Bronze Doors and Tablets Mark Weld County Court House
A Weld County court house features bronze doors costing 98 cents per pound and a front entrance valued at 8600. Inside are two bronze tablets bearing the names of the county commissioners, the contractor, and the architect. The piece questions public spending and recalls a past scandal involving a bridge tablet tied to embezzlement. The item ends by noting a local figure Vaplon’s continued travel antics and a columnist’s reaction.
