Where:  Denver Board of REALTORS® 
                4300 E. Warren Ave.

The Denver Board of REALTORS® Governmental Affairs Committee meets monthly to discuss Denver area governmental policies and actions which directly influence the transfer and leasing of real properties. Meetings are open and all members are welcome and encouraged to attend.

Objective

Governmental issues related to residential real estate are defined as policies and actions that would change private property rights and the value of real property, such as zoning, development, comprehensive plans, and infrastructure construction.

Purpose

To accomplish these objectives, the Denver Board has a Governmental Affairs Committee, comprised of bi-partisan volunteers who have knowledge and interest in governmental affairs issues affecting real estate. The Denver Board also retains the services of CRL Associates, a firm of consultants, researchers and lobbyists who specialize in governmental affairs. Together, CRL and the Governmental Affairs Committee:

• Monitor most of the municipalities within the Denver Metropolitan Area (Adams, Arapahoe, Denver, Jefferson, Douglas, and Boulder Counties);
• Report to the Board of Directors, any governmental actions proposed or implemented that would be advantageous or adverse to the transfer or leasing of residential real estate;
• Help draft policies when DBR takes positions on issues;
• Help raise funds for the Political Survival Fund (PSF); and,
• Interview candidates for local elections and recommend support and endorsement.
