The Department has also created a Virtual Stakeholder Workgroup Guide that provides additional guidance for participants participating remotely.

The Department has prepared the following draft rules to aid in the process of soliciting public comments. The Department will also provide an agenda for the workgroup no later than one week before the workgroup meeting. If you have topics you would like the Department to discuss at the workgroup meeting, please email those topics to dor_taxrules@state.co.us by June 1, 2022 to be included in the agenda.

The Department would particularly appreciate information regarding how purchaser-initiated deliveries to a nearby store are fulfilled and welcomes input from the public regarding whether these transactions satisfy the definition of a “retail delivery” in section 43-4-218(2)(e), C.R.S., in light of those facts. Advance written comments on this topic are encouraged. You can submit written comments to dor_taxrules@state.co.us.

  • 39-21-116.5. Penalties for Officers of Members. The purpose of this amendment to the rule is to add the retail delivery fees imposed pursuant to sections 24-38.5-303, 25-7.5-103, 43-4-218, 43-4-805, 43-4-1203, and 43-4-1303, C.R.S., to the list of fees to which the penalty in section 39-21-116.5, C.R.S., applies.

  • 43-4-218. Retail Delivery Fees. The purpose of this rule is to set forth the manner in which retail delivery fees are collected, administered, and enforced.

What is a Stakeholder Workgroup?

A stakeholder workgroup is a forum for the Department to gather information from stakeholders for the development of new rules or for the revision of existing rules. Stakeholder workgroups occur in advance of a rulemaking hearing. The workgroup consists of individuals who have particular knowledge of the issues being discussed. The workgroup will play an active role in providing relevant information, opinions, and constructive feedback and suggestions.
