The Rezoning meeting for petition 2014-044 known as the “Park at Montford” project has been postponed until July 21 based on feedback from City Planning and CDOT staff. Below is an excerpt from the city’s response today (5-22-14) to the proposed revised plan as presented to them by the developer, Selwyn Property Group.
The HOA will keep you updated if the petition date is changed again.
Thank you,

Excerpt - The major areas of concern in no particular order are as follows:
- Requesting a urban zoning but not providing an urban product such as operable doors onto Park Rd and asking to opt out of urban open space
- Access to Drexmore and treatment of that connection. We would like to discuss more about the desire/need for this connection. If there is a connection staff would like to see it have a 6 ft wide sidewalk with a planting strip at back of curb and separation between the sidewalk and property line.
- Transition to single family neighborhood on the Drexmore portion of the site and the architecture and design of the townhomes in relation to the single family homes.
- Buffer treatment at the rear of the parking deck. We would like have more discussions about the appearance of the rear of the deck from the two neighboring single family homes.
In addition, staff would like to look at how this project relates to the broader picture of expected redevelopment in the immediate area.
