From the Longmont Times-Call (John Fryar):

Hundreds of Lyons families were able to begin moving back into their homes this weekend as utility crews circulated through several of the town’s neighborhoods to restore flood-interrupted natural gas, water and sewer service. And starting Monday, visitors from outside Lyons can once again get into town during daytime hours to resume patronizing the town’s businesses and visiting the town’s residents, according to town administrator Victoria Simonsen…

Power, gas, water and sewer service is back on in about half of Lyons’ neighborhoods now — most of them north of Main Street — and other residents of the area are expected to be returning in phases as their neighborhoods’ utilities are back working in the weeks ahead.
