Priorities 1., 3, and 4 can be included in Weld County's annual pavement maintenance contracts.
Based on the bids and revenue received into the Road Maintenance and Improvement Trust Fund
through July of 1997, Priorities 3 or 4 could be taken off of this year's projects.
Priority 2 will be performed by a consulting engineer under contract with the Town of Erie.
I request that the Commissioners and the Town Counsel approve the projects recommended by the

Sincerely,

REVIEW/ WORK SESSION REQUEST
RE: Recommendation from Erie Area Road Advisory Group
DEPARTMENT: PUBLIC WORKS DATE: April 15, 1997
PERSON REQUESTING: Drew
Brief description of the problem/issue:
In June of 1996, Weld County and the Town of Erie entered into an Agreement to share funds generated from the
Erie Area Solid Waste Disposal Sites. 1997 will be the first year that we fund projects under that Agreement. Each
year, the "Erie Area Road Advisory Group" is to recommend a list of projects to the County Commissioners and
the Erie Town Council for their approval. Attached is a letter from Leon Wurl and I recommending four projects
for 1997. On March 13, 1997, The Erie Town Council approved the recommendation.
Priority No. 2 in the recommendation was for an alignment study to connect WCR 8 to WCR 1 at Isabell Road.
The cost of the study was estimated to be $18,000. On April 1, 1997, the consulting firm of Felsburg, Holt &
Ullevig submitted a final proposal to the Town of Erie for $20,210. The increase of $2,210 should be acknowledged
in the Commissioners' approval of the 1997 recommendations.
What options exist for the Board? (Include consequences, impacts, costs, etc. of options)
1. Approval recommended projects including the $2,210 increase for the WCR 8 alignment study.
2. Reject recommendations.
Recommendation to the Board:
I recommend approval of the 1997 projects listed in the letter, along with the $2,210 increase for the WCR 8
alignment study.
Our chip seal projects are constructed in July and August. After the bids are received, I will check the fund balance
with Claud Hanes and make adjustments to stay within the fund. Considering the fact that approximately $45,000
was collected in the last one-half of 1996, which is when Sanifill started their operation, I doubt there will be any
problem.
