APPROVAL OF AGENDA
Without objection, the agenda was adopted.
CITIZENS’ RIGHT TO SPEAK
No one came forward to speak on subjects not on the agenda.
PUBLIC HEARING AND ORDINANCES ON SECOND READING
Discussion of this item began at approx. 7:07pm, 7 minutes into the recording of the session. 1. Council Bill 02-2020 – An Ordinance amending Chapter 26 of the Wheat Ridge
Code of Laws, concerning residential group home and substance abuse clinic
zoning requirements.
Councilmember Hoppe introduced Council Bill 02-2020. The zoning code currently regulates a variety of non-traditional residential living arrangements, including group homes for the elderly and children as well as treatment
clinics. The code fails, however, to recognize certain types of arrangements including
group homes for disabled persons. The enclosed ordinance eliminates distinctions that no longer have a meaningful land use planning purpose and imposes neutral
City Council Minutes February 10, 2020 page 2
nondiscriminatory zoning regulations upon residential group homes for disabled
persons. City Clerk Steve Kirkpatrick assigned Ordinance 1684. Mayor Starker opened the public hearing. Staff Presentation
Mr. Dahl explained the need for this ordinance in light of a Federal law regarding housing. He explained how and why zoning decisions and ordinances are subject to
that Federal law, based on a number of court decisions.
Mr. Dahl recommended passage of this ordinance in order to bring Wheat Ridge into compliance with Federal statutes. The current zoning code, which has been in force for more than 20 years, is non-compliant.
Mr. Dahl explained in detail the reasons behind some of the specific provisions in the
ordinance with respect to numbers of residents, different types of facilities, and how the language in the ordinance treats different situations.
Public Comment
Ms. Kim James, of 12063 W. 31st Place, Wheat Ridge. Ms. James is a neighbor of a group home for treatment of substance abuse and addiction. While showing
compassion for those who live in the group home nearby, she felt is equally important to consider the quality of life among nearby residents. She explained the typical timeline for substance abuse treatment, including the point in their recovery when recovering patients move to a group home. She urged council to limit the numbers of residents allowed in one group home in a residential area, due to the large numbers of vehicles
parked nearby the home. She asserted that parking so many vehicles creates safety concerns for children, the elderly and disabled. She cited research into fraud and abuse of insurance coverage in group substance abuse treatment homes. Ms. James concluded with a request that the City regulate and monitor these group homes to ensure that their presence does not unduly impact the quality of life in our city’s
neighborhoods.
Ms. Truda Moreau, of 3101 Union St., Wheat Ridge. The resident stated that her living room window faces a sober living home on her block. She asserted that the sober living home came to her neighborhood “seemingly overnight.” Suddenly, the block had
increased traffic and various people coming and going at all hours. Out of state
licensed vehicles frequently appear. The presence of the home, she feels, “has destroyed the character of our R-1 neighborhood.” She expressed the home that the City can help control sober living facilities and restore her neighborhood environment.
City Council Minutes February 10, 2020 page 3
Council Questions
Councilmembers had questions and comments:
Perhaps we need to do more outreach to the operators and staff of sober living facilities, concerning the certification of homes and periodic required reporting by operators to the City.
How does the proposed ordinance deal with on-street parking for group homes,
and parking space for staff and residents?
There were specific questions about requirements for parking spaces based on the number of residents, peak staffing numbers and on- vs. off-street parking at or near the premises of the group home.
Who will approve and issue special use permits?
If a group home with, for instance, 12 residents, cannot meet the requirements to operate under this new ordinance, and must reduce their headcount to 8 residents, would that facility get grand-parented under the new ordinance?
How will we determine the specific effective date of the new ordinance at the end of the 6-month grace period stated in the proposed ordinance?
Will the names of residents/patients appear on any of the filing required by the City, and if so, would that information be discloseable under the Colorado Open Records Act (CORA)?
Could the City provide a “good neighbor packet,” to facilities that get certified as
group homes, to provide guidance on how to avoid friction with nearby residents?
Item 5 on page 7 appears to place an unfair or undue burden on group homes in terms of what meetings they can host at a group home, vs. the rights of other residents in the same neighborhood to host peaceable assemblies.
There were questions about how to distinguish among a gathering at a residence, such as a birthday party or political meeting, regularly held periodic
meetings at the group homes, or other peaceable assemblies. Council expressed concern that the City not overtly or passively treat group homes unfairly.
Mr. Dahl discussed the concern raised, the City’s right to limit meetings, and
Colorado statutes related to this kind of group home.
This ordinance deals with a special kind of residence, as compared to a family home. Group homes are also businesses, because they accept payments for services rendered. Treating them differently from a private family residence is therefore on solid legal ground.
Mayor Starker closed the public hearing.

