Three-Mile Plan

Colorado statutes relating to municipal annexations restrict annexations from extending any more than three miles outside of municipal boundaries in any given year and require municipalities to create and adopt a Three-Mile Plan prior to annexing any property. A Three-Mile Plan gives a general description for potential future growth and must be updated yearly.

Colorado Revised Statute C.R.S. 31-12-105(1)(e) defines the plan as a document that generally describes proposed location, character, and extent of streets, subways, bridges, waterways, waterfronts, parkways, playgrounds, squares, parks, aviation fields, other public ways, grounds, open spaces, public utilities, and terminals for water, light, sanitation, transportation, and power to be provided by the municipality and the proposed land uses for the area.
