The r egular meeting of the Englewood Downtown Development Authority was called
to order by Chairman Bill Pendleton at 1 2 :2 0 PM on July 10, 1985.
The minutes f rom the previous meetings were presented for approval. Ms. Owens
moved, second ed by Mr. Tomooka, to approve the minutes f rom the regular meeting
on June 12, 1985, and the minu t es f rom the s pecial meeting on June 1 9 , 19R5.
The motion was passed unanimously by voice vote.
The Treasurer's Feport, dated June 30, 1985 , was not available for this
meeting .
CHAIRMAN'S REPORT
Board Appointments -Mr. Pendleton noted that the reappointments of Barry
Coleman and himself 1•ere made by City Council at the J un e 17, 1985 meeting.
Mr . Pendleton noted that both he and Mr. Coleman were honored to be reappointed
to another four year term of office and t.•ere most anxious to participate in the
con tinuing activities of the DDA .
Also, the Board received the resignation of Ba rbara Holthaus, effectiv e J un e 12,
1985. Ms. Owens moved, seconded by Mr. Tomooka , to accept, with regrets the

Holthaus has been a Cha rter Member of the DD A, the r e was an exp r essed desire
to recogn ize Mrs . Holthaus 's contribution to the downtown Englewood area.

~ Improvements -~ Broadway -A general meeting had been held
on Wednesday, July 3, 1985 regarding the placement of trees an<'l lights in the
3300 and 3400 blocks of South Rroadway. Several merchants and property
owners were in attendance. The design from EDAW gave the types of trees,
placement of trees and lights, and estimated costs of this project.
Walt Tomooka expressed a concern as to the spacing of the trees. He felt
that they were too close, for when they would eventually grow to full size.
The foliage would completely cover any signage on the buildings. It was noted
that trees and landscaping alone will not improve the economics of the area.
Additional amentitites are also n ecessary, as in the case of Fort Collins,
where planters, benches, street graphics, banners, colors, parking st ructures,
and lots, and sidewalk improvements were included in an overall public im-provement project.
Alsok the City Forester in Englewood and in Fort Collins noted that the ash
tree varieties and linden and maple tree varieties are the most successful
trees in a sidewalk environment.
Ms. Owens moved, second ed by Mr. Green, to proceed with the plans that EDAW
and the City of Englewood had presented for the landscaping on South Broadway.
Discussion followed. It was noted that hecause trees will probably block
some of the signage on the buildings in the next 5-7 yea rs, it was doubly
important to provide block signage and street identification for the 3200 -
3500 blocks of South Broadway . Small signs with numbers will not be enough
for motorist's recognition of this Trolley Square area. Also, t he addition of
a water tap at each tree so that merchants could use the wat e r supply was
suggested. This will be looked into as it relates to cost and usage . The question was called.
The motion was passed unanimously by voice vote. The Director was instructed
to call Dense! Raglund to inform her to proceed with the planning and imple-
mentation of these public improvement projects for South Broadway.
~Committee Representative -Mr. Pendleton appointed Ken Mausolf t o
be the EDDA representative to the 1985 Englewood Parade on November 2. He
had indicated a desire to represent the Authority again this year. I • •

~ Approval Information and Update -The Board has received the formal loan
agreement from First Interstate BAnk of Englewood. The EDDA attorney has re-
viewed this with the recommended changes.
Ms. Owens moved, seconded by Mr. Tomooka to adopt the following Resolution:

the image of South Broadway in downtown Englewood, and
WHEREAS, the public improvements will coincide with those planned for Trolley
Square in the Englewood downtown redevelopment project, and
WHEREAS, the public improvements will help promote the economic growth of the downtown area,
NOW, THEREFORE LET IT BE RESOLVED that the Board of Directors of Englewood
Downtown Development Authority approve the Term Business Loan Agreement of
$225,000 from First Interstate Bank of Englewood for the purchase of public
improvements inthe 3200 -3500 blocks of South Broadway. The following tersm
will apply: an interest rate equal to prime rate, said prime rate to
change when and as such prime rate changes; accrued interest shall be due
and pauable at 9/30/85 and 12/31/85; at January 1, 1986, the then principal
outstanding shall be converted to a term note of five years with principal
to be amortized over ten yea rs at an interest rate of First Interstate
Bank of Englewood, N.A. prime rate, said rate to change when and as such
prime rate changes . Principal plus accrued interest shall be payable quarterly
on the last day of each March, June, September, and December of each year
commencing Mar ch , 1986, and continuing quarterly thereafter until December
31, 1990, on which last mentioned dated, all r e maining principal and interest shall be due and payable.

present, five votes would be required to g rant a variance.
BOARD MEMBER LIGHTHALL MOVED THAT THE MINUTES OF JUNE 12, 1985 BE APPROVED AS WRITTEN.

All six members voted in the affirmative, and the Chairman ruled that the
Minutes were approved as written .

