Resolution Approving an Amendment to the 2008 Access Control Plan  
Between the Town of Castle Rock, Douglas County, Elbert County, the Town  
of Elizabeth, the Town of Kiowa, the Town of Parker and the State of  
Colorado Department of Transportation

Inter-governmental Agreement (IGA) between the Colorado Department of  
Transportation, Douglas County, and the Towns of Parker and Castle Rock. A  
request to recommend approval to Town Council allowing the Mayor to sign  
the amended IGA. The goal of this update is to create an updated plan to  
reflect existing conditions and amendments that have taken place since 2008.  
The project area extends approximately 13 miles from the Arapahoe County  
boundary south to Russellville Road.  
The following questions were asked by the Commission:  
1. Is this amendment to have it updated or are there changes that need to  
be reviewed and are the changes only happening outside of Castle  
Rock?  
a. If a new property were to be developed, they would need to  
follow this Access Control Plan.  
2. Since there are so many municipalities for this plan, the section we are  
signing is only for applies to the Town of Castle Rock boundary?  
a. Yes. The only intersection this includes is Castle Oaks Drive  
and SH-83, which had no recommended changes.  
A motion made by Commissioner DiDomenico and seconded by Commissioner  
Novak to approve the Resolution Approving an Amendment to the 2008 Access

Resolution Approving an Intergovernmental Agreement with The Villages at  
Castle Rock Metropolitan District No. 4 for the Plum Creek Parkway Full  
Depth Reclamation (FDR) Project  
Intergovernmental Agreement (IGA) with The Villages at Castle Rock  
Metropolitan District No. 4 “the District” that would coordinate a District  
project with the Town’s pavement maintenance on Plum Creek Parkway. The  
provisions of the IGA require the District to perform pavement maintenance,  
while the Town provides an estimated $1.1M in funding for the reconstruction  
only. The District plans to construct a sanitary sewer underneath west bound  
Plum Creek Parkway lanes between Eaton Street and Ridge Road in 2024.  
The Town would like to coordinate its scheduled maintenance of this section  
of pavement along Plum Creek Parkway as it has reached the end of its  
useful life and is currently slated to receive a Full Depth Reclamation (FDR)  
treatment in 2025.  
The following questions were ask by the Commission:  
1. What is the cost saving partnering with the Metro District?  
a. Town staff have estimated approximately $250k of cost savings  
could be realized by the Town by partnering with the district.  
2. Are we cutting the new pavement on the other side?  
a. No. The newly constructed pavements on east bound Plum  
Creek Parkway will be protected during construction.  
3. When this project first began, two years ago, why didn’t the Metro  
District partner with the Town then?  
a. Town staff were aware of the District’s desires to install the  
sanitary sewer under Plum Creek Parkway prior to the start of  
the Plum Creek Parkway Widening Phase 2 project, and had  
coordinated with district staff since that time. A partnership  
through an IGA did not materialize before now, as the District  
was still in the design phase when the Town started  
construction of Plum Creek Parkway Widening Phase 2.  
4. What is being done on the sewer line, is it a new install?  
a. There is no existing sewer lines in this area. The District’s work  
is a new sewer main line.  
5. Who is the Town signing with the Metro District and/or the Developer?  
a. The Metro District.  
6. If the Town wouldn’t have waited to partner with the Metro District when  
would've the Town paved the road?  
a. Public Works had identified that the road would have been  
repaved in 2025, regardless of the District’s proposed sewer  
project.  
A motion made by Commissioner Wille and seconded by Commissioner Wood to  
approve the Resolution Approving an Intergovernmental Agreement with The  
Villages at Castle Rock Metropolitan District No. 4 for the Plum Creek Parkway Full  
Depth Reclamation (FDR) Project. Motion passes 5-1.

Resolution Concurring with the Award of a Construction Contract by the

Associated Therewith [From Crystal Valley Interchange to South Border of  
Dawson Trails Development}  
Authorizing Dawson Trails Metropolitan District No. 1 to proceed with the  
award of a construction contract with Bemas Construction (Bemas). The  
Town entered into an agreement with the District to oversee the construction  
of a portion of Dawson Trails Boulevard associated with the Crystal Valley  
Interchange (CVI).  
The following question was asked by the Commission:  
1. The IGA that was approved with the Metro Dist. in May was for the  
Metro Dist. to manage the construction - where in the process is this  
concurrence and do we have an obligation to concur?  
a. Per the IGA the District will make their recommendation and  
Town Staff may either concur or reject the recommendation.  
The Town has to approve and concur before a contract is  
awarded.  
A motion made by Commissioner DiDomenico and seconded by Commissioner  
Novak to approve the Resolution Concurring with the Award of a Construction  
Contract by the Dawson Trails Metropolitan District No. 1 to Bemas Construction for
