Towns in Park County: Castle Pines North, Fairplay.
Flood zone by address
ParcelSheet reads FEMA's National Flood Hazard Layer at the lot: the zone, whether it is a high risk area where lenders ask for flood insurance, and the base flood elevation where FEMA lists one. FEMA's countywide study for Park County has 56 FIRM panels, the newest effective December 2009; no coastal V zones are mapped in it.
The official panel and any Letter of Map Amendment are at FEMA's Map Service Center. An elevation certificate for a Park house comes from a licensed surveyor and is often on file with the county or city building office.
Property lines
The parcel outline, parcel number and mapped size come from the Colorado public parcel layer (Governor's Office of Information Technology, from the counties that share their parcels), so a Park lot shows the same lines the county assessor draws. Park County covers about 1,403,847 acres of land and 10,754 acres of water.
Mapped lines are approximate. The Park County assessor keeps the parcel record (Park County website); a licensed surveyor sets the true corners.
Zoning
Park County zones its unincorporated land, and Fairplay zones the land inside its limits. ParcelSheet shows the use the county assessor lists for the lot and links the county planning office for the district, the uses it allows and the lot size it needs.
ADU and guest houses
Under Colorado's county and city zoning powers (C.R.S. Title 30, Article 28, and Title 31, Article 23), local governments can allow an accessory dwelling unit on a lot with a house. Whether a Park lot can add one depends on its district; the county planning office has the rule. ParcelSheet shows the mapped lot size and the ground's slope, the first two things the question turns on.
Septic and soil
ParcelSheet reads the USDA soil survey at the lot: the soil's name, its septic absorption rating and whether it is prime farmland. Park County is soil survey area CO641, Golden Area, Colorado, Parts of Denver, Douglas, Jefferson, and Park Counties, last updated September 2026, on Web Soil Survey.
A new or changed septic system in Park County needs a permit from the Park County local public health agency under CDPHE Regulation 43.
Setbacks
Setbacks in Park County come from the zoning district: the front, side and rear distances a house must keep. ParcelSheet does not draw setback lines; the county zoning office gives them for the lot's district, and Fairplay for land inside its limits.
Hazards that apply
- Wetlands and wildfire. ParcelSheet shows the National Wetlands Inventory near a Park lot and the Forest Service wildfire hazard rating at it.
