CITIZENS' RIGHT TO SPEAK
Vivian Vos (WR) commented on the $7 .5 million planned to be spent on 38th Avenue.
She related comments from developers that West Denver and the Highlands are
coming over into Wheat Ridge due to the low cost of homes right now. We should give
that a chance to percolate before we spend money. We should continue to let the
Ridge at 38 develop, let WR2020 do its job promoting Wheat Ridge, and see what
revenues are brought in at 38th & Wadsworth. She suggested alternate ways to spend
the money-paint for buildings, a parking garage , bushes , trash cans , lights, benches,
and have Wadsworth to Sheridan be as one -not broken up into segments .

City Council Minutes February 10, 2014 Page 3
Public Comment:
Thomas Slattery (WR)
• He initially supported this project, but the effects of diverting traffic from a
commercial street onto residential streets have changed his mind. He
doesn't understand the logic behind this . He lives on 32"d near Pierce and
there are times he can't get out of his driveway.
• As far as creating a pedestrian area, he doesn 't think the mix of
businesses on 38th is even conducive to pedestrians. He noted areas like
Tennyson and 32"d & Lowell that have a better mix of businesses and are
not pedestrian areas.
• He 's bothered that no alternatives have been considered -such as just
removing the left turn lane to make space for better sidewalks, parking
and some amenities. How about doing nothing and spending the money
to improve the existing businesses?
• There's been no real world economic analysis of this. Will it return
anything for the expenditure?
• If we don 't have enough money to maintain the streets we have, why
would we spend another $5 million on this project? Spend it on street
maintenance .
Tom Schmuke, owner of Quality Auto at 38th and Pierce, has followed this
process. He was sold this project on two points -that it would bring more car
count and more people. Car count is not up; it's down. We were told the City
wanted this , but the only facts we have are a survey that says 60% of people
strongly disagree or disagree with what has happened . He 's all for doing
something different on 38th (businesses aren't afraid of that), but if what we're
doing is bringing fewer cars and the people don't like it, why aren't we bringing
this to the people? He offered to help with a citizen petition as the memo
suggests, because there is no good intelligence that people love what's
happening on 38th_ He thinks we should spend money, but not on changing the
lanes. We should find better ways to bring people to 38th Avenue.
Vivian Vos (WR) used an analogy to illustrate how this project for 38th Avenue
might be nice, but it's not necessary. The City needs to have a discussion with
all the citizens , not just the people who live 300 feet from 38th Avenue , before any
more money is spent pushing this $5 million project. She objects to this
resolution and thinks this should go to a vote of the people.
Mike Stites (WR) gave more observations about 38th Avenue.
• He noted when COOT planned 1-70/Kipling they started with 150 options ,
include doing nothing . He would like to see a plan with five lanes , to see
what could be done. This has never been looked at and he believes the
same objectives could be met with five lanes.
• A 2-lane road isn 't what's bringing folks to Wheat Ridge; it's the lower rent.
• The businesses all have good parking lots; don't remove them .
City Council Minutes February 10 , 2014 Page 4
• Getting rid of back-in parking and the parking on the south side will get rid
of about 50 signs and make the area look much better. .
• The City has hired a PR firm , so the publicity in recent months is all
bought and paid for .
• Why not give this $41 ,000 to PR people to run ads to get people to drive
and shop 38th again?
• He explained that he and his father were promised by staff that nothing
would be done in front of their business if they didn't want it. Now the plan
calls for parallel parking up close to the building .
• Please spend the $41 ,000 getting the street back the way it was . We
need traffic.
Gil McCormick (Wheat Ridge Cyclery) Their customers are surprised they're
located on 38th because it's not a destination . Before their expansion they
considered relocating. He offered thanks for efforts to make the 38th Ave
business district better. Enhancing and improving it will help their business. Their
traffic is not down . People find them because they market to them to come to
Wheat Ridge. Their average sale is $1000 , so they have customers with money
to spend -if there 's a place to spend it. He encouraged Council and thanked
them for pushing forward with 38th Avenue.
Wanda Sang 0/1/R), who lives north of 38th on Pierce , said traffic on Pierce has
increased considerably . She thinks this $41 ,000 tonight is just a drop in the
bucket for this project. She and many of her friends/neighbors won 't drive on 38th
anymore because it's a hazard. Councils know they must take care of the
streets and she has noticed that other city streets are deteriorating. This is poor
use of taxpayers ' money. When she was on Council the initial money was for an
experiment, and she believes the experiment hasn 't worked. Historically 38 th has
never been our main thoroughfare . We don 't have a downtown like Arvada and
other cities have always had , and she doubts they can make this area into one.
She thinks th is will eventually go to a vote of the people, and she can't believe
they 're really thinking about cutting down trees in a Tree City.
Council discussion followed .
Councilmember Davis addressed process and funding . She supports all the
activity, but Council hasn 't discussed :
• Funding -options and realistic expectations
• Other options besides the road diet
• What we 're going to do with the rest of the street (eastward)
At the request of Councilmember DiTullio City Clerk Shaver read to the public a
memo he wrote regarding the City Charter Section 5.20 -Street Width
Designation and 38th Avenue. The memo is addressed to City Council , the
Wheat Ridge Community, the City Manager and the City Attorney , and includes
City Council Minutes February 10, 2014 Page 5
the text of Charter Section 5.20. [The memo is now filed in the agenda packet
and is part of the permanent record of the meeting.]
Councilmember Starker spoke in favor of the resolution. In 2001 he saw the first
approval for the 38th Avenue Corridor Plan . The plan has been fully vetted
through the City and the public process. It was approved by Council and we are
moving forward with it. Our vision for the City should look to the future.
Councilmember Fitzgerald will be voting for this plan. It has been vetted many
times ; this Council and prior councils have all approved it. The vast majority of
citizens want Wheat Ridge to be a destination. Recent attempts to hinder and
delay this progress are a hindrance by a few people.
Councilmember Urban asked about the transfer of capital funds for this project.
Mr. Goff reported there are no capital funds available unless additional funding
can be found or added revenue comes in. He listed revenue increases, bonding
or loans as possible options. He verified that increased revenues along the
corridor are sufficient to cover the cost of the design work. There was exchange
about whether there has been an increase in revenue along the corridor. Mr.
Urban said he will vote no because we don't have the resources.
Councilmember Langworthy stated she will vote for this because she believes
people are looking for a town center.
Council member Pond will vote for this, but agrees we have to look at funding
options and look at the area east of Newland .
Councilmember DiTullio noted that his memo is about the Charter provision that
has not been addressed by any Council. He asked staff if this Charter provision
has been vetted through the public process.
Mr. Dahl said the Charter requires a public hearing preceded by a public notice
that is also mailed to property owners within 300 feet of the boundary of the
proposed reconfigured street. To his knowledge this has not happened. The
hearing has to happen one year prior to pouring the first concrete. While there
have been several hearings throughout the process, that particular charter-driven
hearing would best happen when there is a specific design with an actual width .
DiTullio suggested that at some point this is going to run into a brick wall -due to
money, a legal protest or a petition. He suggested postponing this until it can be
discussed at the retreat. He hopes, if this passes tonight, someone will make a
motion to get rid of back-in parking now, because it likely will be a year before
this plan is on the table again. It's going to be a long while before anything could
happen on 38th.
City Council Minutes February 10 , 2014 Page 6
Councilmember Pond said he will honor his commitment to have staff investigate
alternatives to the back-in parking .
Motion by Councilmember DiTullio to allow Mike Stites to speak again ;
seconded by Councilmember Davis; carried 7-1 , with Mr. Starker voting no .
Mike Stites spoke further on the effect the road diet has had on businesses , the
traffic problems that exist, and the cut-through traffic he experiences . He 's
unhappy having his 60 year old business referred to as a hindrance.
Councilmember Fitzgerald stated the recommended motion to approve
Resolution No. 11-2014 , a resolution amending the fiscal year 2014 Capital
Investment Program Budget to reflect the approval of a supplemental budget
appropriation in the amount of $41 ,870 to fund the 38 1h Avenue Streetscape
Concept Design contract extension to Entelechy, Denver, Colorado , for a not-to-
exceed amount of $41 ,870 . Council member Starker repeated his second .
The motion carried 5-3, with Councilmembers Davis , Urban and DiTullio voting
no .
3. Motion to set and adopt Operating Fees for Retail Marijuana Businesses in the
City of Wheat Ridge and that such fees become effective as of February 10,
2014
Councilmember DiTullio introduced agenda item #3 .
Annual Operating Fees for the various license types will be :
• Retail Marijuana Store $1,500
• Retail Marijuana Cultivation Facility $ 600
• Retail Marijuana Products Manufacturer $ 600
• Retail Marijuana Testing Facility $ 600
• (If more than 90 days past due each fee increases $100)
Motion by Councilmember DiTullio to set and adopt operating fees for retail
marijuana businesses as provided in the Fee Schedule for the City of Wheat
Ridge that is attached hereto and that such fees become effective as of February
10 , 2014; seconded by Starker.
Councilmember DiTullio noted that at the study session Council had approved to
have operating fees and licensing fees , but it was subsequently recalled that
licensing fees are to be collected by the state, and reimbursed back to the cities .
Mr. Dahl expounded on the provisions of the governing legislation.
City Council Minutes February 10 , 2014 Page 7
Councilmember Urban asked how there are two facilities already operating when
we haven 't set the fees . Mr. Dahl explained that those facilities opened knowing
full well that fees would be coming. They know and expect it.
Motion carried 8-0 .
