PUBLIC HEARINGS AND SECOND READINGS
Public Hearings
E-470 Maintenance Responsibilities Intergovernmental Agreement
Town and E-470 staff recently entered into discussions identifying the need for a comprehensive maintenance agreement due to numerous issues/items that require clarification on which agency owns maintenance responsibility. Verbal agreements have been in place for numerous years on some of the maintenance responsibilities that need to be codified. Through a collaborative exchange between E-470 staff and Town staff, a comprehensive maintenance listing was agreed to in 2018. This maintenance listing includes references to previous Town/E-470 intergovernmental agreements but also addresses storm drainage, roadway, bridges, lighting, signage, landscaping and snow/ice control. It is anticipated that this IGA will have to be amended from time-to-time in the future as additional development occurs.
Approved 5-0 (In Favor: Diak, Rivero, Poage, Toborg, Williams)

First Amendment to Disaster-Emergency Mutual Aid and Resources Assistance IGA
The Town of Parker is party to an intergovernmental agreement with numerous area agencies to provide disaster-emergency mutual aid and resources assistance. The purpose of this Emergency Management Coordination Group (EMCG) is to work collaboratively to combine planning, training and combined exercise opportunities that will foster better working relationships throughout the local emergency management community. The parties desire to more clearly define the purpose and membership of the EMCG to more effectively serve the needs of the participants and the local emergency services community as a whole. As such, they are requesting revisions to the current IGA.
Approved 5-0 (In Favor: Diak, Rivero, Poage, Toborg, Williams)
Country Meadows Planned Development Zoning Update
The purpose of this proposed ordinance is to update the Country Meadows Planned Development (PD) zoning by amending the PD to remove the commercial area from the PD. The commercial area within the Country Meadows PD was rezoned to C-Commercial in April of 2018, aligning the permitted uses within the commercial area with the Parker 2035 Master Plan recommendations for Neighborhood Centers. Based upon the April 2018 rezoning, staff recommends the action.
Approved 5-0 (In Favor: Diak, Rivero, Poage, Toborg, Williams)
Parker Water Sanitation Easement Agreement - Reata West Filing No. 1
The purpose of this ordinance is to amend an easement agreement between the Town and Parker Water and Sanitation District (PWSD) in order to correct an error in the agreement’s legal description of the easement property located within the Reata West development. The correction will result in a slight reduction in the easement area being granted. No other changes to the easement agreement are proposed with this amendment.

Town of Parker Records Retention Schedule Amendment
Last year, the state legislature enacted HB 18-1128, which established specific requirements for the destruction of municipal records containing personal identifying information. The Colorado Municipal Records Retention Schedule (which the Town has adopted with certain exceptions) sets forth appropriate methods of records destruction in Appendix E. However, they do not adequately address the record destruction requirements of HB 18-1128. This resolution passed by Town Council amends the Parker Records Retention Schedule to meet these new requirements.
Approved 5-0 (In Favor: Diak, Rivero, Poage, Toborg, Williams)
