November 2018: Monthly Luncheon — Spotlight Denver
Wednesday, November 14, 2018, 11:30 AM - 1:00 PM MDT
Category: Programs
Get up to speed on three programs in Denver that will reshape our city and spur growth.
Adam Phipps, Denver Public Works, will provide an update on the more than 500 projects stemming from the Elevate Denver Bond Program — a 10-year, $937 million bond passed in 2017 that will result in transportation, infrastructure, parks and recreation centers, libraries and cultural facility projects. The National Western Center is moving at a breakneck speed. Keep up with the latest progress at the site from Deputy Director Brad Dodson and learn what’s on the board for the future development at the area known as The Triangle. Rising traffic congestion is an unwelcomed outcome of Denver’s robust economy and population growth. Jennifer Hillhouse, Director of Transportation and Mobility Planning, will show us how Denver is ready to reinvent it’s transportation system through its new Mobility Action Plan.
