The Bluff Town Council was scheduled to meet on Tuesday, September 15, 2026, to address several municipal items, according to an agenda published September 14.

The meeting, held at the Bluff Community Center Building, included discussions on road improvements for Cottonwood Addition and a potential stance regarding San Juan County Proposition 7.

The council was scheduled to review and vote on several administrative matters, including the award of a legal counsel contract and an interlocal agreement to provide building inspection services for Monticello City.

Additionally, the agenda included a vote to adopt an employee benefits policy and a review of the vehicle use policy. The council was also scheduled to discuss the status of 6th West and vote to place the Cottonwood Addition Road Improvements Projects on hold.

A key item on the agenda involved the Town Council's stance on San Juan County Proposition 7. Mayor Josh Ewing proposed that the council support the passage of the proposition, which would increase sales tax revenues to support Emergency Medical Services (EMS) in San Juan County.

The mayor's proposed position states that because visitors to San Juan County are major recipients of EMS services, the sales tax provides an equitable way for tourism to support EMS without increasing resident property taxes.

Other scheduled items included a joint discussion with the Bluff Planning and Zoning Commission regarding proposed zoning code changes.

Other upcoming items mentioned in the agenda included the issuance of a Housing Consultant RFP on September 21, a pancake breakfast on September 19, and a meet the candidates event on September 30.
