Colorado HB1183 continues pet animal facility licensing by the commissioner of agriculture and implements recommendations from a 2025 sunset review.

Colorado HB1183 extends the commissioner of agriculture's function of licensing pet animal facilities for 15 years until 2041. The bill implements recommendations from the 2025 sunset review of the "Pet Animal Care and Facilities Act" (PACFA). It amends the PACFA's pet animal advisory committee membership structure, requiring the commissioner to appoint members on and after January 1, 2027. The bill also removes the current maximum fee amount for pet animal facility license application fees and permits the commissioner to establish the fee amount by rule.
