The property was annexed as part of the City Core completed. 5 City Council Meeting Minutes March 19, 2024 Annexation and is zoned under the South Main Redevelopment Planned Development. This planned development was approved by City Council in August, 2023. The development is bound by South Main Street, Bromley Lane and US Highway 85 and consists of four lots. Subdivision Plans include general development obligations that are required of a developer. This proposal has one phase. All public improvements must be financially guaranteed with the city. All public improvements mentioned in the proposal must be completed and inspected prior to the issuance of building permits or certificates of occupancy. Most of the development obligations will be taking place within Colorado Department of Transportation (CDOT) right of way. CDOT has identified the intersections of US Highway 85, Bromley Lane and South Main Street as having more vehicle collisions than normal. It has been determined that these intersections are not particularly safe for pedestrians. The development obligations in this plan aim to improve the safety for both vehicle and pedestrian travel. CDOT had heavy involvement in the review of the proposal and provided their blessing for staff and the applicant to move forward. CDOT will continue to be involved in all land use entitlement applications and permitting moving The developer will be required to repave and restripe Main Street adjacent to the development, construct new sidewalks, and construct a new median and new median island at the intersection of South Main Street and West Bromley Lane. The new medians will control turn movements at the intersection to create a safer vehicle environment. In relation to the proposed lot on the east side of South Main Street, the developer will be required to repair and replace new curb, gutter, and sidewalk.

East of Highway 85, the developer will be required to reconfigure and restripe traffic lanes, construct new median. islands, and construct new curb, gutter, and sidewalk. These improvements will aid in the goal of increasing safety. In relation to US Highway 85, the developer will be required to extend the northbound acceleration lane onto the Highway.

The developer will be required to extend the acceleration lane on Bromley Lane to allow vehicles to gain more speed onto the highway. Planner Di The developer will be required to design and construct all water, sewer, and stormwater infrastructure. The developer will be required to provide water resources whether dedication or fee in lieu in accordance with city ordinance. The South Main Redevelopment Plan Development allows the property to utilize adjacent, undeveloped CDOT right of way to meet landscape buffer requirements. The developer will be required to construct landscape berms in the CDOT right of way and provide a landscaped area with native seed and grasses. The completion of these landscape areas will be required as a condition of the release of building permits and certificates of occupancy. The developer will be required to design and construct a city branded monument sign and will adhere to standards that mandate the size, color, and illumination of the City logo. This is considered a public improvement and as such will be required to be completed as a condition of the release of building permits and The proposed plan includes a stipulation that two of the proposed four lots can begin vertical construction simultaneously with public improvements. The buildings will not be able to receive a certificate of occupancy until all improvements have been completed and accepted by the city and CDOT. Staff consulted with the Brighton Police Department, Emergency Services, and the Brighton Fire Rescue District prior to agreeing to this stipulation. The developer is required to vacate city owned right of way within the property prior to approval of the final plat.

The conceptual layout of the proposed plan and the required infrastructure improvements reflect conformance with this designation. In Chapter 3, the plan pursues two opportunity areas by providing for reinvestment in the Downtown Urban Center and byi improving multiple intersections and streets in need of safety improvements. The development of the property will pursue the goal of providing a mixed-use environment within the South Main Street corridor. The proposed plan focuses development in an already urbanized area with adjacent infrastructure, establishes new infrastructure that furthers goals of the Comprehensive Plan and the Transportation Master Plan, and by mandating that development pay its own way. The Comprehensive Plan calls for infill development where possible. This property is located within the urban service area and is The review of this proposal and proposals moving forward will be completed in conjunction with all departments of the city and multiple external agencies. The Subdivision Plan will facilitate commercial development providing for balance between residential and non-residential uses. Development of the land will be within the urban service area and pursue goals of infill development. The infrastructure obligations within the plan will provide for safer transportation movement and options and provide commercial and employment uses within the Downtown area. The Comprehensive Plan has identified the area in need of redevelopment and the Subdivision Plan provides the first step in pursuing this redevelopment. The Subdivision Plan meets the review criteria by facilitating the submittal of a final plat that will conform to the existing zone district requiring that all infrastructure be financially guaranteed, by creating a logical and coordinated phasing plan and that all impacts identified by technical reports have been mitigated through the required infrastructure obligations. The Subdivision Plan does not deter any existing or future development from meeting the goals of the Comprehensive Plan. Many of the infrastructure obligations will benefit adjacent properties. The Subdivision Plan requires upgrades to existing infrastructure and does not impede the construction of planned infrastructure. The Development Review Committee has reviewed the proposal and recommends In accordance with the Land Use & Development Code, signs were posted on the property, written notice was mailed to all property owners within 1,000 ft. of the property, and notice was posted on the city's website.
