Go Bond Update - July 2017

7/18/2017

 
Mayor Hancock and Council President Albus Brooks released a list of infrastructure improvement projects to be included on the November ballot on July 12th. The list includes 460 projects in every area of the city and is valued at $937 million. Without raising tax rates, these projects will allow us to make essential repairs to our streets, parks and recreation centers, police and fire stations, and libraries and cultural centers. The list includes:
  • Transportation projects that will help us complete and connect our pedestrian, bicycle and transit systems – and repave streets, fill potholes and make our roadways safer for everyone. Ultimately, making our transportation network easier to get around.
  • Projects to repair and improve parks and playgrounds, and a new rec center for underserved neighborhoods on the west side of town.
  • Upgrades to police and fire stations, some of which have become woefully rundown.
  • Renovations to our libraries – including improvements to our flagship Downtown Central Library and to branches all across Denver that will ensure these facilities are safe and modern.
  • As well as upgrades to our prized arts and cultural facilities, including a new animal hospital at the Denver Zoo and projects at the Museum of Nature Science, Art Museum, Performing Arts Complex, Botanic Gardens and up at Red Rocks.
  • And an important outpatient care center at Denver Health Medical Center to provide quality, affordable care to those who need it most.

The next step in the process involves City Council holding two public “committee of the whole” meetings July 17 and 24 to review each project with city staff. Council will then meet Aug. 7 and 14 to consider the final package. For more information about the 2017 GO Bond process, visit www.denvergov.org/2017GObond.
