We Need You
Dear Weld County Residents,
We know government doesn’t work well without
your involvement; that’s why we invite you to
participate in your local government by joining one
of our County Boards or Commissions.
County Boards and Commissions allow Weld
County residents to apply their knowledge and
expertise toward making Weld County
a great place to be.
Those serving on a board or commission provide
their input and decisions to County
Commissioners and other leaders in county
government regarding a number of items.
Residents may apply to serve on any of the 21
boards and commissions.
Some boards or commissions require background
knowledge, experience in a certain field,
or residency requirements.
Those interested in applying, may contact
Jenny Fuller at the Office of the Board at
[email protected].
Again, thank you for your help and participation in
making Weld County a wonderful place.
Sincerely,
The Weld County Board of Commissioners
“There is incredible value in
being of service to others.”
