Presentation: annexation rules and comp plan background

Presentation

1:34 → 3:46(2m 12s)

Staff opened the workshop with an overview of the 2023 comprehensive plan map and the town's annexation rules, noting Lyons relies on state statutes, that annexations under 5 acres (or 10 acres in the eastern corridor) may require a vote, and that the three-mile planning rule limits expansion. Staff said these rules and reporting requirements frame the draft Boulder County–Lyons IGA.

Speakers:

Town staff presented a draft intergovernmental agreement (IGA) with Boulder County that adds a new “limited development” map category and adjusts which parcels are eligible for annexation; residents raised strong objections over map changes (Connor/Boone parcels), transparency, and the IGA’s removed preamble. The board will consider direction at its Sept. 15 meeting.
