Neighbor raises setback, height and scale concerns for proposed 500,000‑square‑foot warehouse plan near Arvada residential buildings
A nearby resident told commissioners on Sept. 30 that a proposed site development plan for three large warehouses at 5950 McIntyre would be physically intrusive and insufficiently buffered from adjacent housing.

Lynn Clemens said the proposal includes three buildings totaling about 500,000 square feet with 144 truck bays and building heights of about 44 feet. She said public marketing materials show the buildings sited roughly 50 feet from the property line and that the developer’s setback would place the building only about 7 feet from the start of residential structures when measured on her neighborhood side. “This building only has to be 50 feet from their boundary line. And I am shocked that the county doesn’t have more regulations or resolutions as far as a setback goes for an industrial complex like this next to a residential area,” Clemens told the board.

Clemens said an engineer’s rendering shows the massing and proximity to her second‑floor balcony and expressed concern about the resulting view and scale. County staff did not take action at the hearing; commissioners and staff acknowledged the comment and advised her how to submit the materials for staff review.

Ending: The comment was recorded during the public‑comment portion and will be part of the public record for any future land‑use proceedings related to the McIntyre site.
