Meeting Agenda

Mayor Pro-Tem
Ward 1
Bruce Quintana

I came to Walsenburg in 1995 from San Jose, California. My older brothers were born and raised here in Southern Colorado. I thought I would come and experience Southern Colorado first hand. Not long after my arrival, I met and married my wife (Berrie) here in Walsenburg and we had two wonderful boy's. Since arriving here, I have grown to love this community and would like to see it prosper and flourish. I am currently employed as Chief Appraiser for the Huerfano County Assessor's Office. Currently I am spearheading the Northern Gateway Project. We are sprucing up the northern entry into town and building along the hogback, a territorial styled Gateway into our community.


Ward 1
Lou Taylor

My name is Lou Taylor and I have lived in Walsenburg for almost 5 years. I am currently employed for San Isabel Electric Association as a lineman. I have worked for two other utility companies in the past for a total of 23 years combined. My wife Rachel and I have four children that all attend Huerfano RE-1. Our hobbies include camping, fishing, boating as well as numerous family activities. I look forward to serving as a councilman for the City of Walsenburg.


Ward 2
James England

My name is James England. I am a 44 years old, and of Italian and American Indian heritage. I am originally from Oklahoma and Texas. I moved to Walsenburg three years ago to join my beautiful wife Teresa, who is a school teacher for the RE-1 school district. I will bring to the city council my many years of management experience in many fields of employment that I have enjoyed in my work history. I have worked in radio, retail sales, and also managed a finance company for five years before moving to Walsenburg. I am currently employed at Walsenburg Lumber since my move to Walsenburg. I see serving the voters of District 2 and the citizens of Walsenburg as an honor and a great privilege. I see serving this first term as a chance to give back to the great community that I am proud to call home. I see the continued growth for our community as a primary goal for this new council. I believe in fiscal responsibility to the voters, while maintaining the continued growth of Walsenburg's city infrastructure. I look forward to serving and helping the community grow in the future, and am looking forward to doing my best to make these next two years a stepping stone for great things for Walsenburg.
