Weld County approves reorganization of sheriff's office; resolution amended to note board lacks managerial authority
Weld County Commissioners approved a reorganization of the Weld County Sheriff's Office that eliminates the position of support services supervisor effective Aug. 27, 2025. Sheriff Donnie Patch presented the organizational evaluation and recommended the position be removed.

Commissioner Scott James moved to amend the resolution's language after consultation with the county attorney, noting the board does not have managerial authority over the sheriff's office. James proposed revised “whereas” language stating the reorganization followed the sheriff's recommendation and requested the board recognize the structure reflected in an attached organizational chart. The amendment was seconded and approved. The board then approved the amended resolution.

The transcript records the board's approval by roll call/voice with no recorded opposition. The county attorney had reviewed the proposed bylaws and language prior to the vote, according to commissioners' remarks. The record does not include personnel names affected by the position elimination or specific operational changes beyond the position title and effective date.
