I -70 / Kipling Corridors
Urban Renewal Plan
Wheat Ridge, Colorado
1.0 Preface and Background
1.1 Preface
This 1 -70/ Kipling Corridors Urban Renezval Plan (the "Plan" or the "Urban
Renewal Plan ") has been prepared by the Wheat Ridge Urban Renewal
Authority (the "Authority") for the City of Wheat Ridge ( "City "). It will be
carried out by the Authority, pursuant to the provisions of the Urban Renewal
Law of the State of Colorado, Part 1 of Article 25 of Title 31, Colorado Revised
Statutes, 1973, as amended (the "Act'). The administration and implementation
of this Plan, including the preparation and execution of any documents
implementing it, shall be performed by the Authority.
1.2 Blight Findings
Under the Act, an urban renewal area is a blighted area, which has been
designated as appropriate for an urban renewal project. In each urban renewal
area, conditions of blight, as defined by the Act, must be present, and in order for
the Authority to exercise its powers, the City Council must find that the presence
of those conditions of blight, "substantially impairs or arrests the sound growth
of the municipality or constitutes an economic or social liability, and is a menace
to the public health, safety, morals or welfare."
LELAND CONSULTING GROUP (20 July 2009)

The 1- 70/Kipling Corridors Conditions Survey, prepared by Matrix Design Group,
submitted June 2009, which is attached hereto as Attachment 1 (the "Blight
Study "), demonstrates that the I -70 / Kipling Corridors Area ( "Study Area "), as
defined in the Blight Study, is a blighted area under the Act.
1.3 Other Findings
The Area is appropriate for one or more urban renewal projects and other
undertakings authorized by the Act to be advanced by the Authority. Projects
could require the demolition and clearance of certain public and private
improvements within the Area as provided in this Plan. If this is the case, such
actions will be determined to be necessary in order to eliminate unsafe
conditions, obsolete and other uses detrimental to the public welfare, and
otherwise remove and prevent the spread of deterioration.
The Authority has the discretion to create a single or several tax increment areas
within a single urban renewal planning area. In addition, it is at the Authority's
discretion whether or not to initiate creation of one or several tax increment areas
at the time the Plan is adopted by City Council. Factors that could support
creation of a tax increment district include announcement of a specific project or
prevailing or impending market and / or economic conditions.
Further, the Authority is entitled to all powers authorized in the Act. It is the
intent of the City Council in adopting this Plan that the Authority exercise all
powers which are necessary, convenient or appropriate to accomplish the
objectives of the Plan. In addition, it is the intent of the Plan that the Authority
exercise all such powers as may now be possessed or hereafter granted for the
elimination of qualifying conditions in the Area.
LELAND CONSULTING GROUP (20 July 2009)
The powers conferred by the Act are for public uses and purposes for which
public money may be expended and police powers exercised; and, this Plan is in
the public interest and necessity - such finding being a matter of legislative
determination by the City Council.
1.4 Urban Renewal Area Boundaries
The proposed I -70 / Kipling Corridors Urban Renewal Area (referred to herein
as "the Urban Renewal Area" or "the Area ") is located within the City of Wheat
Ridge and Jefferson County, Colorado as delineated in Figure No.1 and
described in the legal description presented in the Appendix. The boundaries of
the Area generally include properties roughly following a U- shaped corridor that
runs north along Interstate 70 beginning at 32nd Avenue, then east along the
Interstate until Kipling Street, and finally south along Kipling Street until 26th
Avenue. The survey area contains 649 real property parcels. In terms of land
area, the Area consists of approximately 1,189 total acres (including any streets or
rights -of -way) of which approximately 812 acres lie within real property parcels.

3.0 Purpose of the Plan
The purpose of the I- 70 /Kipling Corridors Urban Renewal Plan is to reduce,
eliminate and prevent the spread of blight within the Area and to stimulate
growth and investment within the Area boundaries. To accomplish this purpose,
the Plan promotes local objectives with respect to appropriate land uses, private
investment and public improvements, provided that the delineation of such
objectives shall not be construed to require that any particular project necessarily
promote all such objectives. Specifically, the Plan promotes an environment
which allows for a range of uses and product types, as supported by the City of
Wheat Ridge Area Comprehensive Plan, Updated 2000 and any subsequent updates,
as well as any other relevant policy documents which leverage the community's
investment in public improvement projects in the Area.
While the principal goal of this urban renewal effort, as required by the Act, is to
afford maximum opportunity consistent with the sound needs of the City of
Wheat Ridge as a whole, and to develop and rehabilitate the Area by private
enterprise; it is not intended to replace the efforts of area business development
entities.
3.1 Public Participation
The Plan has been made available to business and property owners located
within and adjacent to the Plan boundaries, as well as Wheat Ridge residents at-
large. All stakeholders and residents were also invited to participate in several
LELAND CONSULTING GROUP (20 July 2009)
10
venues: workshops held between April and May 2009 designed to solicit input
on the vision for the Area. In all, more than 100 individuals participated. In
addition, City staff received written comments via e -mail and phone calls.
Notification of the public hearing was provided to property owners and owners
of business concerns at their last known address of record within the Area as
required by the Act. Notice of the public hearing to consider the Plan was
published in the Wheat Ridge Transcript. Presentations were also made at public
meetings of the City Council and Planning Commission during the summer of
2009 to receive comments and input on the process and Plan documents. As
required by the Act, a report outlining the potential impact of the Plan on
Jefferson County was prepared and submitted along with the Plan document to
the County Commissioners of Jefferson County not less than 30 days before
consideration of its approval.
4.0 Qualifying Conditions
Before an urban renewal plan can be adopted by the City, the area must be
determined to be a "blighted area" as defined in Section 31 -25- 103(2) of the Act,
which provides that, in its present condition and use, the presence of at least four
of the following factors in the Area, substantially impairs or arrests the sound
growth of the municipality, retards the provision of housing accommodations, or
constitutes an economic or social liability, and is a menace to the public health,
safety, morals, or welfare:
(a) Slum, deteriorated, or deteriorating structures,
(b) Predominance of defective or inadequate street layout;
(c) Faulty lot layout in relation to size, adequacy, accessibility, or usefulness;
(d) Unsanitary or unsafe conditions,
LELAND CONSULTING GROUP (20 July 2009)

Of such owner or owners, if any, to the inclusion of such property in an urban
renewal area, "blighted area" also means an area that, in its present conditions
and use and, by reason of the presences of any one of the factors specified in
paragraphs (a) to (k.5) of Section 31 -25- 103(2), substantially impairs or arrests
the sound growth of the municipality, retards the provision of housing
accommodations, or constitutes an economic or social liability, and is a menace to
the public health, safety, morals, or welfare.
The Act also provides that, if private property is to be acquired by the Authority
by eminent domain, at least five of the factors specified in Section 31- 25- 103(2)(a)
to (2)(1) must be present.
The general methodology for conducting the Blight Study is to: (i) define the
Study Area; (ii) gather information about the Study Area, such as right -of -way
and parcel boundaries, aerial photography, etc.; (iii) evaluate evidence of blight
through field reconnaissance of the Study Area to document observed physical
conditions of blight; and, (iv) collect data about blight factors that are not
visually observable.
LELAND CONSULTING GROUP (20 July 2009)

Relationship to Comprehensive Plan
A general plan for the City, known as the City of Wheat Ridge Area Comprehensive
Plan, was updated in 2000. The Authority, with the cooperation of the City,
private enterprise and other public bodies, will undertake projects and activities
described in this Plan in order to eliminate the conditions of blight identified
herein while implementing the goals and objectives of the City of Wheat Ridge
Area Comprehensive Plan, Updated 2000 and all subsequent updates. Specific
elements of the City of Wheat Ridge Area Comprehensive Plan, Updated 2000 which
this Plan advances, are presented in Appendix C of this Plan (and taken
verbatim). References from other adopted and accepted documents
LELAND CONSULTING GROUP (20 July 2009)
13
(Repositioning Wheat Ridge, Neighborhood Revitalization Strategy; and Wheat Ridge
Northwest Sub -Area Plan) that speak to issues within the Urban Renewal Area are
also provided.
