Commissioners adopt Ordinance 2025-4 abandoning a small road at Magna Creek
Summary
The board voted to adopt Ordinance 2025-4 to abandon a short road and bridge that primarily served a single cabin at Magna Creek, concluding the public hearing and approving the ordinance.
Garfield County commissioners voted to adopt Ordinance 2025-4 to abandon a short public road and bridge at Magna Creek that served a single cabin and was judged not a cost-effective use of public funds to maintain.
The issue had been the subject of a public hearing a month earlier; staff said the area is small and upkeep would benefit only one property. Because of a procedural error the county reissued the item as an ordinance (rather than a resolution) and the board moved and seconded adoption under the ordinance number 2025-4.
The motion passed on a voice vote and the chair announced “motion passes.” Commissioners did not record additional conditions; staff said the public hearing had addressed objections and that the abandonment was appropriate based on use and maintenance cost.
Effect: staff will carry out the administrative steps needed to formalize the abandonment under Ordinance 2025-4.
