Trailer or
if we are comfortable that the data that comes out of the Smart Trailer is 100% aa:ura1e or not .
Division Chief' Moore commented that it seems lo be pretty aa:ww and lbal the CIOllllDCIII about one car
out of I 00 owcr a long period of time, that ii would be very difficult to caacb . It is poaible. but it is
unlikely thll thal penon would be caught. Noting the comment that Council Member Vormittag made.
lbal if you uuJy saw one individual. that actually a citizen seeing the speeder oould aauaUy be of service
to the police. By perhaps jotting down the license plate or maybe making a nowion as to what the driver
looked like. he advised. they could issue a summons. He noted they would have to willing 10 testify.
Division Chief Moore explained that they an: actually more likely 10 be able 10 cite somebody under those
conditions than 10 coincidentally be at the location when somebody is speeding. Especially on a side stree1
or residential street . Not . he said. 1ba1 ii would never happen. that it does if they get lucky. that there just
arc not enough of them to go around.

Mr. Recs' numbers were SI.SOO. Sl.250 and $1,000.
Council Member Habenicht said she thought it had been publicized. but that she hasn't heard a lot of
negativity or anything with the amounts that they talked about. She commented that she is not so sure
that the general public would be as positive about ii as the three people who spoke here tonight.
Especially. she said. as it would be changed without benefit of a having gone into the press. She Slated
that is her concern. Mayor Bums opined that if you wanted to increase it any more you could ask to have
it read on first reading again. In response to Council Member Habenicht, City Attorney Brotzman advised
that this is an ordinance:. Mayor Bums noted they could expose that to the public and see what they think
about that. Ms . Habenicht said that is good. that she thought it was a resolution.
So. Council Member Vormittag asked. are you saying you would like to go with those numbers and cross
out the $700, $650 and $600 and add in the new numbers. He asked City Attorney Brotzman if they could
do that. Mr. Brotzman advised they could do that if they liked.

Council Member Nabholz said she wanted to make something clear. as theR were a couple ol people in
the audienc:c: last time that they discussed it that were upset that Council would even toy with the idea ol a
pay raise. She swed she needed to make this clear that this is for the new people coming in or tbole that
would be rcelec:ted . Because. she noted. thole that are currently on Council would not sce this. It woulcl,
she said. be only for the newer council members. like Mayor Bums if reelcacd.

aJUld expose this on first reading and see. He noted it is one al the higher ones proposed and be
understands why Jim Rees from the Chamber might propose this. but whether it is too high is the only
question.
Council Member Habenicht suggested that Council IIIO\'C forward with the numbers that Council Member

4 . She: stated that she thinks it is time that perhaps they do another press release on Cinderella City.
Council Member Clapp advised that she has been hearing from some of hc:r constituents that lhc:y feel that
Council is stalling. that this is ano1hc:r Sludy, when in fact we do not have a cv111J'l1Ct with Equitable. this
is not a stall . She: said it is hc:r undcl'Slallding that lhc:y are simply critiquing an actual plan and that lhc:y
are making good use: of lhc:ir time. Ms. Clapp opined that lhc:y need 10 c:ommunicale some of these key
points to the: public so that lhc:y have a greater undcl'Slallding. Cenainly, she commcnled. Council

asked if it is a City computer or a personal one . Council Member Clapp advised that it is a personal
computer.
(v) Council Member Waggoner said he: would like to add a little to Council
Member Clapp's comments. He noced the press release that went out on Cinderella C ity didn't really
have any date. times or dateline on it or anything. He noced it seems to him that would be one of the:
things that would be important 10 our citizens. is that by October 31 • we arc supposed 10 have this review
done. That that really fits within the: overall plan. or project timclinc. that we had established early on.
Mr. Waggoner opined that that would be imponant for them to know. that thc:rc really isn't a clclay or
anything like that. that it fits right in with the: previously proposed time schedule. Mayor Burns noted that
the: last paragraph in the: middle said -make final n:commcndations for site development by the: end of
October.-Mr. Waggoner said he must have missed that .
(vi) Council Member Habenicht :
I . She said she agreed that it is time to do anolher release. She commented that if people are out
there. questioning and not quite sure what it is they arc doing. ii is clear that maybe we need to get more
news out there about it. She opined that it really is exciting and that we are really looking at transit
oriented development options for that site and really looking at the: assets our community has and really
doing something 10 look toward that.. She said it is exciting and she: is really happy aboul it. Council
Member Habenicht staled she really wanted to thank the Slaff for bringing it fonwud and bringing these

