Montezuma County closes on property to enable County Road 25/Highway 184 realignment
Summary
County attorneys and a commissioner executed a property purchase at County Road 25 and Highway 184 to facilitate an intersection realignment and improve safety; engineers and Road and Bridge staff will proceed with project planning.
County attorneys reported that the county closed on a previously authorized property purchase at County Road 25 and Highway 184 to facilitate construction of a road realignment intended to improve intersection safety.
The county attorney said he and Commissioner Kopenhofer executed the purchase the prior week; engineers and Road and Bridge staff have since reviewed pay items and an engineer's estimate so the project can proceed.
Why it matters: acquiring the property is a necessary step to realign the intersection and advance the safety project. The transcript indicates the purchase closed and staff are moving toward construction-related tasks, but it does not include a construction schedule or final cost estimate for the reconstruction work.
Next steps: staff will continue engineering and contracting work; the board and staff indicated the project has been discussed for about two years and that remaining pay items and estimates will be finalized before work begins.
