Metropolitan District General Explanation

The EastPark70 Metropolitan District is a Title 32 Special District that has been established for the purpose of financing and installing street, water, sanitation, parks and recreation, mosquito control, transportation, and safety protection improvements of the District; and all other improvements or services permitted by Article 1, Title 32, C.R.S. (collectively, the “Public Improvements and Services”), except as specifically limited by the Service Plan for the District approved by the City Council of the City of Aurora on August 30, 2004, as it may be amended from time to time (the “Service Plan”).

The Public Improvements and Services are for the use and benefit of the users and taxpayers of the District. The District is located in the City of Aurora, Adams County, Colorado. The District is a quasi-municipal political subdivision of the State of Colorado authorized to provide specialized services that the City of Aurora does not provide.

The District may incur a maximum debt of $100,000,000. The District may use any and all legally available revenues of the District, including ad valorem property tax revenues and specific ownership tax revenues, to repay such debt.

The District may assess a maximum mill levy of 50 mills (subject to adjustment for changes in the method of calculating assessed valuation or any constitutionally mandated tax credit, cut, or abatement on or after January 1, 2004) to repay such debt. 

The District must file an Annual Report with the Manager of the Office of Development Assistance of the City of Aurora Manager’s Office.

The District’s boundaries overlap with the boundaries of Adams County, City of Aurora, Regional Transportation District, Adams-Arapahoe School District 28-J, Urban Drainage and Flood Control District, and Urban Drainage South Platte.
