Storm Gloor
Glendale Mayor Pro Tem Storm Gloor has been elected to the Colorado Municipal League (CML) Executive Board, giving the city a stronger voice in statewide discussions on municipal policy and local government issues.
Gloor was elected during the Colorado Municipal League’s Annual Business Meeting on June 24, held as part of the organization’s 104th Annual Conference in Westminster. He joins a 21-member board responsible for overseeing the nonprofit organization’s finances, management, and policy direction while representing the interests of Colorado’s 270 member cities and towns.
His election places Glendale alongside leaders from communities across Colorado who help guide the League’s legislative priorities and advocacy efforts at the state Capitol.
The Colorado Municipal League plays a significant role in shaping legislation that affects local governments. According to the organization’s newly released 2025-2026 Annual Report, CML tracked 218 bills during the 2026 legislative session. The League successfully helped defeat 17 bills it opposed, secured amendments to 18 others, and saw 17 of the 30 bills it supported become law.
Gloor was one of five new members elected to the Executive Board. Others include Boulder Council Member Matthew Benjamin, Northglenn Mayor Pro Tem Shannon Lukeman-Hiromasa, Durango City Manager José Madrigal, and Centennial Mayor Pro Tem Amy Tharp.
Also elected to leadership positions for the 2026-2027 term were Golden Mayor Laura Weinberg as president, Breckenridge Council Member Carol Saade as vice president, and Parker Mayor Joshua Rivero as secretary-treasurer. Lone Tree City Manager Seth Hoffman will serve as immediate past president.
The Colorado Municipal League is a nonpartisan organization dedicated to serving and representing Colorado’s municipalities through advocacy, education, training, and legislative leadership. Gloor’s election gives Glendale direct representation on the organization’s governing board as it continues to address issues affecting cities and towns across the state.
