Description
Title: Approves a map amendment to rezone property from E-TU-B to E-MS-3, located at 1453 North Wabash Street, in Council District 8.
Summary
The legislation under consideration involves a request to rezone a property located at 1453 North Wabash Street in Denver’s East Colfax neighborhood from E-TU-B (Urban Edge – Two Unit) to E-MS-3 (Urban Edge-Main Street-3 stories). This change aims to unify zoning across a larger parcel currently occupied by an auto-body shop, allowing for expanded business operations and improved aesthetics. The proposal is supported by The Fax Partnership and aligns with Denver’s Comprehensive Plan 2040, Blueprint Denver, and the East Area Plan, promoting mixed-use development near transit. Public hearings have been conducted, with mixed feedback from neighbors. The rezoning is anticipated to enhance local business viability and contribute to community development.
