Firestone Board Embarks on Strategic Water Plan
and it’s Getting Noticed


In the Spring of 2020, the Board of Trustees approved the 2020-2050 Water Action Plan, which set in motion the first concrete plans to fully diversify the Town’s raw water portfolio, become less reliant upon a single Central Weld County Water District source, build a water treatment plant, develop and expand raw water reservoir storage, drill an alluvial well field, and generally embark on a water course that affords the Town greater independence and control. Over the past several weeks, the St. Vrain Water Treatment Plant and our story about implementing the Water Action Plan have been in the news. 

  • February 10, 2022: BizWest/Longmont Times-Call - Firestone will soon treat water at its own facility

  • March 3, 2022: The Colorado Sun - A once-small Colorado mining town is going through a growth spurt. Can the water supply keep up?

  • March 4, 2022: WaterWorld - Digging Up New Water Sources

Water

In Firestone, we are planning for sustainable growth.  Growth that adds value to our community.  That value comes in many forms – amenities like parks, trails, open spaces, additional shopping, and employment opportunities.  And the ability to plan for and implement necessary capital improvements.  These all require the Town to focus on expanding and diversifying its revenue base.  Water is a critical piece of that plan.
