credit for that portion of sidewalk which was good and since her

Mr. Johannisson stated the City employed Oedipus, Inc.
to petition the neighborhood. He submitted the petitions cir-
culated by Oedipus as City Exhibit 2a -2 f; and the tabulated
report as City Exhibit 3.
Mr. Max Scott, Oedipus, Inc. 1200 Pearl, Boulder,
appeared before Council and offered testimony regarding his
report and petitioning procedures. Mr. Scott stated 879 con-
tacts were made from which 401 qualified to participate in the
survey. Of the qualified contacts, 169 signed in favor and 93
signed against. The percentage i .n the final analysis resulted
in 64~ indicating that needs and desires were not being met and
36~ indicating that needs and desires were being met.
Mr. Scott was cross-examined by Mr. John Criswell,
attorney for Mr. HUDlllel. In response to Mr. Criswell's ques-
tions, Mr. Scott stated the survey results were a good represen-
tative sampling and regardless whether the contacts were more
the percentage results would probably be the same.
There were no further questions to ask of Mr. Scott.
Mayor Otis asked for the applicant's presentation.
Mr. John Criswell, 3780 South Broadway, appeared be-
fore Council on behalf of Mr. Hummel. Mr. Criswell called his
first witness, Mr. James Artzberger.
James Artzberger, 6552 South Vance, unincorporated
Jefferson County, general manager of Cinderella City, appeared
before Council. Under direct questioning from Mr. Criswell,
Mr. Artzberger gave testimony in regard to his business back-
ground and experience, and the general activity of Cinderella
City as a retail facility. Mr. Artzberger stated one restaurant
at the center currently had a liquor license -Field, Inc.
Mr. Artzberger stated the management considered Mr.
Hummel's restaurant to be a prime outlet where beer and wine
would be appropriate alcoholic beverages to sell.
Council Member Keena noted the lease agreement between
Capital Alliance Company and Mr. HWllDel contained a clause where-
in the lessee would agree not to oppose the granting to any other
tenant of the shopping center the right to sell beer, wine or liq-
uor in the premises to be occupied by such other tenant. Ms. Keena
asked Mr. Artzberger if such clause was normal in other national
shopping centers.

Mr. Artzberger stated it was a normal agreement of
shopping centers to have certain restrictions. It was the cen-
ter's position during the recent past to discuss with prospec-·
tive tenants any restrictions the center may have in connection
with other leases that may be outstanding.
Council Member Keena asked if the same clause was
in other existing leases.
Hr. Artzberger stated he was not certain; however,
some leases had restrictions in them of one kind or another.
Council Member Keena stated she was concerned about
a person's right to come to Council and testify against a liquor
license; and if there were restrictions in other leases that
would prevent any other tenants from coming before Council and
testifying.
Hr~ Artzberger stated he was not aware of any such
restrictions.
Council Member Keena asked whether or not such situa-
tion would pose legal problems.
Assistant City Attorney DeWitt stated such a problem
would not be binding upon the City. He was uncertain as to the
effect on Mr. Hwmnel because the reasonable requirements of
neighborhood and desires of the inhabitants was the goal and
should Hr. HUDIDel have relevant information he would be press-
ed between the contract and his right to come forward and speak
to Council. Therefore, it would be more of a burden on him
that apparently he was chosen to waive, as well as any other
tenant who has signed a similar contract.
Mayor Otis asked if there were any questions to ask
of Hr. Artzberger.
David Long, 3150 South Fox, appeared before Council •
Hr. Long asked how many other stores or businesses in Cinderella
City could possibly come up later and ask for a liquor license.
Hr. Criswell stated the answer would be speculative
because anyone can apply for a liquor license.
Council Member Neal asked Hr. Artzberger what was the
basic philosophy of Kravco as the managing agent for the center
in regard to lifting liquor prohibition •

Mr. Artzberger stated in any type of business the center
would be operating there was a point of no return in opening any
kind of business. The management would not be opposed to enter-
taining a restaurant requesting to sell liquor. There were some
restaurants that would not be appropriate for the sell of liquor
because their shape, size and type of food sold. There could not
be very many more requests based on the present set up. No other
restaurant has approached the management on this subject to date.
In response to Mr. Long's question, Mr. Criswell stated
the alcoholic beverages to be sold were wine and 61. beer.
There were no further questions to ask of Mr. Artzberger.
Mr. Criswell called Mr. Franz HUDIDel to testify.
Franz Hunnnel, applicant, 3070 South Vine Street, Den-
ver , appeared before Council and gave testimony regarding his
business background. He stated there was a need to serve beer
and wine in his restaurant to complement the food he served.
The majority of his business was restaurant; however, he offered
a delicatessen service for take-out food. He was the presi-
de.nt and sole stockholder of the corporation. The restaurant
was family-owned and operated.
Mr. Criswell submitted Applicant's Exhibit Q -a map
of the premises. Mr. Criswell invited Mr. Long to come forward
for the purpose of viewing the map and how Mr. HUDIDel proposed
to control the customer traffic.
Mr. Hummel stated neither consumption nor carry-out
of alcoholic beverages would be allowed on the outside , side-
walk tables. The alcoholic beverages would only be allowed
inside the restaurant in a roped off section which would still
be separate from the other inside tables extending into the
mall.
Mr. Criswell acknowledged the state liquor code as
allowing the sale of alcoholic beverages in an area that was
roped off with clearly designated entrances and exits.
Mr. Humm e l stated the restaurant hours would remain
to be 9 :00 a.m. -9 :00 p.m. The liquor would be sold "in-line"
at the beverage section. The customer would have to pay the
cashier who would be over 21 years old. The cashier would also
check identifications of customers if there was any doubt of
legal age •

Mr. Criswell submitted Applicant's Exhibits A -K,
petitions signed by Mr. Hwmnel's customers. The petitions were
signed at the restaurant as patrons came through the service
line. Mr. Criswell noted some of the patrons were also resi-
dents of Englewood.
In response to Council Member Fitzpatrick's question,
Mr. Hwmnel stated he would personally supervise the premises
for control. Mr. HUDBDel stated he would do whatever was neces-
sary and appropriate to maintain good operating order for his
business.
In response to Council Member Bilo's question, Mr.
Criswell stated Applicant's Exhibit A -K contained 461 signa-
tures approximately.
"nlere were no further questions to ask of Mr. HUlllllel.
Mr. Long reiterated his concerns regarding whether or
not the center or Council had any plans to limit the number of
liquor outlets.
Mayor Otis stated the matter would have to be addressed
at a later time.
Mr. Criswell called Ms. Dee Richardson to testify.
Dee Richardson, 3335 South Monaco, Denver, appeared
before Council, and gave testimony under the direct question-
ing of Mr. Criswell. Ms. Richardson stated she worked as a
part time petition circulator in addition to a full time job
which she held with Standard Register Company. She had been
engaged to circulate petitions for both liquor license appli-
cants and for people who opposed applications. She was paid
on an hourly-wage basis rather than on the number of signa-
tures collected. Ms. Richardson stated in the application
of Mr. Hummel, she supervised circulators who contacted busi-
ness owners and managers in the City of Englewood and at Cin-
derella City.
Mr. Criswell submitted Applicant's Exhibit L -0,
the petitions circulated under Ms. Richardson's supervision.
Mr. Criswell submitted Applicant's Exhibit P, the
sU111Dary of petitions taken at Mr. HUJ1111el's restaurant and those
from Ms. Richardson.

Assistant City Attorney DeWitt asked Mr. Criswell how
many signatures were in favor of the application and how many
were against.
Mr. Criswell stated the swmnary indicated all the
signatures were in favor; and that Mr. HUllDlel would have to
guess the number of people who refused to sign the petitions.
Mayor Otis asked if there was anyone present who wish-
ed to speak in opposition to the application. No one responded.

BOARD OF ADJUSTMENT AND APPEALS
ClTY OF ENGLEWOOD, COLORADO
JANUARY 9, 1980

to order at 7:30 P.H. by Chairman Virginia Dawson.

Kreiling, Seymour, Oliver, Leonard, Pratt, Dawson.
MEMBERS ABSENT:

ALSO PRESENT:
Clark, Assistant City Attorney
Pittman, Chief Building lnspector
Christy, Recording Secretary
-------------~-----------~------------------------------------------
MULTlPLEX CONSTRIJCTORS, lNC. 2001-2003 W. CASPlAN PLACE CASE 55-79
Mr. Pratt motioned and Mr. Seymour seconded to:
REMOVE CASE 55-79, MULTlPLEX CONSTRUCTORS, lNC., 2001-2003 W.
CASPlAN PLACE, FROM THE TABLE.
Upon a call of the roll, all members voted in the affirmative and
Chairman Dawson declared the case removed from the table •
REQUEST:
The applicant is requesting a variance from the required rear yard setback
of 20 ft. to 12 ft. for the purpose of erecting a duplex unit. This is
a variance of the Comprehensive Zoning Ordinance, Section 22.5-9 i-Rear
Yard for Shallow Lots.
Chairman Dawson verif ied that proper posting and legal advertising of
this case had been given. The staff report was read and submitted to
record.
Mr. ~chard Oliver, a partner in Multiplex, and Mr. Richard Breshears,
Construction Manager, were sworn in for testimony. Mr. Oliver explained
that the City's Zoning Department had requested that the proposed duplex
be designed to face the proposed street of Caspian Place. He stated that
•
I •

•
•
•
• •
by designing the duplex to meet this request i t reduced the rear yard to
12 ft. for which they needed the variance. Mr. Breshears explained that
originally, they had planned to face the duplex on Tejon Street before
recognizing the traffic problems it would cause on Te j on. Mr. Oliver
stated that they were building the duplex for Mrs. Romero, owner of the
rear adjacent property. He stated that the duplex would have two bedroom
units with full basements and would meet all of the other zoning require-
ments. He further stated that hebelieved that there would be a 4 ft.
chainlink fence erected along the Tejon side of the property.
There were no others who wished to speak in favor of the variance. Chairman
Dawson called for those who wi.shed to speak in opposition to the request.
Mr. Marshal Payson, owner of 2133 W. Wesley, was sworn in for testimony
in opposition to the variance. Mr. Payson expressed his opposition to
the proposed street (Caspian Place) and explained that if the street
were to go through it would destroy his house which is presently located
in that proposed right-of-way. He stated that he felt the applicant
should build the duplex on the site without a variance which he believed
would place it in the right-of-way, thus preventing the thoroughfare of
the proposed street. He stated that others in that block felt the same
way because they like their large lots. Mr. Payson stated that he had
not been aware of the proposed street when he purchased the house several
years ago. He explained that if the street were partially put through
over the dedicated right-of-ways no one would want to buy his property
unless he sold it at a financial loss which would create a hardship for
him.
Mr . Pitt.an, Chief Building Inspector pointed out the dedicated right-of-
ways in that block and described the driveway that was planned to be cut
through and turn onto Caspian Place as suggested in other development plans
of Multiplex in that block. Mr. Pittman stated that Caspian Place is
an adopted part of the Comprehensive Plan and will eventually go through.
He explained that in this particular case of Mrs. Romero's property, with
the curvature of the street, it will not encroach onto Mr. Payson's property.
He further stated that the street would only be completed through those
right-of-ways which have already been dedicated and would not affect Mr.
Payson's property. Kr. Payson stated that he would prefer to see cul-de
sacs or curved streets for the new developments rather than run the street
clear through to Zuni St.
Mr. Richard Oliver pointed out two other properties which were either recently
dedic ated or in the process of dedication. He stated that his company was
aware of Mr. Payson's problem and were talking with him to see if they could
perhaps purchase his property. Mr. Oliver also explained his company's
other planned development on two other sites in that block and the proposed
driveway which would run down thecenter of the two lots from Caspian Place
to Iliff Avenue. He explained that their only request was for a rear yard
setback variance. He stated that the owner of the subject property also
owned the rear adjacent property and that the problem was partially created
by the location of her own home on the rear property. He stated that as
owner of the adjacent property, Mrs. Romero had no objections to the request
and that they did not believe the variance would affect Mr. Payson's property
in any way.

