The Fort Carson Regional Growth Plan assesses the current capacity and future demands of utilities and infrastructure and makes recommendations on ways to meet the needs of the installation and the surrounding communities as the region grows.

A Utilities Partnership Group meets on an as-needed basis to help inform this analysis.

Phase I Overview (July 2008)
The complete Phase I Growth Plan, which includes the following chapters on reports on Public Utilities and Infrastructure, is available for download here:

  • Public Utilities and Infrastructure Services Chapter
  • Public Utilities and Infrastructure Technical Report
  • Public Utilities and Infrastructure Recommendations

Phase II Overview (July 2010)
The Phase II Growth Plan supplemental report notes that overall, utilities in the region are working with Fort Carson and have developed plans to address infrastructure and supply needs for Fort Carson and related off-post growth. However, because of the economic downturn, some utilities have had to delay infrastructure projects to meet growth-related needs. Additional information is available in the Phase II Supplemental report available for download here.

Phase III – Ongoing Implementation

PPACG continues to work with Fort Carson and local utilities to monitor ongoing regional impacts of Fort Carson and other growth and sustainability-related issues. This coordination is being conducted as part of the Pikes Peak Regional Sustainability Project (PPRSP). Please click here for more information.
