Water
Our Life Blood in Colorado

Water in La Plata County is an important consideration in deciding the future of our County. Water plays an essential role in the development of new residential and commercial projects.

Properly managing our water resources to make sure we keep our water pure and plentiful is a responsibility Kellie takes very seriously as a County Commissioner. Water is also a key element to the La Plata County agricultural community.

To support the current efforts in La Plata County to enhance sustainable living initiatives, Kellie believes that we need to protect water rights for agriculture uses. In addition to water rights, Kellie advocates that wells and aquifers be protected from unnecessary depletion.