with staff. and talked to several Council members over the pa51 several months. regarding a silllllion on
Union between Federal and the Plalle of truck traffic in an R-1-A Zone that has been just so troublesome
to people for so very long. She opined that Council really needs to look at the whole area of truck traffic
and maybe that piece too . She advised she would like to do a Sludy on that. a study session that would
discuss that and maybe bring up this issue as well.
3 . She advised that she: too will be attending National Night Out. She said she: asked somdlody this
evening if lhc:y are going to eight poc lucks if they need to bring eight poc lucks dishes and we don't. Ms.
Habenicht said she just thought she would share that becaUIC she feels uncomfonablc coming cmpcy
handed. She noted she might Slop in at a few more if she has the: chance. that it is a ~. woaderful
event. She commented that it has become almost as special in Englewood as our Fourth of July . our
parade and everything else. She said she: thinks we really all get out and talk to each ocher and that is

I. He commented that. also in the press release. where it refers to the final n:commendalions by the
end of October by CRNA and Compass. it says also ~during that lime Englewood officials and Equitable
real estate, the current owner of the mall. anticipate complclion of their ncgoliations wbicb will tnnsfer
ownership to the City.·· So. Mayor Bums explained. they arc hoping that during the lime they arc doing
the additional wort with CRNA that they can nail down the Equitable agreement. He notcd it takes about
60 days for an ordinance to bca>mc affective and that is the vchiclc we have to use for that. So, be said. it
will be 60 to 90 days before that is complete: anyway and by that time we should have the report back from
CRNA and Compass.
2 . Mayor Bums said there were a couple of other things he forgot he was going to bring up at SCudy
Session but they didn't have time. He asked who docs the maintcnana: on the panels at Oxford on South
Santa Fe. He noted there arc a lot of weeds growing there now and they arc beginning to look a little bit
unsightly . He said he was wondering whose responsibility it is to maintain that. Acting City Manager
Esterly noted that location is in the City of Sheridan. Actually. Mr. Esterly said. he and Jerrell Black
visited that very site at lunch time today. He advised that Interim Assistant City Manager Black is going
to be in contact with Ilic City of Sheridan to see if they would like for us to do that maintenance for them
and talk about how we might be compensated for doing that.
3 . Mayor Bums asked what is the completion date for the Windcrmcrc project. Acting City
Manager Esterly advised that lie docs not know what the completion date is, but that they also drove over
the bridge this afternoon. So. he noted. the bridge is now open but there is a lot of the improvements to
that and finishing up that arc not complete. And of course. be said. they arc just staning to get into the S
curve alignment right now and it looks like that is getting ready to be paved very shortly too. Mr. Esterly
stated that it is his expectation that by the end of the 5UIIIIIICr or the beginning of the fall that that is going
to be opened up. He noted that has really improved the appcaranc:c of that area quite a bit. Mayor Burns
agRcd that it has .
He said he noticed that right at Belleview too they arc doing curb and guttering around thoac tnff"ic
control lights. He asked if there will be some landscaping bc:lweca the comer and the fencing for the
ballparks and also the miniature golf. He asked if that is going to be fiDisbcd olf. Acting City Manager
Esterly stated they would have to pull out the PUD and ICC wllll is pia..-1 in there . He said be finds it
hard to believe there will be areas left untouched . There arc I variay of comers in there. but on the
nortlicast corner there is a meandering sidewalk that is rclalivdy anractive. Mr . Esterly said that it is bis
presumption that tllC space between the meandering sidewalk that we allowed in that location and the curb
line is going to be landscaped in some manner. He noted be docs not have the details on that. but that
they can go back and review the PUD and see what those details arc .
Council Member Habenicht advised that she has had SC\'Cr.11 COllllllClllS.. people commenting that they
were sorry to see the loss of trees near the nature area there. the parting area there. She said she Wlllled
to verify that her understanding is that Parks and Rec will be rcplutiag that area. that there will be some
trees added there. Interim Assistant City Manager Black advised that is pan o( the project.
Regarding the bike path projcd through Belleview Part. Mayor Burm QJIDIDCIMed thal be bad IIOlic:ed
they have taken a fairly good swath on either side oithe coacrclC pllll a they ID aloaa and be said be
wondered if that would be remedialcd somehow wbca that's ftnisbed. Mr. Black advised thal it si-ld be.
He noted that they will have to review both the bridle pn,jcc:I and tbc bike pa&h projec:l and sec wbcrc thal
fits . But. be awed. it is his undcnlanding that uecs wiU be plaaled ia thal area and they wiU ca1linly
address the other areas next to the bridge and adjacenl to the path . Mayor Bums said he thinks this is
really going to be quite a projcd before it is through. He DOied be -sure it will lake a couple ~ )'Cll'I.
but if South Subwban Part Foundation and our cities can gel that bike path over to the South Plane Riwr

