2023.0.41Scope and Content
Item is a packet containing information and a printed PowerPoint presentation regarding the Broomfield Civic Center, or Town Square, project. The first page contains a summary of the project itself and other financial information and alternatives from a meeting on April 3, 2018. In short, the plan proposes an enlarged Community Park Pond be added near the Mamie Doud Eisenhower Library, plaza and walk areas with outdoor dining, art, and entertainment areas; 50,000 square feet of land for retail and restaurants, an inn, 22 houses, 365 affordable housing units, and the Safeway be repurposed into an area for community and work space. A few focus sessions had occurred beforehand, and Broomfield would be partnering with Civitas in order to carry out this plan.
The included PowerPoint contains:
- a title page.
- a slide titled "Meet the Team," including the names and pictures of the people involved with the development of the project. The names are Dana Crawford with Urban Neighborhoods Real Estate, and Joe Vostrejs, Pat McHenry, and Rod Wagner with City Street Investors.
- a "Project Overview" slide showing the areas that would be renovated.
- three slides explaining that the new town center will be custom-crafted in order to address the community's needs and wants, and that this will be accomplished through a series of focus groups. The focus groups will look at the plan's guiding principles, commercial and social uses, and design principles.
- a slide that delves into the guiding principles, which include prioritizing pedestrians and making sure that the area is identifiable as Broomfield's social center.
- four slides containing charts of what businesses, services, and residential and commercial areas that people would want and use if they were included in the plan.
- 13 slides of picture examples of what Broomfield's town center could look like. The categories include public gathering and pedestrian friendly places, public places to linger and eat, creative use of materials and sustainability, interesting and high quality architecture, outside places to eat and drink, interactive public art, venues for public events and music, high quality landscaping, "contained" plazas, appropriately scaled buildings, acknowledgement of Broomfield history, pedestrian oriented design that encourages strolling and lingering, and a variety of shapes, styles, colors, and materials.
- three slides including a summary of the plan, a Q & A session, and an illustrated picture of the plan.
Note: most of the pictures in the slides were taken in Fort CollinsCollection
