It’s time to make better use of the buildings and spaces we already have.

See the following image sequence as an existing single-family home in a long-established Denver neighborhood is engulfed by incongruent high-density apartments on both sides following the demolition (and “upzoning”) of once neighboring homes. This is what increasing density looks like on the 4400 block on Tennyson Street in Denver.

VOLUNTEERS: THIS IS OUR LAST PETITION RETURN EVENT!

Sadly, this is what we will see under the new Land Development Code. Just today, 514 Wood St in Old Town is being demolished, and the same owner has a demolition permit for its neighboring home at 510 Wood St. These properties were sold in May after being marketed as a ‘scrape and build multi-unit’ opportunity. They were purchased for more than $1 million, and while it isn’t clear what will replace them, it is clear the new construction will NOT be affordable.

Do NOT let those with powerful and vested, monied interests tell you otherwise. Read the listing description below to see how this is an investor and developer free-for-all in the making.

Our smaller and relatively older housing stock is our most affordable. In a cruel twist, those homes will be targeted for demolition and redevelopment into multi-unit luxury housing. This will NOT help workers and lower-income community members at all. They will be displaced and dispossessed. This is gentrification.

Do NOT let those with powerful and vested interests tell you otherwise. Read the listing description below to see how this is an investor and developer free-for-all in the making.

St. Nick is a supporter of preserving Fort Collins for ALL! He opposes selling Fort Collins neighborhoods and communities to the highest-bidding Big Real Estate investors and speculators!

St. Nick notes that he signed the petition because “he needs places to land his sleigh!”

On November 1st, Fort Collins City Council approved a new Land Development Code which will drastically change the character of existing neighborhoods throughout the entire City, and enrich investors and housing speculators.

Please sign our petition NO LATER THAN DECEMBER 18th to send the drastic changes in the NEW LAND DEVELOPMENT CODE to the voters, so ALL residents of Fort Collins can have a real say in the future of our City.

In attempting to address affordable housing, Council has rendered single-family neighborhoods unprotected from speculators and developers eager to profit from replacing existing homes with luxury townhomes and expensive multi-family housing.

Do NOT let those with powerful and vested interests tell you otherwise. Read the listing description below to see how this is an investor and developer free-for-all in the making.

Please join us on Sunday November 27th at 4:00 pm for a VIRTUAL information session via Zoom about the Citizen Referendum to repeal City Council's extensive Land Use Code changes.

On November 1st, 2022, Council adopted, on second reading, Ordinance 114 and Ordinance 115. These proposed land use code changes will not accomplish the goals as stated in the guiding principles outlined in the Agenda Item. There is no clear road map as to how implementation of this plan will lead to affordable housing, only that it will drastically affect our current land use codes, and that, without transparent citizen input.

The proposed zoning will increase “infill and densities” in already established neighborhoods. Since these neighborhoods do not have vacant land, the way to increase density is by demolition of existing homes and construction of duplexes, triplexes and more.

What an amazing turn out yesterday! It was STANDING ROOM ONLY at Avo's for our first information session about the citizen referendum to repeal the radical changes to our Land Use Code (now the “Land Development Code”).

Please join us at Avogadro’s Number on Sunday November 20th from 1:00 pm to 3:00 pm for an informational session about the upcoming citizen-driven Referendum to repeal City Council’s substantial changes to our Land Use Code, now called the “Land Development Code” (LDC).

On November 11, 2022, Preserve Fort Collins filed two Notices of Protest with the Fort Collins City Clerk.

Our Fort Collins City Council did more than change the name of the Land Use Code to the Land Development Code on November 2nd: they also gutted citizen participation, choosing profits before people.
