Mesa County officially has two new county commissioners.

Republicans Pose Pugliese and John Justman were sworn-in on Tuesday.

After winning November’s election, Pugliese replaces Janet Rowland in District Three.

In District One, Craig Meis passes the torch to Justman.

Both new commissioners say it’s been a long road and taken a lot of work to win election.

They look forward to representing their community.

Justman and Pugliese will serve as county commissioners for at least the next four years.

While running for the board, both stated their commitment to growing opportunities for other entrepreneurs in the area.
