Commissioner Pokraka called the meeting to order . Roll call was taken and a quorum was established.
Commissioner Pokraka announced the purpose of the meeting was to
determine whether or not shift bidding proceedure is a mandatory issue for bargaining.
Mike Smith was objected to by Criswell. The Board had taken an
informal phone vote and Stan Damas was selected and agreed to by
all parties. Commissioner Pokraka announced the presence of Stan
Damas, since Ben Craig is out of town. Objections from both
sides were asked for. There were none. It was agreed by all
parties concerned that Mike Smith would not be called as a
witness in view of the shared office with Mr. Damas.
Let the record reflect that during the July 31 meeting, it was
formally stipulated that the August 1 ordinance date for impasse
conclusion was waived by mutual agreement of both the City and Englewood Police Benefit Association.
The hearing of testimony as to whether or not the shift bidding
procedure was a mandatory issue for bargaining was held on July 31 and August 1.
On August 5, 1985, the Board reconvened to render a decision
regarding the issue of shift bidding as a mandatory issue for
bargaining with the same members present. A motion was made by
JoEllen Turner and seconded by Janet Kerzic that the issue of
shi ft bidding is a mandatory issue for bargaining per the attached findings of the Board.

Board of the City of Englewood on July 31, 1985, commencing at
6:30 p.m. The hearing continued on August 1, 1985, at which
time the taking of evidence was concluded. The Englewood
Police Benefit Association was represented by John A. Criswell,
Attorney at Law. The City was represented by Jack Olsen, City
Attorney. The Career Service Board was advised by Stanislaw s.
Damas, Esq. Counsel for both the City and the Association
stipulated and agreed that they had no objection to Stanislaw
s. Damas serving as an advisor to the Career Service Board
provided that Michael L. Smith, the law partner of Stanislaw S.
Damas, would not be called as a witness by either party.
The issue presented in this case is whether a specific
City proposal advanced in bargaining is a aandatory subject of
bargaining within the meaning of Sec. 137.5(a) of the Englewood
Home Rule Charter. The City proposal concerns Article 35(b) of
the Collective Bargain in g Agreement between the parties

( 2) three ( 3) month intervals. The fi rat bid each
year will be for November 1 through January 31 and
February 1 through April 30. The second bid each
year will be for May 1 through July 31 and August 1
through October 31.
There will be ten biddable positions on each
watch. The bidding process will begin with the most
senior police officer bidding the position of his
choice. In the descending order of seniority each
remaining officer will have a choice of the remaining
biddable positions. All specialized poai tiona such
as motorcycle officer, crime prevention officer,
mounted patrol officer, etc. will not be open to bid.
The specialized assignments along with any no bid
positions on a watch will be in addition to the ten
biddable positions on each watch.
The City proposal as this Board understands it, is to change
the number ten in the fourth paragraph above to eight and to
change the third paragraph to provide for annual bidding rather
than semi-annual bidding. In the event that these proposals
are deemed to be mandatory subjects of bargaining, the
negotiations have apparently progressed to the point where the
parties are at impasse, and the Career Service Board would then
be bound to schedule a further hearing in order to resolve the
negotiations impasse pursuant to Sec. 137.6 of the Englewood
City Charter.
It should be noted at the outset that the Englewood City
Code provides in Sec. 3-5-7:b that hearings concerning the
resolution of impasses must be concluded by no later than
August 1. In view of the fact that this matter was not brought
to the attention of the Career Service Board until July 23,
1985, and that no document approximating an impasse statement,
as required by the City Charter was filed until August 1, 1985
[1), both the City and the Association have stipulated that the
requirement for concluding the hearing by no later than August
1, 1985, would be waived for the purposes of this dispute
regarding the bidding process to be included in the Collective
Bargaining Agreement to be effective January 1, 1986.
POSITIONS OF THE PARTIES
It is the position of the City of Englewood that its
1. Sec. 3-5-7 of the Code and its subparts requires compliance
with certain time lines when one or both aprties perceive an
impasse in negotiations exists. The Board urges that these
requirements be complied with in the future.
-2-

proposal with regard to Article 35 dealing with the bidding for
watches and days off is not a mandatory subject of bargaining
in that it is not a specifically enumerated topic defined
within the mandatory scope of negotiations as provided in the
Charter in Section 137:5, which provides as follows:
Randatory Subjects. The City and the certified
employee representative shall have the mutual
obligation to negotiate and bargain in good faith
over the following mandatory subjects: Wages, hours,
vacation, insurance (contribution levels and levels
of benefits only), holidays, administrative leave,
personal leave, military leave, disability leave,
funeral leave, dues deduction, grievance resolution
procedure (including cost and expenses associated
therewith), non-state or federally regulated or
mandated pension or retirement provisions
(contribution levels only), overtime pay formulas,
work uniform provisions, acting pay, longevity,
transfer procedure, procedures for suspension,
demotion and discharge, and education incentives.
That the maintenance of benefits shall also be
considered a mandatory subject under this section for
the period covering up to and including December 31,
1984, after which it will become a permissive
subject. City Charter Sec. 137:5(a).
The City further argues that the Association contention
that the inclusion of the word "longevity" within the scope of
mandatory negotiations is not synonymous with the term
"seniority" and hence, the City is under no obligation to
negotiate with the Association concerning what the City
perceives as a seniority system regarding bidding for shifts and hours of work.
The City additionally contends, all though it presented
no evidence on the point, that the Career Service Board should
not require the City to bargain a seniority shift bidding
procedure because the result of such a procedure would provide
that only inexperienced officers will be on the graveyard
shift, thus subjecting the citizens of the City of Englewood to
jeopardy by being deprived of more experienced officers during
such times as police expertise is especially needed within the City.
The City presented extensive evidence concerning the
intent of the framers of .the language of Sec. 137:5 of the
Charter which is here at 1ssue. The City contends that the
language is ambiguous, and accordingly the Career Service Board
is constrained to examine the history of the language and the
intent of its drafters to appropriately ascertain its meaning.
The Association insists on the other hand that the issue
before this Board has nothing at all to do with seniority.
-3-
I • •
•
•
• •
Rather, the Association contends that this case involves the
issue of whether the phrase "hours" as set forth in Sec. 137.5
(as quoted above), encompasses the duty of the City to
negotiate with the Association regarding the scheduling of the
hours that employees would be required to work. The
Association cites a number of cases arising under the National
Labor Relations Act for the proposition that the term "hours"
includes more than just the notion of the number of hours that
an employee would work, and requires the employer to bargain
with employees regarding the scheduling of those hours.
Additionally, the Association argues that the term "longevity",
as used in the Charter provision regarding the mandatory scope
of bargaining, is actually a synonym for seniority, and
accordingly, the City is under a mandate to negotiate with the
Association regarding its desire to schedule the work of
individual officers on a seniority basis.
DISCUSSION
This Board is convinced that the issue presented by the
dispute framed by the parties does not involve consideration of
the topic of seniority directly. Rather, the issue to be
decided is whether Charter Sec. 137:5, when it requires the
City and the employee representative to bargain in good faith
regarding "hours" includes within the scope of that term
proposals regarding procedures for determining when employees
would be required to work, in addition to the total numer of
hours worked.
The Board is convinced that applying a literal meaning
to each of the words within the mandatory scope of bargaining
is an approach too narrow and restictive to reasonably have
been in the contemplation of the drafters of the Charter or the
people who voted on it. This perception is buttressed by
certain evidence presented by the City. City Exhibit J,
includes a verbatim transcript of a meeting between the City
Manager, Mr. Andy McCown, and a number of employees of the City
of Englewood. In a discourse reflected on page 8, the City
Manager indicated that the word, "wages," appears within the
scope of mandatory bargaining. In conjunction with that, the
City Manager advises the employees that under that term, the
City would be compelled to negotiate with the Association
concerning a proposal to pay more senior employees a higher
rate of pay that less senior employees. The term "wages" is
apparently not limited, according to the City Manager, to the
rigid notion that a salary rate is determined for a specific
job.
The Career Service Board is persuaded that a similar
rationale applies to the next word in the listing of mandatory
subjects of bargaining appearing in the Charter. That next
term is "hours." The Association's contention appears to be
that the City is compelled to negotiate with it concerning the
manner in which employees working hours can be scheduled. This
-4-

