Summary

The Board of Commissioners supported allocating $120,000 from the Conservation Trust Fund to the Beaver Ranch Community Inc. for roof, HVAC, sewer and aesthetic repairs at Beaver Ranch Park event center and TP Lodge.

Jefferson County commissioners agreed to allocate $120,000 from the county Conservation Trust Fund to support repairs and design work at Beaver Ranch Park.

The appropriation will support Beaver Ranch Community Inc., which provides recreation amenities to the town of Conifer, and will fund structural and aesthetic work at the park’s event center and the TP Lodge. Hillary Merritt, Parks and Open Space, told the board, “We would like to allocate a 120,000 for this.”

Merritt said planned work includes roof repairs, exterior painting, HVAC and mini-duct improvements, sewer-line cleanings and commissioning architectural drawings for expanded improvements. County Attorney Anthony Chambers was present for the briefing but no mover or second were recorded in the public briefing transcript; the commissioners gave verbal support during the session.

The county’s briefing did not list a formal ordinance number or a signed motion text in the transcript. Commissioners indicated support during the briefing and staff said the item would proceed for execution consistent with the Conservation Trust Fund allocation made in 2021 and an adjustment made the prior month.

The county did not provide a project schedule or a contract award in the briefing; staff said the funds will be allocated to aid Beaver Ranch Community Inc. in completing the identified repairs and design work.

County staff did not specify longer-term maintenance funding or project timeline during the briefing.
