Board approves amended IGA creating multi-jurisdictional regional housing authority

Lake County Board of County Commissioners · August 12, 2026

Summary

The commissioners approved an amended and restated intergovernmental agreement establishing the Leadville and Lake County Regional Housing Authority as a separate multi‑jurisdictional authority with a seven-member board and payroll responsibilities transitioning to the authority Jan. 1, 2027.

The Lake County Board of County Commissioners approved an amended and restated intergovernmental agreement (IGA) to formalize the Leadville and Lake County Regional Housing Authority as a separate multi‑jurisdictional entity.

County Manager Candace Bridal said the 2021 IGA has been updated to reflect that the authority will be an independent employer with payroll processing and tax responsibilities transferring to the authority effective Jan. 1, 2027. The agreement establishes a seven-member board with two county appointees, two city appointees and three at-large members. Bridal said the change consolidates and replaces earlier director and authority IGAs and updates obligations for services provided by the authority.

Matt Hobbs added that the city’s attorney submitted a late correction that changes a lodging-tax calculation from 62% to 61% in section 5.5(b) but does not change the dollars distributed; he described it as a recalculation that leaves funding levels intact. The board moved, seconded and voted to approve the amended agreement.
