The Wildfire Resiliency Code Board (WRCB) within the Colorado Division of Fire Prevention and Control is beginning interest group and public engagement through virtual town halls to raise awareness of and seek feedback on the draft State Wildfire Resiliency Code. The Board helps enhance community safety and resiliency from wildfires through the adoption of codes and standards, and represents diverse perspectives (including DOLA’s Colorado Resiliency Office) as it works to define areas in Colorado facing the greatest wildfire risk and develop minimum wildfire resiliency codes.
The 90-minute sessions will include a brief overview of the mission, responsibilities, and progress of the Board followed by a review of the draft code before opening the floor for public comment. Those interested in providing comments during a session are asked to RSVP via the public feedback form. Written comments may also be submitted to the WRCB. While the listed meetings are geared towards specific interest groups, all meetings are open to the public, allowing for flexibility in attendance.

Local Planning Capacity grants support local government efforts to implement systems that fast track or expedite the development review process for affordable housing. These funds can also support local government capacity to achieve local affordable housing goals and local governments’ Prop 123 commitments. Many grantees are exploring land use code amendments, implementing process improvements to streamline the development review process, or investing in permitting software as part of their strategy. Others will use grant funds to inventory potential properties for future affordable housing projects, designate a liaison to work with developers, implement a housing action plan, incentive programs for affordable housing, or efforts to achieve Prop 123 goals such as preservation of mobile home parks.
This monthly recurring meeting takes place on the 3rd Thursday of each month and is hosted by the Community Development Office in the Division of Local Government, within DOLA. The intended audience is local government planners and other staff working on land use and housing issues.
