Edgewater City Weekly: June 21, 2019

From the City of Edgewater:

City Clerk: Applications are being accepted for two (2) voluntary position on the Board of Adjustment and Appeals Board. This Board consists of five members, appointed by the Mayor. The appointments are for terms expiring on 5/1/20 and 5/1/22. Please visit www.edgewaterco.com for more information or to find an application.

Community Services Temporary Traffic Calming Corridor: The City of Edgewater has been awarded an Active People Active Places Grant through the Denver Regional Council of Governments and Department of Public Health & Environment to implement a temporary traffic calming corridor on 25th Ave. This temporary street modification will provide new techniques in calming traffic while providing local drivers the ability to test out several street modifications. The corridor has been designed using techniques recommended in the 2019 Traffic Calming Mobility Plan. This project will be a catalyst in improving the way Edgewater looks at streets as places for people, not just moving traffic, while promoting and prioritizing active transportation modes—walking and bicycling. The street modifications are scheduled to be in place by June 26th and kept in place until the end of July between Ames St. and Benton St. on 25th Ave. For more information about these changes please visit www.edgewaterco.com.

25th Ave Traffic Survey: 25th Ave. between Sheridan Blvd. and Benton St. (Corridor) was highlighted as a priority for traffic calming improvements through the 2019 Traffic Calming Mobility Plan. These improvements will provide safer pedestrian and cycle transitions through the corridor. The City of Edgewater currently has a survey that will help understand current issues within the corridor and better implement traffic calming devices. We would greatly appreciate your time and input through this 2-minute survey. Please visit www.edgewaterco.com to find the survey.

Comprehensive Plan Refresh: Be a part of this opportunity to provide input and help co-create the update to Edgewater’s 2013 Comprehensive Plan. The Comprehensive Plan is the City’s “living” document that provides guidance to appointed and elected leaders and staff on planning-related decisions to ensure the City thrives and creates a more sustainable, healthy, inclusive, and livable place for present and future generations. The Edgewater 2020 upcoming workshops will be opportunities to reflect on key takeaways from the initial workshops in May and continue to refine the elements of the plan to best shape the future of the City.
