PUBLIC HEARINGS AND ORDINANCES ON SECOND READING
Agenda Item 2 and 3 were addressed as a unit because they affect the same property.
Mayor DiTullio opened the public hearing.
Mr. Starker left the room because he is the applicant for Items 2 and 3.
Mr. Reinhart introduced Agenda Items 2 and 3.
2. Resolution 42-2012-A Resolution authorizing the execution of an Agreement
with Walrus 5560 to participate in the Wheat Ridge Business Development Zone
Program for a rebate of 25% of the eligible City fees, charges and taxes in
association with the construction of a restaurant at 5560 W . 29th Ave.
The WR Business Development Zone program allows the City Council to waive
City Council Minutes September 24, 2012 Page 3
certain building permit fees and building use taxes associated with construction
projects. As such it can refund fees and taxes for projects that will generate sales tax.
The request from Walrus5560 is for an estimated total refund of $6,638 .
3. Resolution 49-2012-A Resolution authorizing the execution of an agreement
with Walrus 5560 for participation in the Enhanced Sales Tax Incentive Program
(ESTIP) rebating 25% of the Enhanced Sales Tax for a period of three years for
the construction of a restaurant at 5560 W. 29th Ave.
This request for an Enhanced Sales Tax Incentive Program (ESTIP) would give back to
Walrus 25% of their total City sales taxes for a period of three years for an estimated
total of $33,750.
Mr. Goff explained that staff is recommending these two resolutions because the project
will:
• generate approximately $45,000 in new sales tax,
• create 25 new permanent jobs,
• improve an underutilized piece of property,
• act as a catalyst for other revitalization projects in the area,
• address the lack of full service, sit-down restaurants in the area.
Public Comment: Lloyd Levy said he is supportive of the project because it will be a
good thing for that corner and for the neighborhood
Mayor DiTullio closed the public hearing .

ORDINANCES ON FIRST READING
~. Council Bill No. 22-2012-An Ordinance amending Chapter 26 concerning the
review process for Public Schools.
Mr. Pond introduced Agenda Item 4.
City Council Minutes September 24, 2012 Page4
Currently the City requires a Special Use Permit (SUP) process for the opening of public
and private schools. The state has now adopted legislation about the siting and
construction of public and charter schools that now makes our Code in conflict with
state law. Adoption of this ordinance will bring our Code into compliance with state law.
Motion by Mr. Pond to approve Council Bill No. 22-2012, an ordinance amending
Chapter 26 concerning the review process for public schools, on first reading, order it
published, public hearing set for Monday, October 8th at 7 p.m. in City Council
Chambers, and that it take effect 15 days after final publication; seconded by Mr. Stites ;
carried 8-0
5. Council Bill No . 21-2012-An Ordinance amending Chapter 26 concerning the
creation of an Industrial-Employment (1-E) Zone District.
Mr. Stites introduced Agenda Item 5.
Creating the 1-E zone district will provide more flexibility for the development of industrial
areas by changing some special uses to allowed uses, adding more modern uses to the
list of permitted uses, updating development standards, and providing for application
directly to 1-E, rather than requiring a Planned Industrial Development which is lengthy,
expensive and difficult to track over time.
Motion by Mr. Stites to approve Council Bill No . 21-2012, an ordinance amending
Chapter 26 concerning the creation of an industrial-employment zone district, on first
reading, order it published, public hearing set for Monday , October 8 at 7 p.m. in City
Council Chambers, and that it take effect 15 days after final publication; seconded by
Mr. Pond and Mrs. Langworthy; carried 8-0
§. Council Bill No. 23-2012 -An Ordinance approving a City-Initiated Rezoning of
property located at 7750 Three Acre Lane from Residential-Three (R-3) to Mixed
Use-Commercial (MU-C) (Case No. WZ-12-05)
Ms. Davis introduced Agenda Item 6.
In 2011 the previous City Council rezoned the Wadsworth Corridor to Mixed Use-
Commercial. The 1.5 acre parcel in question was inadvertently left out of this rezoning.
The property owner has requested to be rezoned to MU-C, so the City is initiating this
rezoning to correct that omission.
Motion by Ms. Davis to approve Council Bill No . 23-2012. an ordinance approving a
city-initiated rezoning of property located at 7750 Three Acre Lane from Residential-
Three (R-3) to Mixed Use-Commercial (MU-C), on first reading, order it published,
public hearing set for Monday, October 22, 2012 at 7 p.m . in City Council Chambers,

