Pueblo is suing the state over school construction projects

PUEBLO, Colo. (KRDO) -- According to The Pueblo Chieftain, Pueblo will be joining four other Colorado cities in suing the state over a recent law that pertains to school construction projects.

The law restricts a city's authority to collect taxes on school construction projects. This includes the building materials used in these projects.

According to Pueblo Mayor, Nick Gradisar, the city could lose up to 4 million dollars in tax revenue.

The lawsuit has been filed in a Denver district court. Attorneys are hoping for a quick hearing since the law will go into effect on August 10, 2022.
