SENATE RESOLUTION 26-001
BY SENATOR(S) Pelton B., Baisley, Bright, Carson, Frizell, Kirkmeyer, Liston, Pelton R., Rich, Simpson, Zamora Wilson.
CONCERNING DEMANDING THE COLORADO DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION TO IMPLEMENT ROAD IMPROVEMENT PROJECTS IN MORGAN COUNTY.
WHEREAS, Pursuant to article 1 of title 43, Colorado Revised Statutes, the Colorado Department of Transportation (CDOT) is charged with the maintenance of the state's transportation system; and WHEREAS, For years, CDOT has failed to take significant steps to implement and fund maintenance projects for state highways in Morgan County, and as a result, most of the state highways in Morgan County are in poor condition; and WHEREAS,Seventy percent of the approximately 145 miles of state highway, excluding I-76, located in Morgan County, have low drivability life pursuant to a 2023 CDOT assessment; and WHEREAS, Accordingly, seventy percent of the state highway miles in Morgan County have a drivability life of three years or less, according to the 2023 assessment; and WHEREAS, The last assessment of these state highway miles was conducted in 2023, and as such, the identified segments of state highway with low drivability life in Morgan County likely have a year or less of drivability life in 2025; and WHEREAS, Morgan County has been significantly underserved by CDOT through its project and maintenance planning; now, therefore,
Be It Resolved by the Senate of the Seventy-fifth General Assembly of the State of Colorado:
That the Senate supports the Morgan County Board of County Commissioners in demanding CDOT to reevaluate its priorities to provide funding to undertake road improvement projects in Morgan County and to implement those projects. Belt Further Resolved, That copies of this Senate Resolution be sent to Shoshana M. Lew, the executive director of CDOT.
James Rashad Coleman Sr. PRESIDENT OF THE SENATE

What it covers: the record exactly as the official source publishes it — its identifiers (bill number, session, jurisdiction), its official title and long title, its official summary, its status, its sponsors in published order, every recorded action, every recorded vote, and the link to each official text version — assembled in a fixed canonical form described on the How this data works page.
The fingerprint does not cover our retrieval date (the “Data as of” stamp in the source line): re-fetching unchanged official content produces the same fingerprint, while any change to the official content changes it.
If you recompute the fingerprint from the official source and get a different value, one of us is out of date — please report it through the corrections log.
