Issue
The proposed ordinance establishes a deadline by which an applicant may appeal an

appeal.

Issue
Colorado Senate Bill 21-260 created a clean fleet enterprise to impose a clean fleet
retail delivery fee (CFRDF) to be paid by the purchaser of tangible personal property
delivered to the purchaser by a motor vehicle. The fee is $0.27 per delivery. Delivery
fees are currently subject to City sales tax. As a home-rule City, Wheat Ridge is able to
establish its own laws including the ability to exempt from taxation certain goods and
services. The attached ordinance exempts the CFRDF from taxation.
Motion by CM Hutchinson to approve Council Bill 05-2023, an ordinance amending
sections 22-58 and 22-67 of the Wheat Ridge Code of Laws to establish an exemption

Public Comment
No one came forward to speak.
Council Questions and comments
CM Ohm had a number of questions. On page 251, changes were added for flood
control. Several items in landscaping and irrigation costs drew his attention. He gave
an example of a valve that is listed at $800 which he believes can be purchased and
installed for much less. Why does the wildlife biologist get paid $10 an hour but there
are others paid at a higher rate? He recommended that we remove the landscaping
and irrigation costs from this item until we can get better pricing. Ms. D’Andrea gave a
detailed response. CM Ohm also recommended that we not use overhead sprinklers
but drip irrigation instead to save costs and water.
CM Hoppe asked whether we can look-back when the landscaping and irrigation is
actually installed in 2024 or 2025. Ms. D’Andrea replied in the negative.
CM Hutchinson asked why we are irrigating/watering in median strips at all. Ms.
D’Andrea gave a specific answer.
Motion by CM Hultin to approve a contract amendment with Concrete Works of
Colorado, Inc. of Lafayette, Colorado for Phase IIA of the Improve Wadsworth Project,
subject to CDOT approval, in the amount of $11,144,015.87 with an additional
contingency of $750,000 for a total of $11,894,015.87, seconded by CM Hoppe, with
one friendly amendment (below); motion carried 8-0.
CM Hultin made a friendly amendment to her motion to direct staff to investigate
changing the irrigation to drip irrigation.
Council passed the friendly amended motion 8-0.
CITY MANAGER’S MATTERS
Mr. Goff nothing more tonight.
CITY ATTORNEY’S MATTERS
Mr. Dahl gave a legal opinion on questions related to whether one resident may serve
on two boards or commissions at the same time.
ELECTED OFFICIALS’ MATTERS
City Clerk Kirkpatrick reminded CM that this annual exercise of appointing board and
commission members also comes before Council when we have an opening going
forward. He reminded all that the applications remain on file for one year, that when an
opening occurs we must advertise that opening before selecting appointees, and that
when an out of district appointee vacates the seat, we must appoint someone from that
district to serve in their home district.
CM Hutchinson asked about the stop sign she suggested in a previous meeting. She
also thanked those who have volunteered to serve on boards and commissions.
CM Nosler Beck thanked all who applied for a seat on a board or commission, and of
course thanked them for serving. Service on a board or commission repays the
volunteer with an opportunity to learn and make the City a better place to live. She
announced Monday March 6th at WR High School, 5:30 to 7 pm, Jeffco Schools is
having a public dialogue. Out of Step Clay will celebrate their first anniversary soon.
CM Hultin recalled the proclamation made earlier for women leaders. She thanked the
staff and Clerk’s Office for the work done on the boards and commissions process. She
is amazed at the quality of the pool we had this year, and thanked all who participated.
She serves on the Partners in Progress through Local Works, which will meet on March
15. She started her learning about how the City works by participating in a similar event
years ago.
CM Dozeman thanked all who applied and all who serve on boards and commissions.
Thanks to the staff for supporting the process. If you were not appointed this time,
please, stay tuned and involved. There are also a lot of other ways to volunteer to
move the City forward. She thanked Local Works for all of their excellent work.
CM Weaver noted that people who serve on boards and commissions receive some of
the best SWAG ever at the annual Boards and Commissions recognition dinner. We
are having a District III meeting at 9 am on March 11 at the Rec Center. She thanked
all who serve on boards and commissions, and the ladies who accepted the
proclamation earlier this evening.
CM Ohm attended the affordable housing event in Arvada last week. He met several
people who are interested in affordable housing, which he found encouraging. He
specially thanked Director D’Andrea for her help in reviewing the project we discussed
in item 7, along with Mr. Goff and Ms. Scheck. He is often asked how he likes serving
on Council, which he enjoys, and he sincerely thanked everyone for their help and
support.
CM Hoppe drew attention to the WR High School musical this Thursday, Friday and
Saturday: Singing in the Rain. She also asked for a Study Session to look at the
current code language around boards and commissions. There are probably other
changes we could make, especially with the application process. Consensus was
achieved. She thanked the other members of Council for their hard work tonight.
MPT Stites thanked the staff and all who applied to serve on boards and commissions.
He also noted the District III meeting on March 11. WR High School bond funding is
about to appear on a Jeffco School Board agenda soon. At this point, it looks like that
item will receive favorable consideration. He also stated he hopes the 70-year-old gym
floor at WR High School will be replaced soon. Please, attend these sessions to send
the message that we are involved. We are excited about recent ribbon cuttings for 5
new businesses! If you can find it in WR, please, buy it in WR.
Mayor Starker noted the frequent new business ribbon cuttings. He thanked all for a
good meeting tonight. He noted the high quality of the ladies who lead in WR. He
thanked all who applied to serve on boards and commissions; stepping up to do that
makes the City run well. He congratulated Local Works on the effort to bring Makers
Space to WR. He also lauded the WR Theater Company on their recent production of
Cyrano de Bergerac and hoped people will attend upcoming productions. He thanked
Ms. D’Andrea for her hard work on the Wadsworth project. He also noted how proud he
is of City, our Council, our staff and the volunteers who serve. Please, drive carefully
through the coming bad weather later in the week.

Community Development Director City Manager ISSUE: The Colorado Water Conservation Board has designated the updated Flood Hazard Delineation Map for Clear Creek as a state floodplain map. The City needs to adopt the updated Flood
Hazard Delineation Map as a Local Flood Hazard Area so that the best available flood maps can be used to regulate the floodplains along Clear Creek.
PRIOR ACTION: On January 13, 2014, Council adopted the Jefferson County Digital Flood Insurance Rate Maps
(DFIRM) that included updates to the floodplains along Clear Creek.
On May 23, 2022, Council adopted the updated Jeffco DFIRM maps that included updates to the floodplains in the Sloan’s Lake watershed.
The Planning Commission reviewed the proposed ordinance at a public hearing on February 2, 2023. The Commission recommended approval of the ordinance.

