Motion carried 5-0-1 with Commissioner SPARKS abstaining. PUBLIC FORUM No one wished to speak at this time. PUBLIC HEARING 1. WZ-25-01 An application filed by Applewood RV Resort LLC for approval of a Specific Development Plan (SDP) to redevelop Lot 1 of the site for 28 RV parking spaces on a property zoned Planned Commercial Development (PCD) and located at 11600 West 44th Avenue. Ms. Easley gave a short presentation regarding the Specific Development Plan and the application on behalf of Stephanie Stevens, the case manager. She entered into the record the case file, zoning ordinance, comprehensive plan, and the digital presentation. She stated the public notice and posting requirements have been met, therefore the Planning Commission has jurisdiction to hear this case. David Theisen, LJA Engineering, Applicant 4700 S Syracuse, Ste. 500, Denver Mr. Theisen thanked staff for their presentation and gave a brief presentation emphasizing that the project creates a loop system for low-speed traffic movements and includes fire code-compliant lanes and reinforced pavement sections for emergency vehicles. The design incorporates neighborhood compatibility features including landscape buffers, fencing, and lighting controls, adding that only the northern part of the property will be redeveloped and there will be no changes to the southern end. He also explained that the project is not growth for growth's sake, but necessary modernization to accommodate today's larger RVs and guest demands. The expansion will improve circulation patterns, emergency access, and utility connections. The project is expected to reduce daily traffic by approximately 593 trips compared to the existing commercial use. Public Comment Vice Chair DISNEY opened the public comment. Dave Nosler 11691 W 45th Place Mr. Nosler, a resident from the townhome section across from the site, spoke about traffic concerns on 44th Avenue. He noted that the area already experiences significant traffic challenges, particularly at the intersection of 44th and Tabor Street. He expressed concerns about the single ingress/egress point for the RV park and the existing double yellow line on 44th Avenue that prevents legal left turns. Vice Chair DISNEY closed the public comment. In response to public comments, Mr. Tyson clarified that traffic counts were based on standard calculations for commercial retail space, and the projected reduction is based on replacing commercial use with lower-traffic-generating RV spaces. Commissioner SPARKS asked about fire department access requirements. Ms. Easley confirmed the Arvada Fire Protection District had reviewed the plan and issued a "can serve" status subject to continued coordination. Mr. Theisen added that he had met with the fire department twice during the conceptual phase and they had no objections to the proposed access. Commissioner HOLUB inquired about how the traffic study accounted for different classes of RVs. Mr. Theisen explained that RVs were not broken out separately in the traffic analysis, as they typically arrive as one unit. Commissioner GRAEVE asked about the maximum length of stay at the park. Ms. Easley confirmed it is 30 days with the possibility of renewal in certain circumstances. Commissioner GRAEVE also expressed concerns about the existing pattern of drivers making illegal left turns across the double yellow line on 44th Avenue. Ms. Easley noted that the city's Public Works department is currently examining improvements to the intersection of 44th and Tabor as part of a broader effort guided by the 44th Avenue Subarea Plan and other planning documents. It was moved by Commissioner QUINONES and seconded by Commissioner SPARKS to APPROVE Case No. WZ-25-01, a request for approval of a Specific Development Plan to redevelop Lot 1 of the site for 28 RV parking spaces on property zoned Planned Commercial Development and located at 11600 West 44th Avenue, for the following reasons: 1. The specific development plan is consistent with the purpose of a planned development, as stated in Section 26-301 of the Code of Laws. 2. The specific development plan is consistent with the intent and purpose of the outline development plan. 3. The proposed uses are consistent with those approved by the outline development plan. 4. All responding agencies have indicated they can serve the property with improvements installed at the developer’s expense. 5. The specific development plan is in substantial compliance with the applicable standards set forth in the outline development plan and with the City’s adopted design manuals. With the following conditions: 1. Building permit submittals shall be consistent with the SDP. 2. Right-of-way dedication and easements by separate document shall be recorded prior to recording of the SDP. 3. Public improvements including the undergrounding of overhead utility lines and installation of street lighting shall be required as a condition of building permit approval. Multiple commissioners acknowledged the residents’ traffic concerns while noting that this particular project would likely improve rather than worsen traffic conditions. Several commissioners also commented on the water quality improvements and landscaping benefits of the redevelopment. Motion approved 6-0. OLD BUSINESS No old business was discussed. NEW BUSINESS 1. Upcoming Dates Ms. Easley congratulated Patrick Quinn and Susan Wood for their appointments to City Council. Ms. Easley noted that the next meeting would be January 15, 2026, but currently no cases were scheduled. 2. Project and Development Updates Ms. Easley mentioned that E5X has closed on the Lutheran Legacy Campus property, with pre-application meetings for the next plats and site plans coming soon. Ms. Easley said the city is applying for grants, including a transit-oriented communities infrastructure grant to help Foothills Regional Housing with public improvements at the Ridge Road site. Ms. Easley reminded the commissioners that the Projects and Properties map is updated weekly for current project information. 3. Commissioner Updates In response to a question for Commissioner HOLUB regarding Planning Commission openings, Ms. Easley confirmed that the Clerk's Office will be recruiting for Planning Commission replacements, with appointments expected in February and the March meeting will include election of chair and vice chair. Commissioner HOLUB complimented the city on the restriping improvements on 29th and 26th Avenue west of Sheridan. Commissioner GRAEVE mentioned the progress on the continuous flow on Wadsworth, noting that construction materials have been removed and the project is taking shape. He also inquired about an old non-functioning clock at 38th and Harlan that some neighbors have commented on. Commissioner SPARKS noted that electrical service is being replaced in her neighborhood, resulting in fewer power fluctuations and improved lighting. ADJOURNMENT It was moved by Commissioner HOLUB and seconded by Commissioner GRAEVE to adjourn the meeting at 7:34 p.m. Motion approved 6-0. Kristine Disney, Vice Chair Tammy Odean, Recording Secretary CASE NUMBER: SDP-25-2 DATE: February 19, 2026 PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF REPORT A REQUEST FOR APPROVAL OF A SPECIFIC DEVELOPMENT PLAN (SDP) FOR A DAVE & BUSTER’S ENTERTAINMENT USE ON PROPERTY ZONED PLANNED MIXED-USE DEVELOPMENT (PMUD) AND LOCATED AT 3800 CLEAR CREEK DRIVE. ☒PUBLIC HEARING ☒QUASI-JUDICIAL ☐LEGISLATIVE ☐RECOMMENDATION TO CITY COUNCIL ☒FINAL ACTION BY PLANNING COMMISSION ENTER INTO RECORD: ☒CASE FILE AND PACKET MATERIALS ☒ZONING ORDINANCE ☐COMPREHENSIVE PLAN ☒DIGITAL PRESENTATION JURISDICTION: All notification and posting requirements have been met; therefore, there is jurisdiction to hear this case. ACTION REQUESTED: A request by Dave & Buster’s for approval of a Specific Development Plan (SDP) for a 31,281 square-foot Dave & Buster’s entertainment use on a property zoned Planned Mixed-Use Development (PMUD) and located at 3800 Clear Creek Drive. BACKGROUND: Process Rezoning to a planned development in the City of Wheat Ridge involves a two-step process, and for the subject property, the 2018 approval of the Outline Development Plan (ODP) and Design Pattern Book (DPB) comprised the first step. These two regulatory documents establish the allowed uses and development standards for the property and establish access configurations for vehicles, pedestrians, and bicycles. While rare in Wheat Ridge, a design pattern book is common for developments of this size, for which formatting flexibility including photos and graphics are necessary to explain substantive development standards. An ODP amendment was recently Planning Commission Staff Report – Dave & Buster’s at Clear Creek Crossing SDP February 19, 2026 Page 2 approved, which included changes to standards in this planning area. Links to the recently updated ODP and DPB documents can be found at the following link: https://wheatridgespeaks.org/items/1382. The second step for development in a Planned Mixed-Use Development (PMUD) requires approval of Specific Development Plans (SDP) for each building, lot, or phase. Several SDPs have already been approved at Clear Creek Crossing, including a Bank of America, the Lookout restaurant corridor, Bonfire Burritos, Primrose School, Home2 Suites hotel, Outlook apartments (Phases I and II), Intermountain Health Lutheran hospital campus, Hampton Inn hotel, Life Time Fitness Facility, Foothills Credit Union, Maverik (previously Kum & Go) gas station, and Dutch Brothers coffee shop. Existing Conditions The site is currently vacant and abuts I-70 on the east side, Clear Creek Drive on the west, and future Crossing Drive on the northwest (Exhibit 1, Location Map). It is platted as Lot 5, Block 2, Clear Creek Crossing Retail Replat A, which is being administratively replatted as two lots, resulting in the subject site measuring 199,204 square feet (4.57 acres) in size. An SDP was recently approved for a Bank of America to the northeast of the subject site, and an SDP is under review for a Birdcall restaurant to the northwest. Also to the northwest, Crossing Drive infrastructure plans were recently approved to create an enhanced roadway and pedestrian corridor or ‘paseo’ connecting from 40th Avenue to Clear Creek Drive, as well as a private drive on the north side to serve the proposed development and adjacent users, all of which are currently under construction. A Home2 hotel is currently under construction just west of Crossing Drive at the northeast corner of 40th Avenue and Clear Creek Drive. The replatting will result in one remaining vacant site within Block 2, south of the subject site, reserved for a restaurant or retail user. The site and adjacent development are zoned Planned Mixed-Use Development (PMUD). See Exhibits 2 and 3, Zoning Map and Surrounding Uses. ANALYSIS OF REQUEST: The site is located in Planning Area 3 (PA 3) of the PMUD which is also called the Vineyard District denoting this area as a commercial subdistrict in the development (Exhibit 4, Design Pattern Book Excerpts). Retail and complementary commercial uses, and entertainment uses (a.k.a. commercial recreational facilities) are permitted in this area. Key components of the site design are described below. The site data table on the SDP cover sheet confirms the SDP complies with the development standards provided by the ODP (Exhibit 5, Specific Development Plan). Planning Commission Staff Report – Dave & Buster’s at Clear Creek Crossing SDP February 19, 2026 Page 3 Site Design and Internal Circulation The vacant, 4.57-acre site is proposed to be developed with a Dave & Buster’s entertainment use that is approximately 31,281 square feet in size and 37 feet tall with the main entry of the building facing Clear Creek Drive. Two points of vehicular access are provided from the north and south private drives that stem from Crossing Drive and Clear Creek Drive. Crossing Drive will feed into signalized intersections and will extend southwest across Clear Creek Drive to connect to the Lookout restaurant corridor currently under construction. Pedestrian connections are proposed to the north, west, and south to tie into surrounding streets and planning areas. Parking The SDP reflects 284 proposed parking spaces, including seven accessible spaces and 87 EV spaces, plus 14 bike parking spaces. The building is tucked along the east side of the site adjacent to I-70, with parking situated primarily to the west and south and screened from adjacent streets by landscaping. A service drive loops behind the building on the east side and provides additional parking for employees. The bike racks are located near the main building entrance on the northwest side of the building, and along the employee entry on the south side. Entertainment uses are required to provide one parking space per 100 square feet of public-facing floor area. The amount of parking provided complies with the Design Pattern Book for the use and size of the building. Building Orientation The Design Pattern Book (DPB) establishes setback and building orientation requirements specific to each development district within Clear Creek Crossing. For PA 3 within the Vineyard District, there is a build-to requirement along Clear Creek Drive where either 50-percent of the buildings along the street or a landscape wall must be located within zero to 50-feet of the property line. The applicant has elected to provide an enhanced landscape wall with plantings along Clear Creek Drive to maximize parking. The proposed building orientation will result in high visibility from the highway, easy access into the site via Crossing Drive connecting to the two signalized intersections nearby, and enhanced pedestrian connections to surrounding uses. Dave & Buster’s complies with setback and build-to standards of the proposed ODP and DPB. Architecture The architectural style is driven by the Clear Creek Crossing Design Pattern Book and Vision Book which call for a modern agrarian aesthetic that blends traditional agrarian forms and materials with a modern feel. It also requires strong attention be paid to the Planning Commission Staff Report – Dave & Buster’s at Clear Creek Crossing SDP February 19, 2026 Page 4 pedestrian realm. The applicant has evolved the building design based on feedback from staff over the past six months resulting in building form, massing, and materials that are consistent with the vision of Clear Creek