                     Mayor Kreutzer read the title of the Resolution into the record.

 

Mayor Kreutzer opened the public hearing at 7:13 p.m. and City Clerk Natalie Hoel verified the required postings and publications (September 11, 2019 in the Brighton Standard Blade) for this public hearing were completed.

 

Mayor Kreutzer read an email into the record from Valerie Wolf.

 

“Dear Councilmembers, I am asking you to approve the permit for the pipeline request. We have lived in Brighton East Farms for over 13 years and I can finally see a reduction in the high taxes if we can get this pipeline approved. I see no downside in building this. It seems more safe than the trucking alternative. Please consider the residents of Brighton East and approve the potentially $700.00 tax reduction for the first year. Sincerely, Dennis and Valerie Wolf. Brighton.”

 

Acting City Manager Marv Falconburg introduced Assistant City Planner Sean Pesek.

 

Assistant City Planner Sean Pesek presented the Conditional Use Permit application for the Homestead Brighton East Farms, Filing No. 3 oil and gas pipelines. The applicant is Chris Perdue representing Petro Operating Company. The applicant is proposing to construct a new 8” natural gas line and a 6” crude oil line gathering system within the City. These pipelines would centralize collection and facilitate the delivery of product to regional markets thereby reducing truck traffic on local highways. Approximately 12,200 linear feet of pipeline is proposed in the City and of those approximately 10,750 linear feet of pipeline is within City right-of-way. The pipelines will commence at the Homestead Well Pad and will run approximately 2,500 linear feet into Baseline Road right-of-way, east approximately 6,100 linear feet to the intersection of Baseline Road and North 60th Avenue, south approximately 2,975 linear feet to Longs Peak Avenue and west 280 linear feet to the Brighton East Farms Filing No. 3 well pad.

 

The alignment is adjacent to a variety of development types and densities from Rural Estate to PUD Single-Family Residential and PUD Multi-Family Residential. The Homestead Subdivision where the pipelines commence is currently platted and under construction as the Brighton East Farms Filing No. 2 Subdivision. The Brighton East Farms Filing No. 3 Subdivision where the pipelines end is currently platted but not under construction. Ridgeline Vista to the east of North 60th Avenue is under preliminary plat review at this time.

 

Staff finds that the application complies with the Comprehensive Plan Policy 4.1, which encourages development patterns that support all travel modes. If the application were approved, truck traffic would be significantly reduced on local highways and collector streets. The Land Use and Development Code has five criteria for approval of the application:

1.                      Consistent with the Brighton Comprehensive Plan and other master plans;

2.                      Compatible with the existing and future land uses within the general area and will not be detrimental to neighboring uses. Allows for conditions to be placed on approval to mitigate impacts;

3.                      Site shall be physically suitable for the type and intensity of the proposal;

4.                      Not adversely affect traffic flow or parking in the neighborhood; and

5.                      Consistent with the purpose and intent of the zoning district.

 

Staff finds that the application does comply with all five approval criteria.

 

Public notice was provided in accordance with the Land Use and Development Code. Two signs were posted in the general vicinity of the proposed alignment on September 13, 2019. Written notice was mailed to adjacent property owners within 315 feet of the proposed alignment on September 6, 2019 and a notice was published in the Brighton Standard Blade on September 11, 2019. Staff has not received any formal comments.

 

Staff recommends approval of the application with the following fourteen conditions in summary:

1.                       The applicant shall enter into an easement or License with all parties within the pipeline route.

2.                       The pipelines shall be constructed with the approved design specifications.

3.                       Implement approved technologies to verify the structural integrity of the pipelines.

4.                       Approved inspections and technologies will be employed to find leaks and/or verify the internal structure and integrity of the pipelines.

5.                       Submit a reclamation and weed control plan to the City with the requirement that any property damaged along the pipeline route be repaired within one week.

6.                       Permanently remove the pipelines from service should the operator abandon them.

7.                       An Emergency Response Plan needs to be submitted to the City, this has been done.

8.                       Record the “as-built” legal description and map of the alignment location with the Clerk and Recorder of Adams County within thirty days of completion.

9.                       Defend the City from any and all claims of liability for damages or injury to the property or persons.

10.                      Purchase and maintain insurance.

11.                      Comply with the notification requirements as set forth in the Resolution.

12.                      The applicant is required to comply with the specific noticing requirements.

13.                      The applicant agrees to reimburse the City for all costs incurred by the City in reviewing, revising and approving the application.

14.                      Recognize that the permit is not transferable or assignable without prior written permission from the City Manager.