~ Mr. Seymour motioned and Mr. Pratt seconded that:
•
•
IN CASE 55-79, 2001-2003 W. CASPIAN PLACE, MULTIPLEX CONSTRUCTORS, INC.,
A VARIANCE BE GRANTED FROM THE REQUIRED REAR YARD SETBACK OF 20 FT. TO
12 FT. FOR THE PURPOSE OF ERECTING A DUPLEX UNIT. THIS IS A VARIANCE
OF THE COMPREHENSIVE ZONING ORDINANCE, SECTION 22.5-9 i-REAR YARD FOR
SHALLOW LOTS.
All members cast their votes. The vote resulted as follows:
AYES: Kreiling, Seymour, Oliver, Leonard, Pratt.
NAYS: Dawson.
FINDINGS OF FACT:
Mr. Kreiling stated that in as much as the subject property owner had dedicated
the right-of-way to the City for street purposes and in that the method of
utilization of the remainder of the property was practical he voted in favor
of the variance. He stated that to cause accessfrom Tejon would be a hard-
ship due to the volume of industrial traffic.
Mr. Se)'lllOur stated that the situation of the duplex in relation to the street
plan was unique to the property and will result in the general good for the
neighborhood. He stated that it was a better safety factor to face the duplex
on Caspian Place rather than Tejon St •
Mr. Oliver stated that he found that the dedication has comnenced on Caspian
Place and that it had made considerable progress. He stated that the owner
of the subject property has coDDDitted her portion of the dedication. Mr.
Oliver also stated that the extension of the street is within the Coaaunity
Development Plan which leads him to accept the fact that this will be a valid
lot for this type of development and therefore worthy of consideration of
a variance. He further stated that he felt this variance was a reasonable
request.
Mr. Leonard stated that dedication had already been made for all but one last
property pending V.A. approval and that the road was already part of the
Comprehensive Plan. He further stated that facing the houses on Caspian Pl.
would be better than on Tejon St. because of the industrial property across
the street. Mr. Leonard stated that the request generally met the six require-
ments for a variance . He stated that Mr. Payson's objection can be met in the
way he wants to handle it.
Mr. Pratt stated that the varianc e will do substantial justice to the area and
allow reasonable development and that in fact, the project could be built
without a variance i f it were faced to Tejon. He stated that this change
had been made at the request of the City as explained in their letter from
Richard Wanush, Director of CoDDDunity Development stating the City's position.
Mr. Pratt stated that the developer~ plan is in line with the Comprehensive
Plan of the City and by f acing the duplex on Caspian Place it would be beneficial
to the occupants, espec ially the c hildren who could not run out onto Tejon.
He further stated that the request falls within the reasons for granting a
variance.
Mrs. Dawson stated tha t she v o ted against the variance because the street has
-3-

•
•
•
• •
not been completely cut through. She stated that although the street is
part of the Comprehensive Plan she still felt Mr. Payson had his rights too.
Chairman Dawson stated that with a vote of five in the affirmative and one
in opposition the variance is GRANTED.
RUVELSON & ASSOCIATES 5450 SO. BROADWAY CASE 01-80
REQUEST: The applicant is requesting a variance from the maximum height of
of 32 ft. for a ground sign to a height of 37 ft. The purpose of the
variance is to erect a new ground sign on this parcel. This is a variance
of the Comprehensive Zoning Ordinance, Section 22.7-7 c.(b)-Maximum Height
of a Sign.
Chairman Dawson verified that proper posting and legal advertising of
this case had been given. The staff report was read and submitted to
record.
Mr. James J. Ruvelson, representing Ruvelson & Associates, 4017 Central
Avenue, Minneapolis, Minnesota, and consultant to the Target Corporation
for their signing needs, was sworn in for testimony. Mr. Ruvelson stated
that Target Corp. was presently negotiating for this subject parcel for
their store. He explained that Target's primary concern in requesting
the variance is for the proper identification of the land and that they
had requested that he look at this site specifically and make his recommen-
dations to assure adequate signing. He explained that after making photo
and site surveys and presenting the information to Target, their sign
committee decided that they wanted a 37 ft. high pylon sign.
Mr. Nate Burt, president of Burt Development and owner of the subject
property was sworn in for testimony. Mr. Burt explained that for the
past eighteen months his company has been in the process of developing the
old "Gem Store" property which, except for a gas station, sat vacant for
twelve years. He stated that he has a 49 year lease on the eighteen acres
of property. He described the new Burt Toyota facility which is under
construction and stated that he had invested several hundred thousand dollars
in the maintenance of the old "Gem Store" building. Mr. Burt stated that
they are in the process of leasing that building and ten acres of land to
the Target Corp., and were expecting the lease to be signed by their main
Board tommorrow. He stated that because the building is located so far
off Broadway they need prominent identification. He further stated that
they had worked together to develop a favorable sign which he would recommend
to the Board in hopes that it will be approved. He explained that the
proposed sign would not conflict with his Burt Toyota sign and would allow
both signs to be prominently visable along Broadway without oversigning.
He stated that they were in the process of removing several objectional signs
o n the parcel in effort to comply as closely as possible to the present
Sign Code.
Mr. Ruvelson presented Exhibits A-C, a draft of the final proposed sign, a
site plan showing the location of the proposed sign and an enlarged photo
take n of the vicinity of the sign location from normal traffic view.

Hr. Ruvelson also presented the Board with other numerous photographs of
the subject property and the existing structures and their signs. Hr.
Ruvelson stated that the old "Gem Store" structure's exterior would be
remodeled with casted concrete panels. He stated that the new Target Store
would have 112,000 sq. ft. of floor space with over thirty-two various
retail operations under the one roof. Hr. Ruvelson stated that he felt
the Sign Code had a hard time relating to a project of this size. He
stated that this parcel is definitely unique for the variance which is
sought and is not generally appropriate to land uses next to it or around
it. He stated that they have several special problems with this specific
site. The firs~ is the exposure to Broadway by onl7 two driveways, which
is one reason they feel it is critical to have adequate signing. He stated
that Target's design package gets them in touch with the cmmwnity and
they are concerned about sign pollution and the esthetics of signs, as
well as having a certain :l.aage they must project. Hr. Ruvelson stated
another reason for their needing the variance was the specific competition
on Broadway and that after doing a line of silfit study they bad determined
that it is illperative to have the 37 ft. height sign to have just a portion
of their sign visable from major competition on Broadway. He referred to
the Wendy's sign which is 29 ft. in height and stated that it would be
directly in front of the Target sign permitting only a portion of their sign
to show to those traveling south on Broadway.
Hr. Burt described several of the signs which he proposes to remove. He
also stated that the Target project will provide a lot of revenue for the
City which he felt the Board should be aware of. He stated that they had
just recently received approval .for a traffic signal to be installed at this
entrance which he was providing at his expense.
Hr. Harry Arld.n, Attorney for the Burt Development Company pointed out the
five signs which were to be removed. He explained that when they had
been in negotiations with the City over a new development project which
needed a sub-division approval by City Council, they had agreed to cooperate
with the Department of Coanunity Development by removing these signs from
the old Toyota building.
Hr. Ruvelson then gave the slide presentation showing the Board a view of
a sign closely similar to their proposed sign. He explained that such a
mammoth project as Target usually needs a variance for their signs to
be on scale in proportion to the size of the stores. He stated that although
the standard height of Target signs is 35 ft. to 37 ft., on this particular
site they must have no less than the 37 ft . because of the existing signs
in the area, in order to have the Target sign visable from the major competitors
on the same street. He stated that reducing the sign would completely loose
it behind the Wendy's sign and only add to the sign pollution of the street
and not accomplish anything. Hr. Ruvelson further stated that this proposed
sign was not the sign they would have liked to use but that they could not
negotiate for a large enough area for their original signing proposal.
The Board reviewed the evidence and discussed the proposed location of the
Target sign in relation to the existing signs in the area •
Hr. DarrellKramer, representative of the Target Corporation, was sworn in
for testimony. Hr. Ruvelson asked Hr. lraaer to explain why the 37 ft •
height was necessary to complete negotiations for the Target Store lease.
Hr. Kr-er told the Board that Target carp. -s not concerned about seeing
the sign from across the street or in the vicinity of the ne¥ traffic signal.
He explained that the store was not in what they would call a typical retail

location. Rather, they look for cross streets, which, in this case,
would be Belleview and Broadway. He stated that because their store would
be three blocks from Belleview, their major c oncern is that people will be
able to see the sign from Belleview and know there is a Target Store there.
He agreed that by Burt Toyota you will be able to see the sign behind Wendy's
sign but unless it is 37 ft. in height it will not be visable from the
K-Mart store at Belleview.
Mr. Harry Arkin stated that there would be a total of 7 ,324 sq. ft. of
old signing which will be removed.
There was no one who wished to speak in favor or opposition to this variance
request. Chairman Dawson closed the public hearing.
Mr. Pratt motioned and Hr. Leonard seconded that:
IN CASE 01-80, 5450 SOUTH BROADWAY, RUVELSON & ASSOCIATES, A
VARIANCE BE GRANTED FROM THE MAXIMUM HEIGHT OF 32 FT. FOR A
GROUND SIGN TO A HEIGHT OF 37 FT. THE PURPOSE OF THE VARIANCE
IS TO ERECT A NEW GROUND SIGN ON THIS PARCEL. THIS IS A VARIANCE
OF THE COMPREHENSIVE ZONING ORDINANCE, SECTION 22.7-7 c.(b)-
KAXIHUH HEIGHT OF A SIGN. THE ZONING DEPARTMENT HAS EVALUATED
THE APPLICANT'S SIGNING PROPOSAL FOR THIS PARCEL AND DETERMINED
THAT THE ONLY VARIANCE NECESSARY IS FOR THE HEIGHT OF THE GROUND
SIGN.
There was discussion of the variance request by the Board. Hr. Oliver
stated that he felt the Board was being asked for this variance for the
only reason of wanting more exposure than the Code allows. He stated that
he could find no justification for the additional height because he did
not feel the Wendy's sign would block the proposed Target sign. He stated
that perhaps they are justified because the store is down in a hole and
because it is such a large store but he could not buy the argument that
the sign would be blocked. Hr. Pratt stated that he could appreciate the
applicants' feelings especially because the store is down in a hole. He
stated that the Target signs are tastefully done and they have done an
admirable job of designing a good sign. He also mentioned the
clean up of the old signs which were proposed to be removed. Hr. Leonard
mentioned the staff report co111111ent that the applicant needed the sign for
the success of their business. He stated that the Target store would bring
millions of dollars of business into the city and if the sign were to be cut
down in height and they went out of business it would be bad for the City.
Hr. Seymour stated that if they were permitted to raise their sign, others
would want to raise their signs also in competition.
Hr. Pittman stated that there had been several other overheight sign variances
previously granted by the Board to this parcel and that this variance would
not be setting the precedent.
All members cast their votes. The vote resulted as follows:
AYES: Kreiling, Leonard, Pratt, Dawson.
NAYS: Seymour, Oliver.

FINDINGS OF FACT:
Hr. Kreiling stated that the staff report mentions the non-conforming sign
(l,496 sq. ft.) on the proposed Target building which will be coming down.
He also mentioned the removal of various signs by the Burt Development Corp.
amounting to5,828 sq. ft. Mr. Kreiling stated that 37 ft. is the standardized
height for the Target signs and it is simple enough not to detract drivers.
He stated that because there will be improvement made as far as signs are
concerned, he voted in favor of the varianc~.
Hr. Seymour stated that be found no true hardship and that this would only
be adding one more overheight sign to the area.
Mr. Oliver stated that he found that there was no true justification for a
variance other than the argument that the applicant wished his sign to be
noticed greater than the other adjoining signs. He stated that he had deter-
mined by working from sight lines that the proposed Target sign would not
be blocked by the Wendy's sign unless viewed from the same side of the street.
Be stated that he felt the 32 ft. height sign would be just as visable as
one would be five feet higher and could find no justification for the additional
requeat.
Hr. Leonard stated that a sign is for the purpose of noticing and that he
agreed with the opinion of the staff of the Department of Community Development
that the applicant is in need of this advertising sign for their proposed
business. Be stated that the variance would not adversely affect the character
of the zoning in the district. Further, he stated that there was going to
be 7,324 sq. ft. of sign removed in exchange for five feet .more of height
so that their sign can be seen.
Mr. Pratt stated that granting this variance would not do any damage to the
zone district and that a previous precedent had been created by three over-
height signs approved on this site. Be stated that in working with the
Department of Co111111unity Development, the developer was willing to eliminate
those signs to bring the area into compliance with the sign code. He stated
that with the quality of the proposed sign it would be a definite upgrading
of the area. Mr. Pratt also stated that because of the nature of this area
the variance will not cause any hardship on anybody and because of the loca-
tion of the store on this particular parce\ not being located where it would
be readilyvisable from the major street, it would be a hardship for the
owner. He further stated that it would not be possible, meeting the present
sign code, to develop this parcel in an economical manner.
Hrs. Dawson stated that she voted for the variance because of the position
of the building and that it would be upgraded as well as the whole area
improved.
Mr. Pittman stated that the Sign Code is a atandard by which to grade low
signs, and buildings and locations. He asked Mr. Oliver if in hia deciaion
he took into account the fact that the location of the sign would not be
in a direct line of plane with the rest of the adjoining businesses. He
stated that he felt it was a unique situation that the business would be
operating out of a hole in comparison to the adjoining businesses. He
explained that the intent of the Sign Ordinance ia to eliminate the com-
petition of getting signs higher and higher on a horizontal plane, not
-7-
I • •
\
-
•
•
•
•
• •
to restrict someone in such a unique situation. Mr. Oliver stated that he
took these things into consideration and if he had felt differently, he would
have voted differently.
Mr. Harry Arkin, Attorney, asked the Board to grant the applicant a re-hearing
based on new, additional evidence which had previously been omitted.
Mr. Pratt motioned and Mr. Seymour seconded that:
IN CASE 01-80, 5450 SO. BROADWAY, RUVELSON & ASSOCIATES, THE PUBLIC
HEARING BE REOPENED.
Upon a call of the roll, all members voted in the affirmative and Chairman
Dawson declared the public hearing reopened.
Mr. Arkin stated that on the morning following this hearing the Board of
the parent corporation, Dayton-Hudson Corporation, will vote whether to
approve this Target Store coming into existance. He stated that he could
not represent to the Board that the denial of the 37 ft. sign would defeat
the approval of the Target store but he explained that their vote was
set up to be taken after they receive Mr. Kramer's phone call telling them
of the outcome of this hearing. Mr. Arkin stated that he personally believed
the Wendy's sign would be an obstruction to the Target sign from his own
personal observations but he was not before the Board to argue that point. He
stated that more importantly was whether the sign is going to exist or not.
He explained that their lease had been conditional on getting signing which
Target felt adequate. He stated that they had not been able to have their
original signing proposal but through lengthy negotiations they had arrived
at a sign which they all could agree to. He stated that the staff of the
Department of Community Development had made their own study and determined
that the 37 ft. high sign would not hurt anybody. He again mentioned the
numerous signs which Burt Development has proposed to remove to show their
appreciation of the City working with them. Mr. Arkin then explained that
the Target Corporation would be spending three million dollars just in the
real estate investment and Burt Development has already invested a quarter
of a millon dollars in repairs to make the old "Gem Store" even partially
usable. He stated that Target estimated ten million dollars in sales in
the first two years. He asked the Board to multiply that figure by the
City's 3% sales tax and recognize the tax revenue potential. Mr. Arkin
then stated that whether the sign exists or not depends on whether Target
is allowed to have what their experience and knowledge deems necessary for
that location. He explained that one of the contingencies of whether or
not they would sign the lease is getting adequate signing. He asked the
Board to seriously reconsider this additional evidence and consequences
of denial and the effect on the co11D11unity before they make their final
decision.
Mr. Oliver asked Mr. Kramer if a market research study had been done before
they considered the lease and if so, did it specify that a sign this high
was essential. Mr. Kramer stated that a research was done but their fuction
is not to make reference to size or height, but they did make reference
to the need of adequate signing to say that the Target store is there.
He stated that even from the beginning when they were still considering
whether or not to take the option of lease there were two conditions. These
were: one,a traffic signal and two, adequate signing that they feel appropriate.
He stated that with a three million dollar investment they feel they are
-8-

