However,one of the roads on that list not in Weld County's jurisdiction is WCR 30. WCR 30 is in Platteville's jurisdiction. Therefore,the attached IGA with Platteville is to assist both our agencies, by supporting the Town with money to assist with a future road connection needed as a result of closing WCR 30 and advancing the implementation of our IGA with CDOT,which gets CDOT closer to securing US 85 in a permanent easement. As a result, on October 1,Platteville approved this IGA and agreed to authorize CDOT on their behalf to submit a petition to close WCR 30 to the PUC. Weld County is responsible for transmitting$1,000,000 to Platteville. The $1,000,000 comes from state funds through CDOT. Public Works has invoiced CDOT for the $1,000,000 to transfer to Platteville after the IGA is executed. What options exist for the Board? (include consequences,impacts, costs,etc. of options): a Allow the attached agreement to be placed on the next available BOCC agenda for signature. • Request a work session to discuss.