is not per c eived t o be mater i a l ly different f r om a ll owi n g
n egotiation conce r ning different wage rates on a seniority
basis. At the time the Charter Amendments were drafted it
appears to have been understood by City officials that the
terms used to describe the mandatory scope of bargaining would
be given a suff i ciently broad meaning to include common sense
concepts reasonably related to the specific words enumerated
there. The Board finds that this conclusion is applicable to
this dispute. The Charter provision requiring bargaining on
hours requires the parties to negotiate concerning more than
just the number of hours of work.
Whether the scheduling of the hours of work must be
nego t iated requ i res further analysis . The Career Service Board
is mindful of the extensive body of decisional law concerning
similar provisions appearing in collective bargaining laws of a
variety of states and mun i cipalities i n the country. See, for
example, Government Em lo ee Relations Re orter, Vol . 1, Sec.
51, State an Loca Programs. A rev1ew o sue prov1s1ons
indicates that the Englewood Ci t y Charter is not the only
public sector collective bargain i ng law that has a listing of
mandatory subjects of bargaining wh i le at the same time
delineating certain management ri ghts to be preserved .
Commentators have ind ic ated that the cou r ts have had great
difficulty r e c onc i l i ng apparently contradictory provisions
which appear on the one hand to expand the mandatory scope of
negotiations and o n the other to preserve inviolable certain
management ri ghts. [2) Professor Reginald Alleyne, a
well -known auth o r i ty on Public Sector Labor Law , indicated that
even i n cases where statutory prov i s i ons protected managemen t
r i gh ts , th e resu lt s are not s i gn i f i cantly different when
c ompa ri ng p riva te a nd pub l i c se ctor s c ope of bargaining cases .
[ 3) See , f or example , C ity of Belo i t v. Wi sconsin Emplo!ee

N.W.2d 231, 92 LRRM 3318 (1976).
The Board is further pe rsu a d ed tha t t he appr o p ri a te
method of analyzing whe the r a p articula r t op ic re l a t ed t o t h e
question of hours is with in the ambit of mandatory n egoti a tions
is to apply a balancing te s t. See A lleyne a rticl e , s~p ra. Put
more precisely, the Board adopts the rationale enunc1ated by a
number of courts that disputes concerning the scope of
mandatory bargaining should be resolved by balancing the
interests of the employees in the topic under consideration, as

opposed to its effect on the operations of the City or
Department as a whole. The situations that impact employees
greatly and affect the quality or efficiency of the
governmental operation little would clearly be bargainable. On
the other hand, matters which have a greater impact on the
governmental entities or their citizens prerogative to
determine policy as opposed to the impact on employees, would
be considered within the sole province of management and not
subject to mandatory bargaining. This approach is patterned
after an approach adopted by a number of courts interpreting
public sector bargaining frameworks. Borough of Atlantic

Borough of Atlantic Highlands.
Applying the foregoing analysis, to the facts of record
in this case, the Board finds that the scheduling of work hours
is indeed a mandatory subject of bargaining under the Englewood
Home Rule Charter since the scheduling clearly affects
employees, and has not been shown to unduly hamper the
determination of policy in the Police Department, nor have an
undue adverse affect on the public.
FINDING AND ORDER
The Career Service Board hereby finds that the
scheduling of employee working hours is a mandatory subject of
bargaining under Sec. 137:5 of the Home Rule Charter of the
City of Englewood, and accordingly, orders the issue of shift
bidding set forth in the Stipulated Impasse Statement to be
submitted to the Career Service Board forthwith, pursuant to
Sec. 137:6 of the Englewood City Charter and applicable
Municipal Code provisions, except as such requirements were
previously waived.
Dated this ~ day of August, 1985.

Commissioner Pokraka called the meeting to order. Roll call was
taken and a quorum was established.
Commissioner Turner moved that the minutes for June 20, 1985 be
approved with stated corrections. Commissioner Fitzpatrick
seconded and the vote was unanimous.
Item three on the agenda was business from Association's. Peter
Jueneman, AFSCME President was not present. Ron Beck was present
to notify and discuss the Impasse issue between the City and the
Englewood Police Benefit Association. Jack Olsen and Peter
Vargas were present on behalf of the City.
The City was not in agreement that Impasse had been reached. Both
parties had reached agreement on everything but one issue. That
issue, in the view of the City, is not a mandatory subject for
negotiations. The City realizes they differ with EPBA on whether
or not it is a negotiable subject for bargaining and requests the
Board to determine whether this issue is a negotiable issue. The
City feels it involves assignment of employees.
Ron Beck agreed that agreement had been reached on all but one
issue and that issue is seniority rights, which EPBA feels is a
negotiable subject. The disagreement is on the number of
biddable slots that appear in the contract and the Police
Department wishes to remain status quo as the current contract
reads. The City wishes to reduce that number. EPBA does agree
with the City that the Board needs to determine whether this is
a negotiable issue before impasse can be determined and also
requests a hearing.
Chairman Pokraka informed both parties that if it is determined
that it is a mandatory subject for bargaining and impasse is
determined, a hearing must be completed before August 1, 1985 in
I • •
(

•
• ..
accordance with Charter because the Board's decision must be in
by August 10, 1985.
Commissioner Fitzpatrick asked whether both parties brought this
subject to the table. Mr. Vargas responded that it was an item
the City presented as an element of the total package. Mr.Beck
stated there was a mutual agreement to discuss this issue. Mr.
Vargas stated that there was a tentative agreement reached at the
negotiating table July 1 and that contract was not ratified by
the Association and that is why the issue is being brought before
the Board now.
A meeting was set for Wednesday, July 31, 1985 at 6:30 p.m. to
determine if the subject of biddable positions is a mandatory
bargaining issue. Commissioner TUrner expressed her concern about
being able to comply with the Charter and complete the hearings
before August 1, 1985. The City would agree to waive the deadline
if need be. The Board set a tentative date of Thursday, August
1, 1985 at 6:30 p.m. if impasse is necessary and both parties
need to be ready to present their evidence then and limit their
time-frame to one night. Both parties must provide a declaration
of impasse statement outlining their position and final offer.
Peter Vargas, Assistant City Manager, informed the Board that the
ratification vote for EFFA will take place this week. The Board
asked Peter Vargas about EEA negotiation. Vargas responded that
the City had contacted the group but had received no response
from them, so the City assumed they agreed with the proposal.
Peter Vargas updated the Board on the Fire/Police Pension
Withdrawal Program. The Board recognized that a letter from Jack
Olsen has been received. When the City wants the Board to render
a decision, they are to ask the Recording Secretary to inform the
Board and a meeting will be set up to hear issues. The City
feelsthat the Council is the final authority on this issue and
the CSB has no veto power. The Board will hold opinion on the
matter until such time as a hearing is held.
Commiss i oner Kerzic moved to pay the following bills:
Aisenberg $5,420 .60
Kruger 3,478.60
Craig 476.00
Comm i ss i oner Turner seconded and the vote was unanimous.
commissioner Fitzpatrick moved to approve the budget and set a
time to go before the City Council to request an increase in
funds since the Board is bankrupt due to the unexpected number of
grievance hearings. Commissioner Kerzic seconded. The roll call
vote was unanimous. All Board members will appear at the next
Council meeting on August 5, 1985 .
commissioner Fitzpatrick moved that Attorney Mike Smith be
contacted for assistance with impasse hearings since Career
I • •

Service Board Attorney Ben craig will be out o! town.
Commissioner Kerzic seconded and vote was unanimous.
Next item !or discussion was the Leydon grievance. The Board
noted that the Hearing Officer's recommendation and a letter !rom
Leydon•s Attorney John Criswell protesting the recommendation,
was received. The City has until July 29 to issue a protest i!
they wish. Recording Secretary will notify all Board members
when the protest has been received and a aeeting will be
scheduled at that tiae. co .. issioner Pokraka announced she will
not be participating in the Leydon hearing.
Steve O'Neal was present and his grievance request was heard by
the Board. Since no letter o! appeal rights was on record, Mr.
O'Neal agreed to waive that right. Commissioner Fitzpatrick moved
to the timeliness o! the request and a hearing date o! August 15,
1985 at 6:30 pm. was set. The vote was unanimous.
Ivory O'Roy was present to discuss his appeal request. City
Attorney Jack Olsen requested the Board to decide whether there
should be a hearing since it was not the intention o! the parties
involved in the last hearing !or Mr. O'Roy that a year be allowed
to pass before Mr. O'Roy obtained counsel. The Board will
consider the issue further on August 8, 1985 at 6:30 p.m.
Since there were no further issues to be heard, the Board
adjourned into Executive Session.

