Colorado Revised Statutes Title 32. Special Districts § 32-15-110.5. Admissions tax imposed--collection--discontinuance

(1)(a) Upon the approval of the registered electors pursuant to the provisions of section 32-15-107, the board shall have the power to levy an admissions tax upon the adoption of a resolution for a period not to extend beyond January 1, 2012, upon every purchase of an admission to a new stadium constructed by the district pursuant to this article. The amount of the tax shall not exceed ten percent of the price of each admission. The board shall have the authority to determine whether to levy an admissions tax pursuant to this section, and nothing in this article shall be construed to require the district to levy such a tax.

(b) Every vendor making a sale to a purchaser that is taxable under the provisions of this section is required at the time of making such sale to collect the tax imposed by this section from the purchaser. The tax to be collected as provided in this section shall be conspicuously, indelibly, and separately stated and charged from the sales price on the ticket or card evidencing the sale and shown separately from the sales price on any record made thereof at the time of the sale or at the time when evidence of the sale is first issued or employed by the vendor; except that, when added, such tax shall constitute a part of such purchase or charge and shall be a debt from the purchaser to the vendor until paid and shall be recoverable at law in the same manner as other debts. The tax shall be paid by the purchaser to the vendor who, as trustee for and on account of the district, shall be liable to the district for the collection and return thereof.

(c) The district may prescribe forms and procedures in conformity with this section for the adding of the admissions tax to the purchase price of an admission, for the making of returns, for the ascertainment, assessment, and collection of the tax imposed pursuant to this section, and for the proper administration and enforcement thereof.