Motion by Councilmember Hoppe to approve Council Bill 02-2020, an ordinance
amending Chapter 26 of the Wheat Ridge Code of Laws, concerning residential group home and substance abuse clinic zoning requirements on second reading, with the following changes: in Section 14 both instances of language stating that this Ordinance take effect within 6 months of the date of this Ordinance is changed to state no later than by July 1, 2020 and that upon second reading that the Ordinance take effect 15
days after final publication. Seconded by Councilmember Urban; motion carried 8-0.
2. Resolution No.10-2020 – A Resolution approving the assignment to the Housing Authority of the City of Lakewood, Colorado, D/B/A Metro West Housing
Solutions of $1,665,506 of the City of Wheat Ridge, Colorado’s 2020 Private
Activity Bond Volume Cap Allocation from the State Ceiling for Private Activity Bonds; and authorizing the execution and delivery of an assignment and other documents in connection therewith
Councilmember Nosler Beck introduced Resolution 10-2020
The City of Wheat Ridge has received an allocation of $1,665,506 for the purpose of issuing Private Activity Bonds (PABs) in 2020 under the state ceiling imposed by the Tax Reform Act of 1987. Staff recommends assigning the City’s allocation to Metro West Housing Solutions which has agreed to issue PABs for the renovation of the Caesar Square Apartments owned and operated by the Jefferson County Housing
Authority (JCHA). The City also assigned its 2019 PAB cap to West Metro Housing Solutions for this same project. JCHA is asking for the City’s 2020 allocation to help increase the hard costs of improvements to Caesar Square from $6 million to approximately $10 million.
Mayor Starker opened the public hearing.
Staff Presentation
Mr. Goff recounted the key points and issues in this proposed action, referring to previous meetings and discussions. He noted that this is the first time Wheat Ridge has been able to take advantage of this program to provide affordable housing. There is no
cost to the City to implement this project.
Public Comment - No one came forward to speak.
Council Questions
One member observed that this allocation must be used or it will be lost.
Council had no further questions.
Mayor Starker closed the public hearing.

ORDINANCES ON FIRST READING
3. Council Bill 03-2020 – An Ordinance amending Section 1-5 of the Wheat Ridge
Code of Laws concerning penalties for municipal court violations.
Councilmember Weaver introduced Council Bill 03-2020.
The Colorado legislature passed House Bill 1148 in 2019 amending the length of time to
which a person may be sentenced for violations of municipal laws. In a prior session, the state also increased the amount of the fine that municipal courts could impose for such violations of municipal laws. This ordinance modifies the Code Laws accordingly. Motion by Councilmember Weaver to approve Council Bill 03-2020 - an ordinance amending Section 1-5 of the Wheat Ridge Code of Laws concerning penalties for municipal court violations, on first reading, order it published, public hearing set for
Monday, February 24, 2020 at 7:00 p.m. in City Council Chambers, and that it take effect 15 days after final publication; seconded by Councilmember Urban; carried 8-0.
CITY MANAGER’S MATTERS
Mr. Goff welcomed newly appointed Chief Murtha of the WRPD.
Tuesday February 18th, Hacienda Colorado opens.
Mr. Johnstone announced the forthcoming rollout of a new citizen’s information system, Wheat Ridge Speaks. It is live now and will be in place for the City Council meeting on March 9th. The City has postcard information handouts available at City Hall and business card-sized handouts for Councilmembers.
CITY ATTORNEY’S MATTERS
None.
ELECTED OFFICIALS’ MATTERS
Councilmember Hutchinson announced that the next meeting on the closure of the Jefferson County Fairgrounds will convene at the Jefferson County Building on
February 25th at 8:00 AM.
Councilmember Nosler Beck thanks staff for all of its hard work on the group home Ordinance.
Councilmember Weaver commented that the fairgrounds closing is directly a result of the failure of Proposition 1A in last November’s election.
City Council Minutes February 10, 2020 page 6
Councilmember Urban asked for a brief document explaining open meetings laws,
public records and Councilmembers communications. Mr. Dahl agreed to address the request.
Councilmember Hultin thanked staff for rewording the accommodation language at the top of the agenda, and the new wording is inclusive and encourages participation by all
members of the public, including those with disabilities.
Ms. Hultin also announced the first District II Forth Saturday Meeting. She will meet on the fourth Saturday of every month, starting February 22nd, from 9:00-10:00 AM with residents at the Starbucks in the Safeway Cafe at 38th Avenue and Wadsworth. Any interested citizen from across the City is welcome to attend. At this first meeting the topics will be Wheat Ridge Speaks and the Wadsworth redevelopment project.
She attended the Stevens Elementary PTO meeting last week and was excited to hear that that registrations are full for both the kindergarten and fifth grade, which represents a wonderful turn-around for that school.
Ms. Hultin also noted her gratitude and appreciation for the Wheat Ridge Speaks
business-card sized handouts provided to Councilmembers and the Mayor for
distribution to citizens.
Councilmember Stites thanked staff for the good job of snow removal following recent storms.
Mr. Stites also expressed the hope that the new efforts to regulate group homes will prove helpful to District III residents, as he heard many comments about those group
homes during his walks as the election campaign last fall progressed.
Mayor Starker commented that his Coffee with the Mayor last week went well and encouraged all to attend the next Coffee with the Mayor. This event is held the second Saturday of each month.
ADJOURN TO SPECIAL STUDY SESSION The meeting adjourned at 8:24 pm.

