<br />. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />Retirement of the capital investment together with operation and <br />maintenance charges could be achieved by imposing a water use charge <br />of about $0.32 per thousand gallons. This is a reasonable charge and <br />well within the capability of the city of Gunnison to impose and collect. <br />RECOMMENDATION AND PRIORITY <br />It is recommended that an appropriation in the sum of $350,000 for <br />fiscal year 1975-76 be sought from the Colorado General Assembly to <br />enlarge the municipal water system of the city of Gunnison in accordance <br />with the explanation heretofore set forth. <br />The city of Gunnison does have a critical need to enlarge its <br />municipal water system at the earliest possible date. However, it is <br />not believed that this need is as critical at this time as the situ- <br />ations in Allenspark and Meeker. It is therefore recommended that the <br />Gunnison project be accorded the third priority for construction under <br />authority of the Colorado Water Conservation Board Construction Fund. <br /> <br />-6- <br />
