(1)
When, pursuant to the provisions of this part 6, an election of the registered electors of a city, city and county, authority, housing authority, or county housing authority is required in order to authorize any proposed act, said election may be held either concurrently with any general election held under the laws of the state of Colorado throughout the area of the city, city and county, authority, housing authority, or county housing authority calling the election or at a special election called for such purpose. The council, board of commissioners, or other governing body of the city, city and county, authority, housing authority, or county housing authority shall call such election by resolution, which resolution shall:
(a)
Specify the objects and purposes of the election, including specifically the particular act which is proposed and which requires the approval of the registered electors;
(b)
Specify the day and hours of such election, which day and hours may be the same as those of any concurrent general election;
(c)
Provide for the appointment and compensation of judges of election, and if the election is to be held concurrently with a general election, the resolution shall recite that the judges of the concurrent general election shall serve as the judges for the election held in accordance with this part 6 and provide for the additional compensation, if any, which such persons are to receive as judges of the election held in accordance with this part 6;
(d)
Designate the precincts and polling places for such election. All precincts and polling places for a concurrent general election which are located within the boundaries of the city, city and county, authority, housing authority, or county housing authority calling the election under this part 6 shall likewise be designated as the precincts and polling places of the election under this part 6. In the event that a portion of any precinct for the concurrent general election extends beyond the boundaries of the city, city and county, authority, housing authority, or county housing authority calling the election under this part 6, and in the event that the polling place for such precinct is beyond such boundaries, such polling place may nevertheless be designated as a polling place for the election under this part 6. No judge of the concurrent general election, serving at a polling place so designated as a polling place for the election under this part 6, shall be disqualified from also serving as a judge of this election by reason of the fact that he or she resides in the portion of the precinct which is beyond the boundaries of the city, city and county, authority, housing authority, or county housing authority calling the election.
(e)
Set forth the question to be submitted to the registered electors and the form of the ballot. The question to be submitted shall be worded in a clear and concise manner.
(f)
Specify the estimated cost of the proposed construction or acquisition;
(g)
Set forth the location of the proposed project, housing project, addition, or improvement.