City Council approved this ordinance on first reading on February 27, 2023. A motion was made by Councilmember Dozeman and seconded by Councilmember Hoppe and was approved by a
vote of 8 to 0.
FINANCIAL IMPACT: There will be no direct financial impact to the City if the ordinance is approved.
BACKGROUND: Existing Floodplain Maps
There are three flood hazard areas in Wheat Ridge: one associated with Clear Creek, one
associated with Lena Gulch, and one associated with the Ashland Drainage which is tributary to Sloan’s Lake. The Clear Creek and Lena Gulch floodplains traverse the City diagonally from west to east. The southeast corner of Wheat Ridge, an area of approximately 500 acres, is included in the Ashland Drainage which extends west along 26th Avenue between Gray and
Quay Streets.
There are two types of regulated flood hazard areas in the City: the federally regulated Special Flood Hazard Area (SFHA) and locally regulated Local Flood Hazard Area (LFHA). In Wheat Ridge, the floodplains along Clear Creek, Lena Gulch, and Ashland Drainageway are part of the SFHA. Two tributaries to the Ashland Drainageway that extend north of 26th Avenue along Gray
and Quay Streets are currently the City’s only LFHAs. The attached map shows these flood
hazard areas.
Floodplain Map Updates Periodically, floodplain maps are updated to reflect changes to the watershed to better define high flood risk areas. This includes physical changes (such as changes in the stream channel,
land use, and development), changes in hydrology or flows, and/or improved technology or
calculation methods. The goal of the updates is to accurately reflect the flood risk to properties along major drainageways. Sometimes the boundaries of the floodplains are wider when updates are done and at other times, the boundaries narrow with the updates.
The Clear Creek and Lena Gulch maps were last updated in 2014 when the Jeffco DFIRM was
adopted by Council. These updates were based on FHADs that were done in 2007. In those
updates, the floodplain boundaries along Clear Creek were most often wider than the previous maps. Whereas, along the Lena Gulch, the boundaries narrowed in many instances.
The Sloan’s Lake SFHA was last updated in 2022 when the updated Jeffco DFIRM was adopted by Council. This update included very minor changes to the boundaries that didn’t affect any
structures. Prior to the 2022 adoption, City Council had adopted LFHAs in 2019 for the low-
lying areas that did include structures and that are prone to flooding along two tributaries to the Ashland Drainage that extend north of 26th Avenue along Gray and Quay Streets.
Clear Creek Map Updates Mile High Flood District (MHFD), along with the Cities of Wheat Ridge and Golden and
Jefferson and Adams Counties, has been working for several years to update the floodplain maps
for Clear Creek.
Council Action Form – Clear Creek Maps March 13, 2023

The first step in the current process to remap Clear Creek was to remodel the hydrology, which determines the peak flows at various locations in the watershed. Until recently, the hydrology
from the 1970s was used to inform the FHAD. In 2015, the City of Golden and MHFD
conducted a preliminary study of the Clear Creek regulatory flows based on data from a stream gauge just upstream of Golden. The results of that study indicated that a reduction to the regulatory hydrology was warranted, based on the decades of stream gauge data.
So, MHFD, along with Wheat Ridge, Golden, Jefferson County and Adams County, developed a
Conditional Letter of Map Revision (CLOMR) based on the reduced flows for Clear Creek from
its confluence with the South Platte River to upstream of U.S. Highway 6. The CLOMR was approved by Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) in January 2017. MHFD and the four jurisdictions recognized the need to modify the floodplain to reflect the lower historical recorded flow data of Clear Creek as outlined in the CLOMR.
These lower flows, as well as more accurate and updated topography and updates to the
calculation software, were then used to update the FHAD which replaces the 2007 FHAD. The new Clear Creek FHAD includes segments of Clear Creek in Wheat Ridge, Golden and unincorporated Jefferson and Adams Counties. Each jurisdiction was responsible for its share of the cost, as determined by creek length that traverses through each jurisdiction. The FHAD
update was administered by MHFD. MHFD financed about 67% of the total project. The City of
Wheat Ridge is responsible for just under 9% of the project cost (about $13,000).
After several years of preparing, reviewing, and revising the mapping, the FHAD was submitted to the Colorado Water Conservation Board (CWCB), the agency that regulates floodplains statewide in late December 2021. On November 17, 2022, the CWCB designated the updated
FHAD for Clear Creek as a state floodplain map.
Proposed Code Amendment & Next Steps Following suit, this ordinance adopts the updated map as a Local Flood Hazard Area for the City so that the best available flood maps can be used to regulate the floodplains along Clear Creek. City Code specifies the exact floodplain map that area adopted, referencing them by name and
date. This code amendment adopts the updated FHAD, dated September 2, 2022, as an additional
LFHA.
If the ordinance is approved, floodplain areas that are within the LFHA, but outside of the current SFHA, would be subject to the City’s floodplain regulations but would not be subject to the mandatory flood insurance requirement. FEMA is currently reviewing the LFHA as well, and
once adopted by FEMA, the area will become SFHA. FEMA review can take two to four years.
Since the regulatory flows used to update the FHAD are around 30% lower than the flows that are in the Jeffco DFIRM, in most places the boundaries of the floodplain and floodway shown on the FHAD are narrower and are closer to the creek. However, there are few instances where the boundaries have widened. Staff is recommending adoption of the FHAD as an LFHA now
(instead of waiting for FEMA) so that the City’s adopted maps reflect best available information.
Council Action Form – Clear Creek Maps March 13, 2023
Page 4
This will prevent property owners from developing their properties within the high-risk areas indicated by the future boundary without including the necessary mitigation required by the
City’s floodplain regulations. The floodplain boundaries in the FHAD better reflect the actual
flood risk since it is based on more current data and calculation methods. Furthermore, it is best practice to have the locally adopted floodplain boundaries match the boundaries adopted by the state and expected to eventually be adopted by FEMA.
Adoption of the updated FHAD helps the City to be in compliance with the National Flood
Insurance Program (NFIP) and also helps the City to continue its high rating in the Community
Rating System (CRS). The City’s long-standing participation and Class 5 rating in the CRS program provides a 25% discount for all flood insurance policies within the City.
Public Outreach A notice was sent to all property owners within the current Clear Creek floodplain, and a
neighborhood meeting was held on February 15, 2023, to educate the residents of adoption of the
updated FHAD as a LFHA. Most of the attendees’ negative comments were related to the delay by FEMA adopting the revised DFIRM.
RECOMMENDATIONS: Staff recommends approval of the ordinance.
RECOMMENDED MOTION:
“I move to approve Council Bill No. 06-2023, an ordinance amending Section 26-803.G of the Wheat Ridge Code of Laws to adopt the Flood Hazard Delineation Maps for Clear Creek, dated September 2, 2022, as a Local Flood Hazard Area, on second reading, and that it take effect 15 days final publication.”
Or,
“I move to postpone indefinitely Council Bill No. 06-2023, an ordinance amending Section 26-803.G of the Wheat Ridge Code of Laws to adopt the Flood Hazard Delineation Maps for Clear Creek, dated September 2, 2022, as a Local Flood Hazard Area, for the following reason(s) __________________.”

