The Fremont County Planning Commission will begin a review of Fremont County Zoning Classifications dealing with duplex construction at their April 5th regular meeting. The review of the proposed 22nd Amendment to the Fremont County Zoning Resolution was prompted by a moratorium put into place by the Fremont County Board of Commissioners at their March 8th meeting. The Commissioners adopted a moratorium to last no longer than six months when it came to the Board’s attention that duplex construction is permitted in the County’s Low Density Residential Zone along with single family dwellings. The moratorium on the issuance of building permits for duplexes covered all zoning classifications except for medium and high density residential zones. The Planning Commission is now set to review what kind of permanent restrictions should be made in the other zone classifications regarding duplex construction.
The Planning Commission’s agenda also includes review of the proposed 1st amendment to the Fremont County Subdivision regulations which deals with amendments regarding interior lot lines, boundary line adjustments, design standards for street cuts, and driveway access.

The Planning Commission meets at 7 p.m. Tuesday, April 5th, in the Commissioners Meeting room on the lower level of the County Administration Building at 615 Macon Avenue in Canon City.
