About the Pueblo Conservancy District
The Pueblo Conservancy District was formed per the Conservancy Law of Colorado (Title 37, Article 1, CRS) to reduce flood risk, conserve or develop water resources, or participate in the development of parks or recreational facilities. The Pueblo Conservancy District may spend district revenues, including from its construction and maintenance funds, for the following purposes, in the following order of priority: First for the maintenance, repair, replacement, or improvement of the district's existing flood control levees; Second, for flood mitigation projects located in whole or part within the district, whether capital or otherwise, in the affected watershed upstream of the district's existing flood control levees; and Third, for flood mitigation projects located in whole or part within the district, whether capital or otherwise, in the affected watershed downstream of the district's existing flood control levees. In addition to protecting the land from flooding, the District can participate in the development of parks and recreational facilities, trails, greenways and riverfronts and can participate in artistic and beautification projects of waterways within the boundaries of the District.
