The Fremont County Board of Commissioners will conduct a special meeting this Thursday afternoon, September 1st, at 2 o’clock. The special meeting agenda will include two items for awarding public bids, 2006 budget discussion, and a landfill disposal issue.
The Commissioners will consider awarding of a bid for construction of the new outdoor arena at Pathfinder Park west of Florence. A $100,000 Great Outdoors Colorado grant is being used to finance construction of the arena. Bids were opened August 17th for a process in which contractors were asked to submit a proposal for a project design using basic specifications.
The Board is also scheduled to award a bid for an asphalt paving overlay project for another three mile stretch of County Road 11, the High Park Road to Cripple Creek. Two firms submitted bids for the project. A Colorado Gaming Impact grant is being used to pave the road. It is the third year of paving a section of High Park Road between Highway 9 and Teller County. A fourth year of paving will be necessary in the summer of 2006 to complete the entire overlay project.
The Commissioners will consider a request by Twin Landfill to dispose of chronic wasting diseased elk at Phantom Landfill and give an overview of the 2006 county budget process.
The special meeting at 2 p.m. September 1st will take place in the Commissioners’ meeting room on the lower level of the County Administration Building.
