    WHEREAS, Richard Lamm, a state legislator, three-term Governor, and passionate Coloradan, left a lasting and historic legacy on his beloved state of Colorado; and WHEREAS, Governor Lamm’s life is a tapestry of service, starting in the armed forces and ending in the Colorado State Capitol; and WHEREAS, Governor Lamm was a trailblazer, taking on every challenge Colorado faced, always with the wellbeing of Coloradans at the forefront of his mind; and WHEREAS, he will be remembered by many for his passion for and dedication to environmentalism, sparked by his successful and unprecedented effort to block the 1976 Winter Olympic Games; and WHEREAS, Governor Lamm fought tirelessly to protect Colorado’s economy, environment and citizens from the negative impacts he believed the games would leave on Denver, facing stiff opposition from the business community he stood resolute on behalf of what he believed; and WHEREAS, this effort not only gained Governor Lamm national political notoriety, but solidified his reputation to cross party lines and create strong bipartisan coalitions to do what was best of the state; and WHEREAS, in 1967, then Representative Lamm championed legislation paving the way for legal women's reproductive rights in Colorado, 6 years preceding the Supreme Court decision on Roe V Wade. By 1970, 13 states had followed his and Colorado’s leadership and passed similar laws; and WHEREAS, during the same year, Representative Lamm co-sponsored Colorado’s landmark public records legislation, creating the Colorado Open Records Act, created

The responsibilities of the position have changed and duties have been expanded and diversified. Similarly, the MACo staff has grown, from the charter staff of Executive Secretary Lovelace and a stenographer, to the seven staff members who serve the organization today. Each Executive Director has not only redefined the position, but, along with his or her staff, has helped to shape and develop MACo itself. Robert Lovelace As discussed in the previous chapter, Robert Lovelace, a former city manager, began his duties with the Association upon the establishment of the Symons Hall office beginning June 1, 1960. Per the agreement with the University of Maryland, he joined their staff as a lecturer in American Government. As the first Executive Secretary, as it was then called, Lovelace set the pace and provided a basic structure for those that would come after him. As is the case today, in 1960 the SACCOM Board was made up of county officials for whom Association service was only one aspect of their responsibilities; Lovelace was the first person involved with the organization that could focus wholly on its development.
