City of Greeley Establishes Oversight Committee to Guide Transparent Review of West Greeley Project

Applications open March 20 will run through March 30 for residents to play a role in shaping next steps for West Greeley

GREELEY, Colo. - The City of Greeley today announced it is now accepting applications for the West Greeley Citizen Oversight Committee, a citizen advisory group established to support transparency, public engagement and informed decision-making as the City evaluates next steps for the Catalyst Project.

The West Greeley Citizen Oversight Committee is being created following the February 24, 2026 voter-approved repeal of Ordinance 30, 2025, which previously established zoning for the proposed development area in West Greeley. As the City works through next steps, the committee will provide a structured forum for ongoing review of project information and continued public involvement.

“We’ve heard clearly that residents want to be part of the conversation moving forward,” said Mayor Dale Hall. “This committee creates an opportunity to bring those perspectives into the process as we take a step back, do our due diligence and determine the best path forward for Greeley.”

The committee will review financial, zoning and planning information related to the project and provide feedback and recommendations to City Council and staff. It will also support efforts to improve communication with residents and receive regular updates on project developments and related economic activity in West Greeley.

The group will include nine Greeley residents, with representation from across the city’s wards where possible, and is expected to serve for approximately six months. A City Council member will participate in an ex-officio capacity, with City staff providing administrative and subject-matter support.

Members should be prepared for a significant time commitment, including weekly meetings lasting approximately two to three hours, anticipated to be held in the late afternoon or early evening. Participants will be expected to review materials in advance and engage in structured discussions as part of the advisory process.

Applications will be accepted through the Boards and Commissions platform on the City of Greeley’s website beginning March 20, 2026, and will close on March 30, 2026. Applicants must be residents of the City of Greeley. City Council is expected to review applications at its April 7 meeting.

Additional information about the committee, including expectations and responsibilities, will be available as part of the application process.
