City Council Regular - 20 Apr 2026

The City Council of Englewood, Colorado, held a regular meeting on April 20, 2026, which included several procurement and policy discussions. Key procurement-related topics included the approval of an updated Intergovernmental Agreement (IGA) with Arapahoe County for public safety radio usage, with council members addressing timing and contract renewal concerns. The council also discussed potential termination of the Flock camera contract due to reputational issues and planned a detailed discussion on surveillance systems for the May 11 meeting. Additionally, amendments to municipal codes were considered, including updates to accessory dwelling unit (ADU) regulations to comply with new state laws, and water use restrictions aimed at drought response, with debate over enforcement measures such as water shutoffs. The council also reviewed a chronic nuisance abatement ordinance to address repeated property violations and discussed changes to petitioning processes to improve transparency and fairness in ballot title setting. Motions were passed to approve the IGA and water use restriction ordinance with amendments, and a motion to table the chronic nuisance ordinance for further refinement was approved.
