The Dolores County Board of Commissioners unanimously appointed Christy Copass, Mary Davis and Doug Funk to the Dolores County Public Library board at a special meeting on Sept. 10, 2025.
The appointments fill three vacancies on the library board that resulted from recent resignations, including one by a person identified only as "Cindy" in the record. County staff and the library board reported that interviews were held with the three candidates and recommended their appointment.
According to materials presented to the board, Copass is a dentist who lives in Rico, Mary Davis is a retired school teacher who lives in Dub Creek, and Doug Funk is described in the record as a retired journalist. The library board told commissioners it believes the candidates' interest in the library will make them assets to the board.
Commissioner Alman moved to approve the meeting agenda and later moved to approve expenditures, which the board described as largely utility bills; both motions were seconded and adopted by voice vote. Commissioner Elman moved to appoint Copass, Davis and Funk; the motion was seconded and approved unanimously. The transcript records a brief question about a property sale and the residency of an individual but does not document any formal challenge or additional action related to eligibility.
After completing the appointments and routine business, the board adjourned the special meeting and proceeded to a scheduled budget workshop.
