CITY OF BOULDER
~~ PARKS AND RECREATION ADVISORY BOARD AGENDA ITEM
MEETING DATE: September 22, 2003
AGENDA TITLE:
Possible disposal of six acres at Valmont City Pazk for relocarion of Pollard Motors.
PRESENTERS:
Jan Geden, Duector, Parks and Recreation Department
Jeff Lakey, Supermtendent, Plannmg and Development Drvision
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
The purpose of this item is to transmrt to the Parks and Recreation Advisory Boazd
(PRAB) further mformation concernmg the possible land disposrtion m Valmont Crty
Pazk. The disposrtion is to facilrtate the relocarion of Pollard Motors to six acres m the
Park along Peazl Parkway at the south end of [he Park. The relocauon of Pollazd Motors
would free up land at its former site for the Boulder Transit Village (BTV), located at the
,,.~ northeast comer of 30`" Avenue and Peazl Street.
~ At the request of Pollazd Motors, the City ~s exanumng the possibihty of relocating the
Pollazd's Jeep dealership because, although 25 other srtes were explored, Pollazd has
expressed a preference for the park srte Several City departments aze collabora[mg on
exammmg the request
This rtem exammes two hypothetical options foc accommodating the dealership on pazk
land The Boazd is asked to discuss and comment on the mformation. Staff suggestions
for the PRAB aze mcluded toward the end of this rtem.
The PRAB wdl also have an opporturuty to heaz ttus item at its October 28`~ meetmg. On
the day followmg its October meeung (October 29`") the PRAB will transmit its advice to
Council m a ~omt work session.
Fiscal Impacts:
Bud~etarv: Should the City act to move Pollazd Motors to the s~te, it will set back
the already m-hand Valmont City Pazk development appmvals and will reallocate
six acres of pazk land to other crty uses. To overcome the setback, staff time and
other resources will be requued to regun pazk approval status that currently
exists To overcome the loss of pazk land, the Crty is proposmg to compensate
the Department m a manner and amount to be determmed
To date, approximately $19,500,000 of pubhc funds have been spent, and at least
,,_, 72 pubhc meeungs have been held, to assemble the site, prepare the master plan,
prepare the prehmmary engmeermg stud~es and cost estimates, and obtam

development approvals based on that work. If Pollazd Motors is located at ~^+;
Valmont City Pazk and the pazk land is reduced from 132 acres as previously
approved by the Council, then the current approvals will need [o be revised for
126 acres pnor to movmg ahead wIIh construction of future phases.
Staff Time This rtem does and fiuther potenhal studies will requue addiuonal
staff ume Should the Council choose to relocate Pollard Motors to the Valmont
C~ty Pazk, addrtional staff and consultant time will be requued to authonze
changes to the Valmon[ Ctty Pazk Development Plan compazed to the amount of
staff tune requued to leave it as ~s
Other Impacts:
Econom~a The positive unpacts of erther the pazk pro~ect or the Transrt Village
Pro~ect have not been studied. The mvestment to date m Valmont Crty Pazk, m rts
entuety, is sig~ificant as already suggested, and is summazized later m the
document
Commumtv The unpacts from the standpomt of the pazks and recreauon
commumty will be percerved as negative. The approved master plan was built
azound the pnnciple of synergistic co-locahon of mutually supportroe acuve
recreauon uses. The synergy concept was driven by two goals: to enhance the
visitor expenence and convemence, and to reduce the use of automobiles The
arrangement of achvrties promoted muluple uses and one-stop actrve recreation ~
potential. The former concept will be dimmished if six acres of the pazk is lost to
other uses.
Public Feedback:
To date one commumcation from the pubhc has been received by the Department and is
mcluded as Attachment A.
Staff Recommendation:
Staff recommends that the PRAB discuss and comment on th~s uem There are staff
suggestions for PRAB's consideration and these aze descnbed after staff findmgs m the
Analysis and Options section below Comments and opimons provided by the PRAB
will be forwazded to the City Council by way of rts mmutes m the Council's Weekly
InformaUOn Packet
After th~s month's meeung, staff will prepaze an rtem for the PRAB's consideration at its
October meetmg based on the mformation received at the September meeung
Analysis and Options:
As requested, staff has prepazed a map (Attachment B) of the Pollard's proposal together
wrth a cursory mdication of impacts to Valmont City Park and the Pazks and Recreation
Department. The findmgs below diswss the proposal m some detail, and explore a few
cursory impacts of implementmg the proposal. -~
AGENDA ITEM # VII-A PAGE 2
~ Findtngs on the BT'V/Pollard Motors Proposal
~ 1 The BTV/Pollazd proposal imagmes reallocatmg six acres formerly devoted to
active mdoor recreation uses m the approved park plan to create a six acre
automobile dealership parcel m the southeast portion of Valmont Crty Pazk (map
is Attachment B). The proposal would reduce the pazk holdings from 132 acres
to 126 acres.