I •
-

•
•
•
• •
entitled to adequate signing •
Mr. Oliver made a coanent for the record.
"I feel the Board of Adjustment is being put on the spot to make an approval,
regardle•• of their findings of fact, on the basis it'• good for business,
it's good for Englewood's business, it's good for Target's business, it'll
bring in tax 1110ney, it'll create jobs. Whether or not the variance is
justified is becoaing a secondary issue and that is what has been done by
reopening thi• hearing. You're putting pre•sure on the Board to approve
•omething directly oppo•ite to what they have decided to do. I really do
not think itli fair, although I can certainly understand the argument."
Mr. Pittllan •tated that he uoder•tood Mr. Oliver'• po•ition but still feels
strongly that the Board •hould take into account the past history of the
property, which has not be overvhel.aing •ucce••ful, and the unique conditions
relating to the size of the structure and the location of the structure
due to the elevations.
Mr. Ruvelson offered to prove to the Board their position that the sign would
be obstructed by preparing proper photos using a boom truck, since the photos
he had given the Board had presented a distorted impression.
Chairman Dawson closed the public hearing.
Mr. Pratt motioned and Mr. Leonard seconded that:
IN CASE 01-80, 5450 SOUTH BROADWAY, RUVELSON 6 ASSOCIATES, A
VilU!ICE BE GRANTED Pll<M THE MillMDM HEIGHT OF 32 FT. FOR A
GROUND SIGN TO A HEIGHT OF 37 FT. THE PURPOSE OF THE VARIANCE
IS TO ERECT A NEW GROUND SIGN ON THIS PARCEL. THIS IS A VARIANCE
OF THE C<MPltEllENSIVE ZONING ORDIJIARCE, SECTION 22.7-7 c.(b)-
MAXIMDM HEIGHT OF A SIGN. THE ZONillG DEPARTMENT BAS EVALUATED
THE APPLICANT'S SIGNING PROPOSAL FOR THIS PARCEL AND DETERMINED
THAT THE ORLY VARIANCE NECESSARY IS FOR THE HEIGHT OF THE GROUND
SIGN.
All members cast their votes. The vote re•ulted as follows:
AYES: Kreiling, Seymour, Leonard, Pratt, Dawson.
NAYS: Oliver.
FINDINGS OF FACT:
Mr. Kreiling stated that as he had previou•ly stated he has the same opinion
and therefore voted yes.
Mr. SeY1110ur •tated that the applicants have a hardship due to the •tore
being located in a hole and therefore voted ye•.
Mr. Oliver •tated that he felt there wa• no ju•tification for increasing the
height of the •ign and that in his opinion the Wendy's sign would not block
the proposed Target •ign. He stated that the applicants .certainly had a

•
•
t •
a hardship and he recognizes the financi a l aspects of the variance, but feels
that he would like to go on record as the dissenting vote of the Board as
being opposed to the variance just on the basis that it's good for business.
Mr. Leonard stated that for the same reasons as he previously gave he voted
in favor of the sign because that is what a sign is for, to be seen. He
stated that 37 ft. is a standard height for Target signs and that he goes
along with the opinion of the staff of the Department of Community Development
that the applicant needs the sign for their business due to the
unique situation of their business being located back on the lot. He also
stated that there was no residential district involved.
Mr. Pratt stated that even after hearing the additional testimony, his findings
have not changed. He believes this is due to the uniqueness of the property
and the cooperativent1111of the landlord and the leasee in trying to improve the
old signing in the area by removing a substantial amount of square footage of
signa including SOiie of which were also overheight.
Mrs. Davaon stated that the vacant old "Gem Store" has been an eyesore for
years and that because this would be an improvement to the area she voted
yes. Chairman Dawson stated that with an affirmative vote of five (5) and
one (1) in opposition, the variance is GRANTED.
Mr. Seymour motioned and Mr. Leonard seconded that:
THE MINUTES OF THE REGULAR MEETING OF DECEMBER 12, 1979, STAND APPROVED
AS WRITTEN.
All members voted aye and the minutes stand approved as written.
There being no further business before the Board, Chairman Dawson adjourned

Council procedures for public hearings on the Clean Water Plan Amendments.
The Plan Amendment discussed is entitled, "Evaluation of 208 Management
Agency Designations In The Denver Region."
A number of persons submitted comments and written testimony and a complete
summary of the proceedings is attached to and made a part of the file copy of
these minutes. Final action will be requested by Council at its February meet-
ing on the plan amendments. The February meeting will be held on February
20, 1980 at 7:30 p.m. in the DRCOG Offices.
The Public Hearing adjourned at 8:05 p.m. After a brief recess, the Chairman

Minutes of December 19, 1979
On motion by Mrs. Durdy, supported by Mrs. Anderson,
Council unanimously approved the minutes of the December
19, 1979 meeting as submitted.
Summary of the Executive Committee Meetings of December 19, 1979 and
January 2. 1980
Chairman Clement referred Council members to the summaries of the meetings
included with the agenda, and highlighted several items of particular signifi-
cance •
Report of the Chairman
Chairman Thornton summarized discussions to date of the Program Committee
and other Council members who attended the last policy workshop. He re-
viewed the status of those discussions and anticipated future activities.
The group agreed that all Council members and their local elected colleagues
need to develop greater awareness of, and support for, DRCOG with the public,
the legislature, and special groups through the Council as a whole and by
individual missionary work. Staff is preparing a number of papers on specific

aspects of strengthening DRCOG, including (1) review and update of the A-95
policy, (2) strengthening functional plans, (3) developing criteria for activities
where there are no regional plans, (4) plan or project referral criteria, such as
thresholds, and (5) suggestions for state and federal agency support for
DRCOG's plans. Thus, Phase I, the Policy Retreat, Phase II, the just-con-
cluded discussion, being completed, Phase III, discussion of the specific
staff papers on strengthening DRCOG, should begin as they become available
from staff.
Resolution Reaffirming Support For The Centennial Parkway/C-470 And Urging
Prompt Federal Action Approving The Protect
Mr. Kinstlinger, Executive Director, Colorado Department of Highways, noted
that he had briefed Council several months ago stating at that time that a
meeting with Secretary Goldsmith, DOT, was being planned, The Governor
called Mr. Goldsmith, who said that he didn't think this project was in trouble
and that a high level meeting wasn't necessary and urged that the final EIS be
resubmitted in response to concerns that the DOT staff had expressed. The
concerns dealt primarily with President Carter's new Urban Initiatives in an
attempt to strengthen center city vitality and avoid unnecessary urban city
sprawl. He noted that the revised FEIS should be ready for submittal back to
Washington before the next DRCOG Council meeting and in that regard he re-
quested approval of a resolution to include with the EIS reaffirming support for
the Parkway and urging prompt action by the Federal Government.
Council on motion by Mayor Miller, supported by Mr.
Clement, unanimously adopted Resolution No. l, 1980,
A Resolution Reaffirming Support For Centennial Parkway/
C-470 And Urging Prompt Federal Action Approving The
Protect. (A signed copy of Resolution No. l, 1980 is
attached to and made a part of the file copy of these minutes.)
Resolution in Memoriam of Ben Bezoff
Council on motion by Mr, Smith, supported by Mr. Meier,
unanimously adopted Resolution No. 2, 1980, A Resolution
In Memoriam Of Ben Bez off. (A signed copy of Resolution
No. 2, 1980 is attached to and made a part of the file copy

attached to the Council agenda. There were three recommend-
ations from the committee, i.e. the first deals with an issue
concernirv;i an amendment to the recently amended Transportation
Improvement Program. The second recommends that Council
adopt the 1980-84 TIP; and third, the CAC has reviewed and con-
curred in the various elements of the Transportation Plan over
the past several months and recommends that Council approve
an annual reaffirmation of the Plan as beirv;i in accordance with
Federal regulations governirv;i the transportation plannirv;i pro-
cess.
Presentation Of "Economic Development Profile" And Authorization For The
Chairman To Appoint An Economic Development Adviscry Committee
Mr. Goods tat, DRCOG Staff, explained that the program was initiated in April
and is funded by a grant from the Economic Development Administration. The
goal of the program is to establish a process involving the public and private
sectors of the region through which an economic development strategy can be
formulated and carried out. Initially, the Economic Planning Task Force was
created this past summer to assist DRCOG in the preparation of an economic
profile of the Denver region. The task is near completion and a final report
was distributed to Council describing the region's economic base and growth
prospects.
As a second step it was recommended that an Economic Development Advisory
Committee be established for the purpose of developing and proposing to the
Council strategies for meeting regional economic needs. The narrative attached
to the agenda described the membership composition and duties of the committee.
Mrs. MUler noted that the Program Committee had unanimously recommended
favorable action by Council on establishment of the committee.
Council on motion by Mrs. Miller, supported by Mrs.
Durdy, unanimously authorized establishment and
appointment by the Chairman, of an Economic Develop-
ment Advisory Committee.
Adoption of the 1980-84 Transportation Improvement Program (TIP)
Mr. Scheuernstuhl, DRCOG Staff, reported that the 1980-84 Transportation
Improvement Program contains a program of surface transportation projects to
be implemented dor the years 1980 through 1984. The TIP is prepared anr.ually
by the Denver Regional Council of Governments in response to Federal Regu-
lation 450.300 Title 23 U .S. Code.

