Loveland to end board and commission term limits in November 2027, cap chairs at three consecutive terms

Loveland City Council decided that board and commission members will have no term limits starting in November 2027, while chairs will be limited to three consecutive terms.

Starting in November 2027, members of boards and commissions will have no term limits. Chairs will be limited to three terms in a row.

Council extended the implementation timeline for a new boards and commissions handbook adopted this spring. It also decided to use term-limit guidelines from the old handbook.

The city has a contract with A-1 Organics to take organic materials for recycling. Council approved a change that raises the 2026 contract price to as much as $1.145 million in enterprise funds. The city said the change reflects growing demand for organics services and the cost of processing materials carried over from last year.

Council approved the city's 2027 budget, rates and fees. The budget prioritizes funding critical business needs, keeping service levels steady and retaining city staff, the city said.

Council gave first approval to assign $935,499 from Northern Colorado Airport's unassigned fund balance to runway widening at the airport. A federal aviation grant will reimburse the airport for nearly two-thirds of the funding, the city said. The measure will return for a second and final vote at a future meeting.

Council moved its Nov. 3 meeting to Nov. 4 due to Election Day, the city said.
