With reference to your letter of April 14, 1993, and our discussions at
the meeting held at your facility, Lutheran Hospital (LH) will commit to
the following issues.
Providing funds are available in 1994, LH will install the sidewalk
from 32nd Ave. to West Pines. This sidewalk will be installed per
the design of Martin and Martin.
At the time the City of Wheat Ridge implements the pedestrian
walkway along the Rocky Mountain Ditch throughout Wheat Ridge, LH
will install a link from Lutheran Parkway East along the Rocky
Mountain Ditch to our property line, and a link from Lutheran
Parkway West to Dudley Street.
LH does not wish any pedestrian traffic through the campus from
Lutheran Parkway to Lutheran Parkway West except by utilizing the
existing roadway from Lutheran Parkway south to Lutheran Parkway
West.
LH would like to reserve the core campus walkways for patient care and
also to manage security issues.
If there are questions with regard to these issues, please call me at
425-2103.
Sincerely,
LUTHERAN HOSPITAL

RE: Lutheran Medical Center Pedestrian Plan
DATE: June 10, 1993
Please find attached Lutheran Medical Center's original proposal
for a campus pedestrian plan. As you will recall, last summer
the City Council public hearing for the expansion of the
emergency department, this was made a condition of the approval.
See Exhibit 'A'.
Staff met with representatives from Lutheran in April of this
year regarding the proposal and made the following comments:
1. The City would like to see an extension of the path along
Rocky Mountain Ditch to the west to Dudley and to the east to
their eastern property line.
2. City Staff also requested a path north from West Pines to
West 38th Avenue along Lutheran Parkway.
LMC has responded back with the correspondence attached dated I

Mr. Raitz_stated he disagreed. He figured he had.20 additional
feet of ground on which he'd be paying taxes.
Commissioner ECKHARDT informed Mr. Raitz that if the land is --
vacated, he would receive an eight-foot-wide piece of property,-
amounting to-1,040 square feet: He thought the increased tax
would be minimal.
Chairman LANGDON explained that he had been appointed to a' --
citizens' task force whose job it was to see that the residents
on West 32nd Avenue were treated fairly during the
reconstruction. They tried to insure that only necessary amounts
of land was taken.
Discussion was heard regarding responsibility for maintaining
property.
Beverly Phillig~, 10405-West 32nd Avenue was sworn in. Ms.
Phillips stated she was in favor of-the vacation and explained
why.
Commissioner RASPLICKA asked what would happen if the individual
property owners didn't want the property vacated and the City
didn't return it to them, then if the City wanted to widen West
32nd Avenue, would the City have to purchase the property to do
so?
Mr. Goebel stated no it would not.
Commissioner QUALTERI moved that Case No. WV-93-6, a request to
approve the vacation of excess right-of-way along the north side
of West 32nd Avenue between Kipling and Simms Streets be Approved
for the following reasons:.
1. The .excess right-of-way is not needed for street purgoses; -
and
2. City Council directed staff to initiate the_ vacation. -
With the following condition:
1. A maintenance and facility easement for utilities be reserved
over the entire width.
Commissioner RASPLICKA seconded the motion
with Commissioner JOHNSON voting against.

June 17, 1993
1. Lutheran Medical Center Pedestrian Walkway Plan
Mr. Gidley brought the Commission up-to-date on the proposed
pedestrian. walkway plan, using a projected transparency showing
the site plan.
Discussion followed. Mr. Gidley stated that the plan would
become a part of the permanent record-and should LMC apply for an
amendment, the improvements noted on this pedestrian walkway plan
will be added to any amended site plan.
2. Planned Project Profile Assessment Tour (July 8)
Mr. Gidley urged Commission members to adc~ to the .proposed list _-
of-sites i.£ 'they desired.- -Commissioner ECKHARDT asked to_add the
new Morningside Retirement Center to the proposed list.
Discussion followed.
10. NEW BUSINESS
1. Commissioner ECKHARDT brought to Commission's.attention_
an award nomination form received at this meeting from Colorado.-
APA. He was dismayed that no recent .Wheat Ridge project came to
mind to nominate for such an award.
Discussion followed. Mr. Gidley thought that perhaps the new CAP
(Citizens Awareness Program) or the West 32nd Avenue
Reconstruction project might,be a candidate_£or such an award ,----
next year.
Chairman LANGDON commented on various aspects. of the City that
could be improved. He thought perhaps the upcoming tour would be
an opportunity to discuss this further.
11. DISCUSSION AND DECISION ITEMS
12. COMMITTEE & DEPARTMENT REPORTS
Commissioner QUALTERI reported that regarding his research on the
feasibility of consolidating .the sewer and water districts, he
had received directions from_the City Administrator, Bob
Middaugh, to discontinue his efforts.- Mr. Middaugh feels the
Planning Commission lacks the authority to initiate this process. --
The City Attorney, Kathryn Schroeder, has been given instructions
by Mr. Middaugh not to provide legal assistance regarding this ,
matter-. - -
