Executive Summary
The Executive Committee’s primary goal was to review the proposed package of investments projects from each subcommittee
and provide a recommendation to the Mayor as to which projects should move forward in the 2017 GO Bond. The Executive
Committee was successful in meeting this goal. This document summarizes the process by which the Executive Committee
arrived at their final recommendation to the Mayor, which includes approximately $749M in capital project investments. This
recommendation was unanimously supported by Executive Committee members. A tabular summary and corresponding map of
the final recommendations are provided in Appendix A and B, respectively.
The Executive Committee was comprised of 12 community members, which included: a chair, two co-chairs, five subcommittee
chairs, five community appointments and Denver City Council President. The five subcommittees included: Transportation and
Mobility, Parks and Recreation, Arts and Culture, Safety Facilities, and City-owned Facilities. Committee volunteers were from a
diverse range of backgrounds and had a proven history of leadership in Denver.
The Executive Committee met ten times between mid-March and early June 2017. Their meetings were held at either the City
and County Building or the Wellington Webb Municipal Building and were open to the public. Each meeting lasted between two
to four hours and began with 15 or more minutes of public testimony. Collectively, committee volunteers held over 50 meetings,
spending more than 90 hours discussing projects and countless hours preparing for each meeting to help identify the final list
of recommended projects that should move forward to the Mayor.
The Executive Committee initiated their process by reviewing summary documents for all projects that were under consideration
in the 2017 GO Bond, along with foundational materials regarding GO bonds, equity, sustainability, and fiscal responsibility.
Based on the foundational materials provided, the Executive Committee developed guiding principles for which projects would
be evaluated. Subcommittee chairs provided presentations regarding their subcommittee’s recommendations. Surveys and
keypad polling were then used to help support their deliberation and final recommendation.
Public engagement has played a central role throughout the GO bond process. The city began the GO bond process in 2016 by
engaging the Denver community in a conversation about the enhancements they want in their neighborhoods and throughout
the city. With six public meetings, a map-based online tool, City Council engagement and comment cards located at libraries and
recreation centers, the city received more than 3,000 investment ideas. This input, along with the City’s six-year capital plan
(Elevate 2020), was used to develop the foundational project list that each subcommittee used to begin their evaluation
process. Projects listed in Elevate 2020 are a culmination of on-going input received from the public at community meetings,
through email, written comments, and input from city agencies and City Council. During the stakeholder committee phase of the
GO bond process, several hundred more emails from the public were received in support of various projects and each
stakeholder committee meeting featured a public comment period.
Executive Committee Process
The Executive Committee undertook a thoughtful process that occurred between March 16, 2017 and June 12, 2017 to
accomplish the goal of providing a recommendation to the Mayor in early June as to which projects they thought should move
forward in the 2017 GO Bond. The initial focus of the Executive Committee was to receive progress updates from the
subcommittees which helped develop the schedule, initial ideas for the deliberation process, guiding principles, and establish
the foundational need for a GO bond. The Executive Committee then transitioned into reviewing project summary material for all
projects and receiving presentations from each subcommittee. The process was concluded with two deliberation meetings. The
Executive Committee met a total of ten times, which consisted of the following schedule and topics:
• March 16, 2017– Orientation and Kick-off
• April 11, 2017 – Updates from Subcommittees, Process Overview
• April 25, 2017 – Updates from Subcommittees, GO Bond Mechanics, Schedule
• May 4, 2017 – Updates from Subcommittees, Presentation (Equity, Sustainability, Fiscal Responsibility)
• May 17, 2017 – Deliberation Process, Guiding Principles, Subcommittee Presentation City-Owned Facilities
• May 18, 2017 – Subcommittee Presentations: Arts and Culture, Parks and Recreation
• May 22, 2017 – Subcommittee Presentations: Transportation and Mobility, Safety Facilities
• May 31, 2017 – Deliberation
• June 2, 2017 – Final Deliberation and Recommendation
• June 12, 2017 – Presentation of Final Recommendation to Mayor
Evaluation Criteria
The Executive Committee utilized the following agreed upon guiding principles to help evaluate the proposed project packages
from the Subcommittees and additional support material provided by city staff and the public.
• Fiscal Responsibility – Does overall proposed package keep Denver a great city? Does the package ensure current
assets are available and usable?
