The Colorado Eagles of the American Hockey League proposed development of an 8,600 seat arena with three community ice sheets in Greeley<\/a>, Colorado. The arena complex would be one of the key features of a 5,000 acre development project.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to an article written by Christine Kapperman for 99.9 The Point,<\/em> “the Greeley City Council met, commented and voted unanimously to have the city explore the viability of the vision {Colorado Eagles owner Martin} Lind hopes will come to life at U.S. 34 and County Road 17.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The larger development project, which is called “The West Side Project” in documents presented to the city council, also calls for the construction of a larger entertainment district, retail stores, at least one hotel, and “mixed-income and affordable housing.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Colorado Eagles currently play in Loveland at Blue Arena<\/a>. Greeley is located about half an hour east of Loveland by car, and 75 minutes by car northeast of Denver.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Some people on social media questioned the idea of building such a significant project in Greeley. The population of Greeley was 108,795<\/a> according to the 2020 Census. However, Greeley is growing rapidly, in part because water is more available than in some areas of Northern Colorado. This is a serious concern in some parts of Colorado east of the Front Range.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Greeley is also a regional center of the livestock industry. There are quite a few cattle ranches and businesses that serve that industry in the Greeley area. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
