Intent of the Design Review Process
The intent of the design review process at
is to ensure that the proposed projects
and designs are compatible with, and
enhance, the aesthetic intent and design
quality of airport facilities and wayfinding
systems. This document describes the
design review process for airport
facilities and tenant
improvements and the
role the Design Review
Committee (DRC)
plays in that process.

DEN Design Criteria
• Overall Design Aesthetic
• Passenger Facing Elements
• Materials
• Signage
• Circulation
• Lighting
• Landscape
The Design Review Committee will evaluate each design on six criteria to
determine if the design is in line with the DEN Design Principles and other
airport guidelines and standards which are posted on www.flydenver.com.

Boulevard, Denver, CO 80249, unless noted otherwise.
Design Review Meetings
11
Attendance
Attendance at DRC meetings is strongly encouraged for the DEN City Liaison responsible for the project and the applicant seeking DRC approval. The purpose of this requirement is to ensure that the DRC is able to obtain timely answers to their questions regarding the proposed project and to enable all parties to process the approval in a timely manner.
Agenda and Allotted Time Protocols
Staff Presentation: 1-3 minutes
Applicant Presentation: 10 minutes
DRC Discussion and Action: 5-10 minutes
All times will be adjusted depending on the number of items on the agenda.
Set Up
All electronic presentations must be given to the DRC Coordinator a week ahead of time as presentations will be set in the queue prior to the start of the meeting. The City Liaison and design team will wait outside the room until asked to come in.
Design Review Meetings
12
PresentationsAgenda time allocation will be at the discretion
of the DRC Chair and DRC Coordinator.
Allocated presentation times by the
tenant/designer are no more than 10 minutes.
Exceptions may be made at the discretion of
the DRC Chair depending on the nature and
complexity of the project being presented.
Information ItemsInformation items may also be placed on the
DRC agenda and scheduled in increments of a
maximum of 5 minutes and presented by the
DRC City Liaison. These items are not seeking
approval and do not require action by the DRC.
Design Review AgendaThe agenda will be published prior to the
meeting along with presentation materials for
review by the committee prior to the meeting.
After the agenda is published, no additional
items will be added.
Design Review Meetings
13
City Liaison Introduction
City Liaisons give a brief overview of the project, including the purpose, intent and location. The City Liaison should also give background information including brand elements, previous business agreements (RFP language) that is pertinent to design, and a summary of any previous DRC submissions and comments.
Applicant Presentation
Applicant should be prepared to present at the DRC meeting. Supplying the DRC with a complete application and information will avoid unanswered questions and the need for further meetings. Applicants shall refer to DEN’s guidelines posted on www.flydenver.com for design criteria, standards, and guidelines.
Design Review Meetings
14
Design Review Committee Action
The DRC will discuss the presentation with the applicant during the meeting. The verdict will be determined by the DRC with a motion being made and seconded during the meeting, and it shall fall in one of the following categories.
• Approved
• Approved with comments
• Revise and Resubmit
• Rejected
In the week following the meeting, meeting minutes will be sent out to DRC members and to the City Liaisons for distribution to the applicant.
Design Review Meetings: Protocols
15
Review and Approval by Consent
A consent review is when an item is sent out to the committee for review without presentation. Because this process does not allow for discussion, it is rarely a favored option. In order for an item to be considered for consent review, it must meet all of the below criteria. It must also receive permission from the DRC Chair to be considered as a consent item.
Consent Criteria
1. Projects with complete application submissions as determined by the City Liaison.
2. Projects that clearly meet design guidelines with the City Liaison’s recommendation for approval without conditions.
3. No known opposition to the project being proposed. These shall be routine and non-controversial items.
Examples: Approvals of signs which clearly meet design guidelines or Re-submittals of projects that clearly have met DRC comments of previous submissions.
Review By Consent
16
Design Submittal Process
Applicants are required to provide a complete submission application as well as an electronic version (PDF) of the submittal package for the DEN City Liaison to review prior to the final submission to the DRC Coordinator.
City Liaison Review
The DEN City Liaison will verify the submission is complete before final submission to the DRC Coordinator. If items are required that were not submitted by the submittal deadline, the item may not make it onto the agenda for the following week.
Submittal PackageSubmittals shall be electronic except for material boards which are limited to 24” x 36” in size. Submittal components are listed on the following pages.
Submission Requirements
17
The DRC Submission Application
This application is required to be completed for every submittal every time and given to the City Liaison for delivery to the DRC Coordinator. This form is important to track the history of DRC reviews. We will know better where to go when we know where we have been!