Commissioner Pokraka called the meeting to order. Roll call was

The purpose of this meeting was to hear testimony relating to the
Ivory O'Roy appeal. After several hours of testimony and a short

City of Englewood and Mr. Ivory O'Roy, withdrawing the appeal in
return for full unemployment benefits during the time after his
termination from the City. Mr. O'Roy stated he fully understood
the agreement and voluntarily signed the agreement.
In view of the fact there was an agreement between the parties
after the close of the hearing, the Board did not render its original decision.

Vice Chairman Pokraka called the meeting to order. Roll call
was taken and a quorum was established.
The first order of business was approval of minutes as follows:
July 25, 1985: Commissioner Fitzpatrick moved and Kerzic secon-
ded that minutes be held until the following changes be made:
Item Three: Last sentence to read:"Both parties are to provide a
declaration of impasse and final offer statement outlining their
position. If impassee is necessary hearing must be conducted and completed by August 1, 1985".
The Recording Secretary was asked to check tape of this meeting
and see who informed the Board about the EFFA ratification vote, and correct minutes if necessary.
Paragraph Six: Last sentence to read: "The City feels that the
Council is the final authority on this issue and the CSB has no
veto power. The Board will hold opinion on the matter until such time as a hearing is held."
The Board requested Recording Secretary to check tape carefully
to s ee if City and EPBA waived impasse date and time requirement s
and if so add these to the minutes.
JULY 31, 1985: Commissioner Fitzpatrick moved and Commissioner
Turner seconded minutes be held until following corrections were made:
Paragraph Two: Mike Smith was objected by Criswell. The Board
took an informal phone vote and Stan Damas was selected and
agreed to by all parties. Commissioner Pokraka announced the
presence of Stan Damas as the Career Service Board Attorney since
Ben Craig is out of town. It was agreed by all parties concerned
that Mike Smith would not be called as a witness in view of the
s hared office with Mr. Damas.

Paragraph Seven: Add the following sentence "Let the record re-
flect that during the July 31 meeting it was formally stipulated
that the August 1 ordinance date for impasse conclusion was
waivedby mutual agreement by both the City and Englewood Police Benefit Association."
AUGUST a, 1985: Commissioner Kerzic moved and Fitzpatrick secon-
ded that the minutes be held until the following corrections have been made:
Do separate set of minutes for the August 15, 1985 hearing. In-
clude the Facts and Findings with the appropriate minutes.
AUGUST 15, 1985: Commissioner Turner moved and Fitzpatrick
seconded that the minutes be held until the following corrections have been made:
Paragraph One: To read "Commissioner Pokraka withdrew from any
discussion in the Leydon matter. The chair was turned over to

taken and a quorum was established."
AUGUST 20, 1985: Commissioner Fitzpatrick moved and Commissioner
Turner seconded that minutes be held until the following correc-tions have been made:
Change date to September 16, 1985 and include all previous hear-
ings from August 20, 27, and September 16, 1985. Please note
that the Board meet for two Executive Sessions on September 9 and
13 for study of facts and findings to render a decision.
Item three on the agenda was Association's Choice. Let the
record reflect that no one was present.
Item four was City Manager's Choice. Again let the record reflect that no one was present.
Item five on the agenda was Commissioner's Choice. The first
item was Old Business. The following bills were presented and approved:
Damas & Smith -$4,656.88
Ben craig -$2,523.10
884.00
Please note for the record, several telephone conference calls
were held with City Attorney. The Board has requested many times
that the Attorney not have conversation without Board approval.
The Budget was reviewed. A clarification of Board salary was
d i scussed. Commissioner Fitzpatrick moved and Commissioner Ker-
z i c seconded that a duly authorized meeting is defined as those
for approving budgets, assume Board responsibilities regarding
labor relations, and/or appeals. Sections 3-1-4d and 3-2-4b were
discussed as reference. A maximum of $100 per month be paid to the Board.

It was also noted that Section 3-2-5b amendment never came b e fore
the Board. Commissioner Fitzpatrick moved and Comm i ssioner Turn-
er seconded that a note be sent to the Mayo r a n d the Ci ty Co u nc il
addressing the following questions:
1 ) council's reasoning why Board was not noti f i ed , as the
Charter gu i delines requi re i t.
2) Since the Board views this Section as a redundancy of Section
3-1-4d3F, why is it necessary.
Commissioner Kerzic moved to approve budget for month ending Au-
gust 31, 1985. Commissioner Fitzpatrick seconded. Commissioner
Fitzpatrick still has questions regarding Leyden transcript
charges and will have it ready for next meeting.
Item six on the agenda was new business. First item of business
was acceptance of Mr. Craig's resignation as of 9/19/85. Commis-
sioner Turner moved and Commissioner Kerz i c seconded. Vote was
u nan i mous. Comm i ssioner Pokraka will notify him via phone.
Commissioner Turner asked for a discussion of Rule #3.3, Filings
of the Board. Since the Board has no attorney at the present
time, she felt it was necessary to give direction to the Record-
ing Secretary in case of an emergency. Commissioner Fitzpatrick
suggested that the Chairman of the Board or Vice-Chairman be
called and that person be responsible for contacting a new
Attorney.
There was discuss i on about the h i ring of a new Attorney. Commis-
sioner Turner suggested h i r i ng Damas. Commissioner Kerzic volun-
teered to contact Stan Damas to see if he is interested. Commis-
sioner's Turner and Fitzpatrick suggested others be looked at
also. A meeting wi l l be cal l ed i n October to discuss expectations
of a new attorn ey , cleri ca l and Board p r ocedures .
Other n e w bus iness was d i scu ss i on of i nformal meet i ngs to be he ld

Commi s sioner Fitzpatrick would like the record to reflect that he
would have had great reservation of hiring a Hearing Officer i f
the Board had known their decision made no difference and the
case was going to District Court.
Commissioner Kerzic moved and Comm i ss i oner Fitzpatrick seconded
to adjourn.

SPECIAL HEARING
Janet Kerzic, JoEllen Turner Don Weber, Cathy Pokraka
Torn Fitzpatrick
Mel BeVirt, Employee Relations Director
Searl Brier, Personnel Analyst
Roy swanson, Union Rep
Pete Juenemann, EEA President
Jim Abshire
Chairman Don Weber called the meeting to order. Roll call was taken and a quorum was established.
Chairman Weber read the letter from the EEA to the Board
notifying that they were at impasse. He also acknowledged
receipt of a letter from the City questioning the Board's
jurisdiction because of the Charter guidelines not being meet.
Commissioner Turner read from the Charter outlining the dates for
negotiations to begin and end. Negotiations are to begin on or
before May 15 of the year. The City and the Englewood Employees
Association have violated the Charter. The Career Service Board
is powerless to do anything concerning impasse or they would be going against the Charter.
Mel BeVirt stated that for the past few years both the City and
EEA chose to delay negotiations until September. In May, when
negotiations are to begin, current market information is not
available from surrounding cities. It was not a conscious
decision to forfeit impasse in order to have current market information.
Roy Swanson agreed that it was a mutual decision to delay
negotiations until September. EEA did not realize that
forfeiture of impasse could occur. They were not attempting to
violate the Charter, but to make the information used for comparison more current.
Chairman Weber suggested a Charter change to avoid this problem
in the future. Commissioner Pokraka stated that the budget
needing to be completed by the City at a certain time during the
year, is one of the original reasons for negotiation dates and
time guidelines. Following specific guidelines as they are
written in the Charter, allows for more consistent communication;
all parties involved are aware of what is expected of them at any
given time. A third reason for the dates being set as they were

in the Charter, was so if impasse does take place and either
party wishes to appeal the Board's decision to a vote of the
people, time guidelines can be met for a sepcial election prior
to the contract becoming effective on January 1 of the following year.
Chairman Weber suggested a mediator. Pete Juenemann commented
that the information used for negotiations is gathered by the
City and other Cities. The EEA doesn't actively search for
information. As a result the EEA must wait until the information
is researched and made available to them by the City. For this
reason the EEA agreed to delay negotiations. Chairman Weber
commented that at this time the Board's right to hear impasse is
non existent. Any decision the Board might make would be
irrelevant. Therefore, he suggested a mediator. Chairman Weber
also suggested discussion between the Employee Relations
Department and EEA, so that information could be gathered earlier
and Spring negotations could be resumed instead of agreeing to
delay negotiations until the Fall.
EEA stated they want to mediate.

Trea s urer's Report -Mr. Green p r esen t ed t he Treasur e r's Repo rt of revenues
a nd expend i tur es , da t e d Steptember 30, 198 5. There was no disc u ssion re-ga r ding this par t of the report.
As the second pa r t of the report, Mr. Green noted that he had a tentative
contract with Mr . Sachter regarding the balloon payment on the property
that the EDDA is buying . The balloon payment will be refinanced at 1~%
interest over the next five years. The Director will handle the necessary
arrangements and documents for signatures before November 21, 1985.
Also , Mr . Green presented the proposed 1986 budget to the Board . General
discussion followed. Attached to the budget is the Work Program for 1986
that outlines specific projects and overhead expenses . Pending progress in
the downtown redevelopment project, a Section II insert in Colorado Business
Magazine will be an important feature for the EDDA in 1986 . Also, it was
no t ed that the revenues for 1986 will not significantly increase because the
district is within the tax increment district.
Mr. Green moved, seconded by Mr. Oswald, to accept the Treasurer 's Report,
and specifically approving the 1986 budget. As there was no further discussion,

Public Imp r ovement Celebr ation -Mr . Pendleton r epo rted o n the c el e bra tio n
that was planned to sign ify the completion o f the public improvement project
for EDDA. There wer e about 70 -80 people in attendance. There al so seemed
to be a very positive atmosphere and acceptance of the new lights and land-scaping on South Broadwa y .
DIRECTOR'S REPORT
Public Improvement UP date -The Board directed Ms. Dietrich to write a letter
of commendation to SaBell's regarding the timelines s and fast pace of the
public improvement project. Although there were some minor disruptions during
construction, the contractor was very sensitive to th e merchant s and pro pert y
owners' concern s of pedestrian and automobile traffic.
Public Works Department ha s r ecommended a trash rece ptacle that now has been ord e red for the Public Improvement project.
For the mos t part, the project has been completed with the exce ption of minor
work . The City will notify the prop e rty owner s and business owners about the treatment a nd care of the flagstone tree grates.
Fall Festival Da~s -Al thou gh the wind p layed havoc with the booths during this
Fes tival, it is hoped by many who particpated i n the Festival that this will be
an annual event. The major suggestion to date is to plan the Festival earlier in the year for weather considerations.
Holiday Decorations -Because many questions have to be answered regarding
areas of responsibility for any holiday decorations in the downtown District,
an overall program will be developed that will outline these areas . This pro-
ject can be coordinated with the City of Englewood, City of Englewood
Chamber of Commerce, EDDA, businessowners, and property owners to ensure that
the holiday decorations are uniform, unique, and a n asset to downtown Englewood.
As there was no further business, the meeting was adjourned at 1:33 PM .

deny a variance by Part III, Section 60 of the Englewood City Charter . He said
he had proof of publication, and that posting is not necessary in this case. Mr. Fish asked that Mr. Arkin come forward.
Harry L. Arkin, Attorney for Burt's Interests, came forward for testimony.
Assistant City Attorney Reid stated that it would not be necessary for Mr. Arkin to be sworn in.
Mr. Fish stated that Mr. Arkin had been asked to attend in order to give a
commitment to screening and the other conditions suggested by the Staff •

Mr. Fish read the four conditions:
1. The building at 73-75-77 East Floyd Avenue and 3253-3255 South Lincoln
Street shall be brought into compliance with all applicable Uniform
Building Code and Fire Code requirements for the actual occupancy.
2. No cars awaiting service or being serviced shall be stored on the streets or outside the building.
3. There shall be no storage of non-operable or damaged or wrecked vehicles
on the parking lot east of South Lincoln Street on the Burt property.
4. Whenever there is a change in lessees for any of the businesses in the
building, the new lessee for that portion of the building must be a
conforming use for the B-1 Business District.
Mr. Fish asked what the position of the owner on these conditions would be.
Mr. Arkin said he could stated what he believed would be the position of
Burt Properties, saying that he thought they would accept his advice. He
said that after discussing the matter with Mrs. Romans and Mrs. Rothweiler,
he inspected the property and instructed his staff to notify the tenants to
comply with Items 1 and 2. He said that if a vehicle is wai ting for parts,
it should be permitted in the parking lot, but no damaged or wrecked cars
should be stored there. He said that such storage will stop.
Mr. Arkin said that the Urban Renewal Authority expressed an interest in the
property at 3300 South Broadway (Colorado Tool Company) and the va cant lot on
the east side of South Lincoln and north of Floyd on the west side of Lincoln,
north of Floyd. Studies have been made, and it was decided that until the
Brady project is finished , Burt will not move to redevelop the subject site.
They expect, however, within the next few years to demol ish the building on
the northwest corner of Lincoln and Floyd and build something in keeping
with the development that will exist in the area at that time.
Mr. Arkin said that the building has been auto-related since the 1940's. Burt
Chevrolet moved in approximately 1960, and this building , which was the old paint
and body shop has been used primarily for auto-related uses since that time.
He said the nonconforming use would have a short life.
Mr . Arkin said that the vacant lot on the northeast corner of Floyd and Lincoln
will be difficult to develop and that the City dit c h goes through the property.
He said that screening is expensive, and cedar fencing is expansive and slats
are easily damaged. He stated that Burt properties would see that the lot is
cleaned up and that no wrecked cars or auto parts would be stored on the lot.
He said that storage of the recreational vehicles should be permitted. He
acknowledged that they do not conform, but asked that, since they had been
there for 40 years and will not be there much longer, they be granted noncon-
forming use status. He said the building was not expected to last longer than a couple of years.
Mr. Arkin said that they have one tenant, Capital Auto Leasing, which has
refused to conform, as well as to pay the rent; and the process of eviction has
been undertaken. Except for that tenant, the businesses at this address have
met the Fire and Building Codes, as far as he is aware.
Mr. Fish asked if the tenants do not have leases which would interfere with
destroying this building to redevelop. Mr. Arkin said that Mr. Burt told him
I •
(
•
• ..

