The meeting will begin with an 11:15 am social and business followed by the speakers’ presentations from 12 to 1 pm. The speakers will provide information about the climate and environmental bills that passed the 2024 Colorado Legislative Session which concludes on May 8. These bills are in the areas of agricultural tax credits, water quality, electric vehicle charging permitting reform, energy and carbon management regulation, wildfire mitigation and more.
