Meet Greg

About Greg Haitz:

Conservative. Proven. Ready to Serve.

Mesa County Roots

Greg Haitz is a lifelong Coloradan and proud Western Colorado native. As the second oldest of nine children, Greg grew up understanding the value of hard work, personal responsibility, and strong family foundations. He and his wife Andrea chose to raise their own family right here in Grand Junction, where they’ve lived, worked, and served for over two decades.

Small Business Leadership

In 2007, Greg founded Rimrock Wellness Center, a clinic that integrates chiropractic care with wellness services. As CEO and founder, he has:

  • Managed budgets and payroll for over 23 years

  • Navigated regulations and balanced growth as well as economic downturns

  • Served over 10,000 clients with integrity

Greg understands firsthand the challenges local businesses face. He brings the kind of real-world financial and operational experience that’s crucial for managing millions in public funds.

Fiscal Stewardship in Public Service

Greg currently serves on the Mesa County Planning Commission, where he helps guide land use, zoning, and major development decisions that shape the county’s future. Through this work, he’s reviewed budgets, weighed fiscal impacts, and advocated for practical, community-first solutions.

He is a two-time graduate of the Inside Mesa County program (2022 & 2024), gaining hands-on knowledge of how county departments operate and how taxpayer dollars are allocated.

Statewide Leadership & Legislative Wins

Greg has led beyond Mesa County, serving on the Board of the Colorado Chiropractic Association, including as President in 2018. He stepped into leadership during a tumultuous period of fiscal uncertainty for the association—when finances were unstable and the board itself was fractured and dysfunctional.

Through disciplined financial oversight, steady leadership, and a focus on unity over ego, Greg helped restore the association’s financial footing, stabilize operations, and rebuild trust within the board—bringing it back together as a functional, mission-driven governing body that served chiropractors across the state more effectively.

His leadership highlights include:

  • Launching an opioid task force to promote non-pharmaceutical pain care alternatives

  • Collaborating across agencies to pass SB18-239, legalizing animal chiropractic care

  • Receiving the Chiropractor of the Year award in 2017 and again in 2018

This experience made Greg well-versed in restoring financial stability, managing complex organizations, building consensus in divided environments, and leading through institutional reform—not just policy debates.

That’s exactly what the Treasurer’s office requires: steady stewardship of public funds, disciplined financial management, transparency, and leadership that puts stability and service above politics.

Leadership Program of the Rockies (LPR)

Greg is a graduate of the Leadership Program of the Rockies (Class of 2021)—Colorado’s premier conservative leadership program dedicated to developing principled leaders grounded in constitutional governance, free-market economics, and individual liberty.

LPR is not a political résumé builder; it is a rigorous, values-driven program focused on the proper role of government, fiscal restraint, separation of powers, and respect for the Constitution. Participants receive in-depth training from nationally recognized scholars, policymakers, economists, and legal experts on topics including:

  • Constitutional limits on government authority

  • Sound fiscal policy and responsible stewardship of public funds

  • The dangers of centralized power and bureaucratic overreach

  • Transparency, accountability, and ethical leadership in public office

  • Free-market solutions versus government dependency

Through this training, Greg sharpened his understanding of how government should function—not as a controller of outcomes, but as a careful steward of resources entrusted by the people. The County Treasurer is not a policy-making role—it is a fiduciary role. LPR reinforced Greg’s conviction that public officials must treat taxpayer dollars with the same care and discipline as their own.

As Treasurer, Greg will apply the principles reinforced through LPR by:

  • Protecting taxpayer funds through conservative, lawful investment practices

  • Prioritizing transparency so citizens can clearly understand how their money is managed

  • Respecting statutory limits and avoiding mission creep within the office

  • Ensuring the Treasurer’s role remains professional, apolitical, and accountable

Greg’s LPR training, combined with decades of real-world experience as a small business owner and financial decision-maker, equips him to serve as a steady, principled steward of Mesa County’s finances—focused on trust, restraint, and responsibility, not politics.

Equipped to Serve: Inside Mesa County Graduate

I am proud to be a two-time graduate of the Inside Mesa County class, completing the program in both 2022 and 2024. This comprehensive, free 8-week civic education course offers an in-depth, behind-the-scenes look at how our local government functions, bringing together interactive presentations, facility tours, and direct engagement with county departments and elected officials.

Inside Mesa County is designed to provide participants with a deep understanding of the responsibilities and operations of county government—exactly the type of insight that prepares someone to lead with knowledge, transparency, and accountability. Through this program, I gained firsthand exposure to how key departments work together to serve our community and learned directly from the professionals who carry out those duties each day.

Completing this class twice not only strengthened my understanding of local government structure and challenges but also reinforced my commitment to effective public service. These experiences have equipped me with a solid foundation in county operations, financial stewardship, and community-focused leadership—essential qualities for the office of Mesa County Treasurer.

Why He’s Running

Greg isn’t a career politician. He’s a lifelong member of this community—a local business owner, board member, husband, and father who has spent decades in Mesa County raising his family, building a business, and serving his neighbors.

Greg understands that the Treasurer’s Office isn’t about politics—it’s about trust. Taxpayer dollars should be managed with the same care, discipline, and accountability that families and small businesses expect in their own finances.

He’s running because Mesa County deserves a Treasurer who is rooted here, invested here, and committed for the long haul—not someone passing through or moving on to the next political opportunity.

Greg is here to serve, to follow through on commitments, and to do the job with integrity and consistency. He’s not going anywhere.

As Treasurer, Greg will:

  • Bring fiscal discipline, transparency, and accountability to the Treasurer’s Office

  • Ensure accurate, efficient collection and distribution of tax revenues

  • Protect taxpayers from waste, inefficiency, and bureaucratic overreach

For Greg, public service isn’t a stepping stone—it’s a responsibility. And when he commits, he sees it through.
