Teller County meeting summaries, agendas, and minutes

Teller County commissioners take up 2027 proposed budget; no outcomes yet recorded

Teller County commissioners were scheduled to hear a presentation of the 2027 proposed budget at their Oct. 8 meeting at the Centennial Building in Cripple Creek, alongside a planning commission appointment, a proclamation and several agreements. Minutes from that meeting have not been published, so the records available for this roundup do not show what was approved, rejected or amended, and they contain no vote tallies or dollar figures. The same is true of the county's other two recent meetings.

No recorded outcomes yet

All three recent meetings — Oct. 6, Oct. 8 and Oct. 13 — are documented here by agenda only. Agendas list what a body intends to take up; they do not establish results. Nothing in the supplied records confirms that any item was acted on, and no amounts were provided for any contract, change order or budget. This roundup reports what was scheduled, not what was decided.

2027 proposed budget presentation heads Oct. 8 agenda

The Oct. 8 agenda listed a presentation of the 2027 proposed budget first, followed by business items the board was set to consider:

• Appointment of Marion Clare as a regular member of the Teller County Planning Commission
• A proclamation designating October 2026 as Breast Cancer Awareness Month
• Ratification of Mid-Colorado Construction, LLP Change Order #01
• Approval of Engagement Terms Contract with RubinBrown, LLP for the 2026 Financial Audit
• Approval of a Professional Services Agreement with Page Construction, Inc.
• Ratification of the AMN Language Service Agreement

The agenda also listed routine items including minutes, accounts payable and reports. Each business item is worded as a matter to be considered; the records do not state an outcome for any of them.

Oct. 6 work session: no formal actions by design

The Board of County Commissioners met Oct. 6 at 800 Research Drive, Suite 230, in Woodland Park. The agenda scheduled a regular meeting of the Teller County Board of Health at 9:30 AM, County Administrator discussion items on calendar and department updates at 11:00 AM, and Commissioners' discussion items at 12:30 PM, followed by adjournment.

The agenda states that work sessions are informal discussions, that the Board does not take formal actions at them, and that no public comment is taken. No ordinances, contracts, dollar amounts or public hearings appeared in the supplied agenda text.

Oct. 13: Pinestone Ranch project discussion

The Oct. 13 work session agenda listed a meeting of the Board of Human Services, a discussion regarding the Palmer Land Trust Pinestone Ranch Project, and County Administrator department updates. The agenda describes the session as informal discussion; no action or outcome is recorded.

Coming up

Oct. 20 — Board of County Commissioners work session. The agenda lists a meeting of the Teller County EMS Council and updates from the County Administrator. The session is described as informal discussion with staff and invited guests, and no formal actions are to be taken.

Smith; a Statement of Work for Teller County Public Health and Environment regarding the Child Fatality Prevention and Maternal and Child Health Programs; and Employee Service Awards. The meeting also includes accounts payable and department reports.

The Oct. 22 budget amendment resolution is the item on the upcoming calendar that would change county fund budgets if adopted. Residents can attend to see whether it passes; the agenda does not state amounts for the amendments.

Teller County commissioners take up 2027 proposed budget; published agendas record no formal decisions

Teller County commissioners met three times in the past two weeks, according to agendas supplied for those meetings. None of the three agendas records a formal decision, and minutes have not yet been published for any of them, so the outcome of the items listed is not established in the available records.

The most consequential item on the schedule was a presentation of the 2027 proposed budget, listed on the agenda for the board's regular meeting on Thursday, October 8, 2026, at the Centennial Building in Cripple Creek. No dollar figures appear in the supplied agenda text, and no vote or result is recorded.

2027 proposed budget

The October 8 agenda lists a "2027 Proposed Budget Presentation" alongside several business items. Because only the agenda is available, the roundup cannot report what was presented, what the budget totals, or whether the board acted on it.

Other items listed for October 8

The same agenda listed the following items for consideration:

• Appointment of Marion Clare as a regular member of the Teller County Planning Commission
• A proclamation proclaiming October 2026 as Breast Cancer Awareness Month
• Ratification of Mid-Colorado Construction, LLP Change Order #01
• Approval of Engagement Terms Contract with RubinBrown, LLP for the 2026 Financial Audit
• Approval of a Professional Services Agreement with Page Construction, Inc.
• Ratification of the AMN Language Service Agreement
• Routine items including minutes, accounts payable, and reports

Each is listed as an item to consider. The supplied agenda does not state whether any was approved, denied, or postponed, and it does not include contract values or change-order amounts.

Work sessions September 29 and October 6

The board held work sessions on Tuesday, September 29 and Tuesday, October 6, both at 800 Research Drive, Suite 230, in Woodland Park.

The agendas state that work sessions are informal discussions and are not public hearings. The public may attend to listen, but public comment is not taken, and the board states it does not take formal actions at work sessions.

On September 29, the agenda listed County Administrator's discussion items — calendar and department updates — at 9:00 a.m., followed by Commissioners' discussion items at 11:00 a.m.

The supplied agenda does not list a location.
