This one, they came in on April or August 5, and then they actually just left on Saturday. So they have removed themselves from the fairgrounds now. It was a total of 12 days,\" Justin said, identifying the users as the Ute Mountain Ute Agency and the Bureau of Indian Affairs.

A second agreement is with the U.S. Department of Agriculture Forest Service. Justin said the USDA Forest Service brought the Rocky Mountain Complex Incident Management Team 1 to work on the Stoner Mesa Fire. \"They came in on August 13 to utilize the fairgrounds. They brought in what's called the Rocky Mountain Complex Incident Management Team 1 to work on the Stoner Mesa Fire. They anticipate a 14 day stay, but that's just gonna kind of be dependent on their outlooks in the next couple weeks,\" Justin said.

Justin said the agreements specify the county’s rate and fee schedule for use of the facilities and any additional reimbursable costs, and he asked commissioners for signatures on the land-use agreements. Staff said they had received positive feedback from the fire teams about the facility’s suitability and that only a few scheduled events (barrel racing and a canning class) had to be moved or combined because of the deployments.

Robinson said the membership list must be approved by the county commissioners and that, once approved, she will send it to the chief judge, who will issue an administrative order appointing the members to two-year terms. \"The membership list that I have proposed to you, it does need to be approved by our board of commissioners,\" Robinson said, and she added that Dolores County approved its side that morning.

Commissioners had no substantive objections to the membership slate and asked for clarification about one named organization. A commissioner said they did not recognize Porchlight Health; Robinson clarified that Porchlight Health is the recovery center and that Crystal Robson is the new director. Commissioners indicated the item would likely appear on the consent agenda for formal approval.

No formal vote or administrative order was recorded in the provided transcript. Robinson offered to return or follow up by email to confirm the Board’s action on the consent agenda.","Madison Robinson, coordinator and case manager for the Colorado Youth Detention Continuum in the 20th Judicial District, asked the Board to approve a juvenile services planning committee membership list that will be formalized by an administrative order if approved.",{"_33":88,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":89,"_41":90,"_43":91,"_45":92,"_47":93,"_49":94,"_51":95,"_53":96,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":97,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":98,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6744139,"Montezuma County extension staff report $353,000 in 4-H livestock sales, recruit Master Gardeners",442,596000,1038000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=5594546-2d2b8d8e3c86be15745b534092d47a16&start=596&end=1038","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/5594546-2d2b8d8e3c86be15745b534092d47a16/thumbnail_596000.jpg","/articles/6744139/Montezuma-County/Colorado/Montezuma-County-extension-staff-report-353000-in-4-H-livestock-sales-recruit-Master-Gardeners","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6744139-55d3d0435d1ac998f54e969cfc980f8d/orig.mp4?Expires=1771143561&Signature=hB2u-An9P0BxB3~SMFAi8GT1~1FASCcEq97824hHt3wFXrdEwfVI3~seocbf2XQpRXaL-GNCytlfGuU8hu7DlmTwvHyBubpjLEzsNjAle15x7HwmP-xDhy6MAa1-8pTp-6WJ1e-YuR5wRwrODyHS8b09hZbUUU8eNlEfO56yZGYnyKqE9y-3kFAvNhn8pPfsjHk8x-3arSFecRKzRGH8BDZ~8xxMm5MN~80RFtIGpGjvmzVqJHKFxwASemldmpFCdmHwb3ZsxvyHD5whv~wjN6eqTNArUVlO2L-jM5E-~0zlAbHpYgF9kOHAyKNGEGcoBtTL906KXJC4WIho7Tgy2g__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","Miss Lockhart, the county extension presenter, told the Board of County Commissioners at the workshop that the extension office has circulated a quarterly program report and is recruiting for the Master Gardener program. \"Now is the time to apply to be a part of that program,\" Miss Lockhart said, noting the training is offered online and that three people have already applied for next year’s cycle.

Miss Lockhart summarized recent and upcoming programming, including partnership classes on food preservation with Tierney and Nicole Clark of La Plata County. \"Tierney can offer those classes. So she has is offering a hot water bath canning and then also a pressure canning class,\" Miss Lockhart said.

The extension also reviewed fair results. \"I got some stats from Tierney for the livestock sale. It was total of $353,000. There was a 111 kiddos who sold through that. We had 33 beef, 28 swine, 18 sheep, 21 goats, 3 rabbits, and 8 fowl,\" Miss Lockhart reported. She said the figure was about $20,000 higher than the previous year.

Staff praised 4-H leaders for youth success at the state fair. Tierney reported that Montezuma County sent 48 projects to the state fair and that county youth earned multiple grand or reserve grand placements in Family & Consumer Sciences categories. \"Montezuma County kids really did great at state fair,\" Tierney said.

Other extension news included community animal response training in case of wildfire, a newly hired administrative assistant, Nora West, who is familiar with the 4-H program, and an open posting for a program assistant that closes this week. Miss Lockhart said staff are coordinating small-scale trainings at the Cortez Livestock Sale Barn and with the animal shelter to prepare volunteers and responders.

Travis said he had been in contact with the undersheriff and that the county and CBI would work together to implement the agreement. Commissioners asked whether liability language could be shifted; staff responded that there is limited ability to shift liability between Montezuma County and the state of Colorado and that the contract language is as protective as practicable. \"I think in general, the idea of formalizing these agreements is to kinda just make sure that the shooting range is being used in a way that's gonna be safe, and try to limit liability on that front,\" a staff member said.
