Section 24-1.7-103 - Consolidation of local boards - process - requirements(1) The general assembly hereby finds that there are many advisory types of boards in the human services delivery system that have similar functions and purposes and have members with similar qualifications and expertise. The general assembly finds that greater efficiency and flexibility would be achieved by allowing counties, judicial districts, and other service areas to combine and consolidate some or all of these boards into one board that serves as a broad-based local planning group and carries out all of the functions and responsibilities of the previous boards through a consolidated board.(2) Any combination of the following boards or groups may be consolidated into a single advisory board: (a) Placement alternatives commissions, created pursuant to section 19-1-116(2)(a), C.R.S.;(b) Juvenile community review boards, as defined in section 19-2.5-102 and described in section 19-2.5-1402;(c) Local juvenile services planning committees, created pursuant to section 19-2.5-302;(d) Child protection teams, if such a team is created pursuant to section 19-3-308(6)(a);(e) Family preservation commissions, established pursuant to section 26-5.5-106, C.R.S.;(f) A local health and human services advisory board, created pursuant to section 24-1.7-102.(3) The consolidation of, and appointments to, local boards or groups that have different appointing authorities set in statute, are subject to the agreement of each appointing authority. Each of the separate functions and responsibilities of each board or group as specified in statute must continue to be met by the consolidated board.Amended by 2021 Ch. 136,§105, eff. 10/1/2021.Amended by 2017 Ch. 107,§5, eff. 8/9/2017.L. 97: Entire article R&RE, p. 1182, § 1, effective July 1.
