Water Board Meeting September 21, 2026

The City of Longmont Water Board met on September 21, 2026. The board reviewed three conveyance plats in the same general area; staff reported they were in compliance. Members voted to recommend City Council approval, with the motion specifically naming the conveyance plat for 701 South Main associated with Front Range Community College and the Longmont Transit Center. The transcript is unclear whether the vote covered all three plats. No contract awards, vendor selections, or bid approvals were identified.

Staff reported that City Council had approved the board’s recommended increase to the cash-in-lieu water fee, from $59,625 to $63,000 per acre-foot, effective January 1. The board discussed future water-supply and infrastructure considerations, including possible Union Reservoir enlargement and a pumpback pipeline, as well as Beckwith diversion and creek-corridor improvements; no funding or procurement action was taken on these items. The board also discussed evaluating water-use conservation results and a campaign offering eligible customers a $50 bill credit for conservation commitments.
