Title
AN ORDINANCE APPROVING THE AMENDMENT OF THE NEXUS NORTH AT DIA PUD ZONE DOCUMENT TO INCORPORATE 12 ADDITIONAL ACRES OF ADJACENT PROPERTY LOCATED AT THE NORTHWEST CORNER OF TELLURIDE ROAD AND E 84TH AVE., INTO THE PUD ZONE DISTRICT, IN COMMERCE CITY, COLORADO.

The proposed amendment does not change any of the approved uses, bulk standards, or design standards for the Nexus North project. It simply adds the additional property to the existing planning area in Nexus North, PA-1.
The Planning Commission was supportive of this amendment because it allows this small amount of remaining vacant property in the DIA Tech Center development, under similar ownership, to be combined with property in the Nexus North Development to present an opportunity for a larger building and increased overall development potential. The rezoning preserves the use of the property for DIA Technology future land uses as prescribed in the Comprehensive Plan as both PA-10 in the DIA Tech Center PUD and PA-1 in the Nexus North PUD allow for similar land uses.