Board Member Hallagin seconded the motion .
All six members voted in the affirmative, and the Chairman ruled that the
Findings of Fact were approved as written.
* * * * *
The Chairman open d the Public Hearing for Case No. 13-85. 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 that he had proof of posting and
publication. Mrs. Rothweiler stated that the applicants, Gordon Sign Company
and Key Savings, for property located at 3501 South Broadway, were requesting
permission to replace an existing double-faced illuminated sign with a new
double-faced illuminated sign, with new colors and a new logo. The property
is in the South Broadway Incentive Area. This is a variance from the Compre-
hensive Zoning Ordinance, Section 16.4-11 c {2) (e) (i) {d), Design Guidelines
for the Rehabilitation of Existing Buildings in the South Broadway Incentive
Area, which says that "Individual letters shall be the only typ e of internally
illuminated or backlit sign permitted." It is also a variance from Section
16.4-11 c (2) (e) (ii) (c), which states that the existing sign which is
nonconforming in the South Broadway Incentive Area "must be brought into
conformance or terminated and cease to exist ..•• whenever there is a request
for a permit to change the sign."

Representatives of the applicants were called for testimony. Steve Youel ,
293 0 West 9th Avenue for Gordon Sign Company, and Richard Blonshine, 5619
South Hillside St reet, for Key Savings, were sworn in for testimony.
Mr. Youel said that the Key Savings building in En g lewood is a round building.
It is difficult t o put normal signs on a round building , especially in keeping
with the ima ge desired by Key Savings . He submit t ed Exhibits I through IV
whi c h were photographs of the existing sign and the propo sed sign as installed
at o ther Key Savings loca tions. The proposed sign is sm al ler th a n the current
sign and is re c tan gular in shape. The conf lict with the Ordinance is the
illumination . He displayed a smaller version of th e sign with and without
illumination. The co lors were burg undy and white, and he said that the
lighting would not be harsh because it is the standard florescent lighting .
It is possible to do letter signs whi c h are illuminated, but the round shape
of the building precludes that in this location.
Mr. Youel said that this property is unique because it is one of the few
do wntown properties that have their own parking lo ts. A parking lot allows
the installation of a freestanding sign, whi ch is needed in this location
be cause the building is round . Mr. Fer gu s on asked if the Code would permit
a sign as large as the proposed sign. Mr. Youel said th at the Code would
permit a larger sip,n than the proposed sign. Mr. Ferguson said the sign
would be mu c h smaller than putting individual letters o n the building itself,
and a larger sign would be permitted. Mr. Youel agreed .
Ms Lighthall asked why a pillar sign was preferred . Mr. Yo uel said th at
individual letters are more expensive, and a greater impact can be c reated
with the proposed sig n which would h ave two-way exposure. Key Savings wants
the burgundy background for the ima ge of its business.
Ms Lighthall suggested tha t the cu rrent blu and white sign is more co nservative
in style a nd perhaps more like a bank. Mr. Fish asked if pedestal signs were
being installed at all of the Key Savings locations. Mr. Youel said there is
one location where it is not possible t o place a freestanding sign, and
letters were used against a brick background. The large burgundy background
is what Key Savings wants t o be uniform, and its first choice is a pedestal
sign.
Ms Lighthall asked wh y the blue and white illuminated sign was permitted and
the new o n e would not be permitted. Mrs. Romans said that in the Design
Guidelines for this district, it is stated that individual letters shall be
the only type of internally illuminated signs permitted in the district.
The existing sig n is n o n conforming, and the fact that Key Savings is planning
to c hange it means that the new sign must conform to the Ordinance. Mr.
Youel said that the sign could be installed, but could not be internally lit
or flood-lit.
There were n o further questions for Mr. Youel.
Mr. Blonshine said that he is with Key Savings. He said that the sign mentioned
by Mr. Youel in Greenwood Village consists of individual letters against a red
brick background. It was decided that the burgundy sign would not stand out
from the color of the brick. A round building does not lend itself to individual
letters. He said that in his opinion the new sign would upgrade the intersection.
Mr. Blonshine said that the treatment of the logo is the important thing in
the sign. Black letters would not do as well. The Sign is to be copied for

