Infrastructure Bond Projects went to November 6, 2007 Ballot
The following bills detail the infrastructure bond questions that went before the voters at the November 6, 2007 municipal election. The Denver City Council referred eight infrastructure bond questions to follow a mill levy question that would establish a new dedicated property increase of 2.5 mills. Voters saw the ballot questions in the following order: Health and Human Services Facilities, Libraries, Transportation and Public Works, Park System Facilities, Public Office Facilities, Cultural Facilities deferred maintenance, Cultural Facilities new construction, and Public Safety facilities.
A companion bill to the infrastructure bond questions, Council Bill 422, Series of 2007, was also passed by Denver City Council on August 13. Since the voters approved all of the proposed measures, this ordinance specifies the projects expenditures and level of funding to be undertaken with the proceeds from the general obligation bonds.
For additional information, please contact the City Council Office at 720-865-9534.
