SB 23-238

Senate Bill 23-238, also known as the Small Communities Water and Wastewater Grant Fund Act, allows Colorado to use state funds to match federal grants for water and wastewater projects in small communities. This means that towns can get more money for improving their clean water systems by combining both state and federal funding. The bill was signed into law on April 25, 2023, and is now effective, meaning it's being implemented to help these communities access additional resources for essential infrastructure improvements.
