In this week’s meeting two major subjects were discussed. One concerning zoning, and the other concerning the right for a restaurant to serve liquor.
A city-initiated request to amend The Master Development Plan was To the council during the meeting. This amendment proposed to rezone Westlands Park, from TC (Town Center) to O-2 (Open Space). Some real Property was also zoned from TC to R-1.5 (Residential-1.5), while some R-1.5 Planned Unit Development was zoned to O-2. There was some concern that the open space would be ruined by becoming a playground or a sports field. The applicant stated the the open space would continue to be open space with no construction. The council ended up voting for all of the ordinances included in the amendment.
The Hotel and Restaurant, Tilted Kilt, requested a liquor license for its DTC location. The council approved this decision with the condition that the applicant could not be the registered manager for two Liquor License establishments at the same time as law requires. The mayor also made it clear that the Greenwood Village Government would punish the applicant severely if it violated its liquor license by serving alcohol illegally, such as to a minor, like the Senor del Sol restaurant did earlier in the year, which the council has dealt with this year in previous meetings.

For my entire life I have lived in Colorado; 3 years in Parker and 14 years in Greenwood Village. I have enjoyed the Colorado environment as I am an avid mountain biker and skier. I am currently a student at Cherry Creek High School and I run on cross country and I am an officer of a community service club called Excalibur. I have always been interested in government since the time I took my first government class in eighth grade. As I have progressed through life I have become more curious about government, especially the government of Greenwood Village-where I have lived most of my life. Although I don't plan to go into policy making necessarily, I do plan to join the Air Force and eventually NASA to carry out the government's policy.
