  • Inventory of Existing Conditions
    Inventory of Existing Conditions Introduction Boulder Municipal Airport is located in the City of Boulder, Colorado. Nestled at the foot of the Rocky Mountains, the Airport has served an important niche in the general aviation market for the City and its surrounding region. Boulder Municipal Airport is open to the general public and to visiting aircraft. The Airport does not have commercial passenger activity and has been in continuous operation at this site since 1928. Boulder Municipal Airport is located three miles northeast of the City of Boulder, in north-central Colorado. The Airport is located within the Denver metropolitan area, on the eastern fringe of the Rocky Mountain range. The Airport provides a safe operating environment for a variety of general aviation aircraft types, ranging from gliders and small powered aircraft to corporate jet aircraft. The airport’s relative location within the region is illustrated in Figure A1, AIRPORT LOCATION MAP. The City of Boulder is located at the base of the eastern Front Range of the Rocky Mountains in Colorado. Boulder is surrounded by several communities, including Superior, Broomfield, Louisville, Lafayette, Erie, Longmont, and Lyons. Although Boulder has not grown significantly in the last ten years, the exponential growth of the surrounding communities has influenced the City of Boulder and the regional transportation system. While airport planning documents related to the layout of airport facilities have been kept up-to-date, an overall master planning study of airport facilities has not been completed since 1994. During this time, aviation issues on a local, regional, and national level have changed, and the FAA also recommends that an Airport Master Plan be updated every 5-10 years.

Current apartment market conditions: tight.

Major industries include tourism, health care, telecom- 2015. Strong employment and population munications, and high-technology manufacturing. Leading em- growth contributed to the ranking. ployers include HealthONE LLC, CenturyLink, Inc., and Lockheed Martin Corporation, with approximately 8,350, 6,500, and 4,750 employees, respectively. As a regional center for federal govern- ment agencies, and with the city of Denver as the state capital, the metropolitan area also relies heavily on public-sector employ- ment, with more than 69,000 state and federal employees. • As of January 1, 2015, the estimated population in the met- ropolitan area was 2.77 million, reflecting an average annual increase of 47,600, or 1.8 percent, since July 2010. • Despite weaker economic and housing market conditions from mid-2005 through mid-2010, population growth remained rela- tively strong, averaging 40,900 people, or 1.7 percent, annually, partially because quality-of-life factors attract people to the met- ropolitan area. • Net in-migration averaged less than 40 percent of total pop- ulation growth from mid-2005 through mid-2010, which kept population growth at 1.7 percent annually. Since 2010, net in-migration has nearly doubled, to an average of 28,600 peo- ple, or 60 percent of population growth, annually as job growth increased dramatically after recovering from the effects of the national recession.

  • Central Mountains Area Plan 1 Introduction This Area Plan Is an Update to the 1994 Central Mountains Community Plan
    Jefferson County Comprehensive Master Plan Table of Contents 2 Introduction 2 History 10 Demographics 10 Land Use Recommendations 16 General Policies 30 Maps Jefferson County Comprehensive Master Plan - Central Mountains Area Plan 1 Introduction This Area Plan is an update to the 1994 Central Mountains Community Plan. The creation of the Central Mountains Community Plan started in June of 1989, and involved rigorous participation from a Community Advisory Group comprised of 13 people, chosen by the Board of County Commissioners as representatives of the community. The update of this Plan was started by Jefferson County Planning and Zoning Staff in the spring of 2012 with the intent of incorporating the Community Plan into the Comprehensive Master Plan. Seven public meetings were held throughout the update process to gather comments on the Plan. The goal of the update was to re-evaluate the existing conditions related to land use and then create a land use recommendation map and policies that are specific to the Central Mountains area. The recommendations in this Central Mountains Area Plan supersede the recommendations in the Central Mountains Community Plan. This Plan is shorter than the 1994 plan because any goals or policies that were duplicated in the Comprehensive Master Plan have been removed. This Plan now only contains information, land use recommendations, and policies specific to the Central Mountains Area. History The history of the Central Mountain community with its three canyons Mt. Vernon, Bear Creek and Clear Creek is rich with memories of Colorado’s early mining days. That these canyons are the “Gateways to the Rockies” is a statement just as true today as it was in 1859 when miners began haul- ing their equipment up the old Ute Indian trails to the gold mining near Idaho Springs, Central City, Leadville and Breckenridge.
