DEVELOPMENT PROCESSES (Annexation, Development or Subdividing of Land)

Development Pre-Application Meetings

Purpose

Prior to submitting a new development application, a pre-application meeting is encouraged. This process allows for any questions about the development process, including fees and submittal requirements. 

Schedule a Meeting

Pre-application meetings should be scheduled up to one week prior to the scheduled meeting date. Applicants should provide graphic information and a proposed development concept to staff when scheduling the meeting so that feedback can be provided, and questions can be answered. 

Please complete the Pre-App Questionnaire  and contact a member of the Planning Department for scheduling at Planning@tomgov.org


​Development Application



A development application is required prior to the development of a site. The Development Application includes, but is not limited to, the following information:
  • Application type(s), ranging from Annexation to a Use by Special Review
  • Basic project information, such as what development is being proposed
  • Breakdown of fees paid to the Town of Monument.

A Site Plan Improvements Agreement may also be required for improvements such as public infrastructure and landscaping. This will be part of the Development application process.

Final Pre-Construction Meetings

After development approvals have been made and prior to breaking ground on a new project, a pre-construction meeting with the Engineering Assistant Tom Martinez is required. This process allows for any questions about the construction process to be resolved and the Town to inform the applicant about expectations throughout construction. Meetings can be made by reviewing the Pre-Construction Conference Agenda (PDF) and emailing Tom Martinez.
