Summary

Travis presented a draft agreement with the Colorado Bureau of Investigation to allow law-enforcement training at the county shooting range. The draft mirrors a prior county arrangement with a community college, omits a waiver requirement for law enforcement participants, and includes liability language staff said is

Travis presented a proposed agreement with the Colorado Bureau of Investigation (CBI) to allow CBI law-enforcement personnel to use the county shooting range. "This is taking pretty straightforward. We did something with the community college that's very similar to this. In fact, it's almost verbatim is what we're doing with them other than we're not requiring them to sign a waiver because they're law enforcement. They just need to be able to use our shooting range," Travis said.

Travis said he had been in contact with the undersheriff and that the county and CBI would work together to implement the agreement. Commissioners asked whether liability language could be shifted; staff responded that there is limited ability to shift liability between Montezuma County and the state of Colorado and that the contract language is as protective as practicable. "I think in general, the idea of formalizing these agreements is to kinda just make sure that the shooting range is being used in a way that's gonna be safe, and try to limit liability on that front," a staff member said.

The draft shown to commissioners was informational in the provided transcript; no formal approval or signature was recorded in the excerpt.