7. PUBLIC HEARING A. […]
B. Case No. ZOA-23-02: An ordinance amending Section 26-803.G of the Wheat Ridge Code of Laws, to adopt the flood hazard delineation maps for Clear Creek dated September 2, 2022 as a local flood hazard area.
Mr. Westberg gave a brief presentation on floodplain updates for Clear Creek.
Commissioner DITULLIO asked if the new map gives the City more authority to tell the property owner what they can or can’t do in the floodplain areas.
Mr. Westberg clarified that it will allow the City to regulate the areas that are in a
flood hazard area. Commissioner DITULLIO would like to see the City put funds into mitigating floods by improving drainage, so property owners do not have to pay for flood
insurance.
Ms. Mikulak mentioned that the boundaries are changed periodically to reflect the risk and as data methodologies get better the City can more accurately assess the risk. She agreed that the City does not have a sustainable revenue source to address
drainage and stormwater infrastructure and it will be an upcoming study session
topic with City Council. Mr. Westberg added that in the next month there will be a kick-off for a masterplan for Clear Creek to identify the projects that can modify the creek area to remove property owners from the floodplain, mentioning there will be grant opportunities to find funding sources.
Commissioner LARSON asked how many properties are within the floodway and if there is a map to view. Ms. Mikulak said there are over 100 properties with the most being in the
Clearvale area and Mr. Westberg explained the map and showed the public
websites with the map and study information:
• Clear Creek Floodplain Comparison Map (arcgis.com)
• https://www.iconeng.com/project/ClearCreek_FHAD/
Planning Commission Minutes - 3 - February 2, 2023
Commissioner LARSON inquired as to what has attributed to the change in maps.
Mr. Westberg said it is because the recognition that flows are 30% lower than previously assumed in the older hydrology. Commissioner ANTOL asked to have clarified what this map is actually doing.
Mr. Westberg gave a brief history of flood maps dating back to 2003 and is hoping that sometime this year Clear Creek maps can be submitted to FEMA so properties will be removed from the floodplain which will also remove their mandatory flood insurance requirement.
Commissioner STERN thanked Mr. Westberg for his passion and informative presentation and his help making it understandable and thinks the City has a responsibility to adopt and regulate based on current maps.
Commissioner KERNS asked if the City has funds to construct drainage
improvements. Ms. Mikulak explained that drainage improvements fall under the City’s Capital Improvement Program (CIP). Because the City does not have a sustainable CIP
funding source other sources are used such as bonds and grants. She added that
floodplains do not affect everyone in the City, so it can be a challenge to gain financial support for those projects. Funding of CIP and drainage or floodplain projects will be a topic of conversation with City Council later this year.
Commissioner STERN agrees that public investment is called for and hopes for
investments in the Clear Creek and 44th Avenue areas. Commissioner LARSON noted that amending the floodplain maps is the responsibility of the City and the Planning Commission to approve tonight.
Public Comment No one wished to speak.
It was moved by Commissioner LARSON and seconded by Commissioner LEO to recommend approval of the proposed ordinance amending Section 26-803.G of the Wheat Ridge Code of Laws, to adopt the flood hazard delineation maps for Clear Creek Dated September 2, 2022 as a local flood hazard area.

QUASI-JUDICIAL: YES NO
_______________________________ ______________________________ Community Development Director City Manager ISSUE: The proposed ordinance establishes a deadline by which an applicant may appeal an
administrative code interpretation to the Board of Adjustment. No such deadline currently exists
in the code, and the lack of a deadline is inconsistent with best practice and inconsistent with other code provisions which clearly establish a timeframe for appeal. PRIOR ACTION:
The Planning Commission reviewed the proposed ordinance at a public hearing on February 2,
2023. The Commission recommended approval of the ordinance; minutes from the meeting are enclosed.
City Council approved this ordinance on first reading on February 27, 2023. A motion was made by Councilmember Ohm and seconded by Councilmember Stites and was approved by a vote of
8 to 0.
FINANCIAL IMPACT: There is no cost to the City for enacting this ordinance.
Council Action Form – BOA Appeal Deadline March 13, 2023
Page 2
BACKGROUND: The Zoning and Development Code (Chapter 26 of the Wheat Ridge Code of Laws) is
interpreted and applied on a daily basis by Community Development staff. From time to time,
individuals request a formal code interpretation which is provided in the form of a written letter by the Community Development Director. Individuals who disagree with a Director’s determination can appeal such determination to the Board of Adjustment (BOA).
In the zoning code, Section 26-115.E (variances/waivers/temporary permits/interpretations)
empowers the BOA to hear and decide upon requests for interpretation of the zoning code. This code section does not establish a deadline by which an individual must appeal to the BOA. The attached ordinance proposes that an appeal must be submitted within 30 days of the Director’s determination.
Such interpretation requests are rare—only two BOA interpretations have occurred in the last ten years. Last year, a determination was made on March 30, 2022, regarding the eligibility of a property for a billboard. Over five months later, on September 9, 2022, the applicant submitted an appeal and requested a hearing before the BOA. Based on last year’s appeal and its
significantly delayed submittal, the City Attorney has advised that a time limit on the BOA’s
interpretation authority would be appropriate. Thirty (30) days is recommended. Similar appeal deadlines appear elsewhere in the zoning code:
• Section 26-115.C.2 – Regarding administrative variances: “A written appeal shall be
submitted by the applicant to the community development department within ten (10) days of such administrative decision.”
• Section 26-119.E.2 – Regarding interpretation of zone district boundaries: “Appeals of the community development director’s decisions and interpretations under this section
may be taken to city council by the subject property owner or an adjacent property owner. A written appeal must be received by the community development department within ten (10) days of issuance of the appealed decision.”
• Section 26-305.A.4 – Regarding specific development plans (SDPs): “If the applicant
objects to conditions placed on the approval, or if the specific development plan is denied
by the planning commission, an appeal of the decision may be filed with the city clerk’s office within ten (10) working days from the date of the planning commission’s decision, whereupon the specific development plan will be scheduled for public hearing before city council…”
• Section 26-406.F – Regarding subdivision plats: “A written appeal shall be submitted to the community development department within ten (10) days of a decision.”
• Section 26-808.B.3 – Regarding floodplain permits: “The floodplain administrator shall
render a written decision granting or denying each floodplain permit application. […]
Applicants shall have the right to appeal any decision or condition to the [Building Code Advisory Board (BCAB)]. Such appeal must be filed with the BCAB within thirty (30) days from the date of the floodplain administrator’s decision.”
Council Action Form – BOA Appeal Deadline March 13, 2023
Page 3
Appeal of any local land use decision to district court (a Rule 106 challenge) is required by state statute to occur within 28 days of the City’s final decision.
RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends approval of the ordinance establishing a 30-day time limit on the BOA’s interpretation authority and thereby providing a clear deadline by which an applicant must submit an appeal.
RECOMMENDED MOTION:
“I move to approve Council Bill No. 04-2023, an ordinance amending Section 26-115.E of the Wheat Ridge Code of Laws concerning requests for interpretation by the Board of Adjustment, and that it take effect immediately upon adoption at second reading and signature by the Mayor, as permitted by Section 5.11 of the Charter.”