2. If the proposal moves ahead to authonze City Council to complete this land
reallocation, there will be many potennal re-design and reorgan~zation
opportumties for Valmont City Pazk's land use and cuculation plan.
For study purposes only, two re-design options have been prepazed and analyzed
and aze presen[ed m findmgs below. In both options, Pollazd Motors is allocated
approximately six acres m approxunately the same locauon m the pazk Staff
beheves this u the location the company prefers. In addrtion to identifymg a
location for Pollazd Motors, one vaziable has been mcluded to create two study
options. The vanable is the locanon of the Pazk Operations Division facihties m
the pazk. The two options are (see maps Attachments C and D).
• Optron A- Pazk Operations Facilrties (Pazk Operations) Moves, and
• Option B-Pazk Operations Operarions Facilities (Pazk Operations) Stays
"Pazk OperaUOns" is the azea of the site where the primary pazk maintenance
funcuons for the City oF Boulder Pazks and Recreauon Department are located.
t
ti, Please note that dunng the Valmont City Park plannmg process m the late 90's, ~t
~ was detemuned that six acres was an appropnate future land azea requued for
Pazk Operations Since that time, the Mountam Parks staff has been re-assigned
to the Open Space Department, mcludmg some of the functions that were thought
to be needed to accommodate Pazk Operauons The former six-acre site need is
now reduced to four acres.
Also note that the "skate pazk" area descnbed below refers to a roughly 3 acre
area where the adopted plan mcludes a skate pazk and some pazkmg. Stnce the
time of planning Valmont City Pazk, a new skate park was built at Scott Carpenter
Park, fulfillmg m a different locaUOn the pnor need for that function at V almont.
3. If the current park plan is imagmed as a chessboazd, then the followmg basic
moves of "chess pieces" (land uses) nught cursonly descnbe the effects on the
current plan of Option A- Park Operations Moves, (see Attachment C) wkuch
would contmue the approved concept of re]ocatmg the Pazk Operarions srte to 49`h
Street and Valmont Road:
a. Move Pollard Motors to its desued six acre srte
b Move Pazk Operations to west side of park and assume reduction of build-
out space from six to 4 acres (due to loss of Mountain Pazks operations)
Approximate cost to relocate $4 to $4 5 itull~on.
r,., c Delete skate pazk. Assume need met by skate park at Scott Carpenter Park
~~, (which was built afrer the Valmont Pazk plan was adopted).
AGENDA ITEM # VII-A PAGE_3_
d Utihze new 8 38 acre s~te (previously occupied by Pazk Operations and
ska[e pazk) for up to 88,000 squaze foot recreat~on buildmg and required
pazkmg m azea, approximately replacmg uses lost to Pollazd Motors.
e Utihze 2 5 acre srte west of 49`" Street for low-tr~c-volume recreation
buildmg(s) or facihty development Site capacrty would be 25,000 square

f. The prunary development constramt for uses on 49`" is hmited d~rect safe
access to and from the west side recreahon facihty srtes from Valmont
Road wluch is restncted by high loadmgs on Valmont Road
Option A- Park Operations Moves
Pro's Con's
Parks and Recreation loss of a s~te
which can accommodate 98,000 squaze
foot building may be mitigated by
reconfigurat~on of the park plan to
reveal two building srtes•
• one 8 34 acre srte for the 88,000
squaze foot buildmg, and
• one 2.5 acre srte for a 25,000
squaze foot buildmg
Loss oF six pazk acres and associated
development potential
Pollazd Motors' impact on traffic may
mclude offsrte ~mprovements to Peazl
Pazkway and Auport Road (~f rt stays
m the park plan); these improvements
m the neighborhood may be
improvements that the Parks and
Recreauon DeparEment could avoid by
providmg land for Pollazd Motors
Loss of pnmary lazge facil~ty (98,000
squaze foot) site per approved concept

views, entry)
Auto dealer visual presentauon
replaces primary pazk-like entry at
Pearl Parkway wrth views of cars,
buildmgs, and a non-park-like setung
and design character
Requues srte review amendment after
sigmficant redes~gn and re-engmeenng
AGENDA ITEM # VII-A PAGE 4
~ 4 Option B- Park Operations Stays (see Attachment D) would abandon the
~- previously approved concept of relocatmg the Park Operauons srte to 49`~ Street
and Valmont Road.
a. Move Pollard Motors to its desued six acre srte.
b. Delete skate park as above
c. Retaui the park mamtenance fac~lrties in rts existmg location and assume
that 4 acres remam allocated to tkus use. A 4 34 acre site remams afrer
shrmkmg the Pazk Operauons srte to 4 acres (due to loss of Mountam
Parks operations) and deleung the skate park This new srte could support
a 50,000 squaze foot recreat~on buildmg and ~ts requued pazkmg.
d. UtIlize the two srtes west of 49`~ (4 acres and 2 5 acres) for low traffic
volume recreation buildmg(s) to help compensate for the mdoor recreation
space deficiency m"c" above, or for other recreation or operations facihty
development Srte capacrty would be sigruficantly hituted due to restncted
traff'ic flows the City has mdicated rt w~ll impose onto Valmont Road from
49~' Street.

