Summary

The county approved using up to $291,543 in state EUL appropriated funds to extend Talus's professional services for beyond‑visual‑line‑of‑sight radar at Grand Sky; one commissioner was recused from the vote.

County staff requested up to $291,543 from 2025 state‑appropriated EUL funds to extend an existing professional services contract with Talus, the vendor that operates beyond‑visual‑line‑of‑sight radar services for tenants at Grand Sky.

Staff described the request as an extension of an existing contract to keep the radar system operating and to allow Grand Sky tenants continued access. A county staffer said the request is an appropriate use of the state funds allocated for the purpose.

One commissioner was recused from voting on the item as recorded in the meeting. The remaining commissioners moved, seconded and approved the funding extension; the motion was recorded as passing unanimously with the recused commissioner not participating.

Next steps: staff will execute the extension consistent with state funding rules and contract requirements; staff noted the item was presented as an extension of an existing agreement rather than a new procurement.
