Call for Applications - Historic Preservation Commission Expiring Term and Alternate Vacancy

Gilpin County is accepting applications to fill one Historic Preservation Commission term expiring December 31, 2025, and one vacancy for the Alternate position. Current members whose terms are expiring are welcome to reapply.

The Historic Preservation Commission is a six-member body (five regular members and one alternate) appointed by the Board of County Commissioners. The Alternate serves as a voting member whenever a regular member is absent and may be appointed for a full term.

Applicants must demonstrate an interest, competence, or knowledge in historic preservation. Because the Commission must maintain at least 40% professional membership, the expiring regular seat must be filled by an applicant with a professional preservation background (e.g., history, architecture, archaeology, planning, architectural history, or similar). The current alternate seat does not require professional credentials or county residency, though both are highly desirable.

Interested individuals are invited to submit a letter of interest and should include a resume or statement of qualifications. Applicants will be scheduled for an interview with the Historic Preservation Commission before recommendations are forwarded to the Board of County Commissioners for appointment.

The deadline for applications is November 10, 2025.
