Gilpin County Community Wildfire Protection Plan Open House

The Gilpin County Community Wildfire Protection Plan (CWPP) Open House is tomorrow, August 8 at the Gilpin County Historic Courthouse, 203 Eureka St., Central City, from 6 pm to 8 pm. We all need to share our input into this important plan! There is more information about the plan on the county website at gilpincounty.colorado.gov.

Reminder: August Board Elections

Our Annual Meeting is scheduled for Sunday, August 18, at Columbine Park starting at 11:30. We will begin with a talk on noxious weeds by Jennifer Cook, Director, Gilpin County CSU Extension. The business part of our meeting will follow which includes voting on our budget and electing two board members (our other three board members remain on the board for another year).


While counting ballots, we will hear from candidates for Gilpin County Commissioner. Our barbecue will begin after the announcement of our new board! Bring a side or dessert to share and your own beverages - we will provide hot dogs and hamburgers.


Consider running for the board! If you are interested in running, send an email to Dory Lakes Secretary at dorylakessecretary@gmail.com. To be listed on the proxy voting form, we will need to hear from you before August 9.


If you would like to volunteer to count the election ballots and are not running for the board, contact Gary Sloneker at dorylakespoa@gmail.com. If we do not get volunteers, a member of the current board will count the ballots.


Voting Eligibility and Proxy Voting

We will start checking voting eligibility at 11:30 AM as each property owner, regardless of number of properties owned or number of people owning the property together, gets one vote. Also, only those property owners who have paid their dues this year will be allowed to vote. Please make sure you are current on your dues PRIOR to the meeting. We will not be accepting dues payments to vote at the meeting.


If you cannot make the meeting but wish to send in a proxy vote, we will be setting up an online form the week prior to the meeting to collect those proxies (will we share a Nextdoor post and send an email with a link to the form). If you prefer, you may also email our President at dorylakespoa@gmail.com with your votes, per our by-laws (please do not give your proxy to a neighbor - either email the President or use our online form).
