Colo. Rev. Stat. § 32-1-902.7

Current through Acts effective through 5/29/2024 of the 2024 Legislative Session
Section 32-1-902.7 - Director districts
(1) The board may adopt a resolution to divide the district into director districts. A district with a five-member board may be divided into five director districts and a district with a seven-member board may be divided into seven director districts. Each director district must have, as nearly as possible, the same number of eligible electors and shall be as contiguous and compact as possible. In making the division, the board shall consider existing or potential developments within the proposed director districts that, when completed, would, in the reasonably near future, increase or decrease the number of eligible electors within the director district. The board shall then select from its members a representative of each director district, and if possible, the representative shall be an eligible elector from within a boundary of the director district they are selected to represent. Thereafter, directors must be eligible electors of the director district that they represent. If, after a reasonable time, the board determines that it is in the best interest of the district to revert to a single district format, the board may eliminate the director districts and thereafter operate as a single district by adopting a resolution.
(2) If a board divides a district into director districts pursuant to subsection (1) of this section, the board shall also designate whether the directors representing the director districts must be elected at large, or by the eligible electors within each director district. If, after a reasonable time, the board determines that it is in the best interest of the district, the board may reverse this designation by adopting a resolution.
