Colorado Revised Statutes Title 43. Transportation § 43-1-1503. Department transfer facilities--provision of retail and commercial goods and services

(1) Notwithstanding the provisions of section 43-3-101, the executive director shall have the authority to negotiate and enter into agreements with any person or public entity for the provision of retail and commercial goods and services to the public at any transfer facility that is owned, leased, or operated by the department.

(2) Any person or public entity obtaining the use of any portion of a transfer facility that is owned, leased, or operated by the department for the provision of retail or commercial goods or services shall enter into an agreement with the department that is consistent with section 43-1-1204. Such agreement may provide that private contributions to the department include the provision of real property, services, or capital improvements to facilities used in transit services.

(3) Any use of a transfer facility that is owned, leased, or operated by the department for the provision of retail or commercial goods or services shall not be implemented if the use would reduce transit services or the availability of adequate parking for the public or would result in a competitive disadvantage to a private business reasonably near a transfer facility engaging in the sale of similar goods and services. The provision of retail and commercial goods and services at transfer facilities that are owned, leased, or operated by the department shall be designed to offer convenience to transit customers and shall not be conducted in a manner that encourages automobile traffic from nontransit users.

(4) Any development of any portion of a transfer facility owned, leased, or operated by the department and made available by the department for the provision of retail or commercial goods or services shall be subject to all applicable laws, ordinances, and regulations of any municipality, county, or city and county in which the transfer facility is located, including planning and zoning regulations.
