Description
We have consolidated these three ballot title cases because they involve the same parties and all relate to the Rio Grande Water Conservation District. The petitioners are registered electors who brought these original proceedings pursuant to section 1-40-107(2), 1 C.R.S. (1997), to review the actions taken by the initiative title setting board (the Board) in fixing the title, ballot title and submission clause, and summary (collectively, "titles and summary") for: (1) a proposed constitutional amendment designated "1997-98 #105" (Payments by Conservation District to Public School Fund and School District Initiative) (No. 98SA226); (2) a proposed statutory amendment designated "1997-98 #102" (Board of Directors, Rio Grande Water Conservation District Initiative) (No. 98SA227); and (3) a proposed statutory amendment designated "1997-98 #103" (Refund to Taxpayers by Conservation District) (No. 98SA228). We hold that (1) the initiative designated "1997-98 #105" does not violate the single-subject requirement of the Colorado Constitution; and (2) the titles and summaries set for the three proposed initiatives are not unfair or misleading, and their fiscal impact statements are adequate. We therefore approve the action of the Board in all three cases.
