About the District

The Longs Peak Water District (District) was organized as a Water Association in 1960, and changed to a single purpose special district under the laws of the State of Colorado in 1991. Its sole purpose is to provide domestic water service to its customers and tapholders. It is a nonprofit quasimunicipal corporation and takes pride in its ability to maintain fair water rates and to fund all of its operations from water revenues and fees. The District has never had to establish a mill levy on property within the District to pay for bond issues or operating costs and this philosophy still prevails on the Board of Directors.

Board of Directors

The District's Board of Directors is elected by the electors of the District. The Board sets the policies for the District and these policies are implemented by District Staff. The District Board of Directors meets once each month -- usually on the third Thursday of each month at 9:00 a.m. at the District offices to conduct their regular business meeting. These meetings are open to the public and the public is invited to attend all meetings.

Manager of the District

The Manager of the District is an employee of the District and is hired by the Board. The Manager is responsible to the Board to implement the policies established by the Board.

Tapholders of the District

The tapholders of the District are its customers and the sole reason the District exists today. They are encouraged to review the Bylaws, Policies, and Regulations of the District and to comment on those portions which affect them. Their review and comments will be helpful to the Board of Directors in establishing the direction of the District in years to come. In this regard, all tapholders should feel free to place their views in writing, or to attend one of the regular Board meetings to discuss the matter with the Directors.
