Location: Originally included in the Gold Hill Mesa URA, the Gold Hill Mesa Commercial Area Urban Renewal Area is located to the northwest of the existing URA.  The site is generally bounded on the north by U. S. Highway 24 and Fountain Creek, on the west by South 21st Street, on the south by The Villa de Mesa Townhome community and on the east by the A-1 Village Mobile Home Park and the wooded area to its south.
 
Plan Goals:  The vision for the area is to create a high-quality retail center that will serve the Gold Hill Mesa residents as well as the west and southwest neighborhoods of Colorado Springs.  The site of the old Golden Cycle gold processing plant contains contaminated soil as well as a substantial amount of other refuse materials that were dumped on the site in the past.  Mitigation of the contaminants and removal of unsuitable debris will be completed as part of the development.  Public improvements to roads and drainage improvements to Fountain Creek will also be accomplished by the project.
 

Current Status:  The Gold Hill Mesa Commercial URA was formed as an active URA by City Council on June 23, 2015.  Due to several development and timing factors the project was never able to be realized.  An application to form a new Urban Renewal District was accepted by the CSURA board on September 22, 2021.  The new district will be comprised of approximately 31 acres of residential (attached/detached single family dwellings), approximately 16 acres of commercial area and approximately 44 acres of open space.  The executive team is working with a consulting team on the draft plan for the new Gold Hill Mesa Commercial URA which is expected to be formed in 2023. ​