CITIZEN COMMENT ON AGENDA ITEMS
No one from the public came forward to speak.
1. Enforcement of snow removal policy
Discussion began at 8:35 pm, approximately 95:00 minutes into the recording of the
session
Staff Report(s)
Mr. Goff noted that Commander Jim Lorenz of WRPD is here to address snow removal enforcement.
Commander Lorenz briefed Council on the background of snow removal efforts in Wheat Ridge and the current efforts at enforcement of the snow removal ordinance.
Currently, citizens and businesses that do not remove snow in a timely manner are
given a warning, and if they still do not comply, a citation.
Currently the time period between warning and citation is 10 days, which makes little sense with respect to snow removal. The new proposed code would require compliance within 24 hours.
Mayor Starker and Councilmembers had questions and comments:
• The majority of property owners do comply, and remove snow within 24 hours.
However, a handful of residences and businesses consistently fail to comply.
• How do we make sure that our principal corridors are safe for drivers, cyclists
and pedestrians?
STUDY SESSION NOTES; February 10, 2020 Page -2-
• What is the plan in terms of invoicing businesses for snow removal, or fines for
non-compliance?
• Thanks to the staff for its thorough work on this matter. Councilmembers spoke in
favor of fines for non-compliance. There was also a suggestion that the City
identify repeat commercial facilities that fail to comply and proactively address
those locations.
• There were specific questions about how and in what priority order the City
handles snow removal along major corridors and sidewalks along city owned
properties. Staff explained the policies, procedures and practices in detail.
• Staff also explained the limitations of the current equipment and staffing plan.
They also explained the difficulties inherent in snow and ice removal from
sidewalks along the major corridors with different dimensions of sidewalks, curbs,
landscaping, and build-outs.
• How do we handle snow removal from properties where residents are unable to
remove snow, because they are elderly, disabled or lack resources?
• What is the typical timeline for removing snow from major corridors and then
moving to side streets in residential areas?
• Several councilmembers discussed the need for public education about the
ordinance, when to time the removal of snow from sidewalks in relation to City
plows, and similar factors.
• Several councilmembers thanked the staff for the excellent job the City does with
snow removal, especially along major corridors (that should be CDOT’s
responsibility).
• One councilmember reported that she drove today along both 44th Ave and 38th
Ave from Youngfield to Sheridan. The problem locations, where snow had not
been removed from sidewalks, were almost all businesses. She also observed
that there are too many miles of major corridors with no sidewalks.
• The City needs to be clear about when a storm ends, and therefore when the 24
hour clock starts, what happens when a new storm begins, and how residents
can determine when the 24-hour clock starts and then starts again if there is
more snowfall. For instance, we recently had a storm that ended in the early
hours this morning, and a second storm arrived around sunset today.
• Several councilmembers stated that enforcement of the snow removal ordinance
along commercial corridors should be the top priority. The City should be
proactive with commercial corridors and reactive in residential areas.
• Several members expressed support for citations like parking tickets, vs. the City
removing snow and invoicing residents or businesses for the cost.
STUDY SESSION NOTES; February 10, 2020 Page -3-
Staff commented that each storm is different, depending on a number of variables
involved in the situation: blizzard conditions, high winds, sudden freezes, glaze with
snow on top, etc.
Councilmember Hoppe obtained a consensus among the Councilmembers to bring forth
a recommended action that would continue to work on the education as laid out in
memo prepared for tonight’s Council packet, pause work on assistance, continue to
work on a traffic-ticket-like system for violations of the snow removal Code, find
abandoned areas, focused on proactive enforcement in commercial areas and reactive
enforcement in residential areas.
2. 44th Avenue historic barn update
Discussion began at 9:01 pm, approximately 121:00 minutes into the recording of the
session
Issue:
At the June 10, 2019 City Council meeting, the historic barn property owner at 11480 W.
44th Avenue was denied removal of the requested historic designation of the barn. City
Council asked staff to work together with the owner of the historic barn property and
return with reasonable considerations for the property moving forward.
Staff Report(s)
Marianne Schilling, Assistant to the City Manager, gave a presentation on the 44th
Avenue Barn. She described the structure itself and the surrounding terrain.
Mayor Starker and Councilmembers had questions and comments:
• We need a lot more detailed information on the particulars, pros and cons for
each option staff presented before Council can make an informed decision.
• At this point, we should pursue a Historic Structures Assessment (HSA) grant to
evaluate the structural integrity of the barn and research the total costs of
retaining the structure via one means or another.
• Bonnie Botham, Secretary of the WR Historical Society, noted that the barn is in
an inaccessible location. The Historical Society has space at another location, to
which the barn could be moved. The Society’s Five-Year Plan focuses on
creating a location where people can see and appreciate what life was like in
Wheat Ridge in the period between the Civil War and Statehood, through the end
of the Nineteenth Century.
• City staff commented that moving the barn would prove problematic, mostly
because the first floor and walls are concrete poured about 150 years ago.
STUDY SESSION NOTES; February 10, 2020 Page -4-
• A councilmember commented that the City needs to have a plan for what we
would do with the structure when and if we pursue any of the various options
available.
• Mr. Johnstone commented that acquiring the barn and adjacent property to the
south and west would provide a reasonable addition to the existing Prospect
Park.
• The property where the barn is located has limited value because of the historic
designation; a new owner of the property would be constrained by the current
historic designation of the barn.
Councilmember Hoppe obtained a consensus among the Councilmembers to bring forth
a recommendation to pursuit of a grant of not to exceed $10,000 to conduct a Historic
Structures Assessment.
2. Staff Report(s)
There were no new reports, as the staff had presented their reports to the Mayor and
Council within the hour during the Regular Council Meeting.
3. Elected Officials’ Report(s)
No reports for the same reason as the paragraph immediately above.