and then connect it up on the east side with the Highline Canal that will be quite a bike path by the time it
is through. Mr. Black stated we arc moving forward with that project.
Also . Council Member Habenicht said. she thinks it is time to Slal1 talking seriously about seeing that bike
path connection from the creek that goes through Cinderella City and acroa Danmouth. She opined we
rally need to get a bike path there for those people who live in that section of the City too. access to the
Anpaboc Greenway . Ms . Habenicht commented that she thinks we need to remind oursc1-that that is
an imponant thing to do .
(viii) Council Member Habenicht said she wanted to share that her daughter just
came home. that she haSll 't been here since Christmas and they brought her back from the airport along
Santa Fe . She said her daughter commented "wow, this is rally beautiful ." Ms. Habenicht said she just
wanted to thank the City for the beautiful landscaping they have done, the beautiful yellow tiger lily 's and
the pink roses and all of that. She said it is very attractive and it was sort of neat to have somebody not
see it for awhile and see the change and just be wide eyed about it. She said she wanted to compliment
staff on that.
Mayor Bums commented that he wanted 10 thank Mr . Esterly for the idea of switching those funds with
the South Windermere project and the landscaping, so that we were in control of the landscaping. He said
it makes him feel good. with all of the Tri-Cities meetings that we have had to make sure that we push the
landscaping on the South Santa Fe project. When it is finished it will make all of the difference in the
world with the way that looks.
Council Member Habenicht said she thinks they really should give the credit to Council Member
Vonnittag, because she thought it was initially his idea and staff'who picked up on it and made it real.
She noted they made it happen, but Mr. Vorrnittag came up with it.
(ix) Council Member Waggoner advised that there was some concern about the
parlting lot off of Windcnncre and how raising the grade on Windermere will affect that . He asked
Acting City Manager Esterly what is happening on that . Mr. Esterly staled that judging by what is going
on out there today. the parking lot is gone and is in the procas of being rcplaa:d. He noted he is not quite
sun: where the responsibilities play out between the Dcpanmenl of Transportation clcaling with the aa:ess,
which was nlOYCld further to the IOUlh . And so bow much cllhll is going to be done as pan cl the
Windermere Project and then the remainder cl the projecl being done as pan of the bike trail projecl down
below . So. be advised. there are I\W pieces cl activity in lhll area and be is DOI quite sure whal the
overlap is . But they were very clearly grading a new access road down into the parting lot right now and
were re-grading the entire parking lot .
Council Member Waggoner noted we were talking about using some Allen sludge for fill on that at one
time. Mr. Esterly said yes. at one time we were . But. Mr . Waggoner said. we are not anymore . Mr .
Esterly advised that currently we haven ·1 been .
(x) Mayor Burns said he has had a few comments from people asking wbctber
there is sufficient access by the busillCIICS along Windermere and the S c:urvc when we finish . He
commented that be knows that has been an iaue for -time ud be tllouglll a lot cl 0-imm bavc

