The State of Colorado is considering several new bills that would increase affordable housing and remove restrictions on: residential zoning, ADUs, multifamily developments, and unrelated persons living together in a home (Boulder currently has some of these restrictions in place). Most of these bills would not apply to Delta County because it falls below the population thresholds to qualify. It does indicate the state is getting serious about working on the crisis of housing affordability, and that the state is proposing to remove onerous land use restrictions on additional dwellings and affordable housing.