Pursuant to State Statutes, the 1- 70 /Kipling Corridors Urban Renewal Plan was
reviewed by the Planning and Zoning Commission on August 6, 2009 and a
Resolution was passed indicating that the Plan was consistent with certain Goals,
Policies and Strategies contained in the Wheat Ridge Area Comprehensive Plan,
Updated 2000 and other City adopted and accepted plans.
6.0 Plan Objectives
6.1 General Description
The vision for the Area as defined by stakeholders involved in the process is:
Redevelopment of the Urban Renewal Area represents a unique opportunity to create a series of
destinations that are both region- serving and locally supportive. This Urban Renewal Plan, while
not a regulating document, envisions quality materials; notable architecture, strong internal and
external connections, and, host environments for public events and cultural venues.
New uses and redevelopment of existing uses may be developed in mixed -use and multi-
use formats where feasible, and in an architectural style that is regionally - relevant.
Whereas existing neighborhoods will be stabilized, new neighborhoods will be co-located
with commercial, employment and institutional uses. Improvements in the physical
realm will be consistent and communicate a unified identity and brand. Connections for
vehicles, pedestrians, bicycles and other modes of transportation will be improved and
strengthened in a manner that is regionally- relevant and in accordance with the
Architectural and Site Design Manual.
LELAND CONSULTING GROUP (20 July 2009)
14
6.2 Development and Design Objectives
All development in the Plan Area shall conform to the zoning and development
codes of the Wheat Ridge Municipal Code, as well as any site - specific zoning
regulations or policies which might impact properties in the Area, all as in effect
and as may be amended from time to time. Codes and regulations present at the
time of any project application and development will apply. No project within
the Urban Renewal Area is vested to previous codes or regulations.
While the Act authorizes the Authority to undertake zoning and planning
activities to regulate land use, maximum densities, and building requirements in
the Area, the City will regulate land use and building requirements.
The primary development objective of this Urban Renewal Plan is strategic
investment in the public realm that will leverage private sector projects.
Potential land uses within the Urban Renewal Area include a range of
commercial, employment (industrial and office), residential, institutional,
lodging, civic, cultural and parking. Other, more general development objectives
include flexibility given changing market conditions; adaptability to a range of
uses and product types; and, consistency in building material and development
quality. Specific project goals and objectives identified by the stakeholders, in
collaboration with impacted property owners, that investment within the Urban
Renewal Area should aspire to, include the following:
1. Eliminate and prevent blight
2. Implement elements of the City of Wheat Ridge Comprehensive Plan, Update
2000 related to urban renewal and the vision of this Plan
3. Ensure orderly growth throughout the community
4. Stimulate development of under- utilized land in the Urban Renewal Area

LELAND CONSULTING GROUP (20 July 2009)
17
6.3 Public Investment Objectives
Existing conditions present within the Area will be remedied by the proposed
Plan, but will first need to be identified as a priority public investment item by
the Authority, in consultation with the stakeholders. As it is the intent of this
Plan that improvements will only be partially funded by tax increment revenues,
creation of special districts and /or other financing districts to serve as
supplemental funding sources will not only be considered, but encouraged.
Experience has proven that a critical component to the success of any urban
renewal effort is participation by both the public and private sectors. This said,
leveraging of resources will be key as no one entity, either public or private, has
sufficient resources alone to sustain a long -term improvement effort.
7.0 Authorized Urban Renewal Undertakings and Activities
The Act allows for a wide range of activities to be used in the implementation of
an urban renewal plan. In the case of this Plan, it is the Authority's intent to
provide incentives to stimulate private investment in cooperation with property
owners and other affected parties in order to accomplish its objectives. Public -
private partnerships and other forms of cooperative development will be key to
the Authority's strategy for preventing the spread of blight and eliminating
existing blight conditions. Reliance on powers such as eminent domain will only
be considered as a final option, as determined by the City Council, to achieve the
objectives of this Plan.
7.1 Public Improvements and Facilities
The Authority may undertake certain actions to make the Area more attractive
for private investment. The Authority may, or cause others to, install, construct,
and reconstruct any public improvements. Additionally, the Authority may, or
LELAND CONSULTING GROUP (20 July 2009)
18
cause others to, demolish and clear buildings and existing improvements for the
purpose of promoting the objectives of the Plan and the Act. Finally, the
Authority may, or may cause others to, install, construct and reconstruct any
other authorized improvements in the Area, including, without limitation, other
authorized undertakings or improvements for the purpose of promoting the
objectives of this Plan and the Act.