13 . City Muaaer'• Report
(a) Acting City Manager Esterly said that Council Member Waggoner had asked that we
make sure to contact the City of Fon Collins to see if there was anything we could do to help out with
their flood issues. Mayor Bums commented that he was glad he brought that up. that he was going to ask
that also. Mr. Esterly noted tbll in fact. initially, it was difliaalt to make any son ofa phone contact. He
said Safety Scrviccs. through our emergcucy coordinaaor, made: contact through police communications
systems that they bad available to them . Mr. Esterly advised that we made I.be offer of help to their
emergcucy nwiagement qency and at this point in time they have not gotten back to us with any sort of
requests . We have re-initiated the offer on at least two oa:asions, to make sure that they know we are
available. if we can help them out. typically in the area of public works. with the equipment, staffing or
anything we can do to help and they haven 't asked us to help at this point in ti1ne . He stated we are
prepared to help. Mayor Bums said he was glad the offer was open . He said he was thinking of the area
of public works and he was glad Council Member Waggoner brought that up. But. he noted. they seem to
be getting a loc of help up there. that he thought lheir challenge was to manage all of the help they are
getting. Mr. Esterly said he was sure 1ha1 is a big pan of their problem right now. is just managing what
they have.
(b) Acting City Manager Esterly stated the Olher issue he wanted to talk on was the status of
the Compass, the CRNA projccl that the Mayor and SCVCllll ocher folks have mentioned this evening. He
advised that staff has been working with the group and having some initial discussions. They are
anticipating that the kick~ meeting for team orientation is going to be on August is"'. He noted that a
time and a place for such a meeting has yet to be determined. The group is looking toward a team of
approximately thiny members to be included. He said they have been talking with Englewood about a
reprcscntation that might consist of about ten folks. The City government would be contributing about
three to live people. they are looking for panicipation by perhaps lwo Council members. Mr. Esterly
noted that Council should keep in mind that this is aU subject 10 negotiation with them. but that these are
their ..,....ions He said they are looking for panicipation by two Council Members. two staff members.

