Next one is call up of the floodplain development. Permit at 860
So this was adopted by Council in 2,015. I won't read all of these, but it outlines community priorities around boulders, culture and creative economy.
The project site is impacted by the 100 year flood plane, almost the entirety of the site.
perhaps most importantly, a new home for branch of the Boulder Museum of contemporary art
that outlaw is intended to accommodate future flood improvements and Broadway Street improvements
So those are the policies related to arts and culture.
is the applicant proposing to pay into the inclusionary housing fund
No affordable units are proposed for this development as a substantial portion of the land will be donated for the new museum.
isn't a requirement to demonstrate community benefit outside of the annexation process
would not take care of the applicants inclusionary housing fees for the residential portion
They have the linkage fees and stuff like that
the reason they're not building onsite affordable units is because he's essentially making a multi-million dollar land donation
the linkage fee for commercial property is how we satisfy that requirement
The downtown bemoca doesn't get diluted from this and ultimately shut down?
it is on balance consistent with the policies of of the Multi Valley comprehensive plan
I think that we have to update both, though the Nova plan and the and the comp plan
Once upon a time all these buildings were beige. Now they're full of murals
Obviously, you guys are familiar with the community cultural plan that established novo as an arts district
The Mo. Is an arts nonprofit that was founded by a loop group of local artists in 1,972
it's not because I misled the community and said, yeah, we're going to make this affordable commercial space
i'm happy to chime in on this annexation
how to activate that with contemporary art, with rotating sculptures
we need to do additional work on, you know, having more parking for people with disabilities
they will be small, and they will be shared, and they will be market rate
if you're talking about fixing it to something like inclusionary housing or or mandated low cost
So it sounds like the plan is their market rate. They're small. They're shared
the design of the neighborhood has a like graduated density towards the Mobile Home Park, which will stay Mobile Home Park
It's in the code as if you get extra height. You pay extra linkage fee or you pay extra.
which is, as you know, our city's largest mobile home development
A mobile Home Park was in really tenuous shape
I think the programming on the Bmoca building needs to be refined
we have put a huge amount of effort into promoting cultural activities downtown
building performance with significant carbon footprint reduction in embedded in use carbon
is already reference to the building challenge, which is one of the highest
what our affordable housing objectives are beyond the the in blue funds
It was never, it's never been code, and it's being treated by the apple again
Policy is very brief. It's in the code. and it allows for a lot of flexibility
where applicants and staff treat this old thing as code, and it's not code
that there is a a movement afoot to try to create a historic district around Civic Center Park
Do you want an airport or not, and to decommission an airport is actually quite difficult
as I understand it, the way the conversation is currently designed that conversation will not happen unless the community says decommissioned the airport
support a process that only looks at up to decommissioning and not what comes after
