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.

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.

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

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.

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.

NATIVE SEED MIX SPECIFICATION
NATIVE SEED INSTALLATION AND MAINTENANCE
A.NATIVE SEED ESTABLISHMENT
1.THE DESIRED PERIOD OF APPLICATION OF NATIVE SEED SHOULD BE BETWEEN SEPTEMBER 15
AND MAY 15. 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.

SUPPORTIVE CODE AMENDMENTS TO REMAIN ELIGIBLE FOR STATE FUNDING

☐ZONING ORDINANCE
☐COMPREHENSIVE PLAN
☐DIGITAL PRESENTATION
ACTION REQUESTED:
The item under consideration is to amend Chapter 26 of the Wheat Ridge Code of Laws
to update the review process for qualifying affordable housing projects and to update
Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) setback requirements for some zone districts to ensure
compliance with state regulations.
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.

Part 2: Administrative Site Plan Review
To retain funding eligibility, Proposition 123 requires participating jurisdictions to
implement an expedited review (or fast track) process for qualifying affordable housing
projects. 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:

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.”

ACTION REQUESTED:
The item under consideration is to amend Chapter 26, Zoning and Development, of the
Wheat Ridge Code of Laws to update the small animal requirements for residential
properties. 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.”
