| Description of Subjects/Issues |
On July 10, 2020, Governor Jared Polis signed HB 20-1293, which provided comprehensive updates to Colorado 9-1-1 funding through changes in §§ 24-33.5-2103, 25 3.5 903, 29-11-100 to -107, 39-21-113 and 119.5, and 40-2-131, C.R.S. In addition to numerous other revisions related to the provision of emergency telephone service, HB 20-1293 provides the Commission with additional authorities and duties in regulating 9-1-1 service funding in the state, and immediately required the Commission to set a new statewide 9-1-1 surcharge by October 1, 2020, to take effect on January 1, 2021. The changes proposed are reflective of the changes to Colorado statute realized by the enactment of House Bill (HB) 20-1293 and are consistent with draft rules developed through informal stakeholder workshops led by Commission staff prior to the issuance of this Notice of Proposed Rulemaking. |
