ITEM 9 - PUBLIC COMMENT

Bob Lemmon - Parks & Recreation Director - City of Edgewater, Colorado
Mr. Lemmon invited the Mayor and City Council to the groundbreaking ceremony of the new skate park at Walker/Branch. The groundbreaking is scheduled for Saturday, March 30, 2002, at 10:00 a.m.

Mike Muller - 868 South Owens Court - Lakewood, Colorado
Mr. Muller asked that the following questions be answered tonight: How much did we pay for the Villa site through urban development? How much did we sell it for? What is the estimated PIF revenue off the Villa site? What is the 1% rebate estimated revenue for the developer? What is the City's estimated revenue off the Belmar site? Why was my Ward 4 representative cut short at the last City Council meeting? Is honest debate something that is not put up with around here? Why was the TV show on Saturday of the City Council meeting not shown in its entirety? Is City Council and the Mayor afraid to show this to the citizens? Mr. Muller stated he wanted to remind everyone of a quote after the last sales tax ballot issue. "The citizens have sent us a very clear message about sales tax increase." He stated he could not figure out the difference between a PIF and a sales tax increase, nor giving one-half of our City monies to a developer.

City Manager Mike Rock stated that all the issues around the public financing agreement for the Belmar project were actually discussed in an extensive televised study session in Council Chambers a number of months ago. Then City Council had a public hearing to adopt the public financing plan for Villa Italia or Belmar which was approved unanimously by the City Council. During which time, there was no public testimony from anyone who had any questions at that point in time. The cost of Villa and the sale of Villa are exactly the same. There is no City money that has been spent on Villa. The cost of acquiring Villa was paid for by Continuum. They made a deposit with the courts and the final value is yet to be established, but whatever that final value is, it will be paid for by Continuum. The cost and the revenue to the City offset each other. It was a zero cost to the City. Mr. Rock stated he would need to go back through previous information to determine total revenue from public improvement fees, but the City's share of revenue from all sources over the roughly 25-year period of the agreement is roughly $100 million. That will go to the community for the City to provide services and amenities throughout the entire community. Absent the redevelopment of Villa, the total revenue off the site over that same 25-year period would be probably less than $1 million, while the cost to service will be roughly $300,000 per year. It's a dramatic benefit to the City.

Mr. Rock stated that in the term of the broad reference, of somehow giving money away to a developer, that of course was discussed extensively. Nobody is giving money away to anybody. The reality is that Villa Italia has been the City's primary commercial center for years and has been in decline since 1994 and the cost to serve Villa is now exceeding the revenues produced by Villa. The cost to redevelop a site like this is in excess of $500 million. The public improvement costs, costs for things that directly benefit the public such as sidewalks, drainage, open spaces, parks, exceed $160 million. Of that $160 million, the developer's paying roughly $40 million up front and the remaining $120 million is being financed through the Metropolitan District and one of the sources of revenue to pay for those public improvements is a public improvement fee. That's why they call it a public improvement fee. Money isn't going to the developer. The money is going to provide those public improvements that are necessary to have the site developed. Absent the site being developed, it remains a liability for the community, no shopping is there, no revenue is produced. The issue of total revenue that might be generated from the site, that revenue is the revenue that is required to pay roughly $120 million in public improvements financed over a period of time.

Mayor Burkholder stated that the figures from Mr. Rock are pretty close and the figures were published in Looking at Lakewood, on Channel 8, through public testimony. and a televised meeting of this Council. Exact figures will be given.

Mike Rock stated that he also took issue with any implication that somehow this is a give-away to the developer. Private sector was unable to redevelop this site. The City was very fortunate to have Continuum work with the Villa Advisory Committee, that was chaired by Councilman Stevens, for an extensive period of time and analyzed, with those community members, and at that time, two citizens who are now City Council members, Ms. Koop and Ms. Herbst, were both members of that committee. There were members from the neighborhood and from the business community. They spent an extensive period of time reviewing alternative uses for that site and agreed on a redevelopment plan and agreed that Continuum was the best possible redeveloper. The City is very fortunate to have Continuum working in this community and to have them, frankly, be willing to take the risk to redevelop an infill site that is very difficult and expensive to develop instead of going out on the edges of the Metropolitan Area like most developers do and build a new shopping center, which would take more shoppers out of Lakewood.