Crossing and surrounding development. The building is single-story and approximately 37 feet tall, and architecture is comprised of primarily stone, metal, fiber cement, and glazing (windows). The materials carry over to all sides of the building resulting in four-sided architecture. The building contains stone base elements with a glass storefront and metal awnings placed at varying heights that accentuate the base and enhance the pedestrian realm. It incorporates corner identifying features that create visual interest, along with metal and wood features that emulate the look and feel of raw materials and tie into the modern agrarian theme. The nature of the business inherently restricts the amount of natural light that can be introduced into the interior space, so the applicant had to be creative in the design of the exterior to include sufficient glazing that acts as transparency and meets requirements of the DPB. Overall façade transparency on the street-facing façades meets the intent of the Design Pattern Book. The east and south elevations incorporate similar enhancements to improve the view from the highway and southern drive, even though these are technically back of house areas. An analysis of proposed architecture and compliance with standards of the Design Pattern Book can be referenced on the elevation sheets nine and ten in the SDP (Exhibit 5, Specific Development Plan), and colored architectural renderings can be found in Exhibit 6. Landscaping, Open Space, and Amenities The project meets the minimum requirement for 20-percent of the gross lot size to be landscaped by utilizing perimeter landscaping, parking lot landscaping islands, streetscape trees, as well as a plaza and planting beds near the building with a variety of trees, shrubs, ornamental grasses and perennials. Low retaining walls will be installed along the I-70 frontage to avoid steep slopes and enhance the view and access from the street. Enhancements to the private drive, being constructed by the master developer, are proposed along the north side of the site, to include detached sidewalk and landscaping. The project is providing more plantings than required. Due to utility conflicts primarily along the major roadways, there were limited areas where trees could be planted so shrub substitutions were utilized where necessary. The Design Pattern Book includes plaza requirements for PA 3, with a minimum of 5,000 sq. ft. of plaza required in this subdistrict. Home2 fulfilled this requirement, however, Dave & Buster’s has elected to add an entry plaza to further accentuate the space in a location supported by the DPB which has been designed to complement other plaza spaces through the development. Planning Commission Staff Report – Dave & Buster’s at Clear Creek Crossing SDP February 19, 2026 Page 5 Grading, Utilities, Drainage, and Traffic This SDP complies with all grading, utilities, drainage, and traffic plans for the overall Clear Creek Crossing development. Sanitary sewer and water service will be provided by Applewood Sanitation District and Consolidated Mutual Water Company, respectively. All internal site utilities will be privately owned and maintained by Longs Peak Metro District and will be placed in utility easements. The utilities are generally located beneath the streets and drive aisles. SDP CRITERIA Staff have provided an analysis of the zone change criteria outlined in Section 26-305.D. The Planning Commission shall base its recommendation on consideration of the extent to which the following criteria have been met: 1. The proposed specific development plan is consistent with the purpose of a planned development as stated in section 26-301 of this article. The purpose of utilizing planned development zoning is to provide flexibility while accommodating well-designed, innovative developments that demonstrate efficient use of land and may not be feasible under a standard zone district. The SDP achieves these goals and proposes a high-quality building product in close proximity to the interstate, residential, and commercial facilities, supporting the mixed-use and interstate-oriented vision for the area. The site and building were designed to reinforce the character of Clear Creek Crossing as established in the Design Pattern Book. Staff conclude this criterion has been met. 2. The proposed specific development plan is consistent with the design intent or purpose of the approved outline development plan. The SDP is consistent with the intent and character statements of the outline development plan. The site incorporates quality landscaping and pedestrian connections and follows architectural guidelines to fit the modern agrarian theme of Clear Creek Crossing. Staff conclude this criterion has been met. 3. The proposed uses indicated in the specific development plan are consistent with the uses approved by the outline development plan. The SDP is consistent with the use standards of the outline development plan. Entertainment uses are permitted uses in PA 3 or the Vineyard District of Clear Creek Planning Commission Staff Report – Dave & Buster’s at Clear Creek Crossing SDP February 19, 2026 Page 6 Crossing which includes the subject site. The use is complementary to other uses in the development and will help to create sense of place for the community. Staff conclude this criterion has been met. 4. The site is appropriately designed and is consistent with the development guidelines established in the outline development plan. The site and buildings were designed to adhere with development standards for the Vineyard District. This includes the setback and building placement requirements applicable to PA 3, landscaping coverage, vehicle and bicycle parking, and pedestrian connections. It integrates with the existing and planned development sites to the north, west, and south, and takes into consideration vehicular and pedestrian circulation. Staff conclude this criterion has been met. 5. Adequate infrastructure/facilities are available to serve the subject property, or the applicant will upgrade and provide such where they do not exist or are under capacity. All responding agencies have indicated they can serve the property with improvements installed at the developers’ expense. All required infrastructure and services are provided for within this SDP. Some regional infrastructure updates are being coordinated separately by the master developer. Staff conclude this criterion has been met. 6. The proposed specific development plan is in substantial compliance with the applicable standards set forth in the Architectural and Site Design Manual, Streetscape Design Manual, and other applicable design standards. As described above, the SDP is in compliance with the Clear Creek Crossing amended ODP, and Design Pattern Book, which addresses architectural, site, and streetscape design. Staff conclude this criterion has been met. Staff conclude that the criteria used to evaluate the SDP support the request. PUBLIC INPUT: Public noticing is required prior to public hearings. If any comments are provided prior to the Planning Commission public hearing on February 19, they will be entered into the record and distributed to Commissioners at the public hearing.

