Section 32-10-102 - Legislative declaration(1) The general assembly determines, finds, and declares that: (a) Certain areas in this state possess natural characteristics which make them attractive for the building of seasonal homes and tourist facilities. There is an increasing need to build public facilities in such areas in order to accommodate the needs of the seasonal population. Many of these areas contain large federal land holdings which attract seasonal users. The increasing public use in such areas is leading to serious water quality problems, a factor of concern to all the citizens of this state. Such an area is the three lakes area of Grand county, surrounding Grand lake, Shadow Mountain lake, and lake Granby. The general assembly thus declares that the creation of this district promotes the health, comfort, convenience, safety, and welfare of all the people of the state and visitors to the state, and will be of special benefit to the inhabitants of the district and the property therein.(b) All property to be acquired by the district under this article shall be owned, operated, administered, and maintained for and on behalf of all of the people of the district;(c) The provision in this article for the purposes, powers, duties, privileges, immunities, rights, liabilities, and disabilities concerning the district will serve a public use;(d) The district created by this article is a body corporate and politic, a political subdivision of the state, and a municipal corporation with the powers provided in this article;(e) Any notice provided for in this article for any purpose is reasonably calculated to inform each person who has a legally protected interest which may be directly and adversely affected by any proceedings under this article;(f) The necessity for this article results from the population, growth, and development in the area included by this article and from the resultant pollution of Grand lake, Shadow Mountain lake, and lake Granby;(g) A general law cannot be made applicable to the district, and to properties, powers, duties, privileges, immunities, rights, liabilities, and disabilities pertaining thereto as provided in this article, because of the number of atypical factors and special conditions concerning them;(h) The powers, privileges, and rights granted in this article and the duties, immunities, liabilities, and disabilities provided in this article comply in all respects with any requirement or limitation imposed by any constitutional provision;(i) For the accomplishment of the purposes provided in this section, the provisions of this article shall be broadly construed.L. 71: p. 1002, § 1.
