The DDA will consider a grant request by Babe's Tea Room. This business is moving into the former Sassafras location on the southeast corner of Washington Avenue and Clear Creek. The meeting memo details $61,811 in eligible expenses, including new awnings and containers for custom floral displays. The maximum allowed grant is $15,000. This business currently has a location in Denver.
The City recently held an open house regarding proposed changes to Jackson street. Most of the attendees were residents, and the Planning Department wants to reach more business owners. The plans call for the streets to be narrowed and most of the on-street parking to be removed. Business owners often want parking for their customers. Planning staff intends to visit a Chamber event this week to extend their reach to businesses.
Golden Jui Jitsu applied for a sign grant for $613.84. Staff approved it.
The CoorsTek/Clayworks project will tentatively begin demotion this week.
