GO HERE TO SIGN THE PETITION
(Signed by 656 supporters so far)
Reject 20 and 12-story buildings at Sloan’s Lake
Mayor Michael B. Hancock
Rocky Piro, Executive director, Community Planning and Development
Lauri Dannemiller, Manager, Denver Parks and Recreation
Jose E. Cornejo, Manager Public Works
Susan Shepherd, Councilwoman
While I support revitalization, I strongly oppose the current GDP, which includes 20 and 12-story buildings at Sloan’s Lake.
The vast majority of speakers at the Planning Board hearing on 12.18.13 expressed serious concern about the excessive scale of this plan, and its lack of open space. Ignoring taxpayers’ and citizens’ concerns is incompatible with good governance and is not what I as a voter wish to see in Denver.
I respectfully ask that you, and the Development Review Committee, only approve a GDP for South Sloan’s Lake once it has been amended to reflect the following:
– Increased open space from 1.4 to 2.5 acres, to be aggregated along 17th Avenue
– Building heights not to exceed 3 stories on the site’s perimeter
– Building heights in the interior not to exceed 8 stories
These changes reflect citizens’ input, require a modest increase in zoning and are consistent with the extensive St. Anthony’s Redevelopment Task Force Plan.
In addition, the West Highland Neighborhood Association has requested Councilwoman Shepherd to initiate rezoning of this property immediately, to reflect the above points. I support this and respectfully request that you do the same.
Right-sizing the GDP and proactively changing zoning now avoids multiple divisive and costly zoning fights over this site in the future; it provides the predictability that both residents and developers deserve and will be an example of great leadership by the Mayor and City Council.
Thank you for your service.
[Your name]
