Public Comment
There are no public hearings tonight, so if you want to contribute any comments you must do it by email (PublicComment@cityofgolden.net) or at the beginning of the meeting.

Consent Matters

Affordable Housing Projects in the Central Neighborhood
  • Adopt the Jefferson County Affordable Housing Blueprint
    This document describes how the various jurisdictions within Jefferson County will partner to build more affordable housing. Their goals are to influence regional, state, and federal policy; maximize land use, housing, and transportation resources to add more housing, and facilitate partnerships among the jurisdictions to build more affordable housing.

    Council received an overview of this plan at their last study session (start at 1 hr - 15 minutes). The presenter described the need to balance local control with regional needs. He remarked that this new framework will give a voice to the people who don't live here but want to.
  • Approve a construction contract for $121,850
    This will improve the sidewalk drainage on Rimrock Drive.

Parfet Estates Drive
  • Approve parking permits for Parfet Estates Drive
    This street is right across Highway 6 from the School of Mines campus. CSM students as well as construction workers from the CSM housing projects have been parking on the street. The meeting memo states that eliminating these non-resident parkers would improve safety for the residents.
  • Approve a contract to replace equipment at Splash
    This contract allows up to $165,823 to replace the boiler on the lap pool at the City's water park.
  • First reading of an Ordinance regarding signage for marijuana stores
    This ordinance clarifies how marijuana stores are allowed to advertise on their own buildings versus how they are allowed to advertise off-site, online, or through direct mail. They will hold a public hearing and vote on this issue at their September 10th meeting.
