Executive Summary
JRW Family Limited Partnership LLLP is proposing to annex and rezone the 535 acres known as Pine Canyon. The applicant proposes to zone the property as a planned development (PD), and is seeking approval of the Pine Canyon Planned Development Plan
and Zoning Regulations (Attachment C).
The Pine Canyon PD proposes to allow 1,800 dwelling units for a gross density of 3.37 dwelling units per acre (du/ac), a maximum of 600,000 square feet (s.f.) of commercial and light-industrial uses and approximately 178 acres, 32% of the site, of open space and park land.
Key Benefits of Proposed Annexation and Zoning
• Allows Town determination of growth patterns and development standards
• Development makes key road connections, improving circulation and emergency response
• Development would pay impact fees per residential unit or commercial square foot constructed
• Development would pay all system development fees, including Castle Rock Water’s renewable water fee
• Development would tie into Castle Rock Water's existing wastewater treatment system
• Development would also meet all of the Town’s water conservation standards
• Provides 32% Open Space and Public Land Dedication
• Preserves cultural resources on the property
• Makes regional trail connections
• Provides a buffer on southern edge to existing Castle Rock homes and requires similar lot sizes
