DENVER—Summit County authorities are demanding that the Denver Water Board immediately open a road along Dillon Reservoir or they will issue an order that could lead to criminal charges.
The Lake Dillon Fire Protection District issued a notice of violation to the water board Tuesday. Denver and Summit County officials met during the day to discuss long-term solutions to the dispute over the road.
Dillon Reservoir in Summit County is the primary source of Denver’s water. The water board put up gates because of security concerns.
Summit County says the gates violate fire codes and are a safety hazard.
The Denver Water Board says it’s reviewing the notice.
