Thank you!
Despite the delay, residents came out full force Saturday for the East Area Plan Community Workshop, and we couldn't be more grateful. More than 500 of you listened, offered respectful comments, asked important questions and helped continue to shape the vision for your neighborhoods. Thank you for engaging in your area plan!

If you were not able to attend, or know neighbors who didn't, there are still multiple opportunities to share your voice on the updates to the draft plan.
Participate online:
  • Read the workshop presentation slides to get an overview of the East Area Planning progress and see how the draft plan recommendations first released in May were updated, following community feedback.
  • Visit the online workshop to see the updated recommendations and comment directly on the documents.
  • Take the survey on approaches to building heights and community benefits.
  • Take the survey on approaches to housing options in neighborhoods.
Talk to planners at upcoming community office hours:

About the East Area Plan
The East Planning Area neighborhoods—South Park Hill, Montclair, Hale, and East Colfax—contain many great community assets, including historic parkways, the Rose Medical Center, Johnson and Wales University, and many unique, locally-owned businesses. The area is experiencing some significant changes, such as the 9th and Colorado mixed use project, as well as plans to add Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) along Colfax Avenue. Two of the four neighborhoods, South Park Hill and East Colfax, have out of date plans, while Hale and Montclair have no plans at all.

The Neighborhood Planning Initiative provides a great opportunity to establish the community’s vision for maintaining and enhancing the quality of life in these neighborhoods for decades to come.
