A new Echo Suites Extended Stay Hotel has been proposed for construction in Lafayette, which would be the city's second hotel.
Developer Hix Snedeker is proposing a 124-room hotel, requesting a modification to the city's 35-foot height limit to allow for a nearly 50-foot building.
The proposed location is just west of U.S. 287 and south of Arapahoe Road, near the growing Silo neighborhood.
However, nearby residents are urging the city's leadership to reject the proposal, citing concerns about the hotel's location.
The application is currently under review by city staff, which could recommend it to the Lafayette Planning Commission.
No comment from the residents or the developer is available at this time.
