Danaswan, 9UO vas drawn • M mow 1 v MEMORAIMU Mi t Board of County ro Commissioners Dee March 14 , 1990 COLORADO From Bruce T. Barker, Assistant Weld County Attorney Request for Approval of Tourist Oriented subject Directional Sign (TODS) by Phil Worthington Mr. Phil Worthington has requested the Board of County Commissioners to approve the placement of a Tourist Oriented Directional Sign (TODS) within the right-of-way of U.S. Highway 34 . Mr. Worthington owns the Greeley Campground and RV Park which is located on the Frontage Road of U.S. 34 Bypass, 3/4 of a mile east of the U.S . 85 Bypass. He says that tourists have a hard time finding and getting to his campground because of its location. Therefore , he wants to place a sign so that people will be aware of the campground ' s location. The State of Colorado has adopted the Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices. The Manual includes a portion on TODS. The Department of Highways has also adopted its own Rules and Regulations for TODS. Attached you will find a copy of the cover sheet for the Rules and Regulations , which includes an example of a TODS. As you can see, the TODS is designed to hold information regarding four businesses. Each business gets a space which is 18 inches in height and 72 inches wide. The total size of the sign comes to 6 feet by 6 feet. The sign is entirely located within the State controlled right-of-way. Mr. Worthington proposes that the sign be erected somewhere near the intersection of the U.S . 34 Bypass and U.S. 34 Business highways . The State Department of Highways erects the sign and maintains it. The applicant and the three other business owners each pay a fee. The fee is designed to cover the total cost of the erection of the sign and its maintenance. At present, the Department of Highway charges $300.00 for the sign and a $50.00 application fee. Once the sign is erected, each business owner who has information included on the sign pays $50 .00 per year for maintenance of the sign. You are probably now asking why the Board of County Commissioners of Weld County has anything to do with the placement of this sign. The reason for the Board' s involvement is that the application includes a sign-off by the local authority. Attached you will find a copy of the application by Mr. Worthington and a cover letter. The sign-off is required by Section 43-1-420 (3) , C.R.S . I have asked Chuck Cunliffe if the erection of this sign will require any permits or be regulated by any of Weld County ' s ordinances or codes. Given that the sign will be located entirely within the State controlled right-of-way and will be erected by 900255 the Department of Highways, it will not be covered by any of Weld County's codes and/or regulations. I therefore recommend that the Board authorize the Chairman' s signature on the application submitted by Phil Worthington. ce T.
