“Green Roof ” ballot initiative

passed with almost 55% of the
vote. While AAMD made strides
with Association supported
candidates winning in Lakewood,
Westminster, Wheat Ridge and
other places, the theme of the
evening was certainly anti-devel-
opment and anti-President Trump.
Denver’s G reen Roof mandate
will now take effect January 1 and
will apply to all new developments

and existing structures needing
roof replacements or major
renovations. As many Denver City
Councilmembers have stated, this
is problematic to a City struggling
with housing affordability. City
Council has the ability to amend
this citizen initiated ordinance
after six months. It is the position
of AAMD to seek common sense
changes to this law.
Despite these setbacks,
AAMD remains committed to
protecting our industry by
supporting candidates and issues
that reflect the mission of the
Association.
