State of the Utility 2024 - Colorado Springs Utilities

Colorado Springs Utilities will host a public open house on June 6, 2024, to provide a snapshot of how the utility is planning for the future. The event will feature an address from Chief Executive Officer Travas Deal called, “State of the Utility: A Sustainable Future Built on a Legacy of Service.”
The event is free and open to the public. It is scheduled from 2:30 to 4:30 p.m. at COS City Hub, 4304 Austin Bluffs Parkway.
The State of the Utility comes at a key moment in Springs Utilities’ history. The organization is celebrating its 100th anniversary amid major changes in the utility industry. These nationwide changes will have significant impacts on the future of water and energy services and the way these vital services are delivered to customers.
Water and energy services are essential to Colorado Springs’ ability to thrive as a city, yet regulatory changes, resource limitations, technological advancements and changing customer expectations bring both opportunities and challenges.
“As a community-owned utility deeply rooted in our city for 100 years, it’s critical that our path ahead is completely transparent,” said Deal. “So, as we embark on this journey to secure safe, clean and reliable water and energy resources for the next 100 years, it’s important that we share these plans with as many of our customers as possible.”
The event agenda includes both an open house and a formal presentation:
