04/28/26 City Council Special Meeting

The City of Louisville, Colorado held a special City Council meeting on April 28, 2026, which included a joint session with the Recreation Advisory Board to discuss priorities and capital projects related to city recreational facilities. Key procurement-related discussions focused on the potential funding and development of a new clubhouse at the Cole Creek Golf Course, with council members debating the feasibility, user benefits, and funding mechanisms including possible nonprofit fundraising. The council also reviewed the 2026 water, wastewater, and stormwater utility rates, noting no rate changes were recommended for the year but highlighting risks from drought and capital project costs. The council discussed the need for gradual rate increases and maintaining reserve funds to support infrastructure projects. Additionally, the meeting covered potential ballot measures including a historic preservation tax renewal and a local marketing district tax, with council members considering task force formation and stakeholder representation to guide these initiatives. Several charter amendments related to election processes and public meeting protocols were also introduced for future discussion. No formal votes on procurement contracts were recorded, but multiple action items were identified for further study and budget planning related to capital improvements and fee structures.
