Englewood staff set July2DAugust council agendas, prioritize lead reduction and special2Devent strategy
Summary
At a July 16 mayor2Dmanager meeting, Englewood City staff and the mayor finalized agendas for July and August council meetings, scheduling presentations on a special2Devent strategy, a lead2Dreduction program update, waste and pavement studies, several intergovernmental agreements and a $250,000 state grant acceptance.
Mayor (name not specified) and Englewood City staff met July 16 to finalize upcoming City Council agendas, scheduling several presentations and intergovernmental agreements for July and August meetings and allocating time for each item.
The meeting centered on agenda planning for the July 21 and July 28 council meetings and a July 28 study session. Staff set aside time for a special-events strategy, a lead-reduction program update, a South Metro waste characterization study review, a pavement survey presentation and a midyear capital improvement plan review. The team also listed multiple intergovernmental agreements and code amendments to appear on future agendas.
The meeting matters because the items scheduled include potential policy changes and multiagency projects that affect Englewood27s utilities, public works and economic development programs. Staff and the mayor assigned time estimates for presentations and identified items for the consent calendar where partner agencies are leading the work.
Key items scheduled for the July 21 meeting include a special2Devent strategy presentation and an update on the lead2Dreduction program; recognition of Jan Brown27s work with the Citizens Alliance for Sustainable Englewood and recognition that Englewood is a 2025 All2DAmerica City finalist; introduction of a new economic development manager; and an item to consider Xcel Energy approval for electric vehicle charging sites. Staff also listed an intergovernmental agreement (IGA) with RGD for partial reimbursement of Englewood shuttle services and an IGA with the City of Sheridan for a collaborative employee training program.
For a subsequent meeting staff listed several water and utility2Drelated items: revised IGAs with the City of Littleton for the City Ditch Piping Project Reach 3, agreements with Littleton and BNSF Railway tied to the ditch piping project, and agreements with the Public Service Company of Colorado for utility crossings. The agenda preview also included code amendments regarding liability for business entities, alignment of the municipal code with water quality standards, restorative2Djustice services IGAs, and proposed tax2Dexempt lease2Dpurchase financing for a municipal energy project.
Staff allocated time for presentations during the July 28 study session and other meetings: approximately 35 minutes for the special2Devents item, about 102D15 minutes for the lead2Dreduction update (staff noted the water and sewer board had already seen an update), roughly 20 minutes for the pavement survey presentation and a longer discussion of the midyear capital improvement plan (presentation plus 302D45 minutes of discussion). Monthly general fund financial reports for May and June were scheduled as a short item (about 10 minutes).
The meeting also recorded administrative items planned for August: acceptance of a $250,000 high2Defficiency electric heating and appliances grant from the Colorado Energy Office, the Englewood Public Library five2Dyear strategic plan, a Denver Water interconnect compliance agreement, and adoption of the South Metro Waste Diversion Plan among other code and contract items. Staff noted a Tri2DCities joint resolution concerning a bus stop at Bridal House and an executive session to discuss the New Englewood LLC City Center. An executive session for annual performance evaluations of the city manager and city attorney was scheduled for late August.
No formal votes or council actions were taken during the mayor2Dmanager meeting; the session was used to confirm agenda placement, timing and whether items should be placed on consent when partner agencies lead them. Staff flagged one council request from a councilmember about the sewer system for follow2Dup; details were recorded as "not specified" for future meeting preparation.
The meeting concluded after roughly eight minutes of discussion. Staff will bring the listed items back to the City Council on the specified dates for presentations, discussion or formal action.