Public projects are intended to stimulate (directly and indirectly) private sector
investment in and around the Area. The combination of public and private
investment will assist in the investment and reinvestment of the Area with a
greater intensity and quality of viable commercial, employment, residential and
mixed -use sub -areas supported by multiple forms of transportation and public
spaces contributing to the overall economic well -being of the community.
As described in Section 4.0 of this Plan, ten qualifying conditions of blight, as
defined in Section 31 -25- 103(2) of the Act, are evident in the Area. This Plan
proposes addressing each of these conditions through potential completion of the
following public improvements and facilities:
(a) Slum, Deteriorated and Deteriorating Structures: building improvements
including facades, fencing, roof repairs; and, graffiti clean -up;
(b) Predominance of Defective or Inadequate Street Layout: completion of
incomplete streets and sidewalks; increased road and intersection
capacity; roadway repairs; and, stronger connections;
(c) Faulty Lot Layout in Relation to Size, Adequacy, Accessibility, or
Usefulness: (see Predominance of Defective or Inadequate Street Layout);
and, assemblage of small, narrow and awkwardly shaped parcels;
(d) Unsanitary or Unsafe Conditions: pedestrian improvements; ADA
improvements; lighting; bike paths; deferred maintenance items
LELAND CONSULTING GROUP (20 July 2009)
19
including cracked and buckled sidewalks; and, roadway improvements
designed to arrest congestion;
(e) Deterioration of Site or Other Improvements: improvements to parking
surfaces; curbs and gutters; and, signs and advertisements;
(f) Unusual Topography or Inadequate Public Improvements or Utilities:
undergrounding of overhead utilities; increasing infrastructure capacity
where necessary; and, completion of curbs, gutters and sidewalks;
(h) Existence of Conditions that Endanger Life or Property by Fire and Other
Causes: sprinklering of commercial buildings; and, improved access for
emergency vehicles;
(i) Buildings That Are Unsafe or Unhealthy for Persons to Live or Work:
demolition of substandard structures;
(j) Environmental Contamination of Buildings or Property: assistance with
site and building environmental clean -up;
(k.5) Existence of Factors Requiring High Levels of Municipal Services or
Substantial Physical Underutilization or Vacancy of Sites, Buildings or
Other Improvements: stronger code enforcement; site assemblage; site
prep; and, assistance with post - development leasing strategies.
7.2 Other Improvements and Facilities
There could be other non - public improvements in the Area that may be required
to accommodate development and redevelopment. The Authority may assist in
the financing or construction of these improvements.
7.3 Development Opportunities— Catalyst Projects
A key concept associated with implementation of the Plan is targeted investment
that will serve to catalyze development throughout the Area and fund future
LELAND CONSULTING GROUP (20 July 2009)
20
public improvements. The aggregate impact of potential investment within the
Area is reflected in the Impact Report in Attachment 2.
7.4 Development Standards
All development in the Area shall conform to applicable rules, regulations,
policies and other requirements and standards of the City and any other
governmental entity which has jurisdiction over all or any portion of the Area.
In conformance with the Act and the Plan, the Authority may adopt design
standards and other requirements applicable to projects undertaken by the
Authority in the Area. Unless otherwise approved by City Council, any such
standards and requirements adopted by the Authority shall be consistent with all
other City zoning and development policies and regulations.
7.5 Variations in the Plan

7.6 Urban Renewal Plan Review Process
The review process for the Plan is intended to provide a mechanism to allow
those parties responsible for implementing key projects to periodically evaluate
its effectiveness and make adjustments to ensure efficiency in implementing the
recommended activities.
The following steps are intended to serve as a guide for future Plan review:
(a) The Authority may propose modifications (including expansion of the Plan
boundaries), and the City Council may make such modifications as may be
necessary provided they are consistent with the City of Wheat Ridge
Comprehensive Plan, Updated 2000 and any subsequent updates, as well as
the Act.
(b) Modifications may be developed from suggestions by the Authority,
property and business owners, and City staff operating in support of the
Authority and advancement of this Plan.
