8 CCR 1209-1
Statement of Basis and Purpose
Adopted April 12, 2017 - Effective May 30, 2017
Statutory Authority
Authority for this rule is given to the Colorado Agricultural Value-Added Development Board in § 35-75-203(3), C.R.S.
Purpose
After review of this rule the Value-Added Development Board determined that its current rule was unnecessary where the provisions adopted are merely administrative in nature, not setting forth any procedure or practice requirements of any agency. Additionally, the Board considered that its best method of setting forth a reasonable and uniform method of reimbursing its members for actual and necessary travel expenses would be to tie that reimbursement method to the method the Colorado Department of Agriculture uses to pay to its other boards and commissions whose members incur necessary and actual expenses for travel and for other actual expenses incurred in the performance of their official duties. As such, the Board determined to repeal this rule and to adopt by board vote an administrative policy to fall into line with the Department of Agriculture's methods of reimbursement for such expenses for its other boards and commissions.
