The Dolores County Board of County Commissioners completed its 2026 reorganization and approved several routine administrative items at the Jan. 20 meeting.
Commissioners retained Commissioner Stasny as chair and reaffirmed the vice‑chair position. The board approved the 2026 employees list, courthouse hours and holidays, and commissioner liaison assignments to county departments and external boards.
The board readopted the county procurement policy (Resolution 01‑26‑01), presenting it as a readoption without amendment to meet federal grant requirements for senior services and local transportation. Commissioners also approved the Dolores County Senior Services Title VI plan; staff said the plan met the federal requirements necessary for the senior services program.
Other actions included appointing Dr. Pner as Dolores County medical officer pending final contract language, hiring Julie Kyell as the county’s new public health administrator following recent interviews, approving a resolution naming authorized banks for county deposits (Resolution 01‑26‑02), accepting a corrected GIS contract total and renewing the State Line Bar and Grill liquor license. The county also approved its road inventory updates for transportation planning.
Treasurer’s semiannual report showed the county general fund was about $288,000 lower than the same comparison period from the prior year; staff said they would follow up with a more detailed taxing‑entity breakdown. Commissioners asked staff to distribute additional finance details by email for review.
The meeting recessed midmorning and reconvened for the scheduled ambulance licensing and dispatch discussion later in the agenda.
The board signed the approved documents and indicated routine administrative follow‑up would occur through staff and departmental liaisons.
