Code Department of Fountain, CO
2006 Colorado Association of Code Enforcement Officials
Department of the Year
This is the first year that our association has given a DOTY award, and this very first award went to Fountain, Colorado, a small community with a very big heart! Fountain has two full-time code officers (including the supervisor) and one part-time officer. According to Juan Flores, the supervisor, the thing that makes their department so special is their “esprit de corp, and that they conduct themselves with honor, integrity, and fairness.” Lisa Cochrun, the Fountain Economic Development Director says that there are three traits that the code department displays, and they are, “professional, caring, calm under fire.” She ended her Letter of Recommendation by saying, “I think Juan and his crew deserve department of the year many times over!!”
