to develop proper ty at 3319 South Clark son i nto six-2 bedroom apartments.
Mr. King stated the concept wa s not permitted under the current zoning.
However, Mr. King asked for spec ial consideration because his plan
a ppeared to be compat ible with other d evel opments in the surrounding
area .
Council Member Neal asked that this topic is on the next study
s es sion agenda.
* * * * * * *
Mayor Otis asked if there were any other visitors at this time
wi shing to speak on any subject.
Gerry Venard, Cha i rman of the Planning and Zoning Commission
came forward. Mr. Ven a rd spoke regard i ng the referendum of trash pick up
proposed to be placed on the ballot for the general municipal election.
Mr. Venard stated it was inappropriate to take the matter to the voters
at this time because they would not understand the issue. Mr. Venard
requested postponment until the Pl a nning and Zoning Commission could
study the matter a nd respond. Mr. Ven ar d stated Mr. George Allen of the
Planning and Zoning Commission wa s chairman of a subcommittee set out to
study the question.
George Allen, 2799 South Downing, came forward. Mr. Allen
related his concerns on this matte r, and also requested time to study the

COUNCIL BILL NO. 54
INTRODUCED BY COUNCIL
MEMBER NEAL
AN ORDINANCE SUBMITTING TO A VOTE OF THE QUALIFIED ELECTORS OF THE CITY
OF ENGLEWOOD AT THE GENERAL MUNICIPAL ELECTION TO BE HELD ON NOVEMBER 5,
1985 A QUESTION REGARDING THE MEANS OF RESIDENTIAL TRASH PICKUP IN THE
CITY.
COUNCIL MEMBER NEAL MOVED TO PASS COUNCIL BILL NO. 54, SERIES OF
1985 , ON FINAL READING. Council Member Bilo seconded the motion.
Council Member Neal stated the question was reasonable to pose
to the citizens. Mr. Neal stated passage would be within the timeframe
for getting the question on the ballot. Mr. Neal stated the real issue
was should there be universal trash pickup or should the City allow
certain people not to contract for their own pickup and create the kinds
of problems Mr. Allen alluded to. If universal trash pickup was decided
upon , Mr. Neal stated the next question would be whether it should be
privately contracted for by the City. Mr. Neal stated he tried to set
the conditions for the City to go ahead if the study found it to b e
effective to contract for pickup services. Mr. Neal stated he trusted
the people to make the wise decision i n 90% of the instances . If the
people's answer was no, he felt there would be plenty of opportunities in
the future for the City Council or the Pl a nning and Zoning Commission to
bring it back to the people.
Council Member Higday admitted there needed to be something done
about the trash problem. He stated the issue would be defeated if placed
on the ballot at this point in time because there had not been adequate
time to study the issue and publish information about it . Mr. Higday was
in favor of giving Planning and Zoning s tudy time. Mr. Higday stated
Council could make the decision on whether a study should be performed
without going to a vote of the citizens. Mr. Higday stated this question
would be confusing.
When asked by Council Member Bilo, City Attorney Olsen stated
the Council could study any issue at any time . As he understood Mr.
Neal's position, the scope of the study would be extensive. Mr. Olsen

stated a Council Member would be within his rights of authority and
responsibility to ask the citizens about it before spending the money.
But, Mr. Olsen stated the question need not be a ballot question.
Council Member Vobejda stated he was in favor of not voting at
this time. Mr. Vobejda wanted to ascertain more facts to get the full
impact of the issue.
Mayor Otis stated in some ways he agreed with Council Member
Neal but Council has agreed to meet with Planning and Zoning sometime
after August 27th on this topic; and therefore, felt the matter should be
postponed until after that meeting.

Daniel De~eice, for Kent Villag Association, Inc., 3395 South Ra ce Street,
was requesting permission to const ruct a cedar fence whi c h would be eight

This is a varia n ce from th e Comprehensive Zo ning Ordinance, Section 16.4-17 c 2,
Fences and Retaining Walls , which sets th e maximum fence height in the side
yard in the R-1-A Zone District at six feet .
The Chairman asked that the applicant come forward for testimony. Daniel J.

Lakewood , was sworn in for testimony. Mr. DeNeice drew a diagram of the area
around 3395 South Ra ce Street, showing the back of the house, the ga r age , the

p r operty 's ba c k ya rd have requested the screen i n g . Mr. DeNei ce said they
would like to have the s c reening . No one else is affected . Mr. Hallagin asked
if a building co uld be built wh ich would accompl ish the same purpose. Mr.
DeNei ce said t hat such a building wo uld h a v e to be very long and very narrow.
The ga ra g e works well fo r th ei r purposes, but during th e day the garage is
open ed while the manager wo rks on the equipment whi c h is used for maintenance .
Ms. Lighthall asked for a description of the fence . Mr. DeNeic e s t ated that
it wo uld be made of 1" by 4 " ceda r b oa rds. Every 40 feet there are 2 ' by 2 '

kept open , a nd those open doo rs sho uld be screened from the neighb ors.
lr. Ferguson a sked wh ere the trash c omes from. Mr. DeNei ce said tha t it is
Kent Village 's trash a nd is picked up three times a week .
Mr . Brown asked why Kent Village doesn't have a place t o store all th e e quipment
on its own property rather than i n a n R-1-A zo ne dis tric t. The R-1-A districts
in Englewood have always been protec ted. Mr. DeNei ce s a id th a t 3395 South
Race is own ed by the Association. Mr. Brown asked why the storage couldn 't be
put in the R-3 area which is commo nly known a s Kent Village instead of in the R-1-A zone district .
Mr. Fish asked what kinds of equipment are being stored in the ga r age.
~lr. DeNeice said that during the day the garage is open . There are lawnmowers ,
blow rs, a pickup, the campe r which belongs to the resident manager, and
maintenance equipment such as saws and tools . No equipment is stored along the
fence , but the garage is opened during the day . Golf carts which are used in
th Village are also stored there .
Mr. Gage asked if the houses which look onto the garage are in a two-story building.
Mr. DeNeice said that it is a one-s t ory building, but because of the ground
elevation , the building is hig her than a single-s t ory would normally be.
~Is. Lighthall asked why the ga r age couldn't be kept closed during the day, and
said that the trash is not visible if the ga te is closed .
Mr. OeNeice said the t ras 11 goes over the top of the contain rs o n th mornings
of lrash collection. Mr. Seymour said that trash from the R-3 area should not
b collected and stored in a n R-1-A area. Mr. Fish asked about the bricks

s tored there. Mr. DeNeice said that they are there temp o rarily for repair.
Mr. Fish asked Mrs. Romans why a business operation is being run o ut o f a home . ~Irs. Romans said there are no business es o r home occupations permitted in the
R-1-A zone districts. She did not know if Code Enforcement h ad add r e ssed the
issue , but thought it may be their impression that the house is
a residential use rather than a commerc ial use. Mr. Fish said i t is c lea rly
being used as a mainten ance facility f o r Kent Village. Based on the testimony of Mr. DeNeice, Mrs. Romans agreed .
There were no further speakers in favor of o r agains t this request, a nd th e
applicant stated tha t he did n o t wish t o ma k e any fu rther statements. The
Chairman incorporated the Staff Report i nto the Record, a nd asked if the Staff had a nythin ~ furthe r t o add .
Mrs . Romans said that th e St aff 's primary concern is the misuse of t h e most
restrictive z0n~ olistrict , the R-1-A, a s a maintenance faci lity in co nne ct i o n
with the R-3 zo ne district . This should not be permitted .
The Chairman c losed the Public He a ring fo r Case No . 9-85 .