_______________________________ ______________________________ Deputy City Manager City Manager
ISSUE: Colorado Senate Bill 21-260 created a clean fleet enterprise to impose a clean fleet retail delivery fee (CFRDF) to be paid by the purchaser of tangible personal property delivered to the purchaser
by a motor vehicle. The fee is $0.27 per delivery. Delivery fees are currently subject to City sales
tax. As a home-rule City, Wheat Ridge is able to establish its own laws including the ability to exempt from taxation certain goods and services. The attached ordinance exempts the CFRDF from taxation.
PRIOR ACTION:
Council discussed this subject in Study Session on February 6, 2023. At that meeting, Council
gave direction to staff to move forward with exempting the CFRDF from taxation and to bring forth an ordinance on first reading.
City Council approved this ordinance on first reading on February 27, 2023. A motion was made by Councilmember Hutchinson and seconded by Councilmember Dozeman and was approved by
a vote of 8 to 0.
Retail Delivery Fee Tax Exemption Date: March 13, 2023

FINANCIAL IMPACT: The City does not currently require taxpayers to separately report delivery fee revenues. Therefore,
staff have estimated that based on an analysis of the annual taxable revenues of seven well-known
delivery-based taxpayers, taxation of the $0.27 CFRDF would generate incremental annual sales tax revenue of $500 per year. Analyzed differently, staff estimate that if there are 1,000 daily deliveries in Wheat Ridge, on an annualized basis, incremental annual sales tax revenue from the CFRDF would approximate $3,500. The estimated staff cost to collect tax on the delivery fee is $3,500 per
year. BACKGROUND: Effective July 1, 2022, Senate Bill 21-260 created within the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment a clean fleet enterprise for the purpose of incentivizing and supporting
the use of electric motor vehicles and other clean fleet technologies by owners and operators of
motor vehicle fleets. The clean fleet enterprise is authorized to impose a clean fleet retail delivery fee (CFRDF) to be paid by the purchaser of tangible personal property delivered to the purchaser by a motor vehicle. The fee is $0.27 per delivery.
Per City of Wheat Ridge Code Section 22-21, delivery fees are taxable. Only the clean fee retail
delivery fee is being exempted from the City’s code: all other delivery fees remain taxable.
The State’s fiscal plan for Senate Bill 21-260 revenue is to direct $0.0597 of each $0.27 fee it collects to the Highway Users Tax Fund (HUTF). The City receives an annual distribution from HUTF of over $1,000,000. Staff estimates the State’s fiscal plan for Senate Bill 21-260 will benefit the City with an additional $15,000 annually from HUTF.
The Colorado Municipal League (CML) recommends that home-rule municipalities exempt the fee
from sales tax given the absence of clear direction about taxability of the fee from the State. CML also believes that the fee could potentially trigger a TABOR challenge. The City’s neighbors, including Golden, Denver, Lakewood, and Arvada, have all amended their tax codes to exempt the CFRDF from taxation.
RECOMMENDATIONS: Staff recommends approval of this ordinance. RECOMMENDED MOTION:
“I move to approve Council Bill No. 05-2023, an ordinance amending sections 22-58 and 22-67
of the Wheat Ridge Code of Laws to establish an exemption from the City’s sales and use tax for certain retail delivery fees enacted by the state of Colorado, on second reading, and that it take effect 15 days final publication.”
Or,
“I move to postpone indefinitely Council Bill No. 05-2023, an ordinance amending sections 22-58 and 22-67 of the Wheat Ridge Code of Laws to establish an exemption from the City’s sales

