SB 18-034

Senate Bill 18-034 moves certain gambling-related laws from Title 12 of Colorado's statutes, which deals with professions and occupations, to a new Title 44. This new title will be dedicated solely to regulations managed by the Department of Revenue that oversee various activities including limited gaming and tribal-state gaming agreements. The bill has been signed into law, meaning these changes have now taken effect and gambling laws are no longer part of Title 12 but are instead found in the newly created Title 44.

Official Summary

Committee on Legal Services. Current law directs the office of legislative legal services to study the organizational recodification of title 12 of the Colorado Revised Statutes, which relates to professions and occupations. One recommendation of the study is to relocate laws located in title 12 that are administered by the department of revenue to a new title 44, which will consist solely of laws administered by the department of revenue that regulate a variety of activities. To implement this recommendation, section 1 of the bill creates title 44 and section 2 relocates laws related to the regulation of limited gaming from title 12 to the new title. Section 3 relocates laws related to the tribal-state gaming compact from title 12 to the new title. Section 4 repeals the relocated laws from their current location. Sections 5 through 45 make conforming amendments necessitated by the relocation of the laws.(Note: This summary applies to the reengrossed version of this bill as introduced in the second house.) , Read More
