Call for input on 760 W. Baseline Rd

Take the survey before February 9th

In my January 22nd post The Lowdown - what's happening downtown and on Baseline I wrote about 760 W. Baseline, at the southeast corner of Carr, owned by the Lafayette Urban Renewal Authority (LURA).

Need more of a visual about where this is? It used to be storage units.

Plans to sell the property for development are in the works. In my previous newsletter I gave you background on the process and the business under consideration as the future owner of the property, 4Corners Hair Boutique.

LURA is asking for public input on this project via a survey before entering into negotiations and officially considering it during a future meeting. The deadline to complete the survey is February 9, 2025.

From the Lafayette Listens website:

We are excited to share that the subcommittee has selected 4Corners Hair Boutique as the preferred future owner of the property. 4Corners Hair Boutique, a minority- and veteran-owned business owned by a Lafayette resident, envisions creating a community-based hub that combines barbering services with opportunities to uplift others. The site will include a barbershop alongside a rental space for other small businesses or nonprofits. 4Corners runs a training program for aspiring barbers and stylists, who have the opportunity to apprentice on-site, preparing for careers in the growing barber and hair styling industry. Additionally, the project will embrace sustainability practices that support green and healthy building standards.

As a long-time Boulder County resident and business owner, the proposer has witnessed the transformative impact of providing employment and mentorship to individuals at all stages of their careers. This project aims to help other small businesses and individuals thrive while providing education and career pathways for those who may not succeed in traditional settings. By acquiring this property, the proposer seeks to invest directly in the Lafayette community, creating a hub for growth, connection, and opportunity.

Here’s the survey it’s very short.

Want to offer more support? Awesome!
