Two have nothing on the back not maintained, one nothing on front. One at Eureka, other at Gladstone, other at Ophir by 550. All look not maintained with old posters and empty space. I would like to put the Sanjuanfriangle.org map on three. The map is the most detailed available for San Juan Triangle and there are two in county bldg., one in city bldg. and more going up in Silverton. New maps in covered billboard will help public and look like someone cares. tplsanuantnange.org, Norm San Juan Triangle Project troyt3gage@durangolumber.com troy63gage@durangolumber.com)> Sun, Jun 22, 2025 at 8:45 PM Reply-To: troy63gage@durangolumber.com To: dmin@uamancooaoous [Quoted text hidden] L ttps!/mail.google.c omimaluona-asewt2wsaaschatsamMsSISANSTPNAvaamsemtisp41358539128A. 1/2 6/24/25, 3:00 PM SANY0073.jpg mpslimaigoole.omimalohacNuaanMOamwamesamrGONCTamgheaRaectbr-lamessagePante-os 1/1 6/13/25, 10:18 AM San Juan County Mail Big News: Baker's Park.

In San Juan County, several Brownfields projects are underway; these efforts are separate from the Bonita Peak Mining District Superfund Site (BPMD) activities. One key Brownfields projects is the Lackawanna Mill Site, which sits outside the BPMD site boundary but overlooks the Town of Silverton. A conceptual design was produced to reflect community feedback and ideas, including future uses such as a recreation hub, event space, and public gathering area. Assessment of the mill site was completed in January of 2025 through an EPA Brownfields grant awarded to the Town of Silverton. A structural analysis of the mill building is planned for summer of 2025. The results will help guide cleanup strategies and determine how the site may be reused in the future.
