The Colfax County Commission meeting on September 23, 2025, focused on the need to file extensions for ongoing road projects due to adverse weather conditions. The discussion highlighted the impact of recent rainstorms on the county's infrastructure, which has caused delays in road repairs and maintenance.

Commissioners expressed concern over the necessity of filing for extensions, acknowledging that while it is not ideal, it is essential to ensure that projects are completed. The deadline for these extensions is set for December 31, 2025. One commissioner noted that three roads currently require significant work, emphasizing the backlog faced by the road department.

During the meeting, questions arose regarding the status of previous projects funded by last year's budget. It was confirmed that some projects had been completed, specifically C3 and C4, but the current focus remains on the new funding cycle and the roads that need attention.

The commission's decision to file for extensions reflects a proactive approach to managing the county's infrastructure challenges while aiming to complete as much work as possible before the year's end. The meeting underscored the ongoing commitment of the Colfax County Commission to address the needs of the community despite weather-related setbacks.