that there is a clause in all the leases which states that if the owner
wishes to destroy the building, he can give 120 days notice to the tenants,
who must then vacate the premises.
There were no further questions.
Dorothy Andrews Romans, 3600 South Broadway, the Assistant Director of Community
Development, was sworn in for testimony. She stated that, in reviewing the
background of the building, it was found that it has been used for auto-related
uses. It was not thought possible to register the build ing administratively,
and the matter was brought to the Board. She noted that Cove rt Aut o had been
a nonconforming use on Logan and Jefferson Avenue for many years before relocating
to the Burt Building. She said that the nonconforming use was not carried over
when they moved, as it should have been. The staff recommended that the
nonconforming use be approved so that the entire building can be brought up
to Code. She said concerning that four conditions that, while they should be
considered, the staff's primary interest is the ·registration of the building.
The r e were no questions. The Chairman asked if there were any further speakers.
Mr. Richard Jaramio, 3255 South Lincoln, was sworn in for testimony. He stated
that the parking lot is part of his lease. He had discussed with Mrs. Romans
what could be done to the lot to make it more appealing. He said that the items
on the lot may look like junk, but they are valuable to him; and the worst
things related to his business are stored on the parking deck on the west side,
which is raised and connected with his garage.
Mr. Hallagin suggested that all the objectionable storage be on the deck. Mr.
Jaramio said they are already doing their best to do so. He said they mostly
park movable cars on the east lot. Mr. Fish asked how long he had been using
the east lot. Mr. Jaramio said twelve years. Mr. Brown noted that Mr. Arkin
had stated that the tenants will be required to clean up the east lot. Mr.
Jaramio stated that the use of the lot is part of his lease, but they would
agree to screen to satisfy the City.
Mr. Brown stated that if the use is granted, it is likely to be based on the
assurance that the parking lot will be improved. llr. Jaramio said he would
cooperate as best he can . Ms. Lighthall asked about the 120-day notice
for breaking the lease. Mr. Jaramio said he was not aware of such a clause,
and had been assured by Mr. Allen Burt that the redevelopment would not come
as soon as suggested by Mr . Arkin.
There were no further questions, and no further speake r s . The staff had nothing
further to add. The Chairman c losed the Public Hearing fo r Case #2 7-85,
incorporating the Staff Report into the reco rd.
BOARD ~ffiER SEYMOUR MOVED THAT A NONCONFORMING USE BE GRANTED PE~MITTING
73-75-77 EAST FLOYD AVENUE AND 3253-3255 SOUTH LINCOLN STREET TO CONTINUE
USE OF THE PROPERTY FOR AUTO-RELATED BUSINESSES. THIS IS AN INTERPRETATION OF
THE COMPREHENSIVE ZONING ORDINANCE, SECTION 16.4-10 b, PERMITT ED PRINCIPAL
USES IN THE B-1 BUSINESS DISTRICT. THE FOLLOWING CONDITIONS ARE ATTACHED TO THE REGISTRATION.
1. THE BUILDING SHALL BE BROUGHT INTO COMPLIANCE WITH ALL APPLICABLE UNIFORM
BUILDING CODE AND FIRE CODE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE ACTUAL OCCUPANCY.
2. NO CARS AWAITING SERVICE OR BEING SERVICED SHALL BE STORED ON THE STREETS
OR OUTSIDE THE BUILDING, EXCEPT FOR THE USE OF THE PARKING DECK BELONGING TO COVERT AUTO BODY.

BUILDING, THE NEW LESSEE FOR THAT PORTION MUST BE A CONFORMING USE FOR THE B-1 BUSINESS DISTRICT.
Board Member Gage seconded the motion.
After some discussion, the members locked in their votes. When the votes
were displayed, five members had voted in favor of granting the late registra-
tion, and one member, Ms. Lighthall, had voted against it. The Chairman ruled that the motion was granted.
* * * * *
The Chairman opened the public hearing for Case No. 29-85. He stated that the
Board is authorized to grant or deny a variance by Part III, Section 60 of
the Englewood City Charter. He stated he had proof of publication and posting,
and asked that the staff identify the request.
Mrs. Rothweiler stated the applicant, Larry W. Anderson for Anderson Electric,
Inc., was requesting a variance for the late registration of a nonconforming
use to continue operating an electric company office and warehouse in the R-2,
Medium-Density Residence District. This is a variance from the Comprehensive
Zoning Ordinance, Section 16.4-5 b, Permitted Principal Uses in the R-2, Medium-
Density Residence, and a request to be alowed to register a nonconforming use
in accordance with Section 16.6-6. The Chairman asked that the applicant come forward.
Larry Anderson, 16155 Lomand Circle, Brighton, was sworn in for testimony. He
said they were applying for a late registration for a business which has been
on the property since 1958. The property is owned by Mr. Anderson's parents.
The business began as a father and son business and has grown to about ten
employees now. No retail sales are conducted, and it has never been necessary
to obtain a sales tax license. The Planning Division checked into the business
when the City asked that a sales tax license be obtained, and the Planning
Division said the business is not a permitted use in the R-2 Zone District.
Ms. Lighthall asked about the residential development which is nearby. Mr.
Anderson said the duplexes were built in 1955-1957, the development across the
street in 1963, and the four-plex in about 1972.
Mr. Fish asked what business is conducted on the premieses. fr. Anders on said
it is an electrical contractor service. The entire bus iness and warehouse
are on the two properties, 3556 South Downing and 3560 Sou th Downing, and
about 30 feet is rented from Mr. Simms at 3550 South Downing, for parking.
Mr. Gage asked if the building is used strictly as an office. Mr. Anderson
said it is, and is never used for a residential use .
Mr. Fish asked what kind of vehicles are parked on the property. Mr. Anderson
said ther~ are trucks with camper shells. All are recent models except for
one vehicle, an old mail truck, which will be removed. Mr. Fish asked about
the large vehicle, parked to the north. Mr. Anderson said that the truck
belongs to Mr. King, who is a neighbor, and is not associated with the business .

Ms. Lighthall asked how many vehicles belong to the business. Mr. Anderson said they have nine vehicles.
Mr. Fish asked if Mr. Anderson would agree to the conditions recommended by the staff. These conditions are as follows:
1. That off-street parking of vehicles and open storage of wood and other
company equipment be screened from the alley, South Downing Street, and
the residential property on both sides by fencing, landscaping or a combination.
2. That the Usable Open Space and Minimum Landscaping Requirements of the R-2, Medium-Density Residence District be met.
3. That a detailed plan for the screening, open space, and landscaping be
submitted to and approved by the Department of Community Development and
implemented within 70 days of the date of the hearing, with the exception
of any required planting which may be completed by June 15, 1986.
4. There can be no business activity, storage of equipment, or parking of
vehicles from Anderson Electric, Inc. on the property either north or
south of the property lines of 3556 South Downing.
5. The Zoning Enforcement Officer of the Department of Community Development
shall conduct an annual inspection of the premises and submit a written
report to the Board of Adjustment and Appeals about compl iance with these conditions.
Mr. Anderson said that he would have a problem with #4. He said that the property
to the south is owned by his father and has always been associated with the
business. He said the property to the north has been rented in order to keep
the company vehicles off the street. He said it might also be difficult to
meet the landscaping requirement because much of the lot is in concrete. There
is, however, a space 30 feet by 17 feet which is in grass now.
Mr. Fish asked why there had been no attempt in the past to register this use.
Mr. Anderson said the business just grew, and no one complained . He said that
the City Building Department has been aware of their existence. They are licensed and have obtained building permits.
There were no further speakers in favor of or in opposition to the variance.
The Chairman incorporated the Staff Report into the reco r d and asked if the
staff had anything further to add. Mrs. Romans said there were no additional comments.
Mr. Hallagin asked if the staff would object to Anderson Electric's renting
o ff-street parking space. Mrs. Romans said "no", and agreed that the off-street
parking vs. on-street parking was a valid point.
Ms. Lighthall noted that this business could not be classified as a Home
Occupation and has never been a permitted use in the district. It has always
been a violation. She asked how it can be registered even though it has gone
on a long time, and asked why the City had not stopped it. Mrs. Romans noted
that illegal businesses are now being found because of th e addition of the Zoning Enforcement Officer to the staff.
Ms. Lighthall suggested that the mud on the property be controlled either
with landscaping or concrete. Mrs. Romans said the Ord i na nc e would require
•
I • •
•

