Weld County commissioners authorized two items to support a property abatement project at Yosemite Drive: an agreement allowing county crews to connect to a neighboring property owner’s electrical service for the abatement, and a professional services agreement with Western Electrical Group Inc. to install two 20-amp branch circuits. Adria Shield, assistant county attorney, told the board the power-use agreement would allow the county to use neighboring power and that the amount "would not exceed $1,500 for the duration of the contract."

A separate professional services agreement with Western Electrical Group Inc. was presented to install the two 20-amp circuits so the county could connect to power on site; the presenter stated the amount for those services as $515. Commissioner Lackey moved approval of the power-use agreement and Commissioner James moved approval of the electrician services agreement; both measures were seconded and approved with votes announced as "aye."

Why it matters: the arrangements enable the county to complete an abatement project at 3715–3716 Yosemite Drive by providing temporary power on site and installing necessary circuits. The transcript does not include detailed scope-of-work documents, warranties, or timeline for the abatement, and does not specify whether the neighboring property owner receives compensation beyond the capped payment.

Implementation: the chair was authorized to sign the agreements; county staff will oversee contractor work and coordinate the temporary connection. Any additional costs, change orders, or follow-up approvals were not presented at the meeting.
