Site work for a power facility in Longmont, Colorado. Conceptual plans call for site work for a power facility.

Design and construction of solar photovoltaic energy systems in one or more locations in the City to reduce the City's greenhouse gas emissions, support environmental stewardship, offset the City's electrical usage with a renewable energy resource and help meet the goals outlined in the Sustainability Plan and Climate Emergency Resolution. A solar photovoltaic feasibility study was completed in 2020 that recommended numerous installation types and locations. Staff have assumed the following for the solar installations: two land/field installations using a fixed tilt system (100% Electric Fund - $1,500,000) and two roof mounted installations using a fixed tilt system; one at the Waste Services Site (100% Sanitation Fund - $375,000) and one at the Airport Road Facility (30% Water, 30% Sewer, 30% Street, 10% Storm Funds - $375,000). The allocation of project costs to City Department funding resources is for illustration purposes and will be adjusted accordingly based on external funding, solar feasibility results, cost/benefit, and other relevant criteria. The project is shown as unfunded at this time. Staff will research grant and public/private partnership opportunities in order to secure funding, until and unless additional City funds become available. The City is moving forward with a solar installation at the wastewater treatment facility separate from this CIP since it will be funded out of existing funds in SWR149 and DOLA funding received in 2021 As of September 17, 2024, this project is in the City of Longmont Capital Budget FY 2024 - 2028 CIP. *Project information has been obtained through a public capital improvement plan (CIP). A CIP is a financial schedule for short- and long-range projects which is updated regularly. Information listed in the CIP often evolves based on funding availability and the project details, including timeline and value, are subject to change. The content management team will continue to pursue additional details as they become available.
