Council hears second reading of Land Use Code

By William J. Dagendesh On Jan. 3, Manitou Springs City Council heard the second reading of Ordinance 2322: Land Use and Development Code.

The ordinance repeals Chapter 15.16, Title 16, and Title 18 of the Manitou Springs Municipal Code concerning signs, subdivision and zoning, and adopts the LUDC on second reading, including the updated definition of “household” and the city attorney’s rewrite of the appeal process.

Because of the somewhat complicated content of Section 18.06.3.10, Appeals, council voted unanimously that all appeals be “de novo,” and that the city attorney modify the language as necessary whenever there is an appeal.

“De novo” is a Latin term that means “anew.”

When a court hears a case “de novo,” it is deciding the issues without reference to any legal conclusion or assumption made by the previous court to hear the case. City Attorney Jeff Parker will make the necessary changes.

In a memorandum from City Planner Hannah Van Nimwegen-McGuire, the City Planning Department, working with landscape architecture and environmental planning firm Logan Simpson, has revised the existing Manitou Springs Title 18 (zoning code), Title 16 (subdivision code) and Chapter 15.16 (sign code) to create a unified LUDC. The City Planning Commission heard the draft and unanimously recommended approval with suggested revisions. Council heard the proposed LUDC on Dec. 20 and recommended approval on first reading. Council did not make any suggested revisions to the language within Chapter 1, although members made a few revisions from the first reading.

Jennifer Gardner from Logan Simpson discussed the proposed revisions, which include: • Where adjacent properties are zoned differently, the most restrictive setbacks between the two zone districts will apply to the property being developed; • The way building height is measured utilizing a height envelope, which is defined as “a rectangular box 35 feet high fitting the buildable area of the lot”; • The maximum building height for the high-density residential zone district was reduced from 35 feet to 30 feet; • The maximum building height for the mixed-use commercial zone district was adjusted — the 39-foot allowance for ground floor commercial was removed, but the maximum throughout the district was increased from 35 feet to 36 feet;

• The allowance for a 90 percent lot coverage resides in the dwelling unit and whose live-in status when 15 percent of paved surfaces incorporate is required by the nature of their employment will be permeable pavement in the mixed-use commercial considered a member of the household. The zone district was removed; occupants of a residential unit the city has not • The maximum density in the mixed-use approved for a short-term rental use must comply commercial zone district was reduced to 20 dwelling with the definition of “household.” units per acre; and “I want to thank everybody for the time you • In the mixed-use commercial zone district, the have sunk into reviewing the LUDC. It is no small column titled “Development Standard Incentive task getting this far,” Van Nimwegen-McGuire said.

Harper Johnson as an alternate member of the City Suggested alternatives to defining a household Planning Commission. Initially, Johnson submitted included three options. They are: an application and resume for the CPC’s regular 1. A household is people living together as a member vacancy. However, Chair Alan Delwiche family or as the functional equivalent of a family, chose to fill that vacancy with someone already where the members of the household share serving as an alternate member. responsibility for the dwelling and choose who is a “As such, I confirmed Mr. Johnson’s interest in part of the household, not a landlord, property serving as an alternate member,” Deputy Clerk Elena manager or other third party.

4 Pikes Peak Bulletin

January 5, 2023

Bulletin moves to new phase in covering Manitou For more than a century, OPINION spanning the city’s 150-year history, Manitou Springs has had a newspaper to call its own.

It was actually the Manitou Springs Daily Journal for decades until 1933, then a weekly for the 90 years since, mostly as the Manitou Springs Journal and Pikes Peak Journal operated by the Graham family, and for the Ralph Routon past two decades as the Pikes Executive editor Peak Bulletin. emeritus Now here we are, starting 2023 with a final edition of the Bulletin before it becomes part of the new Sixty35 magazine debuting next week.

This isn’t the occasion for another history lesson.

It’s time now to assess what to expect.

Thanks to now-Mayor John Graham and his ancestors, carrying through to the most recent incarnation as the Bulletin, Manitou Springs leaders and residents have used their newspaper in many ways. It has been an effective tool to keep up with government and business, as well as the best option for communicating quickly with each other.

On a personal level for nearly nine years, since the last ownership change in April 2014, my experience with the Bulletin has covered the full spectrum. It has evolved from hands-on supervision and weekly columns as interim publisher and then executive editor until retirement five years ago, evolving into a different role with other local pursuits.

My appreciation for the Bulletin’s place in the community has grown, as it’s helped spread the word about the merger last year to form Creative Alliance Manitou Springs (CRANE), as well as keeping residents informed about the Manitou Arts, Culture,

and Heritage tax initiative and grants process.

It’s been invaluable for CRANE and the MACH board, having the Bulletin as the best conduit for informing Manitou about everything from CRANE’s public art projects to MACH grant applications.

So, you may be wondering, how will that work now? The honest answer is, we don’t know for sure. There is no blueprint.

