A plan was submitted to the Homestead Board that would alleviate Denver and other public access, not Homestead access, and increase the value and desirability of your Homestead property. Homestead could also receive money . The reason the Denver public is not presently on Homestead open space and crossing Homestead’s 120 acre conservation easement for public access to the forest, is because the Allen easement is exclusive, meaning that only Homestead homeowners and persons involved with the Allen parcel, can cross over or be on the Allen easement. Homestead should be concerned, because the Allen easement could change to a public easement, if the Homestead board does not agree to the Allen plan for only (5) 35 acre parcels , which could tremendously reduce future traffic through Homestead. Critical information will follow. Barbara Allen Opinion paid for by:
