The City of Walsenburg, Colorado
 
 
City Council

The City of Walsenburg is divided into four wards with two council members elected from each ward. Together, these eight council members and the Mayor, elected at-large, make up the nine-member City Council.

Bruce Quintana - Mayor


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. We have two wonderful boys. 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 North entry to town and building, along the hogback, a territorial styled gateway into our community.

 

Jim Moore - Council Member, Ward 1 - four year term


With appointment to our council in 2009, it is an honour to offer both experience and background to support our local government. Previously the Office Manager for the City of Aguilar, I learned valuable municipal management experience, and earned commendations on critical operations achievements. I also worked previously to assist our city on important project development, and gained a wealth of knowledge over issues that still require a great deal of work to accomplish.

As a homeowner since 1997, the economic stability and quality of of life in our community remains my concern. I dedicate my service to our city staff and all residents who depend on the future of Walsenburg.
