The Huerfano County Board of County Commissioners (BOCC) meeting on September 23, 2025, focused on several key issues, including the approval of a secured transport license and amendments to the county's fire ordinance.

The meeting began with the approval of a secured transport license for Colorado Secured Transportation LLC. The company sought permission to operate a 2014 Ford Explorer Interceptor for secure transport. The commissioners approved the license with the condition that the vehicle passes an inspection for rodent breaches. The motion received unanimous support from the board members.

Following the transport license discussion, the commissioners moved on to action items, specifically addressing an order to amend Chapter 10 of the Northwell County Code related to fire regulations. The proposed amendments aim to update fines, clarify definitions, and streamline the process for future changes to the code. A significant change includes the removal of exemptions for permanently constructed burn barrels, which are illegal under state and federal law. This decision reflects ongoing discussions and disagreements between local fire districts and state authorities regarding the legality of these burn barrels.

The meeting concluded with a commitment to continue updating other chapters of the county code in a similar manner, ensuring clarity and compliance with legal standards. The amendments to the fire ordinance are expected to enhance safety measures within the community.
