Pursuant to Section 32-1-202, CRS, the Service Plan may not be approved if
a petition objecting to the Service Plan and signed by the owners of
taxable real and personal property which equals more than fifty percent of
the total valuation for assessment of all taxable real and personal
property to be included in the District, is filed with the Board of County
Commissioners no later than ten days prior to the hearing, unless such
property has been excluded by the Board of County Commissioners under
Section 32-1-203 (3.5) , CRS. Property owners seeking exclusion of their
property may also file a petition for exclusion with the Commissioners no
later than ten days prior to the hearing.
If the Service Plan is approved by the Commissioners, the petitioners will
petition the Court for an election on the issue of formation. Pursuant to
Section 32-1-305(3) , CRS, the owner of real property within the proposed
District may then file a petition with the District Court in and for Weld
County, stating reasons why said property should not be included within
the proposed District and requesting that such property be excluded
therefrom. Such petition shall be duly verified and shall describe the
property sought to be excluded.
The District Court will hear said petition and all objections thereto at
the time of the hearing on the petition for organization and shall
determine whether, in the best public interest, said property should be
excluded or included in the proposed District. Such petition may be filed
any time after the petition for the organization of the District is filed
with the District Court, but not later than ten days before the day fixed
for the hearing on the organizational petition. Notice of that Court
hearing will be published at a later date.
