CO HB1292

Removes the requirement that the Colorado Resiliency Office operate "subject to available grant funding," allowing it to function with stable general fund support instead of relying solely on grants.

Appropriates $249,454 from the general fund for fiscal year 2019-20 to support the office, including 2.7 FTE positions and operating expenses.

Schedules the Colorado Resiliency Office for repeal on September 1, 2022, requiring legislative review before that date to determine whether to continue, modify, or discontinue the office.

The office, located within the Department of Local Affairs, coordinates long-term disaster recovery, connects communities with state and federal resources, and supports risk reduction efforts before and after disasters.

Declares the act necessary for immediate preservation of public peace, health, and safety due to the office's funding expiration on June 30, 2019.
