<br />
<br />RE: CONTRACT NO. C153314
<br />TOWN OF PARACHUTE
<br />
<br />Gentlemen:
<br />
<br />Pursuant to your letter of May 22, 1984, addressed to
<br />Ralph Freedman, Town Administrator, I am furnishing you with
<br />this opinion letter as Parachute Town Attorney, as to the
<br />following matters:
<br />
<br />(1) The signator to the above-referenced Contract
<br />Amendment, Floyd McDaniel, is the duly elected mayor of the
<br />Town of Parachute, and in that capacity has the authority to
<br />contractually bind the Town of Parachute, upon his signature
<br />being duly attested by the Town Clerk, Laura Bergh;
<br />
<br />(2) The Contract Amendment has been validly approved
<br />by motion duly made and seconded at a meeting of the Board
<br />of Trustees of the Town of Parachute on June 14, 1984, at
<br />which time a quorum of the Board was present and voted on
<br />the motion, A copy of the minutes evidencing such approval
<br />are attached hereto.
<br />
<br />(3) The Board of Trustees of the Town of Parachute has
<br />the authority to enter into the Contract Amendment without a
<br />vote of its residents under the "water supply exception" of
<br />the Colorado Constitution, Article XI, Section 6, since it
<br />appears that the Contract Amendment and the antecedent
<br />contracts referenced therein are entered into for the
<br />purpose of augmenting the domestic water supply system of
<br />the Town.
