Caitlin Carey
Garfield County Commissioner, District 2
As your County Commissioner, my time in office will be marked by community listening and collaboration, because this is not about me, it is a ‘we’.
I will work with neighboring counties to support our growing community, combat the rising cost of living and invest in housing, transportation, and mental health services.
I will protect our county’s natural resources and beauty by building resiliency against wildfires and droughts, and championing our water rights and public lands.
I will work to diversify our economic portfolio, working to eliminate reliance on revenue from the oil and gas industry. This means we need to bring in not only clean energy sources, but focus on building other sources of revenue.
I will clear the weeds of government excess and waste so that you, the community, can be better informed about the work being conducted by your local government. Critical information will be easily found on the county website.