_______________________________ ______________________________ Community Development Director City Manager ISSUE: City Council's 2021-2022 Strategic Plan includes "Re-examine and Advance Sidewalks on 38th Avenue." To that end, a consultant selection process has been completed to perform a master planning study for 38th Avenue from Kipling Street to Youngfield Street. Staff is recommending
that the selected consultant, Ayers Associates, Inc, be awarded a contract in the amount of $615,210.
PRIOR ACTION: On December 6, 2021, staff met with Council to discuss moving this priority project forward. Consensus was received from Council to prepare a scope of work to conduct a planning effort to
modernize 38th West into a complete street that serves automobiles, bicycles, and pedestrians.
On June 6, 2022, the scope of work for the 38th West Study was discussed with Council at study session. Consensus was received to proceed with selecting and hiring a consultant to conduct a
Council Action Form – 38th West Consultant Contract March 13, 2023
Page 2
planning effort to combine public input with technical analysis to develop a recommended alternative(s).
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
This project was not included in the adopted 2023 budget, so a supplemental budget appropriation is required. The final negotiated fee with Ayers is $615,210.
BACKGROUND: The project segment (“38th West”) is 1.75 miles in length and is designated as a minor arterial
on the City's Street Master Plan. Sidewalks on 38th West have been added or improved at a few
scattered locations over the many years by private development projects along the corridor and a few small City funded projects; however, for most of the corridor true multimodal facilities for those that walk, and roll are inadequate or completely lacking.
In 2017, Localworks obtained an "Active Living Neighborhood Grant," from Kaiser Permanente
with support from the City. The purpose of that effort was to increase active transportation,
transit, and accessible routes along 38th West. Starting in 2017 and continuing through early 2018, a coalition of residents, businesses, schools, organizations, and city officials worked together to:
1. Gather community input through outreach, forums, events, walk, bike, and roll audits,
data collection, and mapping to inform an Active Transportation Assessment.
2. Plan a demonstration project addressing key stakeholder concerns and host a community event to engage the community and solicit input on Active Living Plan recommendations. 3. Work with a coalition to develop an Active Living Plan identifying priority short- and long-term improvements in the project area to increase active transportation, transit, and
wheelchair rolling.
From this planning effort, speed zones and rapid rectangular flashing beacons were installed at key pedestrian crossings to improve pedestrian safety. The selected locations were determined and guided by the feedback solicited from the stakeholders and the community at large.
Despite these improvements, the current facilities along most of the street are still inadequate
from a walking, rolling, and biking standpoint. The existing multimodal facilities are inconsistent
throughout the corridor with non-vehicular users being forced to use the shoulders to walk, roll, and ride. Improved street facilities would provide better and safer multimodal connections from the nearby residential subdivisions to the Kullerstrand Elementary School site and to Prospect Valley Elementary and Everitt Middle School, and to the Applewood and Kipling Ridge
shopping centers at either end of the corridor.
In addition, the middle 70% of 38th West does not have adequate drainage facilities to handle even minor rain events. The existing roadside ditches do not have adequate capacity resulting in water often ponding on the side of the road and flooding the shoulders further degrading the use of that area to walk, bike, and roll. In addition, any future sidewalks will likely be built in the
Council Action Form – 38th West Consultant Contract March 13, 2023
Page 3
location of the roadside ditches, so a storm sewer system will be required to convey the runoff that is currently conveyed by the roadside ditches.
Due to the widely varying conditions along 38th West, a planning study will be done as the first
step to gauge public sentiment and create conceptual designs. As discussed during the previous study sessions, the goal of this study will be to identify what the public wants and needs are for 38th West, both now and in the future.
Since the public's wants and needs are not always in alignment, a large part of the effort in
preparing the study will be public engagement, not just to learn what the public wants, but to
help the public understand what the needs are now and will be in the future and to gain consensus on the proposed improvements that will result from the study.
Professional consulting services will be needed to prepare the study. Engineering staff will manage the overall project and the City's outreach specialists will be an integral part of the
public engagement efforts.
To assist in determining what the needs are, the initial design effort will include a traffic analysis of both the current and future conditions. The analysis will evaluate the safety and capacity of the existing street to convey both current and future traffic. The results of the analysis will result in a recommended alternative(s) that will then guide the remaining design, which will include
recommended construction phasing. That information will be used to prepare 30% conceptual
design plans including a street section(s) and conceptual cost estimates.
The initial design will also include a drainage outfall system plan (OSP). The OSP will identify the required storm sewer improvements that will be needed with the potential elimination of the roadside ditches due to the construction of the sidewalks. The OSP will be developed to Mile
High Flood District (MHFD) standards and reviewed by them to utilize their expertise in storm
sewer design and enable potential funding from them for the construction of the storm sewer facilities.
Finally, the 30% conceptual plans will be used to determine any right-of-way (ROW) needs. The width of the ROW along the corridor generally ranges from 50 to 60 feet. Acquisition may be
necessary in some of areas with less than 60 feet of ROW depending on the final selected street
cross-section(s). The final street width base on the number of lanes and the selected multimodal facilities may vary along the corridor depending on the results of a traffic analysis and public input. The addition of left tum lanes or a continuous center tum lane at key locations is anticipated.
On October 10, 2022, Ayers was selected by the City’s established procurement process to
perform the required professional services for completion of the study. The procurement process included review by a five-person evaluation committee of qualifications submitted by two firms, followed by interviews with both firms. After selecting of Ayers, staff engaged in a negotiation process with the firm to determine and finalize the scope and fees for the anticipated work.

TITLE: RESOLUTION NO. 08-2023 – A RESOLUTION
AUTHORIZING THE MAYOR TO EXECUTE AN AGREEMENT WITH JEFFERSON COUNTY OPEN SPACE TO ACCEPT A TRAILS PARTNERSHIP GRANT IN THE AMOUNT OF $410,000 FOR DESIGNING AND BUILDING A TRAIL AROUND TABOR LAKE
PUBLIC HEARING ORDINANCES FOR 1ST READING BIDS/MOTIONS ORDINANCES FOR 2ND READING RESOLUTIONS
QUASI-JUDICIAL: YES NO
_____________________________
Parks and Recreation Director City Manager ISSUE: The City of Wheat Ridge was awarded $410,000 in funding through the Jeffco Open Space Trails Partnership Program for an engineered design and construction of an accessible, safe, and
stable trail around Tabor Lake that connects to the Clear Creek Trail and Van Gordon St. To receive the funding, the City must accept the grant award by directing the Mayor to sign the attached Grant Agreement.
PRIOR ACTION:
City Council passed Resolution No. 34-2022 on August 22, 2022, supporting the application to
this grant program. Letters of support for this project were submitted by the Parks and Recreation Commission, Sustainable Wheat Ridge, the Sustainable Fruitdale neighborhood, Bike Jeffco, the Wheat Ridge Active Transportation Advisory Team, Mountain Phoenix Community School, and the Colorado School of Mines student team.
Council previously earmarked $934,000 in American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) funds for this
project. This $410,000 grant will increase the available budget, in the event that the project is more expensive than the original estimate. If the budget remains the same, these funds will free up ARPA funds for use on other projects.
Council Action Form – Jeffco Open Space Trails Partnership Program Grant Agreement, 2023 March 13, 2023
Page 2
Students from the Colorado School of Mines presented their plan for this trail to Council at the December 5, 2022 study session.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
The project, including design and construction, is estimated to cost approximately $902,520, with the grant award reimbursing $410,000 (45.4% of the project cost). The City is responsible for the remainder of the project cost ($492,250) which includes in-kind project expenses and support (valued at $20,800) and the 17% project contingency ($156,344). Funding for this
project is in the 2023 approved Open Space (Fund 32) budget.
The Colorado Parks and Wildlife (CPW) Commission is considering this project on March 16, 2023 for submission to the Land and Water Conservation Fund (LWCF) for an additional $451,000 in funding. In the city’s current proposal to CPW, the $410,000 from this Jeffco Open Space grant is listed as a likely partner contribution.
Not supporting the acceptance of this grant award would result in the $410,000 in funding not
being available for 2023. It may also jeopardize the potential $451,000 from the LWCF.
BACKGROUND: The Jefferson County Open Space Trails Partnership Program is funded by the Jefferson County Open Space tax and exists to fund trails projects in the county at either 25% of the project cost
for local trails or 50% of the project cost for regional trails. Extensions and connections to the
Clear Creek Trail are generally considered part of the regional trail system.
The Clear Creek Trail system is heavily used and highly valued by Wheat Ridge residents as a regional trail within the Jefferson County trails plan. Feedback from the bi-annual citywide resident survey and the Let’s Talk Resident Engagement Program affirms this. The 2021 resident
survey showed that 2/3 of respondents used the Clear Creek Trail in the last year. Each of the
Let’s Talk Program’s focus neighborhoods to date have told the City that bicycle and pedestrian access and safety to and around the Clear Creek Trail is a top tier issue. The preliminary plan for this trail was created in conjunction with the 44th Ave Sub-Area Plan and update to the Open Space Management Plan.
The Colorado School of Mines student team completed public engagement, current state
assessment, and trail planning and design for this project. Building an accessible, safe, and stable trail around Tabor Lake extends this trail system, gives residents additional recreation space and amenities, and improves connection to W.44th Ave via Van Gordon St.
RECOMMENDATIONS:
Parks and Recreation Department staff recommend passing this resolution to accept $410,000 in
funding to cover 45.4% of the estimated project costs. Should this resolution not be passed, the project would likely be fully funded using the existing dedicated ARPA funds. It is likely (but not guaranteed) that this grant program, and others, will be
available in the future for this type of work.