Mayor Bums askcd Mr Esterl if they could possibly have a memo on this . Mr. Esterly said yes . Mayor
Bums noted dial he felt ,1 would be very helpful IO have a memo . Mr. Esterly said he would guarantee a
memo. becalllC they wtll probably be loolang for a Couacil affinnalion by motion . Firm ol all. he advised,
to panic:ipatc ,n this aa,v11y we have JUSI ,n gcncraJ cliscuucd this at Study Session and have taken no
formal action to actually authonzc lhcsc follui to pnxmd ahead . And. he said. they will probably want to
take some official action 10 appoint team members and designate people from the public. So. he said. in
looking forward 10 the e1gh1ccnlh they wtll be getting this memo out to Council and bctwccn now and
then they will have 10 be coming up Wllh lhc candidale lists .
Mayor Burns asked if they could gel some idea about whal the time commitment is going to be, how many
medings they anticipale. Mr. Estcr1y said yes . He advised tbal he and Mr . Simpson clisaassed that today
and they wercn 't prepared to answer that queslion. Mr. Esterly explained that the Olbcr thing that seems
to be important 100 is when the time commitments r-i to be made. if it will be during the workday or
after the workday or that type of activity . Council Member Vormittag said they would want to know bow
long they would be . Mr. Esterly agreed because. he noted, some folks in one scenario might want to be
involved and in anodicr they couldn ·1 participate .
(c) Acting City Manager Esterly said tic wan1ed 10 remind everyone 1ha1 the market demand
for a down1own hotel in Englewood repon should have been in everybody 's packet . And . he commented,
at some fu1ure time . ifthere is an interest . 1hey can schedule ii for furtlicr discussion al study session . BuL
he noted. he would await Council's request for thal. Mayor Bums said he lhought there was an interest .
Council Member Habenicht asked if 1hey could possibly refer 1ha1 to be part of the infonnation that goes
10 1hat CRNA group . Mr. Esterly said certainly . Ms. Habenicht suggested thal maybe after thal might be
a better time to discuss it. Mayor Bums opined that that would apropos to do that. Council Member
Vonnittag said aJso to hear what their recommendation is .
• • • • •
Mayor Bums advised !hat he 1alked to Cheryl SI. Clair and she had gotten her head together with Marie
Graham on the application to EPA to have the City designated as a Showcase City and one other
ingredient was they wanted three federal agencies 10 be involved in participating in !hat if that were
achieved . He noted 1ha1 one of lhem they were thinking about was HUD . and they were having a little
trouble figuring out how HUD would participate in this. He stated that Ms. St. Clair has advised him that
they got tOgclhcr and figured it out and Ibey have proposed HUD as the third agency . He advised that
EPA would be one and he thought the other one would be the Dcpanmcnt of Labor. Mayor Burns staled
that it completed the application and they were able to wort on that tOgclhcr and gel that application in in
a full form. Council Member Habenicht asked which application that was. M:lyor Bums asked if she
remembered the Brownfield Grant. Ms. Habenicht said yes . Mayor Burns explained that there is anolhcr
dcsignalion for only ten cities in lhe country that we were invited to submit. He said he thought the initial
submittaJ went in earlier in the spring by EPA to be cleclaRd a Showcase City and what that means is you
gel extra help in rcvilaJizing industriaJ sites by networking with housing elements. job training and that
son of thing . So. he advised. 1h1s completes that applicauon . He noted that the local EPA administration
requested that Englewood submit this because with all of the things that arc going on in the City.
economic redevelopment. transportation and everytlung dse. they thought there were so many
components of the change and advancement in Englewood that it would make a good candidate for a
Showcase City . He said he is not sure when this will be decided. but that it would be quite a a,up for the
City ifwe were only one often in the country desiglllted by the National EPA . But. he COIIIIIICllled. they
told us locally that we have a chance at this. Council Member Vormittag uked if it would be this year.
Mayor Bums said he thought ii was probable. but thal they may be able to find out from Mr. Graham. He
pointed out thal that is a nice. initial coordination between the Housing Authority and the City .

BACKGROUND, ANALYSIS, AND ALTERNATIVES IDENTIFIED
,,_
The Cities of Englewood and Littleton own a total of 7040 acres of farmland to ensure stable and secure
biosolids recycling for the Littleton/Englewood Wastewater Treatment Plant. The Plant staff would like to place a
small portion (approximately 5%) of the 5760 acre Linnebur farm into the U.S Department of Agriculture
Conservation Reserve Program. The proposed area is highly erodible and crop production is much lower than
the farm average.
The U.S. Department of Agriculture will pay an annual rental fee per acre for these highly erodible lands to be
seeded and returned to grassland for a ten year conservation period. Biosolids may still be applied to the grass
areas. The rental payments are made directly to the farmer and not the owner. The farmer will in tum rent these
areas (through an amendment to the fann lease) in an amount equal to the annual USDA CAP annual payment.
The tenant tanner (Progressive Fanns) will plant the grass and maintain the area .
FINANCIAL IMPACT
The Littleton/Englewood annual proceeds from the USDA CAP program will total $23.70 per acre; whereas crop
proceeds (at~ farm yields and current prices) total $18.70 per acre annually .

