Consistency with Adopted Plans
The rezoning is consistent with the goals and objectives of the recently adopted Westwood
Neighborhood Plan and Blueprint Denver by encourages a variety of residential uses and for
future uses that encourage urban level redevelopment opportunities at a preferred scale and
intensity not possible under the existing zoning. For example:
A. The Westwood Neighborhood Plan’s land use recommendations (C.1.B) encourage a
diversity of housing types in the neighborhood integrating low income, workforce and
market rate housing options including sizes and prices, accommodating various family
structures.
(Westwood Neighborhood Plan, July 2016, Page 44)
2. The Plan encourages a greater mix of uses in the area, with the greatest potential for
higher density, mixed-income housing.
(Westwood Neighborhood Plan, July 2016, Page 48)
3. Preservation of the low-rise residential area should be addressed actively by limiting
blank wall or visible service/loading areas with greater care given to ensure appropriate
height transitions to low-scale residential areas.
(Westwood Neighborhood Plan, July 2016, Pages 48 & 52)
4. Denver identifies the Morrison Road Influence Area as one of the Areas of Change for
mixed land uses, with the potential for higher density, mixed-income housing, providing
goods, services and employment for local residents. The existing, operational mobile
park home provides for such services and opportunities.
(Blueprint Denver, Pages 20-22)
5. Successful development in Areas of Change should not come at the expense of displacing
minority populations and lower-income groups. Successful development within Areas of
Change should become diverse neighborhoods both in income and ethnic background.
The City must be careful to encourage the retention of low-income residents. The
proposed rezoning provides a residential alternative that provides a housing option to
lower income residents.
(Blueprint Denver, Page 127)
Uniformity of District Regulations and Restrictions
1. The rezoning to E-MX-3 will result in the uniform application of the zone district
regulations and restrictions across the City and County of Denver.

Public Health, Safety and General Welfare
The proposed official map amendment furthers the public health, safety and general welfare of
the City by providing for affordable housing options for residents of the City and providing the
regulatory platform for health and safety upgrades to the park and dwelling units not possible
under the current zoning restrictions.
Additional Review Criteria for Non- Legislative Rezonings- Justifying Circumstances
A. The land or its surroundings has changed or is changing to such a degree that it is in
the public interest to encourage a redevelopment of area to recognize the changed
character of the area.
The property subject to this rezoning application has operated as a mobile home park (“Park”) as
a legal non-conforming use for decades. It is widely believed that the Park was in existence as
early as the 1960’s. In 2014, the City passed an amendment to the Denver Zoning Code
prohibiting the upgrade of individual units within the Park claiming that the upgrade was a
modification of the non-conforming use of the Park. The Owner disagreed and brought suit to
challenge the ordinance. The City Zoning Department suggested a potential alternative to a legal
challenge by proposing a rezoning that would permit multiple structures within a single zone lot.
Based on those discussions the Owner is seeking a rezoning to E-MX-3.
The rezoning is justified in that it acknowledges the existing use of the Park and provides the
underlying framework for continued improvement of newer, better housing for a needed market
without the severe limitations of the current code regarding replacement of individual homes.
The rezoning also provides for potential re-development of the site in the future to provide a mix
of the uses that have been identified in the recently adopted Westwood Neighborhood Plan.
B. The Proposed Map Amendment is consistent with the applicable neighborhood context
and with the stated purpose and intent of the proposed zoned district.
Neighborhood Context:
Section 4.1.1- General Character- The proposed zoning to E-MX-3 and the current and future
land uses are consistent with the general character of the Urban Edge Neighborhood in that it
provides for a full range of residential uses. The Park provides for multiple single family units
located on the same zone lot. Its location adjacent to West Kentucky Avenue is consistent with
the location of both single-unit and multi-unit uses.
Section 4.1.2- Street, Block and Access Patterns- The property is adjacent to West
Kentucky Avenue that is part of the general east west grid of Denver Streets. There is no plan to
modify this east west orientation. Existing attached sidewalks providing for pedestrian
2016I-00076

Completed Sept 22, 2016 / $2500.00 fee pd
connectivity between the Park and commercial establishments along Morrison road will remain
and be enhanced.
Section 4.1.3- Building Placement and Location- The configuration of the homes within
the Park will incorporate moderate setbacks from the street although a part of the Westwood
Plan encourages a more urban building line along public ways.
Section 4.1.4- Building Height- The Park is consistent with the neighborhood context
encouraging low scale buildings.
Section 4.1.5 Mobility- The Park provides safe and efficient off street parking as well as
access to sidewalks and streets.
General Purpose:
The proposed rezoning of the Property to E-MX-3 is generally consistent with the purpose of the
zone district through:
1. Promoting the upgrading of homes to provide for a safe, active pedestrian scale diverse
areas ensuring convenient access for patrons of retail experiences along Morrison Road to
the west.
2. Recognizing the diverse pattern of mixed uses in the area.
3. Locating the district along the West Kentucky corridor on a large site.
4. Ensuring that the upgraded homes contribute positively to the character of established
residential neighborhoods and improves the transition between commercial development
and adjacent residential neighborhoods.
Specific Intent of Zone District
The proposed intent of the E-MX-3 zone is met by its application to the Property because the
Property is in an area served by primarily arterial and collector streets where a building scale of 1
to 3 stories are desired.
