As the City of Littleton works to create a plan for the Belleview Avenue corridor, city staff are seeking feedback from the public. Your feedback will be used to shape the draft plan.
How well do the issues and opportunities identified for each topic reflect your impressions of the Belleview
Avenue corridor? For each topic, are there other issues and/or opportunities you would add? If so, please
explain.
I think this pretty well captures what was identified in the first public meeting.
Do you have comments/suggestions related to the inventory maps provided on the boards? If so, please
document on a sticky note and place in on the applicable map. Feel free to make additional notes in the space
provided below.
the southbound Federal turn onto Belleview is dangerous. The existing storm drain pulls tires to scrape against the curb. in order to avoid damage most people swing wide into the interior lane, which is improper and dangerous. could a continuous lane be provided with a curbed pedestrian island and a re worked drain?
How well do the vision and principles align with your vision for the Belleview Avenue corridor? Is there anything specific you would add or change?
as homelessness has recently come into clear view in the corridor by the fire in Columbine Square. I am also aware that many families within the corridor are experiencing difficulties through a food donation drive for students on free and reduced lunch programs. I would like to see measures to prevent homelessness, such as low income housing, a community center with a food bank and other services. it is possible an overnight shelter might be needed to reduce campers along the river.
How well do the goals and preliminary policies align with support your vision for the Belleview Avenue
corridor? Is there anything specific you would add or change?
PRINCIPLE 1: CREATE A DISTINCT IDENTITY FOR BELLEVIEW AVENUE
Riverside Downs is an attractive development idea that could be transferred to the north side of Bellview to create a "Streets of Belleview" type of shopping, dining walkable community. Both sides do need assistance in drawing higher quality restaurants. some popular chains could be recruited: Original Pancake House, Panera, Red Robin. I did visit the new consignment furniture store and found it was nice.

corridor? Is there anything specific you would add or change?
PRINCIPLE 2: IMPROVE MOBILITY AND SAFETY
left turn lanes are inconsistent and confusing all along the Centenial property. There are homeowners on the south side of Belleview between Lowell and Federal that park on Belleview, creating a dangerous bottleneck for traffic.

corridor? Is there anything specific you would add or change?
PRINCIPLE 3: PROTECT AND REINVEST IN CORRIDOR NEIGHBORHOODS
Arapahoe Hills and West have single file sidewalks forcing many people to walk in the street. While traffic is low enough most of the time this does not cause a problem, there are still cars that cut through the neighborhood to avoid traffic on Berry and Lowell.

PRINCIPLE 4: SUPPORT EXISTING RETAIL AND REVITALIZE UNDERUTILIZED
PROPERTIES
I agree.

PRINCIPLE 5: CREATE MORE PLACES FOR PEOPLE
as I mentioned before, don't neglect the struggling residents or Homeless to maintain an affluent appearance.
Are there other issues you would add? What opportunities would you like to see explored for this site?
I would like to see low income housing provided here with lots of green landscaping and safe crossing across Belleview and Federal. Somehow the complaint that schools are overcrowded and underfunded to handle additional students must be addressed.
As this site redevelops over time, what would you like to see?
No response.
Do you have other comments on this opportunity area you would like to share?
A possible site for a community center.
Are there other issues you would add? What opportunities would you like to see explored for this site?
Make this site an attractive "Streets of Belleview" Business, shopping and dining center.
Are there other issues you would add? What opportunities would you like to see explored for this site?
find infill business for empty building next to gym, maybe an office center? recruit better restaurants. like the idea of tying it to Mary Carter Greenway. one downside is power lines are noisy and feel unsafe.
Are there other issues you would add? What opportunities would you like to see explored for this site?
I use some of the businesses here. Walters has developed a good following. but there may be a need for a sandwich shop or ice cream shop to feed people using the par, there definitely needs to be safe crossing areas to the park.
What opportunities would you like to see explored for these sites?
I looked at the apartment complex to the south and east of the storage facility and thought what a shame those residents are cut off from a view of the lake. A community of senior independent living condos could be developed along the lake if the noise from the waste management facility is not offensive.
Are there other opportunity areas you would like to see considered?
No response.
WHAT TYPES OF PHYSICAL IMPROVEMENTS WOULD YOU LIKE TO SEE IN THE BELLEVIEW CORRIDOR IN THE FUTURE?
A - Fill sidewalk gaps
B - New crosswalk
C - Enhancement to pedestrian crossing
D - Dedicated bicycle lane
E - Wayfinding signage
F - Other improvements