letterheads . He felt that th e n ew sign is more a ttra ctive. Mr . Seymour
disagreed that the new sign was more a ttractive than the old. He said that
there are not signs in the neighborhood whi c h compete with Key Saving s' signs,
and it is n o t as ne cessary t o have a striking sign. Mr. Blonshine said that
Key Savings wants to be consistent throughout all its branc h es , a n d o th e r
bra n c hes are n ot so distinctive as the on e in Englewood.
Mr. Brown said that he likes the new sign , a nd asked if the building is to
be painted a n d the property landsca ped. Mr. Blonshine said that the bank
may relocate in the redevelo pment project, may be sold and the business
r elocated outside of the central busin ess district , o r the bank may be razed
because of the amount of work required t o upgrade it.
Mr. Fer g us o n said th a t he understands that Key Savings is t r ying t o improve
its image. En glewood is also trying to improve its image , and that is why
th e reg ulatio ns fo r th ese signs in this district were made . He said that
Key Savin gs will receive bene fi ts from up g rad ing the image of Englewood
bec ause more people will be attracted t o the area . He said that due to the
uniqu e building a nd the l oca tion without competing signs , Key Savings does
no t n eed a striking sign, and should try putt i n g up a conforming sign .
Mr. Blonshine said the present sign is unattractive. Because the building may
b e r azed or Key Sa vings may move, Key Savings does not want t o make a third
kind of sign for what may be a temp o r a r y use. Th is sign would be expensive
a nd of no v al ue if th e business moves ou t of the South Broadway I n centive
Area.
Mr. Youel said t h e color and size of the sign is n ot the issue. The issue is
the i nner illumination . Mr . Blonshine said they might be able t o us e the
present sig n with alterations.
Mr . Fish said that h e thought the building was going to be torn down . Mr.
Blo nshine said that it will not b e required t o be t orn down, but Key Savings
may s ell or tear down the building . He said tha t within twelv e months the
building will probably no t be the re.
Mr. Ferguson said that the sign could be put up unlit, a lthough he und e rstood
that a lit sign is more valuable. Ms Lighthall asked why Ke y Savings was
applying for a varian ce fo r less than twelve months. Mr. Blonshine said th e
sign could be taken with them t o the new loca tion. In addition, Key Savings
wants to c reate the image that something is changing at Key Savings in o rd er
to share in the progress made in the financial field . There were no further
speakers for or agains t the variance. The applicants had nothing further to
add.
Mr . Ferguson asked what c h ange is being made in the sign. Mrs. Roma ns said
that a c h ange in copy is permitted. When the s tructure is chan ged , a permit
must be o btained, and that situation is covered in t he regulations whi ch
require the sign to be made conforming or to be removed.
The Chairman made the Staff Report part of the record . The Staff h ad n o
further comme nts. The Chairman closed the Public Hearing for Case 13-85.
BOARD MEMBER SEYMOUR MOV ED THAT THE APPLICANTS, GORDON SIGN COHPANY AND
KEY SAVINGS, FOR PROPE RTY LOCATED AT 3501 SOUTH BROADWAY, BE GRANTED
PERMISSION TO REPLACE AN EXISTING DOUBLE-FACED ILLUMINATED SIGN WITH A NEW
DOUBLE-FACED ILLUMIN ATED SIGN, WITH NEW COLORS AND A NEW LOGO, IN THE SOUTH
BROADWAY INCENTIVE AREA. THIS IS A VARIANCE FROM THE COHPREHENSIVE ZONING

IN THE SOUTH BROADWAY INCENTIVE AREA "MUST BE BROUGHT INTO CONFORMANCE OR
TERMINATED AND CEASE TO EXIST ..... WHENEVER THERE IS A REQUEST FOR A PERMIT
TO CHANGE THE SIGN."
Board Member Brown seconded the motion.
Discussion followed. The members voted, but befor the votes were displayed,
the members ga ve their findings a s follows:
Board Member Seymour stated he voted "no " because the sign wo uld not be in
keeping with the architecture of the building.
Mr . Hallagin voted "yes" because there were special circumstances in that a
sign can't be put on the wall, and the sign would be sm aller . The Ordinance
would not, in his opinion, be weakened by the Board's granting of a variance.
He said it met all four requirements f o r a va rianc e from the Sign Code.
Mr. Brown voted "yes" because there is a hardship because of the shape of
the building. He concurred with Mr . Hallagin 's reasons .
Ms Light hall voted "no " because the round building is distinc tive enough;
she liked the old conservative sign, a nd t h e new on e is less attractive . She
asked why everyth ing had to match , and said that the purpose of the Broadway
Incentive Area would be weakened if the variance were granted.
Mr. Ferguson voted "no" because the variance would do injustice to the
Incentive Area and to the Code. It might alter the essential character of
the district, and would injure the neighbors who cannot back-light signs.
Others would want similar variances.
Mr. Fish said that the building is unique, and creates a difficulty in
putting up a sign. Illumination won 't weaken the Ordinance . He voted "yes".
When the votes were displayed, three members (Hallagin, Brown and Fish) had
voted for the variance, and three members (Seymour, Lighthall and Ferguson)
had voted against the variance. The Chairman ruled that the variance was
denied.
DIRECTOR'S CHOICE.
Mrs. Romans said that it has been decided that the members of Boards and
Commissions wh o are normally reimbursed for expenses during each month
would no longer receive reimbursement for the month in which they do not
attend a meeting.
Mr. Ferguson asked if the attorney had given her opinion on giving the Staff
Report to the applicants. Mrs. Romans said the attorney would have that
report for the next meeting.

Mr. Venard stated that he had in hand a copy of the Notice of Hearing which
was published in the ENGLEWOOD SENTINEL on July 24, 1985, and proof of posting
of the property . He called the applicant for testimony and asked if the Staff
had anythinr to add to the Staff Report. Mrs. Romans said she had nothing to add.

