CTIO legislative update: staff tracking MMOF bills, wildlife crossings; no new 'busting' bill pursued this session
Loading...
Summary
CTIO legislative staff told the board they are tracking multimodal options fund bills (referenced as '13 98' and '13 99'), a wildlife crossings funding bill, a CDOT statutory cleanup bill, and other transit/speed‑camera conversations; CTIO is not pursuing new legislation on 'busting' this session and will handle related matters administratively.
Legislative staff Emily briefed the CTIO board on April 15 about the status of transportation‑related bills and agency priorities as both chambers consider budget and policy measures.
Emily said the long bill is under review and called out two companion bills tied to the multimodal options fund (transcript references '13 98' and '13 99') that staff are monitoring closely. She said CDOT’s statutory cleanup bill is expected to be scheduled for a senate hearing soon, and a separate transportation safety modifications bill already has passed both chambers. Emily also flagged a wildlife crossings bill that, if enacted, would direct new funding to the bridge and tunnel enterprise for wildlife crossing infrastructure and is now moving between chambers.
On contentious topics, Emily said there are continued conversations about speed cameras and several transit bills, but CTIO is not pursuing separate legislation on 'busting' this session; instead, staff plan to continue administrative work and explore actions that can be taken within existing authorities.
Board members thanked Emily for the update and had no further questions at the time.
