Item No. 1 - ORD - rezoning of property at 7575 W. 44th Ave
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. This request is solely addressing the potential zone change and the City has not received or reviewed any redevelopment proposals for the site at this time.
