CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION
(Immediately Following the Regular Council Meeting)
A) CALL MEETING TO ORDER
B) ITEMS FOR DISCUSSION
1. Water Adequacy Determination Regulations.
The purpose of this item is to discuss a draft Ordinance to amend the Fort Collins Land Use Code
to include regulations for water adequacy determinations for new development and redevelopment.
The draft regulations are divided into three different categories: one for established potable water
supply entities, one for new potable water supply entities, and one for non-potable water supply
entities. The goal is to comply with Colorado state statute (C.R.S. Section 29-20-301, et seq.) and
to make sure development has the necessary water supply.
Water is a crucial and constrained resource, and the City strives to ensure that development meets
the community’s vision and expectations for responsible resource management. City Plan includes
policies to ensure water is used wisely and our community is prepared for a changing climate.
Currently, development within the City only occurs within the boundaries of existing City (Fort
Collins Utilities) and special district potable water supply entities, such as Fort Collins-Loveland
Water District and East Larimer County Water District. A project is determined to have an adequate
water supply through the issuance of a “will serve” letter from the established potable water supply
entity at the time of development plan or building permit approval.
The necessity for an updated water adequacy review program stems from the limited suppl y and
high cost of water resources, which have resulted in developers pursuing more creative ways to
provide both potable and non-potable water to their proposed developments, particularly projects
striving to provide affordable housing or the denser development patterns called for in City Plan.
