This was an exciting day but also somewhat bittersweet. Today,there was a leadership change, starting with a thank-you gift for Commissioner Scherr,who turned over his leadership role as the board chair. Commissioner Chandler-Henry thanked Commissioner Scherr for being the fearless leader over the past year. The chair always had extra duties, including keeping things on track during the meetings. She believed Commissioner Scherr had been masterful at it and ushered in a new era of being more involved at the legislative level. She believed there were only great things to come and gifted Commissioner Scherr with a 2024 Eagle County Rodeo belt buckle. Commissioner Scherr thanked the commissioners for the gift and Commissioner Chandler-Henry's kind words. Commissioner McQueeney stated that this transition meeting would continue with a short video thanking Kathy Chandler-Henry for her years of service. Commissioner Scherr stated that he was fortunate to know Kathy before either was county commissioner. She was one of his mentors regarding our community and how to approach leadership and collaboration. He learned only in hindsight that he did not take enough advantage of those times and did not try to take advantage of Kathy's time as much as he knew she would have been willing to give it. As commissioners,they couldn't hang out and have coffee as easily as before. The upside is that she lived across the street from his office,and now she's in trouble. Her wisdom, advice, and sensibility were inspiring. He thanked her for everything she had done and the leadership she'd brought to the county and community. Commissioner McQueeney stated that it had been an honor and a privilege to serve alongside Kathy. It was hard to put into words what her leadership had meant to her. She was reminded of the time she was sitting before the vacancy committee as they were trying to select a new county commissioner and Kathy calmly stood in front of the committee and answered their questions clearly and compassionately. Commissioner Chandler-Henry thanked her fellow commissioners and everyone. It had been her honor and pleasure to work with everyone at Eagle County. Swearing-In Eagle County's Elected Officials Executive Summary: Judge Rachel J. Olguin-Fresquez will be swearing in Commissioners Matt Scherr and Tom Boyd for their new terms. 1 01/14/2025 Commissioner Boyd took his seat as county commissioner and congratulated Commissioner Scherr. He looked forward to working with both commissioners. He spoke about Kathy Chandler-Henry's work in office and in the community and believed that with her departure there was a bit of an empty space. All one could do was take lessons from her 11 years with the county and work day by day to fill in that space. He recognized everyone who helped him get to this point. County staff had done a great job welcoming him and getting him up to speed. Jeff Shroll stated that almost seven years ago Kathy Chandler-Henry welcomed him to the county. She had broken lines and barriers and was fearless in crossing over into a world where people were not always in agreement with her or a decision that the county had made. She had never been afraid to step across the line and listen. She set a standard for that and this was something that everyone needed to live up.
