County to advertise vacancy on cemetery district board; commissioners schedule traveling town hall in Mancos
Summary
A letter of intent was received from Anita Munoz for a cemetery district position; commissioners agreed to advertise the vacancy for seven days to remain consistent with prior practice and announced a traveling town hall in Mancos at 6 p.m.
The board reviewed a letter of intent from someone identified as Anita Munoz for an expiring term on a cemetery district board and directed staff to advertise the vacancy for seven days before filling the seat to remain consistent with the county’s standard advertising practice.
A county staff member told commissioners that Munoz’s term expires Jan. 25 and that the county has a post office box but no telephone contact for her on file. Commissioners and staff agreed that a seven‑day advertisement period would be appropriate so that the opening would be publicly posted and any additional applicants could come forward.
Separately, commissioners announced they will hold a traveling town‑hall meeting in Mancos at 6 p.m. at the community center and reminded attendees of a swearing‑in ceremony for newly elected county commissioners the next morning at 10 a.m. in the combined courts building; the regular meeting will start at 11 a.m.
Why it matters: Advertising the cemetery board vacancy preserves an open application process consistent with county practice and gives potential applicants notice; the traveling town hall provides a local opportunity for residents to speak with commissioners.
No formal appointment was made during the workshop; the board agreed to advertise the vacancy.
