Resolution 2018-083 in Support of Ballot Issue 7D in Support of Colorado Mountain College Rhea Silverkorn,Administration Executive Summary: Colorado Mountain College(CMC)provides high quality, accessible and affordable higher education and job training for residents of Eagle County. CMC is a local community college supported by property tax revenues. CMC has placed issue 7D on the ballot as a counter measure to the statewide Gallagher Amendment, which unpredictably affects the amount of property tax able to be collected, even in good economic times. 7D would allow CMC to opt out of Gallagher and collect taxes at a steady and predictable rate, consistent with its Mill Levy. The Board of Commissioners, recognizing the value of this educational resource to our community and supporting the need to have a predictable and adequate amount of revenue in order to sustain quality educational services is passing a resolution in support of ballot issue 7D. Doris Dewton spoke. She was and advocate for the collage and had served as a Trustee for many years. Last year CMC suffered a$2.7 million reduction in their budget. The projected reduction under the Gallagher Amendment this year was estimated to be 6.1%and would cost the college another $3.8 million dollars. She urged the Board to support the resolution and do whatever possible to secure its passage. Pat Hammon, Veteran Service Officer for Eagle County spoke. She'd taught at CMC for many years and believed it was a community jewel. CMC supported veteran events and activities. She hoped that everyone would vote to support 7D. 2 10/23/2018 Commissioner Ryan expressed support for 7D. She understood the consequences of the Gallagher Amendment for Community Colleges and some of the other districts solely funded by property taxes. Commissioner McQueeney added her support and believed that CMC provided a service for those on a career path. Chairman Chandler-Henry believed the CMC shared the same mission as the county,to make the Eagle County a better place to live for all. She thanked Ms. Dewton for her leadership and expressed support as well. Commissioner McQueeney moved to approve the resolution supporting Ballot Issue 7D in support of Colorado Mountain College. Commissioner Ryan seconded the motion. The vote was declared unanimous. 2.
