notes, timeline of review, stakeholder involvement, agency review,  
PlanCOS compliance, application review criteria, and City Council optional  
motions. Mr. Shafer stated due to some minor changes to the plat  
language and Section 2 of the Ordinance after the first reading, this  
Ordinance will require a third reading.

location, application request, purpose, Use Variance - City Code Section  
7.5.527.E, site history, 2004 Memorandum, neighborhood concerns, and  
neighborhood protections.  
Councilmember Donelson asked if the World Figure Skating Museum is in  
support of this project. Mr. Lieber confirmed they received written  
confirmation of support from the World Figure Skating Museum.  
Councilmember Donelson asked what guarantees the citizens have that  
the physical barrier would not be removed at a future date. Mr. Leinweber  
stated that the note specifically prohibits any future access points and the  
2004 Memorandum identifies the barrier and the commitment.  
Councilmember Leinweber asked if a gate could be added to 1st Street to  
control the entry into this area. Mr. Lieber stated The Broadmoor originally  
used “No Parking” signs to control access, but it was determined that a  
vacation of the right-of-way was the best option and there are no plans to  
install a gate at this time.  
Councilmember Rainey asked if the attendees/guests of the hotel or events  
at The Broadmoor will still be able to park in that area. Mr. Leinweber  
confirmed they would.  
Councilmember Henjum asked how the parking will be managed. Jack  
Damioli, President and Chief Executive Officer, The Broadmoor, stated  
this vacation request came about as a result of a City violation notice due  
to the “No Parking” signs on 1st Street.  
Councilmember Henjum asked how they will handle vehicles which are  
parked improperly. Mr. Damioli stated they would notice them to give them  
ample opportunity to move their vehicle and during large events, such as  
the Space Symposium, they would have people directing traffic for parking.  
There were no public comments in support of the project.  
Citizen Roger Matthews spoke about his concerns with how people will  
park during large events.  
Motion by Councilmember Bailey, seconded by Councilmember  
Leinweber, that the Ordinance No. 25-68 vacating a portion of public

Ordinance No. 25-69 amending Ordinance No. 25-31, Section 5  
(Appointing Natalie Lovell As City Auditor And Prescribing Her Duties,  
Compensation, and Tenure In Office, And Superseding And Repealing  
All Prior Ordinances Inconsistent With The Provisions Of This  
Ordinance), And Removing The Requirement Of Certification As A  
Colorado Certified Public Accountant For The Position Of City Auditor.

Signed Ordinance No. 25-69.pdf  
Myra Romero, Chief Human Resources and Risk Officer, presented the  
Ordinance removing the requirement of certification as a Colorado  
Certified Public Accountant (CPA) for the position of City Auditor.  
Councilmember Leinweber asked when the CPA requirement was put into  
place. Ms. Romero stated 2014.  
Councilmember Leinweber asked if the role of City Auditor and the office  
have changed and grown over time. Ms. Romero confirmed they have and  
the City Auditor would not be completing audits themselves, they would be  
overseeing the staff or third party individuals who would be completing the  
audits.  
Councilmember Bailey stated the qualifications for a specific job should be  
codified in a job description with the ability for the hiring authority to change  
and alter position descriptions and requirements. Ms. Romero stated they  
make recommendations based on looking at the benchmarks and what  
other organizations are doing to be in line with the industry.  
Councilmember Bailey stated he supports the recommendation that there  
is no need for a CPA certification for this position.  
Councilmember Donelson asked if the recommendation to remove the  
CPA certification requirement brought forward by Natalie Lovell, City  
Auditor. Ms. Romero stated it was brought to her by the City Auditor on  
behalf of City Council leadership.  
Councilmember Henjum provided an overview of the requirements for role  
of City Auditor as defined by the Association of Local Government Auditors  
(ALGA), Institute of Internal Auditors, and the Government Accountability  
Office and made a motion to amend the Ordinance to require that the City  
Auditor obtain a Certified Internal Auditor (CIA) certificate within two years  
of their hire date and remove the CPA requirement.  
Councilmember Donelson stated he was told by another Councilmember  
that Ms. Lovell told him that she had previously taken and failed the CPA  
certification exam which she had not revealed to City Council and the  
Human Resources Department when she was advocating to have the CPA  
certification requirement removed. He stated this brings her integrity into  
question, she was hired based on the condition that she would acquire her  
CPA certification within two years, he does not support her request to  
remove the CPA certification requirement and made a motion to table this  
item and give this item to an impartial selected committee for evaluation.  
Councilmember Rainey stated he shares the same concerns as  
Councilmember Donelson and does not believe they should remove a  
requirement at the dias without doing due diligence on behalf of the City  
that is haphazard and that it should be tabled until City Council is sure of  
the direction they should take.  
Councilmember Rainey asked if the amended Ordinance is passed if it  
would required another reading. Ben Bolinger, Legislative Counsel, City  
Attorney’s Office, confirmed it would because it is a substantive  
amendment to the original Ordinance.  
Councilmember Bailey stated the implication that City Council has not  
performed its due diligence and needs more time seems to be a tactic  
used only when a vote or decision does not go the way that they agree with.  
He stated City Council has had the information for quite some time, they  
voted two weeks ago to move forward with the original Ordinance, adding  
a different certification is a Human Resource and hiring manager issue,  
and he supports the job Ms. Lovell has been doing since she was hired.  
Councilmember Bailey stated he finds it disturbing that a person’s  
character is being questioned by society and anonymous individuals  
sending in emails and letters.  
Councilmember Henjum stated by Councilmember Donelson identifying  
that Ms. Lovell previously failed the CPA exam, he is assigning intention to  
a behavior. She stated Ms. Lovell took the CPA in 2011, she missed  
passing by two questions, and because it happened so long ago, it may  
not have occurred to her to bring it up, they should not assume she is  
withholding information, and it was her recommendation for her to obtain a  
CIA.  
Councilmember Leinweber stated he believes good leadership stands up  
to look at if the requirements are right for a position, his was also evaluated  
by the Human Resources Department, he voted to hire Ms. Lovell because  
of the leadership needed for the Auditor’s Office, and eighty percent of the  
job is compliance issues, not CPA matters.  
Ms. Lovell stated she did sit for the CPA exam sometime between 2011 to  
2012 timeframe right before shifting her career to project management,  
she was not trying to hide that fact, she was focused on what was relevant  
today, and in lieu of the CPA, she has offered to acquire the CIA. She  
stated she does not walk away from challenges, she reassesses when it is  
the right business decision, and puts focus on the greatest impact of doing  
her job as City Auditor.  
Motion by Councilmember Henjum, seconded by Councilmember  
Leinweber, to amend the Ordinance No. 25-69 amending Ordinance No.  
25-31, Section 5 (Appointing Natalie Lovell as City Auditor and  
prescribing her duties, compensation, and tenure in office, and
