House Bill 17-1367 required that a state, local, or municipal agency only employ or use the results of marijuana tests if the tests were conducted by an analytical laboratory that was both certified by the state marijuana enforcement division (MED) and accredited pursuant to the International Organization for Standardization/International Electrotechnical Commission standard (international standard). The requirement that an analytical laboratory be both certified by the MED and accredited pursuant to the international standard was an inadvertent error. The intent was that an analytical laboratory could either be certified by the MED or accredited pursuant to the international standard. The bill changes the 'and' to an 'or' in order to effectuate the original intent. (Note: This summary applies to the reengrossed version of this bill as introduced in the second house.) , Read More

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 sale of motor vehicles and powersports vehicles from article 6 of title 12 to article 20 of title 44. Section 3 relocates part 4 of article 6 of title 12 related to event data recorders to part 24 of article 4 of title 42. Section 4 repeals the article where these laws were previously codified.(Note: This summary applies to the reengrossed version of this bill as introduced in the second house.) , Read More
Under current law, the state board of health (board) is authorized to establish a schedule of fees for health facilities, including assisted living residences, which fees must be sufficient to meet the department of public health and environment's direct and indirect costs in regulating health facilities. With regard to most department-regulated health facilities, the board cannot increase fees by more than the inflation rate. However, the inflation rate limitation does not apply to the fees assessed by the department against assisted living residences. Starting August 1, 2019, the bill imposes the inflation rate limitation on fees assessed against assisted living residences.
