Paul resigns as acting health department head in Weld County
Paul Glen, longtime Weld County Health Department sanitarian and acting director since August, resigns at a Weld County Board of Health meeting. Nurses issue a letter detailing six concerns including lack of a permanent medical health officer, no medical direction on the board, and inadequate staffing. They urge a 20 to 28 full time staff increase by 1980 and call for an interested medical doctor to join the board.

Gasoline shortage hits farmers in Weld County
Farmers face the latest local gasoline crunch as major Weld County distributors expect to meet demand through summer but farmers may get less than past supplies. Rich McMahon of La Salle notes limited new farm accounts and partial tank fills, with rising summer pressure from harvesting and tourist traffic. Diesel scarcity also tightens, though stockpiling may cushion summer demand. Local stations report shorter hours and limited sales while nationwide shortages spread to toll roads and heating oil.

Bill would change livestock tax value
A Colorado House bill to tax livestock on a percentage of market value moves out of the Agriculture and Livestock Committee after two months. Sponsor Rep. Lowell Sonnenberg seeks a 16 percent tax basis this year, stepping down by one percent annually to a permanent 4 to 10 percent level, potentially raising taxes in the short term but lowering them long term.
