| Purpose/Objective of Rule |
Section 26-2-304, C.R.S. became effective in May, 2019. The statute allows the Food Assistance program to require any party to a Food Assistance hearing to file a notice of intent to file exceptions, in writing, within five days after service of the initial decision upon the party, or otherwise forgo the ability to file exceptions. Food Assistance needs incorporate this language into rule to demonstrate compliance with federal fair hearings timeliness to mitigate fiscal sanctions that will be imposed if the Food Assistance program cannot demonstrate this compliance by October 31, 2019. It is imperatively necessary for these changes to rule to be effective immediately as if the rule were to run through the regular, non-emergency process, the state would likely be subject to significant fiscal sanctions which would be contrary to the public interest. |
