5 ///// BACKGROUND What are brownfields? Per the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Brownfields are defined as: Brownfields are real property, the expansion, redevelopment, or reuse of which may be complicated by the presence or potential presence of a hazardous substance, pollutant, or contaminant. Cleaning-up and reinvesting in these properties protects the environment, reduces blight, and takes development pressures off greenspaces and working lands. Not all brownfields look like this. They can look like this.

Clearly defining the specific public physical improvements required to advance projects towards realization (public and private). E. Defining fundamental design criteria for public projects and determine inconsistencies in policies that inform private investment. F. Preparing a specific list of top priority projects and actions needed to advance the vision.

26 ///// PUBLIC WORKSHOP character and design

27 ///// 6 th STREET character and design 1 (@55) 2 (@41) 3 (@34) 4 (@29) The new long-term vision for 6th Street New buildings that face onto 6th street should take on characteristics similar to downtown buildings to create a "main street" appeal.

28 ///// CITY WIDE character and design 1 (@55) 2 (@41) 3 (@34) 4 (@29) Preserve our small town character while maintaining the livability of Glenwood Springs, increasing the vibrancy and commercial success of the Downtown and directing new development, infill, and redevelopment into a compact form.

29 ///// CONFLUENCE character and design 1 (@55) 2 (@41) 3(@34) 4 (@29) New development should focus on creating a unique destination that will attract people and overcome access and visibility challenges.

30 ///// NORTH GLENWOOD character and design 1 (@55) 2 (@41) 3 (@34) 4 (@29) New development should offer a family-friendly experience and feel safe and inviting to visitors-offering an experience that is worth coming back for. buildings should "open up" to the street and sidewalk, with opportunities to bring the outdoors inside.

31 ///// PUBLIC WORKSHOP OPEN SPACE : a gateway public space at the 6th Street landing of the pedestrian bridge.

32 ///// PUBLIC WORKSHOP OPEN SPACE...: 7th Street as events street corridor that serves as a transportation/connectivity corridor and a high quality public space.

33 ///// PUBLIC WORKSHOP ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT: development of the decommissioned sewage treatment facility should connect the downtown to the river and activate 7th Street and Defiance Avenue [new N/S connection] corridors through redevelopment of adjacent properties.

34 ///// PUBLIC WORKSHOP TRANSPORTATION & CONNECTIVITY: Promote "park once and walk" mindset within the study area- Strategically place parking facilities (garages and lots) to serve private and public use to maximum effect while minimizing the negative visual and activity impacts to streetscape vibrancy.

43 ///// OBSERVATIONS ON THE LODGING MARKET Key Points: Glenwood Springs Lodging Market Glenwood Springs has a diversity in lodging properties for business, historical, budget traveler, and family & friends stays. As Glenwood Springs population grows, so will demand for friends and family hotel nights On the surface, overall lodging market performance indicates surplus capacity. o o Hotel reviews (Trip Advisor) indicate an aging hotel inventory There is a lack of lodging diversity that easily integrates with Downtown and 6 th Street attractions Funding for hotel and motel upgrades, for grounds and facilities, may enable independent operators and others the ability to improve the traveler experience budget and destination. Collaboration with arts and entertainment industries may yield a new Glenwood Springs Experience Glenwood Springs has established itself as rest stop and destination serving travelers and recreators. These established markets should continue to be served, and improving options for mid-priced travelers can attract more demand. This is especially true with the expansion of local attractions. The expansion of arts and entertainment opportunities will further bolster the attraction of destination travelers. Brownfields Planning Team
