Resident raises dirt-bike traffic concerns; sheriff said to be told not to pursue children
Summary
At the April 1 Carbon Cliff Board meeting a citizen reported more dirt-bike traffic and that the sheriff "was instructed not to pursue the children, but to drive the opposite direction." Trustees recorded the complaint during the public-comment period and did not take immediate enforcement action.
At a public comment segment of the Carbon Cliff Board of Trustees meeting on April 1, 2025, a resident reported an uptick in dirt-bike traffic and recounted a law-enforcement response preference described to the board.
The meeting record states that "he was aware of the issue and that he was instructed not to pursue the children, but to drive the opposite direction." The board did not announce any immediate policy or enforcement changes during the meeting. The complaint was entered into the hearing-of-citizens portion of the agenda for the trustees' awareness and potential follow-up.
The remark about the sheriff's instruction was recorded by the clerk as part of public comment; the sheriff did not speak during the meeting and no additional department representative responded at the session. Trustees did not vote on any enforcement measures at the meeting but may address the concern in the Public Safety & Administration Committee meeting scheduled for April 8, 2025.
