Hearings On Transportation Commission Districts
Transportation Legislation Review Committee. The bill requires the transportation legislation review committee to meet 5 times before November 15, 2017, once in each geographic quadrant of the state and once in the Denver metropolitan area, to:
- Make available to meeting attendees the 2016 research study of changes to the state transportation commission districts (districts) since the boundaries of the districts were last redrawn in 1991, prepared by legislative council staff with the cooperation of the department of transportation as required by House Bill 16-1031; and
- Offer opportunities to members of the public to express their opinions regarding the districts or the research study and offer comments and suggestions regarding whether the districts should be modified.
The committee may consider the availability of remote testimony, and a public hearing conducted by remote testimony for the purpose of obtaining testimony from a single geographic quadrant of the state or from the Denver metropolitan area may count toward the requirements of the bill.
