Won't sell fuel to county declares Fort Lupton service stallion
Weld County Councilman John Martin said his Fort Lupton service stallion would not sell diesel to the county government. Commissioner Victor Jacobucci questioned the timing amid possible conflict concerns. County records show a $379 sale in 1976, with two deliveries to county facilities. Martin insisted no soliciting or bidding occurred and that fuel rotations keep county needs in mind. He will not sell in Weld County during his term to avoid potential conflicts. In other action, council members discussed the fiscal impact of a day control ordinance, with Floyd Oliver noting taxpayers’ concerns. They debated costs and the need for dog control, and whether to establish the Humane Society of Weld County as the official animal control agent.

Armstrong: House ethics code weak and fails reform
Rep. William Armstrong says the new House Code of Ethics is insufficient, calls for broader reform. He criticizes travel funds abuse, franking privilege, and office slush fund increases, and notes a personal income limit will require changes to his Colorado Sun and KOSI salaries. He votes against the measure but compliance is required with the April 30, 1978 start date.
