SAFE-285 Rally Update

After a series of organizational meetings-SAFE-285 held its first rally Friday at 3:00 in the parking lot of Crow Hill Bible Church.  Despite the rain-40 local residents and business owners assembled to discuss the response to CDOT’s intended plans to remove the light at Highway 285 and Park County Road 43A on Crow Hill.

Reporters for the Flume and Canyon Courier interviewed members of the steering committee, which later selected Mark Linné as the Chair for the group.

SAFE-285 is working to coordinate efforts among local residents, public leaders, HOAs and other interested parties to make sure that CDOT considers the needs of local residents as it seeks to make substantive changes to traffic flows in our local community.

We are focusing on gaining additional public notice and getting the word out to residents, public leaders and stakeholders in the process of gaining and coordinating neighborhood support.  We are exploring a number of additional options including the potential of an injunction to help slow down the process and provide the time to consider the best solution that meets the needs of local residents and the traveling public.

With your help, ideas and energy-we believe that we can make a difference working together.  We are gaining good media coverage and believe the critical momentum is just beginning.

We expect to have our website up in the next few days and to additionally expand our media presence. 

We look forward to seeing you on Sunday and continuing to build a meaningful coalition our next rally on Sunday July 26th at 12:00 noon in the lower parking lot of Crow Hill Bible Church.

The time to get involved is now!

Cheers!
