FLOOD RECONSTRUCTION Continued from page 1 The grass grow -in will continue through spring 2015 and the contract with LU includes the company stay- ing on -site through this grow -in period to assure the course is ready to open in the spring. In addition, the City has hired a new Golf Course Superintendent to assist with grow -in as the golf course transitions and the City assumes golf course operations and maintenance. Additional staff will be phased in as construction and re- opening nears. The City anticipates awarding a contract for out - sourcing food and beverage concession services in December 2014. For everyone's safety and to ensure that none of the newly constructed facilities are damaged during recon- struction and grow -in, all public access to Coal Creek Golf Course is prohibited. COUNTY ROAD BRIDGE We originally anticipated the new bridge would be in place by summer of 2015. Unfortunately, the process has been slow due to Federal Highway Administration and Colorado Department of Transportation required processes. We lost significant time getting clarification and support for rebuilding to a 100 -year flood standard and working through CDOT's expectations for getting the design consultant on board. The City, working with the Federal Highway Admin- stration, is now designing the new County Road Bridge. The City Council took public input on the design and aesthetics of the bridge on November 18th. Next steps include environmental work, final design, and approval from CDOT. We hope to have the new bridge and road- way open in spring 2016.
