About the Castle Pines Urban Renewal Authority

In May 2023, the Castle Pines City Council approved the creation of an Urban Renewal Authority to help revitalize areas in the city's Business Zone District. This authority is known as the Castle Pines Urban Renewal Authority (CPURA). Visit the CPURA information page for more information.

The urban renewal area generally encompasses the City’s Business Zone District and is intended to allow more flexibility in what commercial property owners can do with their property; allow taxes to be spent on improvements within a targeted area; identify capital improvements needed to accommodate future investment; potentially provide property redevelopment/expansion financial assistance; and, balance growth across the community. Urban renewal will not prevent owners or tenants from continuing a business or land use; raise property tax mill levy or sales tax rate; force owners to improve their property; diminish the value of property; or prevent property owners from selling their property.
