A Letter from Ramey:

The opening of the West Rail on April 25 and 26 is rapidly approaching.   The "13th Avenue Lite Rail" project which is now called the "W Rail" has been in the making for nearly 20 years.

The W Rail will change Lakewood in some dramatic and spectacular ways.  We can anticipate an invigorated economy on Wadsworth Blvd, West Colfax, Simms Street, the Federal Center and Union Boulevard.  Frankly, the whole of Lakewood will feel an economic boost.  Now is the time to embrace the W Rail as we celebrate new beginnings and possibilities.

At the same time, with new businesses and more housing comes substantial change.  We will all want to preserve the Lakewood we love – the Lakewood that attracted so many of us to this city and held us here.  Maintaining our quality of life is up to all of us.  Neighborhood and station security is already being addressed by the city and the RTD Board.

We will be able to go places more easily, and we will have more options as unused retail/commercial spaces fill up.  But, there will be growing pains as we learn how to change old patterns.  Share your thoughts on what is good and what can be improved by coming to one of my town hall meetings listed under Upcoming Events.  Thank you for taking an interest in Lakewood municipal government.

Sincerely,
Ramey Johnson
Ward 1 City Councilor
