RESOLUTION
RE: SUBMITTING TO THE REGISTERED ELECTORS AT A SPECIAL ELECTION OF THE COUNTY
OF WELD, STATE OF COLORADO, AN AMENDMENT TO THE HOME RULE CHARTER AND
DECLINING TO SUBMIT A REFERRED ISSUE SEEKING TO REPEAL A RESOLUTION OF THE
WELD COUNTY BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS ADOPTED JUNE 17, 1991
WHEREAS, the Board of County Commissioners of Weld County, Colorado,
pursuant to Colorado statue and the Weld County Home Rule Charter, is vested with
the authority of administering the affairs of Weld County, Colorado, and
WHEREAS, the Weld County Clerk and Recorder reported on August 28, 1991,
that they had reviewed the Petition to Initiate Amendment to the Home Rule
Charter for Weld County and the Petition for Referendum on an Enacted Resolution,
which reports to the Board are attached hereto as Exhibits A and B, and
WHEREAS, Weld County Clerk and Recorder indicated that there appeared to
be a sufficient number of valid signatures on both petitions but further that her
review of the petitions did not extend to whether the subject matter of the
proposed charter amendment and enacted resolution were of an administrative
nature and thus, not subject to initiative or referendum, and
WHEREAS, the Board has received an opinion from the Weld County Attorney's
Office which indicates that both petitions involve subjects which may be
considered as administrative rather than legislative in nature but further that
there is a greater probability that a decision not to place the initiative on the
ballot would be upheld upon judicial review than a refusal to place the
referendum on the ballot, and
WHEREAS, pursuant to Article XVII, Section 17-1 (1) (a) & (3) the Board
shall- publish-ncadce of and call an election to be held not less than 30 nor more
than 120 days after said publication; the text of any proposed amendment to be
published with said notice, and
WHEREAS, the Board directs the Weld County Clerk to the Board to publish
the full text of said proposed amendments along with a Notice of Election no
later than September 26, 1991, and
WHEREAS, within 30 days of receipt of the report, which constitutes
initiation of a proposed amendment to the Weld Countyshall Home
notice leCharter, the
and
Board, pursuant to Article XVII Section 17-1 (3) , publish
call an election to be held not less than 30 nor more than 120 days after said
publication, and
WHEREAS, there is no general election within the 120 days following date
of publication, and
WHEREAS, the Board finds and determines that the referendum on an enacted
resolution pertains to issues of an administrative rather than a legislative
nature and are, therefore, not appropriate issues to be made subject to
referendum pursuant to the Weld County Home Rule Charter and the constitution of
the State of Colorado.

Election Law, the Petition for Referendum on an Enacted Resolution filed by the
Concerned Citizens for Weld County' s Future Committee represented by W. D. Farr,
Robert G. Tointon and Thomas E. Helleri.ch_ has been reviewedalong with the supple-
mental petitions and amended circulator affidavits .
The results of the review are as follows:
Sufficient signatures 304;
Insufficient signatures 1162
Pursuant to the requirements of the Weld County Home Rule Charter and Colorado
Election Law, the number of valid signatures appear to be sufficient as the
petition does bear more than the required 1897 valid signatures .
I am aware that there are questions regarding whether the subject matter of the
Resolution is of an administrative nature and thus , not subject to referendum. I
did not view the determination of this issue to be within my jurisdiction which is
limited to a determination of a sufficient number of valid signatures contained in
the petition.
Along with this report, I am tendering to you the petitions for deposit in the
Clerk to the Board Office and for the Boards further action.
