Recognizing Service

The Town Administrator and current board formally recognized the Trustees, and Mayor for their service in their roles. "Serving on the board requires a significant commitment. I thank you, and the Town thanks you, for your dedication. Your contributions are the essence of democracy. You have helped improve the quality of life for tens of thousands of people living, working, and visiting Erie," Town Administrator Malcolm Fleming.

Welcome New Board

On Tuesday's Board of Trustee meeting, Mayor Jennifer Carroll was sworn in by the town clerk. Trustee Adam Haid was voted as the Mayor Pro Tem. The other newly-elected Trustees - Sara Loflin, Ari Harrison, and Brandon Bell- were all sworn in remotely over video conference. Welcome new board!

Old Town Infrastructure

RockSol Consulting Group, Inc. presented the Old Town Infrastructure Improvement Report to the Trustees. The report studied infrastructure improvements to accommodate future residents and businesses. The necessary improvements would span over a decade. The infrastructure analyzed in the report include: water and gas lines, storm drainage, roadway and alley surfaces, curb, gutter, sidewalks, landscaping and parking.

Town Center Peel Analysis - Tabled

On Tuesday, the Board tabled a resolution that would commit to fund a comprehensive engineering review of transportation at the north and south gateways of Town Center. The $90k Peel Analysis would define the configuration and improvements of the roadway; a critical step to demonstrate that the site is activated for commercial development. The peel analysis will be considered on the May 12 agenda.

Local Disaster Emergency Extended

On Tuesday, the Board extended the local disaster emergency declaration, until terminated. The declaration is important in that it allows for policies such as holding remote meetings, offering state emergency leave for employees, as well as the eligibility for FEMA disaster assistance.

Public Health Orders

Trustees approved a resolution clarifying the public health orders in the Town. On the Boulder side the Boulder County Stay at Home Order is applicable through May 8. On the Weld County side, the State's Safer at Home applies.