Councilman Elliott stated that he had several questions when he first came on Council regarding the development plans. He stated he voted against the last proposed sales tax increase. However, when you look at what the City is trying to do in order to revitalize a Villa Italia, a Wadsworth/Colfax, and the Colorado Mills Development, one thing that becomes very apparent is that this is not going to be done by private development. It is going to take significant development to have a place where the community could gather and associated are significant public improvement costs. He stated that citizens have a choice as to where they shop. If citizens don't like the public improvement fee, they don't have to shop at Villa, at Mills, or at Colfax/Wadsworth. However, if citizens want to enjoy those amenities, including the streets, the parks and the landscaping, there is something to pay for that.

For those who take advantage and use those facilities, there should be a cost for paying for those and not paid for by every citizen that may or may not go onto that site. The development of Colorado Mills, the Villa site, and Colfax/Wadsworth speaks to what the citizens of Lakewood wanted. It is not a tax, the money does not go to the City in any way, shape, or form. It goes to pay off the bonds that are used to do the public improvements on the site. The citizens that wind up going to these sites will benefit directly. The money does not come into the general fund in Lakewood. It cannot be used on parks and police and potholes. It has to go to pay off the bonds. The City of Lakewood incurs no debt. There is no liability to the City. It's a "win-win" for the citizens of Lakewood and everyone that is going to shop at that Center. Citizens want to see progress on that site. Councilman Elliott stated that he has explained to people that there is a cost associated with the development. Everyone is incredibly supportive of it and this Council did the courageous thing by supporting these projects. Once again, it was a unanimous vote that was done as we brought these plans forward. In the years to come, people are going to look back and say the Council had a lot of foresight in making this happen.

Councilwoman Martin
Mr. Rock clearly explained the difference between the public improvement fee and a tax. These things are complicated, it sounds like a tax, maybe looks like a tax, but it's not. It's going for something very specific when it is a fee. When citizens purchase something, the PIF fee is shown on their receipt, similar to what happens at Park Meadows. Councilman Martin asked Mr. Rock to clarify for Mr. Muller the 1% that Mr. Muller said was going to the developer.

Mike Rock
As part of the public finance agreement, in looking at the revenues necessary to pay for the various public improvements on the site and in recognizing it was in the City's interest, and in particular, the citizen's interest, to make sure that the combination of sales tax and public improvement fees wasn't unreasonably high, the City Council determined to set aside and only collect one cent out of the two cents that you are entitled to. The City will only be collecting one cent off the site, which will still generate roughly $100 million over a 25-year period, or an average of $4 million per year. The other one-cent is not going to the developer. That one cent is simply not collected. The public improvement fee is then 2.5 cents that is collected through an agreement between the developer and the tenants on site.

Councilman Stevens stated that this has been a very public process. The Villa Advisory Committee met for approximately two years and talked extensively about the financing options. The whole purpose of utilizing urban renewal was not to create a money making scenario, it was to eliminate and redevelop urban blight. This is an area that could ultimately wind up hurting our City to a great degree. If you have something right in the middle of your City go downhill to where it is crime ridden and covered with graffiti, suddenly the neighborhoods are affected, suddenly the stores that are located on Alameda across the street don't want to be located there any longer. It has that domino effect all along the Alameda Corridor. It was a priority for Council to see Villa redeveloped. To have a plan that is going to generate $100 million of revenue to the City, while the developer takes all the risks, seemed to be a great plan in the eyes of the Committee. This was not done behind closed doors. This was very open and a good financial decision. He stated he was proud of Council for making the decision to move forward.

