Council directs staff to begin 2040 comprehensive-plan update, budgets consultant work

Castle Rock Town Council · August 18, 2026

Summary

Council unanimously directed staff to issue an RFP and begin a roughly 12–15 month process, funded in this budget cycle, to update the town's comprehensive master plan to 2040 with broad community engagement.

Council directed staff to proceed with a comprehensive-master-plan update to replace the 2030 plan. Planning staff said the update will be guided by a national‑firm consultant, extensive community engagement, and cross-references to transportation, water and other master plans. The budget includes approximately $250,000 for consultant services and staff outlined a timeline for an RFP, consultant selection, and a 12–15 month engagement process.

Councilmembers said the project is an opportunity to address pressing community concerns — especially traffic and water-resource planning — and to clarify long-term growth and nodal development goals. Town Manager David and planning staff emphasized the council retains final authority over the plan and that the process is intended to provide a public, evidence-based foundation for future code changes and capital priorities.
