Project Update from Brett Limbaugh

Madam Mayor and Loveland City Council,

Development Services staff is providing an update on the West End Neighborhood project and related community outreach to address some misunderstandings that have emerged. Three previous emails sent to the neighborhood on July 18, 2023, July 31, 2023, and October 2, 2023 confirmed the following.

The City withdrew its re-zoning application for this neighborhood on July 18, 2023.
The City planned to engage with interested stakeholders to explore other options that are receptive to the reasonable concerns of participants in this process, while meeting the needs of the City’s Comprehensive Plan and Unified development Code.
The City would create a special project webpage to allow for participation from all residents in the neighborhood and interested parties. That webpage includes a survey for neighborhood feedback open through Oct. 20. The webpage is letstalkloveland.org/west-end-neighborhood-project.

Those emails from myself and Principal Planner Kerri Burchett are attached.

As stated, the survey is simply meant to collect viewpoints from all residents about land uses in the West End Neighborhood to help the City inform next steps on possible future land uses.

Also, the Let’s Talk Loveland webpage includes questions that have been raised from the neighborhood during the engagement process and has a place for residents to pose their questions directly for staff to address. We have attached those FAQs as well and encourage Council and residents to review those for additional clarification.

Please let us know if you have any questions.

Thank you,

Brett A. Limbaugh, AICP
