The city’s Web page on transit-oriented development (TOD) has been updated to include the Powerpoint slide show presented last Wednesday night at the kickoff meeting for 38th and Inca station area planning. It’s in PDF form. If you have any feedback about the meeting, the process, or the current state of the plan, leave a comment here. Judy’s reading.

It’s a busy week for deadlines; get your homework turned in on time, ev’ybody:

• Requests for a free tree from Denver Digs Trees are due Thursday, January 31. Since 1990, this program has passed out more than 30,000 trees for planting on parking strips and public rights-of-way. Lots of tree varieties are available; I recommend the Linden (we have one, it’s gorgeous).
• January 31 (this Thursday) is the last day to take advantage of Denver Parks and Rec’s membership special — pay for 6 months, get an additional 3 months free.
• A week from today, February 4 (ok, so that’s next week), is the last day to order free vegetable seeds from Denver Urban Gardens. While you’re at it, now is a good time to sign up for a plot in one of the city’s 70 community gardens.
• Finally, if you’re interested in becoming a member of the new Create Denver Advisory Committee (CDAC), your nominating form is due Wednesday, January 30 (form available online at the preceding link). Create Denver, an initiative of the Denver Office of Cultural Affairs, supports artists, musicians, filmmakers, and the venues that features their work (galleries, clubs, etc.).
