Replacement Zoning Map Project

In May 2024, the Town completed the first step in the adoption of the Town’s LDO Modernization project which was to adopt the LDO portions regarding process and development standards, but specifically excluding section 13.04 Zoning Districts until a replacement zoning map is completed and adopted. The current step of the adoption process of the Land Development Ordinance (LDO) is the development and adoption of the replacement zoning map and adopting Section 13.04 - Zoning.

The Town’s official zoning map shows the locations of the various zoning districts established within the Town of Parker municipal limits. Zoning describes what uses are permitted on any land and also includes dimensional standards such as building heights and setbacks. Click here to view the current zoning map.

The replacement zoning map will be developed to align with the Parker 2035 Master Plan and its General Land Use Plan. The LDO implements the adopted policies in the Master Plan and other adopted Town plans. The replacement zoning map will primarily apply to properties zoned Commercial, Business or Greater Downtown District in the Town, these zone districts will no longer exist with the adoption of the new zone districts. The text of the proposed zoning districts and their descriptions are listed in the new LDO and available for review using the 13.04 Zoning Districts link above. A Zoning Districts Comparison Guide has also been developed for viewers to compare changes between the new Commercial and Mixed Use zoning districts and the current C-Commercial and B-Business zoning districts. The Comparison Guide can be found in the Document Library on the project website ParkerCO.gov/LDO.

Next steps include development of the draft replacement zoning map and community outreach. Continue to watch the project website for information on the draft replacement zoning map and announcements of upcoming public outreach events to participate in the conversation.
