Meet our Urban Planning team | City of Colorado Springs

The Urban Planning Division focuses on guiding development in the City’s urban core, focusing primarily on downtown and the immediate surrounding areas. The urban planning division works to interpret and apply the form-based code as well as the city code to serve the needs of residents, property owners, and developers. The division regularly processes development applications for entitlements and administrative permits as well as being involved in in a range of urban issues including mobility, public art, placemaking, and social services.

Meet our team below and learn what makes us feels connected to Colorado Springs!
