The bill makes the following changes to the local government and special district election codes:

  • Revises statutory citations to clarify that the Colorado local government election code is the portion of the election code applicable to special district elections;
  • Provides additional statutory citations to specify all instances in which a county assessor provides a list of property owners for an election.

The board of directors of a special district currently consists of 5 or 7 directors elected at large. The bill provides a process for dividing a special district into separate director districts and for members to be elected from each director district at large or by the electors within each director district.
