Clear Creek Corridor Master Plan

 
The City of Golden, Colorado, has solicited proposals to hire a consultant to prepare a Master Plan for the Clear Creek Corridor to create a unified park experience along Clear Creek in downtown Golden. The Clear Creek Corridor incorporates Lions, History, Parfet, and Vanover Parks and the areas between these parks along the creek. The Clear Creek Corridor should seamlessly mesh with complementary land uses in the area, providing residents a truly unique multi-use area in which to recreate, shop and work; one that promotes synergy with the downtown environment and surrounding neighborhoods.

Project Status

On January 14, 2010, Golden City Council approved a contract with Wenk Associates to prepare the Clear Creek Corridor Master Plan. The Master Plan will guide the development and redevelopment of the corridor and likely cover a span of 10-15 years. The Scope of Work focuses on enhancing parkland and recreation opportunities, establishing cohesive character, improving circulation and parking, reducing user conflicts, improving opportunities for events and programmed activities and ensuring an extensive public process. 

The Master Plan public process will include an advisory committee of community stakeholders, user and web surveys, public workshops and meetings. Plan development will commence in February and is anticipated to take approximately 14 months to complete.  

*Public Meetings are scheduled for the master planning process. Please visit www.clearcreekplan.net for meeting schedules, project updates and to leave a comment.
