"Urban Renewal" -- Or Something Better? The anticipated reauthorization of EPURA is a perfect time for review, fine- tuning, improvements and renewal in general. One aspect worth looking at is a new name, one which would better communicate the Commission's value proposition to the community without the dated and negative connotations of"urban renewal." A name change could be part of a package of changes which will help up-date and refresh the image of EPURA at a time when we will be in the public eye more than usual. At least eight (8) of the approximately 38 "urban renewal" authorities in the state do not use that term. They are: Edgewater Redevelopment Authority Federal Heights Redevelopment Authority Central City Redevelopment Agency Lakewood Reinvestment Authority Rangely Development Agency Thornton Development Authority Littleton Riverfront Authority Westminster Economic Development Authority The word that best describes EPURA's work is improvement. That is the word we use in our publications and news releases to describe our value to the community -- the 26 projects ($18 million) we have commissioned to further enhance Estes Park as a place to live, work and visit. Who is against improvement? Some possibilities are: Estes Park Improvement Agency - EPIA Estes Park Improvement Commission - EPIC Estes Park Reinvestment Authority - EPRA.
