March General Membership Meeting
Do you know if you live in a special district? Do you know how to find out if you do? And, if you do
live in and pay property taxes to a special district, here are more questions: Do you know who's in charge? Do you know how they set their tax rates? And do you vote in the special district elections to have a voice in the decisions made?
The League of Women Voters of Arapahoe and Douglas Counties will have a combined membership meeting on Tuesday evening, March 24 featuring Special Districts as the topic. Guest speaker Ann Terry, Executive Director for the Special District Association of Colorado, will explain how special districts operate, who's in charge, their administrative functions, and the features that set them apart from local government.
