6 Brief Summary of Planning in Colorado 1 County Planning Act Counties must enact and enforce controls on land division and create a planning commission No statewide land use plan Plans, regulations, and codes are designated by each town, city or county and vary in complexity and procedures. 2 Local Land Use Control Enabling Act 3 Colorado Land Use Act Regulate land use impacts on community or surrounding area with some limitations 4 Areas and Activities of State Interest Established statewide planning agency but was never funded due to local concerns Local governments designate areas/activities of state interest and regulate development in those areas 6

10 Matters of Statewide, Local and Mixed Concerns Home Rule Municipality State of Colorado Power to create own charter, ordinances and laws that extend to all its local matters Can only supersede state law where the matter is of local concern Can regulate matters of mixed local & statewide concern Lines are seldom very clear Delegates enormous powers of self-government to home rule cities and to lesser extent home rule counties Retains Control of statewide concerns In case of a conflict on matters of mixed concern, state law supersedes local law 10
11 Florida Top Down Planning State Land Use Development Plan is used to guide regional and local planning Regional Planning Councils review developments of regional impact and help local governments prepare land use plans State Regional Planning State takes an active regulatory role in the review & approval of local land use plans Regional Councils must develop land use plans that conform to state plans Local governments may not issue building permits unless needed infrastructure can be funded and constructed before development occurs Local Governments Local land use plans are subject to state approval 11
12 Mixed Concern Example Landfills State of Colorado Sets rules to protect public safety and environment Local Government Can require stricter standards than state Reviews proposal for compliance with minimum state standards & regulations Sets and holds financial warranty Issues land use and operational permit Can t require additional financial assurance Does not issue permit to operate landfill Cannot issue permit without state approval 12
13 Mixed Concern Example Mining State of Colorado Sets rules to protect public safety and environment Local Government Issues land use approval Issues reclamation permits Sets rules on traffic, noise, visual impacts, etc. Sets and holds financial warranty Can t require financial assurance on reclamation Does not issue local land use approval Does not set reclamation standards, can t ban specific types of mining 13
14 Summary Good or Bad Wild West State Control Colorado has a long history of local government control. Home rule towns, cities and counties have strong powers of self-government Local governments land use plans, policies and regulations vary greatly across the state and even across counties. The creation of model codes can help create consistency. In matters of mixed concern, state law supersedes local law. Even then, local governments may still control traffic, noise, setbacks, or visual impacts. 14
