Commissioners approve matching funds for courthouse pavement and feasibility study, say money to come from general fund
Summary
Colfax County approved an intergovernmental agreement (IGA) to provide matching funds for pavement work at the Colfax County Courthouse and to split the cost of a feasibility study for courthouse improvements. Commissioners indicated the money will come from the general fund and that a formal budget line will be added at the next meeting.
Colfax County commissioners approved an intergovernmental agreement and a request for matching funds to support pavement of the county courthouse parking area and to split a feasibility study for potential courthouse work.
During the item, commissioners sought clarification that the IGA covered pavement and a feasibility study and not design or full building additions. The sheriff and staff confirmed the scope: "It's just sort of just the study, feasibility study, and then the paving of the parking lot," a county official said on the record.
Commissioners asked whether the requested matching funds were budgeted elsewhere; staff and the acting county manager said the funds would come from the general fund and were not specifically budgeted in the current line items. Commissioners instructed staff to add a formal line item at the next meeting to appropriate the funds; the motion to approve the IGA and matching funds passed by roll call (Commissioner Kern: yes; Commissioner Trujillo: yes; Chairman Tatum: yes).
