In partnership with other city agencies, Denver Community Planning and Development (CPD) is working on potential updates to landscape requirements to increase and promote a more climate resilient city. Climate resilient landscapes are designed to use less water, can survive during times of drought, help to reduce heat in the city, and support pollinators, among many other benefits. 

In 2024 and 2025, the State of Colorado passed two bills (SB 24-005 and HB 25-1113) that prohibit new highwater-use turf in non-functional areas such as medians, roadways, and parking lots. This project will address the requirements of these bills and go beyond to look at the future of all landscape to ensure it meets the vision of the Denver community.

It is your right to request oral or written language assistance services in your primary language, sign language interpretation, real-time captioning via CART, or disability-related accommodations, if needed. Email michelle.corl@denvergov.org or submit the language services request form and these services will be provided free of charge.
