WELD COUryryTY
Windsor-Severance Fire Protection District COMMISSIONERS
1.RECITALS. Section 32-1-208, C.R.S., requires each special district formed prior to the
enactment of Section 32-1-201, C.R.S., to submit on or before July 1, 1986, a
Statement of Purpose to the applicable county or counties and any municipalities
in which the district lies. The Windsor-Severance Fire Protection District (the
"District") was formed by order and decree of the Weld County District Court on
July 27, 1950, (Case No. 1950CV11685). At the time of organization, the "service
plan" requirement had not been enacted. It is the good-faith belief that the District
submitted a Statement of Purpose to Weld and Larimer Counties (the "Counties")
in 1986 in compliance with state law. However, the District recently became aware
that the Counties have no record of the District's Statement of Purpose. The
District was also unable to locate its original signed Statement of Purpose and is
therefore providing this Statement of Purpose to the County as a renewal of the
original Statement of Purpose.
2.GENERAL STATEMENT OF PURPOSE. The District was organized pursuant to
Section 32-1-101, C.R.S., et. seq. (the "Act") as a special district for the purpose
of providing fire protection and related services to its residents and taxpayers and
the public in general. The court decree vests the District with all statutory authority
afforded to a governmental subdivision of the State of Colorado and a body
corporate with all the powers of a public or quasi-municipal corporation. By law the
District is empowered to provide firefighting services, fire prevention and inspection
services, ambulance services, emergency medical services, rescue services and
diving and grappling services. The District reserves the right to provide any or all
of these services at any time during its existence.
3.SERVICES AND FACILITIES. The District currently provides, or reserves the right to
provide in the future, all services permitted by the Act, including but not limited to
the following named services, either directly or by contract, and maintains the listed
facilities.
