Budget and Financial Update:
The 2013 year end is rapidly coming to a close and with it several very exciting events are astir in the Treasurer's office:
On December 4, 2014 the Town Council approved the financial budget for the 2014 calendar year. This included setting fees, setting the Mill Levy, and adopting the budget. This document will help to guide the Town through 2014 by outlining revenue sources, labor needs, and special projects.
December 31st is the fiscal year end for the Town. With that, all accounts, both revenue and expense, will be settled up and prepared for the annual audit.
In mid to late February, the Town will undergo its annual audit. As a governmental agency of the State of Colorado, we are required by law to conduct a financial audit by an outside entity.
Any and all of these documents are available during regular business hours in the Treasurer's Office.
Clerk's Office Update:
Again, a very exciting time of the year for the Clerk's Office as well. Aside from the normal work of liquor licenses, business licenses, and records, 2014 is an election year. The Town of Minturn elections are held the first Tuesday following the first Monday in April of odd years. Therefore, Election Day is April 8, 2014. Four Council seats and the Mayor's seat will be up for election. Of those running for Council the candidate winning the fourth place slot will be elected to a two year term; the top three vote winners will be elected to four year terms. The Mayor is a two year term.
Those interested in running for Council may contact the Clerk's Office during regular business hours for information.