Board Member Gage second ed t h e mo t ion.
The members locked in th ei r vo tes, a nd before the vo tes we r e displayed, the
members gave their fi ndin gs as follows:
Mr. S ymour stated that he vo t ed aga inst the v ariance because the use of the
property should be residen t ial and th e varia n ce wou ld no t meet the five conditions necessary to g r a nt a variance .
Mr. Hallagin voted "no" because the a p plicant did no t mee t the condi tions, a nd
the residential area should not be us ed for dumping and storage.
Mr. Br own said h e voted "no " because the five conditions were not met, and he
wants to protect the R-1-A single-family residential district.
Mr. Gage voted "no" because the conditions were no t met and the R-1-A a reas should be protected.
Is. Lighthall voted "y s " because a fence wouldn't disturb anyone, and granting this would not be setting a precedent.
Mr . Ferguson voted "no" because the five co nditio ns wer e not met. If the Board
g ranted this variance, it would be co ndoning using a residential district for a business purpose.
Mr. Fish sald there was not unique hardship and n o ne of th e five conditions were met.

Mr. Seymour said he vo t ed in favor of the variance, as long as ther e is no
building on the utility easemen t .
Mr. Hallagin voted "yes" because the applicant met the required five condi tio ns,

Mr. Robert Pitler was asked to address the Board and to explain th reason
the extension of Lime would be necessary. Mr. Pitler said that b caus they
had wanted good planning, and because the historical building is a sp rial
1s , there hav been long planning sessions with the architect and the
City Departments. The electrical plan was only approved on June 2, 1985.
!r. Ferguson asked whether the Building Department would make th final
decision on time limits, o r if it were the Board's responsibility. Mrs.
Romans sa id that except in the case of acts of God that would delay the
construction or planting, the responsibility would be the Board's. Mr.
PI ler said they had made a conscientious effor t to meet the ne ds of both
safety and beauty. Th building has been paint d a softer color in response

of the First Phase of the ~~r ~eting Study.
Bill Veio summarized his presentation from the previous meeting and went on to
state that the redevelopment potential for this study area · will include keeping
the sales tax and employer base and ultimately show what is the best use for
the land.
He noted that this study area has several areas that could be included in any
redevelopment plan:
1. More parks, open spaces, and green area.

pening.
4. More restaurants in the area.

Mrs. Romans wn s asked to explain th e r easons fo r the proposed am endments. She
stated that 16.2-8 b (1) (c) was inadve rt ently omitted durin g the various
typings of the Ordinance; and when there was a requ es t for a varian ce from the
Si gn Co de, it was discovered th at the four conditi o ns n ecessa r y fo r gran ting
a va rian c e fro m th e Sign Code were no l o n ger in th Or d inance. This
amendme nt will resto re the cond iti on s t o the Ordi nance .
In reviewing Section 16.3, staff rea lized that no pro cedure for amendin g the
Ord inance was includ ed in the text . The amendm ents t o Section 16.4-17 wer e
proposed b y the Commission concerning Fences and Retaining Walls.
The proposed ame ndm en ts to Section 16.4-18, La nds cape Ordinance , nr e in
acco rd a nce with prev ious discussions by th Commission a nd for cla rifi ca tion .
The r egula tions would apply in all zone districts whenev er there is a change
of use or any new development. Because of difficulties encountered in
determining how e x tensive remodelling is, th burd en would be changed fr om the
City t o the applicant t o give the valuatio n f the remodelling . It woul d
further require the valuation to be based only on bu ilding s and i mp r ove me nts,
r a ther than including the value of the land. Th e formu la supplied by
Arapah oe Co unty would be applied to a submitted value t o determine the
accuracy of the valuation; and the City could accept estimates from broke rs,
insuran c e reco rds, and the Assesso r's reco rds.
In addition, 16.4-18 d (1) (b) would amend the section of the Landscape
Ordinance concerning the granting of a Temporary Certificate of Occupancy to
permit landscaping to be installed at a later date, during a more suitable
plantin g season. The amendment would include provision for an Instrument of
Se c urity of 200% of the estimated value of the landscaping to b e submitted to
the City prior to the issuance of the Temp o rary Certificate of Occupancy. There
was some discussion by the Commission of this provision. Mr. Allen st at ed that
placing a lien which would b e supe rio r to all other liens and encumbrances with
the permission of the other debtors would be almost impossible. Mrs. Romans
stated that this was offered as an op tion; there are other methods of providing
secu rity. She stated that this met h nd has worked for the City in other areas
of enforcement, and the amendment wa s prepared b y the Attorney's Office. Mr.
Vargas said that the purpose of these provisions is to give the property owner
an inc entive t o lands c ape.
Mr. Stoel objected to the provision which requires 200% of the value of the
lands caping improvements to be reserved. Mrs. Romans said that this amount
is similar to the requirements of other cities in the area. Mrs. Romans
stated that there is always the option of putting in the landscaping , and this
provision seeme d a lesser evil than forcing the owner to vaca te an occupied
build ing because the landscaping has not been installed.
Mrs. Romans said that th e next proposed amendment, Section 16.18 d (2) (e) (1),
was in response to the Planning Co mm ission's motion that 50% of the landscaping
be r e quired t o b e installed in the front portion of a building site for
comme r cial and industrial zone districts. Because it may be difficult to
determine what the "fron t portion of a building site" is, the staff suggested
the wo rdin g b e changed t o "between the street line and the front building line."
Dis c ussio n followe d, and the Commi ssion requ es ted that the wording be changed
t o "b etween the street l i ne and the front setback line", or "in front of t he
exis ting building."
Mrs. Romans said th at Coun c ilman Vobejda pointed out tha t it is diffic ult
to understand the section of the Landscape Ordinance whi ch requires on street
tree for each f o rty feet of frontage. She said that the Planning Office h as

Mrs. Romans, in respo ns e t o a qu es ti on from Mr. Gourdin, stat ed that th e r e
will be a Landscape Br ochure which contains sugg estions for trees that grow
we ll in our area, identifies drou ght-resistant plants, and lists diffi c ult
or undesirable trees. The Denv r Water Board on West 12th Av e nue h a s a
model xeroscape display, and the Board publishes a pamphlet des c ribing low-
maintenan c e plants. The En g lewoo d brochure will be similar. Mrs . Rom a ns
stated that the amendment pro vided for the Sign Co d e in Se c tion 16.4-19-3 a
provides for prohibited sig ns which are ere c ted after the effective date o f
the Sign Code. Prohibited signs erected after the date of the Ordinan ce
and h aza rd o us signs would b e required to be removed within five days of Notice.
Mrs. Romans stated that these amendments are the l a st of the changes to the
Ordinance of which the staff is aware . Mr . Venard said the changes had been
discussed with him, and he had agreed that the Public Hearing should be held
as soon as possible .
v. CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PR OG RAM.
Mr. Venard called for discussion on the 1986/1990 Capital Improvement pro jec t s .
Mr. Gourdin said that Highway 2 85 by Cinderella City is in disrepair and asked
wh o se responsibility it is to maintain the surface. Mr. Vargas said that this
is a State Highway, and he would find out what the schedule for repair is.
Mr. Venard reminded the Commission that there would be little money available
immediately for Capital Improvements. Mr. Vargas said that some improvements
may be made with funds from the budg et. Mr . Venard said the purpose of the
Program is to bring desirable projects t o the attention of the City Council
and City Manager.
Mr. Allen suggested that the most important improvement needed in Englewoo d
is trash removal and disposal. He said that he met durin g the previous week
with Mayor Otis to make recommendations on this matter . Mr. Allen had contacted
DRCOG and the City of Denver, and found no studies or programs in progress.
Mr. Carson suggested forwarding all the projects which were mentioned in the
Memorandum to the Planning Commission from Mrs. Romans to the City Manager.
These are:
1. The trash collection and conversion program.
2 . Th e Parks and Re creation Department's request for a nature cent e r ,
po ssibly at Belleview Park.
3. The new City Hall and the possibility of moving the Court facilities
to the Police/Fire Center.

Mr. Venard stated that he has in hand a copy of the published Notice of
Hearing, which was published in the Englewood Sentinel on July 3, 1985 .
Mr. Venard asked Mrs. Romans, Assistant Director of Community Development,
to review the proposed amendments to the Comprehensive Zoning Ordinance.
Mrs. Romans stated that the proposed amendments have come about through
proposals of the Planning Commission, City Council, and staff. Mrs. Romans
stated that §16.2, Administration of the Ordinance, is to be amended by
reinserting specific conditions for consideration by the Board of Adjust-
ment and Appeals in reviewing requests for a variance to the Sign Code.
These provisions were inadvert ently omitted from the Comprehensive Zoning
Ordinan ce during the process of rewriting and editing.
Section 16.3 , Procedures for Initial Zoning of Property, Rezoning, a n d
Changes and Amendments t o th e Ordinance, is to be amended to include guide-
lines to be followed for changing the text of the Comprehensive Zoning Ordinance .
Section 16.4-17, Fences and Re taining Walls, is to be amended to prohibit
any fences along the street side of properties in the B-1 and B-2 Business
Districts. The proposed amendment would permit masonry walls no higher
than 30 inches along the street sides of properties, and walls or fences
no more than six feet in height would be allowed on the rear and interior
side yards. This proposed provision has been previously discussed by the Commission in depth.
Mr. Carson asked if there is a grandfather clause on this provision.
Mrs. Romans stated that the proposal would not apply t o busin esses with
existing fences along the street sides of the property. The provision
would apply only to businesses installing new fences.
Mr. Venard suggested the possibility of making the provisions applicable
if a business changes ownership. Mrs. Romans stated that as the provisions
are presently written, it would not apply , but would apply only to new
fences that are installed. Maintenance provisions on fencing would apply.
Section 16.4-18, Landscaping Ordinance , is proposed to be amended in
several areas. There have been problems in determining the value of
"property", which is the criteria c ited in the ordinance; it is suggested
that this be changed to stat e: " ... which remodeling cost is equal to or
exceeds 50 % of the estimated value of the PRINCIPAL BUILDING AS SUBSTANTIATED
BY EVIDENCE SUBMITTED TO THE DIRECTOR. FOR PURPOSES OF THIS SECTION , RE-
MODELING COST SHALL BE EQUAL TO THE SUM OF ALL PERMIT VALUATIONS OF WORK."
This would remove the burden of determining the value of the "property"
from the staff, and would place the value on the improvement, not on the
land, with the burden to provide the valuation on the property owner/busi-
nessman. The valuation of the building would include electrical, plumbing,
and mechanical improvements, in addition to the structural improvements.
Issuance of a Temporary Certificat of Occupancy for a com pleted building,
but incompleted landscaping, is an area with which the staff has expe rienced
problems. Once a Temporary Certificate of Occupancy is issued, this seems
to alleviate the "incentive" to comp lete the landscaping at the next
planting season or before. It ls proposed that a security instrument
be required to be posted to cover the cost of th landscaping, and if
the property owner does not comply with the required landscaping provisions,
the City would then do so, u ing the instrument of security .

The Planning Commission has suggested that 50% of the landscaping that
i s required for the total site , be r e quired in the f r ont portion of the
building site fo r commercial and industrial districts. Staff suggests
th e following wording: "Minimum of 10% of total lot a rea SHALL be land-
scaped, AND NOT LESS THAN 50% OF THE LANDSCAPING SHALL BE INSTALLED BE-
TWEEN THE STREET LINE AND THE FRONT BUILDING SETBACK LINE, OR IN FRONT OF THE EXISTING BUILDING."
Mr. Allen questio n ed the provision contained in §16.4-18 d (1) (b) (3),
which states that a lien on the property by th e City would be superior
t o all other liens. He asked if this would supercede a lien placed by
a mortgage c ompany or a bank. He asked if the City Attorney has checked
into this provision. Mr . Olsen stated that a gove rnmental agency does
have the power t o assume th e first rig ht of lien on any prope rty, but
this wo uld be a decision t o be made by the City Council. The City does
have the police power t o declare previous liens null and void if this
is the determination o f th e legislative body . Mr. Alle n asked if Mr.
Olsen could give case his t o ries establishing this po wer for governmental agencies.
Mrs. Romans stated that there is an additional amendment that she would
like t o propose, at the suggestion of Co uncilman Vobejda , that pertaining
t o the number of street tree s required per the fron tage o f a lot. Mrs.
Romans stated that the suggested wording is : "IF , WHEN THE TOTAL STREET
FRONTAGE IS DIVIDED BY 40 FEET, AND THERE IS A REMAINDER OF 20 FEET OR
MORE, AN ADD ITIONAL STREET TREE IS REQUIRED ." This would be included
as §16.4-18 c (2) (a), (b), (c), .and (e).
Section 16.4-19, Sign Code , is p r oposed to be ame nd ed in several section s ,
also. Staff has expe rienced problems with e nfo r cing the rem oval of pro-
hibited signs whi ch we r e e re cted after the Sign Code went into effect.
At the present time, prohibited sign owners a re give n 180 days to r emove
th e sign following r eceipt of no tice ; however, if the sign was e rected
after the Sign Code went into effect , thi did not seem to be prope r,
and th e Code Enforcement perso nnel has as ked that the removal time f o r
such signs be limited to five days following receip t o f the notice to remove.
Hazardous sign removal is also proposed to occu r within five days of
r eceipt of notice rather than the exi ting 10-day removal time.
Mr. Carson asked if the five day perio d would be working day or calendar
day. Discussion ensued . Mrs. Romans suggested that the words "c alendar
days" be added to the provi ion on removal of the signs.
Mr. Venard asked if there were members of the audience who wished to ad-
dress the Commission on the amendments proposed to the Comprehensive
Zoning Ordinance. No member of the audienc spoke .
Carson moved:
McBrayer seconded: The Public Hearing o n Case #15-85 be closed.

The Commission memb ers r eviewed th e propos e d amendments t o th e Comp reh e n-
sive Zoning Ordin a nce . Sec tion 16.2 , Administration of the Ordinance,
was approved as written in the staff report. Section 16.3, P rocedure
f o r Initial Zon ing of Prope r ty, Rezoning, and Ch anges and Amendments to
the Ordinance, was approved as writt en in the staff report.
Section 16.4-17, Fe nces and Retaining Walls was con sidered . Mr. Ca rson
asked how the Comm ission members f elt about writing in a provision that
when a business o r property chan ges own ers , they must co mply with the
fencing provisions . Discussion ens ued. Mr. McBrayer sugges ted that it
could be an undue hardship in selling the property if a prospective pur-
chaser was aware that fencing would have to be removed or replaced, or
that a sign would have to be c hanged o r replaced upon co mpletion o f the
purchase. This would particularly a pply t o r eplacement of retaining walls.
Mr. Allen stated that he f e lt r e placeme nt o f a sign is quite different from replacement of a r et aining wall.
There were no changes to §16 .4-17, Fences a n d Retaining Walls.
Section 16.4-18, Lands cape Or dinance , was con sidered. The formula to
be used to determine the value of the structural improvements was dis-
cussed. Section 16.18 d (2) e (1) was amended t o stat e : "Minimum o f
10% of total lot area m~st SHALL be landscaped, AND NOT LESS THAN SO %
OF THE LANDSCAPING SHALL BE INSTALLED BETWEEN THE STREET LINE AND THE
FRONT BUILDING SETBACK LINE , OR IN FRO NT OF TilE EXISTING BUILDING."
Section 16.4-18, Landscaping Ordinance , is also amended by adding th e
statement: "WH EN THE TOTAL STREET FRONTAG E IS DIVIDED BY 40 FEET, AND
THERE IS A REMAI NDER OF 20 FEET OR MORE, AN ADDITIONAL STREET TREE IS
REQUIRED"; this stateme nt shall be added by §16 .4-18 c (2) (a), (b), (c) and {e).
Section 16.4-19 , Sign Code wa s consid ered. The Commi ss ion asked that
a typographical e rro r be corrected, substituting "Mail" for "Main" in
§16.4-10-14 a, and added the word "CALENDAR" to: " ... r e move d within
five (S) CALENDAR days of r eceipt " in Sec tion 16 .419-14 on bo th Prohibited and Hazardous Signs .

V. COMPREHENSIVE ZONING ORDINANCE
Sat ellite Dishes CASE 1119-85
Mrs . Romans introduced Mary Alice Rothweiler, Planner I in the Department
of Community Dev elopmen t, to the members of the Commission. Mrs. Rothweiler
has researched the issue of Satellite Dishes, and prepared the report and
proposed regulations before the Commission this evening.
Mrs . Rothweiler introduced Charlie Ergen, president of Echosphere Corpora-
tion. Mrs. Rothweiler reviewed the background information she has col-
lected on satellite dishes. Mrs . Rothweiler stated that she discussed
this issue with three or four dealers who insta ll satellite dishes, and
also talked to staff persons in other comm unities t o determine what they
are doing in regard to satellite dish installations. I n response to a
question from Mr . Beier, Mrs. Rothweiler stated that Aurora has passed
an ordinance governing the installation of satellit e dishes; Westminster
is in th e process of adopting regulations for satelli t e dishes, and
Arvada is looking into the possibili ty of adoptin g r egulations on satellite
dishes. Lakewood i n ot doing anything about the satellite dish installa-
tion issue at this point in time.

Mrs. Rothweiler pointed o ut that t h e FCC has pre-empted local zoning for
satellite r eceive-only e arth statio n antennas, and has determin e d that
local co mmunit ies ma y control d i sh an tenna zoning only as it perta ins to
health, saf e ty, o r a es thetic obj e c tives .
Mr. Erge n sugge ste d that the Co mmissi on might want to avoid restricting
satellite dish installatio ns t o a specific number per block. He pointed
out that restric tions on the sate llit e dish installations vary around
the nation, with the western part o f the U. S. less restrictive than the
eastern part of the country. Mr. Ergen pointed out that with the satellite
dish installation, a homeowner could receive over 100 channels on TV;
there could be s ome c hannels that would be "scrambled", but a decoder
can be purchased. He po inted o ut that in a metropolitan area with a
good cable system, there may not be that much interest in the satellite
dishes, and that h e s e lls 90 % of his s y stem to users in rural areas. He
noted that satellite dishe s impro ve r e c e ption in mountain communities
where rec e iption of regular chann e ls and cable is poor.
Mr. Carson stated that h e has a satellite dish, and receives 158 channels;
he purchased his dish b ecaus e he was dissatisfied with the service provided
by cable. He ask ed wh a t co l or dis h an d what type dish gives the best
reception. Mr. Er gen st ated that a light co l o r dish gives the best
reception, but on e o f the pro blems is that the dish is "manufactured" in
that specific colo r, s o i t is n o t e as y t o c hange or repaint. Mr. Ergen
stated that more me s h or "scr een" ante nnae are being sold than the solid
dishes; the mesh d ish e s do n o t r e fl ect as much heat as the solid dishes,
and people f i nd they c an hav e the m in dark e r c olors.
Mr. Carson asked ab ou t he i ght r e stric tio ns o n the solid antennae. Mr.
Ergen st a t e d tha t if a so lid dish we r e t o b e installed atop a house, he
would recommend that a n Eng in eer's Cert ificat e b e submitted certifying
that th e h ouse a nd r oo f i s s tructu r ally s o und t o support the weight of
th e dish. Mr. Er gen sugges t e d tha t a n En g in eer's Certificate should be
require d f o r bo t h solid and me s h dish i n stal lation ato p a struc ture.
Mr. Er gen sug gested that an ordinance migh t be drafted which wo uld re-
stric t the installatio n of satellite dishes to r ear o r side yards. He
advis ed again t re tricting the iz of the dis h es , n o ting that th e s ize
of di shes in the future will be considerably smaller t h an th ey a r e no w.
Mr. Ergen stated that he would be happy to look at pro po s e d r egulations
and to refer them to legal advi er in Wa hington fo r revi ew pr ior to
the Commission recommendation to Council .
Mr. Venard s u ggested that prior to etting a date for a Publi c He aring ,
he felt the Commission should tudy the issue more t ho r o ughly , and r e view
t h e backgroun d material presented by Mr . Rothweiler and also revi ew th e
p r oposed restr ictions that hav be n prepared. Mr . Ve nard stated that
he wa nted to commend Mrs. Rothweiler for the repo rt she has prepared.
Mr. Mc Braye r discussed problems in c iting atellit e dishes for houses
abutting p r oper ty that has an "alley" hou e if the lo cation is restri c t e d to t he r ear or side yard.
Mr. Mc Br a ye r also disagreed with stating th re is a "carte blan ch e " 25 foo t
height on th e i n stallatio n. He f elt th heigh t s hou l d be in p roportio n t o
t h e height of t he house . Height limitation fo r dish installatio n we r e dis -
cussed . Mr . Ergen stated that if a homeowner has a two-stor y ho u se , t he 25

