The Start of Summer: A Season for Home, Family, and Fresh Additions
As Memorial Day weekend approaches, it marks more than just a long-awaited break or the unofficial start of summer—it signals a shift in how we live, gather, and enjoy our homes. The warmer weather, longer days, and the return of outdoor entertaining awaken something in all of us: a desire to refresh, expand, and enhance the spaces we call home.
ADU In Arvada Regulations and More
Sustainable Design Build has been providing Denver and the surrounding metro area with experienced and knowledgeable services towards building homes, remodeling interiors, creating home additions and of course constructing ADUs. Accessory Dwelling Units, or ADUs, have come up in a growing trend across the city where homeowners are seeking to build a separate accessory home that can be perfect for a number of uses. For SDB, Denver residents have had the primary interest in building ADUs, but there are many regulations and roadblocks that can stop a project from beginning. The same can be said for any municipality, just like Arvada. At Sustainable Design Build, we are committed to helping Arvada homeowners navigate the ADU building process so that a smooth and streamlined building experience is provided.
Denver’s “Waste No More” Ordinance: What It Means for Home Construction and Remodeling
In November 2022, Denver voters approved the “Waste No More” ordinance (Initiated Ordinance 306), mandating comprehensive recycling and composting practices across various sectors, including construction and demolition (C&D) projects. This initiative aims to significantly reduce landfill waste and promote sustainable building practices throughout the city.
Denver Looks to Open New Park Hill Recreation Park For Summer
Denver’s parks and recreation department wants the former Park Hill golf Course to open as a park this Summer. Following Denver City Council’s decision to approve a land swap agreement on Monday, Westside Investment Partners and the city will deliver a new regional park for the surrounding community.
Park Hill Golf Course Land Swap and Park Plan
The City of Denver is moving forward with a landmark plan to transform the former Park Hill Golf Course into a large public park through a land swap agreement with Westside Investment Partners. This decision follows years of legal and political battles over the site’s future, with strong public support favoring the preservation of open space. Under the proposed agreement, the city would trade a similarly valued parcel near Denver International Airport to gain control of the 155-acre property, paving the way for rezoning, park planning, and eventual development. While the initiative represents a major investment in green infrastructure and community recreation, city officials are also weighing concerns about potential gentrification and displacement in surrounding neighborhoods.
