The Durango Districts Initiative was established in the summer of 2016 to accomplish the adopted City Council Goal 4, which states "Envision Durango's Sense of place by creating character districts, promoting responsible land use planning, and maintaining the community's sense of identity". In addition, Objective 4.1 of the Council Goals states, "Create districts in the community that embrace the unique character of that area."
The Durango Districts Initiative website provides a comprehensive overview of the Districts that have been identified and principles guiding this important initiative.
