Board adopts UDC map amendments for 49 uncontested parcels; contested parcels deferred

Jan 8, 2026

Douglas County adopted Unified Development Code map amendments affecting 49 uncontested parcels (mostly down‑zonings where prior rezonings did not vest). Contested parcels were removed from the package for later review; staff will provide a district‑by‑district breakout on request.

The full story

Douglas County planners presented a comprehensive map amendment package on Jan. 6 that updated zoning for 49 uncontested parcels. Staff explained the selection methodology: parcels that had approved rezonings but did not vest within the 24‑month vesting window, historic mapping artifacts inherited from the former Lithia Springs map, and parcels used residentially without evidence of commercial build‑out.
