The Planning Commission evaluates matters related to planning and community development. Members serve at the pleasure of the City Council and are appointed for four-year, overlapping terms. The term for the alternate position expires on December 31, 2024.
Planning Commissioners have a variety of backgrounds and experiences that contribute to making important decisions about the future of Montrose. Successful Planning Commissioners enjoy learning about land use, work well as part of a team, have a passion for the Montrose community, and are willing to prioritize what is best for the community over what is best individually. Experience in development, planning, and real estate is not required.
