Please help us show Rachael, the 21st Judicial District Attorney's Office facility dog, extra gratitude this week as it marks three years of her service to Mesa County, making children feel better during meetings when discussing complex and traumatic information.

The E Road Phase 2B Mesa County Flood Reduction at Lewis Wash Bridge Project is on the horizon after the Mesa County Commissioners approved a $2,087,324 contract for construction at the Oct. 17 administrative public hearing.

Today, the Board of County Commissioners recognized Joaquin, an eight-year-old in our community, for his outstanding character and leadership. Recently, he took it upon himself to remove inappropriate graffiti from the Rocky Mountain Elementary Park playground. He did this to protect his younger peers and ensure that the playground continues to bring children and our community joy.

The Mesa County Co-response was initiated in the summer of 2023 to improve the response to mental health crises and behavioral health issues in the community by integrating clinicians into patrol teams to ensure that individuals in crisis receive specialized support from a dedicated team of professionals.

The Board of Public Health announced Xavier Crockett and Todd Hollenbeck as finalists in the search for a new Executive Director. Director will be named by the end of the year.
