Metropolitan District General Explanation

The NBC Metropolitan District is a Title 32 Special District that has been established for the purpose of financing and installing water, sanitation, street, safety protection, transportation, television relay and translation, and park and recreation improvements of the District; and all other improvements or services permitted by Article 1, Title 32, C.R.S. (collectively, the “Public Improvements and Services”), except as specifically limited by the Service Plan for the District approved by the Westminster City Council on March 20, 2000, as it may be amended from time to time (the “Service Plan”).

The Public Improvements and Services are for the use and benefit of the residents and taxpayers of the District. The District is located in the City of Westminster, Jefferson County, Colorado. The District is a quasi-municipal political subdivision of the State of Colorado authorized to provide specialized services that the City of Westminster and Jefferson County do not provide.

The District may incur a maximum debt of $30,000,000. The District may impose a mill levy on taxable property within its boundaries, and may use various other revenue sources authorized by law to repay such debt.

The District may assess a maximum mill levy of 50 mills, subject to adjustment for legislative changes in the ratio of actual valuation to assessed valuation occurring after the date of approval of the Service Plan, to repay such debt. 

The District must file an Annual Report to the City of Westminster Clerk.

The District’s boundaries overlap with the boundaries of Jefferson County; Moffat Tunnel Improvement District; Jefferson County R1 School District; Regional Transportation District; Urban Drainage & Flood Control District South Platte; Urban Drainage & Flood Control District; and City of Westminster.