•

dust-free parking surfaces, and that the Board can add conditions. She said
the expansion of the business is a problem, and if the business is going t o
continue in a residential zone, it seems fair to require conditions to make
the business compatible with the neighborhood. The requirement that the
Landscape Ordinance be met would require 40% of the property to be devoted to landscaping.
BAORD MEMBER BROWN MOVED IN CASE NUMBER 29-85, 3556 SOUTH DOWNING STREET, THAT
A VARIANCE BE GRANTED FOR THE LATE REGISTRATION OF A NONCONFORMING USE TO
CONTINUE OPERATING AN ELECTRIC COMPANY OFFICE AND WAREHOUSE IN THE R-2, MEDIUM-
DENSITY RESIDENCE DISTRICT. THIS I S A VARIANCE FROM THE COMPREHENSIVE ZONING
ORDINANCE, SECTION 16.4-5 b, PERMITTED PRINCIPAL USES IN THE R-2, MEDIUM-
DENSITY RESIDENCE DISTRICT AND A REQUEST TO BE ALLOWED TO REGISTER A NONCONFORMING
USE IN ACCORDANCE WITH SECTION 16.6-6. THE FOLLOWING CONDITIONS WOULD BE REQUIRED:
1. THAT OFF-STREET PARKING OF VEHICLES AND OPEN STORAGE OF WOOD AND OTHER
COMPANY EQUIPMENT BE SCREENED FROM THE ALLEY, SOUTH DOWNING STREET, AND
THE RESIDENTIAL PROPERTY ON BOTH SIDES BY FENCING , LANDSCAPING OR A COMBINATION.
2. THAT THE USABLE OPEN SPACE AND MINIMUM LANDSCAPING REQUIREMENTS OF THE R-2,
MEDIUM-DENSITY RESIDENCE DISTRICT BE MET.
3. THAT A DETAILED PLAN FOR THE SCREENING, OPEN SPACE, AND LANDSCAPING BE
SUBMITTED TO AND APPROVED BY THE DEPARTMENT OF CO~ITY DEVELOPMENT AND
IMPLEMENTED WITHIN 60 DAYS OF THE DATE OF THE HEARING, WITH THE EXCEPTION
OF ANY REQUIRED PLANTING WHICH MAY BE COMPLETED BY J UNE 15, 1986.
4. THE ZONING ENFORCEMENT OFFICER OF THE DEPARTMENT OF CO~ITY DEVELOPMENT
SHALL CONDUCT AN ANNUAL INSPECTION OF THE PREMISES AND SUBMIT A WRITTEN
REPORT TO THE BOARD OF ADJUSTMENT AND APPEALS RELATIVE TO COMPLIANCE WITH THESE CONDITIONS.
Board Member Hallagin seconded the motion.
Ms. Lighthall stated that the business has grown to a point that it should
move to a business location. The business was never a legal use. Mr. Seymour
agreed. Mr. Fish said that the neighborhood has businesses nearby. Mr. Brown
said that granting the registration would permit some control of the business.
Mr. Seymour said that none of the conditions necessary for granting a variance
was met . Attorney Reid stated that the Board is not, strictly speaking, granting
or denying a variance; the request is for a late registration. She asked that
the members give findings in any case where a decision is made.
The members locked in their votes and ga ve their findings as follows:
Mr. Seymour said he voted "no" because the business does not belong in the
residential zone district because of its size and the number of vehicles present.
~!r. Hallagin voted "yes" because the business has been there for 25 years, and
the owners agreed to the conditions set forth by the City.
Mr. Brown voted "yes" because there was a hardship and no opposition.
Mr. Gage voted "yes" because there was a hardship, no opposition, and the business
has been there for over 20 years without complaints •
•
I • •
(
•
•

Ms. Lighthall voted "no" because they do not qualify for a home occupation.
Smaller and less obnoxious businesses have been denied. She realized that the
business started small but has now grown to a large business. She said, in her
opinion, it would not be possible to meet the Landscaping requirements.
Mr. Fish voted "yes", saying that the overriding issue for him was the continuance
of the business for 25 years. He said that this action is inconsistent when
the City was aware of the character of the area and the use.
There were four votes in favor of the registration, and two votes, Mr. Seymou r's
and Ms. Lighthall's, against. Because five votes in favor are required to grant
a motion, the Chairman ruled that the request was denie d. The Board left it
to the staff to decide how long t he applicant had to remove his business from the premises.
* * * * *
The Chairman opened the public hearing for Case No. 30-85 . He stated that the
Board is authorized to grant or deny a variance by Part III, Section 60 of the
Englewood City Charter. He said that he had proof of publication and posting
of the property and asked that the staff identify the request.
Mrs. Rothweiler stated the applicant, Prideaux Enterprises, Inc., was requesting
a variance to permit a total of 333 square feet of landscaped area instead of
the 2800 square feet which would be required by the Landscape Ordinance at this
address (3281 South Santa Fe Drive), which is in the I-1, Industrial District.
This is a variance from Section 16.4-18 c (2) (e) of the Compre hensive Zoning Ordinance.
The Chairman asked that the applicant come forward for testimony. Thomas
Prideaux, 7496 South Ivy Way, Englewood, 80112, was sworn in for testimony . He
said that his business, Carefree Spas and Pools, has been on East Belleview
Avenue since 1976. The business has grown, and in 1978 they opened a warehouse
in Sheridan. They decided to combine their operations to the property on 3281
South Santa Fe Drive. They want to put up a sign, and the sign permit has been
denied until the landscaping problem has been solved. He proposed a ground
sign surrounded by a planter box 12 feet by 12 feet. He objected to the state-
ment in the Staff Report that this property would not be different from the
situation on South Broadway. He said a horticulturist who questioned the
length of life of plants along a busy street did not believe that plants would
survive as well on Santa Fe Drive as along Broadway. South Santa Fe has a higher
speed limit, and a large amount of truck traffic, which increase road spray
and snow accumulation. He expressed a concern that large amo unts of landscaping
will increase the drainage problem. He said that 2800 square feet will restrict the use of his property for parking.
The Board considered the po ssible widening of South Santa Fe, and places where
landscaping could conveniently be installed. Mr. Hallagin asserted that there
is a g reat deal of parking possib le on the property. Mr. Seymour said the lot
is 28,000 square feet. The building takes 5,400 square feet, leaving 19,800
square feet for parking after the 2,800 square feet are taken out for landscaping.
There were no further questions. The Chairman asked if there were any other speakers in favor of the variance.
Mr. Robert Roy, 6075 South Bannock Street, was sworn in for testimony. He is
the owner of the property. He stated that he had built a warehouse in the
area to the west and complied with the Landscape Ordinance. He said that South
Santa Fe Drive is a different case. He has replaced asphalt and curbing on

He said even power poles
The Chairman asked if there were any other speakers.
Mr. Roger Strain, 2316 East 12th Avenue In Denver, was sworn in for testimony.
He said that he is the contractor for the sign. He described the signs which
would be legal at this location and noted that the sign permit has been held
up by the landscaping requirement. He said there would be no benefit to the
eornmunity if parking is decreased on this property because Santa Fe is a fast
street which is being destroyed by trucks.
There were no further questions. There were no further speakers in favor of or in opposition to the variance.
The Chairman incorporated the Staff Report into the record and asked if the
staff had any further comments. Mrs. Romans stated that the landscaping doesn't
have to be at property line. It could be closer to the building. She said there
are several alternatives to landscaping in close proximity to the street. She
suggested a compromise might be possible.
Mr. Roy added that there are 50 parking places in front and along the sides.
He said to lose everything from the building back would be detrimental
to the pro perty. The Traffic Departm~nt wants to avoid parking along
the street. Mr. Gage asked if there is separation between the spa
business and the restaurant. Mr .·Roy said that there are two curbs, but trucks still drive over them.
There was no further testimony presented. The public hearing was closed.
The Board discussed the matter briefly and recessed for ten minutes. They
reconvened at 9:55p.m., with the same persons present.
The Chairman asked if Mr. Prideaux would accept a compromise to require 1400
square feet of landscaping, all of which must be in front of the back building
line. Mr. Prideaux expressed his willingness to compromise, saying he wants
to proceed with his business. It was agreed that he would work with the Staff
to negotiate the kind and location of the landscaping.

