A bill for an ordinance vacating a portion of right-of-way at 3100 Cherry Creek South Drive, with reservations. (INFRASTRUCTURE & CULTURE) Vacates land at 3100 East Cherry Creek South Drive in Council District 6. The last regularly scheduled Council meeting within the 30-day review period is on 7-20-15. The Committee approved filing this bill by consent on 6-18-15.
So I'm going to read this finding, as you said, Charlie, finding a solution for completing the middle section of Cherry Creek South Drive between University and Colorado Boulevard has been quite a challenge for many years. But as Albert Einstein once said, You never fail until you stop trying. During the past few months, the residents of Cherry Creek Tower have been able to enter a successful dialog with the city, a process that's been defined by each party's ability to use some old fashioned skills. The ability to listen. The willingness to negotiate. The wisdom. To accept compromises that allow each to feel that its legitimate needs will be met. There are many people in this city to thank for supporting Cherry Creek Tower as the association has confronted the ramifications of losing a large number of our parking spaces. Among those people are Dennis Araghi, now retired from Public Works and apparently walking around with a golf club in his hands instead of his briefcase. Thanks, Dennis, wherever you are. Dave Hunt, Singer and Public Works is proving equally supportive as our new contact going forward. And the civil engineers and landscape architects working with us on behalf of the city have made the process of fleshing out all the necessary details, both a pleasurable and a creative experience. The entire project has a firm direction now, and we would like to express our appreciation for the city's willingness to engage in what I will call a creative win win solution to a long standing dilemma. It reminds me of something else that Einstein once said Creativity is intelligence. Having fun? In closing, we'd like to thank Charlie Brown for all his efforts on behalf of the city and its constituents and for the opportunity to be here this evening. Thank you so. Much. Thank you, Frank. Thanks to all of you. And thank you, Madam President. And congratulations, Councilman. Councilman Nevitt. Under bills for final consideration, you called. Out Council Bill. 402. What would you like to do with this Bill? Yes, ma'am. I need to offer two minor but important amendments. Thank you. Councilman Lopez, will you please put this bill on the floor? Thank you, Madam President. And move that bill for order to be published. Actually, it's final consideration. Oh, it's consideration. Okay. The place upon final thought. I'll do it again. I believe I move that council bill for it to be placed upon final consideration.
