Lake County board asks state to reclassify county to increase elected officers' pay
Summary
The Lake County Board adopted resolution 2026-08 asking the Colorado General Assembly to reclassify Lake County under CRS 30-2-102 so elected county officers would move up one pay step; the motion passed with an abstention and an unclear recorded tally.
The Lake County Board of County Commissioners on Feb. 19 adopted resolution 2026-08 asking the Colorado General Assembly to reclassify Lake County for county officer salary categorization under Colorado Revised Statutes 30-2-102.
Candace Bryant, who led the item, told the board the change would ‘‘bump up one step on the pay amount for all all elected offices in Lake County.’’ She framed the measure as applying to the incoming round of elected officials and noted that one named official would be affected in a future election cycle.
The resolution was moved and seconded; one participant stated, "I abstain." The clerk announced the resolution passed. The transcript does not record full vote tallies or the names of the members who moved and seconded the motion.
The resolution requests that the General Assembly reclassify Lake County under CRS 30-2-102 so that county officer salary categorization would reflect the requested higher step. The board did not set a timetable in the meeting for when the request would be sent to the General Assembly.
Next steps: the resolution, as adopted, is a formal request directed to the General Assembly; the transcript does not specify any additional county-level actions or a staff assignment to track the request.
