| With suicide rates in Colorado ranking 6th nationally and 66 lives lost to suicide in Royal County during 2023. | 00:21:36 | |
| And whereas being trusted person to turn to someone is feeling isolated or hopeless is one of the most important things we can do. | 00:21:43 | |
| To prove out suicide. | 00:21:50 | |
| Actively challenging stigma around mental health and building skills that increase the likelihood of someone feeling safe. | 00:21:53 | |
| To open up without fear or shame or judgment is the first step. | 00:21:59 | |
| And whereas because of the collaborative prevention and education efforts in North Range. | 00:22:03 | |
| Suicide education and support services. | 00:22:07 | |
| Imagine 0 of world counting numerous survivors and community partners. Hope exists in William County. | 00:22:10 | |
| And whereas N range behavioral health suicide education support services. | 00:22:16 | |
| SCSS program supports those. | 00:22:20 | |
| Who have lost someone to suicide and provides education to well county residents. | 00:22:22 | |
| That helped build critical suicide prevention skills. | 00:22:27 | |

| And the need for appropriate and accessible services for all citizens Signed by all 5 county Commissioners. | 00:23:12 | |
| Would you like to come forth and share anything? | 00:23:20 | |
| Good morning. | 00:23:30 | |
| Thank you for having us here. I hope to be here every May for Mental Health month and every September for suicide awareness. | 00:23:31 | |
| Until there are no more suicides. | 00:23:39 | |
| Then maybe we'll stop visiting you. | 00:23:41 | |
| So I do have some team members that are amazing here, certainly Northridge team, part of our suicide education and support | 00:23:44 | |
| services. It is a prevention program. We do a ton of trainings in the community. | 00:23:48 | |
| And then we also do have. | 00:23:54 | |
| Representatives from Imagine 0, which is a local coalition of many invested partners that come together with the intent of | 00:23:56 | |
| preventing anymore suicide. So I'm actually going to let them speak because they are way better out of time. | 00:24:02 | |
| Good morning. Good morning. Thank you for having us. Really I'll keep it brief, but I just want to take the opportunity to say | 00:24:12 | |
| thank you. | 00:24:15 | |
| Thank you for caring and for supporting suicide prevention. We recognize that it's not always a fun topic to talk about, but we | 00:24:19 | |
| also believe that suicide prevention is everybody's business. | 00:24:24 | |
| When we take the time to be vulnerable and checking on our people, we can normalize mental health and we can make it OK to ask for | 00:24:30 | |
| help. | 00:24:34 | |
| So I want to encourage you to check in on your friends, your families, your neighbors. | 00:24:38 | |
| And really, I just want to say thank you for caring. It's the communities here that I see today that really do make me optimistic | 00:24:42 | |
| for a brighter future with fewer suicides. | 00:24:47 | |
| Do you mind sharing your name with us so that we Yes, my name is Alyssa Selby. I'm the program coordinator for our SESS team. | 00:24:53 | |
| That's our suicide education and support services. | 00:24:58 | |
| In addition, I also facilitate our Imagine Zero World County coalition. Thank you, thank you. We also would like to share with us | 00:25:02 | |
| today. | 00:25:06 | |
| You 2 turned around and looked behind. | 00:25:15 | |
| Well, excellent, Commissioner Jesus, everything you'd like to add this one? I, I do. I have said it before, I'll say it again. We | 00:25:19 | |
| have a mental health epidemic in this nation. | 00:25:23 | |
| It is far more serious than any virus we've ever battled. It is perhaps the most important public health matter that we deal with | 00:25:27 | |
| today. | 00:25:30 | |
| That will continue to advocate for that. So we'll continue to focus on May so we don't have to focus on September. I agree with | 00:25:34 | |
| you. | 00:25:37 | |
| And so let's lean into that, you who do your work in prevention and counseling, your angels, and thank you for what you do. | 00:25:40 | |
| God bless you and may you continue well in your work. | 00:25:47 | |
| Couldn't agree more with Commissioner James, he's just always has it so eloquently. | 00:25:51 | |
| But when you think of the number of ones that we have had in well County. | 00:25:56 | |
| I think of the numbers we could have without all of what you have done for us and I or the bottom of my heart. Thank you so much | 00:26:00 | |
| and. | 00:26:04 | |
| And God's theme. | 00:26:08 | |
| Mr. Friedman. | 00:26:10 | |
| Yeah, You know, I think probably just about everybody who's been touched by somebody that has committed suicide, a couple of | 00:26:11 | |
