CCEA is looking for candidates to run for the Board.  Being a part of the Board is a great opportunity to be engaged with what's happening in the neighborhood.  Board positions are 2-year terms and include (but not limited to) attending the monthly Board meeting the 3rd Monday of each month.  The 2021 Annual Meeting is scheduled for March 25th at 6:00pm where each candidate will be presented to the neighborhood.  If you are interested in running for a Board position, please contact Patrick O'Toole at peotoole@gmail.com.

 

The city has drafted new licensing proposals to allow delivery of marijuana to private residences.  For additional details on this new proposed licensing, you may visit inter-Neighborhood Cooperation's website here.

The Cherry Creek East Association Development Committee has been working on a zoning overlay. The Zoning Overlay is an incremental addition to current city zoning. Consequently, if and when it is approved, this becomes a part of the Zoning code for the area. Zoning overlays have been applied or are in process in other Denver communities. Here is more information on why we want a zoning overlay in our community. Why we want a commercial overlay plan in CCE.

The Renewable Denver Community Solar Program is structured to advance Denver’s climate and community objectives, all at no up-front cost and a net savings to taxpayers. It has the potential to achieve multiple benefits including:

• Rapid decarbonization of the electric system via up to 15 MW of solar projects (avoiding more than 15,000 metric tons of CO2 annually).
• Distribution across approximately 30 geographically and socio-economically diverse sites throughout Denver.
• Power sharing between city facilities, low-income housing, and local residents.
• New workforce training and student education programs.

The Ellsworth Storm Project. Phase 1 will be from Steele to Cook. Residents and businesses along Ellsworth have been notified along with Councilman Hinds, we encourage dialog so we can minimize impacts during construction.  Construction will not interfere with  holiday shopping.  More information is HERE

Periodically, someone will ask how they can buy, repair or get a bulb for one of the ubiquitous domed streetlights that are not managed by the city. These are typically made of black painted steel with a domed, traditional looking "London" streetlight top and can be seen mostly on streets east of Madison. While some are on corners, many are placed mid-block. Electricity for most of these is provided by adjacent homeowners and not the City of Denver. If you need a replacement bulb or repair, CCEA has used this Company:

Contractor we used on South Monroe was Radiant Lighting Services.    https://radiantlightingservices.com/ 303-429-3326
