Following the exciting passage of the Palisade Comprehensive Plan in 2007, Town staff, Board and Planning Commission members have been working with consultant Richard Grice of Four Corners Planning to create a new Land Development Code which will help the Comprehensive plan take physical shape within town limits. The new code specifically spells out a new set of rules to govern how our built environment is managed, developed and changed.
A land development Code affects everything from the height and composition of proposed structures, to the type and intensity of businesses that can be developed in what zones of town. A land development code, much like the Comprehensive Plan it aims to empower, answers the questions: what, where, and how, as they apply to land use.
Follow the link below to download a PDF version of the DRAFT Land Development Code. Changes are still being made and the rough edges made smooth. We’d love to hear your comments however, and look forward to seeing you at the Palisade Veteran’s Memorial Center (120 W. 8th Street) to introduce the new Code in public meetings on:
February 27, 2008 at 7:00
March 5, 2008 at 7:00
and at the official Public Hearings on:
March 12, 2008 at 7:00 before the Planning Commission
March 25, 2008 at 7:00 before the Town of Palisade Board of Trustees
