THE 30-SECOND BRIEF
City leaders reported meeting with CBS Colorado’s Kevin Strong and noted that federal legislation H.R. 7567, the Agriculture Appropriations Bill, includes funding to "finish the conduit" for the Arkansas Valley Conduit. The water fund also carries a $75,000 budget line for Arkansas Valley Conduit work in 2026. This indicates that La Junta is positioning itself for federally funded water supply and conveyance improvements, and may need engineering, environmental, financial, and program management support as conduit projects move from legislation to design and construction.
Representative Lauren Boebert helped pass the bill; city expects it cannot be vetoed as part of the appropriations package.
