RESOLUTION
OF
THE BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS
COUNTY OF EAGLE, STATE OF COLORADO
Withdrawal of Contract for maintenance of Hwy. # 131
WHEREAS, Eagle County has maintained State Highway No. 131
since its early construction and becoming a State Highway; and
WHEREAS, though sufficient in the past, the monthly reim-
bursement by the State for such maintenance has become inadequate to
fund the equipment, fuel and manpower needed to accomplish the neces-
sary work and the time involved has become a burden with the many miles
of new roads forced on the County for maintenance by the many new de-
velopments and subdivisions within the County; and
WHEREAS, the Health, Welfare and Safety of the constituency
represented by this Board will be adversely affected by continuing the
maintenance contract; and
WHEREAS, it now appears that the Department of Highways,
State of Colorado, is agreeable to performing their own maintenance
on State Highway No. 131;
NOW THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the Board of County Commis-
sioners of the County of Eagle, State of Colorado, that the County of
Eagle, represented by this Board, is appreciative of the opportunity
to have served both its constituency and the State of Colorado, by per-
forming the maintenance on State Highway No. 131 since its inception.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the Board of County Commissioners
does relinquish its status as maintenance contractor and hereby with-
.
draws from its contract with the State Department of Highways for main-
tenance of State Highway No. 131, effective / /9,
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the Clerk to the Board is hereby
directed to forward copies of this Resolution to the appropriate Officials
of the State Department of Highways, Division of Highways, State of Colorado.
