Natural Resources
Oil and gas are a part of life in Colorado. Our priority is to ensure buyers and residents have access to information so that they can make informed decisions.
For more information, please visit the town of Erie’s Oil & Gas Operations and the Colorado Oil & Gas Conservation Commission.
Metropolitan District
You are in a Metropolitan district called the Westerly Metropolitan District.
Metropolitan districts are political subdivisions of the State and impose property taxes to generate the revenue needed for funding the construction of infrastructure. In Colorado, property taxes are paid on the “assessed value” of a property. Residential property currently is assessed at 7.15 % of the actual value of a home (actual value is established by the County assessor).
