The Denver City Council will have a light agenda on Monday.

Meetings will continue in the Parr-Weidner Community Room while renovations progress in the council chambers.

Returning to the council from the Community Planning and Housing Committee is a resolution to fund hotel rooms and ballrooms to accommodate overflow from the city’s emergency shelter beds during cold-weather activations.

Council Resolution 25-2070 was called out last week by District 8 Councilmember Shontel Lewis for postponement, asking for more time to understand what the resolution was funding.

Should the resolution pass on Monday, it will add $450,000 to an existing contract between the city and U.S. Motels North, LLC, for short-term shelter when city-owned emergency shelter beds become full during cold-weather activations.

Also from the same committee is a resolution to approve a one-year, $6 million contract with the Colorado Coalition for the Homeless to provide supportive housing for homeless individuals and families.

Under the contract, if approved, the coalition will work with the city’s Department of Housing Stability to assist households with significant barriers in connecting to supportive services, case management, and more stable housing.

From the Governance and Intergovernmental Relations Committee is a resolution approving the City Council’s appointment of Donald Long to the Citizen Oversight Board.

Long is the founder of SummitMark Leadership, a leadership “coaching platform focused on helping new leaders build ethical, transparent and people-centered practices,” according to city documents on the matter.

Created in 2004, the Citizen Oversight Board consists of nine community members who assess the effectiveness of the Denver Department of Public Safety’s hiring, training, and disciplinary processes and make recommendations as appropriate.

There will be two proclamations in the 3:30 p.m. session.

The first will honor Steve Ellington for his 37 years of service to the city. Ellington retired from his position as city treasurer in December.

The second honors West East Neighbors United for their “leadership on the NWSL Stadium Community Benefits Agreement.”

During the 5:30 p.m. session, the council will hold two required public hearings on the following bills: 

Council Bill 25-1704: A bill for an ordinance approving and accepting the park building plan for the maintenance and operations facility, equipment building, and storage building, all located in City of Cuernavaca Park, pursuant to the provisions of Sections 39-210 and 39-211 of the Denver Revised Municipal Code. 

Council Bill 25-1991: A bill for an ordinance changing the zoning classification for 8250 E. 40th Ave. in the Central Park neighborhood.

The Denver City Council will hold its regular meeting on Monday at 3:30 p.m., with the general public comment session scheduled to begin at 5 p.m.

The public is welcome to attend council meetings in person, but is reminded that seating in the Parr-Widener Community Room is very limited, and the room will fill up quickly.

Those who do attend in person will most likely be seated in the overflow room, where the meeting will be televised. Watching the council’s proceedings on Comcast Channel 8 or on denver8.tv is encouraged.
