On Tuesday night at the end of a 4.5 hour meeting, P&Z delayed its vote on an amendment to the Comprehensive Plan that would create the Orchard Station Subarea until October 18.
Alberta Development Partners worked hard to turn out support, including mailing packets to residents and publishing a full page ad in the Villager. Despite those efforts, opposition dwarfed support by a count of 129-39.
Opposition to the new Subarea and Alberta’s proposed 2.8 million sqft development (Equal to Park Meadows and Cherry Creek Shopping Center combined) is based on concerns that Alberta’s massive development will create large increases in traffic, overcrowding in schools, blocked views and will substantially alter the character of Greenwood Village.
