Sheridan meetings set wildfire code, ADU rules, liquor license — but outcomes not yet confirmed

Sheridan's recent government meetings covered a range of consequential items — a wildfire resiliency code, accessory dwelling unit setback changes, fast-tracked affordable housing review, and a liquor license hearing — but because minutes have not yet been published, no outcomes or vote tallies are available. The summaries below reflect what was on each agenda, not what was decided.

City Council — June 22, 2026

The City Council agenda listed three substantive items alongside a consent agenda. None of the results are confirmed because minutes have not been published.

• **Ordinance 8-2026 (second reading):** Adoption of the 2025 Colorado Wildfire Resiliency Code. A second reading typically indicates the ordinance was previously introduced and is now eligible for final adoption, but the agenda does not state the outcome.
• **Ordinance 9-2026 (first reading):** An amendment to rear setback standards for accessory dwelling units (ADUs). A first reading is an introduction; no final decision was scheduled.
• **Resolution 21-2026:** A proposal to establish expedited review policies for affordable housing projects.
• **Consent agenda:** Approval of $511,046.33 in disbursements for June 1–15, 2026.
• **Staff reports:** Permit and court reports for May 2026 were also scheduled for review.

A separate City Council Work Session on the same date carried the same items, including the wildfire code, ADU setback amendment, affordable housing resolution, and the $511,046.33 disbursement approval.

Sheridan Redevelopment Agency — June 22, 2026

The Sheridan Redevelopment Agency agenda included two disbursement approvals and a financial report review:

• **May 2026 disbursements:** $167,766.87
• **June 2026 disbursements:** $177,089.83
• **Teresa Report:** Review of the April 2026 Teresa Report.

Combined, the two disbursement items total $344,856.70. Outcomes are not confirmed because minutes have not been published.

Local Licensing Authority — June 26, 2026

The Local Licensing Authority scheduled a public hearing on a hotel/restaurant liquor license application for Smokin' Outlaw Kitchen LLC at 4211 S. Natches Ct. Unit A. The agenda indicates the authority would likely decide on the application, but no outcome is recorded in the available materials. Approval of prior meeting minutes was also listed.

What this means for residents

• The **wildfire resiliency code**, if adopted, would align Sheridan with the 2025 Colorado Wildfire Resiliency Code, affecting building and safety standards.
• The **ADU setback amendment** could change where accessory dwelling units may be built on a property.
• The **affordable housing expedited review** resolution, if passed, would create a faster permitting path for qualifying projects.
• The **liquor license hearing** for Smokin' Outlaw Kitchen could determine whether the business may serve alcohol at its S. Naches Ct. location.

Because all four meetings are listed as "agenda only (minutes not yet published)," residents should treat the above as scheduled business, not confirmed decisions. Official minutes, when published, will record votes and any amendments.

Coming up

No upcoming meetings are listed for the next 14 days (through July 20, 2026). Residents should check the city's official calendar for any newly posted or special meetings.
