Downtown Vision Plan 2011
The Lafayette Urban Renewal Authority adopted the 2011 Downtown Vision Plan on September 20, 2011. The Vision Plan is a document that sets forth policies for the future of downtown. The Plan is advisory and serves as a guide for public decisions related to development within the downtown area.
Developing a unified vision was a key recommendation from the Community Revitalization Partnership (CRP) evaluation conducted in Lafayette by Downtown Colorado, Inc. in late 2009.
Design a Logo for Downtown Contest
One of the first steps in implementing the Downtown Vision Plan is to create a new Downtown Logo. The city asked graphic designers and artists to submit logo concepts to the City of Lafayette Community Development Department. In March, the more than 50 logos that were received by the city were narrowed to 7 final logos from six designers. In April, the Downtown Action Committee, Lafayette Old Town Association and Lafayette Cultural Arts Commission will provide feedback on the seven logo finalists. The Lafayette Urban Renewal Authority (LURA) is expected to select the new logo in May. The designer of the logo that is ultimately selected by the Lafayette Urban Renewal Authority (LURA) will receive a stipend of $2,300.

Downtown Lafayette has a rich history and is home to a number of cultural offerings including the Peach Festival, Oatmeal Festival, Art Night Out, the Art on the Street rotating sculpture exhibit, Mary Miller Theater, Miner’s Museum, Rocky Mountain Center for Musical Arts, World of Wonder Children’s Museum, wonderful boutique shops, and great restaurants. Building on these strengths will be the cornerstone of future efforts to enliven the Heart of Lafayette and guided the creation of logo submissions for downtown Lafayette.
