H Road / Northwest Study Area Growth Plan Amendment
 

Map of Area

 

The H Road/NW Study Area includes that area west of 22 Road to almost 21 Road for that area north of H Road and south of the H ½ Road Alignment.  It also includes five properties located on the SE corner of H Road and 22 Road.

 

 

History

Did you know that this area was recently included in the City of Grand Junction/Mesa County’s Persigo 201 Sewer Service area?  Earlier in 2006 the Board of County Commissioners and the Grand Junction City Council approved the expansion of the sewer service area to include the current study area. 

This means sewer will be available to properties within the study area as sewer lines are extended.  New development will be the primary source of upgrading and expanding the sewer collection system

Pear Park Neighborhood Plan

The Pear Park Planning effort began in the winter of 2004 as a joint effort between the City of Grand Junction and Mesa County, with the participation and involvement of School District 51. The plan area includes both City limits and unincorporated areas of Mesa County. The Pear Park Neighborhood includes all properties located between 28 Road and 32 Road and between the Railroad Tracks (I-70 Business Loop) and the Colorado River. The results of this planning effort are included in the document listed below.

Orchard Mesa Neighborhood Plan

The development of the Orchard Mesa Neighborhood Plan began in 1992 as a joint effort between the citizens of Orchard Mesa, Mesa County and the City of Grand Junction. The final plan was adopted in 1995. The study area of the plan is approximately 13 square miles and is generally located south of the Colorado River, east of the Gunnison River and west of 33 Road.

In March 2000 the Grand Junction and Mesa County Planning Commissions updated the 1995 Orchard Mesa Neighborhood Plan and Future Land Use Map.

Orchard Mesa Plan and Future Land Use Map 2000 Updates

  1. Revisions were made to the Future Land Use Map to reflect current use and zoning in the Unaweep business area and other inconsistencies between the adopted City Zoning Map and the Growth Plan.
  2. The existing mineral resource map was replaced with a new mineral resource map for the Orchard Mesa Neighborhood Plan area.
  3. An addendum to the 1995 plan depicts accomplishments of the implementation items of the plan. This addendum is placed at the end of the Orchard Mesa Neighborhood Plan and serves as an accomplishment reference for the remaining five years of the plan.

24 Road Corridor Plan

The 24 Road Corridor Subarea Plan was adopted by the City Council in November 2000 and was developed to articulate a vision and to plan and strategize for the future use and development of the project area. This area is approximately 1,000 acres in the vicinity of 24 Road between Interstate 70 and the Mesa Mall on Patterson Road. The Subarea Plan will assist the City of Grand Junction, utility and service providers, and property owners in the project area as they plan for the future use and development of the area. This will include important infrastructure investments that will be necessary to serve future development. (Click on the picture to the right for a larger view)

Planning Process

In September 1999, the City of Grand Junction initiated a planning process for the 24 Road Corridor. The purpose of this study was to evaluate current and future market conditions in the 24 Road Corridor, evaluate different land use and development alternatives, identify a preferred pattern of development and formulate an implementation strategy.

Redlands Area Plan and Redlands Transportation Plan

The Redlands planning area is located south and west of the Colorado River from the Highway 340 Colorado River Bridge at Fruita on the northwest, the Colorado National Monument on the south and the Gunnison River on the east. In concert with the Redlands Area Transportation Study (RATS), Mesa County and the City of Grand Junction updated the 1986 Redlands Goals and Policies Plan to reflect the specific needs of the Redlands. The Mesa Countywide Land Use Plan and City of Grand Junction Growth Plan, adopted in 1996, and the Fruita Community Plan 2020 provided the basis for this more detailed neighborhood Plan. The plans identify the needs of the area as it has changed over the last several years. The plans provide specific policies and implementation strategies for achieving the identified goals.

The Planning Commissions have adopted the Redlands Area Transportaion Plan and the Redlands Area Plan. Click below to see the full documents.

   

Westside Downtown Redevelopment Study

The Westside Downtown Redevelopment Study examines the opportunities for potential enhancement and redevelopment of the area of downtown bounded by Main Street on the north, the railroad tracks to the south and west, Fourth Street on the east. This area is anchored by the proposed Grand Junction Historic Intermodal Plaza and Two Rivers Convention Center. A grant has been received from the Great American Station Foundation to study the feasibility and design of the proposed intermodal plaza. The redevelopment study for the larger area will proceed concurrent with the intermodal plaza study. Elements of the study include transportation, parking, pedestrian circulation, land use, streetscape historic structures, design guidelines and an implementation strategy.
