Garfield County proceeds with $87,250 bid to clean up Glenwood-area homeless camps, illegal dump site

A pile of trash located in the homeless camp on the hillside behind Walmart in south Glenwood.
Garfield County will move ahead with an $87,250 contract to clean up a privately owned hillside property east of Walmart in Glenwood Springs that for multiple years has served as a homeless encampment.
However, county commissioners hope to line up other funding partners, including perhaps the property owner, to help defray some of that cost.
Commissioner Mike Samson was hesitant to have the county commit to the contract with ECOS Environmental of Glenwood Springs without lining up some of those outside commitments first.
“I’d like to know if the property owner is willing to help for some of this,” he said. “We haven’t had those conversations.”