srte for a 50,000 squaze foot buildmg unmet mdoor recreation needs
and its parkmg
The PRAB is encouraged to consider these examples and the issues they raise It
is apparent that detailed proposrt~ons for redesign will requue pubhc mvolvement
and further development of the land use program revision cntena, road and access
cntena, and other critena that aze too complex to be ascertazned
5. Pnor actions and due dingence on behalf of the Parks & Recreation Department
demonstrate a pubhc mvestment m the Valmont City Pazk pro~ect of at least 72
pubhc meetmgs and approximately $19,500,000 m public funds dedicated to the
pro~ect smce 1996. These can be accounted for m the followmg manner
•$14,463,000 was expended for property acquisrtions
•$5,017,424 was expended for plannmg, design, srte clean up, annexation,
and miual construction
~,

A break-out of plannmg related expenses mclude ,.,~
•$656,000 for concept plan and srte review, and annexation review and "'
approvalprocesses(1997-1999)
•$818,000 for staff (plannmg, des~gn, and oversight of construction 1997-
2003)
•$565,783 for consultmg services to promote and support partnership
development (1999-2003)
6 The approved Concept Plan / Site Review plan mcluded the followmg new land
uses for construchon on 132 acres:
a. Recreation buildings

~^ h. Two ditches and area between: generally natural undeveloped, trail system
`.- only
~. General pazk uses hillside neaz jail property east of buIldmg
~. Goose Creek: generally natural undeveloped, Greenways trail
The organization and arrangement of these uses was deternuned m pubhc
meetmgs over many yeazs The alterauon of the orgamzauon plan by the Pollard
proposal has "ripple effecY' imphcations on the organ~zation of the entue plan
Wtule several azeas aze unlikely to need to be redesigned, many others will need
to be shifred, reconsidered, and potenhally ehmmated
Imtial very rough estimates for the total pazk mfrastructure (roads, utihties,
demoLtion) costs, excludmg Phase 1 construction already completed, is
approxunately $12,000,000 (2002 dollazs).
Implementation of the Pollard's proposal would fundamentally alter the nature of
pnor representations by the Crty to the pubhc concemmg the pazk's land use
classification and permit status In addition, the Boulder Valley Comprehensrve
Plan designates the 132 acres Valmont City Park as either "water," "pazk," or
"neighborhood commerc~al." The azea desued by Pollard Motors is currently
designated as "pazk." Further land use actions requued to complete the process of
movmg Pollazd to the Valmont City Pazk site aze very hkely to mvolve•
~ a. Pollard Motors' apphcation to the Crty of Boulder for approval of the
creation of a six acre dealership pazcel, a Comprehensroe Plan
Amendment (Pazk to Industnal or Busuiess), correspondmg Rezonmg and
Subdivision apphcations, and Site Rev~ew of the dealerstup's development
plans.
b. The Parks and Recreauon Department's applicauon (as the reduced-s~ze
126 acre Valmont Crty Park) to the Crty of Boulder for a revised Site
Review Plan which would requue approval by the Crty through its formal
Site Review Amendment process
Since the pnor approval mcluded prehminary site engmeering for roads,
utilrties, dramage, gradmg, sidewallcs, and so forth, the redesign would be
detailed and complex, but would be the minimum requued to bring the
status of the reduced-s~ze pazk plan, mcludmg the l~kely "npple effects" of
such a substantial change, to the same state at wluch the presently adopted
plan exists. Sigmficant time and money resources are l~lcely to be requued
to redesign and re-approve the park land use orgamzation plan and obtam
the development pemuts. It is difficult to determme the cost to redesign
un[il there is an opportunity to determme the "npple effects" of changed
land use and cuculation relationships on the park design
8. There u a long legacy of representation to the pubhc that Valmont City Pazk
compnses 132 acres of land that was diligently planned and subsequently
"~" reviewed and approved for development m vazious pubhc sethngs by the
"`"r appropnate and highest authonties m the City of Boulder. As a result, there is a
AGENDA ITEM # VII-A PAGE_7_
widely held perception that any potential d~sposal or re-designauon of its lands for ,.~
other than pazk purposes would mvoke a public heazmg and a vote, bmdmg upo^ ,„
City Council, by the Parks and Recreation Advisory Boazd. Along with th~s
understandmg, it is also widely believed that all of the lands of Valmont City Pazk
aze mdeed "pazk lands° as defined m the Crty Charter and that requue a heazmg
and vote by the PRAB pnor to disposal. Lastly, it is equally widely beheved that
all of the lands commonly known and referred to as "pazks° by the public,
admmistered and mamtauied by the Parks and Recreation Department and by the
PRAB, aze mdeed "pazks" under the defimtion
9 The Crty Attorney has prepazed an opmion (see Attachment E), dated August 28,
2003, "Cuwmstances Related to Crty's Acquisit~on of Eastem Portion of Yazds
Property " It oudmes that the "yazds" azea of the pazk was "ongmally acquved
by the Crty" for Pearl Pazkway right-of-way purposes and expansion of the C~ty
Yards w~th funds other than those that would grant PRAB rts charter-duected,
pazk land disposal oversight. The opu~ion is clear m showmg that under the legal
record, a portion of Valmont City Pazk not acquued by duect purchase as new
public property by funds specifically defined m the Crty Charter u not sub~ect to
PRAB review and vote concernmg disposal.