and that it take effect 15 days after final publication; seconded by Mr. Starker; carried 8-
0 .
z. Council Bill No. 20-2012-An Ordinance approving the Comprehensive
Rezoning of Property along 381h Ave. between Sheridan and Wadsworth to the
Mixed Use-Neighborhood (MU-N) Zone District (Case No. WZ-12-04)
Mr. Reinhart recused himself because he is in a business relationship where he would
be a direct beneficiary if this zoning goes through.
Mrs. Jay introduced Agenda Item 7.
The current zoning of 38th Avenue contains outdated development standards and
patchwork zoning. This makes compact, mixed use, pedestrian-friendly development
difficult to achieve. This rezoning to Mixed Use-Neighborhood (MU-N) provides a
detailed strategy for revitalizing the corridor into a vibrant main street with a range of
uses. The things it will support include:
• A range of commercial, neighborhood-serving retail, and civic uses
• Residential uses (single, double and multi-family),
• Live-work units,
• Ground floor commercial with apartments above,
• Allowable residential density up to 21 units per acre for the entire corridor,
• Increased landscaping requirements to provide usable open space and plazas,
• Requiring a tree lawn for expansion of 50% or more, or complete redevelopment,
• Maintaining height limits of 35 feet for residential and 50 feet for all other
buildings,
• Existing auto-related uses (car repair, sales lots, car washes, gas stations, drive-
throughs, etc.) to be grandfathered as legal non-conforming uses, but not be an
allowed use for new development under the MU-N zoning,
• Requiring Conditional Use Permits for new or expanding car repair, drive-through
uses, gas stations, and large scale retail uses (over 60,000 GSF in size),
• Administrative site approval for most developments, with public input necessary
only for developments 10 acres or larger,
• Requiring new buildings to be placed close to the street (parking on side or rear),
• Extensive screening and fencing requirements for certain uses to protect
adjacent properties/neighborhoods.
Motion by Mrs. Jay to approve Council Bill No. 20-2012, an ordinance approving the
comprehensive rezoning of property along 38th Avenue between Sheridan and
Wadsworth to the Mixed Use-Neighborhood (MU-N) zone district, on first reading, order
it published, public hearing set for Monday, October 22, 2012, at 7 p.m. in City Council
Chambers, and that it take effect 30 days after final publication, with the following
condition:
1. The property located at 6965-85 W. 38th Avenue is removed from the rezoning
area.

