Dear Denver East Neighborhood Friends:
We have to flier our neighborhood by Sunday at noon. CAN YOU HELP?????
BIG CHANGES COMING DURING Monday’s Council Vote
The city proposes to eliminate all parking requirements if certain affordable housing mandates are met along Colorado Blvd and Colfax Avenue.
This will impact residents from 13th Ave to 17th Ave and Colorado to Birch/Bellaire (approximately a quarter mile off of each corridor). Basically, large buildings will be allowed to be built with absolutely no parking provided.
Previously, community planning and community input proposed that the elimination of all parking requirements should only occur at fixed railed stations. NOW, they are voting on Monday to remove parking requirements at any high/mid capacity corridors and any enhanced transit corridor as defined in Blueprint Denver. This will impact any road where the city has invested funds.
Per Proposal: enhanced transit infrastructure would include but is not limited to, dedicated transit lanes, off-board fare collection, real-time arrival/departure technology, and enhanced stops and stations intended for passenger queuing, loading, and unloading for the purpose of this definition, “under construction” shall mean an order of notice to proceed for construction has been issued.
While we all hope for affordable housing and decent transit this proposal does not strike the right balance.
We need your help to flier our neighborhoods, donations and your activism to stop this runaway train which lacked public input and education.
Help us flier, speak at the council meeting on Monday and send in your comments.
Please see attached flier.