feet height limitation is a pplicable . Th e pole t o support a 25 f o ot high
dish would h ave to be attached t o the hous e ; it could not b e fr ee-standing.
A typi c al syst e m co uld be on an eight foot pole, which would be sunk in the
earth, and wo uld be above ground approximately three and one-half t o four feet.
Mr. McBrayer asked why the height is listed to the "top of the po le",
and not th e top of the dish if the dish is to be situated o n t o p o f the
pole; this adds additional height. Mrs. Rothweiler stated that a ho me -
owner who may want to c hang e the dish would not be apt to change th e po l e . Discussion e nsued.
Mr. Ergen stated that he felt the Commission could put restrictio n o n
free-standing poles that would bring the height into relation t o th e h e ight of th e structure on the site .
Mr. McBrayer stat ed that discussion has been on dishes with 10 f oo t dia-
me ter, y et th e pro pose d r e striction of (2)(v) is a dish ove r 36 in c hes in
diameter shal l n o t b e mo unted on the roof of a residential structure. ~lr .
Ergen stated that i n t o day 's technology, nothing at the 36" siz e wil l pro-
vide much o f a picture ; this is aimed for future dish size s. Mr . Mc Brayer
que stioned if this p r o v i s io n is useless today, why it is b e ing inc lude d .
Mr. Beier pointe d o ut t hat consideratio n will h av e t o b e give n t o t h e
problems caus e d by o ve r head tele phon e a nd e lectri c al l i n es , a s we l l as lines in th e a lle ys.
Mrs. Rothweiler stat e d that in discussing this with the Buildin g and
Safety division, the Chi e f Building Inspe cto r had indicat e d h e wo uld pre-
fer that no permit syst e m be require d f o r the installation o f su ch dishes.
At present, no buildin g permits are required to install a sate llite dish.
Mr . Ergen stated that overhead lines will not affect th e r ece ption, but they should not hit th e dish, e ith er.
Mr. McBrayer stat e d that if no p e rm i ts are r e quire d t o install a sa t e llite
dish, there is no wa y t o d e t ermin e if t hey wo uld comply wi th t he ordinan ce .
He qu e stio ned wh y an ord inan ce con trollin g t he installation of the s at ellit e
dishes wo uld be writte n, if permits fo r t he instal lation would not be re-
quired . Mr . Ca rs o n s t ated that he is of th e opinion t hat pr operty owne r s
s h oul d have t o get a permit t o i n stall the satell ite dishe s.
Mr . Ve n a r d asked if the term "Engineer's Ce rt ificate " i sufficient t o
cover the Commi sion's concerns. Mr . McBrayer stat ed that thi is a
standard phrase used throughout the building i n dustry , and did not ee any problem .
The members of the Co mmission expressed t hei r a ppreci a t ion to Mr. Er gen
fo r his atten dance . The staff was a s ked to look at th e proposed reg ulatio ns
i n light of the co n cerns exp r esse d by th e Co mmis s ion a t this mee ting , a nd
to re po rt back to the Commiss i on a t a f u t u re mee ting. Hr s . Roma ns sug-

has agreed to dedicate a 20-foot easement for the water line in the
vacated right-of-way, with the stipulation that the easement will be
vacated upon the relocation of the water line and the new easement con-
veyed to the City.
Mr. Allen asked the location of this property in relation to the K-Mart
Store. It was noted that this property is immediately west of K-Mart.
Mr. Carson asked Mr. Wag o ner if he has read a copy of the staff report,
and if he and the applicant agre e with the staff recommendation. Mr.
Wagner stated that he and Mr. Metze! have read the report, and do agree
with the recommend ation; th ey will work with the Utility Department to
resolve the issue on the water line relocation.
McBrayer moved:
Magnuson seconded: The Planning Comm ission recommend to City Council

fee" which is paid as part of a building permit. This s oli d waste impact
fee cost him $500 when he obtained a building permi t for a house he is
building in that community . The cost of this fee is a formula based o n
the number o f bedrooms, bathrooms, and ki tche ns, but passes on to the
developer a proportio nate cost of handling the refuse to be generated
by the d evel opme nt.
Mrs. Romans stated t hat the amendments to the B-2 Zone District regarding
used car lots was referred to City Cou n cil; this issue was tabled until

tained in Co uncil Bill No. 54, Series of 1985 . He noted that this may

stated that he felt it was a step i n the right direction. Fu rther dis-
c ussion ensued. Mr . Ve nard stated that this procedure will g e t the situa-

with utility companies , is responsible for the relocation of utilities
as needed to implement the Downtown Redevelopment Project. This sup-

IV. REQUESTS FOR PROPOSALS.
Ms. Powers discussed a schedule proposed for the receipt of Requests
for Proposals on development of the area recently added to the redevelop-
ment project area south of U. S. 285. RFP's are being requested for only
a portion of this area at this time . A draft copy of the Offering State-
ment is also included in the packet for the information of the Authority.
The Authority will advertise for Proposals in the Denver Post and ~
Mountain News, in addition to letters which will be sent to a number of
large developers. This list of developers has been compiled from recent
staff contacts, and from those who responded to the previous Requests for Proposals.
Ms. Power reviewed very preliminary cost and rev enue estimates on the
pos ible redevelopment of this area. Discussion e nsued.
Ms. Powers and Mr. Hinson stated that developers are being asked to respond
to the req uest fo r proposals by July 26th, and following evaluation by
staff would be submitted to the Urban Renewal Authority at their regular
meeting of August 7.
Mr. Voth noted that he would be out of town from August 5 through August

notice of the intent to appeal the Authority determination and award of
relocation expenses made at the June 6, 1985 meeting. A full written

Mr. Hinson stated that Mr. Waddell has also submitted a letter requesting
an extension of the six-month filing deadline for relocation claims on
advertising expenses . Hr. Waddell's contention is that he was not aware
of the six-month deadline until notified in writing by former Relocation
Officer Belnap. Mr. Waddell further contends that their largest influx
of new and one-time customers is during the fall school band rental pro-
gram, which occurs between late August and early October, and they want
to do heavy advertising during that period of time . Mr. Hinson stated
that in reviewing the files on the Waddell Music Group, it is evident
that ~lr. Waddell was notified several times of the filing deadline by
Ms. Belnap. Mr . Waddell has been advised, by Mr. Hinson, of the consensus
of the Authority on past requests f o r filing deadline extensions that the
six-month time limitation is adequate and should be adhered to. Mr.
Hinson stated that in the opinion of the staff, Mr. Waddell did receive
notice on more than one occasion of the forthcoming filing deadline, and
did not pursue the filing of his claim in a timely manner .
Hr. Neal stated that he did not feel the intent of the money for advertising
expenses is to bring in new or one-time customers, but to notify present
customers of a change in location; he stated that in his o pinion, the ad-
vertising campaign proposed by Mr. Waddell is at cross-purposes with the
intent of the advertising reimbursement from the Authority.
Minnick moved:
Neal seconded: The Urban Renewal Authority approve payment of $2,963.93
to Waddell Music Group for reprinting of obsolete material;
this is the final payment which will be made to this busi-
n e ss.

ABSTAIN: None
ABSENT: Novicky, Cole
The motion carried.
Mrs. Cole entered the meeting at 6:05 P. M.

Group. Mr. Hinson stated that previous payments have been made in the
amount of $22 ,182 .55. This latest claim was submitted on April 24, 1985,
but supportin g documentation was not submitted with the claim, and was
only b r ought ln for staff review within the past week.
VII. FINANCIAL REPORT.
Ms. Powers discussed th e financial report for the past month, noting
that there are two n ew pages of the report which replace one of the pages
con t ained in the packet.
Ms . Powers discussed the statements from the First National Bank, trustee
o n the bond issue. Ms. Powers pointed out that the Authority should keep
in mind that a payment in the amount of $1 ,600,000 is due in 1987 .

