PIM To Board Date April 30 , 1984
COLORADO From Clerk to the Board' s Office
Subject: Emergency Road Closures
Because of the many road closures which have been necessary, the
Engineering Department is requesting that they be considered by
the Board as one item so that only one Resolution will be neces-
sary.
I checked with Lee Morrison, Assistant County Attorney, and he
said that so long as the roads were all closed for the same
reason, he could foresee no problem with putting them all on
one Resolution.
The list of all the roads to be included is attached.
Thank you,
