Despite an appeal to the Denver Board of Adjustment the Humboldt Street Neighborhood Association lost its appeal by a vote of 4-1.  The administrative appeal was filed by the Humboldt Street Neighborhood Association to the Board of Adjustment for Zoning Appeals in Cases 150-16 ad 151-16. The neighborhood association appealed the granting by the Zoning Administrator of a permit to allow the construction at 108 residential apartments and a restaurant in two new buildings on two adjacent zone lots with no parking spaces at 1570 and 1578 Humboldt Street and that the permits were granted in error because the 2010 Zoning Code did not intend to allow the small lot parking exemption for new buildings or for a combination of two small lots.  At the September 10 Delegate meeting the Delegation  supported a motion that the permits were in error.
