The purpose of the LDC Issues Identification and Annotated Outline (Code Assessment) is to establish a framework for the LDC update. The Code Assessment is focused on:

  1. Preliminary issue spotting,
  2. Identifying potential regulatory approaches to address the issues identified, and
  3. Creating an organizational framework to ensure that the code drafting process is comprehensive.

The Code Assessment will not be revised following community input on the issues and options presented; instead, detailed drafting approaches and responses to community-based suggestions will be incorporated into the LDC drafting process and reflected in the follow-up discussion with each draft of the LDC. Community input will be welcome throughout the project and will be requested as part of the project drafting milestones.

Commenting is available until October 1, 2024.

Question
I have a question about zoning districts. We are in an unincorporated rural area of the county so we do not have any one person or group of people who are responsible for making certain our tax dollars are spent for their intended purpose. One major concern at this time is our fire protection district. I have been told that the City of Colorado Springs intends to annex a 10 mile wide strip along hwy #94 as city property. Is this a possibility? If not, what is your recommendation for correcting problems that currently exist within our fire protection district?

I live in Ellicott where we have a 10.75 acre community park that is owned by The Ellicott Bee Hive a 501c3 organization. We would love to see improvements to our park which is funded by donations. Our eventual plan is to build a community center on this property. Please consider this in Rural Center planning.

This is the reason that we should have a maximum regulation. This community has a problem with our impervious surfaces and runoff.

This would be helpful.

There needs to be an R-T (10000) or so, there are entire neighborhoods in Cascade that "Need" a BOA application to do anything to their property.

Suggestion
I would love to see F-5, RR-5, A-5, and R-T combined into one 5-acre minimum district with different (Character) overlays. Having F-5 turn into an RR-5 or something else with a forestry preservation overlay would make a big difference to some of our citizen groups in Black Forest.

Can this be written to apply administrative updates to the ever-changing state and federal mandates?

These would probably read easier "justified."

Identification

Answer
Clarification from the Project Team: This district is intended to identify PUBLIC open space, like Black Forest Section 16, Paint Mines Interpretive Park, and Bear Creek Regional Park. Currently, public open space in El Paso County is located in other zoning districts instead of a dedicated district. Having a zoning district specifically for public open space will make it more clear where public open space is located and allow the County to create unique standards for these areas.
