REQUEST FOR COUNCIL ACTION
RESOLUTION: 2009-10
SUBJECT: 2009 Edgewood Neighborhood Plan -- Amendment to the Lakewood Comprehensive Plan
ADDRESS: Sheridan Boulevard to Wadsworth Boulevard and West Colfax Avenue to the northern City boundary
RECOMMENDATION: To approve the 2009 Edgewood Neighborhood Plan as an amendment to the Lakewood Comprehensive Plan
FUNDING SOURCE: N/A
SUMMARY AND BACKGROUND OF SUBJECT MATTER: The 2009 Edgewood Neighborhood Plan was prepared as part of the City’s Neighborhood Planning Program. This is the tenth plan to be completed as part of the program. The Plan covers the area bounded by Sheridan Boulevard to Wadsworth Boulevard and West Colfax Avenue to the northern City boundary. The Plan was developed through a concerted effort of area citizens and City staff over the past 14 months. Data and information were obtained from a neighborhood survey and neighborhood meetings. Outreach was undertaken through newsletters and the City of Lakewood’s webpage. City staff worked with Edgewood neighborhood residents on the development of the Plan. Through this effort, Edgewood neighborhood residents identified key issues of concern to the neighborhood. These issues were incorporated into the Plan and goals and action steps were developed to address the issues. The basic premise of the Plan is to encourage development and redevelopment of land in the neighborhood in a way that respects the area’s established residential character and enhances neighborhood vitality, encourage commercial and residential property upkeep, and to promote a safe and vibrant community. Citizens identified six key issue areas during the planning process: transportation and public works, public safety, land-use and property maintenance, parks and cultural resources, economic development and community participation.
