The City of Durango, Colorado retained MLP to update its Comprehensive Plan, which will incorporate the City’s recent character district, affordable housing, sustainability and mobility initiatives. The update also is needed to resolve significant growth and utility extension issues created by the development of Lake Nighthorse Reservoir and the proposed dedication of a planned growth area (Ewing Mesa) for community recreation, culture and open space purposes. Creative Community Builders joins the team to develop an arts and culture element that will define the City’s relationship with its arts community and identify cultural resources for protection and enhancement.
