This $500 million, 5,500-acre proposal, to be called WorldPark, would be located east of E-470 and south of Interstate 70. The plan is subject to approval by Arapahoe County and faces a contentious public hearing before its Planning Commission. The developers are moving quickly ahead of the growth-limiting ballot initiative 256, up for a statewide vote this fall.
