What is Prop 123 Interest Form – Denver, CO?
The Prop 123 Interest Form, printed by the city as the Proposition 123 Fast Track Interest Form & Required Information, is the Denver Development Services form a project team completes to show it is interested in the Prop 123 Fast Track expedited review.
The form belongs to the concept stage of the city's site development plan (SDP) process. It collects the applicant's name, phone number and email address, the project name and address, the total number of units, the number of market rate units, the number of income-restricted units (IRUs), the proposed Area Median Income (AMI) of the IRUs (or the average AMI) and the product type: rental, sale or other, such as Residential Care, Assisted Living or Shelter.
The form states the eligibility requirement: projects must be 50% affordable at 60% AMI for rental or 100% AMI for for-sale.
It also warns that Fast Track is not a single review. The program requires a second concept review with more detailed submittal documents based on the project's specific entitlements. Before that second review of the Concept Plan, the project must have a signed Affordable Housing Plan (AHP) from the Department of Housing Stability (HOST). The AHP locks in the affordability commitments so the project meets the minimum affordability requirements.
The city's Concept Plans page lists this form next to the Concept Submittal Checklist under "What to submit". It is a separate document from the Concept Application itself.
Who needs to file Prop 123 Interest Form – Denver, CO?
Project teams that want the Prop 123 Fast Track expedited review complete this form. The form asks them to submit it with their initial Concept Application in E-Permits.
The form sets one eligibility test: projects must be 50% affordable at the following AMIs, 60% AMI for rental and 100% AMI for for-sale. The form's lines for the number of income-restricted units and their proposed AMI (or average AMI) let the city see how the project meets that test.
Projects that are not residential rental or for-sale housing can still describe themselves on the form: the product type line accepts "other", with examples such as Residential Care, Assisted Living and Shelter.
The form is only for projects interested in Fast Track. A project that does not want the expedited review does not need it; the form says it is for projects "interested in utilizing" Fast Track. Applicants who do use Fast Track must also obtain a signed AHP from HOST before the second review of the Concept Plan.
When to file Prop 123 Interest Form – Denver, CO
Submit the form at the start of the process, together with your initial Concept Application in E-Permits, if your project is interested in the Prop 123 Fast Track expedited review. The form prints no separate due date.
Later steps carry their own timing. Fast Track requires a second concept review with more detailed submittal documents, and the project must obtain a signed Affordable Housing Plan (AHP) from the Department of Housing Stability (HOST) before that second review of the Concept Plan. If right-of-way dedication is required, the form says title work must be submitted with the second concept application.

- Going to the second review of the Concept Plan without a signed Affordable Housing Plan (AHP) from HOST.
