At this week's City Council meeting, Council gave initial approval for a City staff recommendation to participate in the Northern Integrated Supply Project (NISP) through a one-year interim agreement — which would replace the City's approach to expand Halligan Reservoir.
We are proud of the work we’ve done toward the Halligan Project, and we are committed to prioritizing the City's long-term financial sustainability. Transitioning to NISP provides more certainty and affordability — both for the City organization and for our water customers.
Community conversations and outreach will be scheduled in the coming weeks. For more information, visit FortCollins.gov/News-Article….
