A team of six professionals who deal with the inner-workings and the infrastructure of municipalities converged on Julesburg last Tuesday. They had one focus on their mind…Julesburg.

The assessment was paid for through a grant provided by DOLA, the Town of Julesburg, and the Sedgwick County Commissioners.

The team met with representatives from the business community, local foundations, elected officials , healthcare providers, historical society, housing authority, library board, school system, welcome center, service organizations, financial institutions along with farmers and ranchers from the area over the course of six “group” meetings. They also toured the town, businesses, and surrounding area to get a feel for the community.

Julesburg can expect a full report in 6 weeks. The matrix will outline specific steps to be taken as well as the best suited organization to perform it and timeline to follow. Focus areas will include organization, promotions, economic restructuring, design, healthcare and funding. The team will do a follow up in six months then and will interject suggestions as needed.