IF SEED IS INSTALLED OUTSIDE OF THIS WINDOW, CONTRACTOR TO RE-SEED IN THE FALL AFTER SEPTEMBER 15. NATIVE SEED SHALL NOT BE INSTALLED DIRECTLY ON FROZEN GROUND OR HARDENED ICE, BUT MAY BE INSTALLED IF SNOW IS PRESENT PROVIDED THAT THE UNDERLYING GROUND TEMPERATURE IS STILL ABOVE FREEZING IN THE AREA OF APPLICATION. 2.TO IMPROVE NATIVE ESTABLISHMENT, WEEDS IN AREAS THAT WILL NOT BE REGRADED SHOULD BE CONTROLLED DURING THE GROWING SEASON PRIOR TO CONSTRUCTION WITH LOPPING, PULLING, BAGGING, AND DISPOSING OF SEED HEADS. SPOT HERBICIDE TREATMENT MAY BE UTILIZED ONLY AS NECESSARY IF OTHER METHODS ARE NOT SUCCESSFUL AND SHALL BE BE APPLIED IN SUCH A MANNER AS TO MINIMIZE AND/OR AVOID, TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT POSSIBLE, DRIFT OR TRANSPORT OF CHEMICALS AWAY FROM TARGET PLANTS. IN ADDITION, ALL HERBICIDES SHALL BE APPLIED IN ACCORDANCE WITH ALL STATE AND FEDERAL REGULATIONS, AND IN STRICT ACCORDANCE WITH THEIR RESPECTIVE MANUFACTURER'S SPECIFICATIONS AND INSTRUCTIONS. 3.CONTRACTOR SHALL TEST EXISTING SOIL AND AMEND AS NECESSARY IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE GUIDELINES BELOW: 3.1.SOIL MIXTURE SHALL CONSIST OF TWO PARTS OF TOPSOIL AND ONE PART SAND, AS DESCRIBED BELOW. CONTRACTOR TO SUBMIT SAMPLES AND PH TESTING RESULTS OF SOIL MIXTURE FOR OWNER'S REPRESENTATIVE APPROVAL PRIOR TO SEED INSTALLATION OPERATIONS COMMENCE. 3.2.TOPSOIL FOR USE IN PREPARING SOIL MIXTURE FOR TOPSOIL REPLACEMENT AND SEEDING AREA COVERAGE SHALL BE FERTILE, FRIABLE, AND OF A LOAMY CHARACTER; REASONABLY FREE OF SUBSOIL, CLAY LUMPS, BRUSH, WEEDS AND OTHER LITTER; FREE OF ROOTS, STUMPS, STONES LARGER THAN 2" IN ANY DIRECTION, AND OTHER EXTRANEOUS OR TOXIC MATTER HARMFUL TO PLANT GROWTH. IT SHALL CONTAIN THREE (3) TO FIVE (5) PERCENT DECOMPOSED ORGANIC MATTER, HAVE A PH BETWEEN 5.5 AND 8.0, AND SOLUBLE SALTS LESS THAN 3.0 MMHOS/CM. SUBMIT SOIL SAMPLE AND PH TESTING RESULTS FOR APPROVAL. 4.ALL NATIVE SEED AREAS SHALL HAVE SOIL TILLED TO A DEPTH OF 8-INCHES, PRIOR TO AND WITHIN TWO-WEEKS OF SEEDING. THIS SHALL BE CONDUCTED TO ELIMINATE COMPACTED SOILS AND REMOVE EXISTING VEGETATION. 5.DRILL SEEDING IS THE PREFERRED METHOD OF APPLICATION. CONTRACTOR SHALL INSTALL NATIVE SEED MIXES VIA DRILL SEEDING AT THE RATES DESCRIBED IN THE PLANT SCHEDULE. IF THE SLOPE IS GREATER THAN 10% BROADCAST SEED APPLICATION TO BE USED. 6.WHERE BROADCAST SEEDING IS DETERMINED TO BE THE ONLY FEASIBLE SEEDING METHOD THE FOLLOWING STIPULATIONS SHALL APPLY: 6.1.SEED APPLICATION RATE (PLS/AC) SHALL BE TRIPLE (3X) THAT WHICH IS SPECIFIED FOR DRILL SEEDING. SEE NATIVE SEED MIX SPECIFICATION CHART. 6.2.BROADCAST SEEDED SITES WILL BE RAKED OR HARROWED BEFORE SEEDING TO BREAK UP THE SURFACE AND AFTER TO ALLOW SEEDS TO FALL INTO CREVICES. 6.3.RAKING OR OTHER POST-SEEDING TREATMENT TO LIGHTLY COVER SEED WILL ALSO BE COMPLETED TO ENHANCE GERMINATION LIKELIHOOD, PROVIDE EVEN DISTRIBUTION OF SEED, AND REDUCE LOSSES TO GRANIVORES. 6.4.THE SEED MATERIAL MAY BE BROADCAST BY HAND OR USING A SEED SPREADER. 7.SEEDING SHALL NOT BE ATTEMPTED ON WINDY DAYS AS THIS COULD LEAD TO PATCHY COVERAGE. 8.CHEMICAL METHODS OF WEED CONTROL ARE PROHIBITED DURING THE FIRST GROWING SEASON. CARE SHOULD BE TAKEN TO ELIMINATE WEEDS DURING TILLING PRIOR TO INSTALLATION. SELECTIVE MANUAL OR MECHANICAL WEED CONTROL/REMOVAL SHALL BE PROVIDED DURING THE FIRST YEAR ESTABLISHMENT PERIOD. 9.IMMEDIATELY AFTER SEEDING ACTIVITIES HAVE BEEN COMPLETED, POST SEEDING STABILIZATION ACTIVITIES SHALL OCCUR. THESE ACTIVITIES SHALL CREATE NEAR-COMPLETE COVERAGE OF THE SEEDED AREA AND BE SUFFICIENTLY DURABLE TO PERSIST UNTIL PLANTED SEEDS HAVE GERMINATED. 9.1.CRIMPED HAY 9.1.1.CERTIFIED WEED-FREE AND, IF POSSIBLE, NATIVE GRAMINOID SPECIES SHALL BE REQUIRED. 9.1.2.DUE TO THE HIGH PROBABILITY OF INCLUSION OF PROBLEMATIC AND/OR INVASIVE SPECIES, THE USE OF STRAW MULCH SHALL BE PROHIBITED. 9.1.3.WHERE APPLIED, HAY MULCH SHALL BE “CRIMPED” INTO THE SOIL SURFACE THROUGH THE USE OF MODIFIED DISK PLOWS. THIS PROCESS SHALL BE FOLLOWED BY THE APPLICATION OF AN ORGANIC TACKIFIER, BOTH TO THE HAY MULCH ITSELF AS WELL AS THE SOIL IT HAS BEEN CRIMPED INTO. 9.1.4.WHERE USED, HAY SHALL BE APPLIED AT A RATE OF 3,500LBS PER ACRE TO ENSURE OPTIMAL COVERAGE AND EFFECTIVENESS. B.NATIVE LAWN MIX MAINTENANCE 1.PRIOR TO FULL ESTABLISHMENT (A MINIMUM OF THE FIRST TWO [2] YEARS POST SEEDING ACTIVITIES) ALL AREAS WITH NATIVE SEED MIX SHALL BE MOWED ONCE IN THE LATE SUMMER OR DURING FALL (AUGUST TO OCTOBER) TO ALLOW FOR NATIVE SEED MIX TO REPRODUCE AND DISPERSE ITS SEED. NATIVE SEED MIX SHALL NOT RECEIVE REGULAR MOWING THROUGHOUT THE REMAINDER OF THE GROWING SEASON. 