A discussion took place regarding the request for Insurance

Don Warden reported that other counties are adopting Weld's
self-insured workman's compensation system. It was also stated
by Mr. Warden that this system does cover Council members. Upon
a request from Bill Rupp, Don Warden agreed to, if desired, provide

of claims and yearly fluctuation of those claims.

A talk ensued concerning Weld County's involvement in loans for
Colorado Counties, Inc. It was stated by Commissioner Johnson that,
by having Weld County handle the CCI loans, Weld County would be
benefiting all Colorado counties while reflecting strong leadership.

lobbying position. Don Warden added that Weld County, by involving
