Laramie-Poudre Irrigation Project Falls to Greeley Builders
A new Enterprise Construction firm led by D. A. Camfield J. McCreery and Charles H. Wheel takes over the Laramie Poudre Reservoir and Irrigation Company assets. The plan envisions 60 000 to 100 000 acres of irrigation district across Weld and Larimer counties with a multi million dollar system stretching toward the Wyoming line. The venture aims to water the Poudre Valley and possibly join Big Poudre schemes, with bond work handled by Trowbridge Ie bond brokers. Completion expected in about two years, transforming the region’s irrigation and storage capacity.
