Closures and Altered Schedules
All City offices and most facilities will be closed on Monday, January 19, 2026 in observance of Martin Luther King Jr. Day. Some service schedules will also be altered. Read the complete details.
This project connects and “loops” new waterline along the Schmer and McWhinney properties off Eisenhower with our existing system, allowing water to flow through multiple paths when needed and improving both water quality and system reliability for our customers.
Crews started in mid-April on the west side of the city and moved east until complete. Here's more info about the project, which included an interactive map so customers could see when hydrant flushing would reach their neighborhood.
Using contracted teams from AGL Construction to inspect and catalog water service line material using potholing methods. Here's more info about the project.
The sanitary sewer line beneath Sweetheart Alley was originally installed in the 1920s. The line reached the end of its useful life and was replaced. Here's more info about the project.
A holistic customer survey was sent to Water and Power customers to give comprehensive feedback on our performance and goals for the future. Here's more info about the project.
Loveland's Wastewater Treatment Plant is now known as the Loveland Water Reclamation Facility. Learn more about the completed expansion project below.
Project Overview
The Wastewater Treatment Plant Biological Nutrient Removal (BNR) and Digester Improvements project evolved through the need to meet three main objectives:
Meeting regulatory requirements for the reduction of nitrogen and phosphorus released to the Big Thompson River.
Increasing capacity to meet population growth. The plant will be re-rated from 10 million gallons per day (MGD) to 12 MGD allowing for an additional 15 to 20 years of growth.
Replacement of aging infrastructure.
The project utilized the Collaborative Project Delivery model referred to in the industry as Construction Manager-at-Risk (CMAR).

Project Overview
Colorado Department of Transportation (CDOT) and Loveland Water and Power (LWP) made system improvements and rebuilt infrastructure damaged in the 2013 flood, including Circuit 911. Crews implemented the Circuit 911 voltage conversion project in three phases. The project included a variety of system improvements including installing new overhead power lines, repairing damaged infrastructure and replacing/rerouting existing overhead power lines.
The voltage conversion project provides customer with the following benefits:
Improved power quality – less voltage fluctuations.
Improved reliability – overhead lines built to ‘raptor-safe’ construction standards resulting in fewer outages and shorter duration outages.
Ease of maintenance – positioning service drop transformers to front of lot locations, where possible, provides better access for LWP crews and reduces downtime during outages.
