Volanta Skate Board Park Funding Problems Finally Explained

The Mayor took responsibility for errors made by city staff concerning a state grant  that was to be used for  funding the Volanta Skate Board Park in 2008. The grant was rejected by the state, but has since been re-submitted, with corrections.

[Publisher's Note: A political flier criticizing  the project has been distributed around town recently by a Montrose resident (Paul Ripp).]



In the original (2008) bid proposal, former Recreation Department Head Eddie Boyette was listed as the "point person" for the construction effort.
