State launches Colorado Property Tax Map as a central source to understand taxing jurisdictions and property tax rates
Governor Jared Polis, the Department of Local Affairs (DOLA) and the Governor’s Office of Information Technology (OIT) launched a new pilot Colorado Property Tax Map to offer Coloradans a centralized, accessible and reliable source to estimate property taxes and view statewide taxing jurisdictions and boundaries. This first-of-its-kind map aggregates data provided to the state by local governments and displays historical taxing, parcel and levy information in a way that has never been done, adding context and clarity to an often confusing subject. This map is launching just shy of a year since the landmark property tax deal last legislative session that helps save Coloradans money on their property taxes.

Colorado’s energy navigation web tool: making clean energy more accessible
In November 2024, the State of Colorado began developing a first-of-its-kind Energy Assistance and Equipment Incentive Screener Tool to take the guesswork out of navigating 500 different state and federal programs. This digital tool is designed to help Coloradans quickly identify the rebates, incentives, and bill assistance programs for which they may qualify by answering a few simple questions in 10 minutes or less.

Employee spotlight: Elevating accessibility across the state
OIT is leading the state’s efforts to make digital services more inclusive and accessible for Coloradans. Brian Stafford, Accessibility Consultant, is a big reason why Colorado has garnered national recognition.