run a day care center. She stated that she can do a grea t deal to help children,
tea chin g writing , alphabet and preparing them for kindergarten.
Mr. Allen asked if it was correct that she was requesting an increase f rom four
to eight children . She said that she understood that the Staff had recommended
six as the maximum, and that is acceptable to her.
Mr. Carson noted the questions of the Fire Department. Mrs. Meadows stated she
has an excellent fire alarm. She said there is n o basement in her home, and a
new furnace was installed and inspected in April .
Mr. McBrayer asked about c hildren having access to the garage. Hrs. Headows
said they have no access, it is kept locked and the key is stored in a high
place . Mr. Carson asked if there is a playground for the children in the
back yard . Mrs. ~!eadows said there is part of a playground. She was in the
process of adding equipment when she was told she would have to apply for a
Conditional Use, and did not want to spend the money if she were denied.
Mr . Ca r son asked about the Doberman Pinscher owned by Mrs . Meadows. She
s aid the children do not have access to the dog. When the children are in the
hous e, the dog is o utside, but before the c hildren go outside, she puts the dog
in t he garage and locks the door . She said that the dog is very gentle with
children, and her grandchildren play with the dog.
Hr. Venard asked if Mrs . Meadows had read the Staff Report and if she agreed
to the conditions as suggested by the Staff. Mrs. Mead ows said "yes ", and
agreed to include them in her application .
Mr . Allen asked if the six children would improve her situation. Mrs. Meadows
said that it would help a grea t deal. Mr. Beier asked if she resides at this
address. Mrs. Meadows said she does. Mr. Carson asked if she owns the property;
Mrs . Meadows said she ren s, and the owner signed her application.
Mr . Beier asked what assurance the Commission has that Mrs. Meadows will stay
within the six children limi t. Mrs . Meadows said she is an honest person, and
her neighbors watch her very closely. Mr. Allen said that Code Enforcement will
also check the property.
Gail Ogden
4160 South Cherokee Street-was sworn in for testimony. She presented a
petition containing 41 signatures from n i gh bors of Irs. Meadows protesting
the possibility of extending the limit for a day ca re center from four children
t o from five to twelve. Ms Ogden said that Mrs. Meadows is currently taking
care of twelve children including her grandchildren. She knows this because
she (Ms Ogden) watches people bring the child ren to the hom e . She said there
is a day sleeper nearby who objects to the noise from c hildren before 8 :00 a.m.
Double parking is also a problem when child ren are picked up; people also park
on the wrong side of the street. This is particularly a problem because there
is not a stop sign at the south nd of th block, a nd traffic moves quickly
through the neighborhood. Ms Ogden stated that one of the children let the
Doberman out and it c hased one of the neighbo rs across the street; therefore,
the dog is ou t with the children occasionally .
Mr. Allen asked if Ms Ogden had c hildren of her own . She said she does not,
but her seven-year-old niece lives with her. She said she does not o bject
to the noise of the c hildren, except in the early morning .

Peggy Grywusiewicz
4133 South Ac oma Street -was sworn in for testimony. She said she lives a
couple of blocks away. She is Mrs . Meadows' daughter, and stated that her
mother is very good with children who are disturbed by divorce; she teaches
them manners and makes them happy. She said that children do make noise; that
is normal. The parking in the street is not done by her mother, and her mother
should not be denied her livelihood because some people are not parking
properly. Mrs. Meadows, in her opinion, is doing a service to the commun ity.
Ms Grywusiewicz said that Mrs. Meadows ' rates are very low because she has
eight children for whom she is babysit ting. If she is limited to a smaller
number of children, the rates will have to go up . Single parents will have
to pay more, and that will not be a service to the community.
Mr . Allen asked if Ms Grywusiewicz has children of her own. She said she
does not, but she does have a Doberman . Mr . Carson asked how large the
house is . She said it has three bedrooms and a large living room, dining
room and kitchen. She said she spent the day before Easter with her mother
helping with the children . They are happy children in her mother's ca re.
Mrs . Meadows cares for eight children full time, and has three or four who
come some of the time . There wer e no further questions.
Barbara Glee
4211 South Pennsylvania Street -was sworn in for testimony. She said she is
a client and a friend of Mrs. Meadows'. She has a nine-month-old baby, and
Mrs. Meadows has cared for the child for seven months. Mrs. Glee has irregular
hours, and appreciates Mrs. Meadows ' accommodating those hours. She does
not worry about the child in Mrs. Meadows' ca re. She could not understand
any objections from the neigh b ors . She has never parked on the wrong side
of the street, but does park in the driveway or in front of Mrs. Meadows' house.
Gary Kozacek
1260 West Oxford Avenue -was sworn in for testimony. He stated that Mrs.
has been taking care of chil dren for a long time, and there have been no
complaints. He can 't see any harm in the present situation. He was concerned
about the dog, but if there have been n o complaints, there probably is no
harm in the situation. He said he had n o t read the Staff Report.
Tina Grywusiewicz
3565 South Cherokee Street -was sworn in. She stated that she is Mrs. Meadows'
daughter. The Doberman which belongs to her mother is four years old , and
plays with Ms Grywusiewicz's children. The dog is a loving dog, and provides
protection for Mrs . Meadows and the children . Mrs. Meadows' day care is a
a service to the commu nity.
Mr. Allen said he thought that the dog had no contact with the children . Ms
Grywusiewicz said that she lived with her mother for a time, and the grand-
children play with the dog, but the day care children do not come into contact with the dog.
Stanley Munyon
4135 South Cherokee Street -was sworn in for testimony. He said he had lived
in the neighborhood for 16 years and owns his own home. He wants to preserve
the peace and tranquility of a neighborhood with many retired people who are
good neighbors. He feared businesses moving into the neighbo rhood . Mr. Munyon
stated that Mrs. Meadows, in his opinion, is not a quiet neighbor. He stated
that ther e had been a rock band practicing in the garage . He said he was
•
I • •
-
•
•
• -

afraid of the increase in traffic and that the peace and tranquility of the
neighborhood will be destroyed . He said the experience with the rock band
showed that Mrs. Meadows did not appreciate the t o ne of the neighborhood .
For several weeks the bank kept the neighbors from enjoying their back
yards and patios; and it was necessary tha t the police be called. He said
he is not against children , but "rezoning" the block t o permit the babysitting
business is n ot in the best interests of the neig hb o rhood .
Mr. Allen asked wha t time the children arrive . Mr . Munyon said they come
and go all the time. Mr . Allen asked wh a t t ime }lr. Muny on is bothered by
the c hildren. Mr . Munyon said anytime o n Friday, and other evenin gs. He
did not know how many c hildren were kept at the house. Mr. Allen said a
rock band would be much n oisier than c hildren. Mr . Mun yo n said that the band
practi ced for a mo nth befo re it ceased about a week b efore the meeting .
Mr. Stoel said the issue is children . He s t ated that Mr . Mun yon does not seem
to be opposed to the c hildren , bu t that there is a problem between t he neighbors .
}fr. Munyon said that he is opposed to the dis turb a n ce of the peace and tranquil ity
of the neighborhood. Mr. Stoel said it is not the children that cause the
disturbance, because Mrs. Meadows h as been ca ring for c h ildren for some time.
He said the only difference would be that the number of children would be
reduced. Mr . Munyon said limiting Mrs . Meadows to six children would not mea n
that she couldn 't have more children spread ou t over a day . This will cause traffic problems.
Mr. Allen asked wh at the objec t ion is. Mr. Munyon s a i d the increase in traf f ic
is not n o rmal t o the neighb orhood . Mr. Allen said six children would no t add
much traffic. Mr. Munyon said it wou ld increase the traffic.
Mr. Venard said th a t twelve children are being cared for n ow, and a maximum
of six children would decrease any problem . Mr. Munyon said that would be an
i mpro vemen t. Mr. Ve n ard explained that this is not a rez oning issue. A
Conditional Use is a use that is permi tt ed in a district if, after a hearing
before the Planning Commission, the use is found not to be a problem to the
neighborhood. Caring for no more than four c hildren is permitted in the R-1-C
Zone Dis trict . Caring for in excess of fo ur child ren requires the approval
of a Conditional Use followin g a hearing . The Staff evaluated the situation
and recommend ed that Mrs. Meadows be restricted t o no more than six children .
If the use is approved, it is the responsibility of the City and the community
to monitor the situation and see that the number does not increase.
Mr. McBrayer said that the condition under which th Planning Commission would
grant this Conditional Use is that it will be limited only to Mrs. Meadows
and be reviewed on a yearly basis. Mr. Munyon said he wanted the babysitting
restricted so that the community is not changed .
Jack Olsen
City Attorney for the City of Englewood -was sworn in for testimony. He
said he wished to testify concerning the dog . He said that, as a w1tness,
the applicant and neighbors had a right to question him concerning his
testimony. He asked that the Commission insure that the children do not
come into contact with the dog. He said he spoke with Doberman Societies
concerning the dog which recently killed a child in Englewood . The Soci ties
stated that Dobermans and unsup rvised children do not mix. Dobermans have
been bred for centuries to attack under certain circumstances . They should
never be left with unsupervised children . The City of Englewood and the owners
permitted the Doberman that killed the child to be tested by lawyers, veterinari-
ans, dog trainers and experts in the psychology of animals, who kept the dog

the entire day , subjec t i n g it to loud noises o f different k ind s . The se
peo ple wer e un a b le t o ma ke the d o g attack, and yet the dog h ad killed a n
unsupervised c h i l d. He stated that he cannot understand how Mr s . Meadows
co u ld c are f o r tw e lve c h i ldren, supervising them s o c l o sely t hat th e y could
never come into co nta c t with the dog. He stated that he has r e c e i ved reports
that the dog sna r l s at peo p l e go ing by the al l ey. The fen ce does no t seem
high enoug h to restrain the dog. Mr. Olsen said that there i s tes t imo n y
that the d o g c h a sed a neighbor o ff the property and it seemed a v i c i o us
c hase. He stated that the Commission had the right t o add a c ondit i on
that the Use is contingent upon the c hildren never being with t he dog , and
if that condition is not observed, the Conditional Use would exp ire . This
could be accomplished by a pen that is six feet high, and the r e qu i rement
that the dog be kept in the pen or the garage.
Mr. Carson said there is always a c hance that a c hil d will put i ts h a nd through
a fenc e . Mr . Ol sen said that is true, but the dog c ould n o t k i ll the c hild
through the f enc e. He said that Dobermans are trained t o attack t he throat.
Mr . Beier asked about the liability of the City if the Conditional Use i s
g ranted. Mr. Olsen said that the City would probably be lia b le if the Use
is granted witho ut a provision for the do g . Mr. Carson said tha t t he zo ne
district permits f o ur children who will be in an equal amo unt of danger
from the dog and asked if there is an ordinance a gainst a v i c i ous dog being
present at a day care c enter. Mr. Olsen said that, while the dog mi ght,
in his opinion, qualify as a vicious dog, it is questionable if the Muni c ipal
judge would uphold that opinion. He said that it may not be po ss i ble to
force the removal of the dog , but its a c cess to the c hildren ca n be f orbidden.
He said that the City is no t able t o stop the c aring f o r f our c hildren with
the dog in the h ome. The Ordinan c e would permit ticketing vic i o us dogs,
but the Muni c i pal J ud ge typ i cally g ive s th e ma ximum of $45 f i nes. Fi rst offenses
receive only $25 norma lly . It wo u l d be better to make the restra ining of
the dog pa rt o f the Cond i tiona l Us e. He said that sinc e Mrs. Meadows i s
wi l ling t o s pend s ome mo ney on the b ac k yard, this mi ght be a goo d inve stment.
Pe ggy Grywusi ew i cz r e turn ed t o the po dium say ing that o nly c e rtain Do bermans
a re attac k-t r ain ed . Do b errna ns no t s o trained, go f o r feet o r arms. She

