Timeline for Annexation Approval
--City Council hearing. City Council approved a resolution finding the Crowsnest property eligible for annexation into Castle Pines.
--City Council to consider Resolution No. 26-23, which would direct the council to develop a formal Annexation Policy -- so that future annexation proposals would meet community standards before advancing to hearings. Read the agenda here. PAAC encourages every resident to attend this meeting and demand strong, resident-driven criteria (e.g., 36–38% open space minimums, fiscal neutrality, no flagpole annexations, binding wildlife/traffic/school protections) to prevent easy re-approval of Crowsnest or similar projects.
The Planning Commission will consider the applicant's proposed Planned Development zoning in order to make a recommendation for the City Council's consideration.
