In 2002, the Broomfield City Council adopted the Broomfield Heights Neighborhood Plan following an extensive two-year public outreach effort with neighborhood residents and businesses. The purpose of these efforts was to work collaboratively to preserve and enhance the character inherent in Broomfield's oldest residential subdivision.
One action item identified in the Plan was the installation of entry signage and a landscaped median at West 1st Avenue and Emerald Street (see Project Location map). The project was later installed as a City capital improvement project. Over the years, since the sign's installation, there have been mixed reviews expressed on the desirability of the sign in this location.
This sign was recently damaged and the debris has since been removed. Broomfield is now exploring whether to rebuild or repair the sign or to remove it altogether. Broomfield is requesting input from the neighborhood on the preferred course of action.
Residents of Broomfield Heights are asked to complete the short (5 question) survey below regarding the future of this sign. A similar survey was completed in 2021 regarding the monument sign at 1st Avenue and Main Street. Based on community feedback, that monument sign was not rebuilt. This survey is now closed. Thank you for providing your feedback!
