(1) Whenever a county has acquired property for recreational purposes, as authorized in sections 29-7-101 to 29-7-104, C.R.S., such county may establish a recreation district. This district shall be composed of the unincorporated area benefited by the establishment of the proposed recreational facility, the boundaries to be designated by the board of county commissioners. If a county planning commission has been created in the county under the authority of part 1 of article 28 of this title, it is the duty of such planning commission, upon request from the board of county commissioners, to formulate a tentative plan for the formation of such recreation district. The plan shall include recommendations as to the area to be benefited and boundaries and powers of the district. Upon completion of the plan, the county planning commission shall certify such plan to the board of county commissioners.
(2) Before the creation of a recreation district, a hearing thereon shall be held by the board of county commissioners to ascertain the sentiment of residents of the area toward the establishment of such a district. Notice of the hearing, stating the time, place, date, and purpose of the hearing, and including a description of the proposed boundaries, shall be published once weekly for three consecutive weeks in a newspaper published and of general circulation in the county.
(3) After the hearing, the board of county commissioners, at any regularly scheduled meeting, may change, amend, reject, or adopt the plan formulated and certified by the county planning commission and by resolution create a recreation district.
