Longmont City Council reviews transit development and annexation plans
What happened
The Longmont City Council is reviewing a development agreement for the 1st & Main Transit Center, which would include approximately 246 apartments and commercial space. This agreement, made with Main Street Tebo LLC, requires construction to begin before December 2027 and includes a city reimbursement of up to $600,000 for public improvements. The council will also hold a final vote on the annexation of 8513 St. Vrain Road, a 4.1-acre parcel planned for 27 to 44 homes.

Why it matters
The development agreement stipulates that tax revenue generated by the new project would help support the city’s certificates of participation financing for the transit facility. The council is also considering the annexation ordinance, which was previously advanced 6-1, despite opposition from Mayor Pro Tem Sean McCoy.
