Mr. McCloskey was elected as mayor in 2020. He and his family followed the dream to be engineers on some the country's oldest railroad steam engines. He can be found tinkering away in the Georgetown Loop Railroad shop or testing his skills of patience in one of our many town meetings. Silver Plume's mayor is a volunteer position and we count ourselves fortunate to be able to rely on the gifts and talents that Mr. McCloskey brings to the table.
In 2014, after her tenure as the town clerk for Georgetown, Tammy took over the same challenging position for the town of Silver Plume. As one of only two town employees, she has become a cornerstone of the community and plays an absolutely crucial role in keeping everything running smoothly. You can usually find Tammy at the Town Hall M-Th from 10am-1pm. If you can't find her, call mountain rescue, she may just be buried under an avalanche of paperwork. You can reach Tammy at:
In 2018, Silver Plume decided it was time to spruce things up a bit. For issues regarding public properties and town assets, you can find Tai roaming around the streets or in the town workshop. If you need assistance from the town for any kind of maintenance needs, you can reach our Public Works Department at:
