# September 23, 2026 Planning Commission Meeting

The City of Montrose Planning Commission met on September 23, 2026, for an informational workshop on the Envision 2040 comprehensive plan update and related planning-code work. Staff and consultants reviewed a technical update to the plan, a housing action plan, strategic-growth and water-supply elements required by state legislation, and a third phase of targeted code revisions. The city received two state grants in 2025 and has signed a contract with a consultant team for the work; no contract amount or new procurement action was identified. Staff said completing the required elements could support eligibility for future state funding, including for housing and water-related projects.

Discussion focused on how the plan and land-use maps should guide development, housing density, rezoning, and incentives such as accessory dwelling unit pre-approved plans and potentially advancing infrastructure projects. Commissioners offered feedback on clarifying how maps apply to properties inside and outside city limits; staff said the feedback could inform technical code revisions. The meeting was described as informational, with no project decisions or spending votes planned. A motion and second were made to approve the August 12 minutes, but the transcript does not capture the vote result.
