Contract Control Number: OEDEV-201843292-00 OEDEV-202055397 (amendment contract number)
Vendor/Contractor Name (including any “DBA”): Denver Housing Authority (The Housing Authority of the City and County of Denver)
Type and Scope of services to be performed:
This proposed contract provides a Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) loan for $750,000 to the Denver Housing Authority to pay contractors other consultants to support the development and construction of a unique food market, called GROW Market. The project has been designed to provide the benefits of a quick, accessible grocer and basic foods store while also focusing on workforce training and development through DHA’s workforce and community initiatives department in the Sun Valley neighborhood. The project meets HUD’s national objective of providing benefits available to all residents of a particular area where at least 51% of residents are low and moderate-income persons.
The contract amendment is necessary as the original contract dates for its execution could not be met due to circumstances beyond the city or contractor’s control-namely, the COVID-19 pandemic. The original contract conclusion date was August 31, 2020. This amendment will allow adequate time for the contract to be completed, establishing an end date of March 31, 2121.
The GROW Market will be located within the first floor commercial space at Sun Valley’s Phase 2 affordable housing development. Phase 2, or Gateway, is located at 10th & Decatur St. Decatur Street provides a direct connect to the light rail station to the north, and 10th Ave. will directly connect to a new riverfront park. Phase 2 is a highly visible corner and key gateway into Sun Valley.
