Summary
At the Jan. 14 meeting, the Pueblo County Board of County Commissioners accepted the Clerk and Recorder’s December 2024 fee report, approved consent appointments and authorized an executive session to discuss legal advice and potential real-estate negotiations.
PUEBLO, Colo. — The Pueblo County Board of County Commissioners on Jan. 14 approved several procedural items by voice vote and authorized an executive session to receive legal advice and discuss negotiations.
The board voted to accept and file the Pueblo County Clerk and Recorder statement of fees collected for December 2024. The motion to accept and file the December 2024 fee report was made and approved by voice vote; no roll-call tally was recorded in the public meeting minutes.
On the consent agenda, the board reappointed Gina Dutcher to the Pueblo County Liquor and Marijuana Licensing Board to fill one advertised vacancy. The board also ratified appointments of agency designees to serve on the Pueblo County Juvenile Community Review Board; the staff presentation said the board was established by Pueblo County in the 1990s and that the seats with expired representatives include those from the sheriff’s office, the police department, the Division of Youth Corrections and the Department of Human Services. The consent agenda passed on voice vote.
County Attorney Cynthia Mitchell requested and the board approved an executive session citing Colorado open-meetings law to receive legal advice and to discuss negotiation strategy. Mitchell identified the statutory basis for the executive session and said the topics would include legal advice on lobbying services contracts, benefits for county officials, regulations regarding employee health insurance coverage and determining positions on matters that may be subject to negotiations. She also said the session would include discussion of a potential contract to sell 119 North Santa Fe Avenue and related purchase, acquisition, lease, transfer or sale of property interests.
The board moved into executive session after a motion and second and a voice vote of “aye.” The board did not take other formal public actions on those items during the open meeting.
