Who is eligible to vote in a special district election?

The vast majority of eligible electors will be those who are registered to vote in Colorado and:

• A resident of the special district, regardless of whether they own property or
• An owner of real or personal taxable property within the special district, or their spouse or civil union partner, who owns the property in their (natural person) name. Ownership really only matters if the person is not a resident of the district. Note: a partnership, corporation or trust cannot register to vote, is not a “person” in the context of voter registration and Title 32-1 eligibility, and therefore a non-resident owning property through such a legal entity is not an eligible elector. Further, the law does not specify a manner in which non-resident owners of these types may qualify as electors in a Title 32-1 election it does, however, for Business Improvement and Conservation Districts. Miles v. West Montrose Sanitation District, 2020CV30046.

Other ways of qualifying as an eligible elector:

• Real estate developers or business owners: a person who is obligated to pay taxes under a contract to purchase taxable property situated within the boundaries of the special district or the area to be included within the special district shall be considered an owner.
• Mobile homeowner: for all elections and petitions that require ownership of real property or land, a mobile home or a manufactured home shall be deemed sufficient to qualify as ownership of real property or land for the purposes of voting rights and petitions.

C.R.S. § 32-1-103(5)
