# Board of Douglas County Commissioners - October 20, 2026, Land Use Meeting/Public Hearing

Douglas County Board of County Commissioners land use meeting and public hearing, October 20, 2026: The board considered Meridian Village Parcel P7 land disposal (project MI2026-067), which the applicant asked to continue; a motion to continue was made and seconded, but the continuation date/time is unclear in the transcript. The main hearing concerned the Maribel Village Filing 1, 10th Amendment zone map change (DR2026-005), covering about 24 acres west of Larkspur. The request would rezone approximately 22 acres from Suburban Residential to Agricultural One and 2 acres to Estate Residential, bringing the zoning into closer conformance with the Comprehensive Master Plan. The Planning Commission had recommended approval 7–0, with no public testimony at its hearing.

The applicant described the rezoning as part of an effort to remove lot lines and roads and preserve the property as habitat rather than develop it; a neighboring owner had acquired adjoining lots. With no public comments at the county hearing, the commissioners approved the zone map change unanimously, subject to a condition referenced in the meeting but not specified in the transcript. No procurement, contract awards, or purchasing decisions were identified.
