Since the passage of a state law in 2022 preventing Homeowners’ Associations (HOAs) from regulating the public right-of-way, you’ve made your voice heard that this policy does not work for Highlands Ranch and other areas of Douglas County. Residents have expressed that unregulated parking in certain neighborhoods has led to unsafe traffic conditions, polluted air, increased noise, and a generally decreased quality of life. The Board of Douglas County Commissioners heard your voices, and this April they are taking action.
During a Business Meeting Tuesday, April 8 the Board approved the first reading of a proposed ordinance that will prohibit some types of vehicles from parking on neighborhood streets.
Join your Board again on Tuesday, April 22 at 1:30 p.m. for a second Business Meeting on the topic. This will be another chance to ask questions and connect with your Board on the ordinance and what it would mean for your community.
The proposed restrictions will address several traffic issues of importance to residents, including regulating street parking for recreational vehicles and commercial vehicles. If passed on second reading on April 22, the restrictions will go into effect on May 22 2025 (30 days after adoption at the second reading on April 22.)
