Castle Rock’s population has topped the 50,000 mark, according to Town staff estimates

This announcement was recently made by the Town Manager for Castle Rock, Colorado. 

This is a significant milestone in the growth and evolution of the community, Town Manager Mark Stevens said in a memo to Town Council.

The estimated population of 50,028 as of the end of January makes Castle Rock the 17^th largest incorporated municipality in the state, and the largest municipality to call itself a Town. Our designation as a Town is established in the Town Charter, and there is no meaningful distinction between a town and city.

Castle Rock incorporated in 1881, with 88 residents. At the 1990 Census, the Town had 8,708 residents. Significant population growth has occurred since then, with the population reaching 20,224 at the 2000 Census and 48,231 at the 2010 Census.

The Town’s latest population estimate is not an official designation by any regional, state or federal agency. Town estimates have proven fairly accurate, however, and were only off by 700 residents at the 2010 Census.

The Town estimates that our buildout eventually will occur at about 100,000 residents, meaning that we are at the midpoint on our journey to becoming that community, Stevens said.

Not only is the milestone historically significant, but it also means that the Town may have enhanced economic development opportunities, as some companies only consider communities with 50,000 or more residents acceptable locations for business development.

January 25th, 2012

The Douglas County Sheriff’s Office is excited to announce our commitment to the education of the youth of Douglas County; Sheriff David A.

The Sheriff’s Office considers this an investment in the future and believes we are helping to provide deserving students with an opportunity to make a positive contribution to society. The scholarships are funded through money raised at the 2010 Douglas County Sheriff’s Office Shoot-Out at Sanctuary Golf Tournament fundraiser and a portion of moneys raised in the 2011 Charity Shoot-Out, put on by members of the Douglas County Sheriff’s Office (this event added $250 to each scholarship for 2012).

The scholarship program is broken down into three separate categories:

SAVE THE DATE – Wednesday, November 2, 2011 – 150th Anniversary Celebration and more October 26th, 2011 Months before the actual 150th anniversary date, much has been said and done acknowledging this significant milestone. The celebration continues as we recognize Douglas County’s notoriety as one of the original 17 territorial Counties in the state. A committee of County employees has been in place most of the year, working on various 150th Anniversary events and activities to maximize the opportunity for the public and employees to participate. Four commemorative activities remain: 1. An online Heritage Hunt Trivia Contest – created by the County’s Historic Preservation Board and staff – to promote awareness of the County’s historic landmarks. The public is invited to participate in the trivia contest www.douglas.co.us/150/ and incentives are being offered to encourage participation. While employees and family members are encouraged and welcome to participate in the contest, employees and family members are not eligible for the prizes. 2. Save the Date and Celebrate with CAKE! On Wednesday, November 2 – the day after the actual date of the County’s 150th anniversary – County employees will be treated to ceremonial cakes placed throughout all facilities – but unlike the Heritage Hunt Trivia Contest, you won’t have to hunt for cake . 3. You will also notice that the County flag will fly at the Philip S. Miller Building from Nov. 1, 2011 through the end of the year. 4. Prairie Canyon Ranch PSA – Release of a public service announcement (PSA) celebrating the County’s historic preservation efforts – featuring the restoration of the Prairie Canyon Ranch barn. Here is the link to view the PSA: http://vimeo.com/25469646
