The Denver Gazette: The Douglas County Board of Commissioners intends to petition the Colorado Supreme Court to review a recent court decision that found the board had violated the Colorado Open Meeting Law.

The case stems from 11 “closed, unnoticed” meetings held by the county commissioners between December 2024 and April 2025, as well as three executive sessions related to the county’s efforts to hold a home rule special election, according to court documents. 

“Douglas County believes the appellate court’s unusual application of the Colorado Open Meetings Law is inconsistent with the 54-year-old statute,” the county said in an April 9 statement.