2.ONCE ESTABLISHED (TWO [2] YEARS AFTER INSTALLATION MINIMUM), ALL AREAS WITH NATIVE SEED MIX SHALL BE MOWED ONCE PRIOR TO SPRING GREENING UP (FEBRUARY TO MARCH). A SECOND MOWING SHALL BE SCHEDULED AFTER INITIAL SPRING GROWTH AND GREENING UP (LATE JUNE TO EARLY JULY). NATIVE SEED MIX SHALL NOT RECEIVE REGULAR MOWING THROUGHOUT THE REMAINDER OF THE GROWING SEASON. MOW DECK HEIGHT SHALL BE SET TO 4" MINIMUM. FOR THE FIRST GROWING SEASON, IT SHALL ONLY BE MOWED ONE TIME. 3.ALL AREAS WITH NATIVE SEED MIX SHALL MAINTAIN A REGULAR WATERING SCHEDULE UNTIL FULL ESTABLISHMENT HAS BEEN ACHIEVED (MINIMUM OF TWO [2] YEARS). PROVIDE APPROXIMATELY 3 4" TO 1" OF PRECIPITATION EVERY 7 TO 10 DAYS. 4.APPLY 1 2 LB. OF NITROGEN PER 1000 SQ. FT. ANNUALLY IN MID-JUNE. 5.NATIVE SEED WEED MAINTENANCE 5.1.LOP, PULL AND BAG SEEDHEADS OF WEEDS IN SPRING AND SUMMER BEFORE THEY DISPERSE THE GROUND. 5.2.WHEN HAVING PROBLEMS WITH WEEDS, MOW THREE TIMES (ONCE EACH IN THE SPRING, ONCE IN SUMMER SUMMER, AND ONCE IN LATE FALL), BAG ALL CLIPPINGS AND DISPOSE OF AT AN APPROVED OFF-SITE FACILITY TO PREVENT WEEDS FROM REPRODUCING ON SITE. 5.3.HERBICIDES TO BE USED ONLY AS NECESSARY WHEN OTHER MAINTENANCE OPTIONS ARE NOT SUCCESSFUL. "ROUNDUP", OR OTHER HERBICIDE APPROVED FOR USE BY THE OWNER, SHOULD BE APPLIED FOR WEED CONTROL BY QUALIFIED PERSONNEL TO ALL NATIVE SEEDING AREAS IN SPOT APPLICATIONS PER MANUFACTURER'S RECOMMENDATIONS. SPOT APPLICATIONS OF WEEDS SHOULD BE CONDUCTED IN SPRING AND EARLY SUMMER. C.NATIVE SEED IRRIGATION SCHEDULING 1.SEEDING TO WEEK 4 (1ST MONTH) 1.1.3-4 DAILY IRRIGATION CYCLES. APPLY 0.1" OF WATER PER CYCLE (NOT TO BE CONFUSED WITH IRRIGATING THE TOP 0.1" OF THE SOIL). 1.2.MONITOR AND ADJUST RUN TIMES WITH THE GOAL OF KEEPING MOISTURE IN THE TOP 1" OF THE SOIL. HOT AND/OR WINDY WEATHER WILL REQUIRE LONGER RUN TIMES. 1.3.WATCH FOR SEEDLINGS. REDUCE IRRIGATION TO ONCE A DAY WHEN THE MAJORITY OF THE SEEDED AREA HAS GERMINATED 1.4.CONSIDER AND ADJUST TO ALL EXTERNAL FACTORS. BARE SOIL DRYS OUT FASTER AND NEEDS MORE FREQUENT IRRIGATION COMPARED TO HYDROSEEDING OR SEED APPLIED IN DEAD SOD (COOL-SEASON TO NATIVE SEED CONVERSION) 2.WEEKS 5-8 (2ND MONTH) 2.1.IRRIGATE ONCE A DAY, WITH AN APPLICATION RATE THAT MAINTAINS MOISTURE IN THE TOP 2-3" OF THE SOIL. THE SURFACE SHOULD DRY BETWEEN CYCLES, CRUCIAL FOR MINIMIZING WEED SEED GERMINATION. 2.2.MOVE TO IRRIGATING EVERY OTHER DAY BY WEEK 6, OR EARLIER IF CONDITIONS ALLOW. 2.3.IN AVERAGE CONDITIONS, PROVIDE APPROXIMATELY 3 4" TO 1" OF PRECIPITATION EVERY 7 TO 10 DAYS. 3.WEEKS 9 THROUGH END OF FIRST GROWING SEASON 3.1.GRADUALLY REDUCE FREQUENCY AND INCREASE APPLICATION RATE TO PROMOTE DEEP ROOTS. 3.2.BY THE END OF THE FIRST SEASON, IRRIGATION FREQUENCY SHOULD BE REDUCED TO 2-4 TIMES A MONTH, PROVIDING MOISTURE AT LEAST 6" DEEP. 3.3.NATIVE GRASSES WILL COMPETE BEST AGAINST WEEDS WHEN PAIRED WITH INFREQUENT, DEEP IRRIGATION SCHEDULING. 4.YEAR 2 4.1.IRRIGATE 2-4 TIMES A MONTH DURING THE SUMMER, WITH CAREFUL CONSIDERATION FOR WHEN NATURAL PRECIPITATION CAN REPLACE IRRIGATION CYCLES. 4.2.IN THE AVERAGE YEAR, NATIVE GRASSES SHOULD NOT NEED SPRING IRRIGATION SCHEDULING. EARLY SEASON WEED SPECIES WILL BENEFIT MORE FROM IRRIGATION THAN THE NATIVE GRASSES WHEN THE SOIL TEMPERATURES ARE STILL RELATIVELY LOW. 5.YEAR 3 5.1.WHILE NATIVE GRASSES CONTINUE TO ESTABLISH IN YEAR 3, IRRIGATION SHOULD ONLY BE APPLIED AS-NEEDED. 5.2.NATIVE GRASSES WILL BENEFIT FROM INFREQUENT, DEEP-ROOT WATERING DURING THE WARMER MONTHS, ESPECIALLY DURING DROUGHT.

Notice for this public hearing was provided pursuant to the Code of Laws. BACKGROUND: The City Council was presented with the background on this ordinance at the February 2, 2026 study session. The ordinance was prepared by the Planning Division. Over the past few years, City Council has approved several zoning code amendments related to housing and ADUs to achieve local policy goals and to comply with state law. The ADU regulations were most recently updated in May 2025 to better align with state requirements, including removing owner occupancy requirements and revising ADU size restrictions. In 2022, Colorado voters enacted Proposition 123 creating a statewide affordable housing fund, and in September 2023 