 

Mayor Kreutzer asked if the applicant would like to add anything to the presentation.

 

Chris Perdue, Strategic Site Designs, Highlands Ranch, Colorado. Strategic Site Designs is the formal applicant for the project and represents Petro Operating. The Brighton East Farms and the Homestead well pads were previously permitted through the City of Brighton. As part of the MOU process, there was a requirement to streamline the design and be able to collect the product and transport it out of the City as quickly and efficiently as possible while mitigating truck traffic and other impacts to local residents and surrounding neighborhoods. The purpose of the application is to collect product from the two well pads and transport it out of the City. The License Agreement has been prepared to occupy approximately 10,750 linear feet of City-owned land and rights-of-way. Two areas will require the applicant to obtain easements for this pipeline. All pipeline easements related to construction will be completed as of October 16, 2019. The route will be constructed in areas that were previously disturbed. The applicant has consulted with the US Fish and Wildlife Service to ensure that no critical habitats were threatened where endangered species live or lie along the pipeline routes. There is currently a lot of construction taking place along Baseline Road so the applicant has worked with staff to tailor the construction and design in ways that mitigate impacts to proposed and existing infrastructure. The applicant will be directional drilling along baseline road so the sidewalks and landscaping in the area will not be disturbed. A pipeline is being proposed in North 60th Avenue and the applicant is working with Richmond American Homes to defer construction of the roadway until after the pipeline so there is no impact to City infrastructure. Oil and Gas facilities are regulated under Section 17-64 of the Brighton Municipal Code, this process outlines nineteen protocols that must be followed. All application materials have been submitted to staff, Code regulations have been followed, and the proposed conditions have been agreed to by the applicant. The applicant is currently working with FRICO to permit the crossing of the Speer Canal. FRICO does not have any issues with the design pending the final engineering analysis. The goal is to have the project completely constructed by the end of 2019 pending the execution of all agreements and permits. Getting the truck traffic off 168th Avenue and 60th Avenue is very important; this pipeline would remove seventy to eighty trucks per day off the roadways.          

  

Mayor Kreutzer asked if anyone in the audience had questions for the applicant, there was none.

 

Mayor Kreutzer asked if anyone in the audience wished to speak on behalf of the request, there was none.

 

Mayor Kreutzer asked if anyone in the audience wished to speak against the request, there was none.

 

Mayor Kreutzer asked if any correspondence had been received, there was none.

 

Mayor Kreutzer asked if there were questions from City Council.

 

Councilmember Mills appreciates the combining of construction efforts with the existing construction.

 

Councilmember Blackhurst asked where the oil and gas goes once it is taken from the pad site to the north to the pad site off 60th Avenue. Mr. Perdue explained that a permitted pipeline in Weld County would go from the Homestead pad into Weld County and across I-76. Councilmember Blackhurst asked if the product would move south to north and Mr. Perdue stated that it would. Councilmember Blackhurst asked how this project benefits the homeowners in Brighton East Farms with $700 annually on their property taxes. Acting City Manager Falconburg explained that the mill levy goes to the Metro District off the income from the oil and gas, which reduces their taxes over time. Councilmember Blackhurst asked if the Metro District gets a percentage of the oil and gas revenue and Acting City Manager Falconburg stated that it does. Councilmember Blackhurst asked if both pipes could be placed in the same trench. Mr. Perdue explained that in areas that are being bored, the pipes need to be a minimum of five feet apart.

 

Councilmember Wallin asked how deep the boring would be. Mr. Perdue stated that it should be at least ten feet deep. Councilmember Wallin is pleased that the existing infrastructure would not be disrupted.

 

Mayor Pro Tem Edwards has had his concerns regarding the truck traffic eased and asked if there is potential for any other parties to use the pipeline. Leif Lindahl, Cureton Midstream, Littleton, Colorado.

Mr. Lindahl reported that there is more capacity available in the pipelines. Mayor Pro Tem Edwards asked what pressure the gas line carries and Mr. Lindahl reported that the pressure is 100 to 200 psi for the gas system. Mayor Pro Tem Edwards asked if this is the maximum capacity for the pipeline and Mr. Lindahl explained that the pipeline is tested to 1.25x the maximum allowable operating pressure, which is at least 1,800 psi. Mayor Pro Tem Edwards asked if the oil is the same and Mr. Lindahl explained that they are similar. Mayor Pro Tem Edwards asked why the oil and gas lines are different sizes. Mr. Lindahl explained that it is for the volumes in the liquid vs. gas components.

 

Mayor Kreutzer asked if the eighty trucks per day off the streets is current or potential and Mr. Perdue explained that it is potential trucks per day in the area when the pipelines go live.

