Transparent Jeffco Events
You're invited to four citizen input meetings, which are designed to give you an opportunity to weigh in on important issues.  Venues include Littleton, Lakewood, Evergreen and Arvada!

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.