| people in my life, thank you. Thankfully years ago, but. | 00:26:17 | |
| You know, it's one of those things that you just don't see it coming until it's. | 00:26:23 | |
| So what you guys do is extremely important. Scott's right, Commissioner James, right. Mental health is a huge issue in this | 00:26:27 | |
| country. So thank you for what you guys do every day. | 00:26:31 | |
| And I just want to thank you from the bottom of my heart as well. Just. | 00:26:36 | |
| Very special mission that you have and not one that everybody can actually embark on and not let them. | 00:26:40 | |
| Affect their daily lives as well. | 00:26:46 | |
| That's a very dark place where people go, and for you to be able to sit in that rescue mission, repel down there and grab these | 00:26:48 | |
| folks. | 00:26:51 | |
| Before they do something irreparable to themselves and others in their community. | 00:26:55 | |
| Just hats off to you. That's amazing. Thank you. | 00:27:00 | |
| I would agree with all my fellow Commissioners. | 00:27:04 | |
| As I was reading the. | 00:27:07 | |
| Proclamation. Uh. | 00:27:08 | |
| IS, Commissioner Freeman stated most of us have been. | 00:27:10 | |
| You know, involved with somebody close to us that. | 00:27:13 | |
| Committed suicide and that's actually what's running through my head was. | 00:27:16 | |
| Those those uh, uh. | 00:27:19 | |
| Friends and family members that I've lost by this and. | 00:27:21 | |
| I thank you for your guys''s work and the awareness to this. | 00:27:25 | |
| People need to know that there's help. | 00:27:29 | |
| Their support out there. | 00:27:31 | |
| I appreciate you and. | 00:27:33 | |
| And Commissioner James, you're right, it's if we can continue to tackle. | 00:27:34 | |
| Mental health and and. | 00:27:38 | |
| We stand up May and and beyond me because it's all year round. | 00:27:40 | |
| It's it's great work because. | 00:27:44 | |
| This is the final solution and it's a permanent solution and we don't want that. We want people sticking around and they mean too | 00:27:47 | |
| much to all of us and I think it's important for all of us. | 00:27:51 | |
| To take a moment. | 00:27:56 | |
| Throughout our busy days and reach out to individuals. | 00:27:57 | |
| Sometimes you never know it it's it might be the. | 00:28:00 | |
| The call or the the greeting that they need and and. | 00:28:03 | |
| And it helps them out. So I really appreciate you guys doing this. That means a lot to me and too many others and. | 00:28:06 | |

| And gas made for County Road 41 and State Highway 52 intersection improvement project and authorized your assigned Atmos Energy | 00:35:15 | |
| Corp. | 00:35:18 | |
| Good morning, Good morning, Commissioners Eric Green, Flow County Public Works. | 00:35:22 | |
| This agreement allows for an existing Atmos Energy gas metering station to be relocated in the northeast quadrant of the Kenwood | 00:35:26 | |
| 41 and State Highway 52 intersection project. | 00:35:31 | |
| Existing gas metering station was within private property prior to New Rd. Railway being acquired and therefore Weld County has to | 00:35:35 | |
| provide funding for relocation of the facility. | 00:35:40 | |
| The estimated cost of the relocation is $199,000. | 00:35:45 | |
| $794.33. | 00:35:49 | |
| The agreement also allows for 1820 linear feet of an existing atmos energy gas name to be relocated. | 00:35:53 | |
| For the roadway project. | 00:36:00 | |
| And this gas main is located within Weld County Road 41 right away and therefore this work must be completed. The atmos energy | 00:36:02 | |
| sole cost. | 00:36:06 | |
| Now, following these relocations, removal or abandonment of all gas means no longer in service. | 00:36:10 | |
| Will be completed by Weld County's roadway contractor. | 00:36:17 | |
| Reason for doing this is it lessens impact to and increases safety for the traveling public. | 00:36:20 | |
| These costs for removal or abandonment of the gas mains are estimated to be 8626 dollars. | 00:36:26 | |
| This amount is being credited towards the existing gas metering station relocation costs. | 00:36:33 | |
| Therefore, the total the total amount payable to Atmos is determined to be $191,168.33. | 00:36:38 | |
| Funding for this amount is accounted for in the World County Public Works 2024 budget. | 00:36:47 | |
| The agreement has been reviewed by the County Attorneys office and signed by Atmos Energy. | 00:36:52 | |
| It was provided as a pass around dated August 20th, 2024 and approved by all 5 commissioners to include on the agenda. | 00:36:56 | |
| Staff is asking for the board to authorize the chair signature on the agreement so that payment can be issued at Miss Energy. | 00:37:04 | |

