problems before. Et Christy Rodriguez, resident of Greeley, stated she is also opposed to the changes.
She expressed the County buildings are not the property of the County Commissioners. She stated, in
her opinion, the code is discriminatory and it is wrong to change the use of the buildin s and users of the
buildings should follow certain rules and suffer consequences if protocol is broken. al In response to
Commissioner Cozad's question, Mr. Barker explained the code gives the Board the ability to say which
groups can use the buildings. IE Commissioner Conway expressed he believes these buildings are
for the public use, and if the new ordinance is approved, it will prohibit non-profit organizations from using
the buildings. He suggested starting over on the code to change the language. Commissioner Cozad
expressed a need to clarify the uses of the buildings because all the offices and buildings can't be
available to use whenever. Mr. Barker expressed the way the code is written now limits the ability to set
rules, which could result in unintended consequences. Commissioner Moreno stated there is a need to
find some middle ground. Commissioner Cozad moved to continue said matter to January 18, 2016 to
allow for a full Board. The motion was seconded by Commissioner Conway, and it carried unanimously.
