COUNCILS AND COMMITTEES

About this Committee

The Larimer County Habitat Partnership Program (formerly Northern Larimer County HPP) formed and completed its initial management plan in 2002. The Larimer County committee area has seen many changes to wildlife habitat as a result of population growth, expansion of recreation, and subsequent habitat fragmentation. The committee will continue to monitor and adapt to these changes, and projects will be implemented wherever the committee believes that they will effectively reduce or eliminate big game conflicts and assist CPW in achieving game management objectives.

In 2015 the Commission approved a temporary expansion of the committee boundary south to the Boulder County Line. The expansion was intended to provide HPP as an option to elk conflicts that were occurring south of the original committee boundary area. Elk conflicts in that area have since decreased but there is still potential to complete proactive projects that will prevent new conflicts from surfacing as well as assist CPW with game management objectives in this area.