| 48,000 deaths annually are attributed to suicide. | 00:21:32 | |
| With suicide rates in Colorado ranking 6th nationally and 66 lives lost to suicide in Royal County during 2023. | 00:21:36 | |
| And whereas being trusted person to turn to someone is feeling isolated or hopeless is one of the most important things we can do. | 00:21:43 | |
| To prove out suicide. | 00:21:50 | |
| Actively challenging stigma around mental health and building skills that increase the likelihood of someone feeling safe. | 00:21:53 | |
| To open up without fear or shame or judgment is the first step. | 00:21:59 | |
| And whereas because of the collaborative prevention and education efforts in North Range. | 00:22:03 | |
| Suicide education and support services. | 00:22:07 | |
| Imagine 0 of world counting numerous survivors and community partners. Hope exists in William County. | 00:22:10 | |
| And whereas N range behavioral health suicide education support services. | 00:22:16 | |
| SCSS program supports those. | 00:22:20 | |
| Who have lost someone to suicide and provides education to well county residents. | 00:22:22 | |
| That helped build critical suicide prevention skills. | 00:22:27 | |

| And the need for appropriate and accessible services for all citizens Signed by all 5 county Commissioners. | 00:23:12 | |
| Would you like to come forth and share anything? | 00:23:20 | |
| Good morning. | 00:23:30 | |
| Thank you for having us here. I hope to be here every May for Mental Health month and every September for suicide awareness. | 00:23:31 | |
| Until there are no more suicides. | 00:23:39 | |
| Then maybe we'll stop visiting you. | 00:23:41 | |
| So I do have some team members that are amazing here, certainly Northridge team, part of our suicide education and support | 00:23:44 | |
| services. It is a prevention program. We do a ton of trainings in the community. | 00:23:48 | |
| And then we also do have. | 00:23:54 | |
| Representatives from Imagine 0, which is a local coalition of many invested partners that come together with the intent of | 00:23:56 | |
| preventing anymore suicide. So I'm actually going to let them speak because they are way better out of time. | 00:24:02 | |
| Good morning. Good morning. Thank you for having us. Really I'll keep it brief, but I just want to take the opportunity to say | 00:24:12 | |
| thank you. | 00:24:15 | |
| Thank you for caring and for supporting suicide prevention. We recognize that it's not always a fun topic to talk about, but we | 00:24:19 | |
| also believe that suicide prevention is everybody's business. | 00:24:24 | |
| When we take the time to be vulnerable and checking on our people, we can normalize mental health and we can make it OK to ask for | 00:24:30 | |
| help. | 00:24:34 | |
| So I want to encourage you to check in on your friends, your families, your neighbors. | 00:24:38 | |
| And really, I just want to say thank you for caring. It's the communities here that I see today that really do make me optimistic | 00:24:42 | |
| for a brighter future with fewer suicides. | 00:24:47 | |
| Do you mind sharing your name with us so that we Yes, my name is Alyssa Selby. I'm the program coordinator for our SESS team. | 00:24:53 | |
| That's our suicide education and support services. | 00:24:58 | |
| In addition, I also facilitate our Imagine Zero World County coalition. Thank you, thank you. We also would like to share with us | 00:25:02 | |
| today. | 00:25:06 | |
| You 2 turned around and looked behind. | 00:25:15 | |
| Well, excellent, Commissioner Jesus, everything you'd like to add this one? I, I do. I have said it before, I'll say it again. We | 00:25:19 | |
| have a mental health epidemic in this nation. | 00:25:23 | |
| It is far more serious than any virus we've ever battled. It is perhaps the most important public health matter that we deal with | 00:25:27 | |
| today. | 00:25:30 | |
| That will continue to advocate for that. So we'll continue to focus on May so we don't have to focus on September. I agree with | 00:25:34 | |
| you. | 00:25:37 | |
| And so let's lean into that, you who do your work in prevention and counseling, your angels, and thank you for what you do. | 00:25:40 | |
| God bless you and may you continue well in your work. | 00:25:47 | |
| Couldn't agree more with Commissioner James, he's just always has it so eloquently. | 00:25:51 | |
| But when you think of the number of ones that we have had in well County. | 00:25:56 | |
| I think of the numbers we could have without all of what you have done for us and I or the bottom of my heart. Thank you so much | 00:26:00 | |
| and. | 00:26:04 | |
| And God's theme. | 00:26:08 | |
| Mr. Friedman. | 00:26:10 | |
| Yeah, You know, I think probably just about everybody who's been touched by somebody that has committed suicide, a couple of | 00:26:11 | |
| people in my life, thank you. Thankfully years ago, but. | 00:26:17 | |
| You know, it's one of those things that you just don't see it coming until it's. | 00:26:23 | |
| So what you guys do is extremely important. Scott's right, Commissioner James, right. Mental health is a huge issue in this | 00:26:27 | |
| country. So thank you for what you guys do every day. | 00:26:31 | |
| And I just want to thank you from the bottom of my heart as well. Just. | 00:26:36 | |
| Very special mission that you have and not one that everybody can actually embark on and not let them. | 00:26:40 | |
| Affect their daily lives as well. | 00:26:46 | |
| That's a very dark place where people go, and for you to be able to sit in that rescue mission, repel down there and grab these | 00:26:48 | |
| folks. | 00:26:51 | |
| Before they do something irreparable to themselves and others in their community. | 00:26:55 | |
| Just hats off to you. That's amazing. Thank you. | 00:27:00 | |
| I would agree with all my fellow Commissioners. | 00:27:04 | |
| As I was reading the. | 00:27:07 | |
| Proclamation. Uh. | 00:27:08 | |
| IS, Commissioner Freeman stated most of us have been. | 00:27:10 | |
| You know, involved with somebody close to us that. | 00:27:13 | |
| Committed suicide and that's actually what's running through my head was. | 00:27:16 | |
| Those those uh, uh. | 00:27:19 | |
| Friends and family members that I've lost by this and. | 00:27:21 | |
| I thank you for your guys''s work and the awareness to this. | 00:27:25 | |
| People need to know that there's help. | 00:27:29 | |
| Their support out there. | 00:27:31 | |
| I appreciate you and. | 00:27:33 | |
| And Commissioner James, you're right, it's if we can continue to tackle. | 00:27:34 | |
| Mental health and and. | 00:27:38 | |
| We stand up May and and beyond me because it's all year round. | 00:27:40 | |
| It's it's great work because. | 00:27:44 | |
| This is the final solution and it's a permanent solution and we don't want that. We want people sticking around and they mean too | 00:27:47 | |
| much to all of us and I think it's important for all of us. | 00:27:51 | |
| To take a moment. | 00:27:56 | |
| Throughout our busy days and reach out to individuals. | 00:27:57 | |
| Sometimes you never know it it's it might be the. | 00:28:00 | |
| The call or the the greeting that they need and and. | 00:28:03 | |
| And it helps them out. So I really appreciate you guys doing this. That means a lot to me and too many others and. | 00:28:06 | |

| Corp. | 00:35:18 | |
| Good morning, Good morning, Commissioners Eric Green, Flow County Public Works. | 00:35:22 | |
| This agreement allows for an existing Atmos Energy gas metering station to be relocated in the northeast quadrant of the Kenwood | 00:35:26 | |
| 41 and State Highway 52 intersection project. | 00:35:31 | |
| Existing gas metering station was within private property prior to New Rd. Railway being acquired and therefore Weld County has to | 00:35:35 | |
| provide funding for relocation of the facility. | 00:35:40 | |
| The estimated cost of the relocation is $199,000. | 00:35:45 | |
| $794.33. | 00:35:49 | |
| The agreement also allows for 1820 linear feet of an existing atmos energy gas name to be relocated. | 00:35:53 | |
| For the roadway project. | 00:36:00 | |
| And this gas main is located within Weld County Road 41 right away and therefore this work must be completed. The atmos energy | 00:36:02 | |
| sole cost. | 00:36:06 | |
| Now, following these relocations, removal or abandonment of all gas means no longer in service. | 00:36:10 | |
| Will be completed by Weld County's roadway contractor. | 00:36:17 | |
| Reason for doing this is it lessens impact to and increases safety for the traveling public. | 00:36:20 | |
| These costs for removal or abandonment of the gas mains are estimated to be 8626 dollars. | 00:36:26 | |
| This amount is being credited towards the existing gas metering station relocation costs. | 00:36:33 | |
| Therefore, the total the total amount payable to Atmos is determined to be $191,168.33. | 00:36:38 | |
| Funding for this amount is accounted for in the World County Public Works 2024 budget. | 00:36:47 | |
| The agreement has been reviewed by the County Attorneys office and signed by Atmos Energy. | 00:36:52 | |
| It was provided as a pass around dated August 20th, 2024 and approved by all 5 commissioners to include on the agenda. | 00:36:56 | |
| Staff is asking for the board to authorize the chair signature on the agreement so that payment can be issued at Miss Energy. | 00:37:04 | |
