Trustees approve third amended PPRTA intergovernmental agreement to access voter-approved capital projects
Summary
Trustees approved a third amended and restated intergovernmental agreement with the Pikes Peak Rural Transportation Authority (PPRTA) to incorporate voter-approved capital projects into the town’s eligible project list; staff explained A/B/C priority lists and said communities must complete A-list projects before moving to B-list funding.
Staff presented the third amended and restated IGA with the PPRTA, explaining that PPRTA operates in voter-approved 10‑year cycles and that the amendment updates the IGA to reflect the recent voter-approved capital projects for the next cycle. Staff emphasized that a community must progress through A‑list projects before accessing B‑list funds and noted that while some projects are shovel‑ready, the overall cost of priority projects far exceeds available PPRTA funding and will require supplemental grants.
Trustees asked about deliverables and the prioritization process. Staff said the RTA money provides a grant-niche advantage that helps the town pursue larger grants; trustees moved to approve the third amended and restated IGA and the motion carried by voice vote.