Public Comment:

Linda Shepard - 6394 W. Ohio Avenue - Lakewood, Colorado
Stated she had a few concerns on the South Alameda Area Plan. The sidewalk issue is too vague as to where the sidewalks will be going and it contradicts the Jefferson Garden Plan. Also, when the neighbors were making the Jefferson Garden Plan, the trail along Weir Gulch was overwhelmingly voted down by the neighbors because it goes through too many back yards and will bring more vandalism. It is never mentioned in the plan how the neighbors really felt about the Weir Gulch Trail. She stated she would like to see something in the new plan about how the neighbors feel, so the City will know how they stand when the time comes to construct the trail. The Plan states that it encourages and supports trail construction along appropriate designated portions of Weir Gulch and will work with surrounding neighbors to determine the most suitable locations for a pedestrian and bike trail along the Gulch. Ms. Shepard stated she is concerned because in the Jefferson Gardens Plan, the Weir Gulch starts at Pierce and goes all the way to Sheridan. She stated it contradicts the Jefferson Garden Plan.

Brent Hesterwerth - 12352 W. Nevada Place, #201 - Lakewood, Colorado
Asked when the City would be reconstructing the west end of West Alameda Avenue near the Federal Center. There are signs up near the Federal Center and near Van Gordon. He stated he would like to help plant trees when the time is right.

Sam H. Zakhem - 2530 S. Gray Court - Lakewood, Colorado 80227
Commended Mayor and Council for that beautiful presentation to the Metro Mayors' Youth Award recipients. He stated he is a landowner in the vicinity of W. Mississippi and Alameda and is delighted to see Council redeveloping that area. He stated he hopes Council will look at the tremendous sprawl caused by the redevelopment and realize that land is precious and that water is more precious. He suggested increasing densities for the land that is available since there is little land available and the Jefferson Plan has put a tremendous burden on some of the landowners, and in the long run, on the tax base for the City. Mr. Zakhem stated he has owned 7.5 acres of land in the area since 1979. He stated he has paid more property taxes than the price of the land. He stated it was unrealistic and unreasonable to ask for 30,000 s.f. and asked Council to consider this issue when deliberating on land use matters.

Councilwoman Wise made a motion to approve the Council minutes; to accept the minutes of Boards and Commissions; and ordered all ordinances introduced on first reading to be published in the Lakewood Sentinel with public hearing set for the date included in the ordinance; and ordered the adoption of resolutions, all of which were included in the Consent Agenda items introduced into the record by the City Clerk. The motion was seconded by Councilman Elliott.

Councilwoman Saum asked what the life span was for the golf carts and when they would be paid in full.

Bill Jewell, Manager of Regional Parks & Golf, stated that golf carts last 7-10 years. They are turned over after four years because the warranty is only good for four years. The cart revenue is good. At the end of four years, they are paid off.

Councilwoman Saum thanked the citizens for coming and talking about the South Alameda Plan. She stated that staff would be getting back to them with answers.

Holly Boehm, Neighborhood Planner, stated that the overwhelming response to surveys was to connect trails within the metro and regional trail systems. The South Alameda Plan does not state that it's going to go along Weir Gulch, it states that the City will work with neighborhoods to address the most appropriate place for the trail. With any planning process, there will be a public process that goes along with it in determining the best place for trail connections. In regards to the sidewalk improvements, there was concern about public safety in the area and one of the issues that came up was lack of sidewalks in certain areas. This Plan does not supercede the Jefferson Garden Plans. The City is addressing the residents' concerns in the whole South Alameda Area.

Frank Gray, Director of Planning and Community Development, stated that Mr. Zakhem's concern reflect the concerns of the City as well, regarding looking at higher densities in certain areas when appropriate. He stated the Planning Department is working with Mr. Zakhem on a development proposal. He actually has developed a fairly sophisticated development proposal. It is a concern and the City looks at proper levels of density in the neighborhood and balancing that with the character of the neighborhood. This Plan contemplates all those things and the City will continue to work with Mr. Zakhem on his development plans.

The City's Comprehensive Plan is very general in nature. It looks at general policies that apply to the City as a whole. The neighborhood plans try to work with each of the neighborhoods in the City. The City has completed seven neighborhood plans to date. The neighborhood plans bring the grand level of the comprehensive plan down and apply it to the neighborhoods. The results are things like traffic calming devices. The implementation solutions are completely different in each of the plans. Every single neighborhood plan is tailored specifically to that neighborhood and talks about how the general comprehensive plan policies can be applied to that particular neighborhood situation. There are 64 neighborhoods in the City of Lakewood. It will take a long time, but there are probably only 12-14 neighborhoods that have this need for development planning. Many of the neighborhoods in the City of Lakewood were all done as planned unit developments, have active homeowners' associations, and are going to be fairly simple. The City will probably simply adopt the already adopted PUDs and plans that have been adopted for those areas.

