Board of Directors

Several people sitting at a U-shaped conference table in a conference room.

The Denver Regional Council of Governments Board of Directors guides its strategic vision and oversees the organization's operations.  It convenes at 6:30 p.m. on the third Wednesday of every month at 1001 17th St., Denver, CO 80202. In addition to its monthly meeting, the Board meets virtually for a work session at 4 p.m. on the first Wednesday of each month. Video from Board meetings and work sessions is posted to the DRCOG calendar.

DRCOG has 59 participating member governments and each has an elected official as its representative at the Board table. In addition, the governor appoints three non-voting representatives to the Board and the Regional Transportation District has a non-voting representative. The Board elects officers each February.
