Executive Summary with Rationale and Impact:
Detailed description of the item and why we are doing it. This can be a separate attachment.
The Gateway Village General Improvement District (the “District") was created by Ordinance No. 551, Series 1994, and said Ordinance recognized the Council of the City and County of Denver as the Ex Officio Board of Directors of the District (the "Board of Directors"), pursuant to C.R.S. § 31-25-609, C.R.S. The District is in the northeastern section of the City north of the I-70 and Chambers intersection. The District consists of 243 acres on the eastern border of Montbello. The District is completely developed and primarily consists of residential property with retail and commercial properties along the areas that border Chambers Road. The District was created to build and maintain streets, landscaping and parks, except for items turned over to the City. The eligible electors of the District have approved ballot issues authorizing the collection, retention and spending of the property tax and other revenues in the amounts specified in an annual authorized budget.
Ordinance No. 551, Series 1994 and further amended by Ordinance No. 1041, Series 2016 established a District Advisory Board (the "Advisory Board"), comprised of three registered electors of the District, the City’s Manager of Public Works (or designee), and the City Council person for the District. The Advisory Board, subject to the approval of the Board of Directors, should conduct and manage all affairs of the District as the authorized agent of the Board of Directors, including its financial and legal affairs. By Resolution of the District, the Board of Directors directed the Advisory Board to prepare, deliver and recommend to the Board of Directors, at least once a year, a proposed Work Plan and Budget, as well as submit a corresponding mill levy for certification. Pursuant to this directive, the Advisory Board has prepared, reviewed and desires to recommend to the Board of Directors for its approval a District Work Plan, Budget and mill levy for the year 2021. These matters are to be considered by Council sitting as the ex officio Board of Directors of the District at a public hearing.
District Financial Structure: The 2021 budget contemplates overall expenditures and transfers of $1,259,016 with revenues of $687,884. Revenues will be raised by a 20.000 mill rate assessed on property (real and personal) in the District.
