Add Contiguous Land - Increase Value
In Jefferson County, Colorado, there's a process for residents to apply to add contiguous strips of public right-of-way to their private property, called a "road vacation". This term refers to the process of officially abandoning or vacating a public right-of-way. Preliminary feedback from the county indicates that acquiring the contingent right-of-way property, would increase this property to over 1 acre.
How To
In Jefferson County, Colorado, there are two primary legal methods for acquiring unused strips of county land for your property: through the county’s vacation process or by a claim of adverse possession (not recommended for county land). The most direct route is through the official county process.
Option 1: Vacate a county right-of-way
This is the most common and recommended way to add an unused strip of land, such as an alley or paper street, to your property. The process requires approval from the Jefferson County Board of County Commissioners.
This property is surrounded by right-of-way on THREE sides.
Contact Jefferson County Planning & Zoning Division: Or, the County Surveyor’s Office. They can help you determine the specific procedure for vacating a public right-of-way and confirm the land’s status.
File an application: Submit a formal application to the Board of County Commissioners to “vacate” the right-of-way. This application typically requires:
- A certified boundary survey that clearly shows the existing and proposed new lot lines.
- Payment of processing fees.
- A legal description of the land to be vacated.
Public hearing: The county will set a public hearing and notify adjacent property owners. They may post signs and publish notice in a local newspaper.
Board approval: The Board of County Commissioners will review the application and hold a public hearing. They must find that the vacation is in the public’s interest before granting approval.
Vesting of title: If the vacation is approved, the title for the vacated land typically vests in the adjacent landowners. It’s important to confirm this with the county and potentially record new deeds to reflect the new property lines.
