Board adopts ordinance designating June 19 as Weld County holiday
Summary
On second reading, commissioners adopted Code Ordinance 2026‑08 to change the county human resources code and designate June 19 (Juneteenth) as a fixed Weld County holiday; no public comment was offered during the public hearing.
The Weld County Board of County Commissioners approved Code Ordinance 2026‑08 on second reading June 10, amending Chapter 3 (Human Resources) of the Weld County Code to designate June 19 as a county holiday rather than a floating holiday.
Esther Giza, Clerk to the Board, told commissioners there were no changes since first reading and recommended approval. The board opened a public hearing for comments on the ordinance, received none, and then approved the ordinance by motion and voice vote.
The ordinance change moves recognition of Juneteenth from a floating status to a fixed calendar date (June 19). The board record did not include debate or amendments during the second‑reading hearing.
Next steps: the ordinance will be processed per county code and human resources will implement the holiday designation in county calendars and payroll procedures.