TITLE: RESOLUTION NO. 11-2020 – A RESOLUTION AMENDING THE FISCAL YEAR 2020 GENERAL FUND BUDGET TO REFLECT THE APPROVAL OF A SUPPLEMENTAL BUDGET APPROPRIATION IN THE AMOUNT OF $15,000 FOR THE PURPOSE OF PURSUING AND FUNDING A HISTORIC STRUCTURE ASSESSMENT GRANT

_______________________________ City Manager
ISSUE:
Consensus was reached by City Council at the February 10, 2020 study session to pursue a Historic Structure Assessment (HSA) grant for the historical barn property located at 11480 W. 44th Avenue. The maximum grant request is $15,000 with a 50% matching requirement of up to $7,500 and $1,500 will fund the HSA grant writing services of Colorado Preservation, Inc.
(CPI).
PRIOR ACTION: City Council provided consensus to fund up to $15,000 to pursue grant writing services and required matching funds for the State of Colorado’s Historic Structure Assessment grant.
FINANCIAL IMPACT: A supplemental budget appropriation from General Fund undesignated reserves is required to fund this request. The City’s Unrestricted Fund Balance Policy states that “The City will maintain a minimum unrestricted fund balance of at least two months or approximately 17% of
its General Fund operating expenditures.” There are adequate funds in General Fund undesignated reserves to meet this request.

Council Action Form – 44th Ave Historic Barn HSA Grant Application Budget Supplemental
February 24, 2020
Page 2
BACKGROUND:
At the June 10, 2019 City Council meeting, the historic barn property owner at 11480 W. 44th Avenue was denied removal of the historic designation of the barn. City Council asked staff to work together with the owner of the historic barn property and return with reasonable considerations for the property moving forward.
At the February 10, 2020 study session, staff presented City Council several options: 1) reconsider removal of historic designation, 2) pursue Historic Structure Assessment (HSA) grant, 3) consider pursuit of property acquisition by City of Wheat Ridge, and 4) no action. City Council provided consensus to move forward with the HSA application, which included grant writing services from CPI
and the maximum required matching funds should the City be awarded the grant.
HSA grants are awarded by the State of Colorado for the sole purpose of preparing a report on the physical condition of a historic building or structure. All HSAs must be prepared by an architect or a structural engineer as subject matter experts in historical building assessments. The HSA report includes
cost estimates for rehabilitation and classifies those costs based upon critical, serious and minor
deficiencies. The HSA may also evaluate the historic value/integrity of the structure and assess its potential for listing as a National Register property. Only public and non-profit entities are eligible to apply for the grant.
The grant request would be up to $10,000 with the option to request an additional $5,000 to hire
specialized consultants. The grant requires a 50% match (up to $7,500) from the City because the property is privately owned. Given the expertise required and detailed report provided, HSAs typically take about one year to complete. Additionally, City staff do not have the expertise in historical preservation necessary to complete this specialized application. CPI provides technical grant writing
expertise for HSA grants and has quoted the City $1,500 for grant writing services.
RECOMMENDATIONS: None
RECOMMENDED MOTION:
“I move to approve Resolution No. 11-2020, a resolution amending the fiscal year 2020 General Fund budget to reflect the approval of a supplemental budget appropriation in the amount of $15,000 for the purpose of pursuing and funding a Historic Structure Assessment grant.”
Or,

ISSUE: On November 27, 2017, the firm AECOM Technical Services, Inc. (AECOM) was selected by the City’s established procurement process to perform professional services to support the City’s delivery of the four Investing 4 the Future (2E) projects. The AECOM contract was established
to provide services over a multi-year period. It was determined in 2017 that tasks and fees will be
renegotiated and brought back to Council each year for approval because the scope and fee may change considerably for each project each year. Action is requested for the approval of 2020 scope and fees.

