CO Code § 29-5-401 (2021)
2021 Colorado Code|Title 29 - Government - Local|Article 5 - Peace Officers and Firefighters|Part 4 - Voluntary Firefighter Cancer Benefits Program|§ 29-5-401. Legislative Declaration

  House Bill 07-1008, enacted in 2007, established a rebuttable presumption in the state workers' compensation system that certain types of cancer, when contracted by firefighters, are occupational diseases caused by employment as a firefighter.    Nine years of experience has shown that the rebuttable presumption established by House Bill 07-1008 has produced no demonstrable benefit to firefighters but has led to significantly greater costs to employers of firefighters.    The purpose of this part 4 is to provide supplemental income and reimbursement for out-of-pocket costs not otherwise paid for by insurance coverage to firefighters who contract covered cancers and to reduce the cost of workers' compensation insurance for employers of firefighters. This part 4 is not a replacement for workers' compensation coverage or any other kind of medical insurance.    This part 4 does not eliminate or curtail the obligation of an employer of firefighters to participate in the state workers' compensation system, nor does it eliminate or curtail the right of a firefighter to pursue benefits under the state workers' compensation system. Rather, it provides a practical alternative for firefighters to pursue in dealing with the costs and burdens of covered cancers without being forced to rely on recovering compensation under the rebuttable presumption created by House Bill 07-1008.

2021 Colorado Code|Title 29 - Government - Local|Article 11 - Emergency Telephone and Nonemergency Referral Services|Part 1 - Emergency Telephone Service|§ 29-11-100.2. Legislative Declaration

  The general assembly hereby finds and declares that dialing 911 is the most effective and familiar way the public has of seeking emergency assistance. Basic emergency service and public safety is fundamentally a government concern and the exercise of police powers for the protection and betterment of the health, safety, security, and welfare of the public. This part 1 as amended by House Bill 20-1293, enacted in 2020, is intended to provide funding mechanisms for the continued technological advancement of emergency telephone service for all users of the system.    The general assembly further finds and declares that:   In order to provide for the future of 911 technology advancement in Colorado, local funding and local control must be maintained, while at the same time, additional funding for projects, programs, and services must also be provided. It is therefore the intent of the general assembly to maintain and strengthen the existing local funding structure for emergency telephone service in the state while also creating a new funding mechanism for local expenditures that will improve the quality of the emergency telephone service statewide.    Nothing in this part 1 should be construed:   To alter the method of regulation or deregulation of providers of telecommunications service as set forth in article 15 of title 40; and    To impose a tax. The primary purpose of the charges and surcharges authorized in this part 1 is to defray the reasonable direct and indirect costs of providing emergency telephone service. The charges authorized in this part 1 do not raise revenue for the general expenses of government.           History.

  No basic emergency service provider or service supplier and no employee or agent of a basic emergency service provider or service supplier shall be liable to any person for infringement or invasion of the right of privacy of any person caused or claimed to have been caused, directly or indirectly, by any act or omission in connection with the installation, operation, maintenance, removal, presence, condition, occasion, or use of emergency service features, automatic number identification (ANI), or automatic location identification (ALI) service and the equipment associated therewith, including without limitation the identification of the telephone number, address, or name associated with the telephone used by the party or parties accessing 911 service, wireless ANI service, or wireless ALI service, and that arise out of the negligence or other wrongful act of the provider or supplier, the service user or consumer, the governing body or any of its users, agencies, or municipalities, or the employee or agent of any of said persons and entities. In addition, no basic emergency service provider or service supplier, or any employee or agent thereof shall be liable for any damages in a civil action for injuries, death, or loss to person or property incurred as a result of any act or omission of such provider, service supplier, employee, or agent in connection with developing, adopting, implementing, maintaining, enhancing, or operating an emergency telephone service unless such damage or injury was intentionally caused by or resulted from gross negligence of the provider, supplier, employee, or agent.

CO Code § 29-11-201 (2021)
2021 Colorado Code|Title 29 - Government - Local|Article 11 - Emergency Telephone and Nonemergency Referral Services|Part 2 - Human Services Referral Service|§ 29-11-201. Legislative Declaration

 The general assembly hereby finds and declares that obtaining access to appropriate community-based organizations and governmental agencies providing for human services is a critical first step for many individuals and families of Colorado to receiving the help and assistance they need. In 2000, in recognition of the need to promote effective access to human services, the federal communications commission reserved the three-digit telephone number of 2-1-1 for access to community health and human services information. The public utilities commission approved the use of a 2-1-1 number for Colorado in October of 2002. The public utilities commission assigned the 2-1-1 dial code to the Colorado 2-1-1 collaborative. The 2-1-1 human services referral service is dedicated to providing individuals and families with referral information to obtain nonemergency services such as food assistance, shelter, job assistance, and low-cost health care, for those in need. Due to the importance of the human services referral system and the need to assure that this system is enabled in all areas of the state of Colorado, the general assembly hereby finds and declares that the 2-1-1 human services referral service providers should receive protection of immunity that is similar to the protection afforded to the 9-1-1 emergency service.

  The general assembly hereby finds and declares that in order to provide for planned and orderly development within Colorado and a balancing of basic human needs of a changing population with legitimate environmental concerns, the policy of this state is to clarify and provide broad authority to local governments to plan for and regulate the use of land within their respective jurisdictions. Nothing in this article shall serve to diminish the planning functions of the state or the duties of the division of planning.    The general assembly further finds and declares that local governments will be better able to properly plan for growth and serve new residents if they are authorized to impose impact fees as a condition of approval of development permits. However, impact fees and other development charges can affect growth and development patterns outside a local government's jurisdiction, and uniform impact fee authority among local governments will encourage proper growth management.

 As used in this article, unless the context otherwise requires:    “Development permit” means any preliminary or final approval of an application for rezoning, planned unit development, conditional or special use permit, subdivision, development or site plan, or similar application for new construction; except that, solely for purposes of part 3 of this article:   Each application included in the definition of development permit constitutes a stage in the development permit approval process; and    “Development permit” is limited to an application regarding a specific project that includes new water use in an amount more than that used by fifty single-family equivalents, or fewer as determined by the local government. (1.3) “Fire and emergency services provider” means a fire protection district organized under article 1 of title 32, C.R.S., or a fire authority established pursuant to section 29-1-203.5 .

ANNOTATION   The term “new water use” as used in subsection (1)(b) includes water put to a different purpose. The phrase refers to the use of additional quantities of water as well as the use of a similar quantity of water for a different purpose. Thus, a “development permit” as referenced in § 29-20-303 (1) includes approval of an application for a specific project where either (1) an additional use of water is required in the threshold amount set forth in subsection (1)(b), or (2) an amount of water exceeding the threshold set forth in subsection (1)(b) is to be used for a different purpose. Hajek v. Bd. of County Comm'rs for Boulder, 2020 COA 28 , 461 P.3d 665.   Approval of landowner's application for site plan review was within the meaning of subsection (1)(b) of this section and thus triggered § 29-20-303 (1) . The proposed operation required building new structures. Because the proposed structures were intended to facilitate the operation, which included water use, building the new structures necessarily implicated any “new water use” associated with the operation.
