Laramie River Restoration Project Update The third and final construction season of the Laramie River Restoration Project is scheduled to begin on Tuesday September 6th, We will start with site 31 (see map on the Laramie River Restoration Project WEB site), and work downstream (north), hoping to complete the project around the end of October. There will be many opportunities for volunteering to help harvest willows for transplant and you can follow our progress through our interactive FaceBook page for the Laramie River Restoration Project. Many thanks go out to the City, County, Laramie Beautification Committee, Parks and Rec. staff, and dozens of other people and organizations who have helped make this project a huge success! More information on the Laramie River Restoration project is available here on the Water Quality/Quantity page. You can also access the Laramie River Facebook page here, which has up to the minute information on the project. |

LRCD Takes on Another Big Community Improvement Project At a special meeting of the LRCD Board of Supervisors on December 6, 2011 the board voted to exercise an option-to-buy on the 4.6 acre, former Midwest/Standard refinery property at 971 N. Cedar St. on Laramie’s west side. This property has been an eyesore and dangerous community nuisance for decades. With the winding down of the Laramie River Restoration Project the LRCD Board has been discussing the purchase and cleanup of this property for almost a year. |
