Gov. Jared Polis Appoints Commissioner Davis to Commission on Property Tax

On Tuesday, Dec. 5, Governor Jared Polis appointed Mesa County Commissioner Cody Davis to the Commission on Property Tax to serve as a county commissioner from the Western region.

"Taxation in Colorado has turned into a quagmire of different rules and exceptions," Mesa County Commissioner Cody Davis said. "It makes it unpredictable for taxpayers and unsustainable for local governments. We can do better. I look forward to serving the people of western Colorado on this task force, and I'm grateful for the Governor's trust in me." 

The Commission on Property Tax was created to study and recommend a property tax structure that protects property owners and residential tenants from rising property taxes while meeting the needs of governments that rely on property tax to pay for local services.
