SB 17-231

Senate Bill 17-231, which has been signed into law, deals with the reporting requirements of Colorado's Department of Transportation (DOT). The bill ensures that certain DOT reports continue to be made by removing their scheduled expiration dates and setting new ones according to state guidelines. This affects how often the DOT needs to provide updates to the General Assembly about its activities and projects. Since it has been signed, this bill is now law and the DOT must adhere to these reporting requirements as specified.
