Development Policies and Public Works Standards The Mayor and Council of the City of Castle Rock welcome you to develop
in a community dedicated to maintaining a quality environment.
Castle Rock’s Staff will work with you to create first class additions
to our city. As staff, we believe that the best way to help you through
this process is to meet with you prior to the development of plans and
details.
This document will show you our process and our standards. We feel that
many of your questions will be answered here. While these standards are
intended to apply to all projects within the City limits, they are also
intended to be utilized in applicable circumstances where the City’s
service areas, annexation areas or planning areas extend outside its
limits. These standards can also be used for annexation agreements with
the county.
We attempt to achieve maximum uniformity of planning, engineering, and
construction practices within the City of Castle Rock. These are minimum
standards and are intended to assist, but not to substitute for competent
work by engineering and design professionals. Special conditions or environmental
constraints may require a more stringent design than would normally be
required under these standards. It is not the intent of the City to unreasonably
limit any innovative effort which could result in a superior project
design. A proposed design which is different than these Development Guidelines
will be evaluated on the basis that the proposed design will produce
a comparable or superior result, and in every way adequate for the user,
the City, and the public.
This document may contain minor errors, discrepancies or omissions which
will be corrected in future updates. In the interim, the City shall have
the right of imposing the “intent” of the City.
