WesternParkOwner, Usually I agree with you but cannot on this. How in the world can it cost nearly $1000 per day to maintain? Water, elec., toilet paper, trash removal?
And how can you spend $500,000 by putting up signs and barricades to close it. That is government waste, fraud, and inefficiency
at it's worst!
I suggested to CDOT to have volunteers man the stops. Was told that creates a liability for the state. They don't reason or analyze, just throw more money at everything...because it is OUR money, not THEIRS.