Mr. Reinhart returned to the chambers.
~-Council Bill No . 24-2012-An Ordinance amending Chapter 21-107 of the Wheat
Ridge Code of Laws to permit waiver of insurance requirements for certain long-
term Right-of-Way Permits.
Mrs. Langworthy introduced Agenda Item 8.
Some right-of-way use permits authorize semi-permanent improvements such as
fences, walls, etc. This ordinance amendment would allow such "long-term"
permits to be issued without a defined termination date and continue to require
indemnification, but would remove the requirement that insurance certificates be
provided to the City . Long-term permits would also be recorded against the affected
properties to ensure that future owners are aware of the permits.
Motion by Mrs. Langworthy to approve Council Bill No. 24-2012, an ordinance
amending Chapter 21-107 of the Wheat Ridge Code of Laws to permit waiver of
insurance requirements for certain long term right-of-way permits, on first reading, order
it published, public hearing set for Monday, October 8, 2012 at 7:00p.m. in the City
Council Chambers, and that it take effect upon adoption; seconded by Mr. Stites;
carried 8-0 .
CITY MANAGER MATTERS
Mr. Goff addressed the recent graffiti in eastern Wheat Ridge . The police have been
working with Code Enforcement, Parks, and Public Works to proactively address these
quality-of-life issues. They've sent letters to folks in eastern Wheat Ridge with
examples of things that need to be cleaned up in certain areas and alleys. They have
time to clean that up before they get any type of warning . If anyone witnesses graffiti in
progress they should call 911 immediately, or they can report graffiti to the police non-
emergency number at 303-237-2220.
He also thanked the City staff for all their volunteer help with the Celebration on 38th
Avenue.
ELECTED OFFICIALS' MATTERS
Councilmembers Davis, Pond, Stites, Langworthy, Jay, Reinhart and Mayor DiTullio all
offered various expressions of congratulations, compliments and thanks to all the
people, businesses, groups and volunteers who contributed to the great success of the
grand opening of the new 38th Avenue this past Saturday.
City Council Minutes September 24, 2012 Page 7
Kristi Davis also referred to her recent Council article that appeared in the
Neighborhood Gazette. She wrote about respect and tolerance. For some of the
issues that Council has discussed recently (smoking, noise, senior and handicapped
housing) she believes it is best to come together as a community to work through
problems rather than having to pass an ordinance about everything. She spoke a quote
from Albert Einstein on the essential importance of tolerance.
Davis Reinhart also encouraged people to come out to the election forum this Thursday.
Mayor DiTullio wanted to make sure that a snow removal plan is in place for the 38th
Avenue sidewalks and streets this winter. Mr. Goff stated that the staff and the
Leadership Committee have already discussed snow removal. The City will be
responsible for the streets and City owned parking areas. The Leadership Committee
feels it is important for the businesses do their own snow removal on the sidewalks.

City Manager
The proposed ordinance would update the City's existing Light Industrial zone district to become
the Industrial-Employment (1-E) zone district. The proposed changes, which are recommended
by the City's comprehensive plan, include adding more modem uses to the list of permitted uses ,
updating the development standards for new development, and providing the opportunity to
rezone directly to 1-E , rather than requiring a Planned Industrial Development.
PRIOR ACTION:
City Council reviewed a draft of the proposed ordinance at a Study Session on August 6 ,
2012. Planning Commission recommended approval ofthe ordinance at a Public Hearing
on September 6 , 2012.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
There is no direct financial impact anticipated from this ordinance.
BACKGROUND:
One of the major land use and economic development goals in Envision Wheat Ridge, the City's
comprehensi ve plan , is to promote employment uses that create quality jobs and attract new
employees to the City. The adopted Structure Plan identifies employment areas , mainly along the
Council Action Form
October 8, 2012
Page 2.l
