City Purchases Open Space Near Union Reservoir

The City of Longmont took another step forward to further develop its eastern urban shaping buffer and protect high quality agricultural lands and sensitive wildlife areas by purchasing 191 acres of land located at the southwest corner of Union Reservoir.  The Council approved this purchase agreement with the landowner, Chris Adrian, at the October 13 City Council meeting; the transaction closed and the deeds to the City of Longmont were recorded at Weld County on Wednesday, December 2, 2009. Acquisition of this key parcel constitutes a significant accomplishment by the City in its efforts to preserve land adjacent to the City’s eastern boundary and near Union Reservoir. The $8.0 million property purchase will preserve this land in its current condition as prime agriculture land while also providing the land needed for several key City initiatives.