(c) A series of joint workshops may be held by and between the Authority and
property and business owners to direct and review the development of
Plan modifications.
7.7 Project Financing and Creation of Tax Increment Areas
While projects within the Area are planned to be primarily privately financed, it
is the intent of the City Council in approving this Urban Renewal Plan to
authorize the use of tax increment financing by the Authority to assist with the
development of these projects. Urban renewal authorities in Colorado are
authorized by statute (C.R.S 31 -25 -105) to borrow money and accept advances,
LELAND CONSULTING GROUP (20 July 2009)
22
loans, grants and contributions from public or private sources, and to issue
bonds to finance their activities or operations. In practice, an accepted method
for financing urban renewal projects is to utilize incremental property tax and /
or municipal sales tax revenues attributable to redevelopment in the project area
to pay the principal of, the interest on, and any premiums due in connection with
the bonds of, loans or advances to, or indebtedness incurred by the Authority.
The boundaries of the Urban Renewal Area shall be as set forth in Appendix A.
As more fully set forth herein this Section 7.7, it is the intent of City Council in
approving this Plan to authorize the use of tax increment financing by the
Authority as part of its efforts to undertake and advance the Plan.
7.8 Property Acquisition and Land Assemblage
The Authority may acquire property by negotiation or any other method
authorized by the Act, except that any proposal to acquire property under the
power of eminent domain must be approved by the City Council in accordance
with the Act. The Authority may temporarily operate, manage and maintain
property in the Area with the consent of the owner of the property. Such
property shall be under the management and control of the Authority and may
be rented or leased pending its disposition for redevelopment.
7.9 Relocation Assistance
It is not anticipated that acquisition of real property by the Authority will result
in the relocation of any individuals, families, or business concerns. However, if
such relocation becomes necessary, the Authority will adopt a relocation plan in
conformance with the Act.
LELAND CONSULTING GROUP (20 July 2009)
23
7.10 Demolition, Clearance, Environmental Remediation, and Site Prep
In carrying out this Plan, it is anticipated that the Authority may, on a case -by-
case basis, elect to demolish and clear buildings, structures and other
improvements. Additionally, development activities consistent with this Plan,
including but not limited to Development or Cooperation Agreements, may
require such demolition and clearance to eliminate unhealthy, unsanitary, and
unsafe conditions, eliminate obsolete and other uses detrimental to the public
welfare, and otherwise remove and prevent the spread of deterioration.
With respect to property acquired by the Authority, it may demolish and clear,
or contract to demolish and clear, those buildings, structures and other
improvements pursuant to this Plan, if in the judgment of the Authority, such
buildings, structures and other improvements cannot be rehabilitated in
accordance with this Plan. The Authority may also undertake such additional
site preparation activities as it deems necessary to facilitate the disposition and
development of such property.
7.11 Property Disposition
The Authority may acquire, sell, lease, or otherwise transfer real property or any
interest in real property subject to covenants, conditions and restrictions,
including architectural and design controls, time restrictions on development,
and building requirements, as it deems necessary to develop such property. Real
property or interests in real property may be sold, leased or otherwise
transferred for use in accordance with the Act and this Plan. All property and
interest in real estate acquired by the Authority in the Area that is not dedicated
or transferred to public entities, shall be sold or otherwise disposed of for
redevelopment in accordance with the provision of this Plan and the Act.
LELAND CONSULTING GROUP (20 July 2009)

7.12 Redevelopment and Rehabilitation Actions
Redevelopment and rehabilitation actions within the Area may include such
undertakings and activities as are in accordance with this Plan and the Act,
including without limitation: demolition and removal of buildings and
improvements as set forth herein; installation, construction and reconstruction of
public improvements; elimination of unhealthful, unsanitary or unsafe
conditions; elimination of obsolete or other uses detrimental to the public
welfare; prevention of the spread of deterioration; and, provision of land for
needed public facilities. The Authority may enter into Cooperation Agreements
and Redevelopment/ Development Agreements to provide assistance or
undertake all other actions authorized by the Act or other applicable law to
redevelop and rehabilitate the Area.
