Dolores County commissioners appoint three to public library board, approve expenditures
Summary
At a Sept. 10 special meeting the Dolores County Board of Commissioners approved routine expenditures and appointed Christy Copass, Mary Davis and Doug Funk to fill three vacancies on the Dolores County Public Library board; the meeting adjourned and a budget workshop was announced.
The Dolores County Board of Commissioners unanimously approved routine expenditures and appointed three people to the Dolores County Public Library board at a special meeting on Sept. 10, 2025.
A clerk read a letter recommending three candidates to fill vacancies created by recent resignations. The document described the nominees as Christy Copass, a dentist who lives in Rico; Mary Davis, a retired schoolteacher who lives in Dub Creek; and Doug Funk, a retired journalist. The letter said the library board had interviewed the candidates and recommended their appointment.
Commissioner Elman moved to appoint Copass, Davis and Funk to the Dolores County Public Library board. The meeting transcript records a second (spoken as "Mary Davis and I will second that motion") and the board answered "Yes" on a voice vote; the motion carried. The transcript records three affirmative responses to the voice vote.
Earlier in the meeting, Commissioner Alman moved to approve the circulated agenda for the special meeting and later moved to approve expenditures, which staff characterized as largely utility bills; both motions were approved by voice vote.
After completing business on the agenda, a commissioner moved to adjourn and the board closed the special meeting. Staff announced a budget workshop would follow the meeting.
The appointments were recorded in the meeting minutes; the transcript provides the nomination and vote but does not specify when the new appointees will be seated. County records can confirm any further administrative steps or start dates for the appointees.
