What Others are Saying About Transparent Jeffco
As your County Commissioners, we are pleased to present this transparency feature of our Web site. It will provide easier access to information about county programs and services and how your tax dollars are spent. - (L to R) Commissioners Kevin McCasky (Dist. 1), Kathy Hartman (Dist. 2) and Faye Griffin (Dist. 3)
The Jefferson County Board of Commissioners held four Citizen Input Meetings, designed to give people the opportunity to weigh in on important issues and tell Commissioners what services and programs are most important to them.
The meetings took place during the last two weeks of October and the first week of November. Citizens learned about the current state of the county, used an interactive keypad system to answer questions from Commissioners, and had the opportunity to ask questions and comment on the issues that matter most to them.
