Board of Adjustment, Board of Public Health, others seek applicants
Published on June 25, 2025
The Board of Adjustment has an immediate need for three new members: all are At-Large members, who can each live anywhere in Weld County.
Members conduct hearings and decide appeals concerning administration or enforcement of the Weld County Zoning Ordinance. Residents of all backgrounds are welcome to serve. A background in land-use, planning, real estate or building is helpful, but not required. Each member needs to reside in Weld County. The board meets the first Tuesday of the month at 11 a.m. only when there is business to conduct.
The Board of Public Health is seeking one resident to serve on the board: a Weld County resident who lives in Advisory Board District 2 (Eaton, Galeton, Windsor, Briggsdale). The Board of Public Health conducts hearings and listen to different presentations from the health director and staff and provide recommendations regarding biosolids, septage applications and variances for onsite septic systems. Anyone with an interest in public and environmental health is encouraged to apply. The board meets the fourth Tuesday of every month, except December, at 9 a.m.
Other boards and commissions in need of volunteers include the Area Agency on Aging, Building Trades Advisory Committee, Extension Advisory Council, Human Services Advisory Commission, Noxious Weed Management Advisory Board, Weld County Building Code Board of Appeals, Weld Faith Partnership Council and Workforce Development Board.
“Advisory boards help us provide the best services every day to residents and businesses throughout the county,” Weld County Chair Perry Buck said. “The work volunteers do helps us decide how our services can be most effective.”
Each advisory board varies in its mission, but they consist of residents who are relied on to provide expertise, knowledge and input to county commissioners and departments on issues affecting various segments of the community. Board members also suggest ways that government services can be improved or best implemented to reach the most people and have the greatest impact. Additionally, those who serve can expect to grow both personally and professionally from the experience.
Applications are being accepted through July 23, 2025. To learn more about these opportunities and apply, visit www.weld.gov/go/boardopenings.
