Bill Gray-Senior Planner
Jennifer Orrigo Charles, Executive Director of Colorado Preservation Inc.,
will attend the September HPB meeting to discuss the 2025 Saving Places
Conference being hosted in Colorado Springs.
Mr. Gray said that they are anticipating an application for a new Historic
Preservation Overlay District for Parkside to be submitted to the City in
August or September. The HPB will likely be reviewing this sometime in
the fall.
On June 25th City Council approved the rezoning to mixed use for the
Union Printer’s Home. The next steps will include the preparation of
development plans, but there is no timeline yet.
The consultant for the Historic Resource Survey plan is continuing to do the
window survey throughout the City. Mr. Gray acknowledged the Historic
Neighborhood Partnership, who assisted by soliciting volunteers and
providing photographs. Stakeholder meetings are continuing. Next steps
will be meeting with the HPB and others to discuss what kind of criteria is
used to prioritize future survey work. A draft is expected by early fall with a
final draft by the end of the year or the first part of next year
