STEAMBOAT SPRINGS Steamboat Springs residents can expect six visible and impactful construction projects this summer after the end of ski season. The projects are being completed by both the city and Colorado Department of Transportation.

Highway 40 chip and seal
The biggest and most noticeable project will be a CDOT-run U.S. Highway 40 East chip and seal, going from Third Street to the west summit of Rabbit Ears Pass. Jon Snyder, Steamboat public works director, said CDOT has “done their best to make this as painless to the traveling public as possible.” The project will start closer to Rabbit Ears and work into city limits by August, Snyder said, adding CDOT will ensure daytime closures will not be allowed to start until 9 a.m. so morning commuters

Marietta City Council authorized the creation of a part-time clerk in the fight against blight Thursday, with the caveat that the adoption was a “baby step.”
“I am not willing to commit the city to spending money on another city employee without knowing if any of the issues that we are experiencing in the department would be solved by adding this position. And that justification has not occurred,” said the chairwoman of the Employee Relations Committee, Council Member Cassidi Shoaf.
Shoaf’s fellow committee and council members Susan Boyer and Bill Farnsworth brought the ordinance forward at the close of 2020 and Thursday hosted the third reading of Ordinance 165 creating a part-time clerk position within the city’s code enforcement office, now named property maintenance office.
