By Rudy

Last week’s board meeting was postponed until the evening of Wednesday, Sept. 11, 2019, due to the special election which was held Tuesday, Sept. 10. Dog park agreement: The trustees considered an Intergovernmental Agreement (IGA) between the town and the Thompson School District which would allow the use of a portion of school district property to be used as a town-managed dog park. The park, which will be about one acre in size, will be located immediately east of 10th Street and proceed eastward from there. The park will run along the south side of Neilson Greenway trail and a drainage ditch on the south side. Some of the signage proposed for the dog park includes:
• The park is for the use of residents and their pets only. • Owners are legally responsible for their dogs and any injuries caused by them. • Dogs (and puppies) must be properly licensed, inoculated and otherwise healthy to use the park. • Owners must clean up after their dogs. • Dogs must wear a collar and have ID tags at all times. • Dogs showing aggression toward people or other dogs are to be removed from the park. • Puppies using the park must be at least four months old. • Owners shall not leave their dogs unattended in the park.
CDOT plans for I25/Highway 56: Abra Gissler, Colorado Department of Transportation project director for the Interstate 25 section from State Highway 402 to State Highway 56, gave a presentation before the trustees on Sept. 17. She indicated there were several major tasks associated with the I-25 project, included but not limited to:
• Three major interchange reconstruction projects, SH 56 — SH 60 — LCR 16 • Eight bridges • One Floodplain (Little Thompson) • One Park-n-Ride (Service Bustang) – Funding Dependent • Two carpool lots (SH 56 and SH 60) • One Great Western RR crossing • Major Utilities Relocations • Right-of-way Acquisition (46 Properties) • ITS/Tolling • Environmental Concerns She went on to explain the configuration of I-25 will change from the current two lanes in each direction to a “2 + 1 Design.”
