Zone Change at 7575 W 44th Ave
Approved
The City of Wheat Ridge is requesting approval of a zone change from Commercial-One (C-1) to Mixed Use-Commercial (MU-C) for the property at 7575 W. 44th Avenue. The City currently owns the property and will be transferring the land to Foothills Regional Housing. The zone change will result in a zoning that encourages revitalization and redevelopment of the site. Foothills Regional Housing intends to incorporate the site for a future expansion of the Ives development.
Subdivision and Development Review Process
Approved
The proposed ordinance updates Chapter 2 and Chapter 26 of the Code of Laws to revise the City's development review requirements, focused on subdivisions. The ordinance is intended to: 1) prioritize meaningful public engagement and education intended to inform the public of impactful subdivision applications, 2) to reduce reliance on public hearings when the proposed uses and designs are already permitted by the underlying zoning, and 3) to reduce duplication and unnecessary cross-references in the Code to ensure it is easy to understand and administer.
Code Amendment related to Hotel Licensing
Approved
On October 25, 2021, City Council passed Ordinance 1723, adding a new Article XIV to Chapter 11 of the Wheat Ridge Code of Laws to establish a hotel licensing program and extended stay lodging regulations. The ordinance also updated the permitted use charts in Chapter 26. Section 11-569 of the Code requires City Council to review the implementation of the ordinance on or before June 30, 2023, and every 18 months thereafter. Accordingly, staff presented a program update to City Council on June 12, 2023. As a result of that update and based on lessons learned, a few minor code amendments are being proposed in the attached ordinance. This includes a minor edit in Chapter 26 regarding the term length of a special use permit for a hotel. As an edit to the zoning code, this provision requires Planning Commission review.
