HB 25-1106

House Bill 25-1106, which has been signed into law, removes restrictions on collecting rainwater from rooftops of small residential properties in Colorado. Previously, residents could only collect up to 100 gallons of rainwater and had specific limitations on how it could be used. Now, homeowners with single-family homes or small multifamily buildings (4 units or fewer) can collect any amount of rainwater for any use on their property. This change benefits these homeowners by allowing them more flexibility in water conservation efforts.

The bill allows for collection of any amount of precipitation for any use on the property of a small residence.(Note: This summary applies to this bill as introduced.)
