Community Development Department
The City of Castle Pines was recently notified of an email scam targeting land use applicants.
These fraudulent emails appear with the City’s Office address, impersonate a member of the Planning Commission, and include project information. These emails are NOT correspondence from the City.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION:
- All correspondence from the City will be sent to you with an email address from the "@castlepinesco.gov" domain.
- All fees associated with your application will be located within the case file in SmartGov. Fees can always be paid through the SmartGov portal or check brought to the City.
- Any invoice sent from the City will come from an email address with the "@castlepinesco.gov" domain.
If you received an email or have any concerns, please reach out to your Community Development contact directly.