Council approved a resolution committing to Planning Commission Staff Report – Housing Supportive Code Amendments February 19, 2026 Page 2 increasing the city’s housing supply. This commitment made the city and all affordable housing projects within Wheat Ridge eligible for Prop 123 funds. As a follow-up to the Prop 123 commitment, Council approved a resolution of support in October 2025 to establish an expedited review policy for qualifying affordable housing projects. The resolution allowed staff to prepare internal policies and procedures approved by the Community Development Director and formally approved by the Department of Local Affairs (DOLA). Over the years, the state legislature has passed a series of state housing laws and funding opportunities to support affordable housing, strategic growth, and housing near transit. In August 2025, Governor Polis signed Executive Order (EO) 2025-011 directing the prioritization of funding for local governments based on a local government’s compliance with the state housing laws. State agencies such as the Department of Local Affairs (DOLA) and the Colorado Energy Office (CEO) use compliance determinations when scoring or awarding competitive funding programs. Jurisdictions that are not compliant, or not demonstrating good-faith progress toward compliance, risk being deprioritized or deemed ineligible for these funds. As a result, failure to update Wheat Ridge’s ADU regulations to meet state requirements could materially affect the City’s competitiveness for state funding. Wheat Ridge has applied to multiple state grant programs, including DOLA’s Transit- Oriented Communities Infrastructure (TOCI) grant and the Colorado Energy Office’s Local Accelerator Grant Program, which together could bring approximately $6–$11 million in funding to the city. These funds are critical to supporting public infrastructure investments and soft costs that advance affordable housing, ADU fee waivers, and other development fee waivers near transit. Moving forward with these code amendments ensures Wheat Ridge remains eligible for these funding opportunities, demonstrates compliance with state law and the Executive Order, and protects the city’s ability to leverage significant external resources to advance housing affordability and strategic growth objectives. The staff report is divided into two sections: 1) Accessory Dwelling Units and 2) Administrative Site Plan Review. Part 1: Accessory Dwelling Units The city began regulating ADUs in 2022, and those regulations are contained within Section 26-646 and the development standards tables in Article II of Chapter 26. In May 2025, Council approved three code amendments to comply with HB24-1152, specifically removing owner occupancy requirements, adjusting the allowable size of ADUs, and allowing ADUs retroactively in Planned Developments. Planning Commission Staff Report – Housing Supportive Code Amendments February 19, 2026 Page 3 In June 2025, the city submitted an ADU compliance report to DOLA, demonstrating the city’s position that its ADU regulations were compliant with state law. On September 26, 2025, DOLA determined that the city was not fully in compliance with state law and required one additional minor amendment to achieve full compliance. As all other provisions were in compliance with the state law and the changes were perceived to be minor, DOLA gave the city a “Compliance-In-Progress” status and some time to make the changes in order to achieve a Compliant status. This required amendment relates to the rear setbacks for attached ADUs in three zone districts: Residential-One A (R-1A), Agricultural-One (A-1), and Agricultural-Two (A-2). DOLA’s interpretation of the state law is that attached and detached ADUs in each zone district need to have the same setback, or five (5) feet, whichever is greater. These three zone districts had differing setback requirements for attached and detached ADUs, where the detached setback was lesser; therefore, the setback for attached ADUs needed to be decreased to five (5) feet (or a slightly modified approach for R-1A since rear setbacks for detached are based on building heights, so attached can match). Proposed ADU Amendment To achieve compliance, a footnote will need to be added to the rear setback requirement in the development standards charts in R-1A, A-1, and A-2 to state: “Portions of single detached dwellings containing an attached