Mr. Brown voted "yes" b ecause there was a hardship, and there was no opposition.
The business will be an improvement to the area.
Mr. Gage voted "yes", saying there was a hardship, and concurring with the other
members.
Ms. Lighthall voted "yes" because there is a hardship and the appearance of
the neighborhood will be further improved . Mr. Prideaux is the first business
owner to come in under the new Ordinance, and may need some aid.
Mr. Fish said there is a hardship, the applicant met all the conditions, and
he voted "yes".
When the votes were displayed, all six members had voted in favo r of the
variance. The Chairman stated the variance was granted, and instructed the
applicant to apply for all necessary permits.

The Chairman opened the public hearing on Case #31-85. He stated that the Board
is authorized to grant or deny a variance by Part III, Section 60 of the Engle-
wood City Charter . He stated that he had proof of publication and posting of
the property, and asked that the staff identify the request.
Mrs. Rothweiler stated the applicant was requesting permission to divide the
subject property at 47 09 South Galapago Street, which is 13,837.50 square
feet in area, into two properties, one of 6,250 square feet and one of 7,587.50
square feet, in the R-1-A, Single-Family Residence Distric t. The minimum lot
size in the R-1-A District is 9,000 square feet. This is a variance from the
Comprehensive Zoning Ordinance, Section 16.4-2 c (1), Minimum Lot Size.
The Chairman asked that the applicant come forward for testimony. Johna Stacy,
3900 South Sherman Street, was sworn in for testimony. She stated that the
property at 4709 South Galapago Street is large for the area . She stated
there is a shortage of lots in Englewood. She said that much of the lot is
vacant, and the lot is easily divided. On the west side of the street eight
houses are on 50 foot lots. There are 23 additional houses on 50 foot lots
nearby. Allowing the division of this lot would not damage or change the
area, but would enhance the value of the property. She stated that she is a
real estate agent representing the family that owns the property. They
expect to sell the property. She said the existing house has only one
bedroom and is not very valuable. She submitted six pictures of the lot.
After some discussion, the Chairman asked if there were any other speakers
either for or against the request. There were none.
The Chairman asked that the Staff Report be made a part of the record, and
asked if the staff had any further comments to make.
Mrs. Romans stated that the staff is of the opinion that the R-1-A zoning
is not proper in the area between Elati and Huron in the 4700 block and the
staff has recommended to the Planning Commission that this area be rezoned
R-1-C if this were accomplished. This request would create lots conforming
to that designation.
BOARD MEMBER LIGHTHALL MOVED THAT THE APPLICANT BE GRANTED A VARIANCE TO
PERMIT THE DIVISION OF THE PROPERTY AT 4709 SOUTH GALAPAGO STREET, WHICH IS

Board Member Gage seconded the motion.
The members locked in their votes, and gave their findings as follows:
Mr. Seymour voted "yes", saying there were no objections, and the lots would
be in keeping with the neighborhood.
Mr. Hallagin stated that the area would be improved; and the applicant met the five
conditions necessary to grant a variance. He added that Englewood needs new
houses.
Mr. Brown voted "yes" because this will benefit the area, and he concurred
with the other members.
Mr. Gage said he voted "yes" because the applicant met the five conditions.
Ms. Lighthall voted "yes" because the division would create lots in keeping
with the neighborhood, and the applicant met the five conditions.
Mr. Fish concurred, saying that the division wi ll n o t be a detriment to the
Ordinance or to the neighborhood.
There were six votes in favor of grantin the v arianc . Th Ch a irman ruled

The Chairman opened the public hearing on Case #32 -5 . H s aid the Board is
authorized to grant or deny a variance by Part Ill , S ction 60 of the Englewood
City Charter. He said that he had proof of po st i n a n d pub lic ation, and asked
that the staff identify the request.
Mrs. Romans stated the applicant is requesting a varianc e t o permit the
retention of a fence which has been installed at 2194 'West Harvard Aveuue,
which is higher than 42 inches, the maximum fence height allowed in front of
the building line in the R-2-C, Medium-Density Residence District. This is a
variance from the Comprehensive Zoning Ordinanc e, Sec tion 16.4-17 c (1),
Fences and Retaining 'Walls.
The Chairman asked that the applicant c ome forward for testimony . Robert Gan c e,
1865 South Bryant, was sworn in for testimony. He submitted pictures of the
house and fen c e and a letter of approval from a neighbor. He said he replaced
an old 4 2-inch fen c e in back which was chainlink with the current wood fence.
It is six feet high in the back. He filled out an application for a permit and
drew in what h e intended to do on the bac k of the paper. He sent his son-in-
law to obtain the permit, and apparently the City did n o t see the plans on the
bac k of the permit. He s a id he put in the fence the way he thought was permitted.
He said he needs the fen c e for protec tion of the property from the neighborhood
children. He said the fen c e upgrades the community. He said he had not asked
for a fina l insp ec tion o f the fence because the fen c e was not finished .

Mr. Gance stated that when peo ple visit the horne, they like the fen ce. He
said that, although the Staff Report states that t he stockade look o f the
property is not compatible with the neighborhoo d, the Fence Ordinance permi ts
any kind of fence in the front yard. Shrubs s omet i mes overpower the sid ewalks
a nd are higher than 52 inc hes. He sugg ested that the City give e a c h a pp l i cant
for a permit a copy of the Ordinance whic h a p pl ies.
Mr. Hallagin noted that someone had written 4 2 inches on t he pe rmit ap plication
as the maximum height permitted for fences in the f ront yard.
Ms. Lighthall said that if shrubs encroach on the sidewalk, Mr. Gance should
notify Code Enforcement, as she has done in the past.
Mr. Brown said the issue is the height of the fen c e in f ront o f the front buil d ing
line. Six feet in back and along the sides is permitted. Mr. Gance said that
the fence would have to be taken down to c ut the slats at the bottom if he i s
required to meet the 42 inch limit.
The Charirnan asked if there were any further speakers.
Torn Bissonnette, 2194 West Harvard Av e nue wa s sworn in f or testimony. He pick ed
up the permit f or the fence. On the bac k of the a ppl icatio n there wa s a drawi ng

Director's Choice.
Mrs. Romans asked the Board for suggestions for the Annual Meeting. Hr.
Seymour suggested that, because of the City's budget problems, the Board should
consider not having a dinner meeting this year unless they hold the meeting as
a potluck. He invited the Board to his house.
It was also suggested that if the other boards and commissions had a Christmas
party that the Board might as well do so also. The staff was asked to check
to see what other boards and commissions are doing and to report to the members
in order that they might make a decision.
There was no Board's Choice.

V. DESIGN REVIEW.
Mrs. Rothweiler presented a review of other communities' design review systems.
She stated that none of the cities contacted had tried citizen committees;
instead they utilize a staff technical review process. The review is not for
standards of design, but for engineering and structural requirements and the
staff may offer suggestions for design. This is handled inter-departmentally.

departments. Developers
Service has staff members
Lakewood has a group
Mrs. Romans described the process in Englewood, stating that the Planning
Division or Building Division sends requests to the other departments for
comments about a proposed development. Maps and other necessary information
are enclosed. A deadline is given for comments to be returned. One of
the problems is that a department may return the packet, stating there is
no comment; and at a later date, they realize there should have been requirements
made or changes in the plan; and they then impose that condition on the
applicant. This usually causes extra expense, and may even terminate the
project.
Peter Vargas, Assistant City Manager and Act ing Director of Community Develop-
ment, has requested representatives of all departments to meet regularly as
a Technical Review Committee to review the Board and Commission cases.
The Commission emphasized its opposition to reviews based on appearance, but
urged the implementation of the Staff Technical Review Committee so that the
Commission will have a better idea of what will be entailed in developments.
The Commission stated that they would like to have detailed traf fic studies
in all Planned Development requests and a better knowledge of what the Fire
Department will require of any proposed developme nt. They emphasized that,
because the population is inc reasing, and la r ge developments are being
considered; the impact of these developments on the community should be made
clear to them at the time of the first Planning Commission hearing .
Mrs. Romans and Ms. King stated that they are requiring applicants to provide
complete information before they go to the Planning Commission, in order to
reduce the number of conditions which have been necessary to be attached in
several cases.
Mr. Allen stated that, while he disagrees with a Review Board, it would
be helpful to developers to have all the City Departments finalize all
plans and requirements before construc tion begins.
Mr. Carson asked if the Traffic Engineer is studying the traffic problem in
Englewo od. Mrs. Romans said a traffic study has been made of the downtown
area and Highway 285. Mr. Carson recommended that a traffic study for the
whole City be undertaken.
The Commiss ion recommended the implementation of the Technical Review
Committee and supported the staf f 's new policy that plans will not be
scheduled for Board or Commission consideration until all of the information
is provided .

