About City Council Meetings

The regular meetings of the City Council are held on the second and fourth Tuesday of each month at 6:30 p.m. at the Douglas County Library, 360 Village Square Lane, Event Hall. The public is encouraged to attend and participate in these meetings. Anyone who wants to address the Council may do so during the public comment period at the regular meetings of the City Council.  Public comment is limited to three minutes per person.

Study sessions are held, as needed, at 5:30 p.m. on the first, second, and fourth Tuesdays of each month. Study sessions are informational meetings and differ in several ways from the regular City Council meetings. While the City Council may give direction to City staff, no votes are cast, no formal action is taken, and there is no public comment during the study session.

Leaf and Pumpkin Composting

Castle Pines residents are invited to recycle leaves and pumpkins for composting!

First have fun with your leaves- gather them in piles and jump in, use them for Halloween props, etc. - then bring them to be composted.

Pile them in bags and bring them to Elk Ridge Park's parking lot. (You'll dump the leaves out of the bags....no bags will be accepted at the event.)

Leaves are collected and used by local farms as a soil amendment and need to be as clean as possible. No garden waste, large brush, branches, or tree stumps are accepted as part of the leaf collection event (no commercial landscaping).

The event is free to Castle Pines residents!
