Dolores County commissioners appoint Nolan Henkins to public library board
Summary

The Dolores County Board of County Commissioners unanimously appointed Nolan Henkins to the Dolores County Public Library Board at its March 16, 2026 meeting, filling a vacancy created by the death of longtime board member Caroline McCustin.
A letter from Mara Allen, bookkeeper for the Dolores County Public Library Board, recommended Henkins and noted that the library board had interviewed him and voted to accept his nomination. The letter said Henkins "is enthusiastic and will bring some perspective and ideas from the younger generation in our community," and the board cited his prior work with the county fair as evidence of that engagement.
Commissioner Element moved to appoint Nolan Henkins; the motion was seconded and carried with an all-affirmative vote. The transcript records three "yes" votes and no objections. The board approved routine expenditures and meeting minutes earlier in the session before taking the appointment vote.
The board adjourned the commission meeting to reconvene at 9:30 a.m. as the Board of Health and to hold a 10:00 a.m. workshop on an HVAC matter. No additional procedural steps for Henkins’ swearing-in were recorded in the transcript.