Councilwoman Herbst thanked Holly Boehm and Sally Paine for all the work they put in on this. She stated she was a neighbor and participated in the plan and thanked them for all their hard work.

Councilwoman Saum stated that the improvement of the public transportation access issue needs to be addressed as part of the South Alameda Plan.

Vote on the Consent Agenda: All Ayes. No Nays. The motion carried.

ITEM 17 - GENERAL BUSINESS
Mayor Burkholder introduced the City's new Economic Development Director, Carol Garton. Carol Garton stated that she is a Colorado native, born and raised in Colorado Springs, lived in Northeastern Colorado for several years in a rural area. She was an entrepreneur, was in community education and went into economic development in a rural area. She stated it is very hard to do economic development when you are far away from an interstate and you're based in a rural area and depend completely on agriculture. Ms. Garton stated they had a very successful program, raised over a million dollars through the enterprise zone in a short time for businesses and community projects. They built a brand new hospital, hospital facility expansion, brought in an assisted living facility, low-income housing, as well as many other projects. She then went to Loveland and was hired as the President/CEO of the Chamber of Commerce of Loveland. The Chamber was coming off a large law suit where they built a large new office and visitors center and a couple of council members sued the Chamber of Commerce and the City of Loveland for using public funds. She stated they hired her to come in and fix the mess, which she did over a three-year period and they lost quite a few chamber members as well as quite a bit of revenue. She stated they brought it back into the black and brought membership back up by 40% and kept those members with a 90% retention rate, which is almost unheard of with a chamber of commerce. She was then recruited back to the Loveland Economic Development Council to be their President/CEO. They merged the Loveland and Fort Collins economic corporations together in Larimer County. Two cities, very different economic development basis and she stated she was very fortunate to be a part of that program and be a key element in bringing that merger together and it was very successful. She stated that she is thrilled to be in Lakewood. There is a wonderful staff and she will be hiring two more employees to fill some vacancies. There are a couple of wonderful large projects going on with the Belmar redevelopment and the Mills project. She stated she felt it was important to retain and expand the local industries. Over 80% of new jobs created each year are done by local industry, not by new companies coming into your area. A lot of economic development programs, whether they be city or non-profit, have a reversal, they go out and spend about 90% of their time trying to attract industry and they leave the other 10% to do the retention and expansion. She stated that would change and bring a lot of retention and expansion back into the City of Lakewood. No company is too small or too large to work with. She will be promoting visitations this summer as well as doing a survey of local industries. She would like to find out what businesses are looking for and how the City can help them.

ITEM 18 - REPORTS

Mayor Burkholder
Attended a conference in California at Yosemite. It is a conference held annually that really looks into the idea of mixed-used development and how growth issues are addressed. Council voted to approve the Mile High Compact two years ago and this is quite unique in the United States as the Metropolitan Denver Area was the first area in the United States that has adopted something like this. It was an honor to represent the Metro Mayors as well as the City of Lakewood.

Councilman Elliott
Attended Metro Mayor's Youth Commission Awards on behalf of the Mayor. They award certificates to everyone that has won an award for their achievements. It really is a humbling experience to go to and see what some of our youth have done in the community and what obstacles they've overcome. It was very heartwarming to know that there is hope for the future with our young people. It was a real honor.

Councilwoman Wise
The Annual Prom Dress Exchange took place and was very successful. The exchange allows young ladies in the community to go to their senior prom who may not have been able to due to the expense of a prom dress. Over 250 dresses have been inventoried to date and over 20 girls were successful in finding dresses for this year's prom. Eight different high schools were represented. Councilwoman Wise thanked the volunteers who helped make the event possible. She stated that it was most important that the kids go to prom and arrive home safely. She asked they not drink and drive and to be safe.

Councilman Booher
Attended the Green Mountain Annual Easter Egg Hunt. He stated it was yet another benefit of having a strong community association.

