Mayor’s Award

During Wednesday night’s meeting, Mayor Sindelar presented the Mayor’s Award to Meals on Wheels. In March, Mayor Sindelar asked the community to send her nominations for the Mayor’s Award to recognize a group or individual who went above and beyond and made a positive impact on our citizens during this unprecedented time we are in.

Meals on Wheels was nominated for their volunteer’s commitment to the people who need their services, especially during this time. They have been providing hot meals and other food items 5 days a week to homebound people of all ages and have also been adding more clients and expanding their delivery service area during this time of need. Additionally, they have been very supportive of healthcare and other essential workers by providing donations to local hospitals. Their efforts and commitment do not go unnoticed.

Mayor Sindelar recognized and thanked Holly Oxley, and all of the volunteers at Meals on Wheels for their commitment and dedication to the Firestone community. For more information on Meals on Wheels, please visit www.mealsonwheelsgreeley.com.

Gould Property Update

In two separate actions, the Board of Trustees approved resolutions for the process of clearing off all above-ground structures on the Gould property, located at the northeast corner of Colorado Boulevard and Zinnia Avenue (WCR 26), to allow for the construction of the St. Vrain Water Treatment Plant Project to begin. Work will include the removal of all trees, along with abatement, demolition, and removal of the buildings and structures located on the property.

The St. Vrain Water Treatment Plant is scheduled for construction this summer. The plant will have an initial capacity of 1.5 million gallons per day (MGD), with plans for expansion to 5 MGD. The plant will contain pre-treatment, filtration, reverse osmosis and disinfection technologies and it is anticipated to be fully operational in 2022.

Booth Farms ODP Amendment

The Board of Trustees approved an ordinance to amend the Lot 1 Booth Farms Subdivision Outline Development Plan (ODP) to allow for the development of a senior living facility. The location of the ODP amendment is the northeast corner of Colorado Boulevard and Booth Drive. This ODP amendment now allows the additional use of a Senior Living Facility within the zoning on the property at a density not to exceed 28 dwelling units per acre.

The action taken during Wednesday night’s meeting has not approved any development, rather this is a step in the Firestone Development Review process before subdivision and site planning.
