This project sounds like the perfect uprade to the Los Colonias buisness park area.Residential units will be vital to the cities growth.

Being a contractor/developer in Grand Junction for many years it is my opinion, long with many others, that we need more people living in, or near, the downtown area to create the vibrant downtown economy we all desire. This project, along with others being planned, will move Grand Junction in that direction. The 7th Street corridor will become the vital link for connectivity to the new Las Colonias Business/Recreation area to the South. This project will be a key element in achieving this transition. This developer's resume is impressive and and will bring innovative ideas and design to Grand Junction. This is exactly the type of project the community should embrace and support. I suggest the Planning Commission display our "Western Colorado charm" and appreciation by moving this project forward. Please approve the Comprehensive Plan Amendment and Rezone.

As an owner of properties in the Las Colonias Park area, and also working on and with projects that involve the expansion and connection of downtown and Las Colonias Park, I see this as a great opportunity to add a much needed high-quality residential component.

I highly encourage this zoning change. It is an excellent to opportunity to provide needed residential housing near downtown. This will also further enhance Seventh street as a major corridor to Los Colonias.

Great addition to the City. We need and must encourage this type of development to realize the potential of our downtown.