4. Motion to direct Staff to engage in a Public Process and commence preliminary
design for Bicycle Improvements to Pierce Street between 26th Avenue and 48th
Avenue
Councilmember Davis introduced agenda item #4. This is a discussion
postponed from the February 3 , 2014 Study Session .
Scott Brink made the staff presentation. He displayed the citywide bike/ped
masterplan which indicates Pierce Street as a high priority. There were some
pictures and illustrations showing the differences in street width along the street
and inconsistent presence of sidewalks .
Options are:
1) Dedicated bike lanes
2) Shared bicycle/parking lane
3) Shared travel lanes-using sharrows for shared space by bikes and cars
Staff would like to proceed with a public process to get the feel of the property
owners along Pierce , and return to Council with recommendations.
Public comment
Rachel Hultin (WR) spent the day at Bicycle Colorado Summit. She reported on
the various levels of bicycle skills and the need to accommodate all levels . She
believes that Pierce Street is a singular opportunity to have a strong north-south
connection for all cyclists.
Ann Brinkman (WR) spoke of the many references in the Comprehensive Plan
about Pierce Street being a critical corridor. She read some of them and offered
to make copies for Council. She hopes Council will continue with these changes.
Adam Wilie (WR) relies on infrastructure when he and his children bike . He said
there are gaps in regional north-south connectivity in Wheat Ridge .
Gil McCormick sa id he 's been working on this project for 10 years . We are way
behind Arvada and Lakewood. Th is will be huge for Wheat Ridge and bicycle
connectivity . He thanked Council for including Wheat Ridge Cyclery in the
process .
City Council M inutes February 10 , 2014 Page 8
Ron Keifel (WR) thanked Council for addressing this issue and for the continued
growth and support of multi-modal transportat ion .
Mike Luntine (WR) commutes by bicycle . He voiced support for linking bike
routes . Safety is an issue for many and he doesn't support having sharrows .
Motion by Councilmember Davis to direct staff to engage in a public process and
commence preliminary design for bicycle improvements to Pierce Street between
26th Avenue and 48th Avenue; seconded by Councilmember DiTullio.
Councilmember Pond said there is an active group of residents who have
convened as a bike/ped advisory team and he asked that staff reach out to them
as we go through this process .
Motion carried 8-0.

The 2014 January sales tax increment share back for Wheat Ridge Town Center North due to
Renewal Wheat Ridge (RWR) totals $41,944.23. Expenditures over $35 ,000 require City
Council approval.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
The 2014 budget includes a total of$425,000 for sales tax increment share back with RWR.
BACKGROUND:
The City adopted the Wheat Ridge Town Center Urban Renewal Plan on December 14 , 1981 ,
which provided for the utilization of property and a sales tax increment in the commercial area
east ofWadsworth Boulevard , between West 38th Avenue and West 441h Avenue. The property
tax increment expired in 2006 , after 25 years. Through an IGA between the City and the Wheat
Ridge Urban Renewal Authority (WRURA) signed on June 26 , 2006 , the sales tax increment
was amended so that the maximum increment for the Wheat Ridge Town Center Project paid to
RWR shall not exceed $100,000 in any fiscal year and the increment was extended to and
includes December 31 , 2008 . An amendment to the IGA in October 2007 removed the $100 ,000
annual cap and extended the agreement to December 31 , 2014. In September, 2011 the City

In 2012 when the 2013 budget was adopted by City Council, no pay-for-performance increases
were budgeted in the Crime Prevention/Code Enforcement Fund 63 because development of the
new Compensation Plan was underway. Funding for the implementation ofthe 2013
Compensation Plan was budgeted in the 2013 General Fund Budget. Work on this plan was
completed and approved by City Council in May of2013. Fund 63 has a fund balance available
to cover the increased expenditures as a result of new compensation plan. City Council approval
is required to amend Fund 63 budgeted expenditures.
PRIOR ACTION:
None
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
A supplemental budget appropriation in the amount of$23 ,311 is being requested to cover
increased expenditures in this fund.

BACKGROUND:
Funding for the 2013 Compensation Plan was budgeted in the General Fund Central Charges 610
program budget. Funds from the General Fund cannot be transferred into Fund 63 without
Council approval. Currently there is an available fund balance which will cover the increased
expenditures. Therefore, as part of wrapping up 2013 year-end financials, City Council approval
of the supplemental budget request in the amount of $23,311 is required to amend the budgeted
expenditures and cover the increased costs for staff salaries and related expenses such as FICA,
medical and dental insurance.
The Crime Prevention Fund budget includes the following 4.5 FTEs:
• .5 FTE Police Sergeant
• 1 FTE Crime Prevention Officer
• 3 Community Service Officers
RECOMMENDATIONS:
Staff recommends approval.
RECOMMENDED MOTION:
"I move to approve Resolution No . 17-2014, a resolution amending the fiscal year 2013 Crime
Prevention Fund 63 Budget to reflect the approval of a supplemental budget appropriation in the
