SUBJECT Award of Contract for Sol ids
Processing Facility Improvements
INITIATED BY William F. Owen PhD P.E. Director of Watteyater Treatment
ACTION PROPOSED Council tg approve and ayud contract fqr constmc•ian qf
Solids Prgceaaina Facility Improvements to Robert McKee Inc of fngleyood, Colo.
INT ROD UCTION: The Wastewater Treatment Department is requesting approval and
award of a construction co ntract to the low bidder (of seven), Robert, McKee, Inc,
5975 South Syracuse Street, Suite 100, Englewood, Colorado 80111, for a sum of
5920,000.00, and authorizing a total expenditu re s limit on this project of
$2,454,000 to cover equirment purchase and other expenses.
BACKGROLrnD: Earlier th is year the ~ity council approved purchase of ce ntri fuge
and ancillary equipment from the City of New York, and the co ncept of renovating
the existing solids processing facility to employ modern, more efficient dewaterinR
equipment. The original estimate for this work was $3,754,000, distributed as
51,014,000 for the centrifuge equipment and associated rehabilitation and ahipping,
$2,500,000 for construction costa nd other associated equipm nt, and $240,000
for conatruc t ion engineering aervicea. We estimate the coa ts for other quip nt
will be leas than $200,000 hence leaving $2,300,000 fo r construction activiti s
out of the o rig inal eatir..ate.
As you will recall, the purpoae of the dewatering facilities is to increaae
salida handlinR capacity and reduce ultimate dispo1al costs. The added d v aterin
equipm nt will reduce trucking require nts from the pre• nt 11 -13 load1 per
day to 2 loads n r i "· We estimat the net effect will be a reduction in
o p ra ing xn n ~• on the o rder of $200,000 per year , re1ulting in a rapid pay -

CONCLUSION/RECOMMENDATION : The low bidder , Robert McKee, Inc . met all the
requirement• of the btd specification• and submitted appropriate inaurance
and bid forma. Baaed on our review of thia firm and their principal subcontract o rs ,
we are quite confident they will do a good job at a fair price.

Award of Purchase of Progressive Cavity Sludge Pumps for
the Solids Processing Facility Improvement
DISCUSSION: The low bidder, ABS Pumps, did not meet specifications because of
excessively high operating speed. After careful review, HDR recommend we not
include the low bidder in further consideration due to excessive wear which would
result from the low-cost, v-belt speed reducer proposed by the low bidder. All
other bidders met specifications, and hence we recommend award to the second
low bidder, NEMO for a sum of $14,410.
RECOMMENDATION: We recommend council award the purchase of two progressive-

Minimum charges both inside and outside the City are Ninety-one Percent (91%)
the flat rate charge for the customer class involved.
(C) Special cases.
( 1) Schools operating on a nine (9) month school year
shall be billed seventy six percent (76%) of the charges wh ich
would normally accrue for similar usage by a residential customer.
(2) Industries, car washes and other establishments where
summer irrigation water is not significant or where seasonal
business fluctuations are more significant than irrigation usage
shall be billed based on annual rather than winter period water usage .
(3) Customers with delivery flow characteristics
significantly different from those of a single family dwelling
shall pay an additional readiness to serve fee based on the following formula:
R=V (.91 x NW) where:
365
R = Annual delivery flow rate characteristics charge
.91 • Readiness to serve portion of 0 and M costs
NW • Customer's annual nonworking days
365 • Number of days in calendar year
V Annual volume charge for wastewater treatment
(4) Other cases. Where the procedures above are not
applicable , or when application of same would work an obvious and
significant injustice to the customer, a rate shall be established
by the Director based on reasonable estimates of proJ cted flow.
(D) If any water or wastes are discharged, or are propo ed to
be discharged to the public sewers, which waters contain the
substances or possess the characteristics enumerated in Subsection
15-5-2(8) above and, in the judgment of the Director of Utilities,
may have a deleterious effect upon the sewage works, processes,
equipment or receiving waters, or which otherwise create a hazard
to life or constttut a public nuisance, the Director shall lao charge the following fe a:
Require paym nt to cover the dd d colt of handltng and

8.34 = conversion factor; one gallon of water to pounds.
UCo = unit charge for AOD (additional oxygen demand) in dollars per pound.
(i) unit charge for BOD: $.0133.
(ii) If COD is less than 3.0, then AOD =(BODS 200).
BODS 200 mg/1, but COD is greater than
SOO/mg/1, then AOD = (COD SOO).
COD chemical oxygen demand strength index in milligrams
per liter (SOO milligrams per liter or over).
BODS = five day biochemical oxygen demand strength index
in milligrams per liter (200 milligrams per liter or over).
UCs = unit charge for SS in dollars per pound.
SS = suspended solids strength index in mill i grams per

200 normal BODS strength in milligrams per liter.
200 normal SS strength in milligrams per liter.
400 • normal COD strength in milligrams per liter.
The application of the above formula provides for a
surcharge for BOD, COD and for SS. If the strength index
of BOD, COD or SS is less than the base number that is
being subtracted from it , then there shall be no surcharge
for that particular category, nor shall there be a credit
given to the total surcharge.
(E) Industrial Cost Recovery (ICR)
1. Industries af fected shall be those i dentified in the
Standard Industrial Classification Manual, (SICM) 1972 as revised,
Divisions A through I , with the specific except io n of those
industries wh ich discharge only nonprocess, segregated domest ic
wastes or wa stes f rom sanitary conveniences. Affected industries

Specific individual rates will be calculated based on the volume
strength and rate of flow in accordance with current federal guide-lines.
Adjustments to individual rates will be made annually or more fre-
quently, whenever evidence is received that a major change in
wastewater volume and/or characteristics has occurred. Payment
will commence within one (1) year of the date of initiation of
service through the Bi-City and/or Englewood Plant.
(F) Restoration of Service
Sewer service shall not be restored until all charges,
including the expense of termination and charge for restoration of
service, shall have been paid.
(G) Collection Procedures
1. Charges Responsibility of Owner.
All fees and charges shall be chargeable against and
payable by the owner of the premises receiving sewer service.
2. Periodic Billing Statements.

shall be liable for all sewer charges for uses on his premises,
which lien or liability may be enforced by the City by action at
law to enforce the lien. In case the tenant in possession of any
premises shall pay the sewer charges, it shall relieve the
landowner from such obligations and lien, but the City shall not be
required to seek payment from any person whomsoever other than the
owner for the payment of sewer charges. No change of ownership or
occupation shall affect the application of this section, and the
failure of any owner to discover that he purchased property against
which a lien for sewer service exists shall in no way affect his
liability for such payment in full. Said delinquent payments, and
the lien created thereby, shall be enforced by assessment upon the
property and premises so served and certification thereof to the
County Treasurer for the collection under and in pursuance as
provided for in this Code.
(I) Disconnection Clause

be r paid at time of reconnection.
2 . When the premises o which such servic is provided are
located without the limits of the City, failure to pay the rates
and charges for tr atment and disposal of sanitary s wage when due
shall b cause for th C1ty Clerk to certify to th County
Commissioners of the county in which said delinquent user's
property is located the charges du and unpaid, on or b fore
Novemb r 1 of each y r, and thereupon and until paid, the same

that this kind of progress will do much to improve programming, which in turn will strengthen

Commission members to receive regular reports of these meetings so as to be better informed

Commissioner Bradshaw indicated she feels the School Board should define their
philosoph i l '~ t 'OIIl'Crll i liB >.tudt•lll l"'ograms.
Bradshaw also stated she feels that, except for Sr. American football, there is no
sports program for middle school and the Jr. American programs should be expanded to in-
elude the 7th and 8th grade students in basketball and volleyball . She stated that due to
Title 1~ it is now required that a sport for girls be offered for each sport offered for
boys. Bradshaw suggested boys football, girls volleyball, and boys and girls basketball be

