Castle Rock Municipal Code (CRMC) Updates - Title 17
Body
________________________________________________________________________________
Executive Summary
Over time, Town staff identifies sections of the Castle Rock Municipal Code (CRMC) that are in need of updating, correcting or clarifying. Additionally, Town staff may have recommendations for new sections to address issues that arise or improvements that can be made. Town staff have identified areas of the CRMC which are in need for updates in order to improve clarity and consistency of interpretation, and to bring some sections up to date with recent state law changes. Additionally, staff is also proposing a new industrial zoning district from discussions in 2019 through 2022, as well as updates to in-home daycare and clarification in the Accessory Dwelling Unit chapter.
On March 1, 2022, Town Council directed staff to prepare an ordinance incorporating needed updates to Title 17, including a new industrial zoning district for industrial employment uses. Throughout 2022, staff has identified a few more clarifications and corrections needed for Title 17. This memo outlines these proposed amendments to Title 17 of the CRMC. Town staff will continue to annually review various code sections and bring recommendations for improvements forward to Planning Commission and Town Council as needed.
Please see the attached Staff Memorandum for full details.
