Pueblo County Manager Carrie Genesio told commissioners on July 15 that several contract items are moving toward formal action, including a Sky Corral contribution and a District 70 renovation agreement for courts funded from the Conservation Trust Fund.

Genesio said the City of Pueblo’s contribution related to Sky Corral is scheduled to appear on the Board of County Commissioners’ agenda on Thursday for approval. On the District 70 agreement, Genesio said the contract for renovation of the pickleball and tennis courts—funded from the Conservation Trust Fund—is currently under legal review at District 70; she said that once legal review is complete the agreement will be placed on the BOCC agenda for execution. The board previously designated the funding for the District 70 work, Genesio said; the outstanding step is final legal review and contract execution.

Why it matters: these are county contracts that will authorize the execution of previously allocated funds. The Conservation Trust Fund is a designated funding source for the District 70 courts project, and the Sky Corral contribution will be considered by the BOCC at a forthcoming public meeting.

Details reported during the work session

Genesio described each item as moving through final steps: the Sky Corral contribution will be on the BOCC agenda on Thursday; the District 70 contract is under legal review and, after that review, will be scheduled for approval. Genesio also said the board had already designated the funding for the District 70 renovations and that the upcoming agenda item would primarily be for contract execution.

No vote was taken during the work session on these specific contracts. The county manager said additional information will be provided to the board as legal reviews and committee reports conclude.