10. The BTV proposal mcludes the development of a nuxed use pro~ect of housmg,
transrt, and commercial land uses, as well as a pnvate pocket pazk, res~dential and
commercial pazkmg (see Attachments F, G, and H) The transit center element
of the pro~ect ~s a stacked-deck structure for car parking, bus stops, and future rail
transrt access. It is possible that a newly conceived stacked-deck design for the ~
automobile dealerstup might mutually benefit the transrt center, the dealersh~p, "i
and the commerc~al and residential uses through the economies of scale that cmght
be associated with it. The addrtion of a stacked-deck dealership to the Transrt
Village concept might mean that only one or two acres of land would be needed
for that use, as opposed to six, as presently descnbed.
Concluding Dascussion
The BTV concept plan might possibly be unproved, and the need for Pollazd
Motors relocation elinunated, if an enlazged stacked-deck concept for Pollard
Motors car storage, together wrth additional pubhc or pmate residenual or
commercial pazkmg, were explored The addiuonal cost of stackmg decks aught
be offset by the potential costs saved from not havmg to pursue land exchanges,
to provide off srte development to serve the Pollard site, to extend uhhaes to the
site, to transact the land exchange, to pay additional development review fees, to
expenence the delays due to approval processmg, and to devote staff time to
pursue these matters. The staff suggests that PRAB seek a stacked-deck desien
study for the BTV to ascertazn the viabihty and potential ual~ty of vertical
development of the srte. Staff also suggests that PRAB request a report on the
critena used to seazch for potential akernative dealership sites, mcludmg an
assessment of the alternative Qarcels explored, and the reasons why the critena
were not met for each pazcel. ~

r^-• 2. If there is affirmat~on of the opmion that the Council may, based on the legal
^.. mterpretauon, choose to reallocate six acres of pazk land for the BTV/Poilard
Motors Relocat~on, then there is the matter of ascertazning the process for
deternumng the type and amount of compensation to the public for its park land
loss at Valmont City Park. As shown m the findmgs, there has been a substanual
process to accomphsh the defmrtion of the park pro~ect and to obtun City of
Boulder approvals and permits Although not all of this would need to be
abandoned wrth the relocation proposal, much of rt would requue repeatmg at
substantial cost to the City of Boulder, as accounted for m the functions of the
Pazks and Recreation Department. The staff sue¢ests that the PRAB affum a
need to secure potential remunerations as follows, or as alternatively sugeested bv
PRAB.
a. A suitable re~acement stte of at least six acres with equivalent
automobile pubhc [ransit and bikeway access and cuculation, open space
(now provided b~}_Go~e Creek) and wildlife area proxuruty, development
anvrovals and requued offsrte unprovements~ or
b An eauivalent sum of cash for untestncted use bv the denartment for nazks
and recreation pumoses which ts to addrtionally include the cost of the use
of staff or consultants fo~lannm .~~nmg, and developmg - to the
currently emoved state of approvals at Valmont City Pazk - those
purooses.
,~ 3. There is a City Attomey's opmion upon wluch the Crty Council appears ready, in
~.- part, to base an action concernmg the reallocation of pazk land There is a strong
sense m the communrty that all 132 acres of Valmont Crty Pazk aze pazk lands
whose disposal authonty resides with the PRAB The staff wdl provide further
mformauon on this issue at the September 22 meetm~for consideration and
d~scussion by PRAB

To Parks and Recreation Board Members -
r~
I have been followinq the Pollard Motors relocation saga with a great deal of
interest, since I live in the Noble Park subdivision 7ust north of Valmont
City Park. My neighbors and i banded together many years ago to show our
support for the park, to replace the auto graveyard and pungent chicken egg
ranch that once blighted our part of town. We also worked diligently to
convince City Council that we needed and deserved a recreation center of our ^A
own to serve the most densely populated part of Soulder, and the citizens of ./
Boulder agreed with us when they voted "yes" on the 0.25 percent sales tax to
fund VCP.
I acknowledge the dilemma regarding this displacement of Pollard Motors for
the new Transit Village, but find it difficult to understand why, after
watching parcel after parcel of commercial land being bought up all over
Boulder these past few years (much of it with the high visibility Pollard
Motors craves), now all of a sudden the only available land left is in a
community park~ Presumably the Transit Village concept has been in the works
for a while, creating an awareness that perhaps Pollard Motors should be
looking for a new location. I ~ust don't get it.
How ironic to come full circle, from an auto graveyard to an ugly used parking
lot. I'm begging you, PLEAS& don't allow this slap in the face to our
community and Valmont City Park! We didn't vote for this- we don't want
Pollard hlotora in out beloved park - and we want our rec center, as promised
Respectfully,

SL'BJECT: Circ.imstances Related to City's Acqnisiaon of Easum Pordon of Yazds Property
DATE: rlugust 28, 2003
Tlus memorandum descnbes the results of research related to that pomon of the Ciry Yards
that is located east of Goose Creelc Tfie owners of Pollard Motors have expressed interest in chu
property as a potenaal relacacion site whea chey have w leave their current site in order co make
mom for che proaosed BouIder Transit V'illage.
The issue involves tIIe timitations, if any, imposed by Chazter § 162 upon the sale of ttus
]and. The Charter pmvision limits rhe disposal of park lands by providing that padc lands may be
disposed of only after aa affirmauve vote of at least four members of the Padcs and Reczeaaon
Advisory Boazd. ITiis is relevanc because the pomon of the Yards' laad under coasideiation in che
memorandum has been under coosideration for developmeat for Parks purposes.
PerGneat Charter Provision
_.~.
~.
The phrase "park lands," as uulizea m Charter ~ 162 is defined by Charter § 15a. riccordiag
co chat definiuoa, land ~s "park lands" (for tlus purpose) only ~f ic falls mto one of the following ttuee
cate~ories:
'C~.rwfnmwnn ~am usm ~s +c'-ysw wpC
AGENDA f f EM # ~ i I-!~ ~ PAIGE~
Land that was donated co the Ciry for park or recreauon purposes;
2. Iaad rhat was acquued by the Ciry throu~h purchase, dedic~rion, deed, or condemna[ton for
park or cecrea[ion purposes; or,
3. Laad tha[ was purchased or improved in whole or in pazt with fuads from the permanent Park
and Recreanon Fund
Research
Research mta Ehe circumscances of the acqmsinoa of ttus proper[y has disclosed che
followin;
A 1982 memorandum from Ron Donahue of the Parks aad Recreanon Department indicates
that 43.79 acres of land in ttvs azea were acquired from Shor~ vfilne, a Colorado parmership.
Apparently five pa~els (plus a,~ift parcel) wete acquired by the Ciry over a period of four years
between 1969 aad 1973. In the 1982 memocandum, these parcels aze descnbed as parceLs A though
E, and a"~ft pazcel;" (see Attachment A). Based upon a visual evaluaaon of perrinent maps, it ,,.,~
appears that parcels "D" and "E" of this ~oup make up che area cuaeatty under considersaon.` t_ ,
The source of the funding for the purchase of these parceLs is esrablished by informaaon
generated by the Cic}~s Fiaance Deparoment la aa email communicarioa dated 7nae 9, 2003, the
account aumbers cha,ed for the acqaisidons of the various pazcels are listed; (see Aaachmeat B).
T2vs informaaon sugo su that the land was pucchased using the Public Improvement Fund'-
As a cesult, it does not appear that any part of the land in quesuon ~s affecud by Charter
§ 162 restacuon on the disposal of pazk lands. This tand was not "donated" for Parks usage or any
other usage because the Ciry purchased the land. There u no evidence to sugo st thaz the land was
origutally purchased for Parlcs' purposes. Ia fact, the 1982 memo says chat rhese parcels `tvere
acquued for future right-of-way of Peazi SCSet and the eapaasian of Ciry Yazds."
` If it became cnncal to do so, Public Works could confirm thu conclusion by us~ng GIS data
w matcfi up the metes and bounds descripdons on the dr_ds with ~he Yards ~~x~^ou map-
Howcver, the visual map anaIysis ~s clear wich respect to the idencificanon of the parceis.
