TOWN OF ESTES PARK -WATER RIGHTS:
Mr.Wheeler and Mr.Chilson discussed with the Committee the strong
possibility of greatly increasing the Town’s water use by submitting
a plan of augmentation to the Courts.This would involve determining
the Town’s water depletion rate or consumptive use,establishing a
plan to return to the stream the amount actually depleted,and obtaining
Water Court approval.The Committee recommends Mr.Wheeler and Mr.
Chilson be authorized to pursue the Town’s interest in this water
rights matter.
There being no further business,the meeting adjourned.
