Notice to All Applicants
Please be aware that if your submittal is not complete it will either not be accepted or not scheduled for hearing until such time as a completed application, pursuant to the requirements of the El Paso County Land Development Code, has been provided to the Planning Division. Scheduling will then occur based on the meeting dates of the Planning Commission (the third Tuesday of each month), following adequate review time for staff and referral agencies.
NOTE: On October 26, 2000, the Board of County Commissioners took action to suspend the submittal cycle for a trial period of one year. This is further explained in a November 22, 2000, letter.
In most instances, a pre-application conference is required to ensure all issues are addressed so applications will be complete when formally submitted.
Applications are submitted by scheduling an appointment with the Point of Contact for the project. Appointments should be scheduled between the hours of 8:00 a.m. to noon, or 1:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m., Monday through Firday. This will assist the Department in its review of applications for completeness.
It is the intent of the Planning Division to make sure applications, including all required reports, are complete and address all applicable issues. This will avoid lengthy delays in actual processing of applications.
The Department thanks you for your cooperation in this matter. Any questions, please contact the Planning Division at (719) 520-6300.