Concerning the City Council's action of the addition of two youth members to the
Parks and Recreation Co mm is sion, Commissioner Bradshaw rC'Iatcd t·casons why lhrcl' memb ers
of the Council were opposed to this action. She stated that Councilman Bilo felt the youth
members should be appo i nted by the School/City Committee rather than the two School Board
representatives and two City Council representatives. Councilman Higday felt that it was
possible that&the youth members may feel intimidated by tho adult Commission members, while
Councilman Neal was concerned that an item such as a foundation may be too much respons -
ibi I ity for ~omconc in th is ai(C l'atc~c:ory.
ln discussing recruiting procedures for the two youth members, Commissioner Gomes
suggested that Englewood High School Principal Price be contacted in the form of n Jetter
written by Chairman Poole . Gomes suggested that announcements be made over the PA system
when school begins instructing interested students on the procedures for applying for the
positions. The application must include a paragraph explaining the student's reasons for
wanting to serve on the Comm ission and also their 4ualification s. It wa s a grccu that the
announcement should run through September 15, 1983, and that candidates will be interviewed
and selected by the Commis sion pr i or to the October 13 Commission meeting .
With regard to the Commission meeting of May 12, 1983, wherein a motion was made and
passed thut u recommendation be made to City Co un ci l that Urban Edges bo puid lU \ of tho

Mr . McCabe stated they would extract the information from the City books as
they are now, and put the i nformation into their system in Housing Authority/
HUD language. We would then have our information readily available , in
proper form and could submi t timely reports and financial statements acceptable
to HUD.
To ac co111 pl ish th is , i t is bas i cally a mail -in service at the end of each
month. After all business for the month is completed, we send a copy of
t he paperwork to the Sylvester firmand they do all the entering and account-
ing through their computers. This will be done in a format acceptable to
HUD and understandable to us.
If in the future we decided to qo to our own computing system, the Sylvester
firm waul d be approachab 1 e on setting up the paperwork for us. l~r. McCabe
left a s tandard contract with the Exec Dir for Board perusal and decis i on.
Executive Director stated that we would have to get individual responsibilities
cleared with the City, hut in all discussions with rinance, finuncc hu ~ ex-
pre s s ed agreement that fee accounting would be benfic ial to Finance as well
as EHA .
Tom Bu r ns thanked Mr. McCabe for coming and exp r essed EH A'sappreciation for

I I I. SIMON CENTER
Status Report for Simon Center was noted and accepted by the Board. A
discussion ensued on the status of a smoke incident in Simon Center. A
tenant had l eft a rag in the oven after cleaning it, then turned on the
ove n, an d sm oke had permeated the apartment, not set off the alarm, and
affected tenant through smoke inhalation. Tenant was taken to hospital,
checked and released. The Exec Dir explained that smoke alarms had been
checked just a week before and were okay. This particular type of smoke
was of a chemical content which did not set off alarm. The Fire Depart-
me nt checked the alarms after the incident, pronounced them fully opera-
tional and stated that no alarm will cover all smoke, but that our alarms
are the best overall which can be obtained. The staff are following up on
i nforming and educating tenants on alertness to fire hazards.
Waiting list Policy, previously approved by the Board, was examined, noted
a nd accepted by the Board.

some of th e mo vin g costs . They want to use these donations as an IRS tax ~1rit e off and need a l etter from EHA stating the donat i on was for a public

it 1f their a t t or ney and ours could mutually prepare a document which would
be acceptable t o IRS . Exec Dir stated our former attorney K. Al l i n had

Gordon E. Mattox, 3240 South Cherokee Street, was sworn in for testimony.
He said that he has lived at this address since 1978. He said that
he wanted to construct the porch in order to beautify the house and to
aid in snow removal. The steps that already exist would be incorporated
into the porch, and the porch would extend only about 14 inches further
into the front yard than the present steps do. Most of the structure
will be built to the south side. No view will be blocked, the neighbors
have agreed to the construction of the porch and feel that it will
help the looks of the neighborhood.
Mr. Kreiling asked if there is presently a stoop there. Mr. Mattox
said there is. Mr. Kreiling asked if the porch would be covered. Mr.
Mattox said that it would be covered and would have a wrought iron
railing. The Chairman asked if there were any further speakers in favor
of the variance. No one came forward. There were no speakers opposed
to the variance.
BOARD MEMBER HALLAGIN MOVED THAT IN CASE NO. 17-83, GORDON E. MATTOX,
FOR PROPERTY LOCATED AT 3240 SOUTH CHEROKEE STREET, SHOULD BE GRANTED
A VARIANCE PERMITTING A REDUCTION IN THE MINIMUM REQUIRED FRONT YARD

Re: Robert Kurtz -P. Arthur 'l'ague
Janet '!'ague
2220 West Evans Avenue
Gentlemen:
•
• -
Enclosed herewith is a request for a variance on the above property.
This request, however, is merely a conditional one and one which
we seek the Board to act upon only after interpreting its
February 21, 1973, decision.
On that date, the Board, pursuant to a variance request filed by
the owner, authorized the southern portion of this property to be used for the:
"stora~e of inventory and for parking
of vehlcles."
The present applicants agree that this prior decision does not
authorize the storage of automobile bodies and, to the extent
that the operator of the business upon this property has been
utilizing the same for this purpose, JJlat use was unauthorized.
However, for a number of years prior to this date, this property
has been used for the storage of inventory parts, such as axles
and camper tops and, in our vi e w, this use is authorized under
the previous Board decision, .!Q lonl ~ the s torage thereof is
accomplished in a neat and orderly ashion and in such a manner as not to create an eyesore.
This letter, therefore, will constitute a request that this
Board, first , interpret its 1973 decision and, if necessary, to
spell out the materials which, u nder that decision, may be stored u pon t he property .
JUSTIFICATION FOR VARIANCE
This ground was ann xed to the City in 1957. At the time of
i ts annexation, th northern h lf of the property was zon d for
comm r c 1 uses nd th south rn h lf was zon d for r aid nti 1
uses. How v r, the ownership of the prop rty has nev!r b en
"split" and it has always b en used as a single unit.
hen the land w a ann x d to th City, th City m rely
continu d this zoning, which h s nev r b n ch nged. Th noth rn
half is now zon d B-2 and the southern half is zon d R-2-C •
•
I • •
September 14, 1983

However, the City has, through various actions, authorized
the southern half to be used for commerical purposes.
In 1959, a building permit was issued "to rework the present
bui l ding for office and storage of tires. Canopy in front fo r
display." In 1961, a building permit was issued, allowing a
commercial building to be built, which intruded upon, the
southern half and which did not meet off-street parking
requirements, unless the parking was to be placed on the southern
half of the lot. There was also a concrete slab and black-
topping placed in the southern half.
In 1973, the Board granted a specific variance allowing the
storage of inventory and the parking of vehicles on the southern
half.
The applicant leased this property a number of years ago and
has been using the same for the construction, reconstruction and
repair of trucks. He has consistently been storing various
parts, both in sheds and in open storage on the southern half, in
rel i ance upon the past lessee's practice and upon the Board's
prev i ous decision.
Because of these circumstances, appli c ant subm i ts that t he
proper ty and structure, as they now exist, cannot be reasonably
use d without allowing use of the southern half in conjunction
wi t h the use of the northern half--indeed, ther e i s not even any
sepa r a te access. Applicant submits that the requirements of the
ordinance are met.
1 The va lidity o f "s pl i tt i ng" a l ot, f or zon i ng purposes , has
ne v er b een decided i n this case, althoug h many c o ur t s h av e
declared that it is i mprope r to do so .
It is only if this Board d termines that this Bo rd'a d c a on
does not authorize th use requested that tho applic nt a ka to
have an additional variance granted.

Mr. Charles Grimm, Assistant City Attorney, asked to address the Board
concerning the case. He said that the neighbors and Mr. Kurtz and the
City have a delicate situation in this case due to the mixture of
residential and commercial zoning on the same property. A commercial
building was authorized to be constructed into the residential section,
which added to the confusion. He stated that he discussed the matter
with Mr. Criswell, Mr. Kurtz and Mr. Tague (Mrs. Tague's lawyer) on
behalf of Mrs. Romans, and they came to an agreement which would
alleviate the problem on that property and would give better protection
to the surrounding property owners in the residential areas than they
have had in the past. He asked that the Board adopt the agreement,
and if it does so, Mr. Criswell and Mr. Kurtz will drop their application
for interpretation and for a variance. Mr. Grimm submitted the Memorandum
or Agreement to the Board, and a copy follows:
MEMORANDUM OR AGREEMENT
This will serve to confirm the agreement reached between the City
of Englewood ("City"), Janet S. Tague ("Owner") and Robert J. Kurtz

Mr. Grimm said that all of the concerned parties had agreed to this
Memorandum, and Captain Roy O'Steen , represen t ing the Fire Department,
had also agreed. Mr. Grimm said that , while this was not a perfect
solution, it is difficult to solve the problem without rezoning. Without
the agreement, the situation would cont inue as it is now with friction
between the neighbors, Mr . Kurtz , and the City . This agreement would
permit the continued commercial use, and shield the property from the
neighbors. It would limit storage and keep the stored materials neat.
The Fire Department would also be satisfied. Adoption of the agreement
would permit both sides to function.
Chairman Seymour asked if the Board could legally ratify the agreement.
John Criswell, 3780 South Broadway, Mr. Kurtz's attorney, said that h
has recently read the transcripts of January 10 nd February 21, 1973.
Since he has seen the transcripts, he withdraw th request for n
interpretation, because in 1973, Hr. Criswell s id, it is quite clear
that th Board granted authority to stack inventory on this property,
but it did not gr nt the right to store junk or inoperable cars, whi ch

the Planning Commission in 1973, and they refused to rezone the property ,
but the Planning Commission suggested that the whole area be c onsidered
for rezoning by the Zoning staff. Mr. Criswell said he was hopeful, that
since this is an area of mixed use, a portion of the area would be rezoned.
Mr. Criswell said that this agreement was the best that could be worked out at this time.
Mr. Grimm said that Mr. Gonzales and Mr. Kelley have read the agreement,
and they would like to speak to the Board.
Dennis Kelley, 2393 West Warren Avenue, came forward and was sworn in.
He stated that he had no objection t o the agreement, but does not want
the area rezoned. If Mr. Kurtz will keep the place neat, the neighbors
can live with the agreement, Mr. Kelley believed.
Mr. Rudolfo Gonzales, 2195 West Adriatic Avenue, came forward and was
sworn in. He stated that the usage which the property has had in the
past was upsetting. He was unsure if the agreement was legal; but if
Mr. Kurtz will abide by the agreement, and if the road were dedicated,
it would improve the situation. Mr. Grimm said that this agreement would
not affect the dedication of the road. Mrs. Tague, through her attorney,
indicated that they would approve this agreement as it is now. They
would be willing to discuss the dedication independent of this agreement.
Mr. Criswell stated that when they spoke with the Tague attorney, he sa id
that at such time as the City has acquired all the other dedicated
right-of-way of that street to the south, Mrs. Tague would also dedicate
her half. That was put in this agreement, and at the suggestion of the
City Attorney it was taken out of the agreement fo r legal purpos s.
Mr. Ferguson asked whether vehicles csn be dismantled or stored ou t s ide.
Mr. Criswell said that Mr. Kurtz is no longer dismantling vehicles . Any
vehicles o n the property will be operable. He wi ll sto re camp r o r
pickup bed s there, but in Mr. Criswell's opinion, Mr. Kurt z has no right
to store a uto bodies there. Mr. Kurtz has acquired ane th r ar a fo r th
dismantling of v hicles . Mr. Ferguson said that over 8 p riod of y ara,
the und r tanding of the term may c h nge, nd that h would l ik t o

Mr. Kr ilin~ said that would complicat the 8 re ment. Mr. Cri 11 s id
th y had no objection to includin that cl us , but w uld give his as ur nee
that Mr. Kurtz und rstood that th re w s no justification for storin

The Chairman stated that the Public Hearing for Case Number 16-83 was
open. The applicant, John T. Daniel, was requesting the variance for
2000 West Iliff Avenue. The Chairman asked that the Staff identify the request.
Mr. Yenglin stated that the applicant is requesting a reduction in lot
area from 6,000 square feet to 5,364 square feet in order to divide this
parcel into two separate two-family building sites. This is a variance
of the Comprehensive Zoning Ordinance, Section 22.4-7 c -Minimum Area of Lot.
John Daniel, 5946 South Sycamore Street, Littleton, came forward and wa s
sworn in. He stated that this case had been continued from the month
of August. He has met with some citizens of northwest Englewood, and
applied the design criteria to his proposal, as he was requested to do
by the Board at the August meeting. Using the R-2-C Special Permit
System evaluation; his score was positive, and the citizens with whom
he met believed that the project would be compatible with that area.
Mr. Dennis Kelley, 2393 West Warren Avenue, had been previously s worn in. He
described the project as two buildings which look like single-family units
but are two-family units. These units will be rentals, but they wil l look
good , and be something that the neighbors can live with.
There were no further speakers in favor of the variance, and no speaker
against the variance c ame forward. Chairman Seymour asked that the Staff
report be made part of the record.
Mrs. Romans thanked the ci tizens of northwest Englewood fo r meeting with the applicant.
The Ch airman closed the Public Hearing .

Mrs. Dawson voted "yes" because the neighborhood agreed, and there was no opposition.
Mr. Gage voted "yes" because the Northwest Citizens Committee agreed to
the design. The lot is doing no one any good undeveloped, and this
will help the neighborhood.
Mr. Ferguson voted "yes" because the development will do justice to
all the area, will improve it, and will do no harm to the people in the area.
Mr. Seymour voted "yes" because the applicant received a positive score
on the design criteria, and the neighbors agreed.

The Chairman declared that Case No. 23-83 was open and asked the Staff
to identify the request. Mr. Yenglin stated that the applicants, Econ
0 Wash Laundry and Freeman Signs, are requesting a variance for 3491 South
Downing, to permit the total sign area to be increased from 20 square
feet to 40 square feet, and the sign face area to be increased from 10
square feet to 40 square feet. This is a variance from the Sign Code
of 1982, Section 22.7-9 b 4-Other Lawful Nonresidential Uses.
Philip C. Grimm, 648 Washington Circle, Englewood, came forward and wa s
sworn in. He said that his company, Freeman Signs, contracted to build
a new sign for the owners of Econ 0 Wash for another laundry they own
on 38th Avenue, and they thought that they could use the old sign for
the laundry on 3491 South Downing Street. They were told that this sign
was legal in the City of Englewood. It was discovered, however, when
they applied for a permit, that this laundry i s a nonconforming use; and
therefore, the sign is not 1 gal on that building. This business is in
the R-3, High Density Reaidenc zon district and is bordering the B-2,

Upon a vote, there were six votes in favor, with Mr. Brown abstaining,
and the Chairman stated that the motion was carried. The Chairman
asked that the Staff report be made part of the record.
The members gave their findings as follows:
Mr. Kreiling stated that he voted in the affirmative because the new
sign would be placed flat against the building, not protruding as does the existing sign.
Mr. Hallagin voted "yes" because there are special circumstances in the
location of the sign. There was no opposition.
Mrs. Dawson voted "yes" be cause the sign on the building will be much
better because the trees block the sign that is there. There was one letter of approval.
Mr. Gage voted "yes" because the applicant has a hardship with the way
in which the building lies, and the trees on the north side of the
building do block the view of the sign.
Mr. Ferguson voted "yes" because the applicant f ulfill ed the four
requirements. It will not injure the property , or alter the c harac ter
of the area. There are special circumstances and it wi ll no t weaken the Sign Code.
Mr. Seymour voted "yes" because he liked the new s ign better than the
protruding sign; there was no opposition; and there wa s a s pecia l
c ircumstance in thi s c ase.
The Chairman stated that Mr. Grimm could c ontac t the Building Division for his permit.

square feet per unit; Section 22.4-7 g -Minimum Frontage of Lot, from
25 feet per unit to 22.3 feet per unit; Section 22.4-7 j -Total Sideyard,
from 14 feet per building to 10 feet per building; and Section 22.5-5 h,
to allow one of the two required parking spaces in the required front
yard. The Chairman said that he had proof of posting and legal notice
of the Public Hearing. Mrs. Romans said that she wants to emphasize that
these buildings will not be triplexes. Each building will have two units,
and each unit will be sold. They are not three-unit attached structures.
Dennis Niernberg, 2750 South Shoshone Street, Englewood, was sworn in
for testimony. He stated that this application was a continuation of
the project for which he received a variance four months before on
West Vassar Avenue. These units have the same front footage. He plans
on varying the front elevation of each unit in texture, color and
material so that each unit has its own identity. They will preserve the
continuity and style. These units are family units, which could help
open the elementary school in the area.
Mr. Hallagin asked if Mr. Niernberg had considered the need for the
utility poles to be moved. Mr. Niernberg said that he had been working
with Public Service, Mountain Bell and the City, and the developers
and City are in the process of discovering what the cost will be to
move the poles, and how the cost would be distributed for moving the
power lines. Progress is being made toward obtaining utility easements
so the poles can be moved to the back of the units. Mr. Ferguson said
that the street is not expected to be paved until 1990. Mr. Niernberg
said that the City will try to keep down the cost to the developers and
the people who bought property prior to the developers' coming in. There
would be an improvement tax assessed to the owners of the units when
the paving goes in. Mr. Niernberg said that he would be putting in
curb and gutter with these units, which will help keep the road base
intact. Other developers are doing the same thing, so the street will
have an identity. The curb nd gutter will be finished prior to the finishing of the units.
Mr. F rguson sk d who would pay for the improvement district if the
units did not complet ly s 11. Mr. Niernberg said it would be wh oever
own d th property. Mr. Kr iling asked if th new own ra would b told
upon th s le of th unit , that th r is an improv nt district plsnn d.
Mr. iernberg st ted there will b eith r a 1 tter or a r nt with the
purcha era of the units so th y will know to expect an aa eas~nt. Th
assess nt can be paid ove r a period of 12 ye ra. Th City has encourag d

There were no further speakers in favor of the variance.
Mr. Jim Beaver, 2243 West Hillside Avenue, presented a petition containing
26 signatures of neighboring property owners opposing the granting of
the variance. He submitted pictures showing the parking along West
Vassar Avenue. He said that his biggest complaint is that even with
vacancies along West Vassar Avenue, there is a parking problem there,
and West Hillside Avenue is not as wide as West Vassar Avenue. People
will be forced to park on the street with the reduced parking, which,
Mr. Beaver said, he knew about, although Mr. Niernberg had not mentioned
it to the Board. Mr. Beaver said there were few owners in the area on
West Vassar Avenue, so no one opposed the first variance.
Mr. Hallagin asked where the park is in relation to West Hillside Avenue.
Mr. Beaver said it was on West Vassar Avenue, two blocks away from Hillside.
Mr. Seymour said it was only one block away. Mr. Beaver said it was two
sets of houses away. Mr. Ferguson asked how many cars each unit would
have. Mr. Beaver said that he assumed each would have at least two
cars, and the proposed parking would make it difficult to use both parking spaces.
The Chairman asked if there were any further speakers in opposition to the variance.
Stanley Rhodus, 2323 West Harvard Avenue, came forward and was sworn in.
Mr. Rhodus said that the applicant proposes to use 2 ~ sites to build
3 doubles. Mr. Niernberg purchased the property for the price of land
for a double, and wants a larger profit. He said if we keep reducing
the requirements, the situation gets worse and worse. He objected to
the use of the term "attached double". A double is a double and a single
is a single, he said. Mr. Niernberg will sell a double as two singles,
and a single should have 6,000 square feet. Mr. Rhodus said that Mr.
Niernberg would b using the front yard etb ck for parking of cars, which
is not allowed. There is congestion on the stre ts now. Most owners
h ve more than 2 ~ v hicles per unit. The Board, h said, should not
permit sellin doubles s single units. Thi 1 not feasibl • When

Linda Puryear, 2320 West Harvard Avenue, was sworn in for testimony .
She stated that this variance would harm the neighborhood. She will
have to look out her window and see three-family dwellings behind her.
She said that h~r dogs will have more room to play than these c hildren
will have. On West Vassar Avenue there is a park right across the
street, so she did not oppose that variance, but no responsible parent
would permit children to play in a park without supervision, as would
be the case for residents on West Hillside Avenue, since Hillside is not within sight of the park.
There were no further speakers in opposition. The Chairman offered Mr.
Niernberg an opportunity for rebuttal . Mr. Niernberg asked to see
the petition and pictures entered as exhibits. He said that the City
requires two off-street parking spaces. He had originally planned to
provide the second space on the side of the buildings, but the citizens
from that area, with whom he had met previously, and the City preferred
the present proposal to increase the amount of landscaping . He stated
that he will be landscaping the units, which was not done by o ther
developers. In his design, he allowed for one on-street parking
space between each greenspace. He said that the pictures showing the
cars on West Vassa r Avenue represent visitors to the park. At lunch
time, the who le st reet is full of cars belonging to people eating lunch in the park.
Mr. Niernberg said that he was planning to sell the units individually
and ob tained sewer and water taps on each side at a cost of $35 00, so
that they can be sold as singles. He said that if the Bo a rd required
it, he would add a concrete pad beside the driveway. He said that he
was not requesting a variance for percentage of open space. Areas for
children are provided in the back yard. They wil l be similar to the
existing units in the area. The four units planned fo r Hill side are
similar to the ones on Vassar, but hav b tter st reet appeal, and they
re a better design than the others in th rea. He said that the
Zoning Ordin nee requires a minimum of 5 feet on each sid for sideyard
setbacke, with total of 14 feet. H propo e s t o match the fiv f t

Mr. Kreiling said that he had tried to follow the R-2-C SPS concept and
had to give up. Mrs. Romans said that all that is required is a positive
score. Chairman Seymour asked that the Checklists be included in the
Staff report in the future. He asked that the Staff report be included
as part of the record.
Mr. Kreiling said that no paved street is planned until 1990. Mr s .
Romans said that the City Council told the Engineering Department to
project every unpaved street in Englewood into a Paving District, and
t o assign a priority and date to each street. Hillside is scheduled
for 1990. The City has tried to get right-of-way in the northwest a rea
for about 25 years, and all but five owners on West Hillside Ave nue have
dedicated the right-of-way. The property owners can request a Paving
District prior to 1990, should they choose to do so .
Mr. Seymour asked about the utility poles. Mrs. Romans sa id that City
Engineer Diede is working with Mountain Bell and Public Service to get
the cost. When a f ixed cost rather than an estimate is established, they
will decide how to distribute the cost. This must be done because the
Fire Department needs access to the area. The City is working on the
problem, whi ch is not just Mr. Niernberg's problem, but that of all the
re s idents and developers along We s t Hillside Avenue.
Mr. Kreiling said there are several factions in th nei hborhood. H
asked why some people were excluded from th Citizens Committ Mr
Romans said that over a year ago the City sent two letter to all th
property owner s in the neighborhood regarding a change in th zonin
regulations, and inviting the owners to meetings. The p ople wh o worked
with the City developing the s tandard s of th R-2-C SPS met at least once
a month for over a year and the people wh o attended those me tin s are
the people referred to as the "Northwest Englewood Citizens Committe ";
and thes are the people wh o have been revi wi ng th plans. They have
also trended Planning Commiss ion meetings and made the presentation
on the propo d R-2-C SPS. Councilmen Fizpatirck, Bilo and Brad sh w

Upon a vote, all six members voted in the affirmative. The Chairman
ruled that the variance was approved. He told Mr. Niernberg that
he co uld obtain his building permits when the utility poles were moved.
The members gave their findings as follows:
Mr. Kreiling said that the residents of the area wh o had spent time
working for the development of design criteria approved this variance, so he voted "yes".
Mr. Hallagin voted "yes" because there were two places to park as required
by the Zoning Ordinance. There is a nice back yard; there is landscaping
planned, and development will improve the neighborhood.
Mrs. Dawson said that the meetings over the last year should have been
attended by all of the neighbors if they were interested in the plans
for that area. The parking problems can be worked out after the poles are moved.
Mr. Brown voted "yes" because 5 units could have been built without a
variance; the project will bring homeowners into the area, and Mr.
Niernberg does very good work.
Mr. Ferguson voted "yes" because it complies with most of the minimums
for the R-2-C zone. It will improve the area.
Mr. Seymour said that Mr. Niernberg has already proved himself, and has
been very coope rative, and for those reasons he voted "yes".

Mr. Brady had submitted two letters of approval from the neighbors. He
provided s et s of p lans for the Board, and the Board discussed whether
two feet c ou l d be spared from the plans. Mr. Brady said that similar
units have been buil t in the 3700 block on South Elati Street.
Mr. Brown a s ked what kind of material would be used in the building.
Mr. Brad y said that it would be Textured 1-11 reversed backboard. Mr.
Hallagin said that everything else in the neighborhood is frame. Mr.
Brady said that he feels this is a good plan for a good neighborhood.
Mr. Ferguson said that other homes in the neighborhood are at variance
with the minimum sideyard requirement. There were no further speakers
in f avor o f the variance. There were no speakers opposed to the variance.

from 12,000 square feet to 9,375 square feet in order to construc t four
townhouses. This is a variance from the Comprehensive Zoning Ordinance,
Section 22.4-5 c, Minimum Area of Lot, and Section 22.4-5 i -Minimum Frontage of Lot.
Earl Wilson, a representative of Mr. Simms, 43 00 South Lowell Boulevard
came forward and was sworn in. The Chairman stated that he was not named
on the application and could not represent the applicant without his
permission. The applicant, Arthur C. Simms, 5805 Bluesage Drive,
Littleton, came forward and was sworn in. He stated that he had asked
Mr. Wilson to represent him.
Mr. Wilson stated that they were proposing to tear down the existing
house which was built in 1912. This is in a R-2 Zone District, which
would permit 3.2 units to be considered. They propose to develop
townhouse condominiums to be sold as single-family units. He said they
met all the other requirements for this zone district including two
parking spaces per unit and SO % open space. They contacted the neighbors
and Mrs. King asked for a six foot privacy fence, and they had agreed to
build one. The neighbors discussed the gravel alley, and Mr. Simms and
his company stated that they would pave the entire alley if the City
will prorate the o ther portions of the alley to the other owners.
They will do landscaping and provide a sprinkler system before any
Certificates of Occupancy are issued. These units will not be rentals.
If the variance is granted, the applicant will have to go before the
Planning Commission for Planned Development.
Mr. Ferguson stated that the Utility Department stated that there could
not be separate water and sewer taps with the proposed plan. Mr. Wilson
agreed, and said that a homeowner's association would be required .
Mr. S ymo ur asked how people would be prevented from entering Highwa y 285
f rom th alley. Mr. Wilso n said it is presently blocked off. H ask d
if th Lim ited Livin units would be using the alley. Mr s . Roman s aid
they would not. Mr. Fer uson sked if thy could requir a cl r vi w

and worked with the neighbors. Mr. Monte stated that in his opinion,
these units are the best that have been proposed for the neighborhood.
There may, he admitted, be some problems with the alley. He stated that
he is very much in favor of paving the alley, and understands that he
will have to pay his share for the paved alley. Mr. Ferguson stated
there there would be a problem with snow on the alley. Mr. Simms said
that through the homeowners' association, alley maintenance could be
obtained with the participation of the neighbors.
There were no further speakers in favor of the variance. There were
no speakers in opposition to the variance. The Staff report was made
part of the record. The Public Hearing was closed.
BOARD MEMBER BROWN MOVED THAT IN CASE NO. 26-83, ARTHUR C. SIMMS BE GRANTED
A VARIANCE FOR PROPERTY AT 3550 SOUTH DOWNING STREET, PERMITTING A REDUCTION
IN THE MINIMUM LOT FRONTAGE FROM 100 FEET TO 75 FEET AND A REDUCTION IN
THE MINIMUM LOT AREA FROM 12,000 SQUARE FEET TO 9,375 SQUARE FEET IN ORDER
TO CONSTRUCT FOUR TOWNHOUSES. THIS IS A VARIANCE FROM THE COMPREHENSIVE
ZONING ORDINANCE, SECTION 22.4-5 c -MINIMUM AREA OF LOT, AND SECTION
22.4-5 i, MINIMUM FRONTAGE OF LOT.
Board Member Ferguson seconded the motion.
Upon a vote all six members voted in favor of the motion, and the
Chairman ruled that the variance was GRANTED. He told the applicant that
he could proceed with the Planned Development process.
The members gave their findings as follows:
Mr. Kreiling said that the increase in density is questionable due to
the alley, but the neighbors are cooperatin , and th City may be able
to help. He suggest d the building of a cul-d -ac t the end of the
alley, using any available public right-o f-wa y. The lot coverage is
within range, s the Zoning checkl ist shows, for th lot coverage.

affordable. Mr. Atkins stated that the United States has three major
manufacturers of solar cells; a solar cell is co nversion of sunlight to
electrical energy. Mr. Atkins discussed available voltage for installa-
tion, and the need for storage bat teries in connection with solar energy.
Mr. Atkins noted that Arco Corporation is now manufacturing solar cells and
have installed a solar facility in Southern California; this firm is
generating, on a sunny day, 1,000,000 watts per day. With the tax breaks
given by the state and federal government, this firm has paid for the
sola r installation within the fir s t year of operation. Mr. Atkins pointed
out that the number of solar cells manufactured has doubled each year since
1977. In 1983, the manufacturing capability is 20 megawatts in the world.
Mr. Atkins stated that this will increase annually until 1990 when the pro-
jected manufacture of solar cells will be 5,000 one million watt s of solar cells annually.
Mr. Atkins discussed the cost of the typical electrical service per kilowatt
vs. a kilowatt of photovoltaic energy. Mr. Atkins noted that electrical energy
in this area is least expensive of anywhere in the United States, and dis-
cussed the decrease in cost of solar energy since the mid-sixties. He
stated that if the decrease in cost is a continuing trend, solar energy will
become an economic reality and be very attractive to homeowners.
Storage facilities and capacities for solar energy were discussed by Mr.
Atkins. Mr. Atkins also discussed materials used in the manufacturing
process of solar cells and storage facilities. Mr. Atkins noted that code
requirements are very strict regarding subs tances used in the manufacture
of electronic systems, and the National Electric Code now has standards
that manufacturers mu s t meet.
Mr. Atkins discussed a Japanese method of manufacturing solar cells on a
mylar film, which cells ar used in small calculators, watches, etc. Th
Japanese are also working on a solar storage system, which could b at-
tach d to th top o f a sh d, nd the power used to recharge lawn mowers,
tc. It is stimat d that this system would be available befor Christmas , 1983.
Mr. Atkins stat d that h f lt on of th things that the Commission will
have to consid r •s th matter of solar access. If someon wanted to in-
stall solar panels on th ir hous , th re should b som m ns to ssure th t
ccess to th sunlight 1 maintained. H suggested that p rhaps regulations
could b impo d that tructur a could not b r c d th t would shad the
sol r p n ls on an ighboring prop rty, or that tr es could not b planted

Mrs. Becker asked how the solar energy would work in a single-family house
where there is "alternating current ." Mr. Atkins stated that a converter
would be used, there are many volt sizes available. Mrs. Becker then in-
quired as to the size of s torage facility that would be needed to provide
solar energy from one day to th e next. Mr. Atkins stated that research on
the solar storage facilities is very intensive at this time. Mr. Atkins
discussed the use of solar systems with a back-up system available by
Public Service. Mr. Atkins stated that the actual space to be used for
storage facilities would be very small; however, it should be remote from
the interior of the residence.
Mr. Tanguma asked how many days per year solar energy could be used in
Colorado. Mr. Atkins stated an average of 300 days per year.
Mr. McBrayer asked how the utility company could be prevented from penalizing
those people who use solar energy. He stated that he discussed with a PSC
representative, and this individual indicated that persons using solar energy
would be "tagged" or "sta rred" on the comp uter, and that the charge for the
back-up energy would be very expensive. Mr. Atkin s stated that the major
utility companies provide the majority of their energy to industrial use,
and that single-family residence use makes up less than 10% of their cus-
tomer use. Mr . Atkins stated that he understood the major power companies
would prefer to get out of residential power service because it is not cost
effective for the utility company.
Mr. Allen asked if any of the solar energy systems were suitable to use in
Colorado without a back-up system . Mr. Atkins stated that most users of
solar energy systems in remote areas have a small generator as a back-up
system. Mr. Atkins suggested that in the future, the utility company may
purchase some of the power generated by the solar systems from individuals.
Mr. Atkins then discussed a court case regarding the sale of privately
generated power, and the need for the major utility company to protect their lines.
Mrs. B cker st ted that she has been concerned about olar access for many
years, and at some point in the very near future, she b lieves the Commission
should con ider sol r access regulations.

the problem is primarily one of education; he stated that he does not
be lieve the general home owner is aware of the necessity and requirement
o f obtaining permit s and the follow-up inspections from the Building Depart-ment.
Mr. McBrayer stated that as a contractor, he feels a great deal of the
reluctanc e to obtain permits stems from the delays the contractor may ex-
perience in the various building departments before a permit is issued.
He stated that he felt Englewood is an exception and tries to cut down on
the time between application and issuance, but in some departments, it can
be a several day delay. This is a cost factor to the contractor. Mr.
Atkins agreed that some departments do have a considerable delay in issuance
of permits. He stated that the Englewoorl Building Department does try to
approve permits on a daily basis, and believes that the department has a
pretty good record regarding plan checks and permits.
Mr. Venard stated that he recently took out a permit for two panel solar
system, and paid $40 for the permit; he also paid $43 use tax estimate, which may be refunded.
Mr . Tanguma a s ked what it c osts to process a permit. Mr. Atkins stated that
he did not know the cost . Mr. McBrayer pointed out that a permit for a fen ce
i s $15 , and that it may cost more than th is t o process that particular permit;
however , a permit for a hou se may cost well in excess of $1,000 and take about
the same amount of time to process. He stated that he is of the opinion that
it evens out. Dis cussion e n sued. Mr. Atkins stated that he did not know
whether the Building Department shows a profit, but estimated that it is
"about break even."
Mr. Atkins stated that he would be happy to report back to the Comm is s ion
after th e Octob r seminar in Bou lde r if they would so d sir e . Mrs. Becker
asked that Mr. Atkins b placed on th agenda to repo rt to the Commission.

November 15th. Mrs. Romans stated that the number of requests has been
decreased from previous years, but several have been previously requested.
Mrs. Romans stated that she discussed the requests with Public Works Di-
rector Waggoner, and also contacted the Cherry Hills Village and Sheridan
governments in an effort to coordinate requests.
The intersection of Dartmouth and Santa Fe Drive was discussed. Mrs, Becker
asked if the railroad tracks were to be moved closer together. Mrs. Romans
stated that she had not seen the design of the intersection and improvements
along the Santa Fe Corridor. Mr. McBrayer asked if there was any way the
Commission could get a copy of the proposed Santa Fe Corridor improvements.
Mrs. Romans stated that she would invite Public Works Director Waggoner to
discuss the design with the Commission.
Mrs. Romans reviewed improvements requested on U.S. 285, which include the
one-way couplet with U.S. 285 and West Ithaca Avenue, the improvement of the
drainage system between Downing and Pearl Streets, and improvement of the
U. S. 285/South University Boulevard intersection.
Mr. Allen asked what our chances were of getting these projects approved
and done. Mrs. Romans discussed the process to be followed in getting the
requests to the Stat Highway Commission.
Mrs. Becker asked about the request on Belleview Avenue. Mrs. Romans stated
that this is a new request. She noted that properties to the west of Broadway
on the south side of Belleview will be developing in the very near future.
One of the sites which is in Littleton is being proposed for residential de-
velopment with 100+ units; the f ir-grounds will develop, as will the property
just to the w st of K-Mart. Th Highway Department is recommending that
turning movements on B lleview Avenu b restricted to right in and right
out. Mrs. Romans qu tion d that th turning restrictions --right in and
right out only --along B ll view Avenu will b pr ctic 1 and workable.

Mr. Allen stated that ano the r intersection with severe dips is at Downing
a nd Hampden Avenue. Mrs. Becker stated that there is also a bad dip on South Downing at Jeffers on.
Mr. McBrayer complimented Traffic Engineer Plizga on his efforts to improve the traffic flow on U. S. 285.
Mr. Venard suggested that striping be painted on Oxford Avenue between
Broadway and Santa Fe, and pointed out that there is a severe problem at
Broadway and Oxford where there are no marked lanes , and motorists try to
drive straight across Broadway from both lanes rather than the driver in the inside lane making a left-tum.
Mrs. Becker asked if there were other comments.
Carson moved:
Stoel seconded:
The Planning Commission recommend the following work pro-
jects to City Council to be included in the 1984-1985 State
Highway Work Program; the improvement of the Quincy/Broadway
intersection by alleviation of the dips on East and West
Quincy is to be included if it is determined that the work
can be done under this project.

V. PUBLIC FORUM.
There was no audience present.
VI. CITY ATTORNEY'S CHOICE.
There was no representative from the City Attorney's Office present.
VII. DIRECTOR'S CHOICE.
Mrs. Romans stated that the Commission had asked the staff to determine what
restrictions are placed on the operation of barber and beauty shops in a
residence by other gen c ies. The Uniform Plumbing Code has no regulations
and Tri-County Health and the Co nsumer Protection Division have no r gulatio ns
either. However, th e Stat e Bo rd of Barbers and Cosmetology requires that
if a barber o r be auty shop requ ts lic ensing in a private ho e, th home
must b in a proper zon e d is tric t, and th shop must be s eparate fro the
l iving quart r s with ita own ba throom and a separate outside entranc e. This
is contrary t o th p r ov i iona of th Co mpr hensiv Zoning Ordinanc e f o r a

Mrs. Romans stated that the R-3, High-Density Residence District, and R-4,
Residential-Professional District are to be reviewed. There are no cases
slated for consideration of the Commission on October 18th, and if the Com-
mission wants, these two districts may be reviewed that evening. This met
with the approval of the Commission.
Mrs. Romans noted that there are several cases which will be corning before
the Commission, but actual applications and paper work has not been submitted to the staff at this point.
Mrs. Romans stated that the Condominium Conversion Ordinance will become effective on November 5th.
Swedish Medical Center has extended an invitation to the Commission members
to attend a breakfast meeting on November 2 at 7:30 A. M.
The meeting with the Littleton Planning Commission has been postponed until sometime in November.
The Landscaping Ordinance is at the City Attorney's office in final form.
Mrs. Romans stated that there were two changes made following the work session
of the staff with the Ci ty Council: The City Council asked that all zone
districts be required to provide landscaping, and the amount to be contributed
to th e Fine Art s/Landscaping fund in lieu of actual landscaping was reduced
to 1/2% value of the construction cost.
Mr. McBrayer stated that he is very oppos d to the R-1-A, R-1-B, and R-1-C
Districts being included in the landscaping requirements. He noted that
the Commission considered this matter t length, and made the decision many
times that the single-f mily districts not be included, and somebody exercised
th ir prerogative to ch ng the work of the Commission. Mr. McBray r stated
that h takes offence to th fact that the proposed ordinance has b en
changed nd ltered, nd th Commission won't s e the final copy . Mrs.
8 ck r pointed out that the ordin nc was chang d at the direction of the
City Council, and that this is th ir pr rogativ Discussion nau d. Mrs.
Ro ns stat d that s veral of the City Councilm n had stat d ri ht from th
b inning that they lt the ordinanc should apply to all zon districts.
Mrs. 8 ck r stat d that sh und ratood one of the Council n had stated h
didn 't v n w nt to 1 ok at the ordinance unless th aingle-fami ly districts w r tn luded.

Mrs. Romans pointed out that the expansion of the parking structure has
always been the intent of the Medical Center; it was part of the original
plan, but they were not prepared to do it at that time. She pointed out
that the "footprint" and ingress/egress points have already been approved
and set by the Commission and by the construction of the structure.
The purpose of the Commission's review of parking lots was discussed.
Mr. Carson asked about the Anderson property south of U. S. 285, and
whether the development will take place. Mrs. Romans stated that they
are still working on their plans.
Mrs. Becker stated that she would like to discuss the possibility of a
planning session to work on goals and objectives for the Commission for
the next year or so. She asked if the Commission wanted to do this again.
She suggested that perhaps this could be done some evening when the agenda
is limited, or on a Saturday morning devoted to just this topic.
Mr. Stoel suggested that members of the Commission be asked to bring ideas
to the next meeting. Mr. McBrayer suggested that it be noted on the agenda.
Mrs. Becker suggested that this might be done at the first meeting in
November.

Several meetings have been held among these coordinators, Abo-Gude
Architects, and interested merchants and owners.
A number of renderings have been, and are being, prepared for those
individuals desiring to participate in the program. One loan applica-
tion has been submitted thus far, and several businesses are developing

3601 South Logan Street -Service Station.
Due to the unwillingness of this property owner to negotiate for its sale to
the Urban Renewal Authority for use in the Little Dry Creek Flood Control
Program, Urban Renewal Authority Attorney Benedetti filed an eminent domain suit
with the Arapahoe County District Court. Prior to the hearing for immediate
possession, the attorneys for the defendants (Mr. Harold Sales, owner; his
lessees, and the County Treasurer) stipulated (agreed) to the Authority's
acquisition of the property upon the deposit of the appraised value with the
Court. This deposit was made and ownership was obtained by the Authority.
A hearing must now be requested by the defendants to determine the full
value the Authority must pay for the property.
Property Acquisition -East of Broadway.
At its recent budget retreat, City Council decided to provide the Urban Re-
newal Authority with funds to purchase the properties east of Broadway which
are needed for the Little Dry Creek flood control improvements. These
moni s will be transferred from the Public Improvement Fund to the Authority.
Appraisals for these properties have been completed and reviewed by

CHY. MANAGE~'S DWCE
.ENGlEWOOD
It has been a privi"lege for me to serve on the Engle-
wood Public Library Advisory Board for the past two and
one half years. However, because of personal and profes-
sional responsibilities, I am tendering ay resignation as
of this date. Conflicts in time and dutiea would make it
impossible to attend meetings in the foreseeable future.
The co-unity of Englewood is truly fortunate to be
served by an excellent director and staff as well as a
sincerely concerned citizena group. The future growth and
conaiatently hi&h standarda are guaranteed because of the
people who serve the library in both profeasional and vol-
unteer roles.
Please consider me a "friend" of the library and a
grateful citizen.
Sincerely,

INITIATED BY City Manager
SUBJECT EASEMENT FOR SOUTH PLATTE
RIVER IMPROVEMENT S
ACT I ON PROPOSED Approve permanent e asement for South Platte River Improvement s
BACKGROUND & INTRODUCTION:
Several years ago, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers began planning the 100-year flood
improvements on the South Platte River through the cities of Englewood, Littleton,
and Sheridan. Those plans have been designed,and the first stage of the project is
about to begin. This first stage includes two drop structures upstream of Oxford
Avenue, a control bed structure north of Ox ford, and bank stabilization from Oxford
Avenue to Bear Creek along the Englewood Golf Course.
In order for the Corps of Engineers to start this project, it is the responsibility
of the Colorado Water Conservation Board to acquire all easements and right-of-way.
The Board has authorized Stan Dial to pursue the land acquisition, and he has con-
tacted us concerning a permanent eas ment needed along the golf course (Information
attached.).
As you may recall, th City of Englewood is using xc vated material from th Little
Dry Creek Detention Pond project to rebuild the berm along the South Platte River so
the Corps of Engineers can place the rock stabilization. Du to the timing probl
in excavation at the detention pond and the Corps' d lay in starting their project,
had to stockpile 18,000 cub c yards of embankment material at the golf course.
I! the material w re o be placed long the river now, it may get washed away before
the corps could pu heir roc on top. Now there will be additional costs to eov
this material to th river's ed nd I uld sugqest hat th Corps ot Engin era
and/or the Color do ater Cons rvatlon Board be responsible tor pl cing and co~rp ct-
ing th~• material a a t .. tha tits into th ir construction ach dule.

FROM: Gary R. Diede, Director of
SUBJECT: EASEMENT FOR SOUTH PLATTE RIVER NEAR GOLF COURSE
With regard to the memo I sent you dated August 15, 1983, Stan Dial has
provided a new easement agreement for our review. Basically, it removes
the indemnity clause as required by the Attorney General's office. The
legal description has not changed and is attached to the new agreement.
I will still need the City Attorney's comments, City Council approval
procedure and time schedule with emergency clause if an ordinance is
necessary, and the expected payment for the easement.

