Executive Summary
The high growth nature of Castle Rock results in numerous and diverse questions with individuals seeking information about existing conditions and future plans. All community development activity information is located on the Town website under the Development Activity link and In Your Backyard interactive map.
Town staff is always available to meet with interested parties to review existing zoning and development plans and review proposed projects submitted for Town review. Staff can also assist with inquiries have not been submitted as formal applications. Staff spends a considerably amount of time working with residents and development teams before formal submittals occur and can provide information on such inquiries.
1. Quasi-Judicial Applications Requiring Public Hearings:
407 Jerry Street
The Olinger Andrews Caldwell Gibson Chapel funeral home has submitted an application to demolish their existing building at 407 Jerry Street to make way for a future renovation. Because part of the building was built around 1929, the property owner must get a recommendation from the Historic Preservation Board and approval from the Town Council to demolish the building. The property is not historically landmarked. However, demolition of any building built before 1945 within the historic downtown area requires the Historic Preservation Board’s recommendation and Town Council approval prior to issuance of a demolition permit. Public hearings will be scheduled with the Historic Preservation Board and Town Council. The proposal is located in Councilmember Bower’s District
2. General Inquiries in the Town or within the County:
Centennial Lofts
Jason August on behalf of Gourmet Real Estate, Inc., is seeking feedback on a Preliminary Project Inquiry (PPI) for a proposed annexation of approximately 4.7 acres for a residential project. The subject parcel is located at the southeast corner of South Gilbert Street and South Street in unincorporated Douglas County. The proposal is for an 81-unit “for sale” condo complex that includes a trail connection on the southern part of the parcel located in a large open space area. If the project moves forward it will require public hearings for Annexation, Zoning, and Site Development Plan processes. If the property is annexed, it would be located in Councilmember Bower’s district.
3. PreApplication Meeting Requests:
