'administering the affairs of Weld County, Colorado, and
Whereas, pursuant to C.R.S. §42-4-106(6)(a), "...local authorities, with their respective
jurisdiction may, for the purpose of road construction and maintenance, temporarily close
to through traffic or to all vehicular traffic any highway or portion thereof for a period not
to exceed a specified number of work days for project completion and shall, in conjunction
with any such road closure establish appropriate detours or provide for an alternative
routing of the traffic affected...", and
Whereas, pursuant to said Statute and upon the basis of traffic and personnel

to through traffic and to regulate, warn and guide vehicular traffic by posting signs thereon,
with said closure being effective February 17, 2026, for approximately four (4) days for a

Now, therefore, be it resolved that the Board of County Commissioners of Weld County,

such traffic control devices as shall be reasonably necessary to regulate, warn, and/or
guide traffic thereon for the safety of the general public and that said traffic control devices

Be it further resolved that the Board of County Commissioners of Weld County,
Colorado, does declare and establish that County Road 61, between State Highway 52