DATE: March 13, 2023 REQUEST FOR CITY COUNCIL ACTION
TITLE: RESOLUTION NO. 10-2023 - A RESOLUTION APPROVING AN AMENDMENT TO AN AGREEMENT WITH THE WHEAT RIDGE WATER DISTRICT REGARDING PHASE II OF THE WADSWORTH BOULEVARD IMPROVEMENT PROJECT PUBLIC HEARING ORDINANCES FOR 1ST READING BIDS/MOTIONS ORDINANCES FOR 2ND READING RESOLUTIONS
QUASI-JUDICIAL: YES NO _______________________________ ______________________________ Director of Public Works City Manager ISSUE: The City worked cooperatively with the Wheat Ridge Water District (District) to replace their water mains and other facilities during Phase I of the Wadsworth Widening Improvement Project.
Including their work in the City’s project greatly simplifies the construction coordination and
reduces their costs. An Intergovernmental Agreement between the City and the District to construct these improvements was approved by the City Council in February, 2021. The District wishes to replace and upgrade their water facilities in Phase II as well. Therefore, an amendment to the current agreement between the City and the District to construct these improvements has
been developed. The City will be reimbursed by the District for their portion of the work.
PRIOR ACTION: An Intergovernmental Agreement (IGA) with the Wheat Ridge Water District was approved by the City Council on February 22, 2021, via Resolution No. 09-2021.
A contract amendment for Phase IIA of the Wadsworth Improvement Project with Concrete Works
of Colorado, Inc. was approved, subject to CDOT approval, by the City Council on February 27,
2023.
Council Action Form – Wadsworth WRWD Agreement March 13, 2023
Page 2
FINANCIAL IMPACT: The District’s work will be included in the Phase IIA amendment to the contract with Concrete
Works of Colorado, Inc. As payments for the District’s facilities are made to the contractor, a pay
request will be sent to the District for reimbursement. The estimated cost of the District’s additional work is $1,086,460.87.
BACKGROUND: Early in the utility coordination process for the Wadsworth Improvement Project, the District
expressed interest in replacing their facilities in Wadsworth. The District was interested in
replacing the aging facilities and increasing the size of the water mains to provide additional capacity for the anticipated growth that is and will be occurring along the Wadsworth Corridor.
Including the reconstruction of the District’s facilities in the overall Wadsworth Improvement project has several advantages for CDOT, the City, and the District:
• Traffic impacts of replacing the aging District facilities are lessened by including their work in the overall project due to having only one construction project.
• Construction coordination will be much easier with the City’s general contractor supervising all work.
• The District does not have to pay for separate construction traffic control and to remove or repair the existing pavement.
• The District avoids the cost of performing night work, since most utility work on
Wadsworth is limited to the overnight hours.
RECOMMENDATIONS: Staff recommends approving the amendment to the IGA with the District to include their proposed work in Phase II of the Wadsworth Boulevard Improvement Project.
RECOMMENDED MOTION:
“I move to approve Resolution No. 10-2023, a resolution approving an amendment to an
Agreement with the Wheat Ridge Water District regarding Phase II of the Wadsworth Boulevard Improvement Project.” Or,
“I move to postpone indefinitely Resolution No. 10-2023, a resolution approving an amendment to an Agreement with the Wheat Ridge Water District regarding Phase II of the Wadsworth Boulevard Improvement Project, for the following reason(s)_______________________________.”

TITLE: MOTION TO APPROVE APPOINTMENTS TO BOARDS AND
COMMISSIONS PUBLIC HEARING ORDINANCES FOR 1ST READING BIDS/MOTIONS ORDINANCES FOR 2ND READING RESOLUTIONS
QUASI-JUDICIAL: YES NO
_____________________________ City Clerk City Manager ISSUE:
At the February 27, 2023 regular business meeting, Council appointed 21 volunteers to boards
and commission seats. Two At-Large Alternate vacancies remained to be filled on the Board of Adjustment. Applicants who were not appointed on February 27th were asked about their interest in serving in these roles and nine applicants indicated that they are indeed willing to fill these vacancies.
PRIOR ACTION:
Members of City Council most recently appointed members to boards and commissions on February 27, 2023 and do so throughout the year as vacancies arise.
FINANCIAL IMPACT: None
BACKGROUND:
Each year, the City advertises for residents who might be interested in volunteering on one of the Boards or Commissions. This year, positions were advertised twice in the Jeffco Transcript and through a multi-week promotional campaign including the City’s website, social media, email newsletters and direct email to graduates of Wheat Ridge 101. Simultaneously, letters were
emailed to current Boards and Commissions members whose terms expired on March 2, 2023,
asking if they were interested in seeking reappointment. Twenty-one of the 23 vacant or term
Council Action Form – Board and Commission Appointments March 13, 2023
Page 2
expiring seats were filled at the February 27 regular business meeting, leaving two At-Large Alternate seats on the Board of Adjustment.
RECOMMENDATIONS:
See Attachment 1, Board of Adjustment At-Large Vacancy Openings by District, for a general overview of current applicants that are seeking appointment. RECOMMENDED MOTION:
“I move to appoint__________________ to the At-Large seat on the Board of Adjustment, term
to expire____________________ , and “I move to appoint__________________ to the At-Large seat on the Board of Adjustment, term to expire____________________.”