Subject
Resolution supporting Ballot
Issue Number 10
Department of Public Works Rick Kahm, Acting Director of Public Works
COUNCIL GOAL AND PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION
No previous Council action.
RECOMMENDED ACTION
Staff recommends Council pass a resolution in support of Ballot Issue Number 10, the Colorado
Transportation Needs Act, which could increase Englewood's portion of the Highway Users Tax Fund
by $407,000, annually. This ballot issue is scheduled to appear on the November 4, 1997 general
election ballot.
BACKGROUND, ANALYSIS, AND ALTERNATIVES IDENTIFIED
The Colorado Municipal League supports the Transportation Financing Ballot Initiative being promoted
by the Citizens for Colorado Transportation Network (CTN). As stated in the attached memorandum
from Acting Director of Public Works, Rick Kahm, dated July 31, 1997, the City of Englewood could
realize increased funding in the amount of approximately $407,000 beginning in 1998, which would
significantly improve the City's ability to accomplish needed major road improvement projects; funding
for future paving district improvements; and increased funding for ongoing annual street and traffic
maintenance needs, among others.
These additional Highway User Tax Fund revenues would be allocated on a 60% state, 22% county,
and 18% municipal basis and would provide the means for accomplishing extensive transportation
maintenance and capital needs .
FINANCIAL IMPACT
It is anticipated the City will receive approximately $847,446 in Highway User Tax Funds for 1997. An
approximate $407,000 annual increase in the City's transportation funding could be realized upon
passage of this ballot issue .

Chuck Esterly, Acting City Manager /1~
Rick Kalun, Acting Director of Public Wo¥ t;:
July 31, 1997
TRANSPORTATION FINANCING BALLOT INITIATIVE
As you know, the Colorado Municipal League is supporting the Transportation Financing Ballot Initiative,
promoted by the Citizens for Colorado Transportation Network (CTN).
Basically, increases in the motor fuel tax, vehicle registration fees, and the creation of a "new wheels" tax could
add about $33 million per year to the Highway Users Tax Fund (HUTF) for municipalities. The proposed
annual share back formula of 18%, to municipalities would man approximately $407,000 extra for Englewood,
beginning in 1998. The initiative sunsets on December 31, 2010.
Passage of this initiative would provide the City with additional needed funding for:
• Inca Street north, from Cinderella City to Dartmouth;
• Inca Way south, from Inca Way/Jason to Windermere/Kenyon;
• Girard Avenue, from Englewood Parkway to Elati;
• Proposed Floyd Avenue improvements;
• General ttaffic system upgrades;
• Funding for future paving district improvements;
• Increased funding for ongoing annual street and traffic maintenance needs.
Additionally, increased revenue at the State and County levels will contribute to projects that may have a
positive effect on our community. Most of us could be indirectly affected by projects included in the "Strategic
Transportation Program" adopted by the Colorado Transportation Commission in 1996. Improvements to
many highways in the State's intentate system, additional Santa Fe Corridor improvements, and proposed
congestion improvements on l-25, US 6, and 1-70 will at sometime impeet all of us.
Staff believes that this initiative is a "step in the right direction" to lddreu many of the Slate, regional, and
local ttansportation improvement needs . We would recommend that City Council pall a raolution in support
of Ballot Issue Number I 0, the Colorado Transportation Needs Act, which is being circulared for signamres for
the November 4, 1997 General Election Ballot.
I have attached a draft of a proposed resolution for your review and comment
Please let me know if you would like to discuss this issue in further detail or have my additional questiou.

Sublect Proposed bill for an
ordinance removing criminal
penalties for minor traffic
violations
City Council Nancy Reid, Assistant City Attorney
COUNCIL GOAL AND PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION
The goal is to incorporate some civil aspects into the Englewood Municipal Court system. There has
been no previous Council Action.
RECOMMENDED ACTION
Staff recommends the passage of this Ordinance amending Title 1, Chapters 4 and 7; and Title 11,
Chapter 1 and 1 B, of the Englewood Municipal Code 1985, which establishes a new decriminalization
program decriminalizing minor traffic violations and provides for a civil remedy.
BACKGROUND, ANALYSIS, AND AL TEANATIVES IDENTIFIED
Minor traffic violations are easily and efficiently handled as civil matters. Several municipalities in the
Denver Metropolitan area are currently using this system. This system should streamline the large
volume of minor traffic violations by eliminating a mandatory court appearance and by providing for a
civil collection by placing a hold on the renewal of drivers licenses for any who do not pay the penalty
imposed.
It is expected that this will result in a minimal financial impact. It is estimated that there will be a
reduction in costs associated with failures to appear and l'98Ulting warrants. There is expected to be a
reduction in actual courtroom time used.