= In che Ptul Ludwi; and Cappie Fine amail there ~s a noce that thls "public improvement"
expenditure was composed of Qansfers Irom other deoarmieacs. However, no fvnd detail beyond '""~
this could be lacated ~'

Conciusion
Based upon this and some addicional reseazcfi, it appears that there is no evidence that this
ptnpezry was puichased or improved with funds from che permanent Park and Rzcreadon Fund The
evidence is cleaz that this land was ori~nally purchased with ocher funds.
The fact that the limitarions imposed by Charter § 162 have no app&cation to ttus properry
daes not mean thaz Parks' needs in this area shouId uot be coasideied. To [he connary, Parks' uses
are important and should be considered as the Ciry determines how ro ut~lize its various resourc°s.
Ta the end, the Ciry may decide that the Iand here ia question, or other nearby land, ~s best uulized
for P~its purpases. How,ever, in deciding how to allocate its land resources in t2us area, the Ciry will
presumabiy balaace all of is vanous noeds aad pnoades. Based upon the research noted here, u
appea:s that Charter $ 162 will have no applicanon to chac balancing ezercise.
AttacLmeats:
The conciusions ia tteis memoraadimm are based, in pazt, upon aa analysis of the following
attached documeats:

Boulder Transit Viilage
Project Description:
The Boulder Transit Vdlage is a proposed transit oriented development that wdl combine
a multi-modal transit station with hous~ng and commercial uses at an 11-acre site at the
northeast corner of 30"' Avenue and Pearl Street in the city of Boulder. The Boulder
Transit Village will accommodate current and future local and regional buses, future
commuter rail and bus rapid transit, a 100 vehicle park 'n ride, pedestrian and bicycle
network connections, approximately 300 affordable and market rate residential housing
urnts and supportive commercial uses. The project goal is to prowde a frfry percent mix
of affordable and market rate housing with a mix of ownership and rental product
options.
The Boulder Transit Vdlage is a partnership beriveen the Regional Transportation Distnct
(RTD), the regional mass transit operator based in Denver, Colorado and the City of
Boulder. The project is consistent with local, regional and state-wide planning efforts
mcluding the City of ~Boulder 28'" Street-2000 Study, the US36 Ma~or Investment Study
and RTD's Transit Development Plan The Boulder Transit Vdlage is a top work priority
for the City of Boulder and addresses all of Counal's top four goals to provide affordable
housing, transportation, environmental and economic sustainabdity
Project Participants:
The City of Boulder Housing, Planrnng, Transportation, Open Space Departments, the
Boulder Urban Renewai Authority, the Regional Transportation Distnct (RTD).
,~°"" Development wdl be prowded by a public/private partnership in con~unction with the City
~.,. of Boulder and RTD
Project Status:
• Site Selection and conceptual design are completed.
• Land Acqwsition is in progress with projected completion in 2003
Current Funding:
Funds to purchase the land has been provided by the City of Boulder Transportation and
Housing Departments and RTD Housing and commercial pro~ect elements will be
financed by a future pnvate developer.
Project Timeline:
2003: Acqwre property
2003/2004: Conduct public input process
Complete final design
Issue RFP for development

SUBJECT: tafrnmadon on Boulder Transit Village
DATE: September 16, 2003
The purpose of this memorandum is to address questrons and themes that emerged from
the July 28, 2003 Pazks and Recreadon Board Advisory Boazd and to provide some
~ background mformat~on on some of the more frequendy asked quest~ons regazding
Boulder Transit Village (BT'V).
Why is ttte Boulder Transit Village project important?
The vision for the Boulder Transit Village was developed by the City Council, BURA,
Planmng Board, Transportation Advisory Board, Housing Technical Review Group,
Housing Implementatron Team, RTD Board of Directors and the public, culminating in
approximately 7 years of local and regional planmng and public process ~
The Transit Village is envisioned as an integrated transit oriented development that
combmes current and future local and regional transit with a mix of commercial and
significant levels of housing and affordable housing. In other words, it will eventually
serve the community's needs with local and regional buses, future bus rapid transit and
future commuter rail trains, housing and some supportive retazl sernces. Part of the
economic objechve for the pmject was to act as a catalyst for economic development to
the "eastem fringe" of the developed urban area and to create a vital, new "multi-modal"
oriented neighborhood.
~ T'he Boulder Transrt Village emerged as a vuion Crom approximately seven years of pubLc process
mcludmg local and regional plaiwng efforts such as the 28t° Street 200U Comdor Srudy; the US36 Ma~or
~ Invesmunt Study, RTD Transit Development Plan and the North 28'" Shcet Transportauon Network Plan
It is cons~sunt with the c~ty's Comparauve Housmg strategy, its Comprehensive Plan, the Crossroads
Consoruum Repor[ and RTD Fastracks Plan
AGENDA ITEM # ~~~, PAGE~
Can the size of the project be made more compact?
