Denver7 researches viewer question about where money for DougCo. home rule special election is coming from
CASTLE ROCK, Colo. — Voters in Douglas County are less than a week away from a special election to determine whether or not to form a home rule charter commission.
Efforts to become a home rule county have been underway by the Board of Commissioners for months. Viewers are reaching out to Denver7 curious about how it's all being funded.
Barbara from Parker sent an email with questions about "who's behind the money?"
Commissioner George Teal said the special election is not costing taxpayers any money the board didn't already have set aside.
