WILL ADVANCE COLORADO PULL THEIR PROPERTY TAX BALLOT MEASURES? We talked yesterday about the Governor being very afraid that we would vote to lower our property taxes on November's ballot so he is scheduling a Special Session that last week of August. Why then? Because if Advance Colorado, who is running the ballot measures, is going to pull them it needs to be before September 6th, which is the deadline to pull it. I've got Advance Colorado's Kristi Burton Brown on today at 12:30 to discuss what has to happen for them to take them off the ballot, but here it is in its entirety:Key Points About the Property Tax Bill in the Special SessionBackground• Polling shows one of the most concerning issues to Colorado voters this year is property taxes.• Property taxes rose by 30%, on average, across the state last year.• Homeowners have expressed they cannot afford another spike. They want a guaranteed permanent property tax cut and cap.• Under current law, homeowners will see another property tax increase next year.•