Are you a Wheat Ridge
resident?*
If yes, how long have you been a
resident?
13 years Yes
No
Are you a registered voter?*
Yes
No
Have you served on a Board,
Commission, or Committee
before?*
If yes, which one?
Tell us about yourself and why you would like to be a member of this board, committee or commission. *
I'm an architect with 21 years of experience in Colorado and am interested in helping the City of Wheat Ridge with the
incorporation of updated building codes and finding ways to improve existing and future buildings in Wheat Ridge. I'm
convinced that building codes are a primary vehicle for ensuring the success of a community.
Briefly explain what you believe are some of the important issues facing this board, committee or commission, and how do
you think you can have an impact on these issues?*
It is very difficult to navigate renewable energy code initiatives such as electrification along with incentives to upgrade existing
building stock using simple and cost effective strategies. I have been working on my 1957 home for the past 13 years and
have low-cost ideas on how to make buildings more efficient.

Please list any community involvement, special work experience or skills that would enhance your ability to serve on this
board, committee or commission:*
I was the president of the Colorado Building Enclosure Council for 3 years. I took COBEC into a new phase of being a non-
profit organization with the goal of divesting building science knowledge to anyone interested in learning without charging for
seminars.
Please specify any activities which might create a conflict of interest that would prevent you from taking official action should
you be appointed to this board, committee or commission:*
I work in the City of Denver and hope this is not too much of a conflict.
Yes
No
If appointed, you agree to attend regular meetings
(typically monthly), review materials prior to meetings,
and help with occasional projects. Time commitment can
vary. Are you able to fulfill this commitment?*
Are there certain times when you wouldn't be available due to
job or other commitments?
Nothing aside from summer vacation
Notices, agendas, and communications are sent electronically

projects.

I have studied art and design since my teen years, and have a degree in Fine Art Photography. I've tutored in photography

I am a newer resident who loves the Wheat Ridge area and would love to be more involved in the community. I am pragmatic
and would bring a quantitative/scientific approach to problem solving in our city. I am a strong listener and learner, and I have
a broad background (both blue and white collar) which brings a fair and open perspective to city matters.
I am interesting in finding ways to be more involved in my community and find ways to make it a better place to live and work
and I hope the planing commissions is a place where that can begin.

Briefly explain what you believe are some of the important issues facing this board, committee or commission, and how do
you think you can have an impact on these issues?*
I think the city is currently at an important time in its history, particularly in issues relevant to the planning commission. In
particular, density and mixed use developments will continue to be relevant and shape the culture our of small city. I hope to
see our city continue to have a reputation as an incredible place to live in the Denver area. To me, this includes growth
through additional density and projects around infrastructure which not only support density but make the daily life of existing
citizen better. Zoning is important in part because there is an opportunity cost for each development.
While not the primary purpose of the planning commission, I am a car user and a bike user. I love our existing bike
infrastructure and would love to see it expanded.
Please list any community involvement, special work experience or skills that would enhance your ability to serve on this
board, committee or commission:*
In my past communities as a resident I have been always been actively involved. As a professional, I utilize skills and have
experience which would make me a strong candidate for the position. Locally growing up in Valparaiso, IN (a town of similar
size to Wheat Ridge), I worked on homelessness projects and spent time involved with Americorps and Habitat for Humanity.
In college, I was a board member of an internal analytics organization. I have always enjoying participating in the community
and hope to continue as a resident of Wheat Ridge.
As a professional, I spend most of my time problem solving and thinking about how solutions impact other teams and
activities in our organization. While I work in analytics, our organization focuses largely on regulatory issues and modeling. I
am well versed in reading and interpreting legalese and additionally understanding connected issues with a variety of sub-
organizations. I am comfortable with ambiguity and understand that good solutions are usually time consuming and require
compromise.
Please specify any activities which might create a conflict of interest that would prevent you from taking official action should
you be appointed to this board, committee or commission:*
I have no conflicts of interest in the Wheat Ridge area.
Yes
No
If appointed, you agree to attend regular meetings
(typically monthly), review materials prior to meetings,

My name is Eliot, my pronouns are he/they. I am a 34 year old resident of Wheat Ridge and someone who was born and
raised in Colorado. I have voted in every single local, city, state, and federal election since I turned 18. I am also transgender.
I come from a diverse background of non-traditionality. I challenge the status quo, however I am deeply committed to
Renewal Wheat Ridge. I currently live at Ptarmigan and I see the vision, I can see what's possible. I can also see barriers. I
have a bachelors degree in technical theatre and theory, have worked in diversity, equity, and inclusion. I am fiercely anti-
racist while also understanding that it's often racist systems than racist people. I believe in building close bonds with
community public health and safety that challenge the narratives we've been taught. To build a better Wheat Ridge, we have
to do it together, with everyone involved. That means police, transient, locals, non-locals, businesses large and small.

Briefly explain what you believe are some of the important issues facing this board, committee or commission, and how do
you think you can have an impact on these issues?*
Renewal Wheat Ridge is a complicated thing, I think. Living where I do, I see the nightly flashing of lights, hear the constant
sirens at i-70/kipling. I see posts on Nextdoor filled with vitriol and anger and mostly. What I feel when I look out at those
sirens and at what is happening during this resettling of Wheat Ridge is compassion and excitement. The biggest challenge
facing any local committee right now is our own old ways of thinking. I come with a fresh perspective and I am ready to help.
Please list any community involvement, special work experience or skills that would enhance your ability to serve on this
board, committee or commission:*
While I was at University in Ellensburg, WA, I devoted much of my time working with other LGBTQ+ students and community
members as they reconciled with how their identities intersected with the small-town and the very liberal college we attended.
It's complicated times right now. Because of this, conventional approaches to community work must change. In the past,
we've leaned on the rhythm of governmental tradition. As a non-traditionally educated, non-gender-conforming Colorado
"native" (I use that word if only for a lack of a different on), I am ready.
Please specify any activities which might create a conflict of interest that would prevent you from taking official action should
you be appointed to this board, committee or commission:*
I am not aligned with any sort of organization or religious/political group that would impact my ability to
make clear-cut decisions. One of my other intersctionalities is that I am neurodivergent. I can assure you,
with my background, my commitment right now is to where I live and the people I share this community
with.

