The Cotton Ranch Metropolitan District ("District") was formed in 1994 and continues as a governmental entity, is a political subdivision of the State of Colorado, and a quasi-municipal corporation. It
has an elected Board of Directors consisting of five persons with staggered four year terms. Elections are in May of even-numbered years.
The primary purpose of the District was and is to finance infrastructure required by the Cotton Ranch Development, and to provide an ongoing institutional structure for the operation and maintenance of some of that infrastructure, primarily the Irrigation Water System.
The District is funded through a combination of property taxes levied on all properties within the community as well as water user fees.
Board meetings are generally held at 1:00 p.m. on the second Tuesday of February, May, July, September, and November at the offices of Robertson & Marchetti, P.C., 28 Second Street, Suite 213, Edwards, CO 81632. Meetings are open to the public and community members are encouraged to attend.
