Pre-application Meetings

Meetings designed to help landowners, developers and their consultants understand Aurora's submittal, approval and permitting requirements for their specific development project. To begin the development process contact ODA or submit a Pre-Application Meeting request in the Customer Portal. 

Annexation

Annexation is the process to incorporate land into the city limits. ODA coordinates the city review of annexation requests and negotiation of the annexation agreement between the landowner and the city of Aurora.

To begin the annexation process, contact ODA to schedule an appointment with a Project Manager.

Title 32 Metropolitan Districts

The city supports creation of Title 32 Metropolitan Districts (metro districts) by private developers in order to provide a mechanism to finance infrastructure costs for master planned developments. View a map of metro districts in Aurora.
