The RMMP also establishes certain rules that have the force of law; violations of these rules are punishable as provided for herein and in the Colorado Revised Statutes, as they may be amended from time to time. DEFINITION OF A ROAD A Road as defined by Colorado Revised Statutes ([§42-1-102(85), C.R.S.]) "Roadway" means that portion of a highway improved, designed, or ordinarily used for vehicular travel, exclusive of the sidewalk, berm, or shoulder even though such sidewalk, berm, or shoulder is used by persons riding bicycles or other human-powered vehicles and exclusive of that portion of a highway designated for exclusive use as a bicycle path or reserved for the exclusive use of bicycles, human-powered vehicles, or pedestrians. In the event that a highway includes two or more separate roadways, "roadway" refers to any such roadway separately but not to all such roadways collectively. Pitkin County considers all appurtenances to roadways, such as parking, drainage structures, and snow storage areas to be part of the roadway.

  • All Grants Awarded Through Fiscal Year 2020 INTRODUCTION and KEY
    All Grants Awarded Through Fiscal Year 2020 INTRODUCTION AND KEY This report is a list of all grants awarded by the Colorado Historical Society’s State Historical Fund (SHF) since its inception in 1992 (state Fiscal Year 1993) through the end of Fiscal Year 2020. The amounts listed are the original award amounts. If for some reason the entire grant amount was not used (i.e. a project was terminated or was completed under budget) the full amount awarded will appear. In other instances grant awards were increased either to enable project completion or to cover the costs of easements. In these instances, the additional award amount is shown in a separate entry as an increase. In those cases where no work was accomplished and the funds were either declined by the grant recipient or were required to be returned to the SHF through rescissions, no entry will appear. For this reason, projects listed in one version of this report may not appear in later versions, and the financial information shown in this report may not be comparable to other revenue reports issued by the SHF. Grants listed in this report are identified by project ID number. The first two characters in the project ID number represent the fiscal year from which the grant was scheduled to be paid. The state is on a July 1 – June 30 fiscal year. So, for example, all grants made between July 1, 2006 and June 30, 2007 will be coded “07”. The next two characters identify the type of grant. In the case of grants that are awarded based on specific application due dates, the grant round in which the project was funded will be paired with either a letter or number.

  • Draft of Comments for WWRNF DEIS TMP…
    Our mission is to create and sustain the best possible mountain bike trail system and experience in the Roaring Fork Valley. January 30, 2014 TO: Upper Roaring Fork Trails Plan, Planning Team RE: Comments for URFTP, Mountain Bike User Group Meeting In this document, we intend to address the overall goals for this Trails Plan from a mountain bike trail user’s perspective. These comments are based upon our detailed knowledge of the area and our experiences riding great trails both within and beyond the Roaring Fork area. Using the IMBA Ride Center evaluation system as a guide helps us to understand the types of trails and amenities we should hope to include in this planning process. Achieving a Gold medal rated IMBA Ride Center would mean we’ve achieved many of our trail quality and quantity goals while at the same time providing a valuable community trail network that both locals and visitors will enjoy for years to come. While our focus is mountain bike trails, we are fortunate in that our trail system is not over crowded, and there is almost always plenty of room to share the trail with other user types. While we expect most of the trails in the network will continue to be open and used by hikers, dog walkers, runners, and the occasional equestrian, we are interested in studying separated uses if and when bike specific trails are designed with features that are downhill oriented. The following pages include big picture goals and specific location based ideas that should be studied in the context of existing conditions maps.
