Hearings & Proposed Rulemaking
- Rulemaking Hearing by the Colorado Auto Theft Prevention Authority - Oct. 15 (click for more info)
-
The Colorado Auto Theft Prevention Authority (CATPA) will hold a virtual rulemaking hearing regarding proposed changes to the CATPA administrative rules (8 CCR 1507-50) and invites public comment from our many stakeholders. These rules provide guidance and direction to the CATPA Board in determining the best value for grants to combat automobile theft and related crimes in Colorado.These rules give CATPA the ability to fund collaborative, multi-jurisdictional and innovative automobile theft reduction efforts with education, prevention, training, enforcement and prosecution.
In response to comments received from the CATPA Board and to routine department rule review assessing the document formatting, clarity, and the continued viability, applicability, and effectiveness of the rules, CATPA is proposing the following amendments: updates to the definitions applicable to these rules; refine references to repeatedly referenced entities and documents; clarify program review and reporting procedures; address documentation of reference materials incorporated consistent with §24-4-103 (12.5), CRS, and revise document formatting throughout. The changes being proposed improve clarity of these rules, are limited in their scope, and do not affect the present substantive content or expressed interpretation of these rules.
Virtual Hearing: 2 p.m., Thursday, Oct. 15, 2020

About CDPS Rulemaking and Stakeholder Engagement
Virtually all state government agencies issue rules or regulations of some kind. Most rules and regulations exist at the direction of the state legislature in order to regulate certain business and personal activities. Rules and regulations exist because it's easier to update them, eliminate them, or alter them administratively than it is to pass new legislation as conditions change.
