Our April meeting included soup, salad and sandwiches followed by our business and announcements. Then we were treated to a rain barrel presentation with lots of great information about why and how to use rain barrels. Residential properties of a single house or multi-family residences with four units or less are allowed to collect up to 110 gallons of rainwater at a time using a maximum of 2 rain barrels for outdoor onsite non-potable water reuse applications. No permit is required (HB16-1005; Colo. Rev. Stat. § 37-96.5-103).
