Colorado Revised Statutes Title 24. Government State § 24-1-135. Effect of congressional redistricting on boards and commissions--definition

(a) Any member of a board who was appointed or elected to the office as a resident of a designated congressional district pursuant to any section of the state constitution or any statutory section creating the board and who no longer resides in the congressional district solely because of a change made to the boundaries of the district pursuant to sections 44 to 44.6 of article V of the state constitution is eligible to hold office for the remainder of the term to which the member was elected or appointed, notwithstanding the nonresidency of the member.

(b) When a board increases in size or changes in composition due to the addition of a congressional district following a federal decennial census, an appointing authority responsible for making appointments of members from the state's congressional districts shall appoint a member to represent the new district as soon as practicable in the year following the approval of the new congressional district's boundaries pursuant to sections 44 to 44.6 of article V of the state constitution. The newly appointed member serves a full term as set forth in the state constitution or statute for a member of the board; except that the appointing authority may appoint the member for a shorter term if necessary to preserve any required staggering of the terms of the members of the board.
