The University of Colorado at Denver's Peter Park, associate professor of planning and manager of the Community Planning and Development Department for the City and County of Denver, worked many years on a new zoning code for Denver that has finally been adopted. The Denver City Council recently approved an overhaul of the city's zoning laws, making the first comprehensive change to the city's land-use rules since 1956. The new rules would steer growth and density to areas near transit corridors and support existing development patterns in long-established neighborhoods.
