Arapahoe County is considering a change to its water rules that would require developers to supply much higher amounts to be able construct new properties.
The county is currently in the middle of an 18-month study to try to determine its water supply and needs in the future.
The 300-year rule means developers would have to provide documentation about their water sources and a letter from the Colorado Division of Water Resources that vouch for the supply and guarantee that it is adequate for three centuries. Currently, the county requires developers to have a 200-year supply, while the state sets its minimum at 100 years.
Part of that management picture is looking at water through a regional lens instead of a city-by-city or county-by-county approach. Along with water supply and management, water demand and use are important parts of the conversation.
