Step 1: Obtain Building Lot Information
Building lot status is reviewed by the Land Use Department to determine whether the lot was created in accordance
with the laws of the State of Colorado and Boulder County Zoning Regulations. In making this determination, Land
Use staff primarily looks at three things:
1. Size of your lot,
2. The year the lot was created, and
3. Whether or not the lot is in a County recognized subdivision.
Note: Having an existing house or other improvements on a property does not guarantee that the lot will be recognized
as a legal building lot.
o
Please submit with your Site Plan Review Application, one copy of the following (if initialed by the Pre-Application
Conference planner):
Building Lot Determination - A letter from the Land Use Department verifying that the lot being
reviewed is a legal building lot. To obtain this letter, follow the directions in the Building Lot
Determination application form and Land Use Publication titled Building Lot Determination.
A determination usually takes 10-14 days, so it’s wise to submit the building lot determination request as
early as possible. The Site Plan Review will not begin until the determination has been made.
Subdivision Exemption Resolution - Resolution for approval of the lot as created and approved through
the Subdivision Exemption land use review.
