Board approves Rocky Mountain Power contract to energize new stoplight; one commissioner votes no
Summary
Commissioners authorized a $9,506.05 general service contract with Rocky Mountain Power to energize a newly installed stoplight after staff said a state work ticket was dropped; one commissioner recorded opposition during roll call.
County staff told the board a newly installed stoplight lacked power after the state and the utility dropped a work ticket, and they presented a general service contract with Rocky Mountain Power for $9,506.05 to get power connected and pursue reimbursement under a state MOU. Staff said the state is willing to work with the county on cost-sharing once the county secures power service.
"They put up the stoplight... we've got the stoplight up now and no power and no contract," a county roads or public-works speaker said, explaining efforts to secure service and the possibility of amending the county's MOU with the state. The board moved to approve the Rocky Mountain Power contract. During the roll call some members signaled "Aye" while one commissioner stated "No," as recorded in the transcript; staff were instructed to finalize the contract and pursue reimbursement arrangements with the state.
