Tiny houses may soon be coming to El Paso county, particularly in Colorado Springs. A Denver-based tiny home community developer is working with the county\u2019s zoning department to make it possible for residents to live in tiny units. The developer, Life Size Tiny Communities, has submitted a proposal for what they are calling \u2018 to El Paso County. They list the address 9620 Chipeta Park Road, off highway 24. CEO Joe Callantine, touted the benefits of tiny living, particularly when it comes to affordability and meeting market demands. \u201cIf you can turn around something in 3 months and pay $75 thousand, can you image how that could actually impact the marketplace in terms of supply? That supply and demand thing is completely out of wack right now,\u201d he said. He added that tiny house will be a key solution to the \u2018missing middle\u2019 housing crisis. is one of the friendlier states when it comes to tiny homes, but that varies from county to county and even from municipality to municipality. In El Paso county, Tiny House Parks are only allowed in the Recreational Vehicle Park Zoning District. In this case, some rezoning may need to be approved for the project to get the greenlight. \u201cCities and counties don\u2019t really have a check box for us to put a mark in, and let us be able to live in these types of structures. The rezoning piece is the catch \u2026 that\u2019s the longest piece of it\u2026There are people, lots of people out there, like me, who\u2026 I\u2019ve got a home, I just need a legal place to put it,\u201d Callantine continued. If Life Size Tiny Communities succeed, they plan to bring in the infrastructure and utilities, but from there it would be \u201cBYOH\u201d, or \u201cbring your own home.\u201d Bonsai Village will have space for 100 tiny homes. There are over 20 tiny home builders serving Colorado, which should give interested home owners ample choice.,<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
