Vision for Douglas County
Douglas County is one of the fastest growing Counties in the state of Colorado. It is crucial to balance the growth in our County with the impacts on small businesses, traffic, transportation, parks and open space, water rights, and local education.
As a Board of County Commissioners, it is essential that we create more opportunities to listen to the concerns of our communities, and learn their vision, to ensure positive collaboration as we step towards the future.
Julien is confident that his experience, growing up in and being devoted to this county as a community champion and elected representative, equips him to be the caring and competent Commissioner that the future of Douglas County deserves.
