Department Update: Development Services Project Updates

Body

________________________________________________________________________________

Staff receives inquiries and land use and building permit applications on a daily basis. The high growth nature of our community leads to many questions and individuals seeking information. All land use activity information is located on the Town website under the Development Activity link. Please contact me if any questions arise.

1. New Quasi-Judicial Applications Requiring Public Hearings:

No new applications this week.

2. General Inquiries in the Town or within the County:

Wolfensberger Apartment PPA:

Staff received a request seeking feedback on annexation and zoning of property at 650 East Wolfensberger Street adjacent to the Auburn Ridge apartment complex.

Kreft PD PPA:

Staff received a request seeking feedback on a contractor’s office building and construction yard within the Kreft PD, located at 646 Prairie Hawk Drive south and east of the Denver Brick Company. The property is accessed off Prairie Hawk Drive, which is currently a dirt road, with a crossing at the BNSF railroad tracks.

1407 N Park Street PPA:

Staff received a request seeking feedback on a proposed rezone that would change an existing automotive repair services PD zone to a straight zone Industrial (I-1).
