City Council Reaches Consensus to Restart PRRI Master Plan

On May 26, 2026, Greeley City Council reached consensus to restart work on the Poudre River Restoration Initiative Master Plan to complete the master planning and Capital Improvement Plan project. This funding comes from Quality of Life dollars and does not affect the City’s need to reduce the general fund by $18 million.

Council emphasized that the top priority of this work is reducing flood risk and improving life safety for the community. The updated approach reflects a clearer vision, stronger interdepartmental coordination, and a broader stakeholder engagement structure to help keep the project focused and actionable. The proposal includes an interdepartmental steering committee, a Watershed Stakeholder Alliance, a community network, and governance and advisory boards. It will also build on community survey feedback gathered during Phases 1 and 2.