1-70 corridor, where light manufacturing, office, and flex uses will support primary jobs. Most of
these areas are currently zoned Light-Industrial (I) or Planned Industrial Development (PID).
Envision Wheat Ridge notes that the current I zone district does not provide enough flexibility to
promote employment-based uses such as office-flex space. It also states that the I district should
be modified to change some special uses to pennitted uses and to add contemporary uses, such as
office-light industrial flex space, to the permitted use chart. Finally, Envision Wheat Ridge
recommends consideration of employment zoning that would promote a wide range of light
industrial, flex, office, and service uses to support employment centers.
The proposed ordinance addresses the recommendations in Envision Wheat Ridge by modifying
the current Light-Industrial (I) zone district into a combined Industrial-Employment (I-E) zone
district. The modifications would address all of the recommendations in the comprehensive plan
mentioned above, including the addition of modem uses and ensuring that a wide range of
employment uses (light manufacturing, flex space, office, and office services) are allowed.
RECO MMEN DATIO NS:
The proposed ordinance will fulfill goals related to land use and economic development in
Envision Wheat Ridge. It will also create a more up-to-date, flexible, zone district that is
intended to attract employment-based businesses to the City. In order to accomplish these goals,
the ordinance includes the following changes:
Changes to Permitted Use Table and Corresponding Definitions
1. Add contemporary uses including renewable energy production, recycling centers,
and flex space.
2. Convert some special uses into pennitted uses, including contractor's storage
yards, body art establishments, and printing and engraving services.
3. Remove redundant or outdated uses such as carting services and motor regrinding
shops.
4. Add PV panels and wind turbines as pennitted accessory uses.
Changes to Development Standards
1. Reduce landscaping requirement from 20% to 15%. Commercial zone districts
require 20% landscaping but 15% is more reasonable for employment and light
industrial uses. The mixed use zone districts, for comparison, require 10%
landscaping for a mixed use development and 15% for single use.
2. Reduce minimum front yard setback from 50 feet to 1 0 feet. This provides more
development flexibility and better aligns with the goals in the Architectural and
Site Design Manual (ASDM) to place buildings close to the street with parking
and storage behind. The recently-updated ASDM also contains standards to
ensure quality favade design where buildings are close to the street.
3. Reduce minimum side yard setback where adjacent to public streets from 30 feet
to 10 feet and reduce minimum rear yard setback where adjacent to public streets
from 15 feet to 10 feet. These proposed changes provide more development
flexibility and the recently-updated ASDM ensure that building facades close to
Council Action Form
October 8, 2 01 2
Pag e 3
the street meet minimum design standards.
4 . Increase side and rear setbacks, with landscaped buffer, where adjacent to
residential uses from 5 feet to 15 feet.
5. Remove automatic increased setbacks for special uses and instead require greater
setbacks as needed through the Special Use Permit (SUP) review.
6. Clarify screening requirements for outdoor storage that already exists in Section
26-629 and 26-631.
Changes to Rezoning Process
1. Update relevant sections of the code (including 26-112 and 26-301) to allow an
applicant to request to be rezoned to 1-E , rather than being required to complete a
planned development and be rezoned to PID. Planned developments require a
more lengthy and expensive review process and are difficult to track over time
since they often require amendments for any changes to the original
development.
Staff recommends approval ofthese changes, which will create a more modern , flexible
industrial zoning that fulfills the goals in the City's comprehensive plan.
RECOMMENDED MOTION:
"I move to approve Council Bill No. 21-2012, an ordinance amending Chapter 26
concerning the creation of an industrial-employment zone district and that it take effect
15 days after final publication.

