Welcome to Lakewood Together, the City of Lakewood&#39;s community engagement portal. Visit the pages below to get more information and share your thoughts on current City of Lakewood projects and issues. We appreciate your participation and feedback!

Welcome to Lakewood Together

Lakewood is updating the City’s Comprehensive Plan and we want to hear from you! The Comprehensive Plan is an important document that outlines a holistic, shared vision for Lakewood over the next 10-15 years. The Plan will be used by staff, City Council, Planning Commission and other boards and commissions to inform decisions about housing, transportation, climate action, parks and more in Lakewood. Throughout 2024, we will be discussing what our vision and values are for Lakewood and what challenges we need to address moving forward so that we and future generations can continue to enjoy our community and thrive. How to Participate Now: In January we kicked off the public process to start developing the Plan. Over the next few months we want to hear from you about what your vision and values are for Lakewood's future!

Envision Lakewood 2040

<h1>March update: Help envision Lakewood&rsquo;s future</h1>It&rsquo;s time for an important discussion about the future of your city, and we want you to participate. The city will be discussing updating its <a href="https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/Lakewood.us6.list-manage.com/track/click?u=268d277fc592d5119ba1337de&id=16366c3967&e=234909b9e4__;!!Oq6FCji5Qor8sg!ht2CU_L-2QUQc-ylAUxKcR3q4Fw7U32_hiC1kVqhUSOFyVp5146Km5HLZVYBHsf65_wiiLlVzoDMic8cuQ$" target="_blank">Comprehensive Plan</a> and the <a href="https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/Lakewood.us6.list-manage.com/track/click?u=268d277fc592d5119ba1337de&id=c9cc1ae0a7&e=234909b9e4__;!!Oq6FCji5Qor8sg!ht2CU_L-2QUQc-ylAUxKcR3q4Fw7U32_hiC1kVqhUSOFyVp5146Km5HLZVYBHsf65_wiiLlVzoCx1mt1lQ$" target="_blank">Zoning Code</a> during a series of meetings this spring and summer. First up is a March 17 City Council Study Session about the Comprehensive Plan and Zoning Code updates. Following that will be an open house for residents to dig into the Zoning Updates on April 3 from 4 to 6 p.m. at the Lakewood Cultural Center. The Planning Commission will then have two meetings later in April. Come participate!<hr><h1>Why are zoning updates important?</h1>Zoning is a set of laws that regulate how land can be used in a specific area, and cities create these regulations to promote the health and safety of the community. Over the years, these zoning laws need to be updated, and Lakewood is in the process of updating its <a href="https://www.lakewood.org/Government/Departments/Sustainability-and-Community-Development/Lakewood-Zoning-Ordinance" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Zoning Ordinance</a>.The proposed changes that the Planning Commission and City Council will discuss in the coming months cover three main areas outlined below. Visit the <a href="https://www.lakewoodtogether.org/zoningupdates?tool=news_feed#tool_tab">News feed</a> to learn about these different areas of updates:<ul><li>Technical changes that clean up, clarify and modernize the zoning regulations.</li><li>City Council requested changes that will address housing needs.</li><li>Modifications required under new state laws.</li></ul>Follow this discussion and stay up to date on this work:<ul><li><a href="https://youtu.be/QNdxZd_XgRU" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Watch a presentation</a> about these updates.</li><li>Check the <a href="https://www.lakewoodtogether.org/zoningupdates?tool=news_feed#tool_tab">News feed</a> to learn more.</li><li>Read the <a href="https://www.lakewoodtogether.org/27589/widgets/94972/documents/64643" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Zoning Update Staff Report</a>.</li><li>Review the timeline to the right for upcoming meetings and public hearings to find out when to participate in the discussion.</li><li>Sign up to follow the project.</li></ul>

Zoning Updates

Are you concerned about hailstorms, floods, wildfires, and other extreme weather? The City of Lakewood is creating a Climate Hazard &amp; Social Vulnerability Study to be better prepared for the future.This study seeks to build from the <a href="https://www.jeffco.us/488/Hazard-Mitigation-Plan" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Jefferson County Hazard Mitigation Plan</a> with a Lakewood-specific climate hazard and vulnerability assessment and analysis, accounting for the anticipated impacts of climate change. It will evaluate the potential impacts of climate change on natural hazards that pose the greatest risks to Lakewood&rsquo;s residents, infrastructure, and economy, with particular focus on socially vulnerable communities. The project is funded by the FEMA Hazard Mitigation Grant Program.How to participate:<ol><li>Click the &quot;Subscribe&quot; button to the right to follow this project and stay informed.</li><li>Read more about this project in the &quot;<a href="https://www.lakewoodtogether.org/climate-vulnerability?tool=news_feed#tool_tab">Learn More&quot; tab below</a>.</li><li>Tell us your climate impact concerns and ideas in the <a href="https://www.lakewoodtogether.org/climate-vulnerability?preview=true&tool=brainstormer#tool_tab">&quot;Share Your Ideas&quot; tab below</a>.</li></ol>

