An update on developments in the Larimer County Water Master Plan Project within the last year will be presented at a public open house by Larimer County Community Development in May.

The Larimer County Community Development team also invites public feedback on the progress that has been made and the future of the project.

Although Larimer County is not a water provider, it collaborates with the public and its partners on the Larimer County Water Master Plan https://www.larimer.gov/planning/water to use current and future water resources wisely.

The open house is scheduled for 6 - 8 p.m., May 1, 2024 in the Carter Lake meeting room on the First Floor of Larimer County Administrative Services Building, 200 W. Oak St., Fort Collins, Colorado.

Water resources in the West are critical for our prosperity, health, tourism, agriculture, and economic well-being, and the open house will update the public on the plan's progress in these and other areas. Increased population in Larimer County and Northern Colorado has strained both land and water resources for agricultural and municipal use.

The Water Master Plan Project began in mid-2023 after a previous Regional Water Study and other water resource events throughout Larimer County to produce a Vision and Goals draft for the Master Plan.
