Negotiations between city officials and the master developer, Broomfield Town Square Alliance, stalled over commitments regarding affordable housing, parking, and lake design. The developer subsequently withdrew requests to extend the site-development plan and the redevelopment and reimbursement agreement. The developer stated that the changes requested by the city council were no longer feasible and that the team is recalibrating its approach.
