COMMISSIONERS REPORT:
Commissioner Conway discussed the Town meeting that occurred with House Speaker Becker, and
Rochelle Galindo, House District 50 representative, regarding Senate Bill 181. He stated there was a
misrepresentation by Speaker Becker about the Weld County Commissioners agreed to cessation of
forced pooling. He stated he wanted to state for the record the task the Commissioners were trying to
accomplish. Commissioner Freeman stated Chris Woodruff, former Weld County Assessor, supported
the assessment of the property tax at the wellhead. Chair Kirkmeyer reported that the Board was never
in support of doing away with forced pooling, but there needs to be changes in forced pooling made to
protect private property owners. She stated the forced pooling changes in Bill 181 only benefit one
company to create a monopoly. Chair Kirkmeyer expressed her frustration regarding Speaker Becker not
approaching a single County Commissioner or any other major County representing the largest energy
suppliers in Colorado. Commissioner Conway also expressed his frustration about Speaker Becker
misrepresenting that she spoke with and had been in negotiations with the Weld County Commissioners
regarding Senate Bill 181. Chair Kirkmeyer stated she will present Speaker Becker with several
amendments to SB-181.
