Summary & Background

The City of Commerce City owns approximately 240 rentable square feet of 7190 Colorado Blvd., Suite 500 located on the 5th floor within a six-story office building, commonly known as Adams Tower. The City desires to make that space available for rent and provide City residents with access to more services. The City aims to provide services, resources, and support to the residents of Commerce City through the support and partnership of non-profit organizations, and Black Parents United Foundation will help close the gaps in those services. Black Parents United Foundation is a Colorado nonprofit organization located in Aurora who desires to rent space from the City. The mission of the Black Parents United Foundation is to provide support and resources for parents of black and brown children to empower their children, and to promote equity, diversity, and inclusion through confidence building, community development, and community engagement.
