Glenwood Springs City Council to meet in-person for Thursday s meeting

  The Glenwood Springs City Council will meet in-person Thursday for the first time since March of 2020 for their regular city council meeting, according to a news release. Public meetings for other city boards and commissions will gradually return to in-person meetings as well, a news release states. “City Council, Board and Commission meetings and work sessions are public meetings and are open to the public,” the release states. “At the beginning of each regular meeting, there is a time for public comment for items not appearing on the agenda. Meeting recordings and virtual participation for presenters and the public will continue to be available only for regular city council meetings and for planning and zoning commission meetings.”

Glenwood Springs approves Parks and Rec request to add more full-time staff, increase wages

The approved motion also included providing signing bonuses to encourage recruitment and retention. The changes would cost a total of $352,330, which would be offset by a 33% increase in park shelter rental fees, $200 million in unallocated stimulus funds and reallocating funds already within the parks and recreation budget, according to Parks and Recreation Director Brian Smith. Smith said the department is currently drowning under the workload due to being seriously understaffed. “When we shut down and laid off 118 staff we effectively wiped out everything we’ve built over the last 20 years. As we re-opened only 13 staff have come back,” Smith said during the presentation.
