City Council approved Ordinance No. 2222 on July 30, 2024. 





Mixed Use Development

Project Summary

City Council approved Ordinance No. 2222 which amended the Broomfield Municipal Code Chapter 17-06-010, Districts; established, and Chapter 17-48, Amendments, and added Chapters 17-19 TOD-1 Transit Oriented Development District, 17-23 MU-1 Suburban Mixed Use District, and 17-23.1 MU-2 Employment Mixed Use District.


Ordinance Details and Staff Analysis

As such, Proposed Ordinance No. 2232 proposes to add new sections of code to Titles 16 and 17 of the Broomfield Municipal Code to create a 180-day limit of inactivity of projects prior to their being deemed void and closed. The proposal also includes an opportunity for applicants to ask for extensions to this time limit of an additional 180 days.

The intent for these new districts is to create opportunities for high quality transit oriented development and mixed-use developments in appropriate locations.

In addition to adding new zoning districts, proposed Ordinance No. 2222 would also add a requirement for property owners requesting a rezoning to one of the new districts to provide preliminary utility, drainage and traffic reports as part of their rezoning request application materials. The City Engineer could waive the report requirements when such information will not materially aid in the evaluation of the rezoning request.

Proposed Ordinance No. 2222 would amend Chapters 17-06-010 and 17-48 of the Broomfield Municipal Code, and add Chapters 17-19 TOD-1 Transit Oriented Development District, 17-23 MU-1 Suburban Mixed Use District, and 17-23.1 MU-2 Employment Mixed Use District.