                     

Mayor Kreutzer closed the public hearing at 7:44 p.m.

                     Mayor Kreutzer read the title of the Resolution into the record.

 

Acting City Manager Falconburg introduced Economic Development Director Michael Martinez.

 

Economic Development Director Michael Martinez presented the Incentive Agreement for a new facility for Johnson Auto Plaza. Johnson Auto Plaza has been a pillar of the community for 25 years and is an economic driver and good steward of the business community. An application for a proposed 44,000 sq. ft. new parts and service center facility was submitted to the City in September 2018. The new facility would bring twenty-six new employees, mostly automotive technicians with an average income of $48,043. This facility would generate an increase in sales tax for the City. City Council approved the PUD amendment and final plat for this project earlier this year and the Planning staff has reviewed and granted administrative approval for the project’s site plan. Building permits can be issued once fees are paid. The incentive request is a 50% use tax rebate on construction materials collected by the City for the new facility. The estimated rebate is $88,125. The second piece of the incentive is a sales tax rebate of the amount in excess of $512,000 collected annually. This is a performance-based incentive; the applicant would have to exceed the $512,000 to receive the incentive. The total incentive for this project would not exceed $338,000 or five years, whichever comes first.

                     Mayor Kreutzer read the title of the Resolution into the record.

 

Acting City Manager Falconburg introduced Administrative Services Director Karen Borkowski Surine.

 

Administrative Services Director Karen Borkowski Surine presented the addendum to the City Attorney Employment Agreement. City Council hired Attorney Joseph Rivera, a qualified outside third party to create the tool for the annual performance evaluation of the City Attorney. City Council met with Attorney Rivera on two occasions to refine the direction that Council had given to Attorney Rivera. This process would give City Council, Department Directors and the City Attorney staff to provide confidential constructive feedback and direction to the City Attorney. Each Councilmember would meet individually with the City Attorney annually within the timeframes set forth in the agreement. As part of the process, City Council directed Administrative Services Director Karen Borkowski Surine to compile data from the review questionnaire and present the information confidentially to City Council. City Council would collectively meet with the City Attorney. This process would be completed by December 17, 2019, but going forward the process would be completed by July 15th. Compensation is reviewed annually and market rate data could be provided by Human Resources. The City Attorney is an at-will employee of the City Council.

FOR THE TOTAL OF FOUR HUNDRED                      THOUSAND DOLLARS ($400,000.00); AND AUTHORIZING THE CITY MANAGER                      TO SIGN THE CONTRACT ON BEHALF OF THE CITY AND THE CITY CLERK TO                      ATTEST THERETO

 

                     Mayor Kreutzer read the title of the Resolution into the record.

 

Acting City Manager Falconburg introduced Infrastructure Director Mike Woodruff.

 

Infrastructure Director Mike Woodruff presented the request for the rehabilitation of a portion of the City’s manholes. Director Woodruff introduced Treatment and Maintenance Manager Kim Schoen. The sanitary sewer manholes are an integral part of the infrastructure that continually conveys wastewater to the plant to be treated. Manholes are necessary for the change in direction of gravity pipelines and are access points for operational personnel to maintain, clean and repair sanitary sewer pipelines to make certain the system functions properly. Manholes are typically constructed of concrete, with older manholes being built from brick and mortar. Over time, manholes experience deterioration and corrosion and if nothing is done to prevent this, the structural integrity of the manholes can be compromised and would need to be replaced; this process is costly and disruptive. This project would rehabilitate 206 manholes by using a multi-layered polymer lining method. The manholes were chosen based on an assessment of condition, age and the amount of flow seen in the manholes. Director Woodruff explained the process for rehabilitating the manholes. The rehabilitation would reduce operation and maintenance costs, prevent corrosion, eliminate infiltration, restore wall surfaces, has a trenchless application, and has a 100-year design life and a 10-year warranty. Staff chose to use the bid that was developed for the City of Broomfield to perform the same type of sanitary sewer manhole rehabilitation. The bid was based on manhole surface area to be lined, and therefore can be directly transferred to the City of Brighton project. Concrete Conservation Inc. can perform this work for $400,000. The spending authority for this project is from the approved 2019 Sewer Activity Enterprise Fund budget. Staff recommends approval of this contract. Utility Maintenance and Wastewater Manager Kim Schoen answered questions from Council regarding:

                     The performance of the liners that were previously installed.

                     The start and end date for the project.

                     The number of manholes in the City.

                     The number of manholes that still have to be treated.

                     The need being met by treating 200 manholes per year.
