MINUTES
OF
CAPITOL HILL UNITED NEIGHBORHOODS - JULY 22, 1976
1. Mike Gilbert, an attorney and former CHUN Board Member, explained
the provision of a proposed landlord-tenant city ordinance. The
ordinance provides that; a) the building code will be used to set
standards to which a landlord must adhere; b) tenants may, under
certain circumstances, go in to court to force a landlord to make
repairs; c) a method is provided by which a tenant may defend
himself against an eviction which is in retaliation for complaints
which the tenant has made.
It was moved by Bernie Jones and seconded by Chuck Nefzger that
CHUN endorse this draft of the landlord-tenant ordinance. The
motion passed unanimously.
2. John Durham, the neighborhood planner from the Denver planning
office, reported concerning new developments in the Capitol Hill
Neighborhood and Cheesman Park neighborhood since the adoption of
the official neighborhood plans two and one-half years ago. He
indicated that, although the planning office could not afford
much staff support, they would be agreeable to having citizens
re-study the neighborhood plans and make recommendations for
any changes. Several board members expressed interest in working
with such a group.
3. President Michael Henry welcomed several board members from the
Denver East Central Civic Association, who had been invited to
this meeting.
4. The President announced that Dwight Filley has resigned from the
Board of Directors, as he has moved from the neighborhood. It
was moved by Rhonda Knop and seconded by Chuck Nefzger that Gordon
Appell be appointed to fill the vacancy on the Board. The motion
passed with no nays and one abstention.
5. John Ozello, Chairman of the Social Services Committee of CHUN,
distributed the CHUN-sponsored senior citizen telephone directory.
He urged each member of the Board to be responsible for distributing
these directories in one senior-citizen-high rise apartment.
6. Bernie Jones mentioned the continuing of the Inter-neighborhood
coalition. Anyone interested in attending these meetings should
contact Bernie at 832-3526.
7. Bernie Jones announced that several schools, agencies, and organizations were cooperating in organizing a forum to be entitled
" Is Small Government Beautiful?" It was moved by Chuck Nefzger
and seconded by Rhonda Knop that CHUN become a co-sponsor of the
forum with the understanding that no financial obligation would
result from co-sponsorship. Motion passed unanimously.
8. President dicussed the seriously-low level of our treasury and
our membership list, and the great need for encouraging new members
to join. Dorothy MacEwan volunteered to make telephone calls to
