Gilpin supervisors reappoint planning and zoning members, table some terms for follow-up
Summary
Supervisors reappointed members to the planning commission and zoning hearing board to staggered terms but tabled some appointments pending outreach to incumbents; the board discussed statutory 3- and 4-year terms and the need to confirm interest before finalizing terms.
The Gilpin Township Board reappointed members to the planning commission and zoning hearing board in staggered terms intended to restore statutory rotation. After discussion about municipal planning code expectations for four-year terms and prior practice of annual reappointments, the board reappointed Donna Rentler (one-year), Brian Bing (two-year) and Jim Catless (three-year) to staggered planning commission terms where appropriate.
Supervisors acknowledged some confusion in past motions and agreed to reach out to incumbents before finalizing all appointments; several items were tabled to the February meeting to allow staff to confirm willingness to serve and to ensure the correct term lengths are recorded. The board also voted to reappoint zoning hearing board members (Beverly Bish, Beth McCollum, Jim Catless variants) to staggered terms.
Clerk and staff were assigned to contact incumbents and provide contact information so new appointees can be notified of upcoming meetings.
