Morgan County conditionally approves Fort Morgan wastewater treatment plant amendment with construction conditions
Summary
The Board conditionally approved an amendment to the use‑by‑special‑review permit for the City of Fort Morgan’s wastewater treatment plant, requiring updated CDPHE permits, canal agreements, a road‑use agreement for County Road 22, and building/floodplain permits before construction.
The Board of County Commissioners voted Oct. 21 to conditionally approve an amendment to the City of Fort Morgan’s special use permit for its wastewater treatment plant at 18169 County Road 22 (Resolution 2025 BCC 39). Planning staff, which had recommended conditional approval following a Planning Commission public hearing, said the amendment updates and expands the existing facility.
The board’s approval is subject to multiple conditions: the owner must submit the updated Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment (CDPHE) permit to the county planning department within 10 days of receipt; provide any executed agreements with the Upper Platte and Beaver Canal; enter into a road‑use agreement with Morgan County covering maintenance of County Road 22 during construction; and obtain required building and floodplain permits before construction begins. The board’s findings state the amendment conforms to the county comprehensive plan and that impacts are mitigated by the listed conditions.
Commissioners approved Resolution 2025 BCC 39 by a 3‑0 vote and retained continuing jurisdiction to ensure compliance with required conditions and county regulations.
