Residential Zoning Changed Approved Allowing Sprout Tiny Homes to Proceed With Tiny Home Community

Walsenburg, CO City Counsel Approved a Zoning Change Clearing the Way for a Sprout Tiny Home Community Development

LA JUNTA, CO / ACCESSWIRE / July 9, 2015 / Sprout Tiny Homes (PINKSHEETS:STHI) today announced that the city counsel of Walsenburg, Colorado approved an ordinance changing the zoning of a parcel of land purchased by Sprout Tiny Homes that will clear the way to proceed with a proposed 28 unit tiny home development.

“Last fall, we were successful in getting Walsenburg to adopt a tiny home friendly ordinance that would allow tiny homes to be located in R2 and R2 residential zones. Sprout purchased a parcel of land behind the Walsenburg library that was zoned agricultural and Tuesday nights unanimous ordinance approval changed the zoning to R-2, which will allow Sprout to proceed with its proposed 28-unit tiny home residential development,” stated Rod Stambaugh, President of Sprout Tiny Homes. The final hurdle before the ordinance change becoming effective is a two week publication period and public hearing on August 4th.

Late last year, Walsenburg was the first city in Colorado to actively change their land use ordinance to become tiny home friendly. Sprout believes this trend will continue as towns and communities look for ways to address the quality and affordable housing void faced by so many towns looking to attract new companies to locate in their communities. Unless communities aggressively address their affordable housing issues, they have zero chance of attracting any companies of size to their communities as there is essentially no modern and / or quality housing available for employees and their families. Tiny homes represent a perfect solution to this problem. Walsenburg has had a recent flurry of activity from companies and industries looking for an affordable place to locate their business and employees. We believe the availability of high-quality, affordable and chemical free homes will enhance the citys ability to attract and retain new employers and their employees.

Tiny homes and economic development are a perfect match for progressive communities trying to reverse the trend of declining and aging population metrics. We have received very positive indications of interest in our tiny home development from a new company relocating to Walsenburg as well as out of state and local residents looking to semi-retire in a beautiful Colorado location.