The City's zoning code requires a Special Use Permit (SUP) for public and private schools in all
residential zone districts, agricultural zone districts, and in the Neighborhood Commercial (NC),
Restricted Commercial (RC), and Commercial-One (C-1) districts. Prior to a new school opening
in one of these zone districts , the applicant is required to complete the SUP process. An SUP is
al so required if an expansion beyond the size of the originally-approved school is proposed.
The State of Colorado adopted legislation about the siting and construction of public and charter
schools, codified in Section 22-32-124 ofthe Colorado Revised Statutes (CRS). According to the
City Attorney, the City's current requirement for an SUP for a public or charter school is in
conflict with this state law. The proposed ordinance would update the review process for public
schools so that it conforms to Colorado law.
PRIOR ACTION:
City Council reviewed a draft of this ordinance at a Study Session on August 6 , 2012. Planning
Commission recommended approval of the proposed ordinance at a Public Hearing on
September 6 , 2 012, with the condition that the use categories for schools be consistent across all
zone districts, to match the language in the Commercial Industrial distri cts. This condition has
been incorporated into the attached ordinance.

FINANCIAL IMPACT:
There is no financial impact associated with this ordinance.
BACKGRO UND:
Public and private schools are currently a special use in all residential zone districts, agricultural
zone districts, and in the Neighborhood Commercial (NC), Restricted Commercial (RC), and
Commercial-One (C-1) zone districts. Any special use requires an approved Special Use Permit
(SUP) in order to legally operate. The SUP process entails a neighborhood meeting, referral of
the application to outside agencies and utility providers, and a public noticing period. If public
objections are received, an SUP must be approved in a public hearing by City Council. If not, an
SUP may be approved administratively. SUP's are approved, approved with conditions, or
denied based on a list of criteria that relate to the impacts of the use. The SUP process typically
takes about three months and entails the review of a site plan and, for some uses, also requires
review of a traffic study.
The City has been requiring SUPs for new or expanded schools in the zone districts listed above
for many years. Recently, a charter school in Wheat Ridge (located in residential and agricultural
zone districts) requested an expansion. Staff informed them of the typical process to apply for an
updated SUP that would address the impacts, particularly related to traffic, of a significantly
increased student body. The charter school protested, citing the regulations in CRS 22-32-124,
which state that local jurisdictions "cannot limit the authority of a board of education to finally
determine the location of the public schools of the school district and construct necessary
buildings and structures." Staff consulted the City Attorney on this topic. After careful review of
the legislation and case law the City Attorney concluded that Wheat Ridge cannot require a
public school or charter school to complete an SUP before granting permission to locate on a
new site or to expand at a current site.
The City Attorney did find , however, that it is acceptable to require review of a site plan and
other necessary documents, such as a traffic study, for a new or expanding public school. The
attached ordinance would replace the Special Use Permit requirement for public and charter
schools with a site plan review requirement.
RECOMMENDATIONS:
The primary purpose of this code change is to (a) bring Wheat Ridge zoning regulations into
conformance with state law and (b) continue to provide a method to review the impacts of a
school on its surrounding neighborhood. The first proposed code change is to clearly list public
schools, which includes charter schools, as a permitted use in all zone districts. According to the
City Attorney, this is the only way to ensure compliance with the state's regulations. Private
schools, as well as colleges and universities would remain special uses in the same zone districts
that they are today.
The second proposed code change is to clarify that, although public schools are a permitted use
in any zone district, they are subject to the site plan review process. Similar to the SUP process,
the site plan process requires submittal of a site plan as well as any other supplemental material
Council Action Form
October 8 , 2012
Page 3
that staff deems necessary, such as building elevations, landscape plans, drainage studies, and
traffic impact studies. Also similar to the SUP process, staff places the proposed site plan on
review to outside agencies and utility providers for their comments. Unlike an SUP, the site plan
process does not require a neighborhood meeting or public comment period and there is no
chance that it will go to public hearing. All site plans are approved administratively.
Staff recommends approval of this ordinance in order to bring the City's regulations into
conformance with state law.
RECOMMENDED MOTION:
"I move to approve Council Bill No . 22-2012 , an ordinance amending Chapter 26
concerning the review process for public schools and that it take effect 15 days after final
publication."
Or,
"I move to postpone indefinitely the ordinance to amend Chapter 26 concerning the
review process for public schools for the following reason(s) "

QUASI-JUDICIAL: ~ES _/~~~ c~ Director of YuiJliCWOrkS
ISSUE:
The existing ordinance allows right-of-way use permits to be issued for a maximum time of five
years and requires that property owners provide evidence of insurance while right-of-way use
pennits are in force. Some of the right-of-way use permits , which are routinely reissued ,
authorize semi-permanent improvements , such as fences , walls , etc. The proposed amendment
to the City Code would allow such "long-term" permits to be issued without a defined
termination date. The proposed ordinance amendment would continue to require City
indemnification for long-term right-of-way use permits , but would not require that insurance
certificates be provided to the City. Long-term permits would also be recorded against the
affected properties to ensure that future owners are aware of the permits.
PRIOR ACTION:
The City Council discussed the proposed ordinance change at its August 6 , 2012 Study Session.
The ordinance was passed on first reading on September 24, 2012.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
None
Council Action Form

Page 2 .E
BACKGROUND:
Currently, right-of-way use permits are issued to allow property owners use of adjacent City
street right-of-way for temporary purposes. Many applications are, however, for semi-permanent
improvements, such as fences , irrigation systems, retaining walls, etc. These permits are issued
for five years and must be re-issued to maintain the improvements. TI1e City Code also requires
that property and liability insurance be maintained to the benefit of the City. Certificates of
insurance are kept on file for each permit.
Staff is recommending that the City Code be amended to allow some permits to be issued with
an indefinite termination . Such permits would be recorded with the County to ensure that future
property owners are aware of the permits, along with the liability associated with them. Long-
. term permits could also be exempt from the obligation of supplying insurance certificates to the
City.
RECOMMENDATION:
Adopt the ordinance as attached.
RECOMMENDED MOTION:
"I move to approve Council Bill No. 24-2012 , an ordinance amending Chapter 21-107 of the
Wheat Ridge Code of Laws to permit waiver of insurance requirements for certain long term
right-of-way permits on second reading and that it take effect 15 days after final publication ."

