TOWN OF MONUMENT COVID-19 PROCESS FOR PLANNING COMMISSION MEETINGS UNLESS OTHERWISE NOTED BY GOVERNOR POLIS' OFFICE 

The Town of Monument continues to closely monitor Coronavirus (COVID-19) and take steps to keep our community and staff safe. With this in mind the Planning Commission meetings will be following this process until further notice.

*Due to the unfortunate Pandemic and the Planning Commission being unable to meet as normal, we had to implement additional special Planning Commission meetings in June and July (and may need more), in order to hear a backlog of development projects. This is approved by the Planning Commission to avoid further delays.

*Also due to the Pandemic and the need to safely follow Until further notice, the Planning Commissioners, project applicants and staff will be at the Town Hall Boardroom in person. This may include limited numbers of people in the Board room, social distancing and requiring masks etc. At this time Public attendance will be limited to remote attendance with the following guidelines :


*Each Development Project will have information uploaded onto the Town website for public review, one week in advance on the Monument Documents on Demand.

Additionally, similar to the Board of Trustee meetings, the Town of Monument will use the remote public participation process below. (updated for each hearing date)
