City Council <br /> Meeting Minutes <br /> April 5, 2011 <br /> Page 8 of 10 <br /> They are not "normal" city blocks but rather are based on geographic landmarks <br /> identified when the census takers are standing on -site. The final census blocks are of <br /> varying shapes, sizes, and populations and blocks do not necessarily follow <br /> neighborhood boundaries, subdivision lines or streets. Adjacent neighbors can be in <br /> different census blocks. <br /> Option A This option has the fewest changes from the existing wards. <br /> Compliance was reached by moving the Townhomes at Coal Creek on Dahlia <br /> Street from Ward 3 to Ward 2. The non residential parcels to the west and <br /> generally between Centennial Parkway /Cherry Street and the south boundary of <br /> the City are also moved from Ward 3 to Ward 2 under this option. <br /> Option B This option makes additional changes to the existing wards, but <br /> continues with those basic ward outlines. <br /> Takes the Townhomes at Coal Creek on Dahlia Street and moves them <br /> from Ward 3 to Ward 2; <br /> Moves Sundance Subdivision off of Pine Street from Ward 2 to Ward 3; <br /> Moves the dividing line of Ward1/Ward 2 to South Boulder Road from Via <br /> Appia west to the City limits; <br /> Moves the 600 blocks of Johnson, McKinley, and Garfield Avenues from <br /> Ward 3 to Ward 1; <br /> Makes Ward 1 the smallest of the three wards to allow for future growth <br /> from North End and Steel Ranch subdivisions. <br /> Option C This option is not based on the 2000 wards, but instead is based on <br /> the request of putting all of Old Town in one ward. <br /> COUNCIL COMMENTS <br /> There was considerable Council discussion relative to the Ward Boundary Options. <br /> Mayor Sisk, Councilors Muckle, Dalton and Sackett supported Option A.
