Xcel Energy Edwards to Minturn Gas Line Replacement Project

Xcel Energy is hosting a public Open House on Thursday, June 2 from 6-8 pm at the Avon Public Library, 200 Benchmark Road, to provide a construction update as we replace eight miles of natural gas pipeline along U.S. Highway 6 between Edwards and Minturn. The presentation includes information about current and upcoming construction locations. We also want to hear the community's feedback and answer their questions.

Additional information, including weekly construction updates can be found online at www.xceledwards-minturnhpgaspipeline.com or 1-877-481-6380. We are trying to ensure that all members of the public have the opportunity to attend and are hoping you would post a brief calendar item on your website or send an email blast to your membership about this open house.

Be Bear Aware

Leaving your garbage at the curb the night before pick-up is breaking the law!

The town passed its first Wildlife Protection Ordinance effective April 1, 2005. This law requires residents and business owners to secure garbage containers with a wildlife resistant or wildlife proof system, or be kept within a fully enclosed and secure structure. Residents may place their containers at the curb at or after 6:00 a.m. on the morning of the pickup. Link here to read the Wildlife Protection Ordinance or the Division .