21
Following Design Approval
The tenant, or the tenant’s representative, must report any deviation from the final approved design to their DEN City Liaison, which then must be reviewed and approved by the DRC.
Following construction, the City Liaison performs a design-compliance review of the premises to ensure that all elements of the project conform to the DRC-approved design.
In the event the Airport finds elements that do not conform to the final DRC-approved design, the respective DEN City Liaison will contact the applicant in order to rectify the problem.

http://www.flydenver.com/about/administration/environmental_management
• Permitting process can start in the design phase or after the contractor has
been selected.
• Have a designated permitting coordinator on your team.
• Need a Letter of Authorization for the project from the DEN Project Manager
that will designate the type of project, type of review at CPD, and how
permit fees will be collected.
• For larger projects, CPD permitting fees may be paid by DEN directly, so early
coordination is critical to identify requirements. All other permit fees are the
responsibility of the contractor or designers.
DEN Procedures
6
• Coordinate with CPD DEN Coordinator to set up a pre‐submittal meeting with CPD, WMD, and DFD reviewers Can be at the design phase with architects and engineers or record Include general contractor if they are on board Have a preliminary schedule of phasing, submittals, and construction dates

• Same‐Day, Walk‐through Review (New Procedures in mid‐ to late January 2018 for DEN Projects Only) CPD DEN Coordinator will determine the type of review that will be needed for
the project depending on complexity. Goal is to get more projects through the same‐day, walk‐through review. Only applies to architectural, structural, mechanical, plumbing, and electrical reviews. Review type should be identified in the Letter of Authorization. No longer determined by construction value of project.
Contractors need to go to the permit counter and ask for DEN walk‐through. A number will be issued and you will be directed to a separate waiting area. The CPD DEN coordinator will come get you to take you to the DEN review room where all disciplines will review your project.
Once approved, the contractor must show their contractor card, company credit card, or company check for ID and then they can pull their permits at cashiering.
Approval of fire and wastewater plan is the same CPD process at this time. Contractors go through the CPD permit counter.

• Log‐In Review: More complex construction projects may be required to be logged in for review. Instructions for online log‐in appointments are located at:
https://www.denvergov.org/content/denvergov/en/denver‐development‐services/appointments.html
One plan log‐in per appointment or, if fire log‐in, two projects are allowed per appointment. Two appointments allowed per day.
All log‐ins require the Letter of Authorization and all forms identified earlier. Important: DEN projects will not be logged in without a copy of the Letter of Authorization!! You will be turned away.
DEN log‐in procedures may be changing in the near future. The DEN PMs will be notified of new procedures.
Review timeframe for DEN projects is currently 4 weeks. Resubmittal reviews will be 2 weeks each.
Plan Pick‐up process requires appointment as well following process in link above.
Walk‐up appointments available for log‐in and plan pick‐up, but you could have a significant wait time at the permit counter.

• New development in Denver is subject to a fee ranging from $0.40 to
$1.70/sq. ft., depending on project type.
• Every project logging in for a building permit must submit application for
affordable housing fee.
• The affordable housing fee is assessed based on new square footage only (not
including parking) and must be paid before receiving a building permit.
• The fee does not apply to trade‐specific permits (mechanical, electrical, fire).
• If your project is not adding any new square footage, or if you already know
your project will qualify for one of the allowed exceptions, you must still
submit the application at log‐in before receiving a fee waiver.
• The application is not needed for projects eligible for a same‐day, walk‐
through review.

• State of Colorado Division of Oil and Public Safety (OPS) Conveyance Registration and Inspections All elevators, escalators, APM (i.e., the train at DEN), and other regulated
conveyances located in Colorado be registered with OPS. Registration fees for each conveyance is required to be paid to OPS by contractor. All conveyance contractors, mechanics, and inspectors
must maintain a current license issued by OPS to ensure that the installation, alteration and maintenance of conveyances are completed by qualified personnel.
• DFD Permits and Inspections In the City and County of Denver, DFD permits conveyances for the State, conducts
inspections, and issues Certificates of Operation for each device. Conveyances must be registered with OPS before plans are submitted to
DFD for review. The contractor will be responsible for paying for the first Certificate of
Operation permit fees for each conveyance. DEN will pay for the annual permit fees after that.
