Colorado · Special Districts · §§ 32-11-101 to 32-11-817 · 209 sections

Overview

The Urban Drainage and Flood Control Act governs stormwater drainage and flood control in an urbanized area of Colorado by creating a special district with defined boundaries, governed by an appointed board of directors subject to conflict-of-interest limits, fidelity bonding, and open meeting and record requirements. It grants that district authority to plan, authorize, and construct drainage and flood control facilities, to review and approve facilities proposed by others, and to cooperate with other public bodies in the area. The district's funding mechanisms include property tax levies and collection, service charges, sinking funds and levies to cover deficiencies, and borrowing approved through district elections.