As the basis for federal participation in highway and transit projects, the TIP
lists all projects to be federally funded in the coming fiscal year which is
termed the Annual Element and the following four years. The Annual Element
for transit projects is from January 1, 1980 through December 31, 1980, where-
as the Annual Element for highway projects begins on July l, 1980 and goes
through June 30, 1981. In addition to providing a listing of all projects to be
implemented, the TIP also describes the nature of the project to be constructed
or implemented, the general location and the funding to be provided by both
federal and local funding sources.
Several of the summary figures, maps and project descriptions are either blank
or in rough draft form. Summary figures and maps are blank because any
changes in individual projects would change the figure or map. These figures
will be reproduced in the final Council adopted version. Rough draft versions
have been inserted of Figures 1, 7 and 8 to allow an overview of expenditures.
Major project narrations are also in rough draft form, for while these narratives
and complementary location maps are completed and ready for photo processing,
making changes would become time consuming and expensive if they were re-
duced in size for photocopying now.
Finally, the tables listing Interstate Transfer projects will be recalculated to
allow the inclusion of the most recent revenue projections. These third quarter
revenue projections are based upon the newest construction price index avail-
able.
The Transportation Committee reviewed the TIP on January 9, and recommended
an amendment to the resolution to state that the projects included in the re-
solution projects requested by the SIP and projects which demonstrate potential
air quality benefits on the basis of specific analysis and projects which respond
to the safety needs of the elderly and handicapped are deemed to be in harmony
with the State Implementation Plan. Additionally, a sheet was distributed to
Council noting several recommended revisions by the Transportation Committee
on several projects. These revisions are included in the TIP before Council at
this meeting.
Council on motion by Mrs. Miller, supported by Mr. Meier,
unanimously adopted Resolution No. 3, 1980, A Resolution
To Adopt The "1980-84 Transportation Imp~nt~ID·"

Recommendation From The DRCOG Water Resources Advisory Committee Relative
To Mapping And Regulation Of Flood Plains In The Denver Region
Mr. Farley explained that this issue was brought to the DRCOG Council by the
Water Resources Advisory Committee after the committee's discussion with the
Urban Drainage and Flood Control District. Mr. Scott Tucker, executive
director of the District spoke to the issue and stated that the Federal Emergency
Management Agency, which is involved in flood insurance, was being urged
through this resolution to utilize the flood plain designations of the Urban Dain-
age District in their program. FEMA requires flood plain delineations using
existing land use conditions. The Urban Drainage District already has mapped
the flood plains using future land use conditions. This causes considerable
confusion and extreme hardship on the part of local governments. Using the
local flood boundaries of the District would insure regional consistency, more
effective regulation programs and would eliminate the need for the federal
agency to remap all the flood plains. It was also requested that the DRCOG
Chairman forward copies of the resolution to the Federal Emergency Manage-
ment Agency, the Colorado Water Conservation Board and other appropriate
agencies to document the Council's position on flood plain mapping and
regulation.
Council on motion by Mrs. Miller, supported by Mr.
Foster, unanimously adopted Resolution No. 4, 1980,
A Resolution Relative to the Mapping and Regulation Of
Flood Plains In The Denver Region. (A signed copy of
Resolution No. 4, 1980 is attached to and made a part
of the file copy of these minutes.)
Distribution Of FY 1980 Assisted Housing Resources
Mr. Howell, DRCOG Staff, briefed Council noting that the region is expected
to get a maximum of 1005, and more likely even fewer, assisted housing units
for 1980. The Department of Housing and Urban Development asked for a
distribution recommendation from DRCOG in line with the Regional Housing
Opportunity Plan. The Council was asked to approve a proposed distribution
of these units. In determining a recommended distribution, staff was limited
to the total number of assisted units in each of eight program categories as
indicated on a table mailed with the agenda. Staff was then guided by the
following factors, i.e. RHOP fair share goals and outreach targets; the 1979
Annual Assessment of Housing Performance; feasible project sizes; and quality
development proposals already received by HUD and the Colorado Housing
Finance Authority (CHFA), remaining from last year's funding round. The
action requested of Council was approval of the figures for HUD to distribute
units in acccrdance with the table discussed, so far as is practicable. Any
deficiencies not met this year, can be given priority in next year's distribution •

41, Northglenn 4S, Thornton 10, Westminster lS, Brighton 80, Arapahoe SO,
Broomfield 50 and Jefferson County 119. Of the total 318 rehabilitated units
allowed, 260 were allocated to Denver and 58 to the City of Lakewood.
Mr. Howell, noted that the Housing Advisory Committee had unanimously
recommended Council approval of the distribution figures as discussed.
Council on motion by Mrs. Miller, supported by Mr.
Clement, unanimously approved the proposed Distri-
bution Figures as discussed.
Adoption Of Proposed Project Review Policy
Mr. Johnston, DRCOG Staff, explained that when the Program Committee con-
cluded its discussion of "Strengthening DRCOG" one of the proposals, as one
element of the overall strategy, is a new comprehensive DRCOG project review
policy. The new policy would have the major purpose and objective of im-
plementing the DRCOG Regional Growth and Development Plan and functional
plans. A draft of the proposed policy was prepared by staff and is presented
to Council at this meeting for consideration.
Mr. Johnston summarized for Council the current review process and need for
policy revision, as well as the proposed draft policy. Members felt additional
time was necessary to review the policy in more detail and suggested post-
poning action.
Council on motion by Mr. Cook, supported by Mr. Walker,
unanimously moved to table action on adoption of the Pro-
posed Project Review Policy to the next regular Council
meeting.
Report of the Nominating Committee on Election of 1980 Council Officers
It was explained by Mrs. Durdy, Chairman of the Nominating Committee for
1980 that no action was required at this meeting. Election of Officers will
take place at the February Council meeting in accordance with the .Articles
of Association.
The Nominating Committee has recommended the following slate of nominees
for 1980 Officers: Vesta H. Miller, Chairwoman; Frederick Fisher, Vice
Chairman; and Carl Winkler, Secretary-Treasurer. Nominees have all been

Briefing on the Stapleton Master Airport Plan
Dr. Dick Veazey, Airport Planner at Stapleton, briefed Council on the progress
to date on the Stapleton Master Plan fer the airport expansion. He reviewed
the Study Scope through the year 2000. He discussed three proposed alter-
natives of from one to three additional N-S runways and the various require-
ments and costs associated thereto. A slide presentation was given describing
specifics of the three alternatives. These recommendations were sent to the
Stapleton .Advisory Committee and comments should be forthcoming soon. Once
the study is completed around April, 1980, the Manager of Public Wor!<s will
make the decision on a course of action.
Briefing On The DRCOG Metro Airport Site Selection Study
Mr. Farley stated that this study has been underway for about six months now
and is charged with development of a new site, development of a new institu-
tion, and of costs for such a new airport.
Mr. Scheuernstuhl, DRCOG Staff, explained that there are three phases to the
study. The first phase is a midway and is identifying the issues and the types
of policies that need to be set to provide the basic groundrules fer the study.
This phase of the study will be addressing what institution should own and
operate the new airport. The first phase will also look at areas, i.e. majcr
tracks of land within the search areas already identified, not necessarily
where an airport would be located, but looking at tracks to identify whether
the land would be acceptable for majcr airport development.
Further briefings will be forthcoming on the progress of Phase I, as well as
the work to be completed in Phases II and III •
Minority Intern Program Briefing
Now in its ninth year of operation, the Minorities in Urban Administration
Program assists in the development of professionally prepared minorities and
facilitates their placement into top and middle-level government positions.
In doing so, the program provides an opportunity for minority persons to ac-
quire a master's degree from the University of Colorado in the field of public
administration, urban affairs, or environmental design. As a participant in
the program, each student has an opportunity to obtain actual work experience
as an intern with a local unit of government.

rule changes. The letter indicates that the proportion that they judge one
and two bedroom versus three and four bedroom increases is not realistic. The
three and four bedroom units in our area seem to increase at a higher proportion
than the one and two bedroom units. Mr. Reddy stated that there are not man y
three and four bedroom units available in Englewood within FMR. Mr. Reddy then
discussed the status report for Section 8 Existing.
Mr. Keller, Executive Director of Downtown Development Authority, stated that
the EDDA Board hired Kelly Oliver as the architect to proceed with the cleanup

Application for Additional Section 8 Existing Units
Mr. Reddy stated that this application for additional Section 8 units was
discussed by the staff and the staff recommends to the Board that we apply for
10 additional units of Section 8 Existing. Mr. Reddy stated that this will
not add any additional burden to the staff because of the CETA intern who will
be working with the Section 8 Program. Having the CETA intern on staff to
help with the Section 8 Program will show us if we need additional staff on a
full-time basis to operate the program.
Mr. Reddy stated that if we do not apply for additional Section 8 Existing units
when offered by HUD, this indicates to HUD that we are not interested in the
Section 8 Existing Program. This in turn can affect future applications we
submit.
Ms. Morris stated that we will ask for seven two-bedroom units and three one-
bedroom units. We do not have the demand for three and four bedroom units and

Ms. Morris gave a report on the meeting on January 17th with Section 8 adminis-
trators from Housing Authorities in the Denver metro area. She stated that
once a month Section 8 administrators get toqether to discuss problems with
running the Section 8 Program. The group tries to prevent burnout, inform
each other of new rules and regulations and keep things moving smoothly.
Ms. Morris stated that this month Englewood hosted the meeting and Al VanDemark,
'41. Rehab Technician, gave a presentation on how to inspect the units. She stated
that since this meeting Mr. VanDemark has taken a few administrators out to
show them how to inspect units and what to look for. Ms. Morris stated that
one point that needed to be dealt with at this January meeting was how to tell
'
•
a landlord there are problems with the units that need to be repaired. Ms. Morris
stated that this group is excited about the way HUD responds to them since they
have been working toqether in dealing with HUD.
Mr. Reddy stated that he was in Colorado Springs this morning for a HUD/
NAHRO training session for Public Housing. Several Executive Directors from
various Housing Authorities complimented the Englewood Housing Authority on
Mr. VanDemark's work with their staff. They told Mr. Reddy that they appreciated
Mr. VanDemark's work as they were not aware of the severity of the problem of
Section 8 units that do not meet the requirements of the program.
Rehab Report
Mr. Reddy stated that the staff has changed the report form for the Rehab
Program. In the past we have just given the Board the number of loans actually
worked on. This format will give more detail information and show where the
money is at in each of the fund categories.
Mr. Reddy stated that the Bank Agreement with the Englewood Housing Authority is
in Clete Gasson's office. The Bank will sign the agreement as soon as they get
the participations off to the other Banks on the previous agreement before they
enter into the new agreement. The holdup on this is that with the previous
agreement we were assigning the deeds of trust to the Bank. This has to be
completed before Continental National Bank sells the participation offer to
the other two Banks that were involved in the past proqram. Once this is
c ompleted Mr . Gasson will sign the agreement. Mr. Reddy stated that we have
-3-

gone ahead and indicated that we have Bank funds of $350 ,000 as of January .
The reason we stated this is that we had loans from our last loan program that
went over the last amount. We have deplete d the p a s t amount of loan money a nd
are now beginning to use the new amount. Mr. Reddy stated that the staff
doesn't feel there will be a problem with this because by the time the money
is actually expended, the agreement will be signed. Mr. Red d y c larifi e d that
there are loan approvals being made but no disp ursements of money being expended.
Ms. Morris discussed a possible foreclosure case on one of the Rehab loans
which was previously brought to the Board in April of 1979. Ms. Morris stated
that this client was previously told that the EHA Board approved the move to
foreclose on the property; this client then promptly made up back payments.
However, this client has not made a payment since then. Ms. Morris stated
that she wrote this client another letter yesterday stating that her case wil l
be presented to the Board on Wednesday to discuss foreclosure proceedings.
After that date she will have one week to respond with an acceptable solution
to the problem or we will give the case to our attorney.

Mr. Reddy discussed these budgets. He stated that the Housing Division was
considering doing away with the Housing Authority Operations budget. However,
under the Housing administration budget we would not be able to send a Conunission-
er or one of the staff to a conference without permission from the City because
this is a City operating budget. Therefore, we have a separate budget that will
give the Authority some discretion. This budget deals with Housing Authority
business, not Housing Division business. Discussion ensued regarding the

Mrs. Pierson asked f or the sta f f presentation.
Mrs. Romans stated that the purpose o f the Public Hearing is
to consider a request for approval of a Planned Development
in Northwest Englewood. This area was annexed to the City of
Englewood in 1957 . The property between Zuni and Tejon, from
the Vassar /College alley to the Evans /Adriatic alley was zoned
R-1-D, Single-family Residence, upon annexation, which zone
classification was changed to R-1-C, Single-family Residence,
when the Comprehensive Zoning Ordinance was revised and adopted
in 1963. The land was then zoned to R-2-C, Medium Density
Residence, in 1976.
Centurian Partnership has purchased property between West
Iliff Avenue and West Caspian Place to the west of South
Tejon Street . Dr. Oliver and Mr . Joe Adams are the principals
in the Centurian Partnership.
Mrs. Romans stated that the R-2-C Zone classification permits
a maximum of 14 dwelling units per acre, with a minimum lot
frontage of 50 feet, and a minimum lot area of 6,000 square
feet. The purpose of a Planned Development is to allow flexi-
bility in developments and the process requires a Public Hearing
before the Planning Commission and the City Council. At such
time as a Planned Development is approved, it is recorded in
the Arapahoe County Clerk and Recorder's office, and any de-
velopment of the site must be in conformance to the recorded
Development Plan.
Centurian Partnership is proposing to construct five duplexes,
or a total of 10 dwelling units on their acre of land, Mrs.
Romans pointed out that the R-2-C Zone District will permit no
more than two units to be attached. The Comprehensive Plan
shows this area to be developed as medium density, The develop-
ment in the residential area since annexation has been keyed to
getting additional right-of-way for West Baltic Place, West
Caspian Place and West Hillside Avenue, because some property
owners who have contacted the City have indicated that they did
not want to maintain the large lots, and wanted to develop the
back half o f the lot . These property owners have dedicated the
right-of-way to the City to provide access to the rear of the
lots and provide a second building site on their property.
There have been dedications of right-of-way for West Caspian
Place and West Baltic Place, and people in these blocks want
to begin development when the dedications are completed. Most
of the right-o f -way has also been dedicated for West Hillside
Avenue. Mrs. Romans stated that there is considerable activity
going on in this area .
Mrs. Romans stated that there is a 14-foot easement in all
of these blocks for utility installations. In the blocks
where right-of-way has not been dedicated and there are re-
quests for building permits, water and sewer service would
be extended through this 14-foot easement .

