Interested in Local Government?
Advisory Boards and Commissions Seek Applicants
The League of Women Voters of Larimer County recommends two ways for a person to participate in their local government. Becoming an Observer of meetings allows you choice of agencies and topics (try more than one!). Reach to us at info@citizenobserversco.co. Another option is to apply to directly serve as member of a board or commission. These opportunities are now available:
