Municipal government
Colorado municipalities operate under one of five types of municipal governing authority.
Consolidated City and County
The City and County of Denver is the more populous of the two Consolidated City and County governments in the state of Colorado.
In the state of Colorado, only Denver and Broomfield have consolidated city and county governments:
- The City and County of Denver operates under Article XX, Section 4 of the Constitution of the State of Colorado; and Title 30, Article 11, Section 101 of the Colorado Revised Statutes. Denver has an elected Mayor and a City Council of 13 members with 11 members elected from council districts and two members elected at large.
- The City and County of Broomfield operates under Article XX, Sections 10-13 of the Constitution of the State of Colorado. Broomfield has an appointed City and County Manager, an elected mayor, and a city council of 11 members composed of the mayor and two members elected from each of five wards.
Home Rule Municipality
The city of Colorado Springs is the most populous Home Rule Municipality in the state of Colorado.Colorado has 61 cities and 35 towns that are Home Rule Municipalities:
- Colorado Home Rule Municipalities are self-governing under Article XX of the Constitution of the State of Colorado; Title 31, Article 1, Section 202 of the Colorado Revised Statutes; and the Home Rule Charter of each municipality. The Home Rule Charter determines the form of government. A Colorado Home Rule Municipality may declare itself to be either a city or a town.
Statutory City
The historic city of Leadville, pictured here in the mid 20th century, is a Statutory City.
Colorado has 12 Statutory Cities:
- Colorado Statutory Cities operate under Title 31, Article 1, Section 203 and Article 4, Section 100 or Section 200 of the Colorado Revised Statutes. Statutory Cities have an elected Mayor and a City Council composed of the Mayor and two members elected from each ward. A Statutory City may petition to reorganize as a Section 200 Statutory City with an appointed City Manager and a City Council with two members elected from each ward and one member elected at large. The Mayor may be the City Council member elected at large or the City Council may appoint a Mayor.
Statutory Town
The farming town of Paonia is a Statutory Town.Colorado has 160 Statutory Towns:
- Colorado Statutory Towns operate under Title 31, Article 1, Section 203 and Article 4, Part 3 of the Colorado Revised Statutes. Statutory Towns have an elected Mayor and a Board of Trustees composed of the Mayor and four or six additional members elected at large.
Territorial Charter Municipality
The historic town of Georgetown is the only Territorial Charter Municipality remaining in the state of Colorado.Georgetown is the only Colorado municipality that still operates under a charter from the Territory of Colorado:
- The Town of Georgetown operates under Article XIV, Section 13 of the Charter & Constitution of the Colorado Territory. The town mayor is called the Police Judge and the town council is called the Board of Selectmen.
Legal distinctions
Colorado law makes relatively few distinctions between a city and a town. In general, cities are more populous than towns, although the town of Castle Rock and the town of Parker have more than 45,000 residents each, while the City of Black Hawk has fewer than 120 residents.
The city of Central is the only remaining Colorado municipality that does not place its full place name at the end of its municipal name. The town of Garden City, the town of Lake City, the town of Orchard City, and the town of Sugar City are statutory towns despite the word city at the end of their name. The municipality of Creede uses the official title city of Creede despite its status as a Colorado statutory town.
Village and township are not civil divisions in the state of Colorado, although the city of Cherry Hills Village, the city of Greenwood Village, the town of Log Lane Village, the town of Mountain Village, and the town of Snowmass Village have the word Village at the end of their names. Several resort communities use the word Village to describe their central business district.
In the state of Colorado, a municipality may extend into multiple counties.
