Council holds first reading of land-use code overhaul under planning grant
Summary
Rangely council held a first reading of Ordinance 70525 to revise municipal land-use code sections as part of a local planning grant; planning commission reviewed the draft and recommended approval to proceed to a second reading at the next meeting.
The Rangely Town Council introduced Ordinance 70525, which would repeal and replace portions of Title 15 (several articles and sections) to update the town's land-use code. Staff said the revisions stem from a local planning grant and aim to modernize the municipal code and set clearer timelines for processing requests. "Most of this is centered around that," the account manager said, noting planning and zoning had held three work sessions and recommended the draft move forward.
Council members were told the ordinance requires two readings and that no vote would be held at the meeting. Staff emphasized the changes would not affect building codes and encouraged councilors to read the draft and prepare questions for the second reading, which will be scheduled the same night as the upcoming budget meeting.