TO: CITY MANAGfJfS LJ f FICE ~~ Andy McCown, City Manager ENGLEWOOD
Gary R. Diede, Director of Engineering Services FROM:
SUBJECT: EASEMENT FOR SOUTH PLATTE RIVER NEAR GOLF COORSE
The U. S. Army Corps of Engineers is proposing bank stabilization improve-
ments along the South Platte River from Oxford to Bear Creek. As part of
the project, the State Water Conservation Board is responsible for
acquiring the easements from landowners to accomplish this work. Attached
is an easement agreement prepared by them for the City to sign. The legal
description was prepared by our department and will serve the needs of
the Corps of Engineers for construction and placing of rock along the
river bank.
I would ask: 1) how you would like to proceed through City Council to
get the easement approved, 2) Will Council expect more than $10 for
15 acres of easement? 3) Will you please ask the City Attorney for his
comments on the easement agreement?
This easement is important because the Corps will not proceed with the
bank stabilization until the easement is acquired. We have already decided
to hold up placement of the detention pond material until the Corps can
give a definite date for placing the rock along the bank.

Dear Gary,
This letter is written as a follow-up to our conversation regarding
the plans for the rechannellzatlon of the South Platte River by the
U. S. Army Corps of Engineers, who are hopeful of awarding a contract
yet this fall for phase one which will be on each side of as well as
under the bridge on Oxford Avenue.
Enclosed you will find a revised Easement For River Rechannelization
Improvements which is essentially the same as the draft I gave you
several weeks ago with two exceptions. First, the attorney general's
office says the state cannot indemnify another party and, therefore,
that paragraph was removed. Secondly, the paragraph that we discussed
regarding the performance of normal maintenance was added.
You indicated during our last conversation that you felt It might be
possible for the approving ordinance to have an emer9tncy clause In
order to expedite its enactment. Please let me know if there Is any-
thing further that I can do to assist in this request.
Thanks .

October 18, 1983
On October 12, 1983 the Urban Drainage and Flood Control District
in cooperation with four counties and eight cities in the Denver
Metropolitan Area and the Greenway Foundation began a major drainageway
planning project for the South Platte River. The study reach begins at
Chatfield Reservoir on the South and extends to the Adams/Weld County
line to the north for a total of forty-miles of the River. Vour staff
was Invited by us to support this activity and act as project advisers.
Mr. Doug Clemetson of the Omaha District Office was able to attend our
first progress meeting on October 12th and we trust the Corps will
continue to be represented at all of our future progress meetings. Your
participation in the planning effort is important and appreciated.
During the first project meeting, all of the sponsors expressed an
overwhelming support to have the South Platte River boatable by canoes,
kayaks, and rubber raft. They would like to see boating use developed
for the entire forty mile length between Brighton and Chatfield
Reser oir. As 1 result, they as ed the Urban Drainag and Flood Control
District to r que5t the Corps of Engineers' coop ration towards
achieving this goal. To achiev thfs goal, all drop structures on the
Rfver wfll requfr features that p rmit passag o 11 cr ft. It will
also r qu1re au ntatfon o f lo ws during the lo w fl p rfods wh ich
occur in fd · and late-s r months. Ho ver, wuh to enl fst your

that me eting, a letter was sent fro m the District to Mr. David M.
Walk er, Deputy Director of Colorado Water Conservation Board, a copy of
which was sent to Lt. Col. Grant Fredericks (copy enclosed) outlin ing
the proqress made to date at the local level. To date we have not
received a response regarding this matter from CWCB or from the Corps of Engineers.
Drop structures on the river, by their very nature, pose a barrier
to all water craft. Some unique and innovative boat handling facil iti es
have been installed by the Greenway Foundation and the Urban Drainage
and Flood Control District within the corporate limits of Denver. Many
of these facilities were built with very limited funds, however, they
still function today and are in very great demand during the summer
months. The February 25, 1983 letter offered to CWCB and to the Corp s
a tour of these structures. We wish to repeat this offer and invite you
and/or your staff to see what is being done through Denver. We hope
that similar features can be incor porated into the drop structures be ing
designed by your organization for the South Platte River Chatf ield channelization project .
On behalf of all the pro j ect sponsors, we thank you in advance for
your support in this matter. We look forward to hearing from you.

THE SOUTH PLATTE RIVER
Chatfield to Brighton: Planning for the Future
The Urban iK ainage and Flood Contro 1 District has embarked upo "n its 1 argest and most
challenging major drainageway master planning effort to date: the South Platte River
from Chatfield Reservoir to Brighton. This portion of the South Platte River covers a
length of forty miles. It is an important forty miles!
Suggestions and advice from the local governmental sponsors, interested parties, and
citizens are needed to insure that the master plan will achieve what we all want: a
river corridor of wh ich the Metro area 1s proud; a river wh ich serves many needs; a
river for flood control and people; for irrigation and water supply; for recreation and
boating; for mineral resources and fishing; a river for many uses.
Here are some frequently asked question s:
Q. Whit is a Njor drafn~geW~y •aster planning study?
A. This is a detailed hydrology and hydraulic engineering analysis of the river for
drainage and flood control purposes; coupled with economic analyses, recreational
planning, and landscape planning to prepare a master plan which addresses all the
us s of the river corridor.
(Freq ently asked questions, continued):
Q. y 1s Ute Sollth Platte befng studfed?
A. All the stre•s and gulches in the Metro area drain into the South Platte River. It
is the granddaddy of all of our major drafnageways. It has to rk right!

used on the old base ba ll f ield. Mcla ughlin Water Engi ne er s , as project
engi nee r for the Little Dry Creek improvements, hired Davis & Brandeberry ,
Arc hi tects, to design the press box-bleacher facility.
In Ju ne, 19 83 , Dav is & Brandeberry met with City Council to rev iew prelimi nary
design of the pres s box-b l ea che r facility and estimated co s t . Fo l low ing this

cons truct io n of the se f aci l i t i es could proceed.
FINANC IAL
In Se pt em ber , 1982 , Mc laughlin Wat e r Engi neer s pre pared an estimated construction
budget for the six phases of the Lit tl e Dry Creek i mprovemen ts. Their
construction budget estimate for the Deten t ion Po nd pha se wa s estimated
at $2,051,000.00. T e budg ted cost f or construction of the Detention Pond
by Pal i sad Construction Company, which is nearing completion, is $1,74 8 ,614.00 .

RECOMMENDATION
Davis & Brandeberry have checked the references of the low bidder, Colorado
Commercia1 Contractors. Colorado Commercial Contractors has worked for several
other school districts doing remodeling work and school additions. While
they are a fairly new company, their work has been considered above average
and they have been responsible and conscientious.
Their previous projects have ranged in price from $130,000 to $330,000. A
copy of Davis & Brandeberry's letter discussing the contractor's references
is attached. It is recommended that the project be awarded to Colorado
Commercial Contractors for a contract price of $195,469.00. Due to the size
of this project, it is recommended that a 10 % contingency be added to the bid price to set up the budget.

re: Little Dry Craek Pressbox and Bleacher Facility
Dear Gary:

(303) 388 1900
We have reviewed the references provided by Colorado Commercial
Contractors, the apprarent low bidders on the reference
project. The references included; Jefferson County School
District, Denver Public School District, and Boulder Valley
School District. We have also reviewed an architectural and
engineering reference. Colorado Commercial Contractors
received good recommendations from all parties concerned.
Their performance was rated above average. They coapleted work
on or before schedule and within budget. They were rated very
reasonable on change orders that were either initiated by the
owner or the contractor.
Colorado Commercial Contractors have been in businese for about
a year and one half and have been doing business under their
current name for approximately two .antha. I have enclosed a
copy of the contractor's qualification stateaent that I requested.
We have reviewed the bid results and feel that the low bid
r presents a fair market value for the project. The
discrepancy between our eatiaate and the final bid price, can
partially be accounted for in additio ~1 concrete flatwork and
fencing that was added during the fin 1 deai n phase to the
proj ct.
Baa d on the infor tlon and references that we have checked,
w recommend that the City enter into contract with the low
bidder, Color do Comm rcial Contractors, Inc.
