RV Dump Station

On January 3, 2023 Town Council voted to approve keeping the current facility open with additional traffic calming measures and assess possible relocation if the Whetstone utility extension occurs 

The Town of Crested Butte is discussing the future of the RV Dump Station utilizing the Community Compass decision-making framework and we encourage community participation in this discussion. 

 

Step 1: Define the Problem and Goal Statement

  • May 17, 2021 – Town Council Directed staff to re-open the RV Dump Station for a two-year period to allow time to develop and implement a regional solution for the RV dump station.
  • Sustainable Tourism & Outdoor Recreation Committee (STOR) – RV Dump Station sub-committee did not identify an alternative location for the facility.
  • Goal: Town Staff is preparing 2023 Capital Budget and is seeking direction from the Town Council for the future use of the RV Dump Station, given that an alternative location was not identified.