CAF – 2E Consultant (AECOM) contract extension
February 24, 2020
Page 2 PRIOR ACTION: The original AECOM contract was approved by City Council on November 27, 2017 for the
initial period of December 1, 2017 to December 31, 2018 for ongoing program management services for the Investing 4 the Future program. The amended AECOM contract was approved by City Council on January 28, 2019 for the
period of January 1, 2019 to December 31, 2019 for ongoing program management services for
the Investing 4 the Future program. FINANCIAL IMPACT: Professional service fees directly applicable to the 2E projects are payable from the 2E bond
revenues and will also be supplemented by the 2020 Capital Improvement Program.
Staff has spent the past several weeks negotiating specific tasks and services with AECOM, including fees for the entire 2020 year. Provided per Attachment 1 is an overall Scope of Work (SOW) identifying the expected services, along with an overall breakdown of the anticipated
tasks for each project and estimated hours and cost per task. Based on the approved SOW, the
2020 fee is $1,487,071. This requires a supplemental budget appropriation in the amount of $401,375 funded from 2E reserves in Fund 31. Task orders will be issued for each of the tasks and services will be billed on an hourly basis, and
only for the services actually completed.
BACKGROUND: In November of 2016, Wheat Ridge voters approved a 12-year, ½ cent increase in the City’s sales and use tax rate in order to fund investments that will improve transportation infrastructure,
create opportunities for economic development, and enable additional “place-making” to attract
those wanting to live, work, and do business in Wheat Ridge. A citizen-led task force identified the four projects to be funded from the proceeds of the tax increase as follows: (1) Improvements to Anderson Park and its facilities, (2) Construction of relocated west bound on/off ramps on Interstate 70 for the Clear Creek Crossing mixed use development; (3) Widening of Wadsworth
Boulevard to 6-lanes and transforming it into an attractive multi-modal corridor; and (4)
Improvements to public infrastructure and amenities in support of economic development at the Wheat Ridge · Ward Station area.
The City of Wheat Ridge required professional services assistance for moving forward with the Investing 4 the Future projects. Because of the complexity and magnitude of these projects, the
services of an outside consulting firm were needed to provide an extension of staff. It was
expected that professional services would be needed over at least 4 years, depending on the timing of development and activity in the respective project areas. In general, the services requested include, but were not limited to the following:
CAF – 2E Consultant (AECOM) contract extension
February 24, 2020
Page 3 1. Management and review of public infrastructure projects by the City and others; and
management of land use cases and review of site development plans within the project
areas by developers and private property owners. 2. Construction project management and inspection of private development and public infrastructure projects within the project area. 3. Assistance in identifying and applying for potential grant funds for improvements and in
identifying and preparing agreements to leverage public and private partnership
opportunities within the Wheat Ridge · Ward Station Area. 4. Assistance with public process, outreach, and communication during all project phases, from design through construction.
AECOM was selected through a competitive process and has served as an extension of staff to
ensure that public and private improvement plans are submitted and eventually constructed per
requirements. This required AECOM to engage a multi-disciplinary team that would be available as needed (up to full-time) and potentially on short notice.
Attached is a copy of the 2020 scope of work. Most 2E projects are in or advancing toward construction, so AECOM’s role in 2020 has shifted to construction support.
• Clear Creek Crossing – In 2020, AECOM will continue in their role of providing oversight of the I-70 hook ramp construction and providing inspection services in accordance with CDOT requirements. They will also support the design review of the local streets—Clear Creek Drive and 40th Avenue. AECOM staff have provided
architectural expertise to the Clear Creek Crossing Architectural Control Committee and
will continue in that role. They will have a smaller role in supporting development review as compared with previous years.
• Wadsworth Boulevard Improvements – In 2020, AECOM will provide design review
support and will provide construction oversight and inspection services when the project
advances to construction. Because CDOT will not be providing a Professional Engineer to support the projects, AECOM will serve in that role on behalf of the City.
• Wheat Ridge · Ward Station – In 2020, AECOM will have a diminishing role compared with previous years. They will review design plans for the pedestrian bridge, linear park,
and Ridge/Ward intersection design and support a wayfinding and signage study.
• Anderson Park – This 2E project has been delivered and is not included in the 2020 scope of work.
RECOMMENDATIONS: Over the past several years, AECOM has performed very well on all the tasks that were assigned to them. Staff has been very pleased with their performance, professionalism, timeliness, and cost effectiveness. Appropriate fees for the work have been negotiated in accordance with the specific tasks and services needed. Staff will authorize work to AECOM as specific task orders. Staff recommends approving the budget supplemental appropriation in the amount of $401,375

_______________________________ ______________________________ City Attorney City Manager
ISSUE:
The Colorado legislature passed House Bill 1148 in 2019 amending the length of time to which a person may be sentenced for violations of municipal laws. In a prior session, the state also increased the amount of the fine that municipal courts could impose for such violations of municipal laws. This ordinance modifies the Wheat Ridge Code of Laws
accordingly.
PRIOR ACTION: No prior action.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
While the Ordinance increases the Municipal Judge’s fine authority, in practice, few fines are imposed for higher amounts. The financial impact of the ordinance is likely to be negligible.
BACKGROUND: Section 1-5 of the Wheat Ridge City Code provides that violations of City ordinances are
punishable by a fine of not more than $1,000.00 and imprisonment of no more than one year. This section has not been amended since 1998, although state statutes have permitted the fine amount to be increased by the rate of inflation since 2014. The current
2

February 24, 2020
Page 2 fine amount maximum permitted by state law is $2,650.00. Additionally, last year’s
legislative changes have reduced the term of maximum incarceration from one year to
364 days. Both of these penalties should be adjusted to reflect these changes in state law. RECOMMENDATIONS: Approve the attached Ordinance on second reading.
RECOMMENDED MOTION: “I move to approve Council Bill No. 03-2020, an ordinance amending Section 1-5 of the Wheat Ridge Code of Laws concerning penalties for municipal court violations and that it take effect 15 days after final publication.”
Or, “I move to table indefinitely Council Bill No. 03-2020, an ordinance amending Section 1-5 of the Wheat Ridge Code of Laws concerning penalties for municipal court violations

CHAPTER 26 OF THE WHEAT RIDGE CODE OF LAWS
PERTAINING TO THE DESIGN AND PLATTING OF MULTIFAMILY DEVELOPMENT AND ATTACHED SINGLE FAMILY HOMES (CASE NO. ZOA-20-02)
PUBLIC HEARING ORDINANCES FOR 1ST READING (02/24/2020)
BIDS/MOTIONS ORDINANCES FOR 2ND READING (03/09/2020) RESOLUTIONS
QUASI-JUDICIAL: YES NO
_______________________________ ___________________________________ Community Development Director City Manager
ISSUE: Historically, the zoning code has treated attached single family dwellings, or townhomes, as
general “multifamily” development, and very few standards relate specifically to the townhome building form. Given the increasing prevalence of townhomes and the steady inquiries staff continue to receive, this code amendment updates certain provisions that specifically apply to the design and platting of attached single family dwellings.
PRIOR ACTION: These issues of design and platting were presented to City Council at a study session on January 6, 2020 at which time Council gave staff direction to proceed with a code amendment. Planning Commission will review the proposed ordinance at a public hearing on February 20, 2020. Meeting
minutes from the Planning Commission public hearing will be included with the ordinance for
second reading.
FINANCIAL IMPACT: There are no direct financial impacts to the City.

Council Action Form – Townhome Design & Platting
February 24, 2020
Page 2 BACKGROUND: Site and Building Design
Attached single family dwellings refer to units that are attached, often side-by-side; can be individually owned, such as townhomes or condominiums; and often have exterior entrances to each individual unit. They are distinguished from other attached multifamily products such as apartments which usually have a single public entrance to serve multiple units. For the purpose of
this memo, the terms townhomes and attached single family dwellings are interchangeable.
Depending on the underlying zoning, the building and site design of townhome projects are regulated by the mixed use code, the Architectural and Site Design Manual (ASDM), or by a property-specific planned development document. While some planned developments are written
specifically with townhomes in mind, the mixed use code and ASDM do not distinguish
townhomes and attached single family dwellings from other multifamily building forms. The City of Denver has experienced a proliferation of infill townhome development over the last several years, and they recently modified design standards to address townhomes and specifically
to prohibit “slot home” designs. Slot homes are also called “sideways facing townhomes.” Denver
defined “slot homes” by the combination of several tell-tale features:
• Slot homes are multi-unit residential structures consisting of attached dwelling units arranged side-by-side and often perpendicular to the street.
• Most units have an individual, direct entrance to the exterior, but entrances usually face a side lot line or narrow pedestrian path instead of facing or engaging the street.
• In addition to a lack of street-facing front doors, slot homes also often lack any street-facing articulation such as porches, patios, or windows.
• This lack of street-facing elements is often because individual vehicular garages are generally located beneath each unit and are either visible from the street or comprise the predominant ground floor use.
• Slot homes are often characterized by a lack of pedestrian scaled proportions in their
massing and design, including a lack of material change or floor height distinction. In 2014, the Wheat Ridge City Council adopted a Housing Diversification Strategy which calls for a diverse housing stock in terms of type and price, and townhomes are an important component of that housing stock. Some townhome projects in Wheat Ridge have been criticized or labeled as
“slot homes,” but there are actually several code provisions that prohibit stereotypical “slot home” development in the form and density that Denver has experienced in recent years. Those existing requirements include:
• Stepback and bulk plane requirements ensure increased setbacks and stepbacks for multi-
story structures.
• Building design is required to be “human scale” and required to include articulation features and vertical changes in material.
• Vehicular entrances to buildings are required to be screened from view of the street or
adjacent public space, meaning garage doors may not face the street or be a predominantly visible feature.
Council Action Form – Townhome Design & Platting
February 24, 2020
Page 3
• Stormwater detention requirements and minimum open space standards in Wheat Ridge
ensure there is more landscaping and less intensive development than what Denver has experienced in some areas. The proposed code amendment buttresses existing provisions with several more standards specific
to attached single family dwellings. This ensures that proposed projects are consistent with the
City’s design goals. The code amendment addresses four specific design issues: 1. The ordinance includes provisions that require front facades (those with front doors) be oriented to the street. This ensures that pedestrian features engage the public realm as is
typical of a residential neighborhood.
2. The ordinance includes variation in rooflines as a means to achieving articulation (this was previously incorporated into the ASDM by administrative amendment in Section 4.A.5, but the ASDM does not apply to mixed use districts). 3. The ordinance includes provisions that require variation in plane depth specifically for
attached single family dwellings regardless of the length of the building. This provides
shadow lines and visual interest particularly along the long side of building. 4. The ordinance establishes a maximum of eight (8) side-by-side units within a building. This ensures that building massing remains residential and human in scale.
Historically, staff has been successful in obtaining developer compliance with these design goals
based on more generic language in the code. That said, codifying these requirements specifically for townhomes or attached single-family development is beneficial and would clarify expectations for applicants, the public, and staff.
If the ordinance is approved, the Architectural and Site Design Manual will be updated by staff to
reflect these same four design provisions. Per Section 26-224 of the code, the ASDM is a regulatory document that may be amended and updated by staff. Lot Line Adjustments
Prior to the 2014 overhaul of the subdivision regulations, these regulations were silent to
townhomes. As part of the 2014 code amendment, a townhome plat was defined and provisions were added which acknowledge that townhome plats are unique. Townhomes are attached single-family homes in which the occupant owns the dwelling unit and the underlying or surrounding land, so the underlying lot is often quite small compared with the lot size for a detached single-
family home. The lot width for a townhome is based on the unit width and often ranges from 16 to
24 feet. (See image on next page.) The subdivision regulations now exempt individual townhome lots from lot size and width requirements, so long as the site as a whole meets all zone district density standards (Section 26-
411.C.2.a). The same section requires a plat note to ensure that the townhome lots are not sold or
developed for any purpose other than townhomes.
Council Action Form – Townhome Design & Platting

