The Eiber Neighborhood Association (ENA) is committed to serving the beautiful, vibrant and growing Eiber neighborhood of Lakewood, Colorado.
Historic Eiber Neighborhood in Lakewood, Colorado is bounded by Colfax, Wadsworth, 6th Ave, and Oak St. It is named for George E. Eiber, a local poultry rancher of the early 20th century. We are a warm, welcoming and inclusive community of neighbors, and would love to get to know you!
ENA Zoning Ordinance Position
Updated Mar. 18, 2026
The Eiber Neighborhood Association opposes Lakewood’s proposed zoning ordinance because it:
Conflicts with adopted plans — It contradicts the Eiber Neighborhood Plan and the Envision Lakewood 2040 Comprehensive Plan’s call for area-based planning.
Lacks neighborhood protections & mandates — It risks displacement and predatory gentrification while failing to include any requirements or mandates for developers to provide affordable housing.
Imposes unnecessary universal rezoning — It eliminates key single-family land-use distinctions despite Eiber already meeting state housing goals for transit areas.
Impacts livability and sustainability — Increased density without compatibility safeguards may strain parking, infrastructure, property compatibility, and environmental resilience.
Take Action: Protect Eiber’s Future
Lakewood’s proposed zoning changes are a "one-size-fits-all" solution that ignores the unique character of our neighborhood. We need housing solutions that actually work for residents, not just developers. The current proposal provides no mandates for affordable housing and ignores the progress Eiber has already made in meeting state goals.
