About this update
On January 27, 2010, the Jefferson County Planning Commission adopted the Jefferson County Comprehensive Master Plan. This Plan consolidated the general policies in the existing community plans into one document. Now Planning & Zoning is incorporating the community plans into the Comprehensive Master Plan. Plans currently being worked on are the North Plains, Central Plains, and South Jeffco Community Plans. Please go to the main Community Plan Updates page for more information on the North Plains and Central Plains Community Plans.

For the South Jefferson County Community Plan update, currently, staff is gathering background information about existing land uses in the area, reviewing proposed and approved changes in land use since the previous plan was adopted, and developing lists of interested parties. This update will include incorporating the majority of the C470 Corridor Plan and portions of the General Land Use Plan north of US 285 and South of West Jewell Avenue. We are anticipating public meetings to start in July and run through December. After those meetings, the draft plan would be finalized, sent out for public review, and then taken to the Planning Commission for decision.
