<br />. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />Memorandum <br />Loveland ,Water Study File <br />August 1, 1988 <br /> <br />The Phase II alternatives analysis resulted in a <br />recommendation that the City acquire additional COlorado-,Big <br />Thompson project shares and expand the existing Green Ridge <br />Glade Reservoir (see the Phase II report and my memo to the <br />file of December 22, 1987). The City staff has indicated that <br />they favor the Phase II recommendations and that they would <br />like to proceed to a Phase III study of the Green Ridge Glade <br />expansion. <br /> <br />The Loveland Water Board, however, is in the process of <br />considering other alternatives such as a joint reservoir <br />project (with other cities in the northern Front Range) on the <br />Little Thompson or the Cache la Poudre. The Maitland Canyon <br />option has also been the subject of additional study since the <br />Phase II report was completed. On July 18th of this year, the <br />Water Board voted to postpone indefinitely Phase III of the <br />water supply study to allow the City the opportunity to <br />consider other options. <br /> <br />In addition, the Water Boar~ and City staff have indicated <br />the City does not now have suff~cient funds for a major capital <br />investment. The Water Board is considering a rate increase to <br />provide, in part, for raw water system expansion. <br /> <br />On July 21, I briefly discu6sed repayment of CWCB study <br />costs with Dick Leffler. Any construction work on Green Ridge <br />Glade or Maitland Canyon would cequire repayment of CWCB study <br />costs. I also indicated that because of the very general <br />nature of the Phase I study, any raw water system expansion <br />might be considered as a basis tor repayment of study costs. <br /> <br />Ibj <br /> <br />,2' <br />