accessory dwelling unit (ADU) as defined in Section 26-123 are permitted to have a five (5) foot setback.” This will ensure that only portions of the primary structure containing the ADU can have a 5- foot setback, not the entire house. For structures in R-1A that are over 10 feet tall, a 10- foot setback is permitted. Staff have no concerns about the impact of this code amendment. It is a minor change and will impact a very small number of parcels in the city; as shown in the table below, the A-1, A-2 and R-1A zone districts comprise less than 12% of all residential land by area and by parcel count. Attached ADUs are also much less common than detached ADUs, which are simpler to construct from a building code perspective. The result will be that both attached and detached ADUs may be built within five feet of the rear property line. Table 1.

In fall 2025, Council approved a resolution of support authorizing staff to establish an expedited review policy consistent with state requirements. Since adopting the internal policy, staff conducted a review of the zoning code and identified one minor code amendment necessary to ensure that all site plans for qualifying affordable projects can be reviewed within the expedited timelines and administrative approval process. The city currently reviews site plans under three application names: (1) Site Plans, (2) Specific Development Plans (SDPs), and (3) Planned Building Groups (PBGs). Each is comprised of the same content (site plan, landscape plan, and architecture), but the underlying zoning determines which application type is utilized. In all three cases, the appropriate zoning must already be in place, such that the proposed development is already a permitted use or “use by right.” Table 2 summarizes the differences: Table 2. Comparison of Site Plan Types Application Type Where Used When Used Review Authority Site Plan Mixed use and commercial zones After zoning is in place Administrative Specific Development Plan (SDP) Planned development zones After zoning (Outline Development Plan) is in place Planning Commission Planned Building Group (PBG) Residential and ag zones with multiple buildings on a single parcel After zoning is in place Admin or Planning Commission depending on the zone and number of buildings Proposed Site Plan Review Amendment State law requires that site plan review (under any name) for qualifying affordable housing projects be an administrative approval, meaning no public hearings are required. This ensures that once a use is permitted by zoning, project approval focuses on objective code compliance rather than discretionary review, thereby providing predictability and timeliness for affordable housing delivery. Planning Commission Staff Report – Housing Supportive Code Amendments February 19, 2026 Page 5 While most affordable housing projects will be located in mixed use zones based on their locations and densities, it is possible that an SDP or PBG may be necessary. A few code changes will be required to ensure that SDPs and PBGs can be expedited and approved administratively for qualifying projects: • Define “qualifying affordable housing project” to match DOLA’s definition, which includes projects with 50% or more affordable units defined as 60% of Area Median Income (AMI) for rentals or 100% AMI for ownership units • Revise PD regulations to exempt SDPs containing qualifying affordable housing projects from the planning commission hearing requirement • Revise PBG regulations to remove the requirement for planning commission approval on sites with more than four buildings, if the PBG is a qualifying affordable housing project • Update review process charts (§26-106) accordingly Staff have no concerns about the impact of this code amendment. Site plan review is already an administrative review for most projects in the city. An affordable housing project within a PD or PBG will be rare, and the code retains public hearings for the zone change process. RECOMMENDED MOTION: “I move to recommend approval of the proposed ordinance amending Chapter 26 of the Wheat Ridge Code of Laws supporting compliance with state legislation regarding housing supportive code amendments to remain eligible for state funding opportunities.” REPORT PREPARED/REVIEWED BY: Scott Cutler, Senior Planner Shannon Terrell, Senior Housing Planner Jana Easley, Planning Manager Lauren Mikulak, Community Development Director EXHIBITS: 1.

