Meet Tim Dietz

A trusted conservative ready to protect your tax dollars.

Tim Dietz, candidate for Douglas County Treasurer

Tim Dietz is running for Douglas County Treasurer because he believes taxpayers deserve a leader who is transparent, fiscally responsible, and committed to conservative values.

Tim has spent his career making executive-level financial decisions — managing budgets, leading organizations, and making the tough financial calls that keep operations running and dollars accounted for. That experience isn't a talking point; it's how he has earned his living and his reputation.

Douglas County voters don't have to take that on faith. Tim serves the people of Castle Rock as the District 6 Town Councilmember, where his record speaks for itself: he was instrumental in getting the Crystal Valley Interchange built after years of delay, championed the creation of the Castle Rock Youth Commission and serves as its Council liaison, and has consistently fought for the parks, recreation, and family amenities that make our community a great place to raise kids.

Tim is a dedicated member of the Douglas County community — a family man, a person of faith, and a Republican who believes in limited government and responsible management of public funds.

What Does the County Treasurer Actually Do?

It's one of the most important offices most voters never hear about. Every property tax dollar in Douglas County passes through it.

Bills & Collects Property Taxes

The Treasurer sends the property tax bill for every home and business in Douglas County and collects the payments — for the county, our schools, towns, and special districts, all in one place.

Distributes the Money

Collected taxes don't stay in one pot. Every month the Treasurer apportions the money out to the schools, municipalities, fire and special districts, and county government that levied it — accurately and on time.

Banks & Invests County Funds

The Treasurer is the county's banker, safeguarding public funds and investing them under Colorado statute — with safety first, liquidity second, and yield third. Sound judgment here earns real money for taxpayers; poor judgment loses it.

Handles Delinquent Taxes

When taxes go unpaid, the Treasurer administers the annual tax lien sale required by state law — a process that must be run firmly, fairly, and by the book, because homes and livelihoods are on the line.

Serves as Public Trustee

In Colorado, the elected Treasurer also serves as the county's Public Trustee — administering foreclosures and releasing deeds of trust when homeowners pay off their mortgage. Integrity in this role is non-negotiable.

What It Does Not Do

The Treasurer doesn't set your home's value (that's the Assessor) and doesn't set tax rates (each taxing entity sets its own mill levy). The Treasurer's job is stewardship: collect, protect, invest, and distribute your money correctly.

Experience That Fits the Job

The Treasurer's office is a fiscal executive role. Here's how Tim's experience lines up with what the office demands.

Managing large sums of public money

The office demands

Accountability to taxpayers

Answering directly to the public for how their money is collected, held, and distributed.

Tim brings

A public record as Castle Rock's District 6 Town Councilmember — casting votes on town budgets and priorities in the open, and standing behind every one of them at the ballot box.

The office demands

Delivering results, not rhetoric

Running an office where the work either gets done correctly and on time — or it doesn't.

Tim brings

A track record of follow-through: instrumental in getting the Crystal Valley Interchange built for Castle Rock and all of Colorado, and building the Castle Rock Youth Commission from an idea into a lasting institution.

Serving every resident with integrity

From a family paying their tax bill to a homeowner navigating the Public Trustee process.

Tim brings

Deep roots in this community — a family man and person of faith who shows up, from Memorial Day ceremonies to Parker Days, and treats every neighbor's concern as worth his time.
