The attached ordinance is a supplemental appropriation to the LART Fund in the amount of $1,309,315 as shown in Exhibit A, as recommended by the LART Citizen Advisory Committee. At the November 2020 coordinated election, the City requested, and the voters approved, the retention and spending of all revenues received in 2019 and 2020, and the resetting of the revenue and spending limitations for 2021 based thereon. Revenue and spending limitations associated with TABOR apply to the LART Fund. Because of the passage of the ballot item, an amount of $1.175 million that had previously been set aside and reserved as unspendable due to TABOR revenue and spending limitations is now available for appropriation in 2021.
