How do I request public records from Communtiy Development?

To do a Records Request please do the following:

1.  Log onto: www.pitkincounty.com or https://pitkincounty.com/454/Online-Search

2.  Click the “Planning/Zoning/Building” button

3.  Click the “Archived Records” button

4.  Click “Please click here to submit a CORA Records Request” at the top of the page.  

Once a Records Request is submitted, everything for the property/parcel (except interior plans which only the owner can view) will be provided.  If the owner is an LLC, you must supply a Statement of Authority from the LLC.   

FYI: you can view/search all the archived records online (except interior plans) if you follow steps 1 to 3 above, but instead of clicking “CORA Records Request” click “Search Documents by Address.”  

The best and easiest way to search is by first having the property’s Parcel ID (XXXX-XXX-XX-XXX, 12 digits no dashes) to search as the address and name of the owner searches don’t always work as well. Then change the “TYPE of Document” from “Board of Adjustments” to “All.”