can be p r otec ted wi th th e addi t ion of the co n dit ion which will insure t hat
Mr s . Meadows does wha t s he says she al r eady does by keepin g the d og a n d t he children s e parate.
Mrs . Mead ows returned. Mr . Allen stated that the issue is the dog and the
children. He asked if she would assu r e the Commission tha t th e d og and the
childr en wou l d n e ver come into c ontact . She said that she is very c areful ,
and none of the c hildren except her g randchil dre n a r e eve r wi t h th e dog .
She explained her sch edule , saying tha t becaus e she h a s a r o u tine, b o th the
children and the dog have a n oppo r t unity t o be i n the ya r d , but sh will
always keep them separate . She sai d tha t th e c hild r en come to her home
as ea r ly as six o 'clock a nd begin leavin g a t 2 :30, but a r e always go n by 6 :00 p .m.
Mr. Allen asked if she would ac c ep t t h e a dd i tion o f a c ondition st a ting tha t
if the c hild~ n wer ever with the dog , t h e license would be sus p nd ed . Sh e
agreed that the day care c hildren would n eve r b pe r mitted with th do , but
said that her g rand c hildren visiting after 6 :00p .m. wo uld s til l he p r mitted

to play with the dog . She stated that she spoke t o her cl ients regarding
double parking and parking across the street, and they a g reed t o correct
their parking habits. She referred to Mr. Munyon's complaint about the band.
She said she asked the neighbors if they objected to the band, and none of
them said that they did. They should have told her when she asked, and the
band would have stopped practicing .
Mr. Allen asked if Mrs . Meadows had considered getting rid of the dog. Mrs.
Meadows said that she needs the dog for protection because she is alone at
night. He also barks and warns that there might be danger.
Mr. Steel asked what the ages of the child ren are. Mrs. Meadows said they
are between nine months and four years old. Mr. Venard asked if she would
construct a six foot dog run. She said she would do that if the Commission
would give her some time to save the money for the run. Mr . McBrayer objected,
saying that in his opinion, the Commissio n should only require separation
from the c hildren, rather than specifying what the separation should be .
Mrs. Meadows said that the present fence is five feet high, and the dog has
been trained to never jump any fence. The dog is well trained, was ob edience
trained, and will not even go over a chair placed in a doorway.
Mrs. Meadows submitted a letter from Mrs. Dell Montgomery, the next door
neighbor, saying that the babysitting was not a problem for her and that there
had been similar operations in the neighborhood in the past.
Ms Peggy Grywusiewicz stated that there is no disagreement to provid ing
separation of the children from the dog, but she wanted some assurance that
the neighbors would not be persecuting her mother and lying about having seen
the dog with the children. She asked that pictures be provided or a City
Official witness any incident that would result in the lost of the Conditional Use .
Mr. Allen said that he was still worried about the dog, as he would feel responsi-
ble if the dog attacked a child. Ms Grywusiewicz said she would also feel
responsib le, but the dog and children have been kept separate since the Englewood a ttack several weeks before.
Ga il Ogden was recalled. Mr. McBrayer asked if she understood that the application
was for a Conditional Use permitted in this zone district. Ms Ogden said she
did understand that, and the people who signed her petition also understood
that. Mr. Carson noted that Ms Ogden notarized the signatures of all the
people signing the petition except her own. tis. Ogden agreed.
Mrs. Meadows said that the people who signed the petition were known to Ms
Ogden . Mrs . leadows said that Ms Ogden asked Mrs. Meadows' landlord to evict
her. She said she has not been a bad neighbor, and she doesn't understand why
some of the neighbors are against her. She said that neighbors several houses
away are not affected by six children.
Mr. Allen said he was concerned about her apparent unwillingness to get rid
of the dog. He said that he had no objec tion to the increased numb e r of
c hildren, but was con ce rned that th dog might someday get out of th garage
when the c hildren were out. Mrs. M adows said that the dog is ne ded fo r
protection . She has a routine , and the routine includes play time in the
yard for both the children and the dog, and they never mix.
Mr. Carson asked if she is the only adult in the home. She said h r son
sometimes lives with her, but she is of ten alone at night. Sh said that
she is extremely careful with childr n. She was a practical nurs for fif teen

years. No ch ild has ever been hurt in her car . Mrs. Meadows stated that
she is a responsible person and will not permit th do and th child ren to be together.
Mr. Allen said that child ren and dogs ar not predictabl He said he was
unsure about the possibility of keepin the child ren and dog sepa rate because
accidents can happen. Ther were no f urth r questions.
Barbara Glee returned for testimony. She testified that the chidren and
dog are separated. The dog does bark and growl, but, in her opinion, the
problem is that the neighbors are hostile to renters.
Mr. Olsen returned to test ify. Mr. Carson asked if Mrs. Mead ows would have
to carry insurance to obtain a state license. Mr. Olsen was unable to answer
the questions, but thought it unlikely. Mr. Carson said hav ing a dog would
probably affect any insurance fo r day ca re.
Mr. Allen asked if it were true that if Mrs. Meadows cared for only fo ur
children, as permitted under the zoning ordinance, the City would have no
responsibility. Mr. Olsen said, in his opinion, the City has the responsib ility
to protect children from a vicious dog. He said he was willing t o concede
that the dog might be goo d with children, but he asked that one of the
conditions attached to approv al of the Conditional Use be that t he dog and
children be separated.
Mr. Stoel asked if this would open Mrs. Meadows to harassment from the neighbors.
Mr. Olsen said that any complaints would be handled as evidence at a hearing
before the Commission or the Court. He was more concerned with protecting the
children. He said that the Staff would monitor the situation, and that under
Mrs. Ro mans the case would not be brought before the Commission without
substantiation. There were no f urther questions, or comments for or against
the Conditional Use .

the day care children to the condi tio ns listed in the Sta ff Report.

