The city had hoped to plant the trees permanently in various spots downtown or in parks, but there's a problem: They're stuck in 'expensive' planters.
On June 29, Mayor Michael Hancock signed Council Bill 23-0674, which states that the Denver Department of Transportation and Infrastructure will officially vacate the right-of-way of that block of Bannock. According to Gilmore, this means that it is now officially"considered part of Civic Center Park."
While he anticipates that the organization of events and improvements to Bannock will now run more smoothly because of the new law, Lazzari tellsIn 2021, the city and the conservancy conducted a community engagement process and then released the Next 100"final concept plan" in February 2022. It intends to create a guide for updates and improvements for the hundred-year-old park.
Construction on the block will begin sometime later; there is no firm timeline yet, but Gilmore says it will begin no sooner than five years from now. As part of the Civic Center Next 100 plan,"an analysis was conducted for utilities to understand what is possible to relocate and what utilities are fixed, and must be protected and designed around," according to its terms.
