11:09 AM -- Senate Bill 10-181

Representative McKinley, prime sponsor, presented Senate Bill 10-181, concerning the authority of a municipality to lease lands owned by the municipality. The reengrossed bill gives municipalities the additional option to lease lands that were purchased to acquire water rights. Under current law, municipal water providers may purchase lands that are connected with the acquisition of water rights and may only hold or sell these lands. Representative McKinley addressed questions from the committee and discussed the need for local governments to have the option to lease property acquired for water rights.


11:11 AM

Geoff Wilson, Colorado Municipal League, spoke in support of the bill, explained the need for municipalities to lease property purchased for water rights, and responded to questions from the committee.


11:12 AM

Representative McKinley distributed prepared amendment L.001 (Attachment A), which would prevent municipalities from leasing property for the purpose of expanding a military installation. Committee discussion ensued concerning the amendment.