7.13 Redevelopment/ Development Agreements
The Authority is authorized to enter into Redevelopment/ Development
Agreements or other contracts with developer(s) or property owners or such
other individuals or entities as are determined by the Authority to be necessary
or desirable to carry out the purposes of this Plan. Such Redevelopment/
Development Agreements, or other contracts, may contain terms and provisions
as shall be deemed necessary or appropriate by the Authority for the purpose of
undertaking the activities contemplated by this Plan and the Act, and may
further provide for such undertakings by the Authority, including financial
assistance, as may be necessary for the achievement of the objectives of this Plan
or as may otherwise be authorized by the Act. These Agreements will be
separate from this Plan, yet in support of its goals and objectives. Existing
agreements between the City and private parties that are consistent with this
Plan are intended to remain in full force and effect.
LELAND CONSULTING GROUP (20 July 2009)
25
7.14 Cooperation Agreements
For the purpose of this Plan, the Authority may enter into one or more
Cooperation Agreements pursuant to the Act. The City and the Authority
recognize the need to cooperate in the implementation of this Plan and, as such,
Cooperation Agreements may include, without limitation, agreements regarding
the planning or implementation of this Plan and its projects, as well as programs,
public works operations, or activities which the Authority, the City or such other
public body is otherwise empowered to undertake and including without
limitation, agreements respecting the financing, installation, construction and
reconstruction of public improvements, utility line relocation, storm water
detention, environmental remediation, landscaping and /or other eligible
improvements. This paragraph shall not be construed to require any particular
form of cooperation.
8.0 Project Financing
8.1 Public Investment Objective
It is the intent of the Plan that the public sector will play a significant role in
urban renewal efforts as a strategic partner. Typical infrastructure investments
the public would anticipate making include, but are not limited to: unifying
streetscape elements (but for specific modifications made on private property);
improving access and circulation; improving streets and parks; providing for
infrastructure improvements; completing utilities; and, creating special districts
or other financing mechanisms.
LELAND CONSULTING GROUP (20 July 2009)
26
8.2 Authorization
The Authority may finance undertakings pursuant to this Plan by any method
authorized under the Act or any other applicable law, including without
limitation: issuance of notes, bonds and other obligations in an amount sufficient
to finance all or part of this Plan; borrowing of funds and creation of
indebtedness; advancement of reimbursement agreements; and / or utilization of
the following: federal or state loans or grants; interest income; annual
appropriation agreements; agreements with public or private entities; and loans,
advances and grants from any other available sources. The principal, interest,
costs and fees on any indebtedness are to be paid for with any lawfully available
funds of the Authority.
Debt may include bonds, refunding bonds, notes, interim certificates or receipts,
temporary bonds, certificates of indebtedness, or any other obligation lawfully
created.
8.3 Project Revenues
8.3.1 Tax Increment Financing
The Plan contemplates that a primary method of financing projects within
the Area will be through the use of property tax and City Sales Tax
increments. The Authority shall be authorized to pledge all or any
portion of such property tax and City Sales Tax increment revenues for
financing public infrastructure that benefits the Area pursuant to one or
more Cooperation Agreements.
LELAND CONSULTING GROUP (20 July 2009)
27
8.3.2 Distribution of Tax Revenues
As specified in any amendment to this Plan which creates a new Tax
Increment Area as set forth herein, property taxes and /or City Taxes
levied after the effective date of the approval of such amendment shall be
divided for a period commencing on the date of City Council approval of
such amendment and continuing for a period not -to- exceed twenty -five
years in accordance with Section 31 -25- 107(9) of the Act and the terms of
any applicable Cooperation Agreement.
8.4 Other Financing Mechanisms/ Structures
The Plan is designed to provide for the use of tax increment financing as one tool
to facilitate investment and reinvestment within the Area. However, in addition
to tax increment financing, the Authority shall be authorized to finance
implementation of the Plan by any method authorized by the Act. The Authority
is committed to making a variety of strategies and mechanisms available which
are financial, physical, market and organizational in nature. It is the intent of this
Plan to use the tools either independently or in various combinations. Given the
obstacles associated with development, the Authority recognizes that it is
imperative that solutions and resources be put in place which are
comprehensive, flexible and creative.
9.0 Severability
If any portion of this Plan is held to be invalid or unenforceable, such invalidity
will not affect the remaining portions of the Plan.
