The proposed amendments to Chapter 90 are available on La Plata County’s web site at http://co.laplata.co.us. A red-lined version of all the changes to date has also been added to the website.
All comment already provided to the Planning Commission has been provided to the Board of County Commissioners and is a part of the official record.
