§ 24-4-103(6)(a), C.R.S. |
| Purpose/Objective of Rule |
By this Decision, the Commission adopts temporary rules to comply with the additions of, or amendments to, §§ 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., pursuant to House Bill (HB) 20-1293. Among its requirements, § 29-11-100.2 through 102.5, C.R.S., include that: (1) the Commission, by January 1, 2021, be prepared to receive remittances from originating service providers from the state 9-1-1 surcharge, created by § 29-11-102.3, C.R.S.; (2) the Commission establish procedures for the distribution of those funds to the 9-1-1 governing bodies; and (3) the Commission promulgate rules concerning changes to the number of concurrent sessions for which a governing body is reimbursed. In order to comply with these statutory requirements, thereby protecting the public health, welfare, and safety by continuing required 9-1-1 service provisions statewide, we find it imperatively necessary to adopt temporary rules. |

These temporary rules set forth processes and procedures governing the continued remittances made to the Commission of state 9-1-1 surcharge funds, the continued distribution of such funds to 9-1-1 governing bodies, and applications for a 9-1-1 governing body to change the number of concurrent sessions for which it is reimbursed. These temporary rules are effective for 210 days from the effective date of this Decision, or until the Commission issues permanent rules to implement HB 20-1293. See § 40-2-108(2), C.R.S. |
