Colorado Revised Statutes Title 36. Natural Resources General § 36-1-112.5. Fiscal impact study

Prior to the lease, sale, or exchange of any lands for commercial, residential, or industrial development, the state board of land commissioners shall determine that the income from the proposed lease, sale, or exchange can reasonably be anticipated to exceed the fiscal impact of such development on local school districts and state funding of education from increased school enrollment associated with such development. When determining the fiscal impact of the proposed lease, sale, or exchange of any land that is a part of any mining operation, the state board of land commissioners shall consider the fiscal and other benefits to the local school districts from the development of the entire operation.