Mrs. Romans stated that the staff has been working with the
principals of Centurian Partnership for several weeks, and
that the Plan before the Commission at this time is the second
one to be submitted, and is identified as Plan #2. There is
an eight-inch water line and an eight-inch sewer line in West
Iliff Avenue, from which three of the lots will be serviced.
Plans are being made to extend water and sewer lines in West
Caspian Place to provide service to the remaining units which
will front on that street. The plan proposed by Centurian
Partnership is for the construction of five duplexes. Building
Permits have been approved for four duplexes, two fronting on
West Iliff Avenue, and two fronting on West Caspian Place.
Access to the fifth duplex, located in the center of the
property, would be by a private roadway extending south from
West Iliff Avenue. Water and sewer service for the fifth
duplex would be installed in this roadway, which would be in-
cluded in the ownership of Lot 3, the Lot on which the fifth
duplex is proposed. The Development Plan has been designed
in this way because the Utilities Department has a policy
whicb prohibits extending a water or sewer line across private
property to serve a building site. The initial proposal from
Centurian Partnership was to extend an easement across Lot 4,
the lot to the south of Lot 3, in order to provide utility ser-
vice to Lot 3. The Utilities Department would not accept this
proposal, and stated that the lines must be extended in an
area of "common ownership", or that the ownership of Lot 3
must include the land through which the lines are extended.
The parking areas for Lots 1 and 2 would have access from the
roadway owned by Lot 3 as proposed in Plan #2, which has been
presented by Centurian Partnership. The staff feels that this
could create problems in the future. Also, under Plan #2, a
large portion of the yard which is part of Lot 3 would be
across the private roadway and parking area. If this duplex
were to be occupied by families, children would be crossing
the private drive and parking area to reach the yard. Mrs.
Romans made reference to the first plan which was submitted by
Centurian Partnership, Plan #1, and contrasted it with Plan
#2 on the location of the roadway, the configuration of the
Lots, etc.
Mrs. Romans cited areas of concern that the staff has with
Plan #2, these being:
1 . The parking areas do not meet the minimum standards.
2 . The private driveway has been shown as 14 feet rather
than the 16 feet as was indicated on Plan #1. The staff
feels that the 14 feet could be rather "tight" for maneuvering,
and would suggest that the drive be at least 16 feet in
width.
3. If the Planning Commission determines that Plan #2 should
be approved and recommended to City Council, the staff
strongly recommends that the private roadway be constructed
to City specifications, and that a performance bond be
posted to ensure such construction •

Mrs. Pierson asked if there were any questions of the staff
from the Commission?
Mr. Carson asked if the Fire Department had considered the
proposal and if they had posed any objections? Mrs. Romans
stated that the matter was referred to the Fire Department
and that no objections were posed because the Department would
have access to each of the structures.
Mrs. Pierson asked if the applicants were present?
Dr. Oliver introduced Mr. Joe Adams, and stated that he would
make the presentation for Centurian Partnership.
Mr. Joe Adams stated that the objective of Centurian Partner-
ship was to request approval of the Planned Development for
the fifth unit in an effort to realize a reduction in the cost
per unit. Mr. Adams stated that they estimated that the cost
of one duplex lot could be saved, and that this savings could
be passed on to the eventual owners/occupants of the duplexes;
he estimated that this would be between $1,000 and $2,000 per
building, They also wanted to come up with a development that
would coaply with the plans for this area, and they have abided
by ainiaua lot areas, and other requirements . Mr. Adams stated
that a problem in this area is that of street access. He
stated that utility service to the two duplex units on West
Caspian Place will be placed in the graveled roadway until
such tiae as West Caspian Place is fully dedicated and iaproved.
llr. Adaaa stated that the main problem with the initial sub-
•iasion, Plan #1, was that of the water and sewer line to
serve Lot 3 extending across another Lot. Plan #2 deeds part
of the private drive to the owners of Lot 3, and the utility
lines serving Lot 3 will be installed within this private
drive. Mr. Adaas stated that the members of Centurian Partner-
ship have no strong feelings about Plan #1 vs Plan #2. He
stated that he felt a good solution might be to use Plan #1
and deed the drive from the centerline north to West Iliff to
Lot 3. This would give private ownership to that Lot wherein
the utility lines could be installed, and would eliminate the
problem inherent in Plan 2 of the separation of the yard from
the building across the road .
Mrs. Becker asked if the only reason the applicants brought in
the Plan #2 with the straight roadway line was to avoid putting
the utilities across another lot? She asked if the curved
driveway with the utility installation would be more costly?
Mr. Adaas stated that it would probably cost a little more, but
not that auch more . He stated that they would consider this
drive a "private drive", and it would be reinforced concrete
when iaproved.
Mr. Tanguma questioned the control of traffic using this drive-
way fro• West Iliff Avenue to West Caspian Place? He stated
that he felt other people would try to use it if it goes through
froa one street to the other . Mr. Adams stated that he did not
feel people would use it, and he felt that it could be con-

trolled by signing indicating that it is a private drive.
Mr . Tanguma asked if this could become a problem in the future
at such time as West Caspian Place is developed? Mrs . Romans
stated that the staff did not see that it would be a problem.
Mr. Smith noted that the staff report makes reference to a
decrease in the parking area in Plan #2. He asked what they
proposed to do to meet the minimum parking requirements? Mr.
Adams stated that if Plan #1 was chosen with the roadway align-
ment as shown, there would no longer be a problem with the
parking area. Mrs . Romans confirmed that the minimum off-
street parking requirements are met in Plan #1.
Mr. Smith questioned the issuance of Building Permits on West
Caspian Place inasmuch as it is not a fully dedicated street?
Associate Planner Fessenden stated that the Building Permits
have been approved for the two units on West Iliff Avenue and
for the two units on West Caspian Place, but they have not
been issued.
Mr.Smith asked if the applicants had contacted the residents
who live in the area to discuss the proposal with them? Mr.
Adams stated that Dr. Oliver has talked to some of the residents
who live in the immediate proximity of the site, but they did
not canvass the entire area.
Dr. Oliver indicated which residents they have contacted on
the block aap of the area, and also indicated the properties
Centurian Partnership has an interest in in addition to the
subject site .
Mrs. Pierson asked if the applicants chose to develop according
to Plan #1 and deed the roadway to Lot 3 for utility lines,
would the problems 1he staff has seen in regard to this pro-
posal be solved? Mrs. Romans stated that it would solve some
of tbea. llrs . Pierson asked if enough problems would be solved
to make it a desirable development? Mrs. Romans stated that
the Plan would first have to be referred back to the Utilities
Director to see if it met his requirements . Discussion ensued .
Mr. Wanusb stated that if the Commission and applicant were
going to consider Plan #1, that perhaps the Hearing could be
continued, and Plan #1 could be considered as a new plan.
Mrs . Pierson asked if there was anyone else in the audience
who wished to speak in favor of the proposed Planned Develop-
ment? No one else wished to speak in favor of the Plan,
Mrs. Pierson then asked if there was anyone in the audience
who wished to speak in opposition to the proposed Planned De-
velopment?
Dwayne Skutvik
2268 West Iliff Avenue -felt that there were a lot of things

that haven't been brought out regarding this Planned Develop-
ment. Mr. Skutvik stated that he is very concerned about the
controversy on the dedication of West Caspian Place. He stated
that his personal feelings about five duplexes being located
on a site only four houses from his home is very negative.
He stated that in his opinion, the construction of the four
duplexes is bad enough, but with the construction of the fifth
duplex, it would be like a two-story ten-unit apartment building
on this property. Mr. Skutvik stated that be felt this would
be very repulsive, and that the proposed developnent would de-
crease his property value . Mr. Skutvik stated that the north-
west Englewood residential area is a unique area and that the
residents of the area are unique. He stated that he enjoyed
the large lot in his ownership, and feels that 90% of the people
in the area also enjoy owning large lots . Mr. Skutvik stated
that he just found out Sunday, February 3rd, that this Plannai
Development was proposed . Mr. Skutvik stated that there are
a lot of duplexes going up in this area since the area was
zoned R-2-C in 1976. He stated that he understood it was felt
the R-2-C would help the area. He pointed out there is a lot
of frontage that would be very nice for single-family dwelling
units. Mr. Skutvik reiterated that he is definitely opposed
to the five units, and that he is in fact, opposed to four
duplexes being constructed on the subject property.
Mrs. Becker asked Mr . Skutvik how long he has lived in the
northwest Englewood area? Mr. Skutvik stated that they have
lived there about two or two and one-half years. He is in
fact doing some remodeling on the house, and stated that he
had gotten a rehabilitation loan from the Englewood Housing
Authority to improve his home.
Mr. Tanguma stated that at the time the R-2-C zoning was ap-
proved, residents of the area were looking for ways to increase
the school population to keep the elementary school open. One
of the ways to do this was to provide dwelling units for families
to move into, and it was felt that the R-2-C would provide an
incentive for further residential development and redevelopment.
Mr. Skutvik stated that the elementary school is closed, and
the children are bused to other schools. He stated that he
did not believe that duplex units bring in families with
children. In bis opinion, the people who live in duplex units
are those who will not be residents for a full school year.
Mr. Skutvik stated that he felt duplexes were a "starter sort
of thing" for young couples who move on when they can purchase
their own home. Mr . Skutvik estimated that there are 20 -25
duplexes that have been developed in this area already, and be
feels this is a sufficient amount for a residential area as
small as that in northwest Englewood. Mr. Skutvik questioned
the effect of the development of duplexes in the long-term,
stating that he felt they would create more problems for the
City of Englewood . He reiterated that northwest Englewood is
a nice area, and they don't want to live there with five duplexes
constructed just four houses down from their property •

Mr . Marshall Payson
2133 West Wesley Avenue -stated that he ms taken a straw
poll of residents of the area re-
garding this proposal and the zoning of the area in general.
Mr. Payson stated that he would like to give the history of
West Caspian Place; this street was planned in 1963, he assumed
because some of the people living there at that time wanted it.
This was 17 years ago and it has not been fully dedicated yet.
Mr. Payson stated that he found out about this particular pro-
posal about two months ago, and by the time he found out about
the proposal, he also found out that people were going through
the area trying to get property owners to dedicate right-of-
way for the street. He stated that some of these dedications
of right-of-way have been done under "false pretenses", and
cited Mrs . Romero's dedication of right-of-way. She was en-
couraged to dedicate the right-of-way because the developer
is going to build her a duplex at-cost, but he has now determined
that it will be a modular home. He stated that he has done
some investigations on the cost of modular homes, the basic
price of which is approximately $36,000; with the addition of
a basement and other amenities the price could increase by at
least $10,000 and could increase the total price to $50,000 to
$55,000. He stated that he understands that the offer was made
to do it for this woman for $75,000 . Mr. Payson stated he has
had other people tell him they were told that if they didn't
dedicate the right-of-way for the street, the City would condemn
the land, install the sewer and water lines, pave the street
and charge the residents for the improvements. If the street
was dedicated, the cost of installing the utility lines and
construction of the street would not be charged to the property
owners. Mr. Payson reiterated that some dedications of right-of-
way were made "under threat ." Mr. Payson cited a staff report
from the Board of Adjustment and Appeals on a request for a
variance for Mrs. Romero, and also cited a memo from Director
of Community Development Wanush to Chief Building Inspector
Pittman which stated that the variance, if granted, would not
disturb the "essential character of the area ." Mr. Payson
stated that he felt the "essential character" of the area is
large lots, quiet, and peace. Mr . Payson questioned who was
in need of the housing in northwest Englewood; the residents
up there were not in need of additional housing. He suggested
that perhaps with more housing, the taxes could be raised,
and additional firemen and policemen would have to be hired
to provide improved protection for the area . Mr . Payson pre-
sented pictures of trash that were taken recently; he acknowledged
that the pictures are of an area in Denver to the west of Zuni,
but that this area is very similar to that of northwest Engle-
wood, and the residents of northwest Englewood fear that the
increased development could lead to a situation such as that
which is shown in the pictures. He stated that people living
in northwest Englewood are afraid of the increased trash, dogs,
vandalism and transient people which the development would en-
courage. Mr. Payson stated that he felt all the structures
should be one story if they have to go in there; the people
who live next to these duplexes that are being developed enjoy

their privacy, and do not want to have people from the duplexes
looking "down on them ,"
Mr. Payson further discussed the informal poll that was taken
of the residents. He stated that it was understood that this
meeting was to determine whether or not the fifth duplex would
be allowed on this site. The poll was divided into questions
on (1) whether they wanted the fifth duplex to be allowed on
the site in question; (2) whether they were in favor of ex-
tensive development in "Scenic View", and (3) if they wanted
the zoning changed back to an R-1 Single-family classification.
Each column had an area for responses to yes, no, or indifferent.
Mr. Payson stated that if it was the City's determination that
the streets should be opened in 1963, why cannot the City
change its position and vacate that area that has been dedica-
ted back to the property owners to prevent the streets fro•
going through?
Mr. Payson again made reference to the informal poll taken of
the residents; he noted that the response is overwhelming in
opposition to this development. The residents of the area do
not want "absentee owners ." He asked if there was any zone
classification that would require that the property owners
live in one of the duplex units?
Mr. Wanush asked Mr. Payson if it was reported to him that
there were City people involved in "pressuring" people to
dedicate right-of-way? Mr . Payson stated that he didn't know
who was responsible for the "pressuring" tactics, but that he
did not believe it was City people. He stated that property
owners were told there was a new law regarding the dedication
of right-of-way, to the effect that if they did not dedicate
the right-of-way, the City would do it.
Mr. Wanush stated that it is the policy of the City that all
right-of-way dedications are made voluntarily, Regarding the
installation of utilities and improvement of the streets,
these costs are assessed to the property owners fronting on
the particular street which is improved, or in which the
utilities are installed,
Mrs. Becker stated that comments have been made about two-
story structures; she questioned whether two story buildings
were permitted in the R-2-C zone District? Mr. Wanush stated
that the height limitation is 25 feet in this zone district.
The renderings of the proposed structures appear to be about
1-1/2 stories in height.
Mr. Tanguma stated that Mr. Payson had indicated some dedica-
tion of property was made under false pretenses; he asked that
Mr. Payson cite an example, Mr. Payson stated that a particular
case was the property formerly owned by Mr . Nolan; this was a
corner property, and when South Tejon Street was widened, part
of his property was taken for the widening and improveaent of
•

