An existing Larimer County drainage channel Wins trough the''QJater Treatment Facility property.
The City is currently working on4be design-and construction-`f an estimated $50 million Master
Plan Improvements Project for new facilities and improvements to existing facilities. The existing
drainage channel is in conflict with the location of the planned facilities which need to be adjacent
to existing facilities and piping. Discussion with Larimer County and researching existing and
potentihl conflicts in the area resulted in the new alignment(See attached map). Acquisition of the
easement and relocation of the drainage channel must precede the beginning of Master Plan
Facilities construction which is scheduled for 2000 and which is necessary to meet the needs of the
citizens of Fort Collins. The relocation of the drainage channel is scheduled to begin January, 1999.
