Welcome to the web site of the East Boulder County Water District
("District"). It is the major source for all information concerning the
District and its operation.
The District was formed by election of the residents of
Apollo Estates, Benchmark Estates, Panorama Park and Paragon Estates on November 2, 1999.
The District has been assigned Public Water System ID
#CO0107236. The election
established the initial Service Area and which properties initially
received water.
Additional properties have since included within the
District and on August 19, 2008, the Court approved the District's
Service Area Expansion to contain five properties off of Majestic
Drive. The initial delivery of water to these properties commenced on
November 23, 2009. This is the latest
District
Boundary Map.
Two major infrastructure improvements have been made
since the initial distribution system was established. A 100,000 gallon
storage tank to provide for fire-fighting and other large demands for
water entered service on June 9, 2005. A large-capacity booster pump to
meet the demands of fire-fighting and other large demands for
water entered service on January 17, 2008.

Some sections are under additional
development and will be added as they are completed. The reader
is encouraged to bring to the attention of the District's
web master any confusing information, discrepancies, or
errors found, or any information that should be added.
Specific changes are listed below:
- The
Archives have been
updated with all of the information from 2009.
- There is a bond refinance
discussion and decision during the January 11, 2010 Regular
Meeting. The objectives are to: lower the mill levy and the
associated total repayment cost of the remaining bonds by;
obtain $100,000 for the Long Term Capital Improvement
reserves in order to lower the water rates by not requiring
so much to be set aside in reserve. The bond underwriters
will present their analysis for the Board's decision.
- In the
Non-District Resident
portion of the "Doing Business with Us" page, it misstated
that an owner must purchase a tap from the District for the
Inclusion Petition to be approved. This was in conflict with
the Rules and Regulations. The wording has been
changed to point out that there is a risk that a water tap
might not be available at a date later than when the owner
was "Included" within the District, and that this risk is
totally the responsibility of the owner, and not the
District.

The web site has been designed to allow the reader
to change the size of the type on the page. This is done by going to the
"View menu" of the browser (e.g., Internet Explorer) and selecting "Text
Size" and choosing a size other than "Medium." This also
affects the size of the text when the page is printed. For those readers
with widescreen computer monitors, the page shape may be widened by
dragging the right window edge as desired. The information will reflow
to the new window size (if made too small, the information will not be
fully displayed). Other information is provided in Adobe Acrobat format,
requiring Adobe Acrobat Reader, which may be obtained free through
download
Adobe Reader.
Note: Where differences exist between this electronic
document and any official documents adopted by the District, the latter
shall be considered accurate and controlling. Every effort will be made
to correct such discrepancies when they are brought to the attention of
the District—see Contact Us.
