The TABOR Committee is celebrating the decision by the Colorado Special Districts Association to oppose Proposition HH!

Special districts are local governments that provide services such as fire protection and rescue, water, sanitation, hospitals and libraries.  The Association represents about 2,600 of the 3,300 plus districts throughout the state.

The Association developed a template for its members to urge a No vote on the November 7^th ballot.  The template observes that “… Proposition HH will increase the State’s TABOR spending limit, allowing the State to spend billions of dollars more than it did before,” and continues with the alarming note that, if HH passes, then Special Districts will only receive “reimbursements (that) are a small percentage of the billions of dollars more that the State will retain.”

 The Association’s statement ends with a clarion call to reject Proposition HH by concluding that “Proposition HH diminishes the ability of (a special district) to provide the vital services, facilities, and infrastructure that the public needs, expects, and demands.  Vote NO on Proposition HH at the statewide election on November 7, 2023.”
