With her specialized focus on procurement, construction, financing, and operations and maintenance, Tracy brings a wealth of knowledge to the table.
Her proficiency in navigating various project delivery methods, such as public-private partnerships (P3 / PPP) and design-build, and experience advising project owners and contractors during the design and construction process and in disputes, underscores her versatility and capability to offer comprehensive guidance at every stage of a project’s lifecycle.

Tracy provided legal counsel to DEN on many aspects of its operations, from compliance with Federal, state and municipal requirements to procurements and general contracting. She also advised DEN on its capital improvement program and individual construction projects exceeding $1 billion, such as the termination, workout and re-procurement of the Great Hall Project, DEN’s Concourse Expansion program, and Federally-funded baggage renovation project.
Before joining the legal team at DEN, Tracy was a member of the City Attorney’s Office Municipal Operations Section, where she advised other Denver agencies and elected officials. With a colleague, Tracy established and led a litigation group focused on enforcing City contracts and defending against legal challenges to municipal decisions such as rezonings and other land use matters and represented the City in high-profile court cases, including disputes over golf course renovations and elections. Her advisory role extended to zoning and land use, code enforcement, and contractual matters. Before the City, Tracy was an attorney at law firms representing public and private entities in construction, insurance coverage, real estate, and land use matters.