South Tejon Street. The same thing was experienced by Mr. Nolan
on West Wesley Avenue ; someone said they were going to condemn
to get the right-of-way . Mr . Payson stated that Mr . Nolan sold
his property this year. He stated that he understood Mr. McBride
is having second thoughts about having his contract for sale go
through. Mr. Payson stated that some o f the residents of this
area have lived there for 32 years, and others have moved in
within the last two or three weeks. People are attracted to
the area because of the large lots, and the fact that the
residents can have animals in this part of town. He stated
that be did not see why the area bas to be changed.
Mrs. Becker stated that people should know when they moved
into the area that it was zoned in this manner.
Mr. Payson stated that he was one of the property owners who
was in favor of allowing the aedium density zoning in an effort
to keep the school open, but the school was closed anyway.
There is now no need for the medium density zoning in this
area.
Mr. Smith stated that as he recalled the reasoning behind the
zoning of the area to mediu• density, was the idea that the
residents could build and own the duplexes, live in one-half
and rent out the other half or sell it off . He agreed that
the construction of duplexes by themselves will not increase
the school population because it does not encourage a permanent
school population. At the tiae the zoning was approved, most
of the people in this area felt that way . Mr. Saith stated
that be felt it was "stupid" to close the Scenic View School,
since that area is a unique part of Englewood. He pointed out
that the definition of a neighborhood school is where the
children can walk to school. The zoning to allow duplexes is
not working; Tt"is not increasing the school population, and
unless the units are sold to individual owners the school
population will not increase.
Mrs. Pierson asked for further comments?
Mr. Tanguma stated that when the area was zoned it was under-
stood that one of the things the residents wanted to have done
was to have the "alleys" dedicated to increase the building
sites available in the area .
Mrs. Pierson asked if anyone else wished to address the Com-
mission?
Mrs. Linda Puryear
2320 West Harvard Avenue -stated that there are a number of
duplexes on West Harvard Avenue,
and there are only three children going to school from these
units. She pointed out that a lot of dUplexes are being con-
structed on West Vassar Avenue, also. She stated that they
purchased their property because of the large lot and the prox-
imity to tbe school . She stated that they are now considering
aoving because of all the duplexes that have been constructed
in the area •

Mr. Tanguma asked Mrs. Puryear if they were aware of the zoning
classification when they purchased the property? She stated
they were not aware of it when the property was purchased.
Mrs. Puryear stated that there are problems regarding the
busing of the children to school; when the weather is bad,
the bus can be late anywhere from 20 to 25 minutes or 110re.
She has attempted to talk to the school administration about
this, but no solution has been reached .
Mrs . Doris Skutvik
2268 West Iliff Avenue -stated that the plans for the develop-
ment look good on paper. She stated
that she could not imagine how this many duplexes (five) with
parking areas would look or bow it could possibly fit in with
the neighborhood. Mrs. Skutvik stated that the area is being
inundated with duplexes, and that the developers are not con-
cerned whether their projects fit into the neighborhood. Mrs.
Skutvik stated that the property owners who live in the area
have an interest in the area. She stated that it is "incredible"
that Centurian Partnership is considering construction of five
duplexes on the subject site ; because this will bring in 110re
transient population, wb icb she felt "does not help anything."
Mrs. Skutvik stated that she understood that there would be
only one duplex per lot, and now finds out that as many as
four can be built to a lot .
David Burnett
2130 West Iliff Avenue -stated that be is a neighbor of the
proposed development, and is very
much against it. He stated that be 110ved into the area in
1960 to live and enjoy it, and be brought one acre at the time
he relocated to that area . At the time be purchased his land,
it was zoned R-1, and was later changed to R-2-C for a "duplex
per lot"; be now finds that there are four building sites per
lot . Mr, Burnett stated that he thought about constructing
not more than two buildings on his land at one time, but
was told he could not do so because of the lack of access.
He questioned how the proposed development could be considered
inasmuch as West Caspian Place was not fully dedicated. He
stated that be would like to see the land zoned back to R-1.
Mr . Burnett stated that be felt if this development is allowed,
they will have "about 20 cars" parked in front of their place,
and the rental units will change tenants every two or three
months. Mr. Burnett reiterated his objection to the proposal.
Mr. Tanguma stated that property owners who are concerned about
the collection of trash should contact the City, that citations
can be given to property owners and/or tenants who let the trash
collect.
Mrs . Amber Mosbarger
2250 West Wesley Avenue -stated that she is opposed to five
duplexes on this site; she stated that
she doesn't know whether she is opposed to the four duplexes.
Mrs. Mosbarger stated that she is opposed to putting in a
partial street on West Caspian Place, because it would be
•
I •

put in "only f or the bene f i t o f t he deve lope r ." She added
that if West Caspian Place is opened t hrough, it would "take
the back off o f the Payson house." Mrs. Mosbarger stated
that some people are anxious to develop th e rear portion of
their lots, but a lot o f people want to keep the extra open
space. Mrs. Mosbarger stated that "the contractors come in,
make their money, move on, and the property owners and resi-
dents of the area are left with the problems." Mrs. Mosbarger
stated that the people living in the area appreciate the view,
and with the increased development, pretty soon the only thing
one will be able to see will be the wall of another house .
Mrs. Mosbarger stated that when the residents of the area
petitioned for R-2-C zoning, they did not think the duplexes
would be "scrunched" together.
Mr . Skutvik asked what the width was on West Caspian Place,
and what the width of a legal street is? He asked if 25 feet
was considered a legal width?
Mrs. Romans reported that the Engineering Division has stated
that in blocks where full dedication has not been made to
open the total street between South Zuni Street and South Tejon
Street, they will grade that part that is dedicated in an ef-
fort to cooperate with property owners and encourage development.
Mr. Skutvik asked what would be done with the properties that
are not dedicated? Mrs. Romans stated that nothing would be
done with them until the property owner decides to dedicate
the right-of-way.
Mr . Sllith stated that the street width is a 50-foot rigbt-of-
way, with a 44-foot roadway in most residential districts.
Mrs. Romans pointed out that the roadway width is normally 32
or 36 feet in a residential area.
Mr. Skutvik stated that he felt the 25-foot graveled roadway
would be an "alley" rather than a roadway. He questioned that
this was a legal access. He stated that residences could not
be built on "alleyways" in Denver, and emphasized that the 25-
foot dedication is not a full roadway.
Mrs. Romans stated that since this area has been in the City,
there have been people who have asked that the streets be put
through, and that the staff has worked with the people who have
come into the office to inquire about the streets. The City
Council bas taken the position that the City will not buy the
right-of-way ; it must be dedicated by the property owner. At
the time the land was zoned to R-2-C, the people said they
wanted to develop the area . Mrs. Romans stated that the staff
bas met with property owners in the area; there have been
several block meetings, and at least one general meeting held
at the elementary school in the last year or so . The majority
of those residents who have been interested enough to attend
these meetings, have stated that they do want to develop their
land and the area . At one of the general meetings, there were
I •

representatives of the Engineering Services Division, the
Utilities Department, Fire Departaent and Code Enforcement
Division present as well as the Planning Division staff. The
people at this meeting stated that they wanted to develop the
land, and discussion centered on ways this might be accomplished.
The Engineering Services Departaent bas said that if a dedica-
tion of 25 feet from a point out to either South Tejon or South
Zuni Streets is realized, that they would grade and gravel this
portion of the street in an effort to aid the property owners
in their attempts to develop the area . There is a 25-foot
dedication from South Tejon Street to the property owned by
Centurian Partnership, which will provide access to the duplexes
to be developed on West Caspian Place. Mrs. Romans stated that
the staff assumes that eventually a full 50-foot dedication
will be made; the street will not be put in a paving district
until the full 50-foot dedication is made. Mrs. Ro.ans eapbasized
that the position of grading and graveling a 25-foot dedication
was taken in an effort to cooperate with the residents and
property owners of this area .
Mr. Saith questioned whether the City bas allowed development
in any other place where only a partial dedication bas been
made? Mrs. Romans stated that there is some developaent pro-
posed along West Hillside Avenue where a full dedication has
not been made. Mrs . Romans pointed out that there are some
properties that would be land-locked without an additional
dedication of right-of-way or if the existing right-of-way
were to be vacated.
Mrs. Pierson asked Dr. Oliver to indicate again which properties
be had an interest in? Dr. Oliver indicated properties to the
south of the subject site which he had an interest in. Mrs.
Pierson stated that with the properties which Dr. Oliver has
an interest in, a full 50-foot dedication could be made to the
centerline of the subject site; was this correct? Dr . Oliver
stated that this was pretty much correct.
Mr. Crosby
2186 West Iliff Avenue -asked that his property be indicated
on the Block Map . He stated that
according to the V.A., the rear 25 feet of his property bas
never been dedicated to the City for street purposes, even
though it is so indicate d on the map. He stated that he has
owned this site for five years, and it was not dedicated by
the prior owner either. He stated that the map is in error.
Mr. Crosby stated that he had talked to Dr. Oliver at the
aeeting on January 8th, at which meeting the Public Hearing
was continued to this date, and Dr. Oliver indicated that
he would go talk to Mr. Crosby more fully, but never showed up •
A member of the audience stated that Dr. Oliver did call Mr.
Crosby but Mr . Crosby was not available at that time.

Mr.Crosby s t ated that the Centurian Par t nership people have
not talked to the residents of the a rea . He emphasized that
the principals in the Centurian Partnership will not be living
in the area with all the duplexes, but the present property
owners will have to . Mr. Crosby stated that be bought a large
lot on purpose ; he collects antique cars and keeps them on
the lot to work on . He stated that he has erected a stockade
fence around his lot, and plans to do more to improve his
property. He stated that he has had to pay for curb, gutter
and street improvements which were done shortly after he moved
in. Mr. Crosby stated that he f elt that "this is something
they are trying to cram down our throats ", and he did not
feel this is right .
Mr. Saith asked whether, historically, the City did not deny
Building Permits to build on the back of these properties?
Mrs. Roaans stated that the Permits have been denied if the
access to the rear of the properties would be across a privately
owned parcel when the lot was split. Mr . Smith asked if those
requests which have been denied were any different from the
proposed Development Plan? Mrs. Romans stated that there is
a difference, and reiterated that neither access nor utilities
to one lot could cut across another building site.
Mr . Saith questioned that access to the parking areas for Lot
1 and Lot 2 would be from the roadway deeded to Lot 3 as shown
on Plan #2. Mr . Wanush stated that an easement would have to
be given to provide access to the parking areas; he stated
that this is one of the reasons the staff did not recommend
adoption of Plan #2 . Discussion ensued .
The matter of access for emergency vehicles was further con-
sidered . Mr . Smith questioned that fire trucks could maneuver
the 14-foot roadway and turn into the 25-foot roadway .
Mr . Wanush emphasized that each of the four duplexes do face
onto dedicated right-of-way . The fifth duplex does not, but
the private drive would serve that unit. Mr. Wanush stated
that the various applicants have attempt ed to meet all the
requirements of the various city departments, and that Plan #2
is the result . Mr. Wanusb stated that he did not believe Plan
#2 was a sound plan.
Mr. Smith pointed out t hat two o f the units will be fronting
on a street that may never go through, referring to the two
units fronting on West Caspian Place . Mr. wanush stated that
he felt the City must plan based on the belief that the street
will go through . I f the street is not fully dedicated, then
building permits would have to be denied for the back part of
those lots unless a viable Development Plan is proposed . Mr.
Wanusb stated that he felt someday the rear portion of the
parcels would be sold off, and unless the right-of-way is
dedicated the parcels would be land-locked. He stated that
the staff bas been working with the residents and property
owners of the area to open the area up for development •

Mr . Crosby stated that he was t old that if he wanted to add
to the back of his house, he would have to dedicate the right-
of-way first before the Planning Commission would "give him
an OK." Mr. Wanush asked if Mr. Crosby recalled the depart-
ment he was talking to. Mr. Crosby stated that he could not
recall for sure, but thinks he was told he was talking to the
"Planning Department."
Mrs. Pierson asked if there were any other comments to be made
by those in opposition to the Planned Development.
Mr. Payson asked for clarification on Mrs. Romans' statement
regarding meetings in the neighborhood. Mrs . Romans stated
that there have been block me e tings, and there was also a
general neighborhood meeting. Mr. Payson stated that they
were not contacted regarding any such meetings .
Mr. Payson asked if West Caspian Place were to be fully dedicated,
would it be placed in a Paving District? Mr . Wanush stated that
if the full right-of-way were to be dedicated he felt it would
be reasonable to assume that West Caspian Place would be placed
in a paving district.
Mr. Skutvik asked who would be charged for the installation of
water and sewer lines in West Caspian Place? Mr. Wanush stated
that the City would stand the front end cost of the installation;
but that as property owners tapped onto the lines, they would
be charged for their share of the installation costs .
Ms. Shirley Zezolka
2120 West Adriatic -Asked about police protection and patrolling
of the fifth duplex, the unit proposed on
Lot 3?
Mrs. G. Burnett
2130 West Iliff Avenue -stated that Dr. Oliver has indicated
that he has gotten the acre across the
street on the north side of West Iliff Avenue, and wants to do
the same thing on that site that he has proposed on the property
under consideration. She noted that this would be a total of
20 units in this immediate area .
Ms. Denise Farrell
2111 West Iliff Avenue -stated that the neighborhood is now
quiet and comfortable ; with all the
duplexes going in this is changing, and she will not feel
"comfortable" in her own home .
Mrs . Pierson declared a recess o f the Commission . The meeting
reconvened at 9:15 P . M. with the following membership :

Mrs. Pierson :1 sked i f t he applican t would like to make a
rebuttal ?
Mr. Adams stated that he and Dr. Oliver have worked in good
faith on this project from the start. He stated that they have
not tried to mislead anyone, and questioned that they have said
the things that have been attributed t o them by the opponents .
He stated that the figures cited on t he duplex they propose to
build for Mrs. Romero are not complete and are not accurate.
He acknowledged that he and his partner, Dr. Oliver, do have
an agreement with Mrs. Romero ; if she would dedicate right-of-
way for street purposes, they will construct a duplex at cost
plus 10%, but not to exceed a given figure which Mr . Adams
declined to quote. He stated that as far as he is aware, Mrs.
Romero is satisfied with their agreement. Mr . Adams stated
that Dr . Oliver has handled the acquisition of the land in
the northwest Englewood area, but bas not misled anyone.
Mr . Adams stated that they have not completed plans for the
development of other sites they are involved in; they are, in
fact, considering single-family development in some areas,
but this is a tentative consideration , Mr . Adams stated that
he felt 110st of the comments made by the opponents were addressed
to the issue of zoning, but not necessarily to this particular
proposal. Mr. Adams stated that there are only two significant
differences between Plan #1, the original Plan, and Plan #2
which is now before the Commission: the width of the driveway
and the parking area. Mr. Adams stated that if the Commission
would agree, he would suggest approval of Plan #2 with two amend-
ments, that being that the private roadway be a minimum of 16
feet in width, and the off-street parking areas be a minimum
of 30 feet in width. He felt that this would take care of the
concerns voiced by the staff at this meeting.
Discussion ensued. Mr . Wanush pointed out that the Commission
may approve Plan #2, bring Plan #1 back and continue the hearing,
bring Plan #1 back as a new submission, or turn the Planned
Development down and encourage the developer to build only the
four units .
Mrs. Pierson asked if there were any further comments?
Ms. Skutvik stated that Mr. Adams stated that most of the
comments from the opponents were concerned with zoning ; she
pointed out that the applicants are asking for something that
is out of the ordinary and is not permitted under the existing
zoning regulations, that being the fifth unit. She stated
that some of their comments did, in fact, concern the existing
zoning and the concerns of the residents about putting so many
units in this small space.

The motion carried ,
Mr . Tanguma stated that the proposed fifth unit presents a
problea to him, He stated that when the Commission talked to
the people in the neighborhood a year or so ago, the concern
was to keep the elementary school open, He stated that he
felt discussion was centered on one dUplex per lot, and that
an approximate impact on the population based on the preaise
of one duplex per lot was given. Mr. Tanguaa stated that he
felt eventually the area will develop with a combination of
single-family and two-family (duplexes) residential uses, and
that the right-of-way for the streets will also be dedicated,
Mr. Tanguaa stated that he had no objection to the four duplexes
proposed by Centurian Partnership, but that he does feel the
fifth duplex will impact the neighborhood,
Williams moved:
Smith seconded: The Planning Commission accept and approve
Plan #2 of the Centurian Partnership Planned
Development and refer said Planned Development to City Council.
Mr. Smith stated that he would have to vote against the motion.
He does not like the idea of Lots 4 and 5 being built on with-
out a full dedication on West Caspian Place. Mr. Saith quoted
the Staff Report, which states that the "City's goal has been
to upgrade the northwest Englewood residential area and to
attract young couples with children ," Mr. Smith stated that
he did not feel this particular Planned Developaent meets that
goal. When the area was zoned for medium-density residentia~
the consideration was for 6,000 sq, ft, lot area per duplex.
Mr. Smith stated that he feels this Plan, as submitted, should
be denied.
Mr. Carson stated that he, also, would have to vote in opposition
to the motion for many o f the reasons outlined by Mr. Tanguma
and by Mr. Smith,
Mrs. Pierson stated tha t the purpose of a Planned Developaent
is to permit and to e ncourage diversification in developments
within the City, Mrs. Pierson stated that she does not feel
there has been anything presented in this Planned Development
that would compensate f or the "over-use" of the land ." I f the
proposal was a "really ima g inative design" she felt there might
be something to ••trade off ". She stated that she bad not heard
anyone say that this proposal before the Commission is a good
design, only that it would be possible to build the structures
at a slightly lower cost, She suggested that if the residents
of the area really don't want any more duplex development in
their neighborhood that they investigate the possibility of
changing the zoning, Mrs . Pierson stated that she too felt
the entire area would be impacted by the fifth unit, and would
vote against the motion,

The vote was called :
AYES: Williams
NAYS: Pierson, Smith, Tanguma, Becke r, Carson, Draper
ABSENT: McBrayer, Barbre
The motion failed.
Mrs. Becker asked if there is a precedent to down-zone property
and do these property owners have the right to pursue thjs
option? Mr. Wanush stated that down-zoning becoaes a matter
of "taking away someone's right of use of the property." He
stated that it can be done, but that it becomes more complicated
because of this "taking away of rights." He stated that if
this is the procedure the Commission and property owners want
to follow, the co .. ission could initiate the rezoning, or the
property owners could apply for rezoning. There would be a
fee charged if the request is from the property owners.
Mrs. Romans stated that possibly an increase in requirements
could be investigated, also ; an increase of lot area, floor
area or soae siailar requirements. Mr. Smith asked if this
would not affect all areas zoned R-2-C? Mrs. Romans pointed
out that there are very few areas of the City that have the
R-2-C Zone classification, and that the northwest Englewood
area is one of the few areas that is available for development.
Mr.Wanush pointed out for the benefit of the audience that
before City Council could consider this Planned Development,
the property would have to be posted again .
Mrs. Pierson announced that this concluded the discussion on
the Centurian Partnership Planned Development, and added that
members of the audience were welcome to remain for the rest of
the meeting if they chose to do so . Mrs. Pierson also announced
that at the beginning of each year, City Council appoints new
members to all of the boards and commissions. She suggested
that if any member of the audience was interested in serving
on one of the boards or co .. issions, they should write a letter
to the City Manager's Office.
• • • • • • • • • • • • •
SECRETARY'S NOTE: A letter from Mr. Joseph L. Adams, Jr. of
Centurian Partnership, was received in the office of Co11111unity
Development on February 8, 1980, which letter formally requests
that the application for a Planned Development be withdrawn.
This matter will not, therefore, be referred to City Council.

V. PUBLIC FORUll.
Mrs. Pierson asked if there was anyone who wished to address
the Commission? There was no response.
VI. COUNTRY CLUB JOINT VEN'ruRE CASE #21-78
Mr. Wanush stated that he did talk with Mr . Regan of RPR
Brothers, developers of the site. They are still attempting
to work out the financing for the development, but do hope to
begin construction in the spring. Mr. Wanush stated that the
applicants did obtain a variance from the Board of Adjustment
and Appeals on the high-rises and fire protection requirements;
this variance is good for six months unless construction has
started, and the variance would expire next month unless
Building Permits are issued.
VII. DIRECTOR'S CHOICE.
Mr. Wanush gave each member of the Commission information on
the annual APA Conference which will be held in San Francisco
this year from April 12th thru April 16th . He stated that
there are funds budgeted for one Commission member to attend.
Mrs . Pierson inquired of the members who would be interested
in attending? llrs. Becker and Mr. Tanguma both indicated an
interest in attending, as did Mrs. Pierson. Discussion ensued.
It was determined that Mrs. Becker would represent the Planning
Commission at the 1980 APA Conference.
Mr. Wanush stated that the City Charter requires the Planning
Commission to send a priority list for Capital Improvement
Projects for the forthcoming five-year period to the City
Manager each year. Mr. Wanush stated that with several new
Planning Commission members and a new City Council, he felt
that it would be appropriate to do an in-depth review of the
Capital Improvement Program this year. Mr . Wanush stated that
the various Departments of the City have been asked to submit
a list of what they" feel are projects of major concern to the
individual department and to the City. These projects will
be considered in terms of meeting the goals for the City out-
lined in the Comprehensive Plan . Mr. Wanush stated that he
anticipated there would be staff work on the CIP until April,
and hopes to get the projects to the Planning Commission for
their consideration in May. The staff would recommend that
the Commission hold one or two public hearings on the CIP to
give the public an opportunity to comment on the Planning Com-
mission proposals. It is hoped that the CIP recommendations
may be submitted to the City Council in June.
Mr. Draper asked about the light rail proposed by RTD; would
this be included in our planning? Mr. Wanush stated that he
•
I •

•
•
•
• •

did not think there was an official City position on the pro-
posed light rail . Mr. Wanush stated t ha t the City does suppor t
the Santa Fe corridor improvement and widening, and if the
light rail system would be included in these iaproveaents, he
would assume that the City would support it. Discussion en-sued.
VIII. COllllISSION'S CHOICE.
Mr. Tangwna stated that he would personally like to congratulate
the new members appointed to the co .. ission, and would hope they
could attend the meetings as soon as possible.
Mrs. Pierson suggested that it would be appropriate to send
letters of appreciation to foraer members Marten Lathrop and
Joseph Bilo thanking the• for their service on the Planning Co-ission.
Mrs. Pierson stated that the next regular meeting of the City
Planning and Zoning co .. ission is February 20th at 7:00 P.M.
The meeting adjourned at 10:00 P.M .

FROM: Battalion Chief Loren Ward
DATE: February 16, 1980
SUBJECT: School Attended at the University of Maryland
FACILITIES:
The University of Maryland has set aside a large area in the
Adult Education Center for volunteer fire departments. This
adult learning center for fire department classes is well equipped
with lighting, screens, tables and comfortable chairs, and all
needed items for class presentations. The building for Adult
Education also has a hotel area with rooms and maid service.
In the area of the classroom is a cafeteria that serves all
three meals at a reasonable price. The hotel sections, the
classrooms, and the cafeteria are all under the same roof
which means that out-of-town students can attend an entire
seminar without need of outside transportation.
In all, the facilities were comfortable, convenient, and well-
planned. This made the sessions that I attended pleasant and
convenient.
PLANNING AND ADMINISTRATION:
The entire program was evidently well-planned and organized.
Even with the numerous instructors and subjects covered, the
timetable seemed well followed. Approximately twelve persons
were responsible for the planning and administering of the
program and each one handled their part very well. It is very
evident that the University of Maryland is totally involved in
firefighting classes and seminars.
INSTRUCTORS :
As in all seminars where there are many instructors, there were
"all kinds". For the most part the instructors were interesting
and easy to listen to. A few of them were very "dry• and hard
to learn from. There were as many modes or presentation as
there were instructors. The different ways that classes were
presented was an interesting study in itself. Out of the
approximately thirty who took part in the presentations, eight
were what I consider outstanding as speakers. On the other side,
there were about the same number who were poor. The remainder
was average in their presentations, but adequate as far as learn-
ing and understanding their point of view •

CONTENT:
•
• •
The overall content, as far as subject matter and pertinent
information, was very good. Of the thirty-five subjects covered,
I feel that all but about five were very pertinent. The problem
being that even with a good topic, if the presentation is lacking,
the subject matter also lacks. Still, the fact remains that
when a person is presented with information in the manner that
it was presented, something can be learned from all instructors
and classes.
SPECIAL EVENT:
One of the highlights of the entire seminar was our field trip
to Washington. This was also a well-planned part of the program.
The entire class was taken by bus to Washington, o.c., where we
spent an enjoyable and informative day. All morning was spent
at the National Bureau of Standards where we collected various
information. They were conducting studies on fire spread in medi-
cal institutions and trailer homes. They were also studying
collapse of certain structural materials and safety of wood burn-
ing stoves. An interesting set of tests were being made on carbon
monoxide poisoning. These tests were conducted on laboratory rats
and all data was logged and studied.
The afternoon was spent touring Washington and going through the
Air and Space Center. That evening we were treated to dinner at
one of the finer restaurants in the Washington area. It waa an
enjoyable experience.
SUMMARY:
The overall program was very good. Consideration has to be given
to the amount of planning and time spent by many people in putting
this program together. The University, being involved in Fire
Science classes, plus the fact that volunteer firefighters in
that area are so involved, made the program a success. The facili-
ties, subject matter, instructors, etc. were very good.
The negative aspect of the planning was the long class aesaions
and too many days consecutively. I attended nine day• and had
classes scheduled all of the days except for the field trip.
The claases were scheduled from 8:00 A.M. until 9:00 to 9:30 P.M.,
when the last class was brought to a close. Even with breaks for
coffee, lunches, and dinner, this began to wear on everyone. I
feel that having less days and few subject• would prove as bene-
ficial and would not be so tiring.
Respectfully submitted,

FIFTH ANNUAL FIRE CONFERENCE, UNITED STATES
FIRE ADMINISTRATION (USFA)
The following is a brief report on subjects which
were addressed at the USFA's Fifth Annual Fire Conference
held in New Orleans, LA from January 21 through January
23, 1980. The theme of the conference was the arson
problem in the United States.
Four major subject areas were addressed during the
conference. The arson task force, methods for attacking
the arson problem, the USFA's role in arson prevention,
and workable solutions to the arson problem.
The arson task force as outlined during the conference
does not seem a viable path to pursue given the manpower
and structure of the Englewood Fire Department. Perhaps
a future consolidation of investigation efforts through
a county agency would make a task force concept more
~ feasible for Arapahoe County Fire Districts.
•
Basically, the arson attack in Colorado is much more
fragmented than in many other states due to a number of
organizational reasons, among them a lack of coordination
through a State Fire Marshal's office. In general, the
Denver Metropolitan area has a substantially better
organized arson attack than other cities in the state due
to local agency concern and better support functions.
The U.S. Fire Administration offers help through infor-
mation dissemnation and available federal monies. It is
possible that future funds may be available to cities as
small as Englewood, however most federal grants are being
funneled into larger cities with severe arson problems •
The general theme which surf aced as to the solution
of the national arson epidemic was •dedication" by those
individuals and agencies involved in an effort to reduce
the life and dollar loss due to arson.

The conference was an attempt to reach out on a
nationwide basis and make official agencies aware of the
epidemic spread of the crime of arson in this country and
offer constructive guidelines and information sources to
them so that effective campaigns against arson can be implemented.

DATE: February 8, 1980
SUBJECT: 1980 National Fire Service Staff and Command Course
The 1980 Staff and Command Course, held at the University of
Maryland, was a highly intensified, innovative approach to
problems facing the fire service in the 1980's. The course
entailed fifty-two subject areas during a nine-day time span.
The subject material ranged from management, budgeting, fire
safety education, communication, command, to implementing per-
sonnel standards.
One of the highlights of the trip involved a trip to the National
Bureau of Standards to observe testing of trailer interiors {for
combustibility) and testing of the effectiveness of sprinkler
systems in hospital rooms.
The benefits derived from my attendance will improve my per-
sonal performance in my work area and by utilizing some of the
information received will undoubtedly increase the efficiency
of the training division.
I personally would like to express my apprecition to you, Chief
Beeson, and to the city for making this experience possible
for me.
I would recommend (if budget allows) sending personnel to this
course in 1981 .

RESOLUTION NO. (p SERIES OF 1980 __ _
A RESOLUTION APPROVING THE APPLICATION OF FRANZ HUMMEL DELICATESSEN,
INC. FOR A BEER AND WINE LICENSE WITHIN THE CITY OF ENGLEWOOD,
COLORADO.
WHEREAS, Franz Hununel Delicatessen, Inc., a Colorado
corporation, has heretofore made application pursuant to the pro-
visions of Article 47, Title 12, C.R.S.'73, as amended, for a
Beer and Wine License to be located at Store Unit E-4, also known
as E-2100, Cinderella City Shopping Center, 701 West Hampden Ave.,
Englewood, Colorado: and
WHEREAS; notice of said application and notice of public
hearing thereon having been given, and the hearing having been
conducted on the 25th day of February, 1980 before the City Council,
as the local licensing authority: and
WHEREAS, all procedural requirements of the statutes hav-
ing been complied with:
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE
CITY OF ENGLEWOOD, COLORADO, AS FOLLOWS:
That based upon the application of Franz Hummel Delicatessen,
Inc. and the statements, testimony and exhibits received at the
public hearing, the City Council of the City of Englewood, as the
local licensing authority, does hereby make and adopt the following
findings and conclusions:
1. That the applicant, Franz Hununel Delicatessen, Inc.,
is a tenant of New Englewood, Ltd., Capital Alliance Company, and
their assigns, as landlord, for Store Unit E-4, also known as
E-2100, Cinderella City Shopping Center, 701 West Hampden Ave.,
Englewood, Colorado, said lease having been entered into on or
about September 20, 1966 for a term of fifteen years (see City's
Exhibit 1).
2. That the sole stockholder of Franz Hununel Delicatessen,
Inc., Mr. Franz Hummel, and all officers and directors of the
corporation are of good character and reputation, none having been
convicted of a felony or a crime within any court of the United
States or within any court of record within any state or territory
of the United States.
3. That all legal notices, publications and postings with
reference to public hearing were proper and consistent with require-
ments of Article 47, Title 12, C.R.S. '73, as amended •
•
t
•
I •
-
•
•
(
•
•
• •
4. That the City Council designated an area of two miles
in radius as the "neighborhood" to be considered in either grant-
ing or denying the applicant's request for said Beer and Wine
License.
5. Mr. Max Scott, President of Oedipus, Inc., 1200 Pearl
Street, Boulder, Colorado, te stifi ed that he was employed by the
City to conduct a survey to determine the needs and desires of the
residents of the neighborhood. He submitted his report containing
the method of petitioning and the statistical results of the survey
(City's Exhibit 3) and submitted six (6) petitions marked City's
Exhibits 2a through 2f. The results of the Oedipus survey revealed
that 879 total contacts were attempted and of that figure, 422 were
not at home, but that 457 actual contacts were made within the
defined neighborhood. Of the 457 actually contacted, 266 expressed
an opinion on the needs and desires of the neighborhood. Of those,
169, or 63.53\, signed the petition stating that the needs and
desires of the neighborhood were not met: 97, or 36.47%, signed
in opposition or stated that the needs and desires of the neighbor-
hood were met. Of the 191 remaining contacts, 27 would not sign
any petition, 48 preferred to remain neutral, 56 were not qualified
to sign the petition, 19 did not use alcohol, and 41 gave miscel-
laneous reasons for not signing either for or against (page 3
City's Exhibit 3).
6. The applicant, Franz Hummel Delicatessen, Inc., sub-
mitted numerous exhibits and petitions. The petitioners were
generally divided into three groups: the petitions of residents of
the designated neighborhood, the petitions of business owners and
managers within the neighborhood, and patrons of Cinderella City
Shopping Center. The following is the tabulation of petitions
submitted by the applicant:
APPLICANT:
Residents
Business owners, Managers
Patrons

All signatures were in favor, none opposing •
The applicant presented testimony from Mr. James Archbarger, Manager
of the Cinderella City Complex, who testified as to the area, mar-
ket area, general characteristics of the Center, its activity, and
a description of the neighborhood location. The applicant called
additional witnesses, including the owner, Mr. Franz Hummel, sole
stockholder of Franz Hwmnel Delicatessen, Inc., who testified as
to the nature of his business, discussed applicant's Exhibit Q
drawing of the premi s es and the complementary nature of the beer
and wine to his food.

7. Mr. David Long questioned the applicant concerning
con trol of the beer and wine and questioned how many applications
were going to be made f or alcoholic beverages in Cinderella City.
The City Council therefore finds and concludes from the
statements of witnesses and the exhibits and petitions presented
at the hearing that the neighborhood, as defined by City Council,
contains one (1) Beer and Wine License within the neighborhood;
that a majority of the residents within the neighborhood and the
business owners and managers approved the issuance of the license
on the basis that the neighborhood is not adequately served by the
existing outlets.
That the desires of the patrons of Cinderella City may
not be considered.
City Council concludes, under these circumstances, the
issuance of the said license is necessary to serve the reasonable
needs of the neighborhood and the desires of the inhabitants.
NOW, THEREFORE, it is resolved, based upon the record
and the evidence contained herein, that the application of Franz
Hunanel Delicatessen, Inc. for the issuance of a Beer and Wine
License at Space E-4, also known as E-2100, at Cinderella City,
701 West Hampden Ave., Englewood, Colorado, be and hereby is
approved and granted.
ADOPTED AND APPROVED this 3rd day of March, 1980.

Understand that I have no real dislike of Dogs. I see them basically
as impertinent Sons of' Bitches containing nthin themselves some
type 01' Spirit. I even had a Dor; as a child and loved it very
much. V:y problem is that my f'ellOTr hUlllails who are pet owners
perpetuate the i~bili ty of' t.he avere.ge perso~ to COl!'lllUnicate
intelle~ently vrith the combined Ego of the pet and its 01-mer.
To truly represent me you would need to experience the nn .
inume::-able times I encountered f~gs \~hen my mind vras someplace
else. i:Uowing when this happened that it .,,.s because of the ovmers
inability throu&"i lack of' Elnpathy and/or a:ny constructive standards
to go by in training the animal. A proper l y trained do g could
be an asset to us :i.11, yet because of inadiqui·te action in
this direction we all must suffer. A perf'tct example is the little
girl in Boulder who lost her life to dogs •

The Id.
The ooncluaion I must come to in my O'Yer-11 analyses of the
objecta I obae~d ia thia~
RelatiTO to that which I obserTed• ._nklnd is only beginni n g
its eTOluticmair;y clhab trcm the primordial clay from l'lhioh Tre
eTOlvede Basic logic would deJlll.Dd you listen to me. Let us assume
(For the mcment.) that the objects I obseM'ed,. (i'lhe~ I mis doing
s.o.s. signals with the f'~sh light.) were either an illusion
or haluoination on m;y part. I,lllllet then ask one question.
Does tliat make the entire matter ~ less Validf I am
disW.sing the Soul,. in lif'e as well as af'ter death. ?q Soul
after death is a matter that must depend on.~• l!,y Soul in t!1is
life must depend on that total God out from me as well as that
which enminates f'rom within me. The World may be an illusion
but the Jlind is a r~alit)". At the points in space and ti.me that
I obaerTed the objects I -..s prayi.Dg tor their Soals as well as /
ours. I can oDl.7 conclude in m;y day to day observations that
we ahould all try a little harder. I see my f'ell~ HUlll&IlS
destro;yi~g themsel"Yes tor no 'ft.lid reason. The idea I brought
bef'ore Ci1.y Councel pertaining to the waste plant -s valid.
The reason it 'l'IW.8 not impli.mented was due to monopolistic
tendencies. greed and laws that were Talid two hundred ;years
ago but have become invalid in our present time.
Analogous situations may be applied in areas of Schooling.
1·'.edioine. Prisons. and . Old Age Homes. Let us. as a Nation. find
a balonoe between aggression and compassion, Through understanding
1'9 1111¥ sOZ!K·day achieve even wisdom. It becomes obvious to me that

I saw, eTen in 1946 while in the Ba?,Y, that we as a Nation
l'/Ould eTentual:.y have trouble in the Uid-East and in Cuba. I knew
even as a seTflnteen year old youth that it is impossible to
purchase loyalty. Try to understand that one "lrord may a!ter
one's entire pb,rdoal reality. !'hi• entire paper nolTee tTom
the past, it is my desire to deal with the future for the bonifit
of us all. We can run but I see no~ to hide. Je•us said,·~ ~e
