REPORT TO THE PEOPLE CLERK
October 20, 1998 TO THE BO/2D
The Weld County Council is mandated by the Home Rule Charter of Weld
County, Colorado, to report to the people the events that have shaped the previous
quarter. This report summarizes the activities of the Weld County Council during the
third quarter of the calendar year 1998.
July 21, 1998 Council Meeting - Galeton Elementary School
• Weld County Compliance Officer Sharyn Frazer explained the Weld County
Planning and Zoning Department's community meetings and an education
program that has drastically reduced the number of compliance violations.
• The Council reviewed the facts it had gathered regarding setting the Coroner's
salary. It was decided to gather more information regarding Weld County
elected officials' benefits before setting salaries.
August 18, 1998 Council Meeting - Milliken Town Hall
• At the August 18, 1998 meeting the Council discussed and set salaries for the
elected officials of Weld County.
• The Council decided to seek more information before ruling on a possible
conflict-of-interest letter received from Commissioner Connie Harbert.
September 15, 1998 Council Meeting - Hudson Town Hall
• Weld County citizens presented their opinions regarding the Weld County
elected officials' salaries that had been set at the August Council meeting. The
Council decided to continue the discussion about salaries at the October Council
meeting.
• Sharon Hopper presented her concerns about the truck traffic generated
because of nine gravel pits in the Rinn area.
• Janet Meisinger reported her petition to run for the Weld County Council had
been improperly denied by the Weld County Clerk/Recorder.
• Tim Erickson reported that he had to pay for documents provided by the office of
the Weld County Clerk to the Board while an employee of the Greeley Tribune
was not charged for the same documents.
During the third quarter of 1998, Council members have researched answers to
questions and concerns brought to their attention by citizens of Weld County. In that
process Council members have talked periodically with the Commissioners and various
Elected Officials and Department Heads.
This report is not meant to be an exclusive enumeration of the activities entered
into by the Council. It is, however, an attempt to communicate with the voters regarding
its activities. The County Council believes that the Weld County Home Rule Charter
continues to be a viable tool for the citizens of Weld County.
