Weld County commissioners rescind first ordinance over penalties
Weld County commissioners on Monday unanimously reversed the first reading of a proposed ordinance to regulate and license private security patrol firms and employees. The measure would have set a $9,000 bond, a $25 annual firm license, and $10 per employee, with penalties described as misdemeanors. Legal questions and questions about publishing the first reading prompted the repeal so the ordinance can be properly rewritten.
