The 4th draft of the New Denver Zoning Code is now available. According to the Community Planning Department the 4th draft includes:

• Clearer and more flexible approach to nonconforming uses and structures
• New alternatives that provide more flexibility in meeting build-to and ground story activation requirements
• Clearer standards for large-scale and convenience retail development
• Reinstatement and improvement of the residential bulk plane (which was removed in Draft # 3), resulting in support of solar objectives and the ability to shape buildings that fit their contexts.
• Reformatting of the use tables in each context to provide more information and make it easier and faster to find.
