From the Glenwood Springs Post Independent (John Gardner):

The city is finalizing the remaining steps in the process before construction can begin, after months of delays halted the project. But it looks like things are back on track. According to City Manager Jeff Hecksel, the bond sale issued by the Colorado Water Development and Power Authority was issued Thursday, bringing the project one step closer to beginning construction. Hecksel said that everything is nearly in place, and only a few steps remain before work can begin on the new wastewater plant. Those steps include closing on the financing with the water and power authority, scheduled to take place on May 10. And the city still has to issue a notice to proceed, but Hecksel said that is likely to happen very soon. “The contracts have been signed,” he said. “We just have not issued the notice to proceed but we are looking at doing that in the immediate future.”