Page 4 Townhome plats are usually approved and recorded
prior to construction, and unit width is set by the lot
width on the plat. Many townhome builders have various floorplan options and unit widths, and homebuyer preferences determine which units are ultimately sold and constructed. As these projects are
developed over time (often multiple years),
homebuyer and market preferences can shift, and because of this, requests for lot line adjustments are more frequent for townhomes than for detached single family projects.
For example, the developers of two recently approved townhome projects have indicated that based on market demand they may be seeking to narrow a handful of units. This in turn may require
that some of the lots be narrowed. In addition, at one
townhome project, there may be a need to modify internal lot lines a few inches because of a CAD error that puts the divisional wall between units slightly offset from the location that lot lines were
drawn. Because lot lines are coterminous with
divisional walls, townhome lots leave no leeway for design adjustments. The only way to accommodate design adjustments for townhomes is to process a lot line adjustment (LLA). Under current regulations, a LLA is processed in the same manner as any
subdivision application: LLAs that affect more than three lots require the plat to be reviewed at
public hearings. The resources expended by staff and decisions makers to review LLAs for townhomes at a public hearing may be inefficient and is disproportionate with the extent of the proposed substantive changes.
Because of the unique and minor nature of a lot line adjustment for an approved townhome
development and because of the significant staff resources associated with reviewing plats, the code amendment modifies this process. The proposed ordinance establishes a new and narrow classification of administrative plats for lot line adjustments of previously approved townhome plats that comply with the following criteria:
• do not create new or additional lots or parcels
• do not materially alter the subdivision design
• conform to all subdivision and zoning regulations.
RECOMMENDATIONS: Staff recommends approval of the ordinance.
This image shows the typical building form and plat for a
townhome development. In the bottom image, individual lot
lines are indicated by the dashed lines, and those lot lines dictate unit width.