VI. PUBLIC FORUM.
There was no public present.
VII. DIRECTOR'S CHOICE.
Mrs. Romans stated that City Council has appointed Steven C. Mulhern to
replace Mr. McBrayer on the Planning Commission. She said that the ~~rks
project was approved by City Council, and the Hetzel case will be referred
to the City Council at the next meeting.
VIII. COMMISSION'S CHOICE.
Mr. Gourdin stated that the City should become more progressive environmentally,
especially in areas of air pollution, noise and odors. He said the Planning
Commission can aid in an awareness of these problems.
Mr. Mesa asked about the new car lot at Oxford and Broadway. Ms. King stated
that the owner, Greg Thompson, purchased the property in September before
the B-2 section of the Ordinance was amended. He owns another lot, the
Classic Car Company, at 4528 South Broadway. He already had a sales tax
license, and he is not remodeling the building, so it was not necessary for
him to obtain a building permit. He will provide 1250 square feet of landscaping
and six trees, which meets the requirement of the Landscape Ordinance.
Mr. Carson stated that car repairs are being made on the property and that
was not permitted even under the old Ordinance. Ms. King said she would
investigate.
Mr. Gourdin asked about Elliot's Car Repair. ~Irs. Romans said that that had
been permitted by the Commission as a "Use Not Mentioned". She said that the
Zoning Officer is checking all of the old "Uses Not Mentioned" and "Conditional
Use" cases to make sure that conditions attached were fulfilled.
Mr. Stoel noted that a 7-11 in Aurora recently added a small amount of
landscaping, and the appearance of the lot was greatly improved.
Mr. Allen noted that the Council has promised to devote $10,000 to the Trash
Study, and the study should begin after the first of the year.
Mrs. Romans asked for clarification about the Design Review process, and asked
if the Commission wanted more information. Mr. Stoel said the Commission
would like to see the inter-departmental cooperation and an internal Technical
Review Committee rather than consider a Design Review Ordinance at this time.
Mrs. Romans asked that the Commission review the material given to them by
Mrs. Rothweiler, and return it in order that it can be placed in the Planning
Library. She said that Mr. Tidwell would like to have back the books submitted
as exhibits at his hearing.
The meeting adjourned at 8:10 p.m.

Pros and Cons
The enactment of this am~ndm~nt would allow the police d•partment to
r~move more of the5e dang~rous special weapons from the poss•ssion of
individuals carrying them. This will hopefully result in the
reduct i on and prevention of personal injury that results in
confron tations in which these items are present, and would further
allow fo r the prosecution of individuals who possess and utilized
them.

INITIATED BY Director of Public Works
Property Transfer at Bi-City
SUBJECT Wastewater Treatment Plant
{
ACT I ON PROPOSED Approval of bill f o r ordinance to deed 10-foot strip of land
at Bi-City WWTP to Lillard & Clark
BACKGROUND
During the initial phase of the Bi-City Plant construction, there
were many properties purchased for the proposed construction.
one such property was landlocked except for a ten-toot right-or-
way to South Santa Fe Drive. These properitea are now amassed
into one large parcel, with Littleton owning a one-half interest,
and there is no need for this ten-toot strip.
DISCUSSION
Recently, we were contacted by Lillard and Clark Construction
company, which owns the ground adjacent, wanting to acquire the
ten-toot strip. Lillard and Clark is willing to pay $3,500 for
the strip.
The proposal was taken to the Bi-City Supervisory Committee (copy
of minutes attached). Their recommendation was to sell the strip
since it is of no use to the Bi-City plant.
Littleton and Englewood will both need to prepare ordinances for
quit-claim deeds.
RECOMMENDATION
we recommend that an ordinance be drawn authorizing the Mayor's
signature on a quit-claia deed to Lillard and Clark tor the
ten-foot strip, in consideration of the $3,500.

INITIATED BY Department of Co!IJ!!Iu n i ty Development
ACTION PROPOSED Con s ide r two applications for CDBG funds under the Small Cities
P rogram admj n j stergd by the Co l orado Department of L9cal Affairs fo r Fiscal Year 1986
INTRODUCTION AND BACKGROUND
Th e Federal Program: The Small Cit~es Program provides grants t o un its of local Govern-
ment in both metropolitan and non-metropolitan areas to meet housing and comm unity
development needs . The p rimary object ive of the Small Cities Prog ram is :
1 ) The development of viable communitie s by p roviding decent housing and a suitable
living environment; and
2) Expanding economic opportunities , p rincipally for persons o f low-and moderate-
income .
The objective o f the Small Ci ties Program i s a c hieved through a plan , or program ,
deve loped by the l ocal government whi c h is de s i g ned to give maximum priority to those
act i vities whic h will benefit low and mod e ra te i ncome families o r wh ich will aid in the
p revention or elimination of slum or blight . The request for funds may also include
activities which are designed to meet other urgent development needs in the community
which pose a "serious " and immediate threat to the health or wel f are of the community
if other financial r esou r ces are not available .
Th e choice of activities is a determination whi ch has to be made by the local gove rn-
ment as to which will best serve the objective s of the program .
Funds , which are appropriated annually by the Congress for this program , are allocated
by statutory formula to each State . The maximum grant amounts set by the State fo r a
S~ng le -Purpose Project -$500,000, for a Mul i-Purpose Project -$1 ,000 ,000 and for a
Multi-Jurisdictional Project -$1 ,000 ,000 , although the actual grants awarded in fiscal
year 1985 were considerably smaller than th maximums .
To compete in the Small Cities Program , the local government must submi t a n app l ication
Since the program is competitive and the demand for grants usually far exceeds the
avai lable funds , the State will eva luate the applications on three ma jor factors:
Pt·ojec t impact , p ublic and private commitments and management c a pabi lity . Final
1 fun ding de c is ions on all applications will be made by the Execu t ive Direc tor of the ~ s ate Depa rtm ent of Local Affairs based on recommendations of the State CD BG Ad visor y
Co mmittee .

The Local Program: For FY86, two multi-purpose CDBG applications are being p roposed. In
the first application, funus are being requested to support the City's continuing Housing
Reh abilitation Project which the City Council initiated in 1975 and to cover the cost of
mod ifying the Simon Center parking lot due to the EURA and the City's Floyd Street Realign-
ment projec t. The second proposed application is being made by the city on behalf of
WHE RE, Inc. to fund a Mobile Home Community Improvement Proj~ct for the Royal, Round-Up and
Oas is North mobile home parks along South Santa Fe Drive in Englewood.
In the City 's own multi-purpose CDBG application, funds are being requested in the follow-
ing amounts: $450,000 for housing rehabilitation of 45 homes throughout the City; $30,000
f or the Simon Center parking lot modification project; and, $50 ,000 for the administration
of both projects .
In the multi-purpose application being made on behalf -of WHERE, Inc., funds are being
requested in the following amo u nts: S4l ,OOO to transfer 21 mobile homes from a well water
system onto the City 's water system in the Royal Mobile Home Park a transfer whi ch is
supported by the City 's Utilities Dept.; $15,000 fo r a drainage project at the Round-Up
Mobile Ho me Park; and, $147,500 for the r ehabilitation of 59 mobile homes within the Royal,
Round-Up and oasis North Mobile Home Parks .
One of the key fa c tors in receiving funds is the local government's commitment to a project
To prove local c ommitment, staff has budgeted for the City 's Housing Rehabilitation Project
$40 ,000 from the Housing Rehab 1985 PIF Expenditures and $5 0 ,000 from the Rehabilitation
residual receipts (interest earnings on deposits , 1\ loan service fee , etc.). In addition,