I recently retired from the State of Colorado where I worked for the Division of Housing. Prior to that I worked in Community
Development for the City of Aurora. Since retiring I chose to build a new home in Wheat Ridge where I plan to stay and get
involved with the community.
Briefly explain what you believe are some of the important issues facing this board, committee or commission, and how do
you think you can have an impact on these issues?*
For the most part, the boundaries of Wheat Ridge are surrounded by other jurisdictions which creates a situation of working
within the defined borders. There are aging areas that create an interesting challenge in that redevelopment can be a long
drawn out process. In my career, I have been on both the private and public sector side of things and realize that for the
dreams of planners to be realized, it has to also work for developers, who are the ones that can make it happen. I also have
extensive knowledge in housing and how a community can provide for all its residents while maintaining community appeal.

Please list any community involvement, special work experience or skills that would enhance your ability to serve on this
board, committee or commission:*
It has been nearly 2 years since I came under contract to build my new home in Wheat Ridge and I have been attending
meetings on the 44th Ave Sub Area Plan and provided comments. My degree (many many years ago) was in Urban Planning
and while I only worked in planning for a short time, It always remained with me throughout the years. I was a homebuilder for
15 years constructing 70 to 100 homes a year working with developers to develop sites on my behalf. I served on the
Planning Commission in Allen County Indiana for four years prior to my move to Colorado, so I understand the workings of a
Planning Commission. My 14 total years split between working for the City of Aurora and the State of Colorado has given me
valuable expertise, especially as it pertains to housing, housing development and more importantly attainable housing.

As a longtime resident of Wheat Ridge, I want to be part of supporting and growing our city. After taking the Wheat Ridge 101
class last fall, I gained more respect for what it takes to run a city and all of the people needed to do that - I loved the classes
on planning and zoning and want to help going forward, not just arm-chair quarterbacking and expecting things to just happen
for our community.
Briefly explain what you believe are some of the important issues facing this board, committee or commission, and how do
you think you can have an impact on these issues?*
Wheat Ridge is a great town and community in the fast-growing Denver metropolitan area, and there's a balance that I think
many in our town want to strike between growing too fast and allowing Wheat Ridge to "lose itself" and the many reasons our
residents love living here, or not changing fast enough to benefit productively from being a desirable place to live and work. I
very much want to be part of steering our trajectory in alignment with that balance - so I feel the planning commission is
where I can serve best.

From a community perspective, being a resident who lives here and regularly shops, runs, rides, walks my dogs, has my car

ITEM NO: 8
DATE: March 13, 2023 REQUEST FOR CITY COUNCIL ACTION
TITLE: MOTION TO APPROVE INSTALLATION OF TRAFFIC
CALMING DEVICES ON CODY STREET BETWEEN 38TH
AVENUE AND 41ST AVENUE IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE NEIGHBORHOOD TRAFFIC MANAGEMENT PROGRAM PUBLIC HEARING ORDINANCES FOR 1ST READING BIDS/MOTIONS ORDINANCES FOR 2ND READING
RESOLUTIONS
QUASI-JUDICIAL: YES NO
_______________________________ ______________________________ Community Development Director City Manager ISSUE:
Residents on Cody Street petitioned the City to address traffic issues on the street segment from
38th Avenue to 41st Avenue. In accordance with the City’s Neighborhood Traffic Management Program (NTMP), the City met with the residents at a neighborhood meeting and subsequently devised a plan to install speed humps to mitigate the traffic issues. The residents then secured a petition with the necessary number of property-owner signatures supporting the installation of speed humps in accordance with the NTMP policy and are hereby seeking approval for
implementation. PRIOR ACTION: None
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
Funding for this program has been approved in the 2023 Capital Improvement Program Budget. The proposed street modifications can be installed at an estimated cost of $14,000.
BACKGROUND: On April 28, 2014, City Council approved the NTMP to systematically address traffic issues on
residential streets. The goal of the program is to foster safety and livability in neighborhoods by
Council Action Form – NTMP Cody Street March 13, 2023
Page 2
reducing the negative impact of vehicular traffic and speeding on residential streets. The policy intent is to clearly identify a problem, if one exists, and ensure full support from the affected
residents in devising a plan through consensus to a solution(s). The NTMP provides a means and
process for residents to request consideration for the installation of traffic calming measures on local streets. Traffic calming measures may include speed humps, curb extensions, signs, speed trailers and enforcement, and other traffic control measures as requested and as applicable.
On June 23, 2022, Cody Street residents filed a request to participate in the NTMP program.
Upon receipt of the request, the City collected traffic data to determine speed, volume, and vehicle classification for the traffic on the segment. Traffic data was collected in July of 2022, and an 85th-percentile speed of 28.0 mph was observed on Cody Street, which has a speed limit of 25 mph. Thus, the segment is eligible for speed mitigation since the 85th-percentile speed is
above the speed limit. A meeting was conducted with the residents on August 24, 2022, to listen
to resident concerns, present the traffic data and analysis, and to explore available solutions. Upon discussion of the traffic data at the neighborhood meeting, the residents elected to move forward with a permanent traffic calming solution. Speed humps were determined to be the most
effective solution. Staff identified two locations for speed hump installation along the segment.
This segment of Cody Street is not part of an emergency route and is therefore eligible for speed humps in the roadway. In accordance with the NTMP, the City can order speed hump installation if at least 80% of
residents on a designated street segment sign the petition, including the residents who reside
immediately adjacent to the speed humps. Based on the results of the petition received by the City, the required number of signatures have been attained for the speed humps as referenced above. The NTMP policy requires Council approval of a proposed project. If approved, construction is anticipated this spring (2023), assuming there are no significant weather delays.
It should be noted that the NTMP program is currently on hiatus and not accepting new applications. Staff is evaluating the program, and an update and proposed redesign will be presented to Council in the second quarter of this year. This request on Cody Street is among the last few pending applications which are wrapping up under the historical NTMP framework.
RECOMMENDATIONS: Residents of Cody Street, on the petition segment between 38th Avenue and 41st Avenue, have satisfied the process outlined in the NTMP policy and throughout the staff evaluation process. As a result, staff recommends moving forward with installation of speed humps on Cody Street
as specifically requested by the residents.
RECOMMENDED MOTION: “I move to approve installation of a traffic calming device on Cody Street between 38th Avenue and 41st Avenue in accordance with the Neighborhood Traffic Management Program.”
