West Denver Renaissance Collaborative plans to launch a major housing initiative early next year to help West Side homeowners gain more stability by building accessory dwelling units, or carriage houses, on their property.

 

In 2010, a zoning change allowed ADUs in some Denver neighborhoods based on a number of factors, including community desires. The idea of squeezing low-rise, small-scale affordable housing into existing single-family neighborhoods is very popular in the world of affordable housing theorists, and what’s not to love?

Denver’s government has expanded its composting program to cover the entire city, city officials announced Recently.

Every household that is eligible for municipal trash and recycling services — about 176,000 in all — are now eligible for compost pickup, too. This is a major expansion of the city’s composting program, which keeps organic materials such as food and grass out of the landfill. 

However, you’ll still have to sign up and pay specifically for compost pick-up. Compost service is $29.25 for three months or $107 for a year — so, a pretty decent discount if you pay annually. You can sign up here.

Enrollment is limited, so it’s possible that you won’t be allowed to sign up if you wait too long. As usual for Denver, large multi-family…

Stop by these holiday markets to visit Santa, buy handcrafted gifts, and discover some sweet treats.


Denver Christkindl Market, Nov. 17–Dec. 23, 2017

Skyline Park is transformed into a miniature German village during this favorite Denver event, where Bavarian musicians play classic carols and dance-worthy melodies, and vendors dish up specialties served at traditional German Christmas markets, including baked apples, gingerbread biscuits, charcoal-grilled sausages and, of course, spicy mulled wine (gluehwein). Pick up cuckoo clocks, beer steins and other imported gifts for your loved ones, and sip gluehwein (something that might result in you picking up even more clocks and steins than you originally planned) as you get lost in the twinkling…
