NC2A vs RA Zoning

My name is Saber Amine and my address is 6071 S Franklin Street. I have been a resident of Franklin Meadows since 2012. My family and I moved here because we fell in love with the laid-back and Country feel of the neighborhood.

My father, Dr. Charles Smedley, a third generation Denver dentist, grew up near City Park, but always wanted in live in the country. After serving in the Navy as a dentist in World War II, he found 12 acres of farm land in 1947, with a little one bedroom cottage at 6100 S. Gilpin Street, where he raised his family of 4. It was his dream that this little "oasis in the middle of the city", surrounded by the High Line Canal Path would remain as open space for the public to enjoy. Three years ago, we began the process of establishing a Conservation Easement on 10 acres of that farm land. In a partnership with South Suburban Rec. Dist., Arapaho County and t...
