RE: RELOCATION OF COUNTY FACILITIES
A public forum was conducted on July 15, 1991, at 7:00 P.M. with the
following present:
Commissioner Gordon E. Lacy, Chairman
Commissioner George Kennedy, Pro-Tem
Commissioner Constance L. Harbert
Commissioner C. W. Kirby
Commissioner W. H. Webster
Also present:
Director of Finance & Administration, Donald D. Warden
Acting Clerk to the Board, Carol Harding
The following was transacted:
I hereby certify that pursuant to a news release dated June 27, 1991, and
duly distributed June 27, 1991, and redistributed July 2, 1991, an
informal public forum was conducted to allow the citizens of Weld County
a forum to express their views on the relocation of County facilities.
Approximately 110 individuals were present. Don Warden presented an
overview of the need for facilities, as well as the history of the
creation of the Weld County Business Park, including fifteen notices of
public hearing and ten public hearings. He reviewed the specifics of each
proposal the County has received and explained the pros and cons of each
proposal. Chairman Lacy asked if there was anyone present wishing to
present the views of the proponents of the referendum being circulated.
There were none present. Chairman Lacy then asked for public comment.
Dick Boettcher, Roy Moser, Mark Flores, Ken Lind, Norman Carlson, Zeke
Garretson, Chuck Carlson, John Martin, Jorge Amaya, Glenn Billings,
Richard Hergert, Vic Kindsfater, Bud Johnson, Kenny Monfort, John
Fournier, and Nancy Brigden presented their comments. Chairman Lacy
clarified that we are not filling this building with incarcerated
prisoners, but it will be filled with Criminal Justice employees, most of
which are State employees. Commissioner Harbert stated that the indepth
presentation presented by Don Warden is the same information the Board has
been looking at for the last four months, it was not simply prepared for
tonight's meeting. Commissioner Kirby reiterated that this is the
culmination of five years of planning, not simply four months.
Commissioner Webster stated he is disappointed in the City not having
figures to back up their proposals. He has been hoping for some offer of
a building which is 909, efficient, can handle the high traffic volume, and
allows for expansion for the future; however, this has not been
forthcoming. He does not feel the County should stay in downtown at the
expense of the taxpayer. If it costs additional dollars to stay downtown,
he is against it.
This Certification was approved on the 17th day of July, 1991.