TITLE: AN ORDINANCE AMENDING CHAPTER 26 OF THE WHEAT RIDGE CODE OF LAWS PERTAINING TO THE DESIGN AND PLATTING OF MULTIFAMILY DEVELOPMENT AND ATTACHED SINGLE FAMILY HOMES
WHEREAS, the City of Wheat Ridge (“City”) is a home rule municipality
operating under a charter adopted pursuant to Article XX of the Colorado Constitution and vested with the authority by that article and the Colorado Revised Statutes to adopt ordinances for the regulation of land use and protection of the public health, safety and welfare; and
WHEREAS, in exercise of that authority, the City Council of the City of Wheat Ridge has previously enacted Chapter 26 of the Wheat Ridge Code of Laws (the “Code”) pertaining to zoning, land use, and development; and
WHEREAS, Chapter 26 includes regulations pertaining to the design and platting
of residential development; and WHEREAS, the City Council recognizes the need for elevating certain design standards related to attached single family homes (townhomes); and
WHEREAS, the City Council also finds it appropriate to modify the process by which attached single family homes (townhomes) may be replatted; NOW THEREFORE BE IT ORDAINED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY
OF WHEAT RIDGE, COLORADO: Section 1. Section 26-405.A of the Wheat Ridge Code of Laws, regarding types of plats, is amended with the insertion of a new subsection 2 and renumbering the section accordingly:
A. Administrative plat. […]
2. A lot line adjustment of a previously approved townhouse plat shall be considered an administrative plat regardless of the number of lots affected, so long as the replat meets all of the following criteria: a. Does not create new or additional lots or parcels; b. Does not materially alter the subdivision design; and
c. Conforms to all subdivision and zoning regulations and includes no waiver or variance.
2
Section 2. Section 26-1105 of the Wheat Ridge Code of Laws, regarding
building placement and orientation in mixed use zone districts, is amended by the addition of a new subsection F: F. Attached residential development. The following requirements shall apply to
single attached dwellings as defined in Section 26-1119. 1. For units adjacent to public streets, front doors shall be located on the façade that faces the public right-of-way. For developments with more than one (1) building, street-facing orientation of front doors is not required for all buildings or dwelling units but shall be the predominant
orientation across the overall development. 2. Structures shall be comprised of no more than eight (8) side-by-side units. 3. Separation between primary structures shall be a minimum of 10 feet.
Section 3. Section 26-1106.B of the Wheat Ridge Code of Laws, regarding building design in mixed use zone districts, is amended as follows: B. Façade design and articulation.
1. All façades of a building shall provide a level of finished architectural quality and be designed to human scale. Each façade shall contain at least one (1) change in color or texture. Additional detail should be incorporated into the façade design by the use of at least three (3) of the following methods:
• Reveals.
• Belt courses.
• Cornices.
• Expression of a structural or architectural bay.
• Articulation of windows and doorways, which may include sills,
mullions, or pilasters that create a three-dimensional expression.
• Change in material.
• Variation in rooflines. 2. All façades of a building that face a street or a public space shall have at least one (1) variation in plane depth of at least one (1) foot for every fifty (50) linear feet of the length of the façade. All other façades shall have one (1) variation in plane depth of at least one (1) foot for every one hundred (100)
linear feet of the length of the façade. Any portion of a façade that is a glass curtain wall shall be exempted from this requirement. For single attached dwellings as defined in Section 26-1119, the
façade(s) containing front doors shall have a change in plane depth of at least one (1) foot for every unit. This may be achieved by a change in the wall plane within a single unit façade or by varying the plane depth of adjacent units. See Figure 26-1106.2.
3
Figure 26-1106.2 – Variation in Plane Depth for Single Attached
Dwellings: For the building on the left, changes in plane depth occur by varying the plane depth of adjacent units. For the building on the right, changes in plane depth occur within each unit façade. The requirement to vary plane depth does not necessarily require offsets in the building foundation and may be achieved by a variety of
articulation and design elements noted in subsection 26-1106.B.3 below. 3. Non-permanent features such as canopies and awnings will not qualify as variation. Plane depth variation may be accomplished through elements such
as:
• Recessed entries.
• Porticos.
• Projecting porches.
• Upper level stepbacks.
• Dormers.
• Offsets in the general plane of the façade, including columns, pilasters, protruding bays, reveals, fins, ribs, balconies, cornices or eaves.
4. The primary entrance of a building shall be emphasized through at least two (2) of the following architectural elements:
• Changes in wall plane or building massing.
• Differentiation in material and/or color.
• Higher level of detail.
• Enhanced lighting. This requirement for an entry feature shall also apply to the primary exterior entrances for single attached dwellings.
4
Section 4. Section 26-1119 of the Wheat Ridge Code of Laws, regarding the
definition of single attached dwellings, is amended as follows:
Dwelling, single attached. Three (3) or more dwelling units where each unit is attached to other units by party walls, and where habitable spaces of different units are arranged
side-by-side, rather than a stacked configuration. This can include, but is not limited to, townhomes with exterior entrances. Section 5. Section 26-1119 of the Wheat Ridge Code of Laws is amended by the adding a definition for multiple dwelling in the appropriate alphabetical
location:
Dwelling, multiple. Three (3) or more dwelling units where each unit is attached to other units, where habitable spaces are arranged in a stacked configuration, and where a building includes a common public entrance but interior entrances to
each unit. Section 6. Safety Clause. The City Council hereby finds, determines, and declares that this Ordinance is promulgated under the general police power of the City of Wheat Ridge, that it is promulgated for the health, safety, and welfare
of the public and that this Ordinance is necessary for the preservation of health
and safety and for the protection of public convenience and welfare. The City Council further determines that the Ordinance bears a rational relation to the proper legislative object sought to be attained.
Section 7. Severability, Conflicting Ordinances Repealed. If any section,
subsection or clause of this Ordinance shall be deemed to be unconstitutional or
otherwise invalid, the validity of the remaining sections, subsections and clauses shall not be affected thereby. All other ordinances or parts of ordinances in conflict with the provisions of this Ordinance are hereby repealed.
Section 8. Compliance Required – Applicability. This Ordinance shall apply
to all development which does not by the effective have a vested property right, pursuant to the provisions of Section 26-121 of the Code of Laws of the City of Wheat Ridge.

Parties, nor limit the powers and responsibilities of any other entity not a Party hereto.

between the Parties. The Parties shall be responsible for their own acts and the
conduct of their respective employees without waiving any protections afforded by
the Colorado Governmental Immunity Act.

funding hereunder constitutes a current expense of the Parties payable exclusively
from the Parties’ funds and appropriated each fiscal year and shall not in any way be
construed to be a multi-fiscal year debt or other financial obligations within the
meaning of Article X, Section 20 of the Colorado Constitution, a general obligation
indebtedness of the Parties within the meaning of any provision of Article XI of the
Colorado Constitution, or any other constitutional or statutory indebtedness.
8.7. GOVERNING LAW AND VENUE. This MOU shall be governed by the laws of the
State of Colorado. Venue for any action arising under this MOU will be in the

each of which shall be deemed to be an original and all such counterparts taken
together shall be deemed to constitute one and the same instrument. The Parties
acknowledge and agree that the original of this MOU, including the signature page,
may be scanned and stored in a computer database or similar device, and that any
printout or other output readable by sight, the reproduction of which is shown to
accurately reproduce the original of this MOU, may be used for any purpose as if it
were the original, including proof of the content of the original writing.
8.10. GOVERNMENT IMMUNITY. No portion of this MOU shall be deemed to
constitute a waiver of any immunities the Parties, or their officers or employees may
possess, nor shall any portion of this MOU be deemed to have created a duty of care
which did not previously exist with respect to any person not a party to this MOU.
