BackgroundTogether Jeffco 2045 Comprehensive Plan cover page

The Comprehensive Plan (CP) is used to determine the most desirable location of each type of development. The CP is advisory in nature, and provides guidance to residents, staff, and elected and appointed officials on future growth and development in the unincorporated areas of Jefferson County. The Area Plans section of the CP contains additional advisory policies and land use recommendations that are also to be used when reviewing a proposed rezoning, special use, or location and extent. The policies in these plans were created to be specific to the Area to which they apply and reflect input from community members, property owners and area agencies.
