RESOLUTION 2022 - 98

A RESOLUTION OF THE BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS OF ARCHULETA COUNTY TO APPROVE AND AUTHORIZE A BALLOT QUESTION FOR THE NOVEMBER 2022 GENERAL ELECTION FOR THE PURPOSE OF PROPOSING AN INCREASE OF 1.5% TO THE EXISTING COUNTYWIDE SALES TAX RATE TO ADDRESS CRITICAL AND URGENT NEEDS OF ARCHULETA COUNTY AS MORE PARTICULARLY DESCRIBED HEREIN, THE SHARING OF REVENUES WITH THE TOWN OF PAGOSA SPRINGS, AND A VOTER-APPROVED REVENUE CHANGE

WHEREAS, Archuleta County (the “County”) is a duly organized county political subdivision of the State of Colorado under the Constitution and laws of the State of Colorado pursuant to C.R.S. §30-5-112; and,

WHEREAS, Article 2, Title 29 of the Colorado Revised Statutes, as amended, authorizes the County to levy an increase in the countywide sales tax rate upon approval of the majority of qualified registered electors of the County voting on such proposal at an election conducted and held according to Colorado law; and,

WHEREAS, on April 7, 1988, the Archuleta County Board of County Commissioners (the “Board”) adopted Resolution 1988-34 authorizing a ballot question to impose a countywide sales tax rate of four percent (4%), which rate was approved by a majority of the qualified registered electors voting on such proposal at a special election conducted and held according to Colorado law on May 10, 1988; and,

WHEREAS, there has been no increase in the countywide sales tax rate since the election in May 1988, more than thirty years ago; and,

WHEREAS, during that same time frame, the population of the County has grown from around 5,000 in 1988 to just under 14,000 in 2022, which equates to a 180% increase; and,

WHEREAS, also during that same time frame, the cost of maintaining the roads in the County, which includes 327 miles of road, of which 40 miles are paved or chip- sealed, has increased significantly; and,

WHEREAS, in addition, the growth of tourism visits to the County has increased significantly from 1988 to 2022; and,

WHEREAS, furthermore, the cost of providing services to the citizens of the

County has increased significantly over the same period of time; and,

WHEREAS, the Board has determined that the maintenance, repair and safety of roads, bridges and other infrastructure in the County are priorities for the residents of the

County, and that it is in the public interest to provide for the maintenance, repair and safety of those roads, bridges and other infrastructure; and,

WHEREAS, the growth of population in and tourism to Archuleta County has significantly impacted County roads, bridges and other infrastructure, to a point where the County no longer has the financial resources to maintain such roads, bridges and other infrastructure at an acceptable level; and,

WHEREAS, the County is in need of maintaining current capital projects and improvements and constructing future capital projects and improvements, including but not limited to County facilities and the County landfill, all to meet the growing population of Archuleta County; and,

WHEREAS, the County is in need of additional resources to provide current services to the growing population of Archuleta County in an extremely tight labor market so as to retain its current employees as well as to attract new talent, and to provide for additional services required by state law; and,

WHEREAS, the Board believes it is important to find a sustainable funding source to address the safety, functionality and longevity of County roads, bridges and other infrastructure, to maintain and construct current and future County capital projects and improvements, and to sustain and expand services to the citizens of Archuleta County; and,

WHEREAS, the Board finds that the imposition of a sales tax increase of one and a half percent (1.5%) of taxable transactions (which represents a 1 and ½ cent increase on each one dollar purchase) will ensure that Archuleta County has the funding it needs to provide suitable roads, bridges and other infrastructure, as well as address other significant needs of the County and its citizens as stated herein; and,

WHEREAS, the Board finds that the imposition of a sales tax increase of one and a half percent (1.5%) of taxable transactions will promote the health, safety and welfare of the citizens of the County; and,

WHEREAS, pursuant to Article X, Section 20 of the Colorado Constitution, the increase of any tax requires voter approval, which may be referred to an election held on the first Tuesday of November of even-numbered years; and

WHEREAS, the Board desires to refer to the registered electors of the County a proposal for an increase to the countywide sales tax for the purposes set forth herein at the next election on November 8, 2022, and such election date is not less than 30 and is within the next succeeding 120 days after the adoption of this Resolution; and

WHEREAS, pursuant to C.R.S. §1-5-203(3), the Board must certify ballot contents to the Archuleta County Clerk and Recorder for said November 8, 2022, election no later than September 9, 2022.

a. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 2 hereof, so long as there are outstanding financial obligations of the County which are secured in whole or in part by all or any portion of said sales tax, said taxes shall not be repealed, nor shall the application of the proceeds from said taxes be changed, if such repeal or change would adversely affect the security for said financial obligations.

3. Statutory Definitions Incorporated/Specific Definition of Countywide. The definitions of the words contained herein shall be as set forth in C.R.S. §§ 39-26-102, 39-26-201 and 39-26-701, which definitions are incorporated by reference into this Resolution as if fully set forth herein.

SPECIFIC PROVISIONS RELATING TO 

THE SALES TAX

4. Personal Property and Services Taxed. Upon the approval of a majority of the eligible electors in the November 2022 General Election, there shall be enacted and, therefore, levied and imposed, and there shall be collected and paid, an increase in the existing countywide sales tax rate of one and a half percent (1.5%) on the gross receipts upon the sale of tangible personal property at retail and the furnishing of 

certain services as provided in C.R.S. § 29-2-105(1)(d), as amended, upon all taxable transactions in the County.