• Project Readiness and Feasibility – Does the project package include projects that are feasible, defined, and ready to
be implemented with manageable risk within a five-year timeframe? Does the overall proposed package provide the
opportunity to scale and/or phase?
• Sustainability – Does the overall package support the city’s sustainability goals (2020 Goals, Executive Orders, etc.)?
• Leveraging Opportunities – Does the proposed package include projects that help further a previous investment or are
proven to be a lost opportunity if project is not approved? Can this project be financially assisted by private resources
(P3) or the leveraging of existing city assets?
• Broader Community Input – Does overall proposed package incorporate public input, specifically project ideas received
during the 2016 public engagement process via website, comment cards, email, letter, public comment, and/or
communication made directly to subcommittees or from City Council?
• Equity – Does the proposed package balance social, economic, health, and geographic considerations?
Deliberation Process
The Executive Committee utilized a series of meetings to reach their final recommendation that began with presentations from
each subcommittee, which was followed by deliberative discussion. Potential projects were further discussed at subsequent
meetings with the Executive Committee arriving at their final unanimously approved package of recommendations on June 2nd.
To help prepare for their deliberations, each Executive Committee member was provided with the following materials to support
their decision making.
• City staff provided the Executive Committee with background material on each project that was under consideration for
funding in the 2017 GO Bond, which included: summaries of project scope, need/benefits, potential costs, readiness,
potential financial leverage opportunities, source of the project (public, city agency, council, etc.).
• Subcommittee chairs provided detailed presentations to the Executive Committee supporting each subcommittee’s
recommended package of investments. See Appendix C for a tabular summary of the subcommittee recommendations.
• Staff provided additional follow up project summary materials to the Executive Committee on projects where the Executive
Committee sought clarification
• City staff provided presentations to the Executive Committee regarding: GO Bond Mechanics, Sustainability, Neighborhood
Equity Indices, and Fiscal Responsibility which helped inform the Executive Committee’s Guiding Principles (see Evaluation
Criteria section).
• Executive Committee members were continuous provided with input received through the GO Bond email address and
materials provided by the public in person at the meeting throughout the process.
In advance of the May 31st initial deliberation meeting, each Executive Committee member was asked to select projects they
believed best met the city’s needs based on the summary materials provided and subsequent meeting discussions and
presentations. To help facilitate the project selection process, Executive Committee members targeted $750M for their project
funding recommendations. This amount provided room for the city to retain some capacity for program contingency, similar to
the 2007 Better Denver Bond program. In addition, this also provided room for the Mayor and City Council to continue to
balance citywide project needs while building upon the external stakeholder committee process.
The results of the project selections made by Executive Committee members identified general alignment on projects that
totaled approximately $940M, which was discussed at the May 31st deliberation meeting. As a committee, they agreed to move
projects forward that received five or more votes. To help bring the $940M closer to the $750M target, the Executive Committee
requested that all projects be further reviewed by city staff to identify if any could be phased or removed (based on further
analysis of readiness/feasibility), which was the basis of the discussion for the June 2 deliberation meeting.
During the June 2 deliberation meeting, Executive Committee members discussed at length the adjustments that were made to
each project per their request at the previous meeting. Executive Committee members then recommended a series of additional
adjustments with multiple follow ups from city staff and representatives from city-owned institutions. After clarification was
provided, the Executive Committee utilized keypad polling to select projects, refine the proposed funding levels, and arrive at
their final recommendation of $749M, which includes approximately $193M in investments that will be distributed throughout
the entire city via programmatic allocations (e.g., sidewalks/bikes, neighborhood park & recreation center improvements, etc.).
The Executive Committee concluded with an unanimously approval of the recommended package of investments (projects) to
move forward to the Mayor. The Executive Committee presented their recommendations to the Mayor on June 12, 2017.

• This draft list represents prioritized projects from each of the five stakeholder subcommittees who reviewed each project over the course of two months. Each subcommittee had their own process
of deliberation and prioritization. No projects from the initial list informed by the public, Council, city agencies and the city’s six-year plan have been removed at this point. The Executive Committee
is responsible for reviewing and refining the draft list of projects from all subcommittees and recommending a package of investments to move forward to the Mayor in early June.
• All materials herein are working drafts and are subject to change as the 2017 GO Bond process proceeds, including scope and cost estimates as more detailed information is developed.