Climate Hazard & Social Vulnerability Study

Lakewood is dedicated to creating a quality, safe, convenient, continuous and accessible bicycle transportation network to support bicycling as a mode of transportation for all ages and abilities. Besides having numerous health benefits, bicycling as a mode of transportation has the potential to relieve traffic congestion, improve air quality and increase overall mobility in the community.<div class="SCXW250425104 BCX0"><div class="OutlineElement Ltr SCXW250425104 BCX0">What is a separated bike lane?<div class="OutlineElement Ltr SCXW116696586 BCX0">A separated bike lane, also known as a protected bike lane, is defined by the Federal Highway Administration as &ldquo;an exclusive facility for bicyclists that is located within or directly adjacent to the roadway and that is physically separated from motor vehicle traffic with a vertical element.&quot;  </div><div class="OutlineElement Ltr SCXW116696586 BCX0">Because they are physically separated from vehicular traffic, separated bike lanes can contribute to increased bicycling volumes by appealing to less-confident riders who may not feel comfortable riding a bicycle directly adjacent to a moving vehicle. They can also improve overall safety on the roadway through traffic calming effects and by increasing motorists&rsquo; awareness of the bicycle facility.Summer 2024 installationLakewood is installing the city&rsquo;s first separated bike lanes this summer on Denver West Parkway, Garrison Street between Jewell and Alameda avenues, and a small section of Harlan Street near Alameda Avenue. These roads have all been striped as buffered bike lanes (a double-striped bike lane with a 1-3&#39; buffer zone between the bike lane and the adjacent travel lane) and are being upgraded to separated bike lanes with the installation of plastic curbing and posts in the buffer zone. The short parking-protected segment of Garrison Street between Utah and Iowa avenues will also be upgraded this summer with plastic posts in the buffer zone, but no curbing will be installed to avoid creating a tripping hazard for motorists entering and exiting their parked vehicles.Work was completed on Denver West Parkway in late June, on Harlan Street the first week of July, and on the first portion of Garrison Street between Jewell and Mississippi avenues in mid-July. Work will begin on Garrison Street between Mississippi and Alameda avenues in early August. No re-striping will take place as a part of this installation. Transportation staff is still exploring the possibility of installing 1-2 additional separated bike lanes on streets with existing buffered bike lanes in 2024. Any additional installations will be included on this project site as soon as next steps are decided.</div>Next steps</div><div class="OutlineElement Ltr SCXW250425104 BCX0">A proposed network of future separated bike lanes will be developed during the <a href="https://www.lakewoodtogether.org/bikeplanupdate">2024-25 update of Lakewood&#39;s Bicycle Plan</a>. In addition to pursuing recommendations in the updated plan, the city will continue to evaluate locations for installing separated bike lanes during the annual street maintenance program when roads are repaved. They will also be considered on an ongoing basis using the factors listed on the right side of this page.Stay up to date on the status of these separated bike lanes as they are added throughout the city by subscribing to this page, and participate in this project in other ways: </div><div class="OutlineElement Ltr SCXW250425104 BCX0"> </div><div class="ListContainerWrapper SCXW250425104 BCX0"><ul class="BulletListStyle1 SCXW250425104 BCX0"><li aria-setsize="-1" class="OutlineElement Ltr SCXW250425104 BCX0" data-aria-level="1" data-aria-posinset="1" data-font="Symbol" data-leveltext="" data-list-defn-props='{"335552541":1,"335559684":-2,"335559685":720,"335559991":360,"469769226":"Symbol","469769242":[8226],"469777803":"left","469777804":"","469777815":"hybridMultilevel"}' data-listid="1"><a class="Hyperlink SCXW250425104 BCX0" href="https://www.lakewoodtogether.org/separatedbikelanes?tool=qanda#tool_tab" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Ask us a question.</a> </li></ul></div></div><div class="SCXW250425104 BCX0"><div class="ListContainerWrapper SCXW250425104 BCX0"><ul class="BulletListStyle1 SCXW250425104 BCX0"><li aria-setsize="-1" class="OutlineElement Ltr SCXW250425104 BCX0" data-aria-level="1" data-aria-posinset="1" data-font="Symbol" data-leveltext="" data-list-defn-props='{"335552541":1,"335559684":-2,"335559685":720,"335559991":360,"469769226":"Symbol","469769242":[8226],"469777803":"left","469777804":"","469777815":"hybridMultilevel"}' data-listid="1"><a class="Hyperlink SCXW250425104 BCX0" href="https://www.lakewoodtogether.org/separatedbikelanes?tool=news_feed%22%20\l%20%22tool_tab" rel="noreferrer noopener" target="_blank"></a><a href="https://www.lakewoodtogether.org/separatedbikelanes?tool=news_feed#tool_tab" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Visit the frequently asked questions. </a></li><li aria-setsize="-1" class="OutlineElement Ltr SCXW250425104 BCX0" data-aria-level="1" data-aria-posinset="1" data-font="Symbol" data-leveltext="" data-list-defn-props='{"335552541":1,"335559684":-2,"335559685":720,"335559991":360,"469769226":"Symbol","469769242":[8226],"469777803":"left","469777804":"","469777815":"hybridMultilevel"}' data-listid="1"><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ske6wlR0uPI" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Watch March 2024 project update presentation to City Council.</a></li><li aria-setsize="-1" class="OutlineElement Ltr SCXW250425104 BCX0" data-aria-level="1" data-aria-posinset="3" data-font="Symbol" data-leveltext="" data-list-defn-props='{"335552541":1,"335559684":-2,"335559685":720,"335559991":360,"469769226":"Symbol","469769242":[8226],"469777803":"left","469777804":"","469777815":"hybridMultilevel"}' data-listid="1">Review the Additional Information section to the right. </li></ul></div></div>
