HB 18-1049

House Bill 18-1049 allows the Department of Human Services (DHS) in Colorado to continue leasing parts of the Grand Junction Regional Center to outside behavioral health providers until June 30, 2020. Both parties involved can end these leases early if they give three months' notice beforehand. This bill has been signed into law, meaning the DHS now has this authority and the agreements between them and the third-party providers are legally protected under these terms.