Discussion followed. Mr. Beier stated that, in his opinion, it would be
impossible to enfo rce the fifth condition. Mr. McBrayer said that a
Conditional Use permits the Commission to decide each case. There is no
right to run a day c are c enter for more than four children. The Commission
should consider the impact on the neighborhood. Building Codes c ha nge if
more than six children are permitted . He said that Mrs. Meadows s e ems
qualified, but there are variables, including the dog and the attitude of
the neighborhood.
Mr. Allen said that he would require the dog to be given away befo re he could
vote for the Conditional Use.
Mr. Gourdin said that he would not be opposed to day care in the ne ighborhood,
but would recommend a do g run. Mr. Allen thought a dog run wo uld be mo re
dangerous than the garage.
Mr. Stoel pointed out that if only four children are in the cente r, the r e will
be no controls at all on the dog. Mr. Carson said that do g s d o no t belon g

VII. Public Forum.
Mr. Oliver Yeo expressed his concern that the sewage treatment plant is
reaching capacity. He said the odor problem is severe, and any enlargement
would increase that odor because technology has not progressed. He also
suggested that water be removed from the Platte River further upstream where
the pollution is not as heavy. He suggested that a partnership be arranged
with Denver . He said the chemicals necessary to purify the water are so
strong that the water is undrinkable.
VIII. DIRECTOR'S CHOICE.
Mrs. Romans said that the City Council met on August 5, 1985. Councilman
Higday expressed his thanks to the Planning Commission for the work on the
Comprehensive Zoning Ordinance, especially on the B-2 Business District.
The Council has not yet set a date for a Public Hearing, and the matter has
been tabled until Au gu st 19. At the request of the Commission, the City
Council will meet with the Planning Commission after August 27. Two
topics on the Agenda for the meeting between City Council and the Planning
Commission will be the Trash Report and Redlining.
Mr. Beier asked for background information on redlining. Mrs. Romans said the
issue is how to preserve and protect the single-family residence areas .
The Comprehensive Plan and Zoning Ordinance may be tools that can be used
to preserve those areas. Mrs. Romans asked if all the Commissioners had a
copy of the Comprehensive Plan, and no one said he did not.
Mr. Stoel asked what problem had prompted the redlining. Mrs. Romans said
that it may have been in response to some developers who request rezonings
anytime there is a possibility of putting parcels of land together.
Mrs. Romans said the tour of Englewood may be repeated September 14 or 21.
Mr. Carson said he would like to see the houses to be annexed on Tufts Avenue.
Mr. Carson, Mr. Gourdin, and Mr. McBrayer said they would be interested in
a tour. Mrs. Romans said she wrote a thank-you note to Unique Mobility
thanking them for their hospitality.
Mr. Carson asked that the City Attorney check with the State Licensing
Authority to find o ut what the requirements are for child care centers,
particularly in regard to insurance.
IX. COMMISSION'S CHOICE.
Mr. Allen stated that he had attended the City Council meeting on August 5,
and the Council had not voted to put the trash question to a vote of the
people. He stated that the public is not well enough informed to make
such a decision. He said he would prepare a presentation to City Council,
but needs the help of the Committee and asked that the members stay after
the meeting to work on the report.
X. ADJOURNMENT.
The Meeting adjourned at 9:25 p.m.

ACTION PROPOSED A resolution supp:>rti.nq Federal legislation tbat will revitalize

and 1 islation that would 1
Fair Labor Starrlards Act.
The SUprare Cburt' s recent decision in the case of San Antonio Mass Transit
Authority v. Garcia reversed precedent and held that the Tenth Arrend!rent does not bar
a pplication of the Fair Labor Staroards Act (FLSA) to traditional function of State
and Local goverrurents.
•
Beginning October 14, 1985 , the Depart:Jrent of Labor will begin enforcerrent
of the FLSA against State and !neal goverrrnents retroactive to April 15, 1985.
In order to cooply with the various provisions of the FLSA, as we reM
unders tand them, the City of Englewood will spend an additional One Hundred Fifty
thousand dollars ($150,000) in overtilre carpensati on for opera tion that will be
affected . These costs do not include the trenerrlous additional record keep ing
responsibi lities or the loss of flexibility the City and its emplo yees have enjoyed
in the past with regard to such things as carpensatory time-off in lie u of overtilre
pay, call-back. and stand-by pay , and outside employnent provi sions.
It is therefore inp:>rtant , that the City of Englewood formally CCJT'Irunicate
its objection to the SUprare Cburts decision in the Garcia case and furthernore,
that the City supports Federal legislation exempting State and Ux:al governrents
fran coverage under the Fair Labor Standards Act and that the freedans guaranteed
to the States by the Tenth J'lrrerdrrent be retained.

