Mayor's Message

As we move into March, Frederick continues to focus on delivering reliable services, planning for the future, and keeping our community informed and engaged. Our work each day is grounded in enhancing the quality of life residents expect while preparing for the opportunities and challenges ahead.

On April 7, 2026, the Town will hold a mail ballot election to fill three Board of Trustees positions. Additionally, voters will be asked whether Frederick’s regular municipal election date should be moved from April in even-numbered years to November to coincide with the November statewide general election. This proposed change is intended to increase voter participation, reduce election costs, and allow the Town to coordinate elections with Weld County. Ballots will be mailed to eligible voters in advance, and I encourage every resident to participate in this important civic process to make their voices heard. 

April also brings the return of Clean-Up Days - one of Frederick’s most well-used and appreciated seasonal programs. This initiative provides qualifying residents with landfill vouchers, electronic recycling options, and tree-limb drop-off services. These resources make it easier to dispose of unwanted materials responsibly and keep our neighborhoods looking their best. 

With limited moisture over the past few months, water stewardship remains an important focus this year. Residents are encouraged to explore conservation programs and consider participating in Garden In A Box, which offers water-efficient landscaping options specifically for Colorado’s climate. Thoughtful choices in our parks, yards, and homes help protect our long-term water supply and support a sustainable future for Frederick.

The Town also continues to advance important policy and planning efforts. Recent discussions have included updates on oil and gas inspections, ongoing work to modernize the Land Use Code, and infrastructure planning to enhance safety and connectivity across Frederick. These initiatives help ensure our community remains safe, sustainable, and aligned with resident priorities. 

I also remain committed to being accessible and connected with our community. Mayor’s Office Hours will be held on Friday, March 6, from 9 am to 10:30 am, and Monday, March 9, from 12 pm to 1:30 am  to provide an opportunity to share ideas, ask questions, and discuss the issues that matter most to you and your family. 

Thank you for staying involved, supporting one another, and taking pride in our community. Frederick’s progress is driven by engaged residents, dedicated staff, and a shared commitment to doing what is right for the long term
