| Statutory Authority |
The statutory authority for the proposed rules is found in §§ 24-4-104(4), 40-2-108,
40-2-110.5, 40-7-113(2), 40-10.1-101, 40-10.1-801, C.R.S. |
| Purpose/Objective of Rule |
By this Decision, we adopt temporary rules to regulate vehicle booting companies in accordance with § 40-10.1-801, C.R.S. That section was added by Senate Bill (SB) 19-236 and prohibits vehicle booting companies from operating in Colorado after January 1, 2020 without a Commission-issued permit. A permanent rulemaking is underway, but it is unlikely that permanent rules will be in effect by January 1, 2020. Therefore, we adopt these temporary rules to protect the public and to avoid an interregnum that could result in booting companies being unable to lawfully operate in Colorado. Because the Commission anticipates the permanent rules will be in place soon, these temporary rules are effective for 210 days from the effective date of this Decision or until the Commission adopts permanent rules. |

| Comments |
Senate Bill 19-236 requires vehicle booting companies to obtain a permit from the Commission before operating in Colorado. See § 40-10.1-801, C.R.S. The General Assembly through the passage of SB 19-236 indicated a policy of authorizing vehicle booting companies to operate and provide booting services in Colorado effective January 1, 2020. Awaiting completion of a permanent rulemaking under Title 24 to determine the form and manner of a permit application would delay the process for authorizing vehicle booting companies to operate in the state. Adoption of temporary rules therefore will promote the General Assembly’s policy of authorizing vehicle booting companies’ operations. |
