DENVER – If you’ve driven through Denver’s RiNo Arts district, you may have noticed the tiny home village near 38th and Walnut Street moved about 200-feet closer to Blake.
Itap official name is the Beloved Community Village.
A 180-day relocation requirement by the City of Denver forced the $25,000 move.
“The requirement is presently the least sustainable aspect of our model,” Cole Chandler said. He’s a member of the Colorado Village Collaborative.
“It’s costing us about $25,000 and it is displacing villagers,” Chandler added. “That money has fortunately been raised by the community. We had a very successful fundraiser last year called, ‘Move Along to Here,’ and we garnered about $20,000 worth of pledges from the community that evening.”
Chandler credited the City of Denver for stepping up and giving nearly $10,000 more for the move.
