CO Code § 29-11.8-115 (2021)
2021 Colorado Code|Title 29 - Government - Local|Article 11.8 - Escort Services|§ 29-11.8-115. Local Government Regulation

 This article 11.8 is intended to provide minimum standards for the licensing of escort bureaus, escorts, and escort bureau runners. Nothing in this article 11.8 shall prohibit a local government from enacting an ordinance providing more stringent standards for such licensing, but such ordinance shall meet the minimum standards established by this article 11.8. To the extent that this article 11.8 directs implementation by local governments, all such implementing actions may be accomplished by resolution or by ordinance; and such implementing action shall be required upon a request to the local governing body for an application for a license to operate within the jurisdiction of the local governing body. Such a request shall not be acted upon until the implementing action by resolution or ordinance has been accomplished.   History.

For note, “Colorado Interest Law”, see 34 Dicta 398 (1957).   Annotator's note. Since § 29-11.9-102 is similar to former § 139-58-1, C.R.S. 1963, and laws antecedent to that section, relevant cases construing those provisions have been included in the annotations to this section.   Cities and towns administer scheme regulating pawnbrokers. The general assembly has provided a comprehensive scheme for the regulation of pawnbrokers to be administered through its cities and towns. Lakewood Pawnbrokers, Inc. v. City of Lakewood, 183 Colo. 370 , 517 P.2d 834 (1973).   Municipality may exact additional requirements. The mere fact that the state, in the exercise of the police power, has made certain regulations does not, however, prohibit a municipality from exacting additional requirements. Provident Loan Soc'y v. City & County of Denver, 64 Colo. 400 , 172 P. 10 (1918).   So long as there is no conflict between state and municipality requirements, and the requirements of the municipality bylaws are not in themselves pernicious, as being unreasonable or discriminatory, both will stand. Provident Loan Soc'y v. City & County of Denver, 64 Colo. 400 , 172 P. 10 (1918).   An ordinance of a city council regulating the licensing of pawnbrokers to be valid must be subordinate to and in harmony with the provisions of this article. Solomon v. City of Denver, 12 Colo.

  If the board, after receiving the analysis and recommendations pursuant to section 29-12.5-102, finds that the amount of money the political subdivision would spend on such energy saving measures is not likely to exceed the amount of money it would save in energy costs over the term of the contract, the board may:   Enter into an energy cost-savings contract with any architect, professional engineer, or other person experienced in the design and implementation of energy saving measures for buildings or other facilities owned or rented by the political subdivision, with any person or entity experienced in the calculation and analysis of vehicle fleet operational and fuel cost savings, or with the entity or person who performed the energy analysis and provided recommendations pursuant to section 29-12.5-102; or    Otherwise incur indebtedness to finance energy saving measures.         Except as provided in paragraph (b) of this subsection (2):   No contract entered into or indebtedness incurred pursuant to this section shall constitute or give rise to an indebtedness within the meaning of any constitutional, statutory, or home rule debt limitation; and    Any contract may be entered into and indebtedness incurred without approval of the qualified electors of the political subdivision.

In the event that a local government has no annual tax levy, it may appropriate from any unexpended balance in the general fund such amounts as the governing body shall deem necessary for the purposes and uses of the insurance reserve fund. A school district shall establish and maintain an insurance reserve fund in accordance with the provisions of section 22-45-103 (1)(e), C.R.S., using moneys allocated thereto pursuant to the provisions of section 22-54-105 (2), C.R.S.

  The certificate of authority issued to a unit of local government under this article may be revoked or suspended by the commissioner of insurance for any of the following reasons:   Insolvency or impairment;    Refusal or failure to submit an annual report as required by section 29-13-102 (4);    Failure to comply with the provisions of its own ordinances, resolutions, contracts, or other conditions relating to the self-insurance pool;    Failure to submit to examination or any legal obligation relative thereto;    Refusal to pay the cost of examination as required by section 29-13-102 (3);    Use of methods which, although not otherwise specifically proscribed by law, nevertheless render the operation of the self-insurance pool hazardous, or its condition unsound, to the public;    Failure to otherwise comply with the law of this state, if such failure renders the operation of the self-insurance pool hazardous to the public.       If the commissioner of insurance finds upon examination, hearing, or other evidence that any unit of local government has committed any of the acts specified in subsection (1) of this section or any act otherwise prohibited in this article, the commissioner may suspend or revoke such certificate of authority if he deems it in the best interest of the public. Notice of any revocation shall be published in one or more daily newspapers in Denver which have a general state circulation.
