Background Paper for Proposed
Ordinance
COUNCIL MEETING DATE: August 26, 2024
TO: President Mark Aliff and Members of City Council
CC: Mayor Heather Graham
VIA: Marisa Stoller, City Clerk
FROM: Andrew Hayes, Public Works Director
SUBJECT: AN ORDINANCE APPROVING A MAINTENANCE IGA BETWEEN THE
CITY OF PUEBLO, A COLORADO MUNICIPAL CORPORATION;
PUEBLO COUNTY, A POLITICAL SUBDIVISION OF THE STATE OF
COLORADO; AND THE STATE OF COLORADO BY AND THROUGH
THE COLORADO DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION RELATED
TO THE MAINTENANCE OF INSTALLED ROADWAY IMPROVEMENTS
ALONG THE MEDAL OF HONOR BOULEVARD CORRIDOR, AND
AUTHORIZING THE MAYOR TO EXECUTE SAID AGREEMENT
SUMMARY:
The Ordinance will approve an Intergovernmental Agreement between the City, Pueblo
County, and the Colorado Department of Transportation (CDOT) which outlines
maintenance responsibilities of each of the parties for installed roadway improvements
in the vicinity of Pueblo Boulevard (CO-45) and Medal of Honor Boulevard. The
Ordinance also authorizes the Mayor to execute and deliver the agreement on behalf of
the City.
PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION:
On June 13, 2024, City Council voted to approve Ordinance No. 10726 which approved
an Easement Agreement between the City and the County related to the construction,
operation, and maintenance of Medal of Honor Boulevard through City-owned land
outside of the City, generally west of the new County Detention Facility.
BACKGROUND:
The City of Pueblo, Pueblo County, and CDOT have developed this agreement to
clarify responsibilities associated with the operation and maintenance of roadway
improvements on Medal of Honor Boulevard in the vicinity of Pueblo Boulevard (CO-
45).
FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS:
The segment of Medal of Honor Boulevard located within City of Pueblo is a City
roadway and the City will have ongoing maintenance obligations for certain public
improvements as outlined within the subject agreement. However, CDOT and Pueblo
County have also undertaken obligations for some of the existing and new
improvements. Pueblo County is responsible for managing the installation of the work
under their project to construct the Medal of Honor roadway.
BOARD/COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION:
Not applicable to this Ordinance.
STAKEHOLDER PROCESS:
None.
ALTERNATIVES:
Failure to approve this Ordinance will prevent the City from being a party to the
proposed agreement and place additional burden on the City for ongoing maintenance
responsibility of improvements that would otherwise be the responsibility of Pueblo
County and/or CDOT.
RECOMMENDATION:
Approval of the Ordinance.