'Hh these' issues in mind, the Planning Commis s i on is of the opinion that all auto-
mo bile/vehicle related uses should be permitted only as a Conditional Use in the B-2
Business District. Automobile car laundries and polishing businesses and motor re-
pair businesses have been Conditional Uses for some time. The Commission would recom-
me nd that sales lots and filling stations also be permitted only as a Conditional Use.
In this way, each s~ecific automobile/vehicle-related business will be considered at
a specific location and any foreseen or anticipated pro b lems can be addressed and
resolved before the use is approved . The provisions would apply to all new sales
lots and upon a change of ownership for any sales lot or business after the effective
dat e of the Ordinan ce . If the sales l o t appr ov ed as a Condit i o nal t:se ••ere to be
sold, th e new owner would have t o reaffirm com pliance with any con ditions i mpo sed at th e time of the initial approval.
To this end, t h e following s ections of the Comprehensive Zoning Ordinance would be
r e pealed: §16.4-12 c (4) Automobile sales or lease not including commercial vehicle
wrecking, dismantling or junk yards, §16.4-2 c (8) Gasoline and oil service stations,
§16.4-12 c (10) }btor vehicle sales or lease , §16.4-12 c (14) Recreational vehicle
sales o r lease to includ e boats, trailer, mo torcycles and o ther recreatio nal vehicles.
A new §16.4-12 e (2) Sales lots for new and used automobiles, mo tor vehicles, recre-
ational vehicles, boats, trailers, or motorcycles, and §16.4-12 e (3) Automob ile
service stations, would be adopted. Section 16.4-12 e (2)(b) and (c) set forth
information to be provided with the site plan at the time of application for the
sales lot Conditional Use and the matters to be specifically considered by the Com-
mission when reviewing the site plan. Section 16.4-12 e (3) also cites specific
criteria for service stations.
There are some issu es which the Planning Comm i ss i o n feels sho uld apply t o all
businesses in the B-2 Zo ne District, not just t o sales lots. These include re-
strictions relative to fencing along stre et frontag es , the percent of landscaping
to be in th e fro nt of the lot and setbacks . As to fencing and landscaping, the
Commission members are of th e opinio n t hat any amendments should be address ed in
§16 .4-17, Fe nces and Re taining Walls, and §16.4-18 Landscape Ordinance, as they
would apply to all businesses rath e r than in the B-2 Zone District as they would
apply t o one specifi c us e . Th e Commissio n has initiated thes e changes and will con-
sid e r t hem at Publ i c Hearing .
Af to setbacks, th e Commi sio n would r ecommend that a new s ecti on , §16.4-1 2 9 (2)
Setb acks, sub -s ectio ns (a ) and (b) be added , which woul d r equi r e a minimum s etback
for any bu i l dings of 10 feet o n non-co rn er l o ts and a min i mum setback o f fi ve (5) f ee t
for the first 100 feet from the corner on a corner l0t, an d 10 fePt f o r any frontag~
in excess of th e 100 feet.
Becaus th e Comprehensive Zoning Or dinance already inc ludes r equ iremen ts for t he sur-
facing of sales lots, minimum o ff-s treet pa rking requireme nts and si gnage , th e Com-
mission mem bers did n o t f eel it was n ecessa r y to add r e s th ose issues specifica lly in
t hL B-2 regul a tio ns r el ative to sales l ots . To do so could create a po int o f conflict
b tween the different section and make enforcemen t d iffi cult .
The Planning Commis ion c o nsi der d th,· attac-hPd r t.>v isi o n o f the B-2 Businpss Distric-t

INITIATED BY City Plannin2 and Zo nin2 Commissio n
ACTION PROPOSED Receive the recorrunendation of the Ci t y Planning and Zoning Com-
mission relat i ve to cer t ain amend me nts to the Comprehensive Zo n ing Ordinance an d
Public Hearin .
INTRODUCTION AND BACKGROUND:
I n wo r ki ng wi t h the 1985 Comprehensive Zoning Ordinance after it recently became e f-
fec t ive, the staff found that there were several sec tions of the Ordinance which could
be interpreted differently than intended when they were drafted, and other sections
which were difficult to e nforce. The members of the City Co un cil and Planning Com-
mission also reviewed th e Ordinance and off red suggestio ns that they felt would eithe clarify o r strengthen the Ordinance.
The proposed amendments were discussed with the Planning Commission, and were con-
sidered at a public hearing on July 16, 1985.
The proposed amendment s are summarized as follows:
a. §16.2, Administratio n of the Ordinance . Specific conditions for conside ration by
the Board of Adjustment and Appeals in revie wing requests for a variance to th e
Sign Code were inadvertently omitted from the Comprehensive Zoning Ordinance
during the process of rewriting and editing . These would be incorporated into the Ordinance.
b. §16.3, Procedures for Initial Zoning of Property, Rezoning , and Changes and
Amendments t o the Ordinance. The amendmen t would add the procedure to be fol-
lowed in changing the text of the Comprehensive Zoning Ordinance.
c. §16.4-17, Fences and Retaining WalJs . This amendment would prohibit any fences
along th e str et side o f propertirs in the B-1 and B-2 Business Districts , but
would permit masonry walls no highl•r than 30 inches along the street sides of
properties, and walls or fences no mo re than six (6) feet in height on the rear and interior side yards.
d. §16.4-18, Lands caping~~
1. The responsibility for detlrmining the value of property for the purpose
I •
•
•
• •
-2-
of meeting the requirements fo r lands c aping in the event of major remodeling
is now on the City staff; the suggested change would pla ce the r es ponsibility
on the pro p e rty owner to present inform ation establishing the value of the
principal building. If improvement to the principal building exceeds 50%
of the value o f th e building, the property would have to be landscaped in compliance with the r egulations.
2. A security instrument would be r equired to cove r the cost of landscaping
prior to the issuance of a Temporary Certificate of Occupancy if the land-
scapin g is not installed at the time of o r immediately following th e com -pletio n of the construction.
3. The location of the required landscap ing in the commercial and industrial
districts is not addressed, and the amendment would r equi r e 50 % o f the land-
scaping to be installed between the s treet line and the front buil ding set-
back, or in front of th e exist ing buildi n g.
4. A formula would be adopted to determine the number of required st r ee t trees
if a lot has more t h an 40 feet o f s tre t frontage.
e . §16.4-19, Sign Code. Clarification r elative t o the time required for the re-
moval of prohibited signs which have been erected after the enactment o f the Sign
Code wo uld be established and th e number o f days given f or compliance would be clarified as "cal e ndar days".
TI1ese chang es and/o r additions to th e 1985 Comp r e hensive Zo ning Ordinance are neces-sary for effective implementation.

bility on the property owner t o present information
establishing the val ue of the principal building. If
improvement t o the principal bu ilding exceeds SOX o f
the valu of the building, the property would have to
be landscaped in compliance with the regul atio ns .
2) A security instrument would be re qui red to cover the
cos of landscaping prio r to th issuance of a Temporary
Certificate of Occupancy if the landscaping is not in-
stalled at the time of or immediately f ollowing the
completion of the construction.
3) The location of the required landscaping in the com-
m rcial and indus trial dlstricts is not addr essed ,
and th amendment would require SO Z of the landscaping
to be installed belween the slreet line and the front
building sc·tba c k, o r in fron of thP existing building.
4) A formula would be adopted to determine th e numb e r of

of street frontage.

TO: The Planning and Zonin g Commissi on
FRO M: The Planning Divisi on
DATE: July 2, 1985
RE: Amendm e nts t o th e Comprehensive Zo nin g Ordinance.
The revisions to the Comprehensive Zonin g Ordinance have been in effect
for almost one month now; and, in working with the new Ordinance, the
staff has experienced minor problems with interpretation and enforcement
of a few sections. The Cit y Council and Planning Commission have also
recommended changes t o the Ordin ance, which the staff would like to address
as s oo n as possible.
In order to proces s these issues, a Public Hearing has been scheduled on
July 16, 19 85 to co nsider the proposed text changes . The proposed changes
are as follows:
Section 16.2 Administration of the Ordinance . Through an editing error,
the variance conditions for consider ing a Sign Code variance were deleted,
and should be rein serted in Se c tion 16.2-8 b (1) (c) as follows:

(i) THERE ARE SPECIAL CIRCUMSTANCES OR CONDITIONS SUCH AS THE EXISTENCE
OF BUILDINGS, TOPOGRAPHY, VEGETATION, SIGN STRUCTURES OR OTHER
MATTERS ON ADJACENT LOTS OR WITHIN THE ADJACENT PUBLIC RIGHT-OF-
WAY, WHICH WOULD SUBSTANTIALLY RESTRICT THE EFFECTIVENESS OF THE
SIGN IN QUESTION; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, THAT SUCH SPECIAL CIRCUMSTANCES
OR CONDITIONS MUST BE PECULIAR TO THE PARTICULAR BUSINESS OR
ENTERPRISE TO ~~ICH THE APPLICANT DESIRES TO DRAW ATTENTION, ~~
DO NOT APPLY GENERALLY TO ALL BUSINESSES OR ENTERPRISES.
(ii) THE VARIANCE, IF AUTHORIZED, WILL h~N NEITHER THE GENERAl
PURPOSE OF THIS ORDINANCE NOR THE REGULATIONS PRESCRIBED FOR THE
DISTRICT IN WHICH THE SIGN IS LOCATED.
(iii) THE VARIANCE, IF AUTHORIZED, WILL NOT ALTER THE ESSENTIAL CHARACTER
OF THE DISTRICT IN WHICH THE SIGN IS LOCATED.
(iv) THE VARIANCE, IF AUTH ORIZED , WILL NOT SUBSTANTIALLY OR PERMANENTU'

Section 16.4-18 Landscape Ordinance. There are three areas of c o n c ern t o the
staff in the Lands ca pe Ordinance.
a. 16.4-18 b (1). The Ordinance now requires a pro perty own e r wh o is
remodelin g his building, when the value of the remo deling exc eeds 50 %
of the value of the property, to put in landscaping in a cco rdance with
the Ordinance. Th e value o f the property includes both the land and the
building on the land. Few remo delin g projects would amount t o 50% of
the value of the entire pr o perty , and the intent was to require landscaping
in cases of subst a ntial remod elin g . Th e staff is of the opinion that
the valuation sho uld be r e l a t e d t o th e build ing only, and no t the land as
well.
The Ordinanc e also p u t s the burd e n o n the Cit y to evalua t e t he wo rth
of the pro perty . I f the p r ope rty owner wer e t o be required t o p r ov ide
the Department with t he est ima t ed va lue o f the princ ipal building , it
would b e s im ple t o compa r e b u i l d in g v a lua ti o n t o th e v al uat i on of the
remodeling a n d t o de t e r mine i f the remo deling c ost s e xceed 50% of the
value of t h e b uildin g.
Thi s propos ed c hange is:
Section 16.4-18 b (1 ). Th ese r egulati ons shall a pply I N ALL ZONE DISTRICT S

(4) IN ACC El'TJNG A TEHPORARY CERTJFICATE OF OCCUPANCY, THE OWNER IS
CONSENTIN G ANU ACKNOWLEDGING THE AUTHORITY OF THE CITY TO PERFORH
THE LANDSCAPING REQUIREMENTS ON THE PROPERTY AND TO EXECUTE ON THE
SECURITY GIVEN BY THE LAND 0\oiNER.
c . The Planning Commission has suggested that 50% of the landscaping be
r equired to be installed on the front portion of a building site for
commercial and industrial zone districts. It may be difficult to
determine what thP "front portion of a building site" is, and s o the
staff would suggest that this amendment read as follows:
Section 16.18 d (2) e (1). Minimum of 10% of total lot area flltS!It SHALL
be landscaped, AND NOT LESS THAN 50% OF THE LANDSCAPING SHALL BE INSTALLED
BE~~EN THE STREET LINE AND THE FRONT BUILDING LINE.
Section 16.4-19 Sign Code. Code Enforcement is having an enforcement problem
with prohibited signs erected after the Sign Code went int o effect. The Code
states that notice shall be given that a prohibited sign shall be brought into
conformance or be removed within 180 days after the notice has been received.
This section was intended to apply to prohibited signs which were in existence
at the time the new Sign Code was adopted . Code Enforcement would like a new
section dealing with prohibited signs erected after the date of the Ordinance,
which signs would have to be brought into conformance or removed within five
days of the City's giving official notice. The following changes are suggested.
Section 16.19-3 a. Permit Reguired. It shall be unlawful to display,
erect, construct, relocate or alter (except for copy changes), any
sign without first filing with the Department an application in writing,
paying applicable fees, and obtaining a sign permit, except as provided
in Section 16.4-19-5 and Section 16.4-19-7 of this Ordinance. IF A SIGN
HAS BEEN DISPLAYED, ERECTED, CONSTRUCTED, RELOCATED OR ALTERED WITHOUT
SUCH PERMIT OR NOT IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE TERMS OF SUCH PERMIT, THE SIGN
MUST BE REMOVED WITHIN FIVE (5) DAYS OF OFFICIAL NOTICE.
When a sign permit .... etc. to end of section a.
Section 16.4-19-14 Prohibited, Hazardous and Abandoned Signs -Enforcement
Procedures.
a. Notification of Unlawful Signs. Notice shall be given by Certified
Main or personal service to the owner or lessee of such unlawful
signs and to the owner of the property on which such unlawful signs
are located.
Prohibited signs IN EXISTENCE BEFORE THE EFFECTIVE DATE OF THIS
ORDINANCE, as described in Section 16.4-19-8 shall be de c lared a
nuisance by the Department. The notice shall require that prohibited
signs SHALL be brought into conformance with this Ordinance or be
removed within one hundred eighty (180) days after the notice has
been received. Signs EXISTING BEFORE THE EFFECTIVE DATE OF THIS
ORDINANCE WHICH ARE prohibited in Section 16.4-19-8 d, j, and 1,
shall be removed within three (3) years from th e date the notice
is received. PROHIBITED SIGNS ERECTED AFTER THE EFFECTIVE DATE OF
THIS ORDINANCE SHAU BE REMOVED WITHIN FIVE (5) DAYS OF RECEIPT OF
OFFICIAL NOTIFICATION FRO~! TilE DEPARTMENT. This Section shall no t
b e applied to require the removal of any sign f o r which it is
lawfull y required , by Federal or State Constitution or statuti:',

Park Fac i lit i es Reservation System Report
This report provides information regarding Englewood's park shelter
reservation system, general informat ion regarding current facility usage,
an analysis of reservat ion systems and fee schedules used by other large
park & recreation depa rtments in the De nv er Metro Area and alternatives
for review, alon g with pros and cons for each alternative.
The system fo r rental of fields used by our department is provided as
additional information to this report. Since most departments have very
similar requ irements for rental requirements and fees, this issue was not
analyzed for availabl e alternatives.
Additional information in the summar y provides some information as to
reservation system control and park facility policing. Englewood's present
park shelter and picn;c facility usage requirements are as follows :
-Parks shelters are reserved for the year beginning January 2 of each year.
-Park s shelters are reserved on a first come, first served bas is.
-There is no fee or preference given to residents.
-Shelter s are only reserved for those groups having 50 or more participants.
-Reservations may be called in by phone or made in person . Reservat ion s by
phone must be confirmed within two workir.g days in person and a permit
issued. Failu re to comply to this rule can result in reservation cancellation.
-Reservation slips must be posted by the group using the reserved facility a
minimum of two hours in advance of picnic/activity.
-There is no reservation system for general park usage, day care, or school
usage; either in or out of city use.
Requirements for Ballfield reservations:
-Belleview and Spencer fields are the only fields rented.
Teams make own arrangements for balls and umpires.
-Rentals are on a first come, first served basis.
-Fields are rented for games only.
-Usage is figured to the nearest half hour.
-Rentals may be cancelled by the Parks and Rec. De pt. five days before the
rental date. {League play and raino uts have priority over rentals.)
-Non-Englewo od leagues pay triple the rental rate.
-All park regulations apply to any and all park facilities, reserved or non-reserved.
-No alcoholic beverag e allowed by City Ordinance .

Park Facilities Reservation System Report
-No collections or charges to spectators can be made without written approval
of the Parks and Recreation Dept .
-Playability of the field is to be determined by City employee assigned to
the game and that decision is final.
-All fees are due 5 days prior to date of rental.
-Fees paid by no-shows are non-refundable .
General Information Regarding Englewood's Current Park Shelter/Facilities
Usage.
Shelter and covered picni c facilities are reserved at Belleview (two picnic
shelters and the nature area shelter), Cushing, Jason, Bates-Logan, Centennial,
and Baker Parks.
Group reservations have been averaging around 425 groups per year, with approxi-
mately 60 % of persons making th e reservations being an outside resident.
We have experienced a high usage and demand for park shelter usage this year.
To date, practically all park shelters are booked through the end of September
for weekend use and many re s ervations are now being made for weekday evenings.
We have also observed a very high usage of all park facilities by drop-in bus-
loads of out of City schools, day cares, and religious schools. These groups
generally have inadequate supervision over their groups, cause disruption to
other park users , and often vandalize park facilities, trees, and landscape.
this problem seems to be an issue in immediate need of control. 1 personally
have received two calls, this yea r , regarding this problem, from _residents
adjacent to Belleview and Jason Parks.
Analys is of Reservat ion Systems, Fee Schedules & Requirements by Other Large
Departments in the Denver Metro Area for Shelter/Picnic Area Usage :
The information regard ing the above 1 isted items are attached for your review.
Some items noteworthy of comment are:
1. The only city allowing special reservation times for residents only is
the City of Denver for their mount ain parks. Although their local permit
requires residency, it is a "grey" area, not strictly enforced.
2. Departments allowing alcohol do so by specia l permit : exception Denver &
Aurora. Those 1 imiting alcoholic beverage to 3.2 only, have no effective
control of this requirement. No department allows "hard" liquor.
3. Most cities/districts require permits. Foothills and Wes t minster require
no permit fees. Foothills does require a da mage/cleanup deposit based on
group size.
4. Aurora is the only city with no permit or fee requirements.
5. South Suburban and Lakewood require damage/cleanup deposits, along with
use fees.
6. Most cities/districts require a permit for schools/day cares to use open
park areas at no charge, however, permits and fees are required for use
of sheltered picnic facil iti s. School and day care usage without fees
is restricted to Monday thru Friday usage.

]. Only South Suburban and Wheatridge have resident and non-resident fees.
In addition, their systems are the most diversified and difficult to
control.
SUMMARY:
Attached are alternatives the City Council may review in considering changes
to our existing shelter/facility permit and reservation system.
It should be noted that those departments having resident and non-resident
fees have either a ranger program or special pol icing force to assist in
control of this requirement, as well as general park usage.
Westminster, at times, may require a roster of shelter users to determine
residency.
In final review of all information and procedures used by various departments
throughout the Denver Metro Area, it is perhaps best to adopt those require-
ments and fees for shelter/facility use that best suit the local community
needs rather than copy another department's pol icy.
For the purpose of determining residency, I would recommend that if a local
business or sponsor is a local address, then that group be declared resident.
For purpose of determining residency of a group made by an individual, the
individual making the reservation must be a resident.
When in doubt as to residency of any group by individual reservation, the
department may require a roster of participants; SO % of which must reside
within the City.

Commission Recommendation
-1-
•
Cons
Us e rs are acc ustomed t o
free u sage.
De lay s any sche du l ing for
use by non-resi den t s until
Apri I I.
Will require policing with
poI i ce powers
0
Remar ks
S i nce a rese r vation
guarantees use, a charge
of $25 is very reasonable.
With a group of SO+ this
cha r ge amounts to only so~
per person .
Difficu l t to enforce. Non-
resident could have resid -
ent make reservation f or
their group.
Day cares & other users
charge for their services
while using Englewood's
parks free.
Aids department pol icing
of park users and follow-up
leads to occurrences of
vanda I ism.
Allows for local schools to
use parks at no charge to
students. Promotes comm-
unity appreciation among
yo uth of the community.
Difficult to verify & control
residency, determine local
residency of group members;
only can determine residency
of person making reservation.

Station Contract
BACKGROUND
The Corp. of Engineers is reconstructing and lowering the South Platte
Ri ver Channel because of serious flooding problems along the river.
This necessitates the relocation of the City's 16 " water 1 ine currently
located in the South Platte River at Union Avenue. The relocated line
will be suspended on the Union Avenue Bridge.
The City currently has a co ntract with Lillard and Clark for construction
of a new intake pump station and sedimentation pond at Union Avenue
which is also a part of the River Channelization Pro ject.
Public bids were received August 9, 1985, and Lillard and Clark was the
only bidder. Negotiations with Lillard and Clark resulted in a contract
price of $103,970.
FINANCIAL DETAILS
The Colorado Water Conservation Board will pay 100 % of the relocation
cost by reinbursing the City. In the current contract, the City is
receiving only a portion of the total costs as reimbursement. In this
Change Order, separate accounting is required of the Contractor and
the Engineer because of the different pay back provisions for each
separate portion of the work .
RECOMMENDATION
That the Englewood City Council approve Change Order #3 in the amount of
$103,970. and direct staff to in~edi ately give the Contractor Notice to
Proceed .

I am writing to provide you with formal approval to proceed
with relocation of the city's water main crossing the South
Platte River at Union Avenue. The cost, estimated to be
Sl03 ·, 970, is acceptable; and I understand the work will be
accomplished as a change order to our existing agreement for the
pump station reconstruction and related work at the Union Avenue
site. You will recall we originally intended to include the
relocation work in that agreement.
It is the agency's obligation to reimburse the City of
Englewood for its costs in accomplishing the water line
relocation, so you should direct the billings to us for
reimbursement.

ACTION PROPOSED Amend Title I , Chapter 4 . Section 1 : Title VII .
•
Ch a pter lA-2 , Section C; and Title XI , Chapter 1, Section lOB , of
Englewood Mu nicipal Code 1985 .
BACKGROUND
The Court o f Appeals case of Martinez v. Kirbens (cited in the
propo sed o r d inance change) held a municipal cour t cannot iMpose a
sentence t o probation for any longer term than the length of the
imprisonment that could be imposed for the same o rd inance violation .
Presen t l y Englewood 's maximums are $300 fine a nd/or 90 days in jail .
Ninety days is not a realistic time for probation , especially fo r a
repeat offender.
The provisions of 31-16-101 CRS p rovide maximum penalties for
municipalities to enforce violations of their ordinances of $300
fine and/or 90 days in jail . However, this power is not exclusive
and a home rule city can increase this. See 31-15-104 CRS. To
avoid problems of automatic first instance jury assignment, the
maximum penalty should not exceed that of petty offenses as provided
in 16-10-109 CRS. Accordingly, the present increase in fines and
maximum penalty permits a more realistic maximum probationary period
while still maintaining the requirement that a defendant must file
a written demand and tender the jury fee within ten days of arraign-
ment to preserve his right to a jury trial.
FINANCIAL DETAILS None.
RECO~ffiNDATION That City Council approve and adopt the proposed
Bill for an Ordinance amending Englewood Municipal
Code 1985 as it pertains to maximum punishment
which can be i mposed by Englewood Municipal Court.
