BACKGROUND, ANALYSIS, ANC ALTERNATIVES IDENTIFIED
Ea rl y i n 2007, City Council autho rized a study of th e marke t potential fu r lo dging servi ces i n
Englewoo d. Th e ana lys is by Hon,vath H orizon , H ospi tality Adviso rs, LLC , datect March 9, 2007
indicated th at there is market demand fo r lodging in En glewood. Th e study ,.:so no tes th at th ere is
no t currently a sup1ily of modern , !:•a nd nam e, main -s tr ea m hotel rooms in Englewood. While
th ere are motels along So uth Broadway, the1• are old, no t affilia ted wi th natio nal b rand s, and are not
desig ned or maintained to be sui tabl e for busin ess or vaca ti on travel accom moda tlons.
Th e H o rwath study no t onl y identified th e potential dem and for hotel faci liti es, th ey sugges ted three
loca ti o ns in Englewood w here ih e market migh t su pport hotels. In th eir opinion, th e main areas
th dt would be sui tabl e fo r hotels would be along High, ay 2!15 b etween San ta Fe and Broadway.
Secondary ar eas w here hotels w o uld loca te included al ng Sa nta Fe D rive o r Broa dway near
Highway 285. Th e oth er potentia l hotel areas suggest d by th e H otel Study we re near li ght rai l

After co nfirming a potential market demand for hotel rooms and und ers tanding w here in
Englewood ho tels would be likely to loca te, staff re viewed Ci ty land use regulati ons for ho tels .
When Engl ewood revised land use reg ulatio ns governing lodging in 2004, ho tels we re included in
th e M •B-2 , Hi ghwd)' Commercial Zone but omitt ed from th e Industrial Zones. Pri or to re-•
struc turing th e Ci ty land use regula tions in to the Unified Deve lopmen t Code in 200 4, land t1ses
per mitted in th e com mercia l zo nes we re also permi tt ed in the indu strial zo nes. Cur rently , hotels
are no t perm itted land us es along most of Highway 2B5 o r San ta Fe Drive i n Eng lewood. Neither
are th e\' pe rmitt ed on Broadway w ith in a bl ock of H ig hway 285. Res tated, hotels are not currer,tl y
perm itt ed in loca ti ons where the ma rket wo uld supp ort them .
Fur the r, th e curre nt de finitions lim it th e kinds of ho tels th at are permitted. H otels th at include
ki tchen faci liti es such as "Extended Sta y H otels" are not c urrently permi tt ed in any zo ne district i n

An inves to r in Va lu e Pla ce is in th e due dilige nce ph ase fo r deve loping a hotel in th e 1-1 zo ne
