3303 Broadway Development Proposal

11/18/2016

​3303 Broadway (old People's Clinic) Development Proposal - Thursday December 1 Planning Board Review

On Thursday December 1 at 6:00pm at the Municipal Building at 1777 Broadway, the Planning Board is having a public meeting where they will decide whether or not to approve a development proposal for 3303 Broadway, the old People's Clinic site at the corner of Broadway and Hawthorn.  The site borders Foothill School.  The Board will review the site plan and consider proposed changes to the land use designation and the zoning.  


The current proposal for the 1.3 acre site includes:
  • Two three-story buildings (57,000 square feet floor area)
  • 50 residential units including six town homes, ten two-bedroom apartments, and 34 efficiencies (smaller than 475 square feet);
  • A 'neighborhood activity center' that could include a restaurant, convenience store, and gym
  • 68 parking spaces, where 101 would be required by city code 

The city has information on their website at:

https://maps.bouldercolorado.gov/development-review/


Type 3303 Broadway in the upper right hand corner.  A menu will appear on the left.  The lower part of the column (documents with the prefix RR3) contain the most recent documents.

Members of the public who wish to provide input will have the opportunity to speak at the meeting.  They may also write to the Planning Board in advance of the meeting: 

 boulderplanningboard@bouldercolorado.gov

If you come to the public hearing on December 1st, you may want to bring your children for a great educational experience in local government.  (Though be aware the meeting could run late.)

If you have questions, contact Susie Park-Kelly (parkkellys@gmail.com)

Great Fall in the Foothill Garden

Thanks so much to all of the teachers, students and volunteers who helped make the Foothill Garden such a success this fall!   Each grade had their own garden lessons designed by the amazing Growe Foundation, and we raised nearly $500 from the farmer’s markets. 

​On October 31st a team of volunteers and leaders from Growe got the garden ready for the winter by pulling the plants out of the soil and raking compost on top.  We’re excited to get going again in the spring!

If you didn't happen to step inside the walls of Foothill Elementary on Halloween, you'll be kicking yourself after seeing these photos.  You might have stepped inside of a school but within a couple of feet, you were immediately transported into the Land of Oz.

The front office staff completely transformed their space into something straight out of Kansas, complete with poppies, flying monkeys, a twister and of course, the yellow brick road.

A big shout out to the amazing women that make Foothill a magical place to spend each day, Halloween or not.
