Development Process

Currently under Review

The City of Lafayette owns two parcels of property located in unincorporated Boulder County immediately west of the existing City water reclamation facility.

One of the properties is an approximately 100-foot by 1,475-foot strip of former railroad right-of-way purchased by the City in 2020. The other property is a 2.79-acre parcel addressed as 760 E. County Line Road.

The City is interested in annexing the properties to eventually expand the existing water reclamation plant onto the city-owned properties. The request includes zoning the subject properties and right-of-way P-Public.

In addition to the annexation and zoning of the property, the city is reviewing the site plan for the plant expansion. The plan includes new basis, a pump station, storage building, filtering building, waste solids building, and other equipment for the treatment plant.
