Amendment 74 has been written and is being funded by the oil and gas industry to amend the Colorado Constitution and threaten the ability of state and local governments to provide basic governmental services. Amendment 74 declares that any state or local government law or regulation that "reduces" the "fair market value" of a private parcel is subject to "just compensation."

Proposition 110 could be expected to raise $767 million in its first year and allow for the bonding of $6 billion for state transportation projects. Eagle County and its communities are expected to receive over $58.5 million in state transportation funding for local projects over the next 20 years from this revenue source, which will help bring an estimated $293 million in additional transportation funding to improve Eagle County mobility. | | | | | | | | | | | | | 4.7. | Resolution No. 42, Series of 2018, A Resolution Supporting Eagle County, Colorado Ballot Question Authorizing without Raising Taxes the Extension of the Exisiting 1.5 Mill Levy Related to Eagle County Open Space Program from Fifteen Years from Its Current Expiration | 5 min. | | | | | | Presenter(s): Matt Mire, Town Attorney | | | | | | | Action Requested of Council: Approve or deny Resolution No. 42, Series of 2018 | | | | | | | Background: Eagle County submitted and had approved by the electors of Eagle County on November 5, 2002, a question to increase property taxes by one and one-half (1.5) mills for the purpose of acquiring, maintaining, or permanently preserving open space in Eagle County (the "Open Space Mill Levy").