Tlus addresses the question of whether the Pollazd Motors business and the Boulder
Transit Village can co-eust and shaze the site at 30`" & Peazl. Ia other words, is it
possible for Pollazd Motors to remain at their current site occup}nng the westem "halF' of
the property wtule the Boulder Transi[ Village occupies the "eastern ha1P' of the site~
Yes, it is possible to build a transit stat~on with a smaller footpnnt than that envisioned
for the current pro~ect and construct this stadon on the "eastern halP' of 30~' & Pearl.
However, ttus would be a very different pmject. Housing and economic development
ob~ecuves of the pro~ect would probably not be ackuevable at anythmg neaz the pro~ected
levels. T1us dces not mean that the project would have no ment, but it would mean that
the vision that emerged from years of planning would not be achieved.
There is room on the: `eastern half' of the 30`~ & Peazl site to construct a transit stat~on
with an accompanyuig pazk and nde lot and possibly some very small scale transit
supportive commercial achves such as a newspaper/coffee luosk or somettung of tkus
scale However, there is msufficient room to accommodate housmg and a safe gnd road
network for transit, housmg and commercial mgress and egress.
~
It is important to note that there aze sigmficant operatronal and possibly federal
constraznts that prevent constructing a second access on to Peazl Street between the
razlroad tracks and 30'~ Street. ~.
In addidon, it may be difficult to obtain pro~ect development Fmancing if the pro~ect
scope erodes to the degree that it is not perceived as creatuig a new transit onented
neighborhood and is simply a"transit station".
A smaller pm~ect would have the followmg characterisdcs as compared to the current
vision of the pm~ect:
• The transit statron alone would not create a new neighborhood or serve as a"catalyst"
for redevelopment in the area
• ElimmaUng most housing from Che project would probably reduce transit use because
it would also eliminate some transit ongins. (The people who live at the village aze
most likely to use [he convenient transit opaons that will be avulable on-site.)
• Congestion auhgauon would be sigmficandy lessened m the absence of housmg on
site.
• The Trans~t Village has been one of the top Ciry Council pnoriues for the last several
years and is one of the few pro~ects that address all four of Council's top goals of
economic and environmental sustainability, affordable housing and multi-modal
~
AGENDA ITEM #1/ I~-~, PAGE~,
~"` transportat~on. Changing the project to a uansit stop would sigcuficandy alter iu
`~,. ability to serve these diverse and important goals.
• The housiag component of the project has been central to t6e process of assembling
the fmances that make the project possible. As a result, significandy shnalung the
scope of the housing component of the project would require a re-evaluation of
funding feasibiliry.
Is it viable for the housing component to scale back to a more compact~project that
allows the Pollard Motors to remain at their current location at 30 and Pear1
Street?
Preluninary analysis of a much smaller residenual development indicates very margmal
financial and marketing feasibility.
The proposed Transit Village site at 30~' & Peazl Streets covers 11.23 acres. If Pollazd
Motors were to retazn the western 6 acres, that would leave 5.23 acres for transit,
housiag, roads and infrastructure and commercial. The site selection study
commissioned for this project indicated that 3.5 - 5 acres is needed to accommodate
current and future transit needs alone. That leaves something in the range of .23 to 1.73
acres that might be potenually developed as housing.
,~. Anyttung under one acre wouid not merit development for housmg.
~..r
Even if one to two acres were available for housing development, there would be serious
marketing and logistical limitations. For example, from a markeung and economic
perspective, the northeast corner of the site would not be viable for housing. This is
because any such development there would be surrounded on three sides by a caz lot,
trnin tracks, and the transit/bus stop. Tlus would not be a mazketable configuration for
residenual use. Also, the shared use of a smgle access mad for both the transit and ihe
residenual, assuming a location on the site north of the transit station would be very
problemat~c and may not workable from a safety and regulatory perspective.
The Transit Village concept is considerably more viable for residenual development.
Such a site would have frontage on 30~ Street and would not include a car lot as a major
neighbor to the west. It would be adjacent to a grocery/shoppmg/entertaznment (movie)
area, and there would be very attractive view corridors to the west and south.
A recent analysis conducted by housing planmng staff sugeests that the economics of a
much smaller (1.25 acre) pro~ect are marginal. Assuming a high level of density of 35
units per acre, (considerably higher than any cucrent or recent densities developed, but
this site might be appropriate for such a high density), and assuming 1.25 acres available
for housing, this could mean a residential development of about 44 units.
,.-.
~
AGENDA ITEM # V I ~_ R~ , PAGE~ ~
Rough eshmates of development costs are as follows. $708,000 for land at $13 squaze '^*
foot), $1,089,000 for mfrastructure ($20 square foot); $4,400,000 for construction ($100 ~
square foot, 44 two bedroom and 1000 square foot umts), plus 20% developer's fees and
overhead, totaluig approximately $7.4 m development costs. Assuming half of the ucuts,
22, as permanendy affordable, witt- 20% of those, or 9 units, not subsidized, and $30,000
in subsidy for 13 umts, with sellu~g prices for the permanendy affordable units at
$138,000; the sales price for the market rate units would need to be$182,000.
T1us analysis presents a picture of a relatrvely small pro~ect that will requue substanual
staff time and investment. It would result in a lunited number of affordable homes and
would have mazgmal economic viability It would have quesuonable markeung potential
for a less than desirable residen6al site. Presented with these realit~es, there is a stron;
probability that the Techmcal Review Gmup (TTtG) and housing staff wtuch advises on
housmg pro~ects and use of housing funds would be inclined to consider and pursue other
affordable housing opaons.
Are there ot6er viable relocation sites for Pollard Motors?
The City's relocat~on agent reviewed more than 25 possible relocat~on sites m the
BoulderBroomfield/Supenor azea Each of those was rejected by Pollazd
representauves. As part of the Yazds Master Planning process which underwent
considerable staff time and effort, one potentially viable site was identrfied by city staff at
the municipal yazds. The Pollazds rejected that site formally and m wnung. Tnstead, they ,,.,,,~
have requested six acres located a few hundred feet to the east of the mumcipal yards site r
located at the "old eco-cycle site", programmed by Pazks to be part of a proposed new
132 acre future Valmont Pazk. It has recently come to our attenuon that PRAB has
requested addidonal informauon on the process used to date for coasidering relocation
sites for Pollazd Motors.llus information will be provided to PRAB at their October
meeting.
Why is timing for this project critical?
A settlement offer has been on the table from the Pollazds smce Mazch 4, 2003, neazly 6
months. Pollazd representatives have stated they are willmg to move from 30`~ & Peazl
and make a deal with the City today, if they can be provided a 6 acre relocatron site at the
"old eco-cycle site" located just east of the municipal yazds on wtuch Pazks has pm~ected
uses for a 132 acre future Valmont Pazk. Although city staff have consistently stated to
the Pollazd's representatives that ttus site is not available, other altematives have not been
acceptable to the Pollazds.
Council has directed staff to pursue a negotiated agreement. The willingness of the
Pollazds to relocate may not be available in the future. ff tkus occurs, the only choice left
by the city might be to pursue eminent domain.
The wrrent city council has been involved in plannmg of both Valmont Pazk and Boulder
Transit Village; they have considerable ownerslup m both of these important city ^
AGENDA ITEM # Y I I~ , PAGE ~
'"`""' pro~ecu. Because of their involvement with both of these projecu, Council may be
`'~ interested in and may be expecting to at a mmimum, have an opportunity to provide input
on the relocation issue before the fall election.
Also of concern: Loss of momentum could present real pmblems for the pro~ect
Current funding opt~ons may not exist mdefimtely. In particulaz, Housing and RTD
Funding is available now and is reserved. It may be difficult to continue holding but not
using funds in the face of other pressing pnorities. Land and development costs could
escalate m the future making the project less feasible. Local and regional tax revenues
contwue to decline, making the abiLry to leverage and provide "local match" to future
TOD gants difficult to obtain, pazuculazly from RTD one of our important pro~ect
partners.
Will the city lose tax revenue if the Pollards decide to relocate outside of Boulder or
to another location that the Pollards may claim is less desirable?
It is unlikely that there would be a direct tax revenue loss due to the relocation of Pollazd
motors ouuide of the city or due to relocating to another locauon wittun the city Tax
revenue &om auto purchases benefiu the city m which velucle purchasers Lve.
Can the proposed programming goals for the future Valmont Park be met while
also accommodating Pollazd Motors?
~
a,,,,,, Whether or not pazk requirements can be saasfied at locauon other than the one m wtuch
the Pollazds have expressed mterest becomes a cnhcal quesuon ~f the "old eco-cycle site"
site at the south end of the proposed Valmont Pazk is the only one that the Pollazds will
accept voluntarily. The discussion of this quesaon is beyond the scope of this memo and
will requu~e substant~al input from Pazks staff, the Pazks and Recreat~on Advisory Board
(PRAB) and Council. It is intended that the process idenufied by city managec Frank
Bruno and staff for the September and October PRAB meeungs and ~omt council study
session will address ttus question and pmvide some opt~ons for movmg forwazd with
Boulder Transit Village and Valmont Pazk, both of wluch aze very important city-wide
projects.
Options and Next Steps
The Boulder Transit Village pro~ect is at a cndcal ~uncture. It cannot move forwazd
without policy direct~on. In fact, it may be at nsk altogether unless the city can promptly
decide how it wishes to address the relocation issue.
If the project is to move forwazd by way of a negot~ated settlement, a relocat~on site that
is acceptable to the Pollazds must be found.
