Box 435 Frederick, CO 80530 Dear Mr. McGinn: I presented your request for placing signs in Weld County rights-of-way to the Board of Weld County Commissioners at a work session. The Commissioners have no objection to signs being placed. However, the signs must be placed by the Town of Frederick at the town's expense. Also, the signs must be in conformance with the Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices and because of the size of the proposed signs they must be erected in conformance with the Colorado Department of Highways standards. A copy of the signs standard is attached. I contacted Dewey Norfleet of the Colorado Highway Department in Greeley. Mr. Norfleet would handle the issuance of permits for our area. He recommends all signs be placed within Weld County rights-of-way adjacent to State Highway 52. That will keep the permitting effort at a minimum. As you know, a Resolution from the Board of Weld County Commissioners will be required. If the Town of Frederick intends to proceed with the project, please contact me and I will arrange for a Resolution by the Commissioners. If you have any questions please contact me. cerely, Drew L.