ISSUE:
The City Code requires construction of certain public improvements as a condition of building
permit issuance. The governing ordinance was amended in late 2011 eliminating the use of
escrows to ensure construction of any required public improvements. Escrows currently held for
commercial and industrial building permits are to be retained indefinitely. The proposed
ordinance would allow the refunding of all escrows if the associated public improvements have
not been constructed within ten years.
PRIOR ACTION:
The City Council discussed the proposed ordinance change at its August 6 and September 17,
2012 Study Sessions.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
None
BACKGROUND:
In October, 2011 , the City Council amended Chapter 5 of the City Code, eliminating the
requirement of escrows for public improvements associated with some building permits. There
were many escrows in place at the time of the ordinance amendment. Existing escrows on
residential properties will be returned to the original property owner if they are not utilized by
Council Action Form

••
the City to complete the improvements within ten years . However, the prior ordinance language
required that escrows on commercial and industrial properties be held indefinitely.
The City is currently holding 14 escrows for public improvements associated with building
permits on commercial and industrial properties.
The proposed ordinance amendment would allow the return of the commercial and industrial
property public improvement escrows after ten years, the same as the escrows held for residential
building permits.
RECOMMENDATION:
Adopt the ordinance as attached.
RECOMMENDED MOTION:
"I move to approve Council Bill No. 25-2012, an ordinance amending Section 5-45 of the Wheat
Ridge Code of Laws concerning certain escrow agreements as security for public improvements,
on first reading, order it published , public hearing set for Monday, October 22 , 2012 at 7:00p.m.

The Arts Council of Wheat Ridge would like to donate a bronze fox sculpture to the City of
Wheat Ridge. The Cultural Commission recommends that City Council approve the acceptance
of a bronze fox sculpture.
PRIOR ACTION:

public art donations. The Cultural Commission convened an art acquisition committee to review
the donation. The sculpture was reviewed and the art acquisition committee recommended to the
Cultural Commission to accept the sculpture and place it in a landscaped area outside the west
entrance of the Municipal Building. At the September 12 ,2012 , Cultural Commission monthly
meeting, the Commission unanimously agreed with the recommendation to accept the donation
and to refer to City Council for final approval , per the Public Art Management Plan.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
The sculpture and rock foundation are being donated by the Wheat Ridge Arts Council.
Installation will be a combined effort with the Parks Division and Tom Abbott , a member of the
Arts Council of Wheat Ridge, at minimal cost.

ranked the qualifications. Based on project team experience, finn capabilities, past experience,
approach and pricing, White Construction Group of Castle Rock, CO was the number one ranked
finn . Pricing was negotiated.
The cost of the Y oungfield restroom renovation project is $134,449 to be charged to the
Conservation Trust Fund account 54-601-800-877 . The cost is inclusive of all labor, materials,
and equipment needed for design , surveying, tie-ins storm water compliance, and construction.
BACKGROUN D :
The existing restroom was built in spring of 1994 and contained a self-composting faci lity made
by Clivus Multrum, Inc. Included in the construction were a men's and women's restroom and a
drinking fountain.
The Y oungfield restroom consists of masonry construction and a laminated wood deck roof
construction. A metal roof system was added due to damage from the July 2009 storm. The
Clivus Multrum composter was installed in the basement and consists of the large tank with
bulking agent, two liquid storage tanks, a liquid pump system , graywater system, ventilation
system, and fire suppression system . The restroom is open and operates on a year-round basis
due to its location adjacent to the Clear Creek Trail.
The system has a maintenance schedule based on usage, and , under normal operating procedures,
needs to be followed closely for successful operation of the composter. The system has been
well-maintained since it was constructed; however, usage has increased and the system now
requires daily maintenance.
During initial construction, a wood-framed wall was constructed as part of the basement wall for
removal of the existing com poster if needed . This wall is in need of repair and will be
reconstructed as part of the renovation project.
RECOMMENDATIONS:
Staff recommend s the renovation of the Youngfield restroom and conversion of the existing self-
composting system to a sanitary sewer/conventional flush type toilet system.
