Special District Transparency Notice 2010 Senate bill 09-087
November 16, 2009

Senate Bill 09-087 (“SB09-087”) places new legal requirements on all special districts organized or acting pursuant to the provisions of article 1 of title 32, Colorado Revised Statutes. Districts formed pursuant to other statutory authority (for example, water conservancy districts, library and cemetery districts, and business/local improvement districts) are not subject to SB09-087.

SB09-087 amends the Special District Act to specify that notice for every regular and special meeting of the board be posted at least a full 72 hours prior to the meeting.

Director District elections are held every two years.

Who can be a candidate ?
Candidates must live within the Director District they will represent. See the Director District map to see which Director District you live in. A Call for Nomination notice is published in the Longmont Daily Times Call no more than 90 days and not less than 75 days prior to an election.

Who can vote ?
Any registered voter (property owner or renter) residing or owning property anywhere in the Left Hand Water District can vote for one director for each of the director districts. You can vote for any director, even if your director is not up for election, and all voters in the District can vote for candidates for all of the open positions.

How do I vote in this election ?
For the convenience of its electors, the District holds elections via polling place (s) on election day or Mail-In Voter Ballots (formerly Absentee Ballots). The Mountain View Niwot Fire Station is generally the District’s designated polling place. Mail-In Voter Ballots are available by contacting the Designated Election Official at 303-530-4200, or you can download the application. However, you must hand deliver, fax or mail your completed Mail-In Voter Ballot application to the Designated Election Official. We cannot accept them via email.

How do I know when there is going to be an election ?
Our Notice of Election is published in the Longmont Daily Times Call newspaper in April, prior to an election. A Notice of Election is posted at the District office, Niwot Post Office and Mountain View Fire Station.