Reported the Ward 4 Coalition meeting is tentatively set for April 10th at 7:00 p.m. at Christ on the Mountain Church. Police Chief Ron Burns will be a guest speaker. He invited everyone to attend and offered his home phone number (303-986-0978) for those who wanted to confirm the date.

Councilman Stevens
Thanked Council, members of staff, and citizens in the community for the flowers, cards, and personal support since the passing of his mother. He and his family appreciated the prayers of support during this tough time.

Councilwoman Koop
Reported RTD is having a public meeting on Tuesday, March 26th from 6:30-9:00 p.m. at the Sheraton Denver West Hotel, 360 Union Blvd. They will be providing a general update on the West Corridor EIS Study and provide an opportunity to have a one-on-one discussion with members of the Technical Team. She invited the public to attend.

Reported the music scholar will be arriving in Lakewood this week and is scheduled to perform in concert on April 5th at 7:30 p.m. at the Westland Baptist Church, 430 South Kipling in Lakewood. The program includes Callie Poindexter, a flutist, and Robert Chesters, a pianist. They are winners of the Sister Cities 17th Annual Music Scholar Exchange Competition. He will be attending the next Council meeting.

Councilwoman Saum thanked staff member Kathy Hodgson and Nina Johnson for the update of the Heritage Center Master Plan presented at the study session last Monday night. The whole concept of the Lakewood Heritage Center Village as a 20th Century Village being put into the park has not been under their watch. They have come since this was planned and put together. They did a great job in being fair and presenting the whole picture and listening. She stated that when Council has study sessions, citizens are not allowed or may not participate, it is a time for council members to discuss and make comments and so she put forward questions that citizens had asked and staff did answer a lot of them. She stated that she hopes before another building like the diner from Aurora comes in, that there be some citizen involvement in determining which buildings will be moved into the property that are more meaningful to Lakewood. Everyone has different viewpoints on what a park should be and Belmar Park is trying to address this. She asked that the City be more patient and understanding with the citizens who are concerned seeing buildings come into a park that they thought was going to be more open space. She stated that she received a telephone call from a long-time Lakewood Historical Society member who, in going through the notebook, happened to have noticed an article from the Sentinel, December 3, 1976, and it says that the citizens committee which had planned Belmar Park determined it should be a passive park preserved in its natural state. She stated that the changes happening there are really difficult for some of those who remember the initial purpose of the park to understand.

Councilwoman Herbst
Reported a meeting scheduled for Tuesday, March 26th from 7-9 at Lasley Elementary School cafeteria to revisit the Lasley Park Plan.

Councilwoman Kesselman
Reported a meeting scheduled for April 2nd of the Jewell/Wadsworth Business Association at 7:30 a.m. at Liberty Bank.

Encouraged the public to attend the concert where the music scholar Robert Chesters would be performing. She stated that her family would be hosting Robert Chesters for two weeks.

Councilman Murphy
Reported the next meeting of the New Colfax Community Association, a growing group of West Colfax neighborhood associations and businesses, is scheduled for April l7th at the Starr Center, directly across from Clements Center.

Stated he was glad to see a new Economic Development Director and is looking forward to his first trip with Miss Garton down West Colfax Avenue.

Councilwoman Martin
Stated that five groups sponsored the visit of music scholar Robert Chesters. He will be performing at the various groups' meetings. Please contact the City Manager's Office for his schedule. Next summer there will be an adult Sister City Exchange Program. Councilwoman Martin asked that interested persons contact her directly regarding the program.

Stated she had received a telephone call from a 14-year volunteer at the Heritage Center who stated she was pleased to see that the Heritage Plan was being continued.

Announced the Good News Breakfast is scheduled for April 9th at Jefferson County Fairgrounds. Twelve people throughout the community will receive awards for their interest in creating the arts in Lakewood.

Thanked staff for the Council Orientation Program presented over the last several months. Mayor Burkholder stated that the program was the result of new council members' requesting an orientation program at a retreat several years ago. He stated the program was very good and it would be continued.

City Manager Mike Rock
Stated that if there were technical difficulties in the broadcasting of the Council Meeting on Channel 8 last Saturday, it would be rebroadcast.
