At a joint meeting with Durango City Councilors and the La Plata County Board of County Commissioners, Durango Community Development Director Scott Shine gave an update on three projects that he said won’t happen without city/county alignment – La Posta Road, Three Springs, and Durango Crossing.

• • The City of Durango has received a letter from La Posta Road area property owners about proceeding with annexation. Landowners are organized and are gathering documentation needed for annexation. Shine said a joint resolution would be a great next step. La Plata County Commissioners have an interest in seeing La Posta Road development, and Commissioner Matt Salka said a master road agreement would be crucial. 
  • Village 2 is the next large development entitled at Three Springs. City staff have work with the Growth Fund on the terms of a new development agreement, which Shine said is a major milestone. The agreement will be reviewed by staff and then will go to City Council.
  • Durango Crossing is at the intersection of Florida Road and CR 250. The development will be for 149 residential units – a mix of condos, townhomes, and apartments. 50% will be deed restricted and half of those will be ownership opportunities. The next step is annexation.
