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,

9th Street & 9th Ave.
Greeley, Colorado
Dear Commissioner Kirby;
In accordance with our discussion regarding signs , the Town Board requests
the installation of signs for two intersections because motorists have been
confused regarding turns to the Town of Frederick.
1 . Intersection of new County Rd. 13 at County Rd. 16
A sign should be placed on the west side of Rd. 13 for south bound traffic
approximately 200 ft. north of the intersection of County Rd. 16. Another
sign should be placed on the east side of County Rd. 13 for the north bound
traffic at a location approximately 200 tt. south of County Rd. 16. Both of
these signs shall have an arrow on the east side of the sign pointing eastward
and shall read 'Frederick' in 12 inch letters in white on green background.
The next line shall read 'Central Area' in 6" white letters.
2. At the northeast corner of the intersection at State Highway 52 and
old County Rd. 13 a similiar sign visiable from both directions should be
placed in accordance with the State of Colorado, Division of Highways Rules
and Regulations pertaining to outdoor advertising effective January 1 , 1984.
In this , III , GG specifies that the county commission may pass a resolution
stating that:.
a. Such a sign is appropriate.
b. That the county requests a license for the installation of such
a sign.
c. That the city or the county will errect and maintain the sign.
This resolution should be forwarded to the State Highway Department for
processing.
Since the Town Board feels that these signs are very important, it is hoped
that these requests can be processed forthwith. Thank you for your cooperation
in this matter.
