Lone Tree additions, remodels and bathroom renovations.

That depends which Planned Development you are in, and for most Lone Tree addresses the answer is not in the municipal code. Section 16-2-170 lets a PD modify almost any standard in the zoning chapter, and the city publishes 17 separate PD documents including RidgeGate, Heritage Hills, Park Meadows, Carriage Club, Meridian, Lone Tree Town Center, Westbrook and Willow Creek. Identifying and reading the governing PD is the first step on any Lone Tree project. RidgeGate stacks further still – the 7th Amendment PD District plus the East Villages and City Center sub-area plans on top of the comprehensive plan.

Ten feet by right, and 20 feet only with Community Development Director approval, under Section 16-7-110(a)(2). That is unusually tight and it is the rule that most often reshapes a detached accessory building here. Principal buildings in the SR districts are capped at 35 feet. Note that your PD may modify these, which is why we read it first.

Lone Tree does not publish building permit review times, and we will not invent one. You may find a five-working-day figure on the city site – that applies to Public Works permits only, and applying it to a building permit would be a false promise. What is published is the fee structure: plan review at 65 per cent of the permit fee with a $100 minimum, and additional review caused by changes at $100 per hour with a two-hour minimum.