Sixty35 magazine will be available every week, though not as easy for free pickup as the Bulletin and Independent have been. Your best bet is a mail subscription, and if you’ve been a Bulletin subscriber, the $26 annual rate will be unchanged for 2023.

Inside the new Sixty35 weekly, you’ll find some Manitou Springs content, with additional stories and information online at Sixty35media. org. Once it launches, you’ll be able to customize your use of the website to see what you want — for example, everything related to what you’ve been reading in the Bulletin or the Indy.

Beyond that, it’s simply a work in progress. The new publication will have a section (with a varying number of pages) initially focusing on Manitou as well as Southeast Colorado Springs. As it evolves, the size will depend on advertiser support.

That’s where you’ll find Manitou news, features, columns and other information. But readers also must be ready to utilize Sixty35media.org, because that will be your best and most timely source for content such as arts and entertainment listings and even much of the government, school district and sports coverage.

Our hope is that advertisers will see the value in

being part of a publication with far wider distribution, going to readers throughout the area. Sixty35 will be a great way for Manitou to inform the region about upcoming events and pertinent issues.

One thing you need to know: The coverage of City Council meetings, a pillar of the weekly Bulletin, will be changing. Sixty35 will go to press each week on Monday, for distribution on Wednesday, so it cannot include stories about meetings on Tuesday nights.

So City Council stories will have to go online first, then as warranted in the following week’s Sixty35. Thus, the print coverage of city government will aim toward ongoing issues and upcoming events or meetings.

It’s not possible yet to know how the weeks and months ahead will unfold. For those of us involved with such entities as CRANE, Manitou Art Center, Manitou Springs Heritage Center, MACH, the Manni Awards and many more, the priority will be figuring out the best ways to convey messages.

Almost certainly, there will be bumps in the road and changes in the original plan. Patience will be essential for all involved, and everyone should be open to new approaches, especially using the internet in addition to the printed newspaper.

Here’s the bottom-line message: Manitou Springs will continue to have a newspaper, shared with the region, with many of the same journalists you have known from the Bulletin and the Indy, in a much larger package.

It’s not really the end. Just the start of something new.

Patience will be essential for all involved.

LEAP accepting applications for home heating costs assistance Colorado’s Low-income Energy Assistance Program (LEAP), a federally funded program that helps eligible Coloradans pay a portion of their winter home heating costs, is accepting applications through May 1.

The statewide program helps eligible individuals and families pay winter home heating costs by making a one-time payment directly to the utility company on behalf of each LEAP-eligible household. Last season, a record 84,000 LEAP recipients received an average benefit of $990.11.

To qualify for LEAP, Coloradans may have an income up to 60 percent of the state median income level, which equates to a household income of less than $66,468 a year for a family of four. LEAP recipients must pay home heating costs directly to a utility company or landlord as part of their rent and have at least one U.S. citizen or permanent legal resident of the U.S. living in the household.

LEAP recipients also may be eligible to receive furnace repair and replacement in heat-related

emergencies, in addition to weatherization services pending the results of a home energy audit.

Currently, LEAP recipients may also qualify for the Low-Income Household Water Assistance Program, a temporary program that is part of the American Rescue Plan Act. LIHWAP provides funds to make a one-time payment to the water vendor directly on behalf of eligible households who are facing eviction due to unpaid water bills or whose account is either in arrears or shut off.

That will last as long as funding is available; the water vendor must a LIHWAP participant.

To access the LEAP application, visit cdhs.colorado.gov/leap. Online applications are processed through the Colorado PEAK system.

You can also call 1-866-HEATHELP (1-866-432-8435) to receive an application via mail or email, or visit your county Human Services office to pick up or drop off an application. See humanservices. elpasoco.com for location and other details.

Manitou Springs’ Carnivale celebrates 31 years of merriment This year, Manitou Springs will celebrate 31 years of bringing Mardi Gras, Manitou-style, to the Pikes Peak region. The theme for the 2023 Carnivale is “Manitou Time Machine.”

Manikrewe, the Carnivale committee, will be coordinating the event, scheduled to start at 1 p.m.

Saturday, Feb. 18.

“We are working to make Carnivale in Manitou an even more festive experience for our visitors,” said Jenna Gallas, special events coordinator for the Manitou Springs Chamber of Commerce.

“That means bringing in new Mardi Gras elements, but also honoring those who established Carnivale here and made it the inclusive, ‘everyone welcome’ event that continues to draw thousands of parade-goers every year.”

The Chamber of Commerce took the reins of the parade in 2018.

The committee is working to incorporate a little bit of Gulf Coast Mardi Gras into Carnivale.

“We are inviting dance groups, high

school marching bands and mini-krewes, and adding other elements of Mardi Gras,” said Gallas. “The parade will be a little bigger while still having that Manitou vibe, complete with belly dancers, djembe drummers and giant puppets.”

As the giant puppets are an original component of Manitou’s Carnivale, the committee has asked a local artist to design and build a new one for the collection.

Carnivale weekend includes Carniball, scheduled for Friday, Feb. 17, at the Briarhurst Manor, and the Mumbo Jumbo Gumbo Cookoff, starting at 10 a.m. Saturday. Guests are encouraged to attend the ball and parade in costume. Ticket information and the portal will become available in early January.

Information: manitousprings.org/ carnivale-weekend.

To nominate the Carnivale Court: tinyurl.com/2023CarnivaleCourt To participate in the parade, register your krewe at bit.ly/3WfMBEO.

The 2005 Historical Speaker Series will present Dr. Lewis Archer as its opening speaker Jan. 16 at 3 p.m. in the Community Congregational Church, 103 Pawnee. The subject of his talk will be “The Broken Hear t of William Bell.” Dr. Archer has been an historical speaker in past years and attributes his interest in Manitou Springs’ history to his relocation here 13 years ago.

March 6, Kathleen Morrow, “Health of the Environment and Man.” March 20, Cathy Spalding, “The Archival History of Manitou.”

The talks are free and open to the public. Refreshments will be served.

Kelly Johnston’s second grade class at Manitou Elementary, led by Isabel Dufford, behind the large glass jar full of coins in the center, spearheaded the MSES tsunami relief effort at MSES and was soon joined by many all the other classes in the school. The cause has been taken up by students in all four district schools, at the initiative of the students themselves. See story, page 4.

City Finance Director Mike Leslie reported to City Council at Tuesday’s work session that there was approximately $32,000 available for implementing changes in the zoning code and related public processes for 2005.

The recommendations submitted by consultant HB&A were itemized and came with the cost of each item included. HB&A will be contracted to perform the work of revising the code and establishing revised processes so the recommendations also served as a de facto bid on each item even though the firm’s involvement to date eliminates the requirement for a new bidding process.

The 12 items on the HB&A list total nearly $91,000.

HB&A also indicated several, mostly procedural changes, that can contribute to a more efficient and less contentious process that can be implemented in-house at no cost.

Operating within the $32,000 available this year, council identified the creation of approval criteria for each zoning category, including downtown, projected to cost $20,000; revising and updating the public process, projected to cost $9,100; reevaluating the setback requirements in the general residential zone, which consumes as much as one-third of planning staff’s time, projected to cost $5,000 and adopting and implementing the National Fire Prevention Association’s standard 299 at a projected cost of $3,600.

The NFPA standard would provide clear-cut guidelines, especially for construction on upslopes, where none exist now and thereby eliminate considerable negotiation,

EDITOR

reports, hearings and general misunderstanding and arguments.

Representatives of HB&A, City Council and members of city staff will now meet to finalize costs.

At press time, it was not anticipated that further formalize action would be necessary to start the zoning and planning revision process as outlined Tuesday.

Following Monday’s open house with finalists for the City Administrator position and a closed executive session Tuesday to review the candidates and the interview process that took place Monday, City Council appears to be embarking on final discussions with one or more candidates. Details from council executive sessions are, by law, not made public The four finalists are Elizabeth Black, District Manager for the Copper Mountain Consolidated Metropolitan District in Colorado; David Blanchard, City Manager of Blackhawk, Colo., from 2000 to 2003; Catherine Green, Director of Planning for the City of Pueblo from 1992 to 2004; and, Rick Sonnenburg, Town Manager of Monument.

Bentley Henderson, Assistant Town Manager of Carbondale, Colo., withdrew from the process Friday The candidates were interviewed Monday by a panel of Colorado city managers and by City Council. The four then met with members of the public and with members of city staff.

No public timetable has been set for the final hiring.

Happy Cats Haven – Pet of the Week Hello, I’m Violet, a gorgeous tabby girl with spring-green eyes! I came to Happy Cats with my kittens after we were found trying to make it outside alone. I’m ready to find my furever home! I love to follow my hoomans around the house and I especially love lap time! I’ll do best in a home that has another kitty who is feline-friendly and can be my pal; I get lonely when my people are gone. I’ll probably do well with older kids and I might do well with a cat-experienced dog after a slow introduction. I’m about 2 years old and you can adopt me for $80, which includes my spay, vaccinations, microchip, food and litter starter kit and a checkup.

Where is it

Can you guess what the picture is?

If so, email your answer to editor@pikespeakbulletin.com

My name is Romanoff and I’m ready for my new family to walk in the doors!

I’m a 7-year-old tortie that came into HSPPR as stray. I’m currently staying in one of HSPPR’s cat colony rooms, where I get to spend my day interacting with other cats and people. I’ve been told that I’m a good girl, but I just don’t like to be picked up so I would prefer a mature household. I can be shy at first, but I just need some confidence before I receive attention. My adoption is $35 and I come with a voucher for a veterinary exam, vaccinations, 30 days of pet health insurance and a microchip, and I am already spayed. Just ask for Romanoff (1619313).
