A rough mining town turned resort area that is still run by bar owners and drug dealers has a problem keeping town staff. And they can’t even manage to dig a grave at the cemetery before the memorial service.

At least he bailed before the 90 days were up. As for this town. It looks like it needs some investors to come in and straighten it out.

Hard to do, its business is tourism and it’s busy 10 weeks a year. Nearly completely dead for 6 months and a few visitors trickling in for leaf change season, snowmobiling, ice fishing tournaments, etc. Grand Lake is at the west entrance of Rocky Mountain National Park. When the road connecting GL to Estes Park (Trail Ridge Road) closes in October, tourism drops to almost nothing until June when it reopens.

I am not at all familiar with that area and have never been there. Could a new road be built? When a private developer comes in and builds stuff that needs a road to access, they will pay for the road and "donate" the road to the city, county, or whomever the public owner is that will maintain it.

The road is US Highway 6, and all they need to do is plow in the winter. They plow for a few weeks in the fall and start again in the spring with the intent to open by Memorial Day. It

There is access I-70 in the winter, but it’s a four hour drive to get to Estes that way.
