The 2018 Reality Check Survey was conducted to help the three partner organizations – Community Spaces, The Denver Office of Strategic Partnerships, and Sharing Connexion – better understand the impact of rising commercial rents and gentrification on nonprofits, social enterprises, and mission-driven businesses (referred to collectively for the remainder of the report as mission-driven organizations) operating in the City of Denver.
On Saturday, September 9, 2017, INC sponsored a forum to discuss the PLATTE TO PARKHILL STORMWATER DIVERSION AND THE 1-70 EXPANSION. At the close of the meeting, a resolution was put forth to the delegates which passed. See the video of the entire forum here
Opponents of the expansion want to see the I-270/I-76 route used for through traffic, with local traffic between Stapleton and downtown handled by surface streets.
Zeppelin is part of the force behind TAXI and other prominent RiNo projects, and he lives in the Globeville neighborhood with his wife and young daughters. He is funding a significant portion of the lawsuit, with the Ditch the Ditch community group also raising more than $50,000 toward the effort.
Zeppelin described himself as “unwilling to play the patronage game” and be silent about something he thinks is wrong in exchange for favorable status with city officials.
As stated in previous correspondence, we are concerned about the proposed transformation of Globeville Landing Park from its existing conditions to a major detention and conveyance area without full discussion with the community.
The process and proposed utilization of the park is unacceptable. As we discussed, a community meeting in January is essential. Please propose date, time, place for that meeting.
We expect that in addition to your presence, public works, storm drainage, parks and NDCC will be present.
Set forth below are particular issues that must be addressed at the community meeting:
