Key Talking Points

• Gambles with water scarcity

• Builds directly in a floodway 

• Depresses property values and destroys rural character 

About the Bellbern Project

KB Homes is attempting to build 124 duplexes and commercial space on land zoned Rural Residential at the intersection of Pine Drive & Lincoln Avenue.

Where & What

  • 📍 Located at Pine Drive & Lincoln Avenue intersection
  • 🏘️ 124 duplexes plus commercial space proposed
  • 🌾 Currently zoned Rural Residential
  • ⚠️ Violates Douglas County Comprehensive Master Plan

The Problems

  • 🚗 Increases crashes at already dangerous intersection
  • 🏫 Overburdens schools, fire, and parks beyond capacity
  • 💧 Relies on speculative water supply in drought-prone Colorado
  • 🌊 Builds in floodway, risking neighboring properties

Why We Must Stop This Project

🚦

Traffic Safety

Pine & Lincoln is already one of Parker's most dangerous intersections. This development will add 1,000+ daily car trips, making crashes inevitable.

"Traffic is already unsafe. This will make Pine & Lincoln worse."

🏫

Schools & Services

Our schools, fire departments, and parks are already at capacity. Adding hundreds more residents will overwhelm these essential services.

"Our schools and services can't handle hundreds more residents."

💧

Water & Flooding

Building in a floodway with speculative water promises during Colorado's ongoing drought is irresponsible and dangerous.

"You can't engineer away a floodway."

📋

CMP Violation

The Douglas County Comprehensive Master Plan requires 1 home per 2.5 acres for non-urban areas. This project completely ignores these rules.

"Don't let the County gut its own planning rules."

🏠

Property Values

Dense duplexes are incompatible with surrounding rural neighborhoods.

" Property value will drop after these duplexes are built."

🌱

Community Character

This development destroys the rural character that makes our community special, replacing open space with dense housing.

"Protect the character that makes Parker unique."
