Abstract

As citizens, our daily lives are directly affected by local law. For example, many of us consider the speed limit (and whether we'll get caught exceeding it) as we drive to work each day, as well as the amount of property tax we pay each year. Given the immediate impact of local laws on residents, it seems counterintuitive that the body of local law is obscure and difficult to research. This article presents an overview of Colorado local government organization and the resources available to help researchers find law by and about local government.
