Task force members will help develop strategies to modernize the rezoning process and criteria and help advance Blueprint Denver’s equity concepts by reviewing best practices, identifying key issues and refining alternatives and recommendations. Task force members were selected from the more than 80 community members who submitted the interest form. The task force includes a diverse range of stakeholders from across Denver with experience in neighborhood advocacy and/or the rezoning process and who bring various equity lenses to the discussion.
