Housing & Neighborhood Revitalization Program

The Housing and Neighborhood Revitalization division administers all operations of the Arvada Housing Authority.

We are also responsible for implementing the following City goals and objectives:

Arvada will be a community with broad quality housing choices relative to cost, design, maintenance and location to meet the needs of a demographically diverse population. Where appropriate, Arvada will encourage pedestrian-oriented neo-traditional community design concepts and recognize the diverse nature of neighborhoods in the development process, especially with regards to development requirements.

Objectives:

• Encourage quality mixed-use development that combines residential, commercial and office uses and provides an appropriate dispersed mix of residential housing types at different affordability levels.
• Strive to stabilize and improve Arvada's existing housing stock, neighborhoods, and related infrastructure with special emphasis on code enforcement and outreach to property owners and tenants.
• The City will develop and implement programs to assist low-to moderate-income home buyers.
• Encourage residential housing options in the Olde Town Area and City of Arvada to insure long-term vitality and stability.
