C.R.S. Section 31-23-215
Procedure

  • legal effect

(1)

The commission shall approve or disapprove a plat within thirty days after said plat has been submitted to it; otherwise such plat shall be deemed approved and a certificate to that effect shall be issued by the commission on demand unless the applicant for the commission’s approval waives this requirement and consents to an extension of such period. The ground of disapproval of any plat shall be stated upon the records of the commission. No plat shall be acted on by the commission without affording a hearing thereon. Notice of the time and place of such hearing shall be sent to mineral estate owners in accordance with article 65.5 of title 24, C.R.S.

(2)

Every plat approved by the commission, by virtue of such approval, shall be deemed to be an amendment or an addition to or a detail of the municipal plan and a part thereof. Approval of a plat shall not constitute or effect an acceptance by the public of any street or other open space shown upon the plat. From time to time, the commission may recommend to the governing body amendments of the zoning ordinance or map or additions thereto to conform to the commission’s recommendations for the zoning regulations of the territory comprised within approved subdivisions. The commission has the power to impose use, height, area, or bulk requirements or restrictions governing buildings and premises within the subdivision if such requirements or restrictions do not authorize the violation of the then effective zoning ordinance of the municipality. Such requirements or restrictions shall be stated upon the plat prior to the approval and recording thereof, shall have the force of law, and shall be enforceable in the same manner and with the same sanctions and penalties and subject to the same powers of amendment or repeal as though set out as a part of the zoning ordinance or map of the municipality. No action taken under this section shall be binding for any purpose until such action has been approved by the governmental body of the territory affected or any part thereof.
