The Denver City Council approved a second amendment to a land exchange agreement with Allied Waste Systems of Colorado, LLC. This action extends the closing date for the transaction to December 31, 2025. The original agreement facilitates a land swap where Denver International Airport (DEN) will exchange a 25.33-acre parcel in Adams County for an 18-acre parcel owned by Allied on Tower Road in Commerce City. The exchange is valued on a dollar-for-dollar basis, confirmed by a third-party appraisal, and involves no monetary exchange. This extension allows both parties more time to finalize the strategic exchange.
