Five Projects. Five Years. One Penny. 

In 2013, Commerce City voters approved a 1-percent sales and use tax increase for the construction, operations, and maintenance of new parks, recreation and road projects. The ballot measure was a result of a two-year, community-driven process to identify how to implement programs and services that address growing population needs, achieve vision, and build a better Commerce City.

The ballot measure identified five specific projects that would be delivered to residents by Jan. 1, 2019:

1. Three new neighborhood parks

• Fronterra Park: Completed Aug. 25, 2015
• Turnberry Park: Completed Aug. 15, 2016
• Villages East Park: Completed Sept. 22, 2016

2. New outdoor leisure pool

• Paradice Island at Pioneer Park: Completed July 10, 2015

3. New recreation center (Bison Ridge Recreation Center)

• Bison Ridge Recreation Center: Completed May 25, 2018 

4. Additions to the existing recreation center (Eagle Pointe Recreation Center)

• Eagle Pointe Recreation Center: Completed December 31, 2018

5. Widening of Tower Road

• Tower-Peña Ramp and Widening: Completed October 29, 2018

The city delivered these voter-approved projects on schedule and within budget, with the following goals in mind:

• Build high quality facilities to lower their long-term maintenance costs
• Spend taxpayer dollars wisely and transparently
• Complete projects on time