The draft proposed ordinance is attached. Notice for this public hearing was provided pursuant to the Code of Laws. Pursuant to code Section 26-122, the Planning Commission shall hear and make a recommendation to City Council on all changes pertaining to Chapter 26. PRIOR ACTION: Staff reviewed the proposed changes with City Council during study sessions held on June 2, 2025, and September 15, 2025. Per Council direction, staff have prepared the following ordinance amending Chapter 26 which, upon receiving a recommendation from the Planning Commission, will be presented to the City Council alongside an ordinance amending Chapter 4, Animals. BACKGROUND: City Council has requested updates to several animal-related provisions in the Municipal Code. Two of those provisions affect the Zoning Code; one related to swine and one related to roosters. Planning Commission Staff Report – Chapter 26 Code Updates Regarding the Keeping of Small Animals February 19, 2026 Page 2 Swine in the City of Wheat Ridge There are two code provisions that relate to the keeping of swine in Wheat Ridge. Section 26-204 of the Municipal Code (zone district use schedule) currently permits the keeping of swine on properties zoned Agricultural-Two (A-2) as part of a primary general farming use. In such cases, an A-2 property would need to be at least one (1) acre in size; A-2 zoning applies to a limited number of properties scattered throughout the City. Section 4-14 of the code (exotic or wild animals) classifies and permits swine as domestic livestock animals. Despite this allowance, the keeping of swine may create odor, sanitation, and other nuisance issues that can be incompatible with the character of a modern suburban community. In response to Council direction, staff have prepared the attached ordinance to amend Chapter 26 to prohibit the keeping of swine within the City of Wheat Ridge, while retaining the ability for individuals to request special permission to keep potbellied pigs as pets through the Chief’s exemption process. Roosters in the City of Wheat Ridge The Municipal Code does not currently mention the word “rooster” which has created confusion in the past. Section 26-606 (small animals and poultry) permits “poultry” and Section 4-14 (exotic or wild animals) permits certain domesticated animals including “farm birds (ducks, geese, swans, poultry).” Neither code section differentiates between roosters (male) and hens (female); both are poultry and as such have been deemed to be permitted. Where poultry are kept, roosters serve a variety of purposes, including protecting hens, maintaining flock order, fertilizing eggs for breeding, serving as natural alarm clocks, alerting owners to potential threats, and for cultural or traditional reasons. While they provide certain benefits for urban farming, roosters can also create nuisances for neighboring properties due to their tendency to crow. Unlike neighboring municipalities such as Lakewood, Golden, Arvada, Denver, and Edgewater, roosters are currently permitted in Wheat Ridge. The City receives occasional complaints, most often when roosters violate the noise ordinance or other provisions of the Municipal Code. Crowing is regulated in the same manner as barking dogs: occasional noise is permissible, but frequent, loud, or disruptive crowing constitutes a violation. In such cases, owners are typically given the opportunity to correct the issue—often through measures such as soundproofed coops or the use of crow collars—before citations are issued and the matter proceeds to municipal court. Although staff and Community Services Officers are experienced in addressing rooster- related concerns, the city has received feedback that the Municipal Code’s language Planning Commission Staff Report – Chapter 26 Code Updates Regarding the Keeping of Small Animals February 19, 2026 Page 3 regarding roosters lacks clarity. To address these concerns and improve compliance and enforcement, Council has directed staff to allow up to one (1) rooster per property in residential and agricultural zones under one acre in size, and up to three (3) roosters per property in residential and agricultural zones one acre or larger. The attached ordinance implements this direction. RECOMMENDED MOTION: “I move to recommend approval of the proposed ordinance amending Chapter 26 of the Wheat Ridge Code of Laws concerning the keeping of small animals and making conforming amendments therewith.” REPORT PREPARED/REVIEWED BY: Cole Haselip, Senior Management Analyst Jana Easley, Planning Manager Lauren Mikulak, Community Development Director ATTACHMENTS: 1. Draft Ordinance ATTACHMENT 1 – DRAFT ORDINANCE CITY OF WHEAT RIDGE, COLORADO INTRODUCED BY COUNCIL MEMBER ___________ COUNCIL BILL NO. _______ ORDINANCE NO. _________ Series 2026 TITLE: AN ORDINANCE AMENDING THE WHEAT RIDGE MUNICIPAL CODE TO IMPOSE ZONING LIMITATIONS ON THE KEEPING OF SMALL ANIMALS WHEREAS, the City of Wheat Ridge (the “City”) is a home rule municipality having all powers conferred by Article XX of the Colorado Constitution; and WHEREAS, pursuant to its home rule authority and C.R.S. § 31-23-101, the City, acting through its City Council (the “Council”), is authorized to adopt ordinances for the protection of the public health, safety or welfare; and WHEREAS, in the exercise of this authority the Council previously adopted Chapter 26 of the Code of Laws governing land use, zoning, and development; and WHEREAS, following analysis and study of the impacts of the keeping of swine and roosters in the City, the Council finds it necessary to address the keeping of these animals. NOW THEREFORE BE IT ORDAINED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF WHEAT RIDGE, COLORADO: Section 1. Section 26-204 (zone district use schedule) of the Code is amended by replacing the note in the “Table of Uses - Agricultural and Public Facilities” as follows: Uses Notes A-1 A-2 PF […] General farming and raising or keeping of stock, bee keeping, poultry or small animals such as rabbits or chinchillas PROHIBITED in A-1: The raising or keeping of swine INCLUDED in A-2: The keeping of swine and/or potbellied pigs, Sus Scrofa Vittatus, except such animals shall not be fed garbage PROHIBITED IN ALL DISTRICTS: THE RAISING OR KEEPING OF SWINE, WITH THE EXCEPTION OF POTBELLIED PIGS, UNDER P P SECTIONS 26-606 AND 4-14.
