Public Notification in Compliance with §24-4-103.3(2) C.R.S. and Executive Order D 2012-002
October 21, 2015
The Division of Housing (DOH) as part of the Department of Local Affairs (DOLA) conducts continuous review of all of its rules to assess the continuing need for, appropriateness and cost effectiveness of its rules to determine if they should be continued in their current form, modified or repealed. The DOH considers:
- Whether each rule is necessary,
- Whether each rule overlaps or duplicates other rules of the DOH or other federal, state or local government rules,
- Whether each rule is written in plain language and is easy to understand,
- Whether each rule has achieved the desired intent and whether more or less regulation is necessary,
- Whether each rule can be amended to give more flexibility, reduce regulatory burdens, or reduce unnecessary paperwork or steps while maintaining its benefits,
- Whether each rule is implemented in an efficient and effective manner,
- Whether a cost-benefit analysis was required to be performed and, if so, whether a cost-benefit analysis was performed by the DPT for each rule pursuant to §24-1-103(2.5) C.R.S., and
- Whether each rule is adequate for the protection of the safety, health and welfare of the state or its residents.
The DOH accepts written input concerning its rules at any time. Written input may be provided at the following street address:
