US Army Reserve Center is coming to Loveland. With $13.6 million in funds allocated to this project in the Defense Authorization Bill signed into law Dec 31. According to an article in the Fort Collins Coloradoan written by Bobby Magill (bobbymagill@coloradoan.com) the project was originally set for the Fort Collins area. However, Loveland is actually where the new training center will be built as stated by Army Reserve spokeswoman Angel Wallace.
The offical award of the project is expected in March 2012 and the construction duration will last approximately 18 months. With a projected move-in date of September 2013.
This facility will be a 150 member training center that is to replace a current facility in the Fort Collins area. We welcome the 409th Engineer Company along with their 150 Army Reservists.
This is yet another fantastic boost to the Northern Colorado area. With the mega sized Leprino Cheese Facility joining us in Greeley, Co and now this project - I suspect we will see a lot of relocations to this area within the next few years and growth will be unavoidable. Let us not forget that Kaiser Permanente is also joining us in the Loveland and Fort Collins area as they work within the Banner Health (McKee Medical) System.