Fire Department Breathing Air CompresE~r
DATE
August 26, 1985
INITIATED BY James Broman Fire Chief
ACTION PROPOSED City Council approves the awarding of the bid for a
mobile breathing air compressor, to the low bidder, Eagle Air Systems,
, in the amount of $21,806.10.
•
For several years, the fire department has been concerned about our
limited ability to deliver adequate quantities of purified breathing
air at the scene of a fire or hazardous materials incident. A number
of spare air cylinders are carried on the apparatus, but space limi-
tations prohibit carrying a greater number. Our present compressor
is 12 years old and is strictly a fixed installation. When we run
out of spare cylinders at an incident scene, we must begin shuttling
cylinders to the compressor site, which is a time consuming and gener-
ally inadequate process. A typical residential fire will exhaust our
present supply and any larger incident presents serious problems.
In the 1985 budget, $20,000.00 was budgeted to purchase a mobile breath-
ing air compressor. Six bids were received on June 24, 1985, ranging
from $21,806.10 to $32,998.00. It is my recommendation that the award
be made to the low bidder, Eagle Air Systems in the amount of $21,806.10.
Delivery is approximately 60 days.

INITIATED BY Gary Diede, Engineering Services

Project to Thomasson Construction Company for the
low bid of $70,760.90.
BACKGROUND
Th e condition of the concrete bridge decks on Uni on Avenue Bridge over
the South Platte River and Logan Street Bridge over Little Dry Creek
has been steadily deteriorating and requires rehabilitation to extned
the useful life of these bridges. The deteriorat ion is mainly a result
of corrosion of the steel reinforcement caused by salt infiltrating the
concrete .
A cost effective metho d of r epai r involves the removal of areas of unsound
concrete and the placeme nt of a de nse concrete overlay to cover the entire
deck. This method should prevent salt from reaching the level of steel
reinforcement and provide a smooth and structurally sound surface for many
years.
FINANCIAL
On August 26, at 2:00p.m. the public competative bids were opened for the
Bridge Deck Repair and Overlay project. Two bids were received as follows:
1. Thomasson Construction Company $ 70,760.90
2. Kiewit Western Company $148,000.00
Engineers Estimate $58,139.00
Total Project Funding Available in PJF $75,000.00
Construction per low bid $70,760 .9 0
Construction of reusable barricades $2,900.00
Chemical Analysis of Concrete Decks $300.00
Contingencies $1,039.10 *
TOTAL $75,000.00
•
I •
-
•
•
•
• •
* Although the contingency appears low, the extent of concrete removal
was conservatively estimated, and the contractor will be paid for
the amount actually removed which can only be determined after ex-
ploratory digging.
REC<M1ENOATION
The highly specialized nature of the work limits the number of contractors
qualified to perform the work, which may be the reason for only two bidders.
Although the low bid is higher than the Engineer's estimate, we feel that
due to the relatively small size of the project, and the fact that the bridges
are located in two different parts of the City, apparently influenced the
unit prices more than we had anticipated. ·
If we were to rebid next spring, the contract could result in additional
concrete removal and replacement caused by increased corrosion of the
reinforcing steel and the potential exists for a higher "low bid."
Therefore, we recommend that the Bridge Deck Repairs and Overlay be
awarded to Thomasson Construction Company for $70,760.90.
Thomasson Construction is an established firm with an excellent reputation
in Colorado. They were highly recommended by the Colorado Department of
Highways for their work on bridge deck rehabilitations .

Belleview Park Tennis Court
Caisson Walls
ACT! ON PROPOSED Award of construction contract for Belleview Park Te nnis Co urt
Caisson Walls
BACKGROUND
Numerous cracks have developed in the a sphalt tennis court surface and parking lot
off Inca Street at Belleview Park. Soil creep and settlement of the unrestrained
fill comprising the subgrade of the tenni s court s and adjacent slopes were cited
as the cause of the tennis courts cracking by a soils consulting engineer hired
to assess the problem. The two alternative methods reco mmend ed by the soils
engineer to control lateral movement, thus c rac k ing , are as f o llows :
1) Construction of a rigid, gravity-type retaining wall approximately
240 feet in length .
2) Construc tion of a series of reinforc ed conc rete c aissons closely spaced
t o a pproximate a retaining wall .
The second alternative has been se lected because of a substantially lower cost
and the ability to restra~n movement t o a degree appropriate for the problem .
The work will involve drilling and installing 62 reinforced concrete caissons
in a row along the west tennis court pathway.
FINANCIAL
Bids for this project were solicited from four recommended drilling and caisson
contractors. Three bids were received as follows:
1) L.M.S. Drilling, Inc. $ 9 ,4 81.00
2) Professional Hole Drilling 11,472 .25

BACKGROUND
In the Spring, 1985, the Englewood Downtown Development Authority decided
to make some landscaping improvements to the 3300-3500 blocks of South
Broadway, similar to the work Brady was planning in front of the new
King Soopers Retail. The City offered the services of the City Staff
to assist the EDDA in the planning, design and construction of thes e
Im provements.
Even though the EDDA is payin g for the cost of the Improvements (design
and construction), to provide for continuity in coordinating the effort,
i t wa s agreed that the City would bid, award and sign the contract f or the
wo rk , on behalf of the EDDA .
FINANCI AL

of the 3300 bl ock ; the eas t and west sides of the 3400 bl ock and the east side

the concrete si dewal k, pla nti ng trees, furnishing and install i ng t r ee
