            Current law authorizes a regional transportation authority to

       its territory, but the authorization is scheduled to repeal on January 1,
       2019. The bill extends the authorization until January 1, 2029.
       
       
       
       Be it enacted by the General Assembly of the State of Colorado:
            SECTION 1.  In Colorado Revised Statutes, 43-4-605, amend (1)
       (j.5) as follows:
            43-4-605.  Powers of the authority - inclusion or exclusion of
       property - determination of regional transportation system alignment

       the authority pursuant to this part 6, the authority has the following
       powers:
            (j.5) (I)  Subject to the provisions of section 43-4-612, to impose
       a uniform mill levy of up to five mills on all taxable property within the

       power of an authority to establish local improvement districts and impose
       special assessments as authorized by section 43-4-608.
            (II)  This paragraph (j.5) is repealed, effective January 1, 2019

       referendum petition is filed pursuant to section 1 (3) of article V of the
       state constitution against this act or an item, section, or part of this act
       within such period, then the act, item, section, or part will not take effect
       unless approved by the people at the general election to be held in
