  • Zoning requirements limit house sizes in two different ways: they impose a lot coverage ratio of 37.5% on two-story buildings or 40% on single story. They also impose a floor area ratio of 45% on all single-family residences in this subdivision. Floor area ratio tends to be the most important limiting factor - it is primarily the conditioned space plus garage. Please check the City of Durango codes for their definitions of these ratios.

  • Yes, the subdivision is in the Elevation Park Metropolitan District. Lot buyers and home buyers must pay a one-time development fee of $2,500 to the district in the case of a lot or home being sold for the first time in the subdivision. Townhome development fees are $1,500.00. The district also imposes an annual property tax mill levy of 60 mills, adjusted in the event that the assessed valuation rate is higher or lower than pre-2019. The district may increase the mill levy to compensate for reductions in assessed valuation rates by the Colorado legislature, as happened in late 2023. In 2024 the mill levy rate was 71. The mill levy will end in 2051 and may be reduced with sufficient appreciation of home values.

  • We submitted our application for phase 2 development to the La Plata County planning department in November 2023 and in April 2024 received sketch plan approval by the joint planning commission.
