PUBLIC NOTICE AND NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING
The City of Cripple Creek plans to submit a Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) application to the State of Colorado, Department of Local Affairs. CDBG funds are intended to provide decent housing, suitable living environments, and economic opportunities, principally for low and moderate-income persons through rehabilitation and preservation, economic/job development, and public facilities improvements.
The application being considered would request $100,000 for Engineering and Project Planning for the ‘Pocket Park'. It is estimated that approximately 100% of the funds would benefit low and moderate-income persons. Permanent involuntary displacement of neighborhood persons or businesses is not anticipated. Should it later become necessary to consider such displacement, alternatives will be examined to minimize the displacement. If no feasible alternatives exist, required/reasonable benefits will be provided to those displaced to mitigate adverse effects and hardships. Any low and moderate-income housing which is demolished or converted will be replaced. In compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act, individuals needing special accommodations (including auxiliary communicative aids and services) during these hearings should notify Camille Krochta at City Hall Planning Department, 337 E. Bennett Ave, 3 days in advance so that appropriate aids can be made available.
A public hearing will be held at 6:00 p.m. on August 27, 2025, at City Hall Council Chambers 337 E. Bennett Ave. Cripple Creek to obtain citizen views and to respond to proposals and questions related to:
- The proposed CDBG application for this project; and
- Community development and housing needs, including the needs of low and moderate-income persons, as well as other needs in the community that might be addressed through the CDBG program; and
- The performance of the City of Cripple Creek in carrying out its community development responsibilities.
- Potential historical effects.
A copy of the application as submitted to the State will be available for public review at the Clerk's office, City Hall. Written comments are also welcome and must be received by August 27, 2025. Oral and written comments will be considered in deciding whether to submit an application for the proposed project. Written summary information will be available at the City Hall Clerk's Office August 29, 2025, until October 31, 2025, on any CDBG application(s) the City of Cripple Creek intends to submit to the State.
