Summary
At its Jan. 14 meeting the Chaffee County Board of County Commissioners issued proclamations for departing commissioners Keith Baker and Greg Felt, selected new chair and vice chair, and approved routine agenda items including a liquor-license renewal and several organizational resolutions.
The Chaffee County Board of County Commissioners on Jan. 14 issued proclamations thanking outgoing commissioners Keith Baker and Greg Felt for their service, selected a new chair and vice chair and approved routine agenda items and organizational resolutions.
The board read proclamations that summarized Baker’s and Felt’s years of service, committee work and contributions to county planning, housing and forest-health efforts. Commissioner Keith Baker’s proclamation noted his U.S. Navy service, business and trustee roles and leadership in regional partnerships. Commissioner Greg Felt’s proclamation cited his 40 years in Chaffee County and work on water conservation and regional coalitions.
The commissioners then handled reorganization business. A motion to nominate PT Wood as chair and Gina Lucretze as vice chair was made, seconded and approved without a recorded roll-call tally. The board also approved the meeting agenda and minutes from the previous meeting and adopted a reorganization of committee appointments assigning commissioners to the county’s routine intergovernmental and advisory roles.
The board approved the consent agenda items presented for routine county business and separately approved the hearing consent agenda, which included a liquor-license renewal for Triggers Liquors at 22763 Highway 50. Resolutions formalizing volunteer-board appointments were accepted for subsequent placement on a future consent agenda.
The board approved a corporate housekeeping resolution that removed Commissioner Greg Felt and added Gina Lucretze as a director for the Chaffee County Facilities Corporation; the resolution was presented as an administrative update tied to lease-purchase financing arrangements. The board also approved a separate resolution recognizing Andrea Early Cohen’s service on the Chaffee County Heritage Area Advisory Board.
The board recessed to consider planning commission interviews later in the day; no further substantive policy votes were taken during the session.
