15-2025 - South Boulder Creek Regional Detention Facility

The Project is part of the City of Boulder’s efforts to reduce the damaging effects of a major flood. The Project aims to enhance the safety of community members and safeguard areas in the city prone to severe flooding from the South Boulder Creek drainageway. The primary objective is to mitigate the adverse effects of floods, providing protection for community members and crucial infrastructure such as US36 and Foothills Parkway, while minimizing impact on open space. This project will mitigate flooding for approximately 2,300 community members, 260 structures and 1,100 homes. It is anticipated for request for proposals to begin in quarter two of 2025 and construction kick off in quarters three and four of 2025.
