      Concerning a requirement that legislative council staff present
           a study of the transportation commission districts of the

      Be it enacted by the General Assembly of the State of Colorado:

      regional transportation authorities and districts, and
      transportation planning regions.
      
           SECTION 2.  Safety clause. The general assembly hereby finds,
      determines, and declares that this act is necessary for the immediate
      preservation of the public peace, health, and safety.
