Windsor Town Board Discusses Risk Management Training, New Records System, Recreation Center Feasibility, and Golf Cart Regulations

The Town Board held a special meeting on May 18th. The meeting included a proclamation for National Police Week and Peace Officers Memorial Day. The main portion of the meeting consisted of a training session by Sam Light, Deputy Executive Director and General Counsel for CIRSA (Colorado Intergovernmental Risk Sharing Agency), covering various aspects of elected official responsibilities, risk management, transparency, ethics, and quasi-judicial rules of engagement. This training aimed to equip elected officials with knowledge to mitigate risks and ensure good governance. The board also reviewed updates on the Windsor Records Management System (RMS) project, which proposes replacing the existing 20-year-old system with a new cloud-based system called Mark 43. The presentation highlighted the benefits of the new system, including increased efficiency, enhanced data analytics, improved security, and cost-effectiveness, with an estimated implementation timeline extending into 2027. Additionally, an update was provided on the feasibility study for a new recreation center, discussing market potential, community support, proposed locations, amenities, and cost implications, including potential partnerships with the Town of Severance. The meeting concluded with board action on a resolution to amend permits for golf cart and low-speed electric vehicle use in specific neighborhoods and an executive session